They could both put like 20lbs of muscle on their frame they don't lift that hard because they think cardio is more important, outbox someone at 567 who started boxing 6 months ago and smokes weed and drinks to internalize combos. That's why muay Thai people are so smooth, brain gains and 5x a week sparring.

So does someone want to explain why more people don't drink fat free skim milk? It's literally milk without the cream. Why would you want to drink fat, fat boy?

>>74305504
It's not really the same. Once you remove the fat you have to add most of nutrition content back in the form of suppliments which are usually less avaliable. I drink a lot of skim as a source of protein but it's usually better to just opt for whole if you can afford the calories. Also something about skim, 1 and 2 % have some kind of correlation with cancer that for whatever reason whole does not have.

I always drink 1L skim before going to the gym.
Gives me more energy to train while cutting

Mark Rippetoe is correct about one thing, which is that linear progression is great for novices. This is really the only thing he gets fundamentally right, and he didn't invent that principle, he just successfully marketed it. Everything else, volume, assistance, training frequency, he is impressively able to get wrong every single time.

5x5 feels exhausting half the time so if I can make equal (or more) strength gains with 3x5 i'm all for it. Everybody wants to look good aesthetically but honestly my main concern is strength right now. Thanks for the answer.
>>
>>74304958
Both 3x5 and 5x5 are a kinda shit rep range for anyone but novices. 1-3rm is better for technique/neural factor. 4+x12 is better for actual muscle growth. Yes for myofibrillar hypertrophy too. Yes for strength too.

3x5 works well for novices because it's just enough for novice hypertrophy and novice tecnique/neural, while also letting you recover fast enough to hit same/higher weight next workout. 5x5 just stalls progress. Not enough volume/intensity to win over 3x5, but enough fatigue to stall.

Once you're out of novice, you should hit a muscle with above mentioned range once a week, plus as many sub 3 set workouts as is convenient.
>>
>>74305278
You can throw in power flys in addition to what I said earlier on bench days. Main thing about SS is to recover asap. Which is why you can train biceps as much as you want on it, but you can't train triceps with much volume, because they won't recover between bench and ohp, unless you actually know what you're doing, and then your ohp stalls.

Depending on how you do chins and rows, you can do lat isolation too - if your pullups are mostly teres major and rows mostly traps. Abs recover very fast so you can do them every workout with no problems.

3x5 is fine for both size and strength
>>74305542
>Both 3x5 and 5x5 are a kinda shit rep range for anyone but novices.
the opposite is true
more advanced lifters need to lower fatigue and increase motor unit recruitment in order for them to make any gains
3x5 is perfectly fine for isolation work even
>>
>>74305822
Literally nobody at the top level does 5 rep sets.
The motor unit recruitment is maximized with 1 rep sets. The injury rate at 1 rep sets is lower than 5 reps. Same for fatigue. 3x5 for isolation is the dumbest shit possible.

>modern medicine

lmao even

Psychology and most of psychiatry is a meme. The medicine is poo, makes you a soulless zombie and they don't even work most of the time to fix the problem because we do not understand yet how exactly the chemicals work in relation to these conditions (eg depression). But what is now well accepted is that dopamine and serotonin based models are at best extremely simplistic, most probably completely wrong.

Ps keep in mind psychiatrists literally tortured healthy people's brain by electrocution half a century ago to treat their homosexuality. That's science for you. Now they decided it's OK to take it up the ass but there's no lazy people anymore, or bad people, nothing. Assholes do not exist, they have some "disorder"

>Who is /fat/ for?
For Pudgy Piggies who are working towards a longer life and a better physique through meaningful hard-work, strategy, and dedication. This is not QTDDTOT, stick to questions on fat loss. Post height and weight when asking for advice.

this desu.
im going to be breaking a 72 hour fast today and have spent the last 24 hours reading old threads on here, plebbit and watching youtube trying to find the answer to the most optimal way of building muscle and losing fat, theres nothing people agree on. what there seems to be consensus on is what to break your fast with, protein.
but to get to where i need to be theres nothing.
i know from experience (and intuition) that for me long term, the most optimal eating plan for maintenance is a diet of fresh meat and vegetables, hardly rocket science. but for now im 12-15 pounds overweight with fuck all muscle, i know i have to start lifting again when im eating this week but whats the optimal diet ffs, dont sugar coat it
>>
>>74305764
Fasting is the fastest way to lose weight without amputation or surgery of other types. Your lifespan may be shortened (or lengthened) depending on what philosophy you follow, but if you're just doing CICO, go ahead and stop eating, you have nothing to lose you wouldn't lose on a standard-issue caloric restriction diet.
