Anabolic diet question
Ok so I’ve done this diet before and switched off but want to get back on it. I enjoy eating fats and proteins and it worked well for me. My question is this. It recommends doing the maintenance phase first for 4 weeks and I’m trying to understand what the point of it is. Is it for someone who isn’t used to eating low carb high protein and fat? I’ve done this diet before and I’ve always eaten low carb anyway so would I be able to go right into the bulking phase or is there a specific reason for the maintenance phase?

Hi guys i have problem so i've been doing some real hard training 6x a week weights and soccer the problem is that i think i'm getting CNS fatigue.
Physically i feel fine.
But mentally i'm having some issues. I'm noticing i'm struggling to get to sleep. I'm also noticing my memory concentration and focus are horrible and i'm also feeling depressed (not sure if this is related as i'm always depressed). I also have trouble articulating myself.

How to cheat during bulk ?
No way to sugar coat this, I’ve just finished cutting, I’m at around 13% bf. Only thing I don’t understand is how I’ll cheat.
The way I did it during the cut is. 6 days eat Very clean at deficit, 1 day eat absolute junk, and a lot of it. But the idea was, I’ll just eat super clean and go on a higher deficit the next couple of days, and it turned out perfect.
Now I’m starting to bulk. So say my +500 Bulk is clean 3000 Cals. And that’s what I stick to strictly for 6 days, on the 7th day, where I will want to cheat, do I eat junk for 2500 or 3000? Junk for 2000? ( which would be deficit )
Lastly, on clean days, if I slipped a minor cheat in the diet ( couple of beers , which adds 400-600 cals of junk ) do I still aim for my +500 bulk , or do I keep the cals low since a lot of it will be turned to fat?
Thanks guys, I’m quite dedicated but also like to enjoy life and I want to get this correctly. P.s - age isn’t 50, the forum decided that for me . I’m 30.

Need help with diet
Hi everyone, so I recently got back in the gym. It's been difficult as I work an average of 12 to 14 hours a day with 10 hours off in between shifts. I drive ready mix trucks and work very odd hours. For instance, my clock in times for last week were 6:38 am, 6:34 am, 5:22 am, 4:12 am, 7:14 am, 12:16 am. I am having difficulty getting my macros in check. My macros for fat are constantly above 20 percent, my carbs are well below 50 percent but my protein intake is at or above 30 percent. Because I usually get home with less than 8 hours to get sleep before I have to get up for work, I tend to skip dinner. Please help me figure this out.
An example of one days diet is:
Breakfast
Scrambled Eggs- 1 whole egg 5 egg whites
Oatmeal- 3/4 cup
Lunch
Jasmine Rice
Meatloaf
Snacks
1 whole boiled egg, 2 boiled egg whites
Protein shake
Beef Jerky
Low-fat Cottage Cheese
Mango

Anyone feel like it's way too easy to lose muscle and lose progress?
I'm getting a little discouraged here. I am not able to make consistent gains due to financial instability and food instability.
Despite this I've been a competitive athlete most of my life (mostly of a caloric deficit growing up; family didn't understand nutrition at all).
Now I'm trying to make a career out of a CPT and I'm realizing that I can't really practice what I'm preaching.
I find that if I get tired and skip just one meal I lose a lot of muscle mass overnight. It actually offends me how quickly my body is willing to breakdown muscle if I get lazy with my cooking.
I figure, 'oh well I'm a little short on protein tonight, no big deal I'll eat right tomorrow' and I always do but it'll too late. Wake up at 2am starving with my whole upper body tingling feeling like I'm losing muscle. Of course too tired to get up and fry a chicken breast.
By morning I look in the mirror and I've shrunk. And I'm like 'man, this can't be happening. How am I going to lose this much progress just from skipping one meal?'
I've been eating 2.5-3chicken breasts and 3-4 cups of jasmine rice daily for bulking. With vegetables for micros, and an Algal oil supplement for fats.
My body likes low fat foods and honestly my natural bodyfat is like 25%-30% so I need to watch it or else I gain bodyfat real quick. Literally if I eat a couple eggs the next morning I got more belly fat than the day before and my abs fade slightly. Even eating like 2-3g of fat a day I've got a pouch of fat under my bellybutton that never disappears. In fact, if I skip meals and cut calories I lose all my muscle before that bellyfat starts to fade. And when it does, I start losing muscle real quick every day unless I eat enough to bulk again and that bellyfat pops right back to where it was before cutting every time. Often overnight.
I can't believe how easy it is to gain fat and lose muscle. It's actually offensive given all the time we put into training and all the money we put into food. Pisses me off.

