| For people who walk their dogs, what exercises do you do in the meantime? Posted: 08 Aug 2020 10:26 AM PDT I walk my dog everyday for about an hour and didn't want the time to go to waste. So I got a backpack with some weights in it and do weighted walking and farmers walk. Is there any other good options out there? What do you guys do? [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 09 Aug 2020 02:15 AM PDT Is there a specific amount of set or reps you need to follow for certain exercises or is it personal preference? [link] [comments] |

| Side lateral raises: low sets high frequency vs. high sets low frequency? Posted: 08 Aug 2020 09:51 PM PDT I'm a 6mo beginner on the Reddit PPL routine, and I want to focus on shoulder hypertrophy, particularly the side delts (v-taper). It's just not where I want it to be at all. Will doing a small number of sets (2) of side raises every workout (6x a week) be equivalent or superior to doing more sets (5) twice a week? The former is easier and allows me to focus better on targeting the side delt, plus with more frequency (12 sets vs 10 sets). However I would never hit form failure with low sets, which might be a major factor in shoulder hypertrophy. Thanks! [link] [comments] |
| How to find maintenance calories? Posted: 09 Aug 2020 04:06 AM PDT So I lost 100+ lbs since February this year I was on 1300-1500 calorie diet. Im getting close to my weight goal and want to start getting stronger in my lifts, and having more energy in general. However I don't want to fall in to the trap of eating "for energy" and getting fat again but also do not want to be in too much of a caloric deficit to where my body is not performing optimally. Some people say to "reverse diet" but it seems kinda dumb. How do you even add 50-100 kcals everyday accurately? I weigh everything I eat and eat the same thing everyday and even then I believe the calories are +/- 75 kcals due to over/under estimating or the inaccuracy of measurements, differences in products and label values etc. Tl;dr How do I find out how much more I can eat without getting fat?

| Posted: 08 Aug 2020 11:29 PM PDT I bulked up but got to fat I'm over 12 stone so gonna have to cut a stone to get to like 12% bodyfat. Probably at 20% now. However I'm worried I'll look like a stick. I feel even at 12 stone I'm skinny end of things so was happy with the weight despite my belly. But decided gonna do it proper and gain muscle slowly and stay lean. [link] [comments] |
| What is the lowest recommended caloric intake for males? Posted: 09 Aug 2020 02:51 AM PDT I've read on this subreddit that it is 1500 for males and that going lower is unhealthy . I am a small guy at 165cm and 55.4kg. My tdee at maintenance is roughly at 1700. If I want to do a 500 caloric deficit that would mean 1200 calories a day which might be unhealthy. So do I go with 1200 a day or cap it at 1500! Thanks [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 09 Aug 2020 02:23 AM PDT I'm looking for an app that would help with doing sprint interval training. E.g. I know of the App Seconds which allows me to set a varying interval based on time. i.e. 10 seconds run, 10 seconds walk, 20 seconds run, 20 seconds walk and so on However I want to do training where it would go: - 100 meters run - 100 meters walk -200 meters run -200 meters walk and so on I don't have an athletics track near by so am looking for an app that can measure distance and then sound an alarm and then start measuring the next distance and then sound an alarm. Anyone know a solution to this? I also have a fitbit and want to know how to make the most out of it. Thanks [link] [comments] |
| What do you guys think of full body mwf and cardio at tths with sunday rest? Posted: 09 Aug 2020 01:43 AM PDT I'm trying to lose weight. Been working out for a few months already and I want to step up my game. Do you guys think this is okay or should I add more recovery time? Currently doing omad as well. 5'8, 90kg, 21y/o [link] [comments] |
| Walking over the course of the day vs all at once Posted: 09 Aug 2020 12:58 AM PDT Hey guys, I was just curious about the actual difference between spaced out and cardio all at once. With my job I typically walk around 12-13k steps over the course of a 9 hour shift and this is the majority of my cardio, but how would that stack up against if I just went for a 60-90 minute walk on a daily basis when it comes to calories burned? Hopefully this is the right place to post this. Thanks. [link] [comments] |
| Totally dilettant question about reps and weights Posted: 09 Aug 2020 12:36 AM PDT I often see a discussions about low reps/high weights vs high reps/low weights But I cant stop thinking if high reps/high weights have any sense? For example if one starts with lets say 20 push ups, then after some time he became able to do 100 in one set, then he starts to put some weight and train with it, until he'll become able to do 100 with this weight, and then add more weight, can it be beneficial, or harmful?

| Need help learning how to cartwheel? Posted: 08 Aug 2020 11:55 PM PDT Hi everyone, I've spent the last few weeks trying to learn how to do a cartwheel but have essentially made no progress since the second day. Basically, I can't move past the "around the world" stage - I can't get my legs over my head, can't get my body in one vertical plane, and can't keep my legs straight in the air. I've tried watching lots of tutorials and practicing but I don't seem to be improving. I wanted to ask if anyone might know of resources where I could figure out what's going wrong? Is there any way to learn from a gymnastics instructor or other fitness instructor individually? I am an adult, so I'm struggling to find a community with other adults to learn this sort of skill. Otherwise, I'm not sure how to move forward. Thank you in advance for the suggestions! [link] [comments] |
| Lateral Raises in Push work out? Posted: 08 Aug 2020 10:15 PM PDT PUSH 4x5, 1x5+ bench press/4x5, 1x5+ overhead press (alternate in the same fashion as the rows and deadlifts) 3x8-12 overhead press/3x8-12 bench press (do the opposite movement: if you bench pressed first, overhead press here) 3x8-12 incline dumbbell press 3x8-12 triceps pushdowns SS 3x15-20 lateral raises 3x8-12 overhead triceps extensions SS 3x15-20 lateral raises So in the PPL routine in the Wiki it says to do lateral raises twice in different supersets. Is it ok to reduce the weight on the second superset or does it have to be the same? [link] [comments] |
| What can I do to increase ab visibility (minimise fat build up) and still get gains? Posted: 08 Aug 2020 10:14 AM PDT I'm 18, 160 pounds and 6 foot and go to the gym 3 days a week, my abs are, or used to be, fairly visible what can I do to keep them like that whilst I bulk to build muscle everywhere else and not gain too much fat, I also consume 160 grams of protein daily and do an intense 15 minute ab exercise every day, should I do cardio?
