| Does whey protein improve muscle if I am already consuming enough? Posted: 16 Apr 2021 02:22 PM PDT I have read that whey protein is fast digesting and helps improve recovery time and even muscle synthesis but the same thing is true for protein (regardless of source). I am already protein sufficient. Do I need to consume whey protein if I can eat a meal right after a workout? My primary reason to avoid whey protein is cost and would spend on it only if required. I am not doing very intense exercise at the moment since covid-19 makes the gym inaccessible. [link] [comments] |
| Can you still get buff while eating less? Posted: 16 Apr 2021 05:43 AM PDT I have IBS (pregnant man belly). Last 2 days I've tried 'fasting'. I only eat breakfast and 1 big meal. My gut issues has improved, also less air in the stomach. I'm used to eating 3 big meals per day + a bunch of small stuff here and there. If I eat a lot less will it result in losing muscles? Not sure how to tackle it [link] [comments] |
| Machine workouts vs free weights for beginners? Posted: 16 Apr 2021 09:28 PM PDT So I just finished my first week of working out in a gym and I think I'm doing pretty good and making progress so far but I was told that free weights are by far more effective for weight training but because of covid I don't have an opportunity to learn from some one what free weight exercises I can do and how to do them properly, am I better off to stick to machine exercises for now since I don't want to risk injury to myself and look like a fool in the gym? Also how much more effective if any is free weight exercises versus machine based? [link] [comments] |
| Any Advice for Someone Who Knows Nothing? Posted: 16 Apr 2021 09:21 PM PDT 19M in California who hopes to be able to go to the gym sometime soon. Body metrics using my scale: Height - 5'10"; Weight - 144 lbs; BMI - 21; BFP - 11.2%; "Muscle rate" (including smooth muscle): 55%; "Protein rate": 20%. I tried bodyweight workouts on and off for the past 6 months but have only seen minimal progress. At most, I only ever got my muscle rate to go up by around 1%. My goal is to make my body look less like a normal-to-skinny body with a moderate amount of fat on it and more like a normal-to-skinny body with a modest amount of muscle on it to counterbalance the fat. I have no experience with working out at gyms, but I've heard that doing bench presses and general ab workouts are sufficient to meet my goals. Please let me know if I am wrong about that. Are there any beginner workout routines you would recommend to meet my goals? Given my lack of muscle, I anticipate that I will not be able to do bench presses with weight beyond the barbell itself. I am insecure about people at the gym judging me about only being able to lift the barbell, though. Is it common to start out here, and is my fear irrational? I also have no idea how to construct a diet centered around building muscle. What do I eat lol? Thanks so much! [link] [comments] |

Pike Pushups - 3 sets until failure Pushups to 90 degree hold - 3 sets until failure Deep Pushups - 3 sets until failure Triceps Extensions - 3 sets until failure Bent Over Row Deadlift (with dumbbells) - 3x12 Dumbbell Curls - 3x10 Russian Twists - 3x15 each side Squat Lunges - 3 sets until failure Repeat 2 more times [link] [comments] |
| Beginner Seeking Ways to Improve Physique Posted: 16 Apr 2021 09:14 AM PDT Hello everyone! My question is, where do I start? Because of quarantine, I've gained weight and I wouldn't say I have the healthiest diet. I don't really like this at all and I want to improve my self image. What exercises/routines should I do? How much? What should I eat? I guess my question is encompassed by the overall question, where should I start? I've included some stats and goals I'd want out of this below if it helps : ) Thank you! IrritablyBroken Stats about myself if it helps: Don't wanna reveal my exact age but I'm a teenaged boy 5'10ish 150ish pounds Wanted goals out of fitness/working out: Lean muscle [link] [comments] |
| Looking for the "right" bodybuilding/ fitness variant Posted: 16 Apr 2021 05:32 AM PDT There are so many fitness/ bodybuilding/ weightlifting/ cardio/ etc variants out there (with at least 2 subreddits each) - it's so hard to find the "right" one to dive into. I'm a 48y/o male, my goal is to lose weight (fat) and gain muscels. I love really to dive deep into a new self-improvement related topic like exercising. I'm kind of nerdish - I like to read the relevant magazines, read blogs, optimize parameters of my workout to achieve better results, read about nutrition and supplements, measure results and so on. I discovered intermittent fasting/ OMAD a while ago, was very euphoric/ enthusiastic about it. Now I'm not overweight anymore but I didn't reach my weight goal yet - so I need to find an exercise routine that helps me reach my goal (only a few kg left) but also makes me stronger. But the main thing is that I need something that is exciting to me. And I should be able to do it at home, because the Gyms are still closed. I do have dumbbells but would be willing to invest in other equipment if needed. Any recommendations? Thanks in advance! [link] [comments] |

| What to expect/ ask at a first PT session Posted: 16 Apr 2021 02:05 AM PDT I've signed up with a Personal Trainer for the first time. It's at my regular gym (which I haven't been inside for a year because of lockdowns) and I'm a bit nervous about what to expect and unsure about how to get the best out of the session. Any advice or tips would be appreciated [link] [comments] |