People gaining significant weight on low calories?
Social media has what I consider a myth, and their stories are getting crazy to me. They often say not to count calories, that low calorie actually stalls or cause weight gain.
They have examples like one lady who logged her food, says she had 1200 calories a day, and gained 30 lbs. She claims all she did was switch the fat and carb macros, increased calories, and then lost all the weight.
Is this even physically possible? Are they lying? Are they tracking incorrectly? If it is really happening, can anyone explain why?
I've not been able to reproduce the said results, and I've been doing extremely low calories off and on for 16 years. I still lose weight no matter what in a deficit.

Refeeds
hello, I have a few questions about refeeds.
1. On a refeed day, do you bump calories up to maintenance, or slightly above?
2. I am currently dieting on 250 g carbs a day. Would a refeed day still be beneficial even though I am not eating low carb or carb cycling? I assume so since I’m still in a caloric deficit, which means my glycogen stores are still being depleted.
3. I know fructose is to be avoided on a refeed, but what about lactose?
Thanks in advance!

So, I have recently (3 weeks ago) started a deff. I am eating 2200 kcal per day, will post my diet below, but I have experienced a quite big loss in the gym in form of energy and strength. Today I had my first ever rep-to-failure, which was on an incline bench where I just couldnt do 6 reps of a weight I usually do 8 of.
My diet is 200g carbs ish, 80g fat and 180g protein.
I have 120g oats with 50g protein powder and 3 dlmilk and 12 g peanutbutter for breakfast.
- Here is the workout -
2 tortillas with 100g chicken each, tacosauce and veggies for lunch.
100g cottage cheese for snack.
An omelett made of 2dl egg whites and 1 whole egg with 50g turkey and mixed veggies n spices for dinner.
80g of popcorn as late evening snack.
100g cottage cheese PRE-bed meal.
Now, is there a problem with this? Why am I not getting a pump and why am I feeling more tired at the gym?

Opinion of minicuts?
I am around 190lbs 6 feet 20 percent body fat right now. I am on a lean bulk where I gain around 1 to 2 pounds at most monthly. I have been on a bulk for 14 months and I have gained 20-25 pounds in that period. I should be 200+lbs by summer this way. I am planning on bulking for a much longer time. But, I still do not want to look like a pig this summer. So, I was thinking of doing a minicut around may/june(want to finally hit that 100kg bench meanwhile). I know my body and it is just asking me to lose fat, I expect to lose 10+ in those 2 months. Opinions? Should I cut aggresively, should I take it slow? How are minicuts done?

Advice for a “skinny fat” hardgainer
Hello! I could use some advice. I’m 30 years old and have always been fairly skinny. I started working out regularly (basically for the first time) in September. I now go to the gym 4-5 times a week.
Since I’m trying to gain muscle mass, I’ve tried diligently to increase my calorie intake. For the first few weeks, for example, I added mass gain powder to a daily shake, but have since moved away from that and just use oats instead. I’ve started to see moderate changes and improvements with muscle definition ... but also some weight gain in my midsection/belly.
I’d consider myself a hardgainer who is simultaneously, and perhaps ironically, approaching “skinny fat.”
One of my challenges is that I have trouble hitting my daily calorie goal (2,750 calories) — at least in a healthy and productive way. I have a shake every morning with oats, whey protein, a banana, and creatine. Lunch is usually some mix of grains and protein. Same with dinner, though I’m better at adding veggies at dinner. All of which is to say I’m probably getting a sufficient amount of protein.
To be candid, I have come challenges eating certain foods due to texture or appetite issues. Lots of greens and starches that are conducive to a balanced diet, for instance, can be pretty texturally unappealing to me. And when I find food texture unappealing, it’s difficult for me to stomach it. Similarly, I struggle with occasional anxiety issues — and when that happens, my appetite is completely shot.
So, I could use advice on how to balance being an increasingly “skinny fat” hardgainer with certain dietary quirks. Any advice would be truly and greatly appreciated. Let me know if there’s any additional info I could share that would be helpful.

