The idea that protein is bad for the kidneys is a common misconception. There are people with existing kidney conditions that are advised to limit their protein intake - but that is not the same as...

He can't do it anyway because of equipment.

But reading between the lines, he isn't talking about specific injuries, more like the soreness response from training for the first time - probably too...

I am not clear over what period of time you gained 3kg but it sounds like you need to eat more - and eat plenty of healthy fats - that will probably sort out any hormonal issues.

What about stopping training without stopping supplements? Or vica versa. Training could be putting you into a calorie deficit which is causing stress. So could reducing carbs.

I doubt it's anything to do with creatine. And it would be very obvious to you if you were really overtraining, not many people actually do, especially if they think it's "not that intense".

Not if you are trying to gain weight - that will just burn off extra calories unnecessarily.

You can do something like All Pros routine with just a barbell.

Usually when people say 'conditioning' they mean cardiovascular training. But that doesn't seem to be what you want.

I understand the issue - you need to be more robust to injury. Part of it is...

Body recomp can be inefficient and can actually take longer than bulk and cut. Just remember that 'bulk' doesn't mean piling the weight on unless you are very skinny and underweight, it's more like a...

You likely will not get there in one phase. If you want to be around 195lbs, you might never get enough muscle (as a natural) to look lean. You probably need to set your target weight lower. More...

Looks like textbook slow weight gain OP.

I do find it harder to control weight gain. If I decide to cut which I hate doing, I get into a 'mode' where I am just eating roughly the same each day and...

Just from google: foods rich in potassium: potatoes, sweet potatoes, avocados, turkey, dried apricots, leafy greens, dried peas and beans

Fits with my general advice to aim for meat, eggs,...

Are you dieting? Being in a calorie deficit can affect your mood negatively. Or perhaps you are in need of a deload.

Not sure what you want us to do. If she won't listen to a doctor, why would she listen to randoms from the internet?

I take creatine and I'm pretty confident it's not harmful in any way. That's...

Eat the foods that provide your body with the nutrients you need - but reduce total calories consumed so that you are in a deficit.

Keto is not magic and certainly not worth missing out important...

If you have a log of your bodyweight and calorie intakes, you can judge your daily energy needs from that. Every 1lb lost means that you burned 3500 calories more than you ate in that time. Bear in...

Actually it's not clear how important frequency is.

It's suggested that you train a bodypart more than once a week because that would be too long to wait. However, there are many other factors...

Yes, it's a reasonable rule of thumb and it should be the same for anyone not just men. It's not precise and assumes that the weight lost is pure fat which it obviously isn't going to be. There is...

Better to ask this in the main losing fat or nutrition forum. Also read the sticky threads there.

Don't use drugs, it's not necessary and we can't talk about them here in any case - because of...

Calculators often don't work properly for heavier people because they make bad assumptions about your body composition and about how metabolism scales with weight.

The only real way to do it is by...
