Help in detail please.

So, I’m 5 2, 130! 27 waist. 37 hips. Female.
I want to lose a little bit more fat, but my main end goal is to gain lots of muscle mass! With that being said should I just continue to lift and increase the weight and eat more, and naturally the fat will come off? Or be on a calorie deficit, then go back to trying to get bigger. I’ve been stuck at 130. But once again I do want to lose more fat. Please advise!

Protein and Calories

Do you need to be taking in more calories to gain muscle mass or can you just take in enough protein and maintain a standard calorie intake for your size?
I currently am taking in 4000 calories on average a day with 160-200 grams of protein however would ideally like to drop the calorie intake maintain the high protein intake while still gaining size.
Thanks for any help!

Help with macro/calories for muscle gains

new to this so idk where I'm asking, but I am a female , 165cm and fluctuate from 57-60 kg constantly, I consume 1,200 calories a day sometimes more, but I do also count my macros - 125g protein, 37g fats, 70g carbs.
Now I have lost about 12kg almost over the span of 8 months and now have been weight training for two weeks, I still have quite a bit of chub to lose on my back, hips and tummy - thats all. I know for gains you need some sort of a caloric surplus but I am concerned if I increase my fat areas as I still have a lot to lose from them. do I keep on going until the fat is gone from these unwanted areas? or will the weight training ect compensate and balance out? I go to the gym about 5 times a week.
Thanks in advance.

Need your help guys

I greet you.
I need your help. I lost about 10 kg in a year, I currently have 176 cm and 65 kgs. I decided to keep a clean bulking, eating somewhere in 2700 calories. the problem is that I have gyno (I think), I would beg you to check my profile pictures.
Do you think it's a good idea to keep a clean bulking until May, then a hard month's cut? Currently, I think I have around 11-12% bf, even if I have that chest.
I'm waiting for your advice. thank you

So sonfused about where to start....

Hello All,

I have been trying to read articles and have severely confused myself! I am a 38 Y/O Male, 5'10" and 200lbs, around 28-29% BMI AKA FAT. For the last 2 weeks I have been dieting and doing about 30-40 mins of cardio a day, treadmill and biking. I am intergrading lifting into the routine starting Monday ( due to a shoulder injury which I am going to be cleared to lift ).

Here is my question, for the last 2 weeks I have only been taking in between 1400 and 1700 calories a day, of that I make sure im getting at least 100gr of protein. Is this too little??? am I shocking my system and setting myself up for failure? The reason I asking is I see a lot of guys saying its way too low and that you will burn a lot of muscle, however these are guys already in shape, and in their 20s.

Can someone help this middle aged guy not set himself up for failure?


thanks guys and gals,


Jason

got my IIFYM results, and...

Hey guys, fairly new lifter to the iron game. Did my due diligence getting form down on major lifts, finished a few months of Greyskull LP, transitioned to a PPL routine, feeling pretty good.

So, I'm trying to get more serious about my nutrition, and I've heard good things about IIFYM. Now I'm not really interested in eating a bunch of junk to hit my macros, but in terms of the overall macro calculations, I've heard good things; I thought, "hey, I'll adapt the numbers and eat cleaner. Badda bing, badda boom."

Well, I plugged everything in (listed training at 5-6 days a week, current weight 160, goal weight 185, etc.), and I got my numbers, and hmmm...do they seem right?

I'm not really bummed about eating more protein, that's easy for me. I'm not really bummed about the meh carb count, that's harder for me. I'm curious about the overall count. Does it seem legit?

Appreciate any insight you fine bros and broettes may have. Thanks ahead of time.

Question on losing progress when taking a gym break

So I just had a quick question and figured I’d throw this in the nutrition section since it probably applies to this category the most. I’m on month 5 of my cut about to finish up. Probably got about 3 weeks to another month left but I’ve been dealing with severe back pain/stiffness. Probably sciatica, no worries because I’m getting a diagnosis this weekend.

