    Of course it is probably water. However, the body does gain (and lose) in a very sporadic manner. I often see people stuck at a weight for a while, then they wake up one day multiple pounds lighter...

    Whether to opt for split training vs a total body split is really more a matter whether you prefer to train 3 vs 4 days per week. If 3, then whole body may be best. If you can and would like to...

    my quick take is this: you need more "real food" and less supplements. Supplements are great, but they are meant to do just that... supplement the food you're eating, not replace it. :)

    Whether you count calories or macros is really a matter of semantics. I do NOT count calories. I find it easier (and more precise) to focus on consuming the right amount of protein, carbs, and fat....

    Both will work, but I'd opt for liquid in this case as it will probably be cheaper (it costs more to make something into pills or put in capsules) and less chance of any gastric irritation. Plus...

    You could either get a v-handle (parallel grip) attachment, OR row the bar by grabbing it with one hand each time - like a DB row. I'd opt for purchasing the handle.

    I 2nd the hanging leg raises and reverse crunches - THESE more directly target your lower abs.

    When returning back from a layoff it's completely normal to be weaker and have less endurance. But, it seems that it's endurance that suffers the most.

    Two of my favs are skull crushers for triceps and standing, alternating DB curls for biceps. I'd put EZ bar curls a close 2nd for bi's and v-bar pushdowns next for triceps.
