gonna start squatting twice a week my legs are too f***ing skinny even after months of training them
been waking up earlier and eating right. finally started sticking to my workouts and i feel amazing
Let me tell u guys I started off this year at 195 lbs
And after a diet of:
I'm at 175 lbs
random but do you know joe?
Y’all think it’s really necessary to do fasted cardio/lift to burn body fat and maintain muscle, or I can just keep myself in a caloric deficit and continue lifting? Cause I’d much rather do the latter lol

No it’s not, a deficit is all that matters long term and don’t go too hard either if you don’t wanna lose too much muscle/strength
Who's athletic af and got a program for speed and explosiveness?
What sport do you do? Or just trying to gain speed/explosiveness in general?

I don’t have a specific program but when I was working on S/E for tennis with my fitness trainer, first I got to a base level of strength on the big compound lifts. Then we would do, on a S/E day -
3x6 maybe 60-70% effort compound lift Superset with a relevant explosive plyometric movement.
So like 3 sets of 6x hex bar deads And 10x medicine ball cleans.
Then we’d do either just an accessory or a fairly easy plyo movement just to warm up if I was still feeling tight somewhere or unready on my feet
After that we’d move on to pure plyo or footwork or a combination of both. So like footwork drill with a box jump at the end. Or sometimes it’d be like hurdles with a big box jump at the end. The specific plyos and footwork drills you do are sport dependent but those are basically your bread and butter.
Finally we’d do some holds or ab work or low-impact cool down stuff.
Couple notes: these plyo movements feel pretty easy but they’re really taxing on your CNS, don’t trivialize them. Also it took a while to work up to this volume so I would start out slow. Also I couldn’t do barbel cleans because of a shoulder injury but the first superset was basically a replacement for that. #1 exercise for power athletes imo
