been a while since I posted in this thread

hope everyone's lifting and progressing

2021 was an incredible year for my health & fitness

I learned so much, and really built the right behaviours to set me up for long term success

Looking forward to making 2022 an amazing year too!

It’s lowkey a myth unless you go to like planet fitness. I’ve never noticed a big increase in gym goers around the new year.

Thought I had strep, but my brother is sick too and tested negative. Guessing it's COVID until the test comes back. Sucks for starting the year without any momentum Guess I'll focus on diet and stretching

I got pretty jaded after a third lockdown three months ago and dropped lots of weight again and lost noticeable amounts of strength

wasn't nearly as bad as the first lockdowns and somewhat managed to lose just about 10lbs. It's been three months now and I fully regained the lost 10lbs. I can rep 2 plates on bench for 3 and can squat three plates again.

gonna enter a hypertrophy block after I finish this strength ting two months from now.

Every time I gain some size there's always some s*** that happens after when i'm about to lean down. Next time, Idgaf what's going on, I'll lean down as much as possible. I'm satisfied with this body and I know a more visible six pack is going to be the icing on the cake.

no rest for the wicked god damn it

Awesome pics. Great size. Look thick. Solid. Tight. Keep us all posted on your continued progress with any new progress pics or vid clips. Show us what you got man. Wanna see how freakin' huge, solid, thick and tight you can get. Thanks for the motivation.

now dis the copy pasta i like to see

First time bulking and my face is getting fuller/rounder I f***ing hate it

I also gained like 2 lbs in the last 3 days so maybe I'm bulking too fast, but how do I undo this

Do I just slow the bulk and cut the carbs/dairy to a lower level?

I wake up super late and just have 2 meals a day where I eat anything and everything

Meal 1: 2 slices of toast, 3-5 eggs, protein shake 30g, fruit smoothie

Meal 2: Usually something carb and protein heavy and then whatever else is in the cabinet, dairy, I literally just eat whatever because my metabolism is so fast, it'll be like a 2500-3000 calorie meal

But now I see it in my face and it's like :

Facial hair can help cover some of the weight gain

are you better now?

Less carbs no?

I hate leg days brehs. I skip too much. I really shouldn’t. Gonna do it today

anyone here have or has had De-Quervain's tenosynovitis before? i have it in my dominant hand and s*** sucks

dawn fm is gonna hit so hard for gym today

Does anyone do calisthenics here? Can you train everyday or do you have more rest days? Im really new to it

Need to get on a cut , ever since I came back home for winter break, been eating HELLA

take zyrtec or an anti-histamine

Bulking mindset - how tf do I get enough food in, I'm so fulllllll

Cutting mindset - how tf do I get enough protein in with so little fooddddd

I know calves are largely genetic but those of you with higher calves, have you guys made decent gains?

The one thing that helped me, and I still struggle with eating enough, is I try not to snack. I'll "snack" with a mini meal.
But I'm also a smaller guy so my needs aren't high

Doing cardio and I didn’t realize my airpods were dead so I gotta listen to the gym radio, these mfs are playing camp era gambino

finally switching back to the gym after 3 years training from home

mass gainers really helped me

feeling rejuvenated