But I was wondering in the event that the doctors tell me I have to take a week or so off. Will I lose progression from my cut if I keep my cals at the same deficit. Keep in mind I am not a lifter, I’m simply a runner that’s just stripping the fat away to show abs, know it’s not what most people do on here but it’s my personal goals. So if I just take a break but keep my deficit the same I should be good ?

Meal timing studies?

I found this one, which shows that when total calories and total protein are held constant, the diet with protein spread evenly through the day results in 25% more muscle protein synthesis than the diet with protein concentrated at dinnertime. (P= 0.003) The gap even got a little wider after 7 days of habituation.

Dietary Protein Distribution Positively Influences 24-h Muscle Protein Synthesis in Healthy Adults

Abstract
The RDA for protein describes the quantity that should be consumed daily to meet population needs and to prevent deficiency. Protein consumption in many countries exceeds the RDA; however, intake is often skewed toward the evening meal, whereas breakfast is typically carbohydrate rich and low in protein. We examined the effects of protein distribution on 24-h skeletal muscle protein synthesis in healthy adult men and women (n= 8; age: 36.9 ± 3.1 y; BMI: 25.7 ± 0.8 kg/m2). By using a 7-d crossover feeding design with a 30-d washout period, we measured changes in muscle protein synthesis in response to isoenergetic and isonitrogenous diets with protein at breakfast, lunch, and dinner distributed evenly (EVEN; 31.5 ± 1.3, 29.9 ± 1.6, and 32.7 ± 1.6 g protein, respectively) or skewed (SKEW; 10.7 ± 0.8, 16.0 ± 0.5, and 63.4 ± 3.7 g protein, respectively). Over 24-h periods on days 1 and 7, venous blood samples and vastus lateralis muscle biopsy samples were obtained during primed (2.0 μmol/kg) constant infusion [0.06 μmol/(kg⋅min)] of L-[ring-13C6?]phenylalanine. The 24-h mixed muscle protein fractional synthesis rate was 25% higher in the EVEN (0.075 ± 0.006%/h) vs. the SKEW (0.056 ± 0.006%/h) protein distribution groups (P= 0.003). This pattern was maintained after 7 d of habituation to each diet (EVEN vs. SKEW: 0.077 ± 0.006 vs. 0.056 ± 0.006%/h; P= 0.001). The consumption of a moderate amount of protein at each meal stimulated 24-h muscle protein synthesis more effectively than skewing protein intake toward the evening meal.

Nutrition advice for people with Ulcerative Col itis

Hello,

I am trying to get back into weight training after essentially being out of it for about 2 years and am having trouble with supplementing the build while trying to manage Ulcerative Col itis. A quick history:

-Used to train daily
-Familiar with the popular supplements (whey protein, non-dairy protein, casein, creatine, etc.)
-Diagnosed with UC about 2 years ago (the timing of diagnosis and quitting training are not related)
-Used to weigh 175-180ish currently at 170

Apologies for dumping a ton of questions:

-How does one with UC go about taking in certain vitamins that are commonly contained in foods that are off limits (i.e. kale, brocolli, seeds, nuts, etc.)?
-How do you acquire the necessary calories to build the muscle? Is it just a matter of sticking to a bland diet?

Basically, since my return to the gym, I've been dealt a completely different body. It's like starting all over and having to relearn how it works. With so many foods off limits it's difficult to acquire the nutrition that I need.

I'm looking to hear from those with this disease and learn how they've reached their goals while managing it. I'm still open to others with sound advice and knowledge.

Also, sort of an unrelated question, do you take protein shakes on non lifting days as well or is it wasting it if you do?

Thanks in advance for those helping me out. I'm fairly new to the effects of this disease even though I've been diagnosed for 2 yrs. I didn't take it seriously and ate whatever I wanted until I had a really bad flare up a few months ago that kept me in the house for a week. Now, taking this disease more seriously, I have to figure out ways to work around it to make my goals happen.

