Forum: Losing Fat

ok heres the story i'm bulking at the moment but have become interested in a keto diet. is it possible to gain muscle mass on a keto diet? or is keto just for cutting? i heard that you can stay lean year round and gain muscle on a keto diet is this true? thanx

So I used to workout a lot. I lost 50lbs (230-180) by running a lot and doing weight training back when i was 17 in 2017. From then I’ve stayed in the 195-220 range. But in 2020 I hurt my leg really bad and was basically bedridden for 2020 and 2021. I now weigh 260 and the weight keeps piling on. I...

I will give a short explanation. I am frustrated for a few reasons, but it might be good to give a little insight on the whole thing. In January, I topped out at 208 pounds, and over 30 percent bf. That was the limit for me, so I began a journey starting with a 5 day fast, then into keto. I...

I’ve been going in circles since forever and i’ve had enough so i’m just gonna stick to a bulk or cut for months and stop switching between the two. (I hate the fat at my lower chest, is this just stubborn fat?) Age: 25 Weight: 83.8KG/ 184.7lbs Height: 5”11 https://ibb.co/3MQnp4Q...

Started at 135, gained weight to 165 and now I'm 156 after losing ~9lbs of fat My goal has always been to have a fit body (abs with some muscle), never been into hardcore bodybuilding or anything I would love to gain more muscle/strength in the future but right now my goal is getting a beach...

I cut from 20% bodyfat to 11-12ish. After upping my calories by 500-700, my hunger levels got UNLEASHED. Like, way worse than during the cut itself. I'm still eating clean, but It's crazy hard to stay within my macros. Like I could eat 4000+ calories in boiled carrots. How should i proceed? And how...

I was able to cut to 12.5% bodyfat but then tweaked my shoulder. Now I'm unable to do any upper body exercises while I rehab the shoulder (no chest, no back exercises) Is it possible to continue a cut by just lifting heavy leg days 2-3 times a week? Will the body still respond by cutting...

Hey guys. I'm 280 pounds and 28 years old. Ignore the age 52 lol. I have 2 25 pound dumbbells and a treadmill. I'm shy to go to the gym. What would be excesses I can do with the dumbbells to help lose some fat. Also a good treadmill time to do everyday?

Okay. May 23rd I started a 12 week PPLx2 per week program while on an 1800kcal/day cut. I'm 5'9", started at 184-185 lbs. Macros were fat 40g, Protein 158g and Carbs 203g. I've been at least 95% consistent with that and the few times I have gone over it's been in the 2000-2200 calorie range, no...

Hi everyone, I used to lurk on these threads back in 2009 when i started my weightloss journey and went from 315 to 170 in a little over a year. I mainly did cardio and trained for a marathon. Afterwards I went into weight training and left cardio on the back burner (only 1-2 a week for 30mins). I...

I’m 24 years old and started at 256 lbs at the beginning. I’ve always been more on the heavier side and I’m trying to completely reconstruct my body. I want to get cut. Like I said I started at 256 lbs and am now down to 206 lbs. I started by doing an intense fasting by only eating once a day when...

Just outfitting a home gym at the moment; my wife and I would both be using it with similar goals in mind (we both need to lose weight and bring down the bf%). We have a decent stationery bike already and I have a TV setup in with a space in front of it for doing kettlebell and cardio classes...

I have been working out for 8 months and have gained 15 kilograms. I take in 5000 calories a day. That sounds like a lot, but it's due to the 2300 calories from my mass gainer. I'm starting to see some fat in my belly (15.5%). How many calories do I need to take in to reach my goal? I take 2 doses...