Tracking a slow bulk with weight fluctuations
Hi guys
Trying to do a slow bulk of about 0.5lbs a week.
I'm finding it hard to determine whether I'm eating too much or too less because my weight varies so much?!
For example I started the bulk on 1st January at 166lbs. I weighed 167lbs the next day and then was fluctuating between 167 and 168lbs for the next 2 weeks.
Then on the 20th of Jan I seemed to magically put on 3lbs overnight and I weighed 170lbs and it's been been fluctuating between 170 and 173lbs since then?!
I know it's likely water weight but I've no idea whether to increase or decrease I my calories at this point or to keeps the same. I've technically put on 6lbs in 28 days according to the scales.
I've been weighing myself at the same times everyday day in the same conditions and same scales so it's as consistent as possible
Help much appreciated
Trying to do a slow bulk of about 0.5lbs a week.
I'm finding it hard to determine whether I'm eating too much or too less because my weight varies so much?!
For example I started the bulk on 1st January at 166lbs. I weighed 167lbs the next day and then was fluctuating between 167 and 168lbs for the next 2 weeks.

Lost ball in the high weeds
Hello Everyone,
I have a goal to compete in a bikini competition late next year. I haven’t the foggiest idea of where to start other than nutrition is going to be a BIG focus for me. I have always heard 80% nutrition, 20% exercise. I’m wondering if I should ONLY focus on nutrition to begin. I have seen the calculators from other posts and my question is this:
I have 82lbs to lose. Should I focus solely on nutrition at this point or still incorporate exercise? Should I exercise daily or 2-3 days a week? I ask so I know how to set the calculator. Any guidance is appreciated!
Any advice beyond this is also welcome!!

Help understanding TEE and BMR!
Hi! New member here. I apologize if this is the wrong place but I was hoping someone could educate me on the difference between BMR and TEE? Recently, my gym was offering a free body fat analysis scan. I had it done and the results said I was 23.5% body fat and that my BMR was 1709 and my TEE was 2631. I've been working on getting in shape since April of last year with a focus on resistance training. I am still 40 lbs away from my weight loss goal and now that I have these new numbers, I am trying to figure out what I should be calculating my calorie deficit off of? My counter/fitness apps say between cardio and weight training that I am burning about 600 calories a day and I workout every day. I have been doing Weight Watchers but am really trying to understand the actual numbers and not just points. Thank you so much in advance for any help or insight anyone could offer on what would be a good daily calorie target and if I create a deficit from the BMR or TEE figure? Thank you!

honestly - how fast do you lose gains if you don't eat / train?
I was really happy with my physique about 3 weeks ago, but since then i haven't been eating much due to depression but also been doing a lot of physical activity.
I was at the gym yesterday and noticed i looked so skinny. Kinda made me sad. How quickly do you lose gains?
my strength actually hadn't gone down much maybe a touch so i'm assumng it's more an illusion/ just in my head
how fast do you actually lose size?

Eating more and body adjustment
So I have been eating way too low for about 8 years and hit a plateau hard. I have always eaten healthy and clean but not enough macros for my workout plan.
I am starting to see it in my body holding onto fat in certain places and my workouts being level or declining.
So I have decided to start counting the calories and trying to hit my macros on a 40/40/20 ratio.
I guess my question comes in on how long does it take your body to adjust to the new diet (more calories)? I am sure I will gain weight but when will the weight gain turn to muscle and my body start accepting the new more calorie plan?
I am a male and my weight has bounced from 155-160lbs. I was eating about 1800 calories a day very low carb and mostly protein. I work out 6 days a week, 20 minutes of running, and hour to an hour and a half lifting.
I have bumped up my calories to 2400 a day and trying to hit the 40/40/20 macro levels. I dont even know if 2400 is enough but i know it is more than i have had in the past and the carb increase is pretty large. Coming close to 200g / day vs maybe gettin 80 / day before.

