The Official Stupid Question Thread: PART 3

@Mboux 2000 Cut at most 2-3 more lbs then go back to maintenance . I lost a lot of time myself chasing abs . I cut from 165 to 157 then maintained for 3-4 months then got down to 150 lbs. I can bench press 205 3 x 5 and shoulder press 120 for a triple . Guess what? At 150 lbs 10% bf my 6 pack isn't there. Calipers put me at 9.99% bf, scale puts me at that too. My waist is 76 cm and height 175 which means my waist is 43% of my height.. I have veins poping out of everywhere and still only a 4 pack in good light.. I am following kinobody's program now . Doing lean bulk hopefully I get to 165 by march..

There’s no doubt I had to cut first. I was so damn fat my belly was sticking out. Now I know I don’t have enough muscle to look amazing after the cut but I at least want to get rid of the rest of my fat

[needmoargains]

What's your waist ? Get your waist to 44-45% of your height . That should put you at 10-15% bf range.

If I’m underweight, will creatine help me gain weight and muscle or the only way is eating more? Bcuz I been trying to eat more but I rather find ways to increase my metabolism first so I don’t feel Naseaus all the time I try to eat as much as I can

im in the same boat as you. I am very underweight and been trying to eat alot but every morning i feel nauseous as **** and dont want to eat anything. Best way is to just do lots small meals throught the day
If you go to school like me, and if they let you eat in class, bring bars, or make yourself a breakfast smoothie with blended stuff that you want to eat.

Creatine will add water weight, but food will be what will add muscle. You will have to just condition yourself to constantly eating more. Not just binging one or two meals but consistently eating more throughout the day.

if you can't eat enough calories to gain weight, try doing less cardio, or cut back the workouts moderately. also make sure to get a solid 7-8 hours sleep every night

So I'm trying to gain weight, and I set myself the goal to gain 3/4 lbs a month. I've maybe gained 1 lb this month so far, should I try to get as much calories in the remaining 8 days so I still gain the 2/3 lbs I need? Or is this all going to be excessive fat that I don't need?

Gaining weight should be slow and steady.

In a month you can't expect to lose 5 pounds then suddenly gain 8 pounds and say that you bulked the entire month. Meaning it's important to do it consistently throughout the month.

Simply increase your calories by 100-200 and work from there.

Muscles and strength will only get you so far. Confidence, integrity, and being a good person in general get you much further.

Let's say that youre in a cutting Phase of 500 deficit. You stick to your diet throughout the week but as the weekend comes, your friends ask to eat out.

Questions:
1. Would you calculate calories from the food that you've eaten in the restaurant.

2. Do your macros matter on a day where you eat unhealthy but fill it in youre calories.

3. If you're supposed to have 170g of protein each day and you are only 100g for only one day that you are eating unhealthy, would this impact your muscles? Would you lose muscle?

One day does not mean much in the grand scheme of things. That pretty much answers all your questions.

1. Yes

2. Yes

3. No unless it became a habit, like the guy above said its a marathon not a sprint 1 day won't hurt your but multiple bad days will. Do it in moderation and you will be fine.

I am trying to cut off my body fat but I am pretty confused how to. Some people say make calorie deficient diet. Some people say fasting helps in cutting. Some people say eating less won’t help you,it will damage all your muscles.
Can someone suggest me how to cut of my body fat? And also how much calorie should I eat a day to cut fast?

Learn to count calories and track macros. Look up a TDEE calculator online. This won't be too accurate at first so adjust it. To lose a pound a week you have to be in a 500 caloric deficit a day. So if you -500 calories off your maintenance calories (what the TDEE calculator shows) and for a couple weeks you are only losing half a pound a week you do another -250 calories a day. Once you get to where you want (losing 1 pound a week for this example) then you are good to go. Also go to the nutrition section to learn from them.

17 as of Aug. 168cm , currently about 54 kg, was about 43kg before any training. training since April 2016. First 3-4 months of training was inconsistent. After that till now i have been working out consistently and since Aug 2017, i have not been improving on.. anything? i know my body well and if theres a slight change ill realise it. I have started to take note on my weight every week recently. Im worried any recommendations for me? Seems pretty obvious from my weight, i was fking skinny.

I'm just turning 18 at 6'4 and weigh 180 pounds. I would like to reach 210. Will this be enough calories and can I drink mass gainer?

It's a good place to start. Monitor your weight weekly and adjust calories accordingly.

I mean, what you say is obvious. Like im hoping that theres something else i might be missing out. Like recently I read about how Blood type O does not go well with Whey protein as other blood types. Long story short, Im a student in a Fitness training Course. i hope theres someone out there over here that is way ahead of me and give me adivse or notes i might be missing out

You are simply overanalyzing things.

i really dont think so. i started with u said when i first came in Fitness. With something so vague i didnt went thru things like uneven shoulders and hips which affected me in having tuneven muscles. I feel as though you might be finding me being rude to you but really, i just hope i can get some better advise that would help me in this "overanalyzing" and improve my overall performance. Thats y i even came to this website. Sorry if you feel offended of any sorts. erm yeah.