Need some help with my diet

Hi guys. So I been doing prep meals for the last 2 months and is been working great. I've gained 4-5 kilos that is pretty mucho 8-11 lbs if i'm not wrong. I've been seeing results and for the first time I'm kinda motivated to keep on going. I just want the opinion of more experienced people. Also, this diet is something I've been researching and I understand that it could have a lot of flaws.

Here are my stats:

height: 6.0f or 1.80m
weight: 87 kilos or 190 pounds
I'm not sure what's my current body fat, but I'm sure is between 15 to 20%.

Here's my diet and example of what I eat during the week:

6:00 AM Protein shake :
1 scoop protein whey 28g of protein,
70g or 2 oz of greek yoghurt,
1 spoon peanut butter,
half cup of almond milk,
and fruit like strawberry or blueberry.

11:00 AM Chicken Wrap:
250g or 8oz of chicken,
lettuce, carrots and half avocado,
Whole wheat tortilla,

1:00 Aminos and workout.

2:00 - 2:30 post workout:
1 scoop protein weight with water.
250g or 8oz of meat,
2 cups of brown rice,
1 cup of veggies, black beans or broc****.

4:30 PM:
Peanut butter sandwich with whole grain bread and piece of fruit, usually apple or a banana.

6:00 PM Second workout:
no aminos just water. Usually I do abs or 1 group of muscle and run 20 min. (I tried to take another scoop of protein for some time but I didn't felt good afterwards, so I stopped doing that)

8:00 PM
Omelette, 5 eggs with tomato slices and 2oz or 5grams of cottage cheese.

Question about vegan diet

Hello guys,

I've watched a lot of documentaries recently that debunked the 'myth' that we need immense amounts of protein in order to gain muscle. These documentaries also discussed switching to a plant-based diet in order to reduce the risk of several harmful diseases I'm sure most of you are familiar with. There was a statement in the documentary that really sparked my interest. The statement made was that we do not need immense amounts of protein in order to gain muscle and said that we needed even less than 100g of protein a day (well it wasn't said directly but a Dr. in his mid 30's said that he needed about 50g of protein a day). Now this statement just threw all of my previous beliefs out of the window. So I asked myself if I was to switch to a plant-based diet and got all of my protein through plants, would that amount of protein be sufficient to build muscle? In other words do you guys agree with the statement being made (that we do not need immense amounts of protein from meat and dairy products, and can get sufficient amount of protein from plant-based foods?) I wanted to ask this question here specifically because I wanted to know if any of you had any experience building muscle through plant-based foods, AND can plant-based foods provide us with enough protein to BUILD muscle, or provide us with JUST ENOUGH protein to live a healthy lifestyle.

Please respond in a professional manner, I'm not here to debate if following a plant-based diet is good or bad. Only to answer if it is sufficient enough to build muscle, if I were to eat the proper plant-based foods.

Eating during exercise - what does 'science' say?

Hi guys,

I'm not a professional, so please bear with me here.

Taking a small meal of 350 kcal or a Whey-shake during my weightlifting does provide me with an extra boost (not sure if it's placebo or real).

I tried to Google without success: when doing this, what "happens" to my body? Is it good/bad for muscle recovery, weightloss etc. ?

I received pretty much all answers of good and bad while doing my own search - so I want to know that the studies say.

Thanks! :)

How do yall make your chicken taste good?

I've always had issues with making my chicken come out juicy.. it's always come out dry or over seasoned.

I found these 2 videos and I have to say.. chicken is coming out amazing now. Just need to find some good low cal sauces and maybe different seasonings. (Currently on RFL and eating 2 pounds of meat daily is getting tiring quick so I'm trying to change it up)

Calorie Deficit - Weight Loss

Hi,

Been a while since I've been here and I generally know what to do in order to lose weight (in that I've read the stickies and keep up with relevant threads here).