High protein, low calorie diet
I do not know a whole lot about nutrition and I am just trying to find if there is any negative health effects of a high protein and low calorie diet.
For example,
I weigh 165lbs and in 1 day I ate a total of 1450 calories and 170g of protein. I didn’t count any other macros. I am trying to shred a little bit of fat but don’t want to lose muscle. I just want to make sure that a diet like this is safe and has no negative effects. Thank you to anyone who replies in advance!

Stalled weight gain
Hi All,
I'm seeing something odd on my bulk that I'm not sure I know how to explain.
Been trying to bulk cleanly this past year, shooting for 0.5lbs/week gain. I've tracked all my nutrition and recorded weight daily. For last 8months of data, my average has been 0.66lbs/week (332cal surplus). Pretty steady and predictable graph.
8 weeks ago, I made one small change. Removed 50g carbs and replaced with 50g protein. To bring my protein to 1g/lb (185g). Rest of diet stayed exactly the same. I eat the same meal-prepped meals every week.
Having done this, my weight gain has completely stalled. Trends over the last 6 weeks show I've put on 0.5lbs total, which is negligable.
I'm sure I'm missing something, but can't figure out why a 1 to 1 switch from carb-protein would change my rate of gain?

Macro Question (Too Much Protein?)
So based on a Macro Calculator I used my Macros are;
Fat: 64g
Carbs: 252.4g
Protein: 155.5g
I'm currently 5'11, 185lbs attempting to cut some weight.
My daily intake looks like this;
Fat: 44.6g
Carbs: 246g
Protein: 215g
Is eating this much protein hurting me in the long run?
You always hear "You can never have too much protein"
Just want to know if I'm hindering myself.
Also is being 20g behind on fat hurting my progress as well?
Thank you in advance.

Diet for 100 pushups, squats, situps a day.
Hi everybody,
Right now I still pretty much look like that photo to the left. My main goal is to lose my pointy tits l.
About 2 weeks ago I decided to start doing 100 pushups, squats, and situps a day. I know this isn't hardcore bodybuilding but it's better than the nothing I was doing before and I'm sticking tonit pretty well.
What I want to know is how much I should be eating. At first I started eating a lot less, but now I'm back to what I would consider a normal amount of food, but I've started eating more fruit as snacks.
Thanks

How many calories does weightlifting burn?
Hey so I tracked my calories yesterday because I want to go on a lean bulk (200-300 cals above maintenance) and yesterday I calculated 2750 calories thinking I'm above maintenance, keep in mind I worked out for around 1 hour, however I woke up a a lighter weight today of 67.2kg compared to 67.5kg. (Weighed around same time and after pissing/****ting).
I am really surpised that 2750 is below my maintenace even though I'm quite small (67kg 5'9). I'm thinking I need to go about 3000 calories for my lean bulk but I feel like it's going to be hard to consume those calories as healthy foods and I don't want to eat junk food.
How many calories do you think around 1 hour of weightlifting burns, with 2 min rest times between sets, I don't do any cardio.

need calorie counting tips
The calorie counting thing is where im heading for cutting... im using lyfsum
However im confused by a lot of things...
My height and weight are 6ft2 and 18 stone... so right off the bat im heavy but have made a lot of gains the past 2 years, however im not fat, my shoulders are much wider than my waist and my waist and stomach are pretty defined when water weight is dropped... but again I don't know my bmi so cant know for sure what my muscle to fat ratio is.
Then there is my exercise... I lift heavy every set... and do a lot of sets without rest.. I look at it as high intensity lifting.. sweat pouring etc... along with 15 mins light jogging and 15 mins of walks/sprints.
So calculating my exercise calories is going to be a bitch.
That's basically it... am I better trying the calorie counting or just mirror watching and upping lowering cardio as I see fit ?
thanking you.

