GOMAD nigger, pay attention now: you cut by removing as many carbs and fats as possible. and maintaining protein.
Oh wait, you're a GOMAD nigger who bulks with milk who cannot just remove fat and carbs from his diet because his diet is a fucking retarded baby shit where you keep drinking mommy's milk without having to count macros or cook it.
Stay fat, and retarded, 1 food / 1 braincell faggot.

Nope.

Natural Bodybuilders from ABA, INBA, & PNBA all actually trains 1X, 2X, 3X per week if they want recovery.

Mr Olympia and the Steroid Bodybuilding federations are a cope.

PPL is a meme for natural lifters who actually train hard.

I’m actually distressed that some of the most famous physiques, even dream physiques I’ve been chasing for years, are unattainable without PEDs/TRT
Like I’m really fucking upset currently.

>>76702371
Zyzz is acheivable natty, he just wanted to get there as quickly and easily as possible cos he's an arab and arabs have a very hard time gaining muscle and wanted to get started on the whole shagging ravesluts thing asap.

Hodge twins would require a lot more work and are both pretty fat now, since getting genuinely huge is hard to do while staying lean if you're not on PEDs.
Jeff Cavaliere is probs on PEDs too staying that lean all year round. His size is achievable natty, but he's unhealthily lean for long term.

I'm more annoyed at the lenses and video tricks youtubers use, and I don't even mean fitness influencers. I watch videos of parkour and diving athletes and some of them looked pretty jacked. One video they measured their arms for fun and the biggest arm was like just over 15 inches. In the videos you'd think they have to be 16 inches at least. Everything you see online is fake, even if it's not intentional.

Show me you're never gonna make it without admitting you're never gonna make it. And yes, PROPER swings are good enough cardio. Try the 10.000 swing kettlebell challenge. Although cardio is overrated imo, live a phisically active life in general, and don't worry about your "cardio".

Make sure you cook it with onions or you'll die.

George Hackenschmidt on diet:
>My experience has taught me that foodstuffs are of secondary importance. There are very strong people who are strict vegetarians, whilst others eat a good deal of meat... Every one should and can find out which diet best suits his constitution, and he should avoid all food which disagrees with it.

the truth is that fitness is very easy and fitness influencer/gurus/magazines keep searching for new stuff to do or not to do

>lift hard
>eat enough
>rest enough
if you do this you are 90% were you could be based on your genetics which sadly is the most important thing all together (ex and included roids)

so if you don't grow you either doing something wrong (or not for long enough) in these 3 things or you are already 90% where you could be based on your genetics

all that rest what diet exactly and what kind of rep and set routines for your maximum potential is literally a drop

>>76703556
if you were here 10 years ago you'd know that the meta was SS and adjacent programming. you can critique how effective it is for someone who just wants a better fizeek. but it's the furthest thing from contemporary science lifting that you can get
>run into brick wall on purpose on all big lifts, no deloads
>deload, then run into brick wall again but slower this time (texas method)
>pivot into ??? if you're not burnt out or injured by now
and that's unironically preferable to doing soience cable shit, it was never about optimal training it was always about learning how to lift hard

At the extreme ends, maybe, because of malnutrition. We're talking about if it's healthier to be a little sticc or a little thicc.

Should I break my fast now with some more eggs and tuna, or should I keep pushing and finish the 36 hours? I'm worried I'm missing out on gains if I don't eat during the "anabolic window"
I'm around 18-20% bodyfat

>Who is /fat/ for?
For pumpkin preppers 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.
Join our Fatty Contest: https://www.fattycontest.com/

>What do I do first?
1. Read https://physiqonomics.com/fat-loss/
2. Calculate your Body Fat Percentage: https://fitness.bizcalcs.com/Calculator.asp?Calc=Body-Fat-Navy
3. Calculate your TDEE: https://www.sailrabbit.com/bmr/
Remember to use bodyfat% and use Katch-McArdle Formula with sedentary settings or your TDEE will be too high.
4. Plan your weight loss: https://www.losertown.org/eats/cal.php
5. Track your nutrition with MyFitnessPal (better for packaged food), Cronometer (better for generic food/macros), LoseIt (great for both), or Waistline (FOSS).

>Now what?
Count calories, all of them.
Eat about 500-1000 less calories than your TDEE.

Add new exercises to your routine, up the weights, go for longer, more complex sessions, add new days. Go less, go more. Get a new gym outfit that makes you look super cool when you get a pump.

I've found the most important part to be the music I'm listening to. Find some new shit and give it a try instead of listening to your same old boring ass playlist. Or listen to something nostalgic that you haven't heard in a while. I'm currently listening to old anime openings from my childhood that I haven't heard it years and my energy and enjoyment is through the roof.
>>
If I get bored instead of not going I go and do 3 sets of 1 with as heavy weight as I can manage. The workout goes quick, and almost getting killed adds the excitement. Try to be bored under 460 lbs
