    RULES:

    • NO SOURCE TALK. This is very important for a variety of what we hope are obvious reasons.
    • NO FIGHTING. Arguing and ridiculing others will only get your comment deleted. Constructive criticism only. Post anything that is on topic. This involves how cycles change close to competition prep, what has worked for you in the past, before/after cycle pictures, dietary changes with different compounds, etc.

    Photos included: please help with aesthetics/proportionality

    Posted: 21 Mar 2020 07:59 AM PDT

    Hi,

    I am working toward fixing my aesthetics and proportionality. I have big hips and a large abdominal area, so I think that I need to build up my chest, shoulders, and arms. Problem there is, my damn biceps. From some angles, they look way better than from others. In the photos you can see that sometimes they can look like my forearms, almost as though I've never stepped foot in a gym, and from others they can look developed. Can I ask for any help with my upper body, not just biceps, but overall in terms of developing proportionality and aesthetics?

    “Adrenal fatigue” and overtraining

    Posted: 21 Mar 2020 03:27 AM PDT

    Hi everyone,

    Over the years I have had a lot of psychological stress as well as working hard in the gym when I probably didn't need any additional stress. Due to this extra stress over the years, I believe it has taken a toll on my body.

    I have been living with symptoms of "adrenal fatigue" (I know it's technically not real) and overtraining for a long time:

    irritability -body aches trouble sleeping (waking every 2-3 hours) I don't know the last time I slept longer than 4 hours in a row. I also get up and go to the bathroom every time I wake up but I don't drink much before bed. -waking up sweaty -constantly exhausted and wanting to nap -depression / anxiety -resting heart rate higher than normal -lightheaded when Standing up among many others

    I can still make progress with my lifts but it trashes me. If i try a lower body taxing exercise I could be feeling extra beat up for days. Anything that raises my heart rate extra high (high rep lower body, farmers walks, etc) also will beat me up for days.

    I'm getting to the point where I'm starting to finally smarten up and realize I need to set my ego aside and get better. This sleep thing especially drives me crazy. I've been to many doctors and they've all said I'm fine besides my hormones being depleted due to the chronic stress and prescribing me antidepressants.

    Sorry for the long post but my question to you guys would be what kind of workouts (if any) can I complete during the week to at least keep my sanity while I try to really pull back on the training and get better? Frequency, Less taxing exercise examples, splits, etc? My routines are usually full body workouts 3 days a week and when I switch routines Up I switch to upper lower upper for 3 total days per week. I find it hard to work my legs without taxing myself but I know at this point it's about health and not gains for now.

    Anyone else ever deal with this?

    Thanks a lot for your help!!!

    Pandemic Workout help needed

    Posted: 21 Mar 2020 03:49 AM PDT

    So I am 17, and because of the virus I have taken up a body weight full body workout at home. So I have two different workouts that I stagger one day apart to give my muscles some rest, but I what I wanted to know was if doing cardio (jump rope) on my rest day would affect my recovery and whether or not I shouldn't do the cardio. Thank you for your help !

    Is this a good plan?

    Posted: 20 Mar 2020 11:27 PM PDT

    Im 20yo, 6'1 ft, 77kg, 14% bodyfat with a bit of stomach fat and a basic level of muscle, i am aiming for a lean physique with low body fat levels around 10%. My perceived plan for this is to cut, regardless of how scrawny I am (using intermittent fasting with cardio aswell) until I am at 70kg, once the belly fat is gone and my abs can be seen I plan to let go of the idea of bulking and cutting and remain on a very slight calorie surplus for the forseeable future as this will allow me to lift and build from the ground up and not mess with my bodies hormones, and have such a taxing effect on my metabolism. This will be very slow and gradual but i figure after two years i will have build at least a strong foundation for my physique. Is this a stable strategy? I know alot of you have much experience with this kind of thing. Lmk, thanks.

    Why do I look so falt in the morning

    Posted: 20 Mar 2020 11:10 PM PDT

    I look pretty flat in the morning, it's like all my muscles lost some volume. But later in the day I look normal again.