One question I had is regarding the daily/weekly calorie deficit in order to reach my goal: steady 0.5kg/1lbs per week weight loss.

I'm 6'3/1m91 and weigh roughly 140kg/300lbs. I've had good progress 1.5 years ago eating 2.400 kcals per day of which 80g fat minimum and 180g protein minimum.

Since I'm way overweight, I can probably go for a deeper deficit at first I reckon. I can eat down to 2.000-2.100 per day without jeopardizing my ability to stay consistent.

-> Is this correct?

A secondary thought I had is that I should probably bump up my protein a bit more. 1.5 years ago I found I could consistently eat about 180g per day from natural protein sources without changing my eating pattern to something I wouldn't be able to sustain/or something I dislike.

Thanks.

Is there such thing as an equal trade off between two meal items?

When looking at the nutritional breakdown between two meal items, can you equally substitute an item(s) for another and still continue to maintain and/or lose weight?

For example, let's say I dropped eating:
0.5 cup of cooked rice
and 6 oz plain cooked potatoes
On average, it's like 58g carbs on MFP

And instead, I started drinking a Starbucks espresso beverage:
Venti cafe mocha with soy milk and no whip cream = 58g carbs according to their nutrition on their website

Strictly going based the carb breakdown between those two meals, will swapping this or any other items that have close to an equivalent macro breakdown still be ok in terms of losing weight? Or will the actual ingredients itself in each meal contribute more to the weight loss? The reason why I ask this is simply because I do the above once in awhile. I haven't really noticed a huge difference until last week when I actually did gain a little weight.

12 Weeks Into Bulk - Roughly 11 Lb Gain

Hey y'all,

So its been 83 days since day 1 of my bulk and I have gained 11 pounds. Is this too much too quickly, too little, or right on track? I know the gain is supposed to be 0.5-1 lb per week, so based on that, it seems about right?

Lately I have been just trying to get calories in versus macro counting (which is easier for me during cuts). I probably eat in between a dirty and clean bulk (mostly eggs, avocado, whole wheat toast, olive oil, PBJS, pasta, sushi, steak, burgers, potatoes, burritos, cheese, protein shakes, milk). I'm trying to eat more veggies, I know I am bad at that lol.

Also, just started the Fierce 5 Bulk Program a week ago after a clueless trainer of mine had me using a wack workout routine. Anyways, would love to hear some feedback on the weight gain!

Rebooting your metabolism

What's going on my people I have a few questions regarding nutrition that I need some light shined on.

I'm 30 years old. I weight 217ish pounds with a 34 waist. Been working out a long time and can throw around somewhat impressive numbers in the gym. The size is there.

I've literally tried every diet. I've done keto, carb cycling, intermittent fast. I have achieved great results.

I just got married in October, but before my marriage I carb cycled super hard. I went from 215 down to 204. Now that I'm a few months into my marriage I have gained some weight back, but still lifting regularly.

I'm tired of carb cycling. I did some research and learned that if you consume low carb for a while you metabolism eventually slows down making it harder to loose fat. I watch a lot of youtubers i.e Pumpchasers,Christian Guzman, Bradley Martin, Mike Thurston and I have noticed these guys lose 1-2 pounds a week consuming 200+ carbs. Granted they are in a deficit and as they lose weight they go adjusting their calories.

So I decided to slowly start incorporating carbohydrates into my system to be able to be at a -500 caloric deficit eating with a 40/40/20 ratio. I'm 3 weeks into it.

Energy levels are amazing. Push/Pull legs heavy! Throwing 315 around on squats for 3x8. Feels great. My scale is only going up. I'm doing cardio. Mix of incline walking, HIIT, stair master. 4x a week. Changing it up daily.

Any idea if I'm doing this right? I've been getting great compliments on my size. Getting accused of roids (feels nice, but no way dude), but I don't feel comfortable seeing the scale go up.

