Thought I would bring this thread back, has died many times before but hopefully we can keep it going this time. Basically discuss anything to do with working out, weight lifting, body building, dieting, etc. Feel free to give people tips, ask and answer questions, whatever you guys want.

I started pretty recently myself. Never did anything up until I was like 18 as I was always playing high school sports so never had to worry about getting out of shape. Started doing casually since then and now been going hard for the past 4 months about. I am stronger in virtually every area now, stuff is starting to take shape and I am pretty damn happy with the results.

Goal now is to bulk up, which is tougher then it sounds :$

Starting a two week period of Steak and Egg Diet before my vacation.

30 minutes of moderate cardio in the morning, a maintaining workout at night 3 times a week, let's see what happens.

My favourite snack before going to bed has become vanilla almond milk mixed with a tbsp of vanilla protein, a tsp of cashew butter, a cup of blueberries, and some grapeseed powder.
That's an awesome sweet kick at night that you can look forward to during the day when you're dieting and depraving yourselves of sugar.

Also, a cruel trick I find works for me to keep discipline during the day: if you have a tendency to be hard on yourself with a bad consciousness when you eat something you shouldn't, which I am, I eat a little piece of the most unhealthy candy imagineable in the morning, like one or two little gummi bears. In calories and carbs, it's really negligible, but I get such a bad consciousness from eating it, that I get the determination during the day to stick to my diet.
I call that a mental hook.

Is it mindfuck? Sure is. But it helps.

Anyone got any good ideas for healthy snacking stuff? I'm thinking low or no carb, like keto type stuff.

I like to think I'm fairly fit and not too overweight but my big problem is my dad bod fatty middle, biggish hips, belly fat like a lot of men have issues with. I grew up fat and overweight (118 kgs at my worst - I'm about 94kgs now - 6"3 btw) so it seems to be left over from that period and I hate the way it looks and feels.

Another thing I know I need to do is reduce things like hot chips, bread, crisps, sugar. I don't eat a lot but I do eat too much - when I get hungry though my discipline is poor and I just think ''fuk it'!

We're the same height! :woo

Many people regularly eat candy but my version of candy is fundamentally apples and almonds. Sometimes trail mix. Dried fruits (dried cranberries are a favorite). Half of a handful of walnuts from time to time. Dairy is primarily limited to mornings, during which time a small cup of non-fat Greek yogurt and a small glass of milk is nourishing. Boiled eggs--one or two every two or three mornings. Avocado is a winning snack/almost small meal, providing numerous benefits while tasting good. Guacamole is delicious--not exactly stunningly healthful but not bad in moderation, and one can bake some slivers of chicken breast with which to spear some guacamole. Some leaves of curly kale may provide sustenance, and I like to make salads of Chinese cabbage, red leaf lettuce, tomato slices and onion slices. Squeeze a lemon, whisk the lemon juice with a couple of teaspoons of Worcestershire sauce and a teaspoon of all-natural honey, and you have yourself a good dressing. Doubtless leaving some things out but this is not an altogether shabby start!

Driving down to Los Angeles in late June I stopped only once at a gas station in Lost Hills, California. They had huge bags of trail mix for $1.50 each so I grabbed four of them (sort of wish I had bought more). Such a good snack while driving down that straight line at about 80 miles per hour. :side: :lol

The best advice I can give people for being healthy is to be active and to count your calories. If you do those two things, odds are you will end up fit.

Has anyone been following a keto diet? I started on it the first week of May and have lost 65lbs so far. It's honestly way easier than I expected.

No. I do follow more of a lower carb, higher protein sort of diet, but I know that is more Atkins than Keto as Keto is high fat. I follow a few Keto channels on YouTube though.

Just getting the processed carbs out of the diet makes a big difference though. I rarely ever eat junk and I don't eat rice, potatoes or pasta either. Bread is only very occasional if I'm eating a sandwich out and the only carbs I eat on a regular basis is oats and beans and the rest of my diet is healthy veg, protein and good fats.
