-Overall muscular development is going to be greater if all calories are devoted to that singular purpose, also fat is likely to grow unless you get the exact right amount of calories.
If you keep a deficit, the fat your body burns will be used for energy and some of it will be used to maintain and grow new muscle.
If you keep a large deficit, it will impair growth too much.
-Nutrient timing is especially useful to your purposes.
My routine: hi protein all the time, low-glycemic carbs at breakfast, low-glycemic carb at lunch (or skip for a post-workout meal), higher-glycemic carbs post-workout (1-2 pieces of sugary fruit like banana, pineapple or combo), 3 hours later .5-1 piece of fruit or equivalent starch, and a fibrous starch 1-2 hours before sleep.
All hi-glycemic meals can me made lower by adding a fiber supplement. But, post-workout, I need the energy into my muscles as fast as possible.
I eat a low-glycemic starch (sweet potato, beans, etc) 2 hours before my workout if I think I'm running low.

Ahh right. Would love to know my exact number of calories.

I wont overdo the cardio but i do now believe it is becoming a necessity to control my fat gain.

I usually have some fast carbs in the morning and post workout also. I dont find that i feel much of a difference but ive read that it aids the muscles.

I didnt know that fibre dampened fast acting carbs... interesting.



As far as the chicken restraunts, mine was very expensive. £20 for 3 wings and a burger. Bet yours isnt that expensive lol. Pollos hermanos looked awesome in the show

Day 46

Pullback week was fun but its time to destroy my body again starting from tomorrow with legs. Cant wait for shoulders the day after... i am quivering with excitment!

Feels nice to incorporate cardio back into my workouts. Got some cutting nostalgia

On a less cheery note... clomid arrived. Hid it away in a dark place... i will do my utmost to leave it the fuck alone. Was pretty stupid ordering it because its my mysterious and sexy temptress from now until forever.

Thank you to all guys and gals contributing to my thread so far. I havr drawn much motivation and drive from you guys.

Sat for 7 hours trying to sort my computer. It was a bitch.

Anyway shoulders later on today, here we!

Hope everyone has a safe Tuesday

[hollowedzeus]

Life is just sort of a headache right now. Im trying my best to keep up training and eating but i just feel my life force draining.

I have a passive anger going on 24/7 and its making me pissed off.

Training is sort of meh at the moment and im tryong to eat as much as i can.

My appetite is 0 and i spend most of my days curled up in my room right now. Hopefully i snap out of this soon

[hollowedzeus]

Here is where im at the now. I see progress but its not enough to lift my mood

[hollowedzeus]

Choked so much food down my neck tonight.

HAd 2 chicken and rice meals within an hour and im going to have oats anf peanut butter right after before bed.

Need to keep my calories high

Tomorrow is another day.

[AKD_FitChick]

I need to get something to increase my appretite.

Im going to get b12 tabs if that doesnt do anything ill try the injectable. Anyone know how to get it? Is it an online kind of thing? Its easier to buy drugs than it is to find that online

[hollowedzeus]

Life is too short for trivial nonsense in our day to day lives. To anyone out there who is fighting with a parent or a child over something nonsensical, what if that was your last interaction with them? Life is short enough as it is but we can go at anytime.

Terror is on the rise and good people are getting removed from this world before their time. How many of those people had a disagreement with someone they never had a chance to rectify? How many of those people were living life to a sub standard, going through the motions and not enjoying life?

Anyone can check out at anytime due to unforseen circumstances.

Live your life the way you want to live it. Its your one and only so make it count.
Dont let anything interfere with the way you want to live. I know i have.


To everyone on the board. Keep safe dont leave with any regrets

Day 50

Had a nice clear headed day today. My mind is turning toxic. Overthinking everything with a 'why me?' Theme going on. Giving out my address to anyone would like to come slap the piss out of me to straighten up.

Had a good gym session today however i had some problems adding up 20kg plates. Was at it for a while... put 160kg on and i was sure it was 140kg... no matter. Stronger than i was before the pullback.

Chest was bursting out my skin today, it was glorious. During flies managed to push myself the furthest i ever have before... it just felt different. I was screaming internally. Was thinking about a post that marcus put up ages ago about him doing a set of shoulder press with his partner screaming at him to get one more rep. Really got me fired up.

Well You don't know me like some have, im going to recommend a very natural, safe, pharmacologicaly non-toxic substance that will guarantee you get an appetite, as well as help aid in recovery and restless sleep steroid use causes.

Im sure you can guess what it is.....?

[hammerheart]

I'm afraid he might be a tad too young for safe use of that, and won't help with his T issue either.

Ahh shit missed that. Im only a baboo. Correlation to testosterone ? Wasnt aware.

Nah never have or will. Im not a drug guy at all. No drugs no alcohol.

Except steroids . I can hardly contain my excitment to start those.

Day 51

Workout was fucking crazy tonight. Genuinly felt like my biceps were going to tear through my skin today. Was like a walking human boner with my pump. In the swing of it today. Getting shit done and getting food down me. Just had half a kilo of pasta post workout. Fighting the vomit back. All in all a nice relaxing day.

Last tricep exercise was just done for reps. My wrists were absolutly knackered. (Had wrist problems since 13/14) couldnt hold the bar in position at a heavy weight.

Arms are nice and sore today. Love it. No gym tonight however

[hollowedzeus]

Eyy lads. Had some conversations with my great grandfather today.

He was explaining a procedure that he undergoes monthly to save his retina and prevent blindness. He has to undergo an injection through to the back of his eyeball so the shit goes to his retina.


Fuuuuck that shit. Any fear of needles anyone has going into your arse or whatever is now put in perspective hopefully lol!

Godbless her man... thats absolutely horrendous. I could barely listen to him talking about it. He said he moved his eye one time with a needle in it... boke

[hollowedzeus]

Decided earlier on today to skip legs and get a takeaway.

Im now doing legs and skipping takeaway.

Nearly... nearly....

[Quester]

What's a takeaway?

[hollowedzeus]

What's a takeaway?

Scottish word for fast food. Like a chippy or a chinese lol. Or mcdonalds or kfc and such.

Basically all junk food really.

Always rather nice accompanied with chest pains for me immediedly after haha

[hollowedzeus]

Strange thoughts today.

Was looking at myself in the mirror today and was just thinking how i looked much better last week and how i look like shite today.

I also feel low today. Not going to moan this log is cluttered with me whining about things.

Basically what im trying to say is yhe mind can really play games with our perception.
Im sure if i woke up this morning being super dandy i would be making out with the mirror and thinking to myself what a fucking stud im going to be this evening.

Interesting stuff. Always assess progress with a clear head

[hollowedzeus]

Shoulders tonight. Going to be during peak time so fuck getting on any equipment. Going to need to be a full dumbell workout.

Might try the 36kg dumbells for the first time. See how i feel.

Hope everyone has a good tuesday

If its a cardio day I do cardio early and then by noon a few rips

As I lay in bed, 5-htp, mango, 2.5mg melatonin, 1 g cannabis

Lifting days it stays in the cupboard till bed time.

Off days , what the fuck is an off day....?

Lol

Just after real work is done. I used to be 24/7, but now I slowed down, it tears my head off so I reserve it for sleep o socialization
