5 Secrets we don't want you to know about Losing Fat <<<{(LF CHAT)})>>>

[bullrider_IL]

Genuine question here. This was the first week when I hadn't worked out all week, and the first time I saw myself with no pump at all and off creatine. Honestly, I was a little disappointed because I've been working out consistently for almost a year, and the results were underwhelming at best.

I just seem to have no muscle mass whatsoever, and this is despite lifting pretty consistently. I get my protein in right, and while my lifts are improving, I do push myself. In the recent past, my lifts have increased more than they have before, mostly thanks to advice from the folks here. I do whole body compounds, hit my macros, and eat at a surplus.

To give some background, I did P90X from March through August, and started All Pro's in September. Did AP's at maintenance in September and October, and been on a bulk since about mid October. I mean, I've improved since March, but not significantly so.

So, what could I be doing wrong? Should I just give myself more time? Any pointers would be great, especially since I've been busting my ass at the gym for a long time now and I guess I expected something more.

Have you ever thought about going to Murray State? The weather is great, and the water is so fuarking anabolic.

[bullrider_IL]

I think Serp just dislikes those that lie about it. I don't think he actually cares about natty vs unnatty.

Making a joke yo

Just frustrated, I guess.

U mirin my no calf training?

Yes.

[moore93]

Better to press upward with ankles somewhat out during calf raises , or move up like a robot keeping ankles in and firm?

Hmm.

Hmm.

All 3. Toes in, center, and out. Get the full burn.

Took video camera to gym today for a form check, fuaaark I am skinny and weak looking

That feel when your knees wobble all over while squatting and you look like a broken marionette

I wasn't necessarily talking about the toe direction, but more so the ankle staying in during the rep.

Hmm.

Whatever feels best/burns the most/creates the most pump ect

Or you could do what Ammex said but if its not isolating the muscle as good as other movements I would mainly stick to what creates the best pump.

I don't think there is a right or wrong answer.

[Serpentarius]

Bro why are you so ****gy tho? That chick pound for pound is a million times stronger than you. She's got my respect.

Meanwhile Serp has mad respect for 300 pound greasy men that squat 1000 pounds. I don't even..

being dressed in that is nothing but trashy. I dont put women on a pedestal and oogle at them, but its no different from watching some fat dude try to get on a pole. The only reason why guys find that stuff attractive is because the pole is figurative to their manhood, so they get off on watching that stuff. Wouldnt hurt to put some clothes on since the whole point of that is to get stared at for having next to no clothes on.

[matman1813]

Are you sure you just don't like to look at women Serp?

I thought one of the main purposes of wearing skimpy clothing when that fit is to show off hard earned muscles? Not to mention, it's significantly more difficult to do something athletically in loose clothing than it is in minimal clothing that fits close to the body...kind of like swimmers and track athletes, it assists in optimal performance. I don't put women on a pedestal either (lol), but I'd much rather watch her than some fat guy jiggling around a pole....and that's coming from a straight female. Do not have a figurative pole to imagine her doing acrobatics on either, but still find it sexy how she's graceful and incredibly strong.

For all you know, she could be a great person...who cares how she dresses? I can find a lot more offensive things than a fit woman doing advanced calisthenics in bathing suit attire.

Hope everyone had a good week this week despite the tragedy around us. Good news, I lost 4lbs that I gained from falling off the wagon in the previous week. My next video will be up tomorrow. Does anyone from the LF section want a shoutout?

I think that's what I looked like when trying to do hack squats.

The new gig I've been interviewing for isn't too far from Newtown, CT. I was actually looking at houses around that neighborhood -- it's incredibly, incredibly shocking to hear about what happened. Unbelievably sad.

I have a lot of friends and family in that part of the country, and was so glad to hear they and their kids were alright.

[moore93]

Goodnight sweet Serp.
