    Doing maintenance of 2000 calories and im having trouble cuz i been in a cut for so long

    Im only 130lbs and using myfitnesspal mfers said to hit 200g protein to maintain that sounds insane

    What are yall ratios for ur macros?

    if you using an app, I would do 1g per lb of bodyweight + 20g

    Why the +20g?

    It's because those apps count protein in like pasta + veggies + beans

    And honestly, that's not high quality protein (in terms of bioavailability + amino acid profile), so I added 20g as a buffer

    So aim for 150g, instead of 200g. With 2000 calorie limit that can be tough, it's ok if you have a few days are like 130-140 too

    I find the Mike Tyson wall push ups to be much easier than regular ones

    Try hand release pushups

    Do em as slow as you can.

    Hang as long as you can under tension. Halfway up and all the way up

    A coworker came up from behind and was like "you know you have a real nice physique. You look like you take care of it and don't put any of that junk in. You look like one of those guys on TV. You look like... Thor"

    😅😅 I told her I'm just vain

    Greasing the groove. Get a pull up bar and do them often throughout the day.

    Start your workout with them. Always want to be fresh when practicing new things.

    Even if you’re just hanging on the bar with minimal lift. Just engage those muscles

    @SUPERMAN

    Anyone else can add their advice too

    Do yall do bro split like chest tris/back bi/legs ??

    This is what I do and go 5x a week but I feel I do too many exercises even though I’m improving and doing heavier weights

    Like for chest il do

    Incline db bench
    Db Bench
    Decline machine press
    Cable flys (incline, regular, decline)

    So 6 exercises around 3 sets 8-12 reps

    And then 3 tricep exercises. Is this too much? What can I take out?

    Ima be honest. I don't really track my meals and calories. I should but I don't because I'm lazy. I know I'd benefit from it but I'd go insane.

    Chest: machine incline press. Incline dumbell press where it's a neutral grip and they're touching. And I don't even do that 2nd exercise most of the time.

    Back: seated cable rows (varying grips).
    pull ups

    But my workout as of late is pretty much this. I drop exercises or add based on my mood.

    Sunday: leg day (leg major, glute minor)

    Legpress
    Dumbell RDL
    Hamstring curl
    Adductor abductor machine
    (If I have energy) 1 chest & 1 back exercise.

    Monday or Tuesday
    Chest
    Back
    Lateral raises (if my shoulders feel ok)
    Calf raises

    Wednesday or Thursday
    Leg day 2 (glutes and auxiliary)
    Hip thrusts
    Bulgarian split squats
    Bicep curls
    Tricep push downs

    Friday or Saturday
    Back
    Chest
    Forearm

    Most of that stuff is 4 sets. But I never go over 8 sets for a muscle group in a day (except my legs maybe)
