That makes sense to me. As long as you are hitting 10 sets per muscle group per week with somewhere in the range of 6-12 reps and being close to failure you are doing enough. More is better, but there are diminishing returns especially if you are going over 20 sets per week.

Go to the 22:00 min mark in this video and start listening and you will realize pretty much everything you believe about carbs and fat is wrong along with many long held beliefs in what types of diets and training burn more fat etc....
Its fairly technical and I've re-listened to many parts of it but I find it fascinating. Dr. Galpin trains a lot of profession athletes along a wide spectrum of sports along with teaching at Cal State Fullerton. Edit: It does however explain why so many different types of diets and exercise programs are effective. Last edited by Marcellus; 04-13-2023 at 09:28 AM.. |

Some of the time it's all "nobody know anything, this is how it is" and "it's all very simple" and then he'll also deep dive on things and go on tangents that aren't anywhere near answering the question. I get the feeling he wants everyone to know how much he knows versus trying to educate, but I'm sure there are some good points in there for research, if nothing else. I skipped around a bit and he mentioned the body wanting to burn fat for energy after a workout while storing carbs (since you're generally low on carbs).... thought that was interesting (at least until he said the after burn effect is minimal and doesn't really matter ). I just watched a Jeff Nippard video on metabolism and his thoughts echoed what this guy was saying... building muscle is good, but the effects on metabolism isn't amazing per day (it could be per year, or over the course of years), and not what people once thought. Jeff mentioned adding 30lbs of muscle over 5 years and used that as an example to budge metabolism.

I fast about 18 hours and exercise (moderately) daily. I have lost about 14 pounds in the last 2 months.
hasn't been too bad. Moderation in what I eat, has made a big impact, I believe.

I've been using semaglutide since february to curb cravings while in caloric deficit. It's made it easy to not snack between meals....I feel full after eating for a long time. Its working well, abs are in after letting things go too far last fall.
Anyone else use it? I really like it. I've had zero sides other than a bit of nausea when I was first figuring out my dose.

Been feeling like a beast lately, just hit 315 on squats 2x. Bench is a little weak, hit 285 for one rep and 365 on deadlifts. I switched from long bar to hex bar while doing deadlifts now. Not worth the injury and pain.
Was able to throw up 90lb dummy’s for some incline press, so hit the 100 lb club hopefully this month, but I’m taking it very slow.

I went to a personal trainer that specializes in power/strongman lifting and got form dialed in perfectly. Once that happened it actually reduced a significant hip and lower back pain I was going through. |

Many also extend too far back thrusting hips forward at the top of the lift. Good way to destroy lower back. Mixed grip is also not a great idea. Puts your shoulders in an uneven position which can lead to injury as well. This guy has some really good tutorials on lifting and proper form. |

I just bought the supplement Taurine. Total of 100 capsules of 1000mgs. One per day.
Supposed to be great for nerves, heart, brain and bones. Extending life of animals by 10%+ in clinical tests with no side effects. Will see what happens. Hopefully my dick doesn't shrivel up or stay limp.
