Hi All

Quick question, is there any real point to lifting weights while maintaining a calorie deficit?
Main aim is fat loss (hence the deficit) but i'd like to see some muscle growth as well.

Lolwat...yes!!!

Have a listen: https://www.bulletproofexec.com/dr-david-ludwig-food-addiction-will-power-not-enough-272/
The old paradigm of calories in / out is slowly shifting toward eating the right kinds of calories...which is more than adequate for working out.

Absolutely yes.

Even on a deficit the important thing is nitrogen balance in the blood - primarily governed by protein uptake - and you can still maintain and build muscle while cutting.

I would not recommend max PR lifts every single session however Depending on the deficit you might pass out

I've been maintaining a deficit of +- 500 cals.

Speaking of Rich, I'm following his Bigger Everyday YouTube series.

Quite interesting given he posted his stack a few weeks back. Actually pretty knowledgeable for guys on gear I think to check it out. Though his doses are pretty hectic.

Love this series...
"Serostim HGH" .... Eating Ben & Jerry's ice-cream every night :wtf:

One of the best bodybuilding series on Youtube at the moment. Wanna see when he is on 9 meals and his steroid cycle is at its max.

His supplement range is about to reach new heights in sales from this series. Note he does not use protein powders rather liquid egg whites. #AllDayYouMay

Hi All
Does anyone have any experience with those home pull-up bars? Especially the door frame mounted ones?
I worry that it's gonna break my door frame, I'm 90kg.


Thanks

Need to start cutting now. Can anybody suggest a good ECA Stack?

 

[Ancalagon]

Need to start cutting now. Can anybody suggest a good ECM Stack?

What's an ECM stack? You mean ECA or ECM?

In any case, the E part is probably difficult to get hold of these days.

ECA

I need to get some soon as well.

Look at SA Supplements Incinerate Fat Burner. It has synephrine in it, which is similar in function to ephedrine. It also has salicin, which is similar to aspirin (think its a precursor). And caffeine obviously.

Oh and green tea extract, another proven fat burner.

 

[Orihalcon]

Simply cut 350 odd calories from my eating plan and started HIIT cardio fasted in the morning 5 times a week. Dropping a good 1.5kg a week.

Should - hopefully - reach goal weight by mid to end of Feb.

SO now I'm trying to figure out which one is stronger SSN Ignite http://www.supplementworld.co.za/ssn-ignite.html or Incinerate http://www.supplementssa.com/sites/default/files/SSA_INCINERATE.jpg
Looks like incinerate judging by the limited info on SSN.

Think I am going with Incinerate unless someone can suggest anything else.

So I ordered this new Whey on the market called NPL. (First time I've seen it)

I couldn't decided on a flavour for Nutritech so I browsed through their other offerings and saw this.

I have also suffered from some bloating ever since I used the Nutritech Vanilla. Only thing that changed in my diet so I'm suspecting it is that.

Going to give NPL a try and will give feedback.

R629 for 3kg.

 

[Orihalcon]

Interesting. Will Google them.

New local producer?

Hi All
Been lifting for a few months now...seeing some gains....BUT.....

I have a bit of a shoulder/bicep problem.
My shoulder routine is either...
A few sets of military presses followed by some lateral/front raises.
OR
A few sets of dumbell shoulder presses followed by some lateral/front raises.
The routine depends on whether I am at the gym or at home.

My bicep routine is usually just a few sets of barbell curls or dumbell curls (Again, depends on whether I'm at home or the gym - No barbell at home) and some 21's.
I usually throw in a few sets of bent over rows as well.

The problem is, when I flex my biceps, I can see that my RIGHT shoulder is clearly more developed than my LEFT, especially the front deltoids.
I can also clearly see that my LEFT bicep is bigger than the RIGHT.

I am right handed
I'm lifting quite heavy for my capabilities, 8 reps is usually the max I can go with the 8th being a real push.

What should I start doing to even things out?

Thanks
