Same here. I usually do about 15 min on the elliptical after a leg workout. Helps with soreness the next day

I'm going for ronnie sized guts. My plan is to get fat enough to make my calves grow. Protein farts are on point today, my dog left the room.

Gotta work those table muscles! But only on a "pull" day, as they never help push you away from the table

I'm going to try to lift today, my incision seems pretty well healed. Played soccer Friday night and late in the second half I tripped and rolled on THAT shoulder. Arm was a bit numb when we finished. At least the other guy was willing to stay in goal the whole game, because I KNEW I'd dive at some point.

Definitely have mentioned this before, I'm a bang for your buck kind of guy when it comes to buying protein. Just passing along the sale, but you can get 100 serving of Impact Whey Protein @ MyProtein for only $30 using code Tax20 at checkout. I've always been a fan of the brand since there isn't many fillers, I know exactly what I am getting. They also have a pleathora of flavors to choose from! Just bought a bag the other day, about to buy another just to take advantage of the sale

Thanks for the heads up, got the 11lb not sure how many servings that is. Guessing you were getting the 5lb for 30.

Yeah man, 11lbs would be the 200 serving guy. What flavor you end up going with? I usually stay plain jane and get the vanilla, but have chocolate caramel pretzel on the way and just ordered the glazed donut. Pumped to try both

^ can't go wrong, sure it'll be solid. Not the sweetest protein, but never been too big into sweet anyway. I usually just get something that goes well with peanut butter as I load my shakes up haha

Need some help brahs.

I'm 3 weeks into my bulk after cutting for 10 wks. I'm 5'10", started at 164 lbs and was at 166 lbs after the first two weeks. Past one week I'm suddenly at 169 lbs.

The only change to my diet from my cut has been adding morning oatmeal with 1 scoop whey and granola, along with a night-time protein shake with 1 scoop whey and oats. Of note, I've continued eating egg whites which while healthy in theory, probably aren't because I add different spices and seasonings to them. Probably has a bit of salt.

I don't know if this is just too much carbs/sugar/salt/calories, and the shake is right before bed too.

Also, bench stuck at 50 lbs on either side. I've always had issues adding mass to my chest. I can look good with a shirt on but without it my chest looks fked. Help me brahs...

Not sure I understand. If you can bench 50 lbs you dont need to bulk and cut. Being able to do some pushups should get you that much strength. If you're bulking why do you care if your weight went up.

Benching 145 seems low as hell. I can do some heavy lifts for other muscle groups but my chest has always been mediocre. I don't feel the chest aesthetics will come unless I start benching more.

I'm worried about weight because gaining it too fast on a bulk = chubby face. The first two weeks I was pleased but to suddenly see it shoot up 3 pounds in the last week is concerning. Maybe this is totally fine and I'm just fretting and need to be patient.

Yeah that's pretty low. Less than body weight. It's more about form and connection to the muscle though for growth, reps more important than moving weight. Try doing a million pushups a week and some ancillary moves to augment, triceps, shoulder, lats. If just starring out dont worry about bulking and cutting do the basics and get enough protein and clean carbs every day.

First don't add oats to your protein at night before you go to bed. Carbs are just going to turn into fat if not used right away. Also as far as lacking in the chest your back workouts also play a role in your chest development and strength. Especially your lats. Your lats really play a big part of your chest movements. Work in some dumbell chest exercises as you want your stabilizers to grow as well. How is your form? If it's not proper that could also be another thing to look at. Keep in mind it takes awhile to progress your strength. It doesn't happen over night or even weeks

The guys above hit on everything, you just gotta keep at it. I wouldn't worry about the weight aspect too much unless you start to see that you're putting on fat in unwanted areas. People tend to get hung up on that but it's just a number. For instance Tuesday last week I was 191, by Friday I was 198 without feeling much of a difference at all. Weight can fluctuate, it is what it is, what matters is eating health consciously while ensuring that you're getting enough nutrition to grow (if that's your goal).

Form, ancillary muscle developement, persistency.

Side note got the chocolate caramel pretzel protein flavor yesterday in the mail, didn't taste any caramel or pretzel but I did mix w/ peanut butter, still tasty tho.

I always wondered how that would taste? Did you use milk or water?
