Those of you who just need to bulk up a little bit, be freaking thankful. I have lived my entire life needing to slim down. And it ain't because I eat all the time. I normally eat one good meal a day with very little snacking in between, if at all. I constantly have to cut back, cut back, cut back. I would be so grateful for being able to go the other way for a damn change. Unfortunately, it's not gonna happen. I guarantee you that I could bulk up. Just eat a lot of protein like salmon, steak, hamburger and drink protein shakes and eat fruit and vegetable smoothies and you're going to bulk up. Now, don't get me wrong, I don't want to be really small framed because some of those guy genuinely have a very difficult time bulking, but if you're just slim and need to bulk, you're a lucky arsehole.

If someone can help me plan based on this info video be great:
1. I started losing fat a year ago along with weight training for the first time. Got down to a comfortable weight by February, then got impatient gaining muscle with a calorie surplus until the end of August. Just weent from 15% body fat back down to 10. 5% over the last few months.
Question(s): I'm ready to slowly gain muscle again. I don't want to make the same weight gain mistakes though. Can I eat at maintenance and expect to recomp the way Ryan describes? Or, will my year of lifting experience prevent that? Also, should I expect my weight to stay the same during a recomp, or do I want to see the number on the scale go up over the months? Thanks dudes.

Metabolism doesn't necessarily slow down as people age. Not significantly, anyway. Our lifestyle changes as we transition from youthful child/student athlete to working adults affects our metabolism. We go from constantly moving, playing, and even sleeping, to sitting at work, sitting at home, staying up way too late and using caffeine to replace sleep (and then slam meds or hormones to try and fall asleep as the caffeine burns off. All of those sedentary habits, combined with poor sleep and a system full of chemical cocktails leads to a slow and wonky metabolism. People blame age as an excuse to not do anything about it; but that's the culture we live in nowadays: everyone's a victim.

Use the calipers guys!
It's huge, especially for people like me who will hold onto a weight. It's very hard to tell since I always perceive myself as fat.
But man, when you see -oh, i actually have gained a bit of muscle, and my bodyfat percentage is down 2 points-, it makes you realize your work was actually not in vain. Even if that number on the scale doesn't budge, bringing that bodyfat number down is really a good feeling. just because you should all know: Unless you're new to training, it isn't easy to lose fat and gain muscle at the same time. and in the end, it's really fat were trying to lose.

I-ve watched a couple of your videos where you mention BMR, and I think I understand what that is, but haven-t got a clue as to how to -figure out- what mine is. I feel like you-re making more sense than a lot of other fitness/fat loss videos because I understand you can-t manage what you don-t measure. I just need more detail. I-m going to look, but if you don-t already have a video on how to figure out your BMR, I-d suggest that as a possible topic.

I'm struggling to get rid of my beer belly. Which is weird as I stopped drinking 16 years ago. I changed the food I was eating, chicken breast, fish, vegetables, oats, protein shake, but I was still drinking my 10 milky sweet cups of coffee a day. I think I'm seeing more gains now I limited myself to 2 not so milky not so sweet cups of coffee a day. Funny how its not just the food you eat but what you drink.

1. BMR
figure out maintenance calories and drop a couple hundred
2. Limit your diet
Pick three types of
-protein
-carbs
-fats
Build your meals around those
3. Track progress with scale and calpers
Make adjustments every three days, be honest and track and weight your food, and get at it! No one will do the work for you.

I have allergies on many foods and It is hard for me to find a diet that doesn't include particular foods. Then my friend sent me link to the website called Agoge Diet where I can get personalized meal plan only with food I select. My fitness journey has just started, what about you?

I am about halfway through the 30 day program. Wow it is awesome. I have been really soar in a good way from it. But I-m noticing now in the third week I-m not getting the same soreness or pump feeling. I have not let up on intensity at all. Any ideas why? Or is this normal?