Any advice is great! I apologize for the novel.

Adam

What are the affects of different types of sugars?

So i know of the different types of sugars e.g. fructose in fruit, sucrose, (table sugar) dextrose etc, but what do the different types of sugar actually do? Am I right in thinking that fructose should be avoided as it turns straight into fat instead of being used as energy? I'm pretty dumb on this subject so if someone could educate me I'd be very grateful

Bulking/cutting question

I’ve been lifting for ages and have remained at the same body weight for over a decade, partly because I’m happy with my weight but also because I’m new to the concept of bulking and cutting. I’m in the best shape of my life, but I think I’m still reasonably far from my max natural potential. Saw a picture of my cousin where he looked absolutely ripped. To my surprise, his training regimen is very basic compared to mine (though he is able to lift heavier weights) and he doesn’t even train legs. He said he is ripped because he cut over 40 lbs.

So I’ve been researching the topic of bulking/cutting and have concluded that it’s best to go slow to avoid excessive fat gain or muscle loss. However, it appears that bulking and cutting is usually a continuous cycle and I can’t seem to find the answer as to why... can anyone explain why you would need to repeat the cycle more than once or twice?

Pulsating muscles??(worm like effect)

Couldn't find the right category for this but I have a really weird thing going on throughout my life.

When I flex my muscles and hold it for more than 4-5 sec the muscle will start pulsating as if I had worms under my skin (almost as in movies where things are moving under the skin but not that extreme).

It only happens to my legs which is really weird.

When guys at the gym saw it they said I might be like Uzoma Obilor with his quirk with muscles.

When I finish my cut I will post a video (just finished bulking) , it's something I thought is normal until people kept wtf'ing me.

Is it related to my nutrition? I take multi vits , omega 3 , zinc , have a balanced diet and as I said I had this ever since I know.

Do any of you know anyone with a similar disease ?

Afraid of gaining weight

This may sound silly to a lot of people but i recently lost 7 stone and for the last 2 -3 weeks have been training (fierce 5) to gain muscle and strength.

I went from 17 stone 4lb to 10 stone 4 lb.

I had to program myself to eat super clean and super limited.

I am starting to eat a bit more. Training 3 times a week, am supplementing with BCAAs (which it seems are a waste of money from reading here. Bur i have them so may aswell use them) and also creatine monohydrate.

Now i havent weighed in a little while actually. But just did and almost had a heart attack when the scales said 10 stone 9lb.

I am not sure on my bodyfat % what would be the best way of getting that info?

Has the creatine caused me to hold that much water?
Am i just eating too much?
Or is this all still healthy.

Stats - Height 5 foot 5 inches.
Weight now - 10 stone 9lb (149lb)

Sorry if this all seems a bit silly. Im just changing my midsets from "lose all the weight" to "eat more and gain muscle".

Any help on all this is appreciated.

T1 Diabetes and Nutrition for Weightloss vs. Exercise

Hello. As you can see, I am a brand new member. I am 38 years old, 5'5", 231 lbs, 27% bodyfat, male living in Australia.

8 years ago, I got adult onset Type 1 diabetes (T1 is organ failure as opposed to T2 which is insulin resistence overweight people get). As a result of taking insulin, poor nutrition, and a sedentary lifestyle, I put on 71 lbs - and I was already overweight.

In 2016, some more really horrible things happened, and I needed to lose a lot of weight. I changed my diet, started going to the gym, and made a few other changes, and to date, I have lost 47 lbs.

I have really plateaued for the last six months. My bodyfat % has dripped by 15%, but now, no matter how hard I exercise, nothing changes.

I am really struggling with macronutrients given my medical condition (a keto diet will literally kill me) and I am naturally a fussy eater.

What resources regarding macronutrient composition for T1 diabetics who's goal is weightloss? I am finding this really complicated, and I don't know what to do.

