  1. When they say hitting a muscle twice in one week do they mean...

    My concern isn't over training, I'm trying to hit everything twice a week for growth and was wondering if this would be considered twice a week for optimal growth. When it says hitting a muscle twice a week is it saying hitting in twice in a prescribed 7 day period or within 7 days of hitting...
  2. When they say hitting a muscle twice in one week do they mean...

    Do they mean hitting it again a week after originally working that muscle or twice just in a 7 day period? For example if my split was like Monday: chest Tuesday: back Wednesday: legs Thursday: arms and shoulders Friday: rest Saturday chest Sunday: back The next Monday: legs Tuesday: arms and...
  3. Morning hiit?

    Awesome! So the apple/protein before hand isn't necessary? I'm thinking about doing just the protein at least to be on the safe side unless it would only hinder results?
  4. Morning hiit?

    I'm almost through with my cut and I'm down to the last 5 or so pounds and was thinking about changing my hiit to the morning. I was thinking about doing a protein shake and like an apple and drink bcaas throughout the session but am afraid of any muscle loss. Would I lose muscle by doing my...
  5. Should i take a week off?

    Just a little update: I decided to take the whole month of February to stop tracking calories and what not and just eat when hungry ("clean" foods of course). It's been awesome, took pictures at the two week mark and no difference in terms of fat, but my lifts are through the roof. Today I maxed...

  9. Should i take a week off?

    Planned on taking measurements tomorrow, what areas should i measure?
  10. Should i take a week off?

    That makes a lot more sense, thanks! I'm guessing keep my lifting at 3 x a week and keep my hiit at 3 x a week as well?
  11. Should i take a week off?

    so you're saying the 500 jump is not significant enough to cause fat gain?
  12. Should i take a week off?

    i just don't want to ruin what I've accomplished so far! I'll just suck it up and do it though
  13. Should i take a week off?

    okay I'll just jump to 2,300. How long will it take my metabolism to come back up to speed? The only concern is fat gain by just jumping up 500 calories
  14. Should i take a week off?

    But I'm wanting the abs before summer time. I used to be fairly fat and this is the only summer I will have ever been in good shape so I'm just wanting to make it happen then clean bulk after summer.
  15. Should i take a week off?

    So basically I can't rely on the scale while Doing this... Any other ways to measure progress besides pictures? I'll post pictures every week so you guys can tell if there's a difference but I'll aim for 2,300 calories a day (or just lifting days?)
  16. Should i take a week off?

    alright then, this whole thing seems really odd about increasing calories but thank you for all of your help!
  17. Should i take a week off?

    and you are sure not to do some reverse dieting like 100 calories a day? I read that a jump up to 2,300 could result in potential fat gain
  18. Should i take a week off?

    Thinking of changing up my workout some more too since I will have more energy. Thoughts on doing antagonist work (chest&back day, arms/shoulders day, legs day) or any other ideas for upping the intensity/fat burn during my workout?
  19. Should i take a week off?

    alright I'll run with it and see where I end up, I guess worst comes to worst I end up maintaining my current weight
  20. Should i take a week off?

    I'm going to move back up to 2,300 calories which is about my tdee, and I only started integrating cardio last week. I'm just a tad skeptical that raising my calories up could fix my issue
