I don't even know what to do anymore. Staying on deficit feels like im spinning my wheels but if ill stop now i will miss out getting even leaner and if i will keep the cut going i feel like im wasting my time while i could get bigger and stronger.

I have gymming quite a lot recently and have put on a lot of muscle mass but I can't seem to cut. Mostly because I don't cut and have a bad diet. How do you do it lad?
Nathaniel Hughes
Add 30 minutes of cardio at least 2 or 3 times a week, either on off days or after lifting. Don't change anything else.
Just expend some energy, fat faggot. You can make it. And it's good for your heart and lungs.
Alexander Phillips

Gabriel Sanders
>Add 30 minutes of cardio at least 2 or 3 times a week
im lifting 5 times a week, doing 30 minutes of cardio after every session
>fat faggot
to make things clear, im not fat as in fat. I've got veins on my shoulders, chest, teardrops and some are showing now on my core but my stomach is not flat
Carson Kelly
Hrm. Well, a couple of things could be happening.
How's your diet? Abs are made in the kitchen. Maybe you need a bit more caloric deficit, or you need to tweak your macros.
Maybe you're building a lot of muscle mass, so bodyfat is going down but weight is going up anyway. Noobgains?
Good for you for doing cardio, too. So many people here seem anti-cardio, which I find stupid as fuck. Maybe you could add an hour of low-impact cardio on one of your off days?
Isaac Adams
>Maybe you need a bit more caloric deficit
im already at 1800
the point is that i don't know if i should stop the cut because there is no need to get leaner anyway because nobody will see me shirtless. On the other hand i could reach new bf% pr if i keep going. On the third hand i was close to benching x2 bodyweight and i would like to hit that goal this year.
Nicholas Wright
1800 is probably low enough.
You need to choose a goal. You listed two:
>reach new low bf%
>bench 2x bodyweight
So choose one and go for it. Then do the other one once you've done it. But you have to choose.
Jose Ross
I'm starting to think that I'm a non-responder. nothing I do works. not increasing calories, doing SS or getting enough sleep. all that happens is my lifts remain the same and I get injured. Fuck if these are my genetics I'm checking out permanently. I ain't being skinny forever

Brayden Long
Get on a protein sparing modified fast. Finish this off in 2-3 weeks
Noah Bailey
you probably don't need that much of a surplus, if you are gaining like a pound a week dial it back to half a pound a week
it's very possible you just have shit genetics for weight training, nobody wants to consider that possibility but it's a fact that some people just barely respond or even do not respond at all to training
if you've really done all you can and your programming and diet is in check and you're trying really hard and just nothing comes of it, it's ok, just find something else you enjoy that's physical and do that
maybe climb or do BJJ or something idk
Brayden Martin
I want to believe
Jeremiah Nguyen
>climb
nigga if he's got poor genetics for lifting what makes you think climbing is gonna go any better for him
unless you are naturally good at swinging your weight around and/or you autistically drill technique every waking moment you'll never get good at climbing
case in point: I've been at this shit for almost a year and I've already been surpassed by everyone who started around the same time I did because I'm incapable of gaining weight and therefore strength

i dont know what to do

>talk to the girl and lose virginity to her
>agree that we are fuckbuddies
>the girl is still talking to her ex
>i dont want to lose a fuckbuddy but I also dont want to go in her personal stuff(her problems, we jus fuck)
I dont get it, the guy is an alcoholic, he beats her and he fucked other girls with her knowing it, and she still wants him (they are metalheads btw)
I have a greek body and a fucking metalhead surpases me...

Unironically ask the girl you’re dating what her deal is. If you have a problem, make steps towards solving it, even if they’re baby steps.
Mason Wilson
I'm going to definitely on Monday at work, not tonight, I will look very pathetic doing that by phone. This will be the second weekend she does this, if next she do it again, it's over I have some dignity left. But tonight I need to find a way to stop the feels
Adrian Walker
Then quit being stupid and trying to do two things simultaneously that cancel each other out, faggot. Pick one for a year and go.
Jaxon Adams
Chill the fuck out, faggot. Perhaps she doesn't want to be around somebody who is miserable. Take the time to do something that makes you happy and relish in the fact that she hasn't dumped your ass yet and you may still be able to salvage it.
Isaac Roberts
This one kind of make sense, thanks user.
Jaxon Powell
Dont.
There is nothing on the other side. Just void.
Aaron Sullivan
women are naturally manipulative two-faced. They can easily act all sweet and kind and do the complete opposite behind someones back. You might be right that she has lost interest or something but is keeping up face at work.
Caleb Adams
That attracts some of us. Better a void than the pain that is life.
Dylan Reyes
Always judge a woman by her actions. Outside of work she doesn't want anything to do with you, so she doesn't want anything to do with you. She's most likely trying to keep the peace at work. One of my exes and I used to work together and that's exactly what she did.
Luke Evans
My body feels heavy and I have no strength, I feel hollow. Both inside and out. Even breathing is exhausting. What do I do?
Isaac Wood
OK anons thanks for reply, on Monday I will know for sure what's going on, I will be here around 9:00 pm EST reporting with the bullets picture what really is going
Lucas Ross
And remember my brother, no woman is worth killing yourself for. The guy my ex left me for got a job where we worked shortly after she left me so I had to endure them being insufferable. I was forced to watch as he got all of the kindness and warmth I tried so hard for but never got. Every time I worked one of them was there six days a week. No lie I thought about suicide and self harm all day every day for a little over a year. Even dreamt about it. Thought about killing them too. But I didn't, and now that I'm away from them I'm doing better with no suicidal or homicidal thoughts for about a week now. Don't you act a damn fool because you hurt. It'll pass, and you'll have learned a lesson from it and you will be much stronger than before. I believe in you.
Cooper Watson
Don't worry user, I'm not going to kill myself, I gotta make it. I know it's painful, I have been dumped and I have dumped multiple of times, I know how to deal with it, what piss me off is the contradictional signals. I was joking with the bullets, I do own firearms, because I hunt and I go to the range frequently, I'm not a psycho.
We all are gonna make it.
Aiden Cruz

>Haven't gone out for months

>Nobody loves me or has ever loved me in my 19 years on earth
>Ugly face, still about 10kg overweight (making progress)
>Overloaded with uni work, can't relax
I just wake up, push myself through my daily routine and then sit in bed wondering why I'm even alive while I try to fall asleep.
I don't feel anything anymore, just a bored melancholy. My life is meaningless and I'm totally alone.
Blake Phillips
>lifting every day
>still no gf
>still no bf
Jaxson Evans
First step is to find a hobby you enjoy outside of lifting, user. Even if you don’t have any interest, trying different things will eventually lead you to something that is fulfilling and worth your time.

Jonathan Johnson
1000 cals is about one third of a pound of fat. It's nothing. Drink a glass of water and you gain that weight.
3500 cals deficit a week is one pound a week. Try that. 500 cal deficit a day.