I joined this site, I have picked Jim Stoppani's shortcut to shredded plan which I start this Saturday, but the diet scares the bejesus out of me.

Currently my daily intake includes:
Breakfast
Scrambled eggs in a tortilla (for carbs)

Lunch
A plate of vegetables which includes peas, pumpkin, carrots, and potato

Snacks
Daily usually 2 bananas and a pear or apple

Dinner
Half a cup of brown rice
2 cups of chicken
1 cup of greens
And 2-3 eggs

Workout wise, for the past 6 months, I have been doing a full body workout 3 times a week, which at the moment includes:
10 minutes stretching
45 minutes of complex heavy lifts
50 minutes of accessory exercises
And 20 minutes of HIIT at the end

I know there is a lot of information in this post, and I do not know if this is the right place to post this type of discussion (happy to move if required), however I would appreciate and resources or advice people could provide.

I feel like I am stuck at 231 lbs and 27% bodyfat, and no matter how hard I try, I cannot improve on this at all.

My Instagram is 'gopspaceranger' if you are interested in seeing some of my transformation pics, but I feel I am stuck, I know I am doing something wrong but I do not know what, and I would be grateful for any help you could provide.

I am happy to post pics when I figure out how to.

Thanks in advance.

Bulking with myfitnesspal

Hey all, I started bulking about 2 months ago, tracking my progress with my fitness pal.
I started with 73kg and now in 78kg. But I'm not entirely happy with the progress, when I started bulking, I measured body fat and muscle percentage etc, and I was 9% body fat, and 55% muscle (73kg). I did it again now after 2 months, and I'm 12% body fat, 52% muscle! (78kg) - There is a chance the machine wasn't working properly as I feel stronger and lifting more weights, but I don't see myself bigger but instead losing my abs.
What I'd like to know is to see if I'm bulking right, I set up as a goal in myfitnesspal to gain 0.2kg per week, and a goal weight of 80kg. And the app recommended the following:
3070 calories (50% carbs, 30% fat and 20% protein) - I also track my calories with my apple watch. There are days when I burn about 600 calories, so my question is do I have to recover those burned calories? do I have to eat 3070 + 600 calories to recover what I burned? That's what I'm doing as the app seems to suggest that, but I'm not sure I'm doing it right

thanks!

HFCS ok post workout?

So I know that sugar is actually beneficial postworkout as it restores muscle glycogen. In the protein powder I've started using it says it contains HFCS. Since I'm going to be taking this post workout and not any other times during the day, will this be acceptable, or maybe even more beneficial to muscle growth than regular sugar?

Hi All,

I have been in to fitness for a good bit of time however, I am just now getting into the process of counting my macros. I did a little research and found that My Macros+ app is supposed to work really well however, I'm not doing really well with it. Although that could be to user error :). I am also using receips off of BB.com and they do not have a serving size listed. The serving sizes listed are like 1 serving or 3 servings well what are they considering a serving? 1 cup? 4 pancakes? and so on... I am trying to set myself up for success and I want to put my best foot forward here. Any help on what apps might be best to use or any ideas on the serving size quetions would be greatly appreciated!

meal help

Hey, Im posting here in the hope of getting some information and new knowledge. When it comes to meal plans or just food in general I struggle a bit with what I should be eating , how much I should be eating and just when I should be eating so im hoping people can help me out.
when it comes to meals I try and do my best at eating healthy but im not always sure its right for my overall goals, my overall goals are to loose weight and loose fat around my belly and I want to start building muscle and get stronger. I am looking at workout routines to help me with this but I would like to also get the nutrition locked down as well so that I am not missing anything when I start my journey. Currently I weight 11 n a half stone at 4ft10 , being a teacher my day can be a bit over the place but I try and eat as healthy as possible but like I say im not sure what to have as sometime I have a quick lunch and need to have something that doesnt take long and I don't want to just go for a unhealthy quick alternative. currently I have a bran flake cereal for breakfast and usually I have a salmon or ham sandwich with a low calorie popcorn for lunch and my evening meal various from time to time.
I want to totally revamp what I am eating to help me with goals and I have no objection to meal prepping so that I have things for lunch but I don't just want to be eating the same old things u see like plain chicken plain rice n pasta etc but I do want to try and get the right amount of protein ,fats etc that my body needs, anything that I could make or have as a snack as well for those moments when my body is craving some sugar instead of just running for a unhealthy bad option . Also any supplements that people would recommend would also be great
so im looking for anyone who could point me in the right direction of meal plans I could check out and follow, anything really that will help me move in the right direction would be fantastic . Thanks in advance

