Agreed, it’s a good exercise but too many are pushed on it as complete beginners. Romanian dead’s are better for new people imo

Yea that pic made me lol too, but this isn't bad advice if you are a true beginner maybe spend a few weeks on learning to recruit those muscles you probably aren't used to using. And watch and try to understand videos and mental ques to perform it safely

Finally got back in after two months off why the f*** did I ever stop I feel so great

Took an entire year, but I did it. I benched 200lbs

RDLs are the ultimate for hamstrings

You had a good point till you said romanians are safer. If you're looking for a hip hinge do hip thrusts they hit the same muscles as a deadlift and you can load it as you progress. The point is anyone new to the deadlift must learn from someone reputable not a random good looking youtuber

Anyone ever trained on 5/3/1 BBB before?

Currently killing a leg day when I really wasn’t in the mood for it and wanted to skip 😤

I'm on 5/3/1 but not sure I'm familiar with BBB

I'm eating plenty and spreading it out but my body is telling me to eat all the time. I drink tons of water too

Any tips on how to curb hunger?

Eat more filling meals + fiber

I'm eating like 3500 calories at 6'8 222 and I'm very lean

My meals are filling and I'm keeping the skin on my kiwi and sweet potatoes

It's feels like hunger mode is always on, even when I snack on chickpeas, apples, and protein bars throughout the day

Been thinking about adding steak or something in the morning for more fat. Any foods you would recommend to add?

You need to eat a lot more at 6’8

Steak, chicken, ground beef or turkey

Snacks like nuts, beef jerky, Greek yogurt.

Edamame is good too. Probably should up your carbs too, add some pasta

Idk what your goal weight is but you def gotta eat a lot more at that height.

Shoot, for real? It feels like I eat all the time

Guess I'll start to add a protein shake in the morning and muscle milk post work out consistently then

I do HIIT once or twice a week. Think I have to worry about carbs at all (from chickpeas/bean crackers etc)?

Eating often =\= eating a lot. Maybe try to up your cals by 500-1000?

Could also add in extra protein scoops for more calories

You can eat carbs and still be lean, it’s about not having both high fats and high carbs, either one or the other

Good looks :word:

at this hotel rn & its all inclusive

im eating 80 grams of natural protein a day at least, almost no carbs and all healthy fats

My body feels better than ever lowkey

I always stock up on frozen edamame. 20 gs of protein for like one dollar. S*** goes dumb w some soy sauce

gonna snort pre-workout one of these days

ok this rich piana

RIP

anyone went through costochondritis?

Anyone here using/Ed testosterone? What's your expirence

I’m fat

You ain’t 6ft4 😆
