I've very fortunately been blessed with a fast metabolism, so as long as I'm working out daily and not eating pints of ice cream every night along with other crap like chips and pizzas I lose weight pretty easily. If I fast while still drinking water I lose 2-4 lbs in 24 hours. Like I mentioned in the first post, the only other time I've done P90X with the full diet I went from 203 to 178 while getting noticeably bigger. At least an inch on biceps, bigger shoulders, chest, and legs. I figure I put on 10 lbs of muscle at least. So simple math would suggest I lost ~35 lbs of fat when I lost 25 lbs the first time I did the workouts along with the diet. That absolutely blew my mind because I wasn't completely disgusting-looking at 203. |

That makes sense to me. As long as you are hitting 10 sets per muscle group per week with somewhere in the range of 6-12 reps and being close to failure you are doing enough. More is better, but there are diminishing returns especially if you are going over 20 sets per week.

Go to the 22:00 min mark in this video and start listening and you will realize pretty much everything you believe about carbs and fat is wrong along with many long held beliefs in what types of diets and training burn more fat etc....
Its fairly technical and I've re-listened to many parts of it but I find it fascinating. Dr. Galpin trains a lot of profession athletes along a wide spectrum of sports along with teaching at Cal State Fullerton. Edit: It does however explain why so many different types of diets and exercise programs are effective. Last edited by Marcellus; 04-13-2023 at 09:28 AM.. |

I fast about 18 hours and exercise (moderately) daily. I have lost about 14 pounds in the last 2 months.
hasn't been too bad. Moderation in what I eat, has made a big impact, I believe.

I've been using semaglutide since february to curb cravings while in caloric deficit. It's made it easy to not snack between meals....I feel full after eating for a long time. Its working well, abs are in after letting things go too far last fall.
Anyone else use it? I really like it. I've had zero sides other than a bit of nausea when I was first figuring out my dose.

Ironically I was both a friend and my client was former champion Franco Santoriello from Toms River. We grew up together. He went through a real bad period with drugs and is now born-again. He was only like 5' 7" but had one of the greatest symmetrical physiques in bodybuilding history.

Been feeling like a beast lately, just hit 315 on squats 2x. Bench is a little weak, hit 285 for one rep and 365 on deadlifts. I switched from long bar to hex bar while doing deadlifts now. Not worth the injury and pain.
Was able to throw up 90lb dummy’s for some incline press, so hit the 100 lb club hopefully this month, but I’m taking it very slow.

I went to a personal trainer that specializes in power/strongman lifting and got form dialed in perfectly. Once that happened it actually reduced a significant hip and lower back pain I was going through. |

I just bought the supplement Taurine. Total of 100 capsules of 1000mgs. One per day.
Supposed to be great for nerves, heart, brain and bones. Extending life of animals by 10%+ in clinical tests with no side effects. Will see what happens. Hopefully my dick doesn't shrivel up or stay limp.

Many also extend too far back thrusting hips forward at the top of the lift. Good way to destroy lower back. Mixed grip is also not a great idea. Puts your shoulders in an uneven position which can lead to injury as well. This guy has some really good tutorials on lifting and proper form. |
