Forum: Losing Fat

Hey everyone, After gaining 20+lbs over the last year due to pandemic lockdowns, I am fortunate enough to be able to work out again now. I am 50 yrs old, 6'2" and currently around 220lbs. My experience level is beginning-intermediate, with five or six years of experience behind me. I hope that...

I have a question that i kinda fear there is no real answer to. How do I figure out what I am burning caloricly during my workout? I dont think you can set a static amount like 185lb bench burns x calories per rep, as I can do reps of it no problem, but my buddy can do a 1 rep or maybe 2 reps for...

Hi all! Never posted before so I'll keep it short. I gained 50 plus pounds after spinal surgery 5 years ago and have become a complete mess.

Hey everyone, I'm 24 y/o, 6'0, and weigh 180 lbs. I go to the gym 5 days/week and follow a workout plan. I typically do cardio for 15 mins each day. Besides the 90 mins I spend at the gym, the rest of the day is pretty sedentary. I recently had my body fat measured and it was found to be 24%...

I used to go to the gym every day and train for 1-2 hours. Since COVID shut 24hr Fitness down, I haven't had a gym to go to besides an apartment gym I sneak into. I thought the time away from my gym would be a good time to bulk, so I started eating everything, sweets, tons of pasta, etc. I ended up...

I'm having this issue more frequently than I'd like: When doing long sessions of low intensity steady state cardio (either walking or recumbent bike), I'll feel my blood sugar really nosedive somewhere around 35-45 minutes in. I start to feel shaky and it's like all the strength goes out of my...

Hi guys! New guy here. I started working out August 2020 and when a good friend found out, he gave me a fantastic upper/lower 4 day split with one day of intense cardio. This completely changed my life. I'm extremely happy with the results I've been seeing. I have confidence to now...

I really let myself go these past 4 months because home workouts weren’t as satisfying as lifting weights at the gym. Stopped counting calories too. My biggest concern is the extra body fat I’m carrying. Can I get away with a harsh diet (like 1000-1500 calories under maintainance) without...

Hi, do any of you feel like you look bigger when you are leaner. Right now I am almost done with my bulk and I feel tiny. My BMI is almost 30 and my abs are still a little visible. I know I’m below 20% body fat but I’m probably not lower than 15% (probably around 16 or 17%) so I do have a decent...

Hey, finally hit my goal weight, and I’m going to transition into a cut. I’ve scaled back the calories and I figured out what my current maintenance calories are. My question is if I should stay at maintenance calories for a few weeks to a month, or if I should just jump right into a cut.
