Be careful with water fasting. You NEED to get your nutrients.

2019-04-08 22:07:18 UTC  

right

2019-04-08 22:07:20 UTC  

You're also going to feel pretty weak during.

2019-04-08 22:07:21 UTC  

But i need someone who trains for strength to tell me how their strength holds up after

2019-04-08 22:07:26 UTC  

that's why im researching supplements

2019-04-08 22:07:29 UTC  

After what?

2019-04-08 22:07:34 UTC  

and i think water fasting should be done sparsely

2019-04-08 22:07:54 UTC  

Oh, I am water fasting.

2019-04-08 22:08:02 UTC  

More or less.

2019-04-08 22:08:05 UTC  

I'm on the opposite side where I'm trying to gain weight .it can rough at times but overall an enjoyable experience.

I don't take any sort of supplements or anything.I just cook good food and work out.

2019-04-08 22:08:07 UTC  

It's salt water and lemon tea.

2019-04-08 22:08:24 UTC  

With two meals a week.

2019-04-08 22:08:40 UTC

2019-04-08 22:08:47 UTC  

@Uncle Toxic aight that was kinda funny ill repost

2019-04-08 22:09:07 UTC  

Calorie dense foods @Leif_Ericksson99

2019-04-08 22:09:23 UTC  

And shit you find you can eat alot of

2019-04-08 22:09:28 UTC  

@Leif_Ericksson99 yes. remember to get your brotein in 🍺

2019-04-08 22:09:47 UTC  

im assuming you're asking about resistance training?

2019-04-08 22:10:32 UTC  

I mostly do bodyweight exercises pull ups, push ups etc.

2019-04-08 22:10:35 UTC  

Don't forget that you're not gaining to look good, you're gaining to be strong.

2019-04-08 22:10:44 UTC  

anything resistance training

2019-04-08 22:11:03 UTC  

Cardio will make you lose mass to become more efficient.

2019-04-08 22:11:05 UTC  

Whole Eggs are cheap

2019-04-08 22:11:17 UTC  

I find eggs are wildly unsatisfying.

2019-04-08 22:11:21 UTC  

oh and very important and should be common sense

2019-04-08 22:11:22 UTC  

You'll want red meat for creatine.

2019-04-08 22:11:30 UTC  

your brotein shake is not your main source of protein

2019-04-08 22:11:40 UTC  

it's a supplement and should be treated as such

2019-04-08 22:11:43 UTC  

Right

2019-04-08 22:11:45 UTC  

Look up carnivore body builders.

2019-04-08 22:12:04 UTC  

meat should be main source of brotein

2019-04-08 22:12:33 UTC  

Chicken and lean meat is good

2019-04-08 22:12:42 UTC  

You don’t want a whole lotta fat

2019-04-08 22:12:50 UTC  

nah

2019-04-08 22:12:53 UTC  

fat is OK

2019-04-08 22:12:59 UTC  

just don't mix it with carbs

2019-04-08 22:13:00 UTC  

well fat is better that's sugar that's for sure

2019-04-08 22:13:15 UTC  

@Leif_Ericksson99 if you're trying to be lean then you first have to figure out how many calories you should be eating then go from there .

If lean is you're goal then you Basically need to maintain a certain weight/bodyfat but in most cases you're probably too skinny and need to gain some weight while retaining low body fat.

You basically have to lift heavy and in more which isn't really complicated once you understand what you're eating

2019-04-08 22:13:55 UTC  

I'm looking to get up to 150-160 and stay at that weight, I'm not very tall so..