Sample Meal Plan for Weightloss
Im new to meal prepping and am wondering if this sounds like a decent meal plan. I am a 20 year old 6ft male currently weighing in at 285lbs. I have been lifting weights 4x a week the last few weeks without dieting at all. I now plan to lift 3x a week and do cardio 2-4x per week and want to start watching my diet.
Breakfast - Avacado Toast (whole wheat bread) with Four Egg Whites
Snack - Healthy Trail Mix Recipe and Protein Shake
Lunch - Chicken Salad Sandwich (whole wheat)
Preworkout - Banana and Yogurt
Post - Protein, Skim Milk, Banana, Strawberries
Dinner - Chicken (6 oz), 1 cup Sweet Potatoes, 1 cup Broccoli
Bedtime Snack - 250ml Skim Milk
Breakfast - 408 Cal, 10g Fat, 53g Carb, 26g
Snack - 423 Cal, 12g Fat, 31g Carb, 30g
Lunch - 423 Cal, 17g Fat, 25g Carb, 51g

Dinner - 421 Cal, 6g Fat, 33g Carb, 57g
Bedtime Snack - 83 Cal, 0g Fat, 12g Carb, 8g
Totals - 2467 Cal, 63g Fat, 238g Carb, 224g Protein
My goal was to get 2440 calories so I'm just over. But my plan is to stick to this for this next week, then try adding different meals next week when i get more planned out. But does this seem like a safe plan to stick to or should i scrap it? My few concerns are: would eating 4 slices of bread a day end up being harmful? Should i be adding more fruit and vegetables? And is my protein intake enough? My goal was 242g of protein but I ended up being decently short of that. But any advice is much appreciated. Like I said I'm pretty new to this stuff.

What to eat before gym on a tight schedule
I'm 17 and in college and I head to the gym 3-4 times a week from Monday-Friday. Because of availability and facilities I use the gym at my college. Here are my gym schedules
Monday: 12:00 - 1:30pm
Tuesday: 4:00 -5.30pm
Wednesday - 3:00 - 4/5:00pm
Thursday: 12:00 -1:30pm / 2:00pm depending
Each starting time is when my class finishes, so I pack up and go straight there. The trouble is, especially with morning times, I don't always have a proper meal ready to eat to prevent getting fatigued. On Tuesdays/Wednesdays I normally take my own pre packed meal in with around 100g of carbs(macro not just a carb food) and 20g protein for pre workout and that gives me plenty of energy. Monday and Thursday I struggle because of times. I've heard that 2 bananas 90 minutes before workout gives you enough energy for 2 hours but out of experience that didn't seem to work too well.
I know people will say go to a different gym but because I am a student I only have to pay £25 for a one year membership at the college gym and the facilities are great, it even just got a 60k renovation before Christmas. I'm really tight on cash so it's the only option I have
What foods do you recommend to eat before a workout and how long before should I eat them? I train for strength so my workouts are pretty intense and I don't want to burn out after completing my first few sets
thanks

Measuring rice
I am sure this is a stupid question.
When you guys have cooked your rice and are going to weigh in your scale, lets say 100 gram. Do you write in 100 gram of COOKED rice in myfitnesspal or what?

Can I get some feedback and suggestions for my diet
I currently eat 2 meals a day.
Here’s 3 of the most common options per meal
Meal 1 (300-400 calories)
Tortellini
Buckwheat
Eggs and bread
Meal 2 (500-1000 calories)
Chicken breast with spinach
Cheeseburger
Shrimp
Also throughout the day
2 grain bars and 2 tablespoons of peanut butter (500 calories)
4 or 5 cups of organic whole milk (800/1000 calories)
Total: 2300-2900 calories
120-160 g protein
I weigh 150 lbs and according to calorie calculators I need 2500 calories a day to gain muscle, and most days I hit that target.
This diet is pretty flexible but the only thing I never change is the milk. I’ve always struggled to eat a lot but luckily I love milk and if I didn’t drink that much, there’s no way I would be able to get enough calories.
Also the reason why I only eat two meals is because I need a big gap between meals or else I can’t eat at all.
One thing I’m trying to change right now is maybe replace one or two cups of milk with something thats high in calories but low in fat, so any suggestions for that would be great too.

best ratio for water loss but maintaining full muscles.
I seem to be either at one side of the spectrum or the other... would like to keep the water retention at skin level lower whilst maintaining a fuller muscle look.
I know ratios aren't liked much on here,so even a …. per body fat would be ideal.
