The Official Gym & Fitness Thread

Eat as dirty as you want, as long as you don't pass your macros and calories. Omitting vitamins and minerals, macros are macros; your body can't tell the difference

 

I really should take the time and just calculate what all I eat in one day. It has to be pretty bad .

 

I'm trying to eat multiple meals a day since I just snack right now.. so I need to eat a little cleaner to fit that into my macros.

 

That's why I had to start tracking it. My gainz stalled on my bulks and my fat loss stalled on cuts. Now, everything runs smoothly

I eat about 85% clean

 

I use to eat what ever I felt like, and I was meeting good macros and shit, then I switched to a bit more healthy shit and my gains were better... But now I am on a real diet from someone who isn't a retard (me) and almost 8# in 3 months so far

It makes a difference if you eat real, whole, healthy, non processed bullshit foods...

 

anything is better than what I'm doing now lol

 

I've tried eating super clean stuff and it was just too expensive and I didn't get much from it. Now, I eat mostly clean with a few things that aren't so clean (Baked Lays and Coke) and I get good results. When I dirty bulked, I was gaining 2-3 lbs a week and getting strong as fuq, but was putting on a lot of fat (I ended up at 16% bf at the end of my bulk). Now, I strictly a clean bulk (eating maybe ~500 calories over maintenance, rather than 2000 calories over maintenance lol)

 

Well yeah everyone will get fat with 2k cals over...

What is your diet like now? You say "clean" and "strict" yet you have chips and soda, and you talk alot about alcohol and greasy foods on the weekend

 

What is liftness.....?

 

LIFTNESS!

 

Its like synergy for the gym

 

It's what I taught your mom the other night

 

1. 6 egg whites, 3 egg yellows, fiber bar

2. 1 can tuna, 2 pieces of wheat bread, 1 tbsp. mayo, baked lays, salad (spring mix, broccoli, carrots), 2 tbsp. balsamic vinaigrette, 1 tsp. olive oil

3. whole wheat pasta, pasta meat sauce, 97/3 ground turkey, 1 piece of wheat bread

4. 2 scoops ON, 1 tbsp. peanut butter

5. chicken, 1 red potato, 12 oz. Coke

6. Greek yogurt, cheese stick



Clean to me is the above. I don't need farm-raised chickens, hand-made bread from some hipster store, or crap like that. I eat whole foods, plain meats, raw vegetables, and a few other things that are processed. You don't have to eat like a hippie to get results. Look at Kodiak; that dude eats like a 400 lb fat kid with diabetes and is probably in the single digit body fat and is pretty jacked. I don't take it that far because I don't train hard enough to burn off the shit he eats. I eat moderately clean with some bad stuff. My cutting and bulking plan both work for me. If I can follow my cut 6 days a week and pig out and drink one day a week without gaining any fat back, I'm gonna do it! I successfully went from 140 to 205 dirty bulking and my bench went from 125 to 295 and my body fat only went from 10 to 16%. I'm currently cutting from 205 and am currently at 187 and about 13% body fat and can still bench 295, so I'd say my cutting diet is working just fine

 

No seriously.... we aren't a bunch of meat heads in here. We could at least keep the fitness image legit with a properly spelled title name

 

it's like 'fitness' (whatever that is) for bro's who lift

 

Well I'm no bro so...

 

Lol!!!

 

Way to make me feel phat
