Chick in the gym today wearing a tshirt - sweat is fat crying! I felt her pain!
Gramps - duuuude! I'm rooting for you (also) - whats wit da cheating?!![]()
I'm on trying to get to 8%-10% before my next cycle and every day is such a chore, eat right, exercise, measure food, repeat...
I'm not sure whether to admire you or consider you crazy. Or both. Single digit BF is crazy difficult.
I'll be ecstatic when I get to around 15 to 18% BF with no desire to go lower.
Life's too short to be miserable every day just because you want to look shredded!
:saroll:

AMEN Brother!
My thoughts exactly!
Can't imagine to run 5 miles every morning fasted, fight naked a wolverine in the snow and go at night to the gym, just to see a vein on my abs.
But I admire the guys who do, those abs are well deserved!
Just skip your next planned refeed and you are back on schedule. Not a game changer at this point.
Today was officially off.
Blowing my diet yesterday made me go to the gym anyway for self punishment.
Did one set on different machines with low weights -not to failure to get the blood flowing.
-12 min rowing machine max. level -lifefitness-
-10 minutes bicycle at 145 HR -lifefitness-
-10 minutes treadmill incline lv.16 -lifefitness-
3x 12 push ups, hands on a box (no pain in injured shoulder)
15 min shoulder rehab
Today diet in check, will eat 800kcal / mainly beef,eggs and salad in 2 hours when windows for peptide is closing.
-10 minutes treadmill incline lv.16 -lifefitness-
Could be different machines, I guess a zillion models exist.L SIXTEEN??? Do they measure levels differently there?
I about die on L8 incline, here. I'm pretty sure L16 would be vertical!
Could be different machines, I guess a zillion models exist.
Pretty steep, like uphill, did it at 3m/h and with 133 HR, almost touching front handles with chest
while walking.
Sounds painful. Ouch.

Nah. I had to choose between jogging -or go steep. Jogging is bad with my knees.
Maybe 28...What angle incline would you guess?
Here's a visual guide...

I'd estimate my L7 as about 12 to 15 degrees.
You misunderstand lol the 8%-10% is for bulking purposes only, want to be in the best condition possible to gain muscle.
DAANNNGG!
:shocked:
Thinking hard about it, my new guess is the inclination is just around 15 degree. Just did it again at lev.16 , got of the machine and looked from the side.
Noway near 28 LOL.
Well, that's better! I'm impressed that you admitted it!![]()
It surely felt like 28 though![]()
My last one was at 12% gained 6 pounds fat with 13 muscle, want to cut fat gain to half that this time and do another physique show.That's why we all are cutting... for the BULK!
Did bulk with 20+% BF before, it just don't work. You get bigger but also fatter, argh!

Ok - I get tired just READING this shizzzz - if you keep getting this done on minimal cals - you're gonna be the SHREDDER! Respect, bro!
Diet:
Saturday:
BBQ (mainly beef) , 3 shots of Vodka with coke zero. Total around 1700 kcal
Sunday
Leftovers from BBQ. Total around 1400 kcal
Ummm... maybe HIT4ME didn't explain well enough how the extremely low cal diet is supposed to work. Maybe he should run it through Google Translate for you?![]()
Ok, first things first. Hairygrandpa, KAPrice is hitting the facking sled! And you are stuffing your face still. You are almost 1 full week into your cut. Time to turn this ship around and crank up the motors.
Otherwise, Ima gonna blow you out of the water and KAPrice is going to do better and he didn't even commit. You may be old and hairy, but I expect better from you. You are going to be hungry, get over it or we will have to call you wimpygrandpa.
On the flip side, all the anabolic may be causing muscle gain, which hinders weight loss for obvious reasons.
You have amazing will power, I did so good all week and then this weekend I was like...Invalid Link RemovedDiet:

Oh boy.... My "very low cal diet" is turning into a recomp. Feeling leaner, harder and lighter but scale says otherwise.
I can only think the mk, trest, or both are effecting your hunger. With or without that calories deficiency is hard to keep up with, definitely add some HIIT cardio if you can.
At least you had a reasonIf it will make you feel any better, HG, my birthday took away last week's big loss, so you're safe (from me) for a bit.![]()
The scale is showing a huge weight gain, even though I kept cals under maintenance, thinking that water fluctuation is the culprit. Feeling tight and seeing favorable changes though.
At the end it's all about looking good naked, not what the scale says.
How much undigested food in your intestines is also a big factor on the scale. And you're right. How you look trumps how much you weigh every time. But I also think the scale is still a valuable indicator of progress -- just one of many, but still valuable.
I hate my scale -and I don't trust her. A few days ago the scale said: 98.8kg(217.8 lbs).... today....hold the horses: 103.5kg(228lbs). :blink:
Not one day I ate above 2000kcal. How is this even possible? Either there is a small child-sized dump stuck in my bowels -or water fluctuations.
Maybe I'm a sleep walker and eat in my sleep.... Gonna chain me to my bed from now on.
Water fluctuations - fa shaw - you're doing mk, right?
I have 3 scales just to drive myself crazy(er), but I always tell myself that as long as I'm doing everything right the scale doesn't matter. (it's a load of bull shizzel but maybe it'll work for you lmfao)
Taking your sarcasm while looking at your avatar pic does not make me feel better right now, LOL.Yeah, blame in on the MK!![]()
