TL;DR
I gave myself an eating disorder bulking and cutting all the time. I can now no longer maintain a balanced weight with a steady diet.
Any ideas?
Full:
>Be lifelong athlete
>Cut and bulk based on season and sport, sometimes really light for bb and running, sometimes really heavy for power and strongman.
>Found a sport I like that is all year and requires no cut and bulk
>Coming off of power, so cut down to desired weight
>Eat balanced
>Regain the weight in weeks
>Eat in a small deficit, but still enough where it is not a cutting amount and I should have full energy
>Awful headaches all the time
>Back to cutting, no idea what to do after
Any ideas or suggestions?
Am I doomed to be seasawing for the rest of my life?

>eating disorder
More like dis eater ordering
>>
>>77397636
The closer you get to your peak performance the less advantageous large surpluses or deficits are. Your diet should reflect that. If you're year 3+ it doesn't have to be more than 100 kcal (realistically 300 because no one is that accurate). I personally can't do it and run even though I like running I can't eat enough to cover what running
+lifting costs on a regular basis.

No you didn't. You've never bulked or cut and you don't lift.

I genuinely enjoy eating until I’m so fucking stuffed that it’s almost physically painful. But u also enjoy being lean and having abs. I’m considering pigging out one day each week and fasting another day each week to balance it out. Is there any real reason I shouldn’t do this?

I do that too sometimes, but being honest, it's a really backwards and unhealthy way of managing your weight. On the days you binge, you are so stuffed and full you are too tired and bloated to be productive or do anything, and on days you fast you are also too hungry and tired to be productive. it's better to just eat a normal amount every day

For people who aren’t fat but aren’t skinny either, should they try to put on weight first then cut or just go straight to a cut? What’s the shortest route between a starting point like this and an impressive physique?

Don’t listen to any of these retards. Start working out immediately from the lowest set of weights you can handle and track your TDE without changing what you eat for the first week, then focus on replacing those calories with more balanced macros. You can add more calories once you start leaning up or capping out on reps/progression. That will last 3 weeks.
>>
>>77400371
This. Also, skinny people can still enjoy life (walk, do pullups, go to beach, be attratcive to women) but being fat sucks. Also, if you are lean, your nutient partitioning is way mor effective, such that even if you decide to lift and eat to grow, more "growth": will be muscle that fat.

That being said, you should be lifting during your cut - just be careful with your volume and frequency, since your recovery in a deficit will not be as good.

retarded low IQ question.

1. learn how to lift r/t anatomy and physiology
2. perfect ur techniques
3. actually grow muscle
4. then decide bulk or cut
>>
>>77400371
Absolutely wrong
Run an LP like SS or SL plus accessories and cardio to intermediate THEN cut
You'll lose what miniscule muscle you have cutting first and most people will fuck around for years cutting to some misconceived weight when they could just cut for a couple months later with wayyyyyyyy better results
I am NOT saying they should get fat, they just 100% FOR SURE should NOT cut first

>Are veggies really that important for building muscle?
Vitamins, minerals, and bioactive compounds found in vegetables are vital when it comes to natural hormone development, which is essential for fast muscle growth and recovery.

They're also very rich in fiber which are more satiating then the quick carbs you normally eat.

File: bloat.jpg (148 KB, 1069x712)

Bros, I've been troubleshooting my bloating for 6 years.
Today, I think I might have discovered something.

Backstory:
I was feeling bloated as always. My BMI to bloat ratio is a little worse than pic related. All I ate was potato and homemade meatballs.
In desperation, I drank water, rested, walked, ate fiber, drank more water, but all I felt was a soothing with no bloating reduction.
Up to this point, my doctor's done an edoscopy, gastroscopy, feces and blood tests, visceral fat investigation using results from an unrelated MRI, I've done it all. As of the past 20 days, I've considered SIBO and been taking a Berberine regiment.

Just now, what happened:
I'm laying in bed bros, bloated from the potato and wanting to KYS. I'm eating a slice of freshly baked levain, simply for the relief.
I put the laptop aside and think about a cunt.
My hands wrap around my neck as I close my eyes and my body enter some natural contracted ab crunch position, as I'm meditating.
The first thing I notice: my gut starts working, and it feels incredible.
>wat
I eat the last bite of the levain while in the ab crunch position. The bread lands like medicine in my stomach, and I hear gurglings for the first time in hours.

except pulling on my neck and crunching because I had my back rested on two pillows
That position and closing my eyes as I meditated

I just ate a big breakfast. 4 eggs. 4 slices of brown bread with cheese. 1,5 cups of lactose free yoghurt with olive oil and lemon juice. Activating my upper abs constantly, not a crunch just activation, and whereas previously I'd be bloated and suffer from food coma, right now I'm just gooning in bed.

I think all diffuse symptoms might've been caused a lack of activation in my upper abs in particular. I feel pressure against my stomach right now, it wants to bloat and ferment but I'm not letting it, and it's forced to work.
Crunching gives even more relief.
It's wild desu
>>
Been flexing my abs for 24 hours now total. Farting pretty routinely. Feeling fantastic in terms of bloat.

Today I ate: 4 eggs, 4 slices of brown bread with cheese, lots of yoghurt with olive oil, potatoes and carrots for breakfast, steak and 3 big potatoes for dinner, 3 slices of toasted brown bread with nutella as late night snack. I have 0 bloating right now, activating my abs constantly. I fart often. I burp. I've also not taken a shit yet. No bloating and no shit (yet). My poop is being processed normally.
It's actually quite wild if this turns out to be the issue.
It caused so many diffuse symptoms, including OSA, and I've gotten a CPAP because of it. I haven't been able to make gains because of nutritional malabsorption and poor recovery.

If I've uncovered how to activate your gut, I might write a book about this

Todays training went pretty well. Did some light reverse lunges, lat and front raises, and 45 degree back extensions. Nothing much else to report. Isos still cooking me at 30 seconds, need to drop the weight I think if I am trying to recover in 3-4 minutes between sets. I feel like it should not take me 7 minutes to recover from doing a 30 second paused RDL at the bottom of the knee around 50% of my max deadlift. Going to drop to ~15 seconds at some point on some for better strength gains. Powershitting is a lifestyle choice.