Can you please tell me if my Leangains IF plan is ok? Any advice would be great

Hi guys

Im wondering if any of you can please help me with my Leangains IF (16/8) plan. Eating 12 (lunch) to 8pm. Fasting 8pm till 12 (lunch) daily.
I've done some research into what 'I' think I should be doing, but if you could point me in the right direction and tell me if there is anything I need to change, then that woud be great.

I will try to put as much information as possible, but if there is anything that I've missed, please tell me.

I've trained on and off for a number of years now. I usually just stick to the cardio, but this time I plan on stepping things up with the lifting in the gym and a combination of running 3 to 4 times a week (preferably not HIIT).

I have a little knowledge on the basis of things, but the science behind it all seems to get a little confusing. I tend to stick to researching people with science based facts.


Goal - To lose body fat and gain size. When I say size, Im aiming towards more of an athletic style look. But the more gains, the better.


I understand that it's going to take years, dedication and hard work to achieve results, but Im going to give it my best shot.


Gender - Male
Age - 35
Weight - 90kg or 198.4lbs or 14st 1bs
Height - 6ft 2" or 188cm

BMI- 25.2 (so classed as overwight)

Body Fat Percentage (Im unable to calculate this at present)

Macros (I've used the the FAT LOSS macro calculator on this site with moderate activity) - Carbs - 229g
Can you please tell me if this is the correct macros? protein - 229g
Fat - 51g

Calorie calculator (1lb a week) - 2290 calories/day
Im following my macros but I thought Id throw this one in there to)


Activity - Moderate exercise 4/5 times a week

Weightlifting - 3,4 or 5 times a week (It all depends how busy I am with work, but on average 4 times a week)
5 sets of 6-10 reps working different body groups each session and starting lowest weight first, gradually building
my weights up each set. I'll change my workout from time to time, so that my body doesn't adapt.

Running - 3 times a week at 4.5 miles (13.5 mies per week burning 2400 calories per week)
Walking - On a daily basis



Nutrition- closest to my daily macros as possible (I'll give you a GUIDELINE of what my diet consists of. Please tell me if if I'm missing anything out).

Drinking water/herbal tea ONLY (green tea or anything that takes my fancy) through out the day.
1 to 2 cups of tea/coffee with milk (during my none fasted period)

8am - 0.5l water
1/2tsp himalayan salt
1/2tsp cream of tartar
2tbsp apple cider vinegar

12 lunch - (As a high protein smoothie)
1 bannana
handful of kale
Chia seeds
Full fat greek yoghurt
Mixed nut blend
Whey protein
Mixed berry fruit
Nob of ginger


GYM - 1pm - 2pm

SNACK - Protein bar/whey shake with oats


4pm - Eggs
wholegrain Bread
Basil pesto
Vine tomatos
mixed leaf salad
Grated cheese (pecorino or a strong italian cheese)
Olive oil

SNACK - mixed unsalted nuts
70% cocao chocolate

8pm - Fish/Chicken
Broc****/mixed veg
Potatoes

SUPPLEMENTS -
Whey protein
Creatine
Cod Liver Oil



From what I've been researching, would it be better to miss out any carbs at lunch/pre workout? I was watching a youtube video with Jim Stoppani. Apparently it's better to train without carbs during a pre workout. Youtube - Jim Stoppani Intermitent Fasting

If you could let me know your thoughts, that would be great.

