The Official Gym & Fitness Thread

I'm thinking I have a weak core and is probably needs work. I would think working them out harder would cause growth thus making them pop out more through the fat? I could be wrong, I'm just thinking anatomically.

I def need to step up my cardio some more.

 

Here is your other picture you requested.



My legs have really no definition.. Maybe I store the fat there. I couldn't even manage a good picture really. I will tell you I work them though. For a living I climb 300ft straight up on a ladder 2-3 times a day, wearing at least 20# of safety equipment.

Monday's I deadlift
Wednesday I clean and jerk
Thursday I squat, leg press, lunges, calf raises, power clean, and other misc leg exercises.

They measure out to be 24" in the middle of the quad

 

Thats how big my quads are...yet my calves are like the size of a 11 year old girls

 

Got a deep tissue massage yesterday, man i am sore all over the place. never been this sore in my life.

 

What's your weight/height supraTT? I'd say you're 10-12%. you're pretty lean but need to build more muscle. Warmup with hanging leg raise every time you workout.....front squats and ab wheel roll outs will do the trick too!

Here's a good read!

Hit my macros yesterday

Should my calorie intake be in the 2000's if I'm trying to see abs?


Btw I hit the gym twice yesterday

 

Just depends on how much you're burning. I may be completely off with this 'macro' stuff but if you burn more calories than you take in, you're going to start losing fat. Granted youre eating right which definitely looks like you are

 

So, today, amongst the vast amounts of douche bags and tools at the college gym, some guy politely told me he'd spot me. Turns out ive been rounding my lower back went it felt like the whole time I was doing it correctly. I really appreciated he came up and told me let alone help me with my form. And i've been peaking on just about everything (deads were only lift not peaking and I did today basically) so I think I'm going to take a break on stronglifts. I think I might try upping the reps and see if that helps me increase weight. Not like 1000 reps but just a couple more per set. And keep the reps per sets and amounts of sets changing

I am 6'2" at 176# Super lanky I am trying to build muscle. My goal is #200. I started at 154# in april of 2012.

 

Been eating shit load of salty food lately and i have gone to my "H20 be gone" routine, 1 gallon distilled water a day + 1.5 gallon spring water.

 

I broke my ankle in the beginning of January, and it still fucking hurts like a bitch and I'm a baby and have yet to go back to the gym. It's been a steady diet of body weight resistance workouts that don't hurt my ankle for the last 2 months.

I was 330 lbs (6'1") and now I'm down to 187 or something like that. I do a keto diet.

Super easy.

 

You'll always get better results from quality vs quantity. Form really is everything.
