Macedonia in Europe.
The effects of climate change are real here.
Summers are getting unbearably hot,and winters are getting unbearably cold.

what do you think about the scholars who argue that insulin resistance is more critical to weight loss than calorie restriction/eat less exercise more?

i like how it is framed in terms of hormone regulation rather than an issue of discipline

I get the bowl, double chicken, extra everything, two tortillas on the side 💪

Yeah bulking in the summer is disastrous

Lockdown f***ed my body up but I was getting my shape back after the gyms opened back up. The governor probably gonna close them again today dawg I f***ing hate it here.

anyone dealt with costochondritis?

Yea I know insulin plays a crucial role but if your body is behaving in any normal range, it’s really just about cals in vs out. Sure your body will try to reduce calorie expenditure if you decrease intake, but that’s not gonna be large scale enough to stop weight loss. Well unless you just sit in the couch all day and literally choose not to do anything. Activity demands energy(calories) and therefore there’s no way insulin can inhibit fat loss if you’re at a low enough deficit and aren’t sedentary

But yea, everyone is different which is why two 6’0 200 lb guys with the same TDEE may require maybe even a hundred calorie difference to see the same weight gain/loss. But the laws of thermodynamics still do not change. Put the fork down, and the weight will drop.
It’s really that simple. For different people though it’s a bit more difficult to achieve that deficit. For example, higher insulin levels may need a slightly higher deficit, having higher amounts of fat cells is shown to have some significance, and simply the different levels of ghrelin and leptin between people.

im diabetic type 1 so i give insulin alot for example if my blood is high would that create a lot of fat in my body because you know diabetes have no insulin in the body so we decide how much to put in

as i said to you before eat every three hours a small meal peanuts almonds peanut butter sandwhich

i may have quoted the wrong person so i think you were the one saying the answer so hear

Yeah bro i took your advice im trying but its too hot and i feel full easily.
But im gonna be fine lol
Thank you tho

depends on how much your eating to when you eat breakfast dont eat so much eat little then try it if you like but the person who told me about this said that its also hard in the summer he use to do roofing and tried it but could not since he was in the sun all day

had a great time in the gym yesterday. did some legs. came home and was seeing colors in my left eye thought something was seriously wrong with me lmao. drink your water guys

Yeah weird s*** like this has happened to me before too. Sometimes a heavy lift just throws you off

Getting back in the gym for the first time in a few months today

Upper body finna get slammed

It’s kinda crazy but I’ve grown to love hitting leg day more than any other day

Best day

On god.

I tried out this new routine like 4 weeks ago to hit legs twice a week and everything else once. Not sure if it sounds good to you but I’m liking it so far. I heard your supposed to switch programs every 6 weeks right?

I also officially hit the front split and side splits the other day too

Frequency depends on your goals but in general sounds fine. And you don’t necessarily need to switch so often. More so if you stop seeing progress

Such a good feeling

Damn you guys are flexible. Can you do it on a d\*\*\* tho?

Yes.