UK Government 5 A DAY Campaign

Is anyone able to critique this campaign?

5 a day essentially means 5 portions of a variety of fruits and vegetables per day. In other words: don't eat 5 bananas. Stick with one and then get the rest of the daily quota from other sources.

What counts as a portion also varies.

It takes 14 mushrooms (albeit smaller sized ones) to count as one portion.
2 handfuls of raspberries.
1/2 red pepper.
1 tomato.
8 spring onions.
4tsp green beans.
2 satsumas.
1 orange.
1 onion.
8 florets of cauliflower.
10 blackberries.

It has also been reported that if a person was to juice down their fruit and veg to make, say, a green smoothie, this would only be valid for ONE portion of 5 a day. It doesn't matter if he makes five smoothies, it only counts as one.

I am loathe to waste money on a multi-vitamin but how could true could it be that somehow 5 green smoothies "doesn't count." Perhaps they're referring to the different nutrient qualities found in various colored vegetables. Green, yellow, orange, purple, white and red.

From 6 meals back to 3

Anyone go from 6 meals a day back to 3 and notice any changes good or bad?

I’m not a competitive bodybuilder just a health conscious individual who lifts 4x a week.

I feel constant indigestion and discomfort on 6 meals a day. Switching back to 3 bigger meals seems to be helping.

I’m concerned what this will do to my physique though because I know it’s going to hurt protein absorption and retention.

Any feedback is appreciated.

Portion sizes???

Hey, looking to start eating clean for the first times in ages and im wondering how people measure their food?

So I'm thinking the diet will be basic and go like this:

Breakfast:
Oatmeal with banana and peanut butter and a protein shake

Lunch:
Chicken with rice and vegetables

Dinner:
Chicken/fish/beef with sweet potato and vegetables

What im wondering is what is a reasonable portion size for each item. I'm in the uk so I generally measure in grams.

I was thinking of just keeping it simple for meal prep and doing 100g for everything. I.e. 100g of oats in the morning then 100g chicken and 100g rice etc. I figure id just eyeball the veggies.

Also, healthy snack ideas would be welcome.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Building muscle on maintenance calories? (Based on training age and my situ..)

Hi all

Can I build muscle on maintenance calories in my particular situation? Many different people say many different things...

Here's a bit of context for my question:
- Last time I did any serious weight training before this period, was around 5 years ago.

- I've only been seriously resistance training again for the past 6 months. Only the last 3 have been progressively overloading my body and not just battering it every single time I train. I do resistance training for approx 45 min, 5 times a week. I train each muscle group twice to 3 times a week. I do HIIT training for 25 min twice a week. I take 1-2 full rest days a week.

- I was at a very low body fat % when I restarted weight training. Not exactly sure what, but extremely low.

- I weigh 57kgs, my height is 5'5, and I am female. :)

- I consume over 150g protein per day, from wholefoods mostly animal proteins.

- I am currently eating about 2100 calories a day. I WAS told to have a higher surplus, but this was by a coach who seems to [as I've found out from reading these forums] be going by stuff that was done in the 1990s, and also stuff that works on non-natural bodybuilders (most of his clients).

- I am 'natural' in terms of using steroids etc.. I supplement with creatine beta analine and l carnitine.

Based on these factors, do you think I can build muscle on maintenance calories rather than being in a surplus?

I guess I fit the 'beginner' to at *very* best intermediate trainee range. Some people say those in my situation need a HIGHER surplus to more experienced trainees in order to optimally build muscle, some people say my surplus could be lower than those more experienced. I've heard also I could even build in a deficit.

So which do you think is true? I'd ideally build on maintenance, and if my situation fits this, that'd be great. I'd like to build more muscle whilst avoiding fat gain.
