I am not a huge cardio guy. You will NEVER see me do 1.5hrs of cardio in a day. I am a use your cardio strategically guy. I use HIIT to elevate metabolic rate for extended periods of time (the goal is not just to burn fat DURING cardio its to elevate BMR), i use LISS to burn off a few extra calories and keep the fat loss moving while preventing too much adaptation to cardio....

meaning you never want to be TOO good at cardio.

As your anaerobic thresshold rises (when you get better at cardio) you operate efficiently off a higher % of oxygen (and this means less caloric expenditure)

I am not a low calorie guy. I do not believe in flat muscles (dont overthink this, of course you go flat at points, but remaining flat for extended periods is bad), i do not believe in slowing the BMR and i do not believe in just overall weakening your system and destroying performance (training).  

I am a use your macro's PROPERLY (in the right places and times, in the right amounts and with the right content) to INCREASE metabolic rate. I feel like 90% people lack understanding of macronutrients and how to USE them for your benefit, but rather they are afraid of them.
You do realize we carry extreme amounts of mass and our BMR to support that mass alone is high.

I am not saying keep calories high all day long, but at the very least fuel workouts properly!

It will improve performance --> more work done --> more calories burned --> more elevation to BMR for extended period post workout....AND you get optimal stimulation and retain/refine your mass!  

 

this is for the serious gym goer ( not for someone just starting out trying to lose a few pounds) 

 
In addition to fat burners/creatine and amino acids I carb cycle my diet and eat as clean as possible. Usually spend like 2-3 hours at the gym lifting weights (compound and isolation) then finish with like a 20-30 minute HIIT session and it usually works for me for shredding fat. I also take my whey in the morning, after workout and before sleep

  14. L @ Layne_Cobain: Snickers almond FTW 🙌
  15. L @ Layne_Cobain: Yes the mars almond was in a white-ish wrapper
  16. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Oh god! Way too much nuance and variation between Mars, Milky Way, and 3 musketeers. There’s was a special mars that had almond. A Mars bar from the UK is closer to a snickers than a traditional mars. What a rabbit hole though.
  17. S @ sawganaut: Snobording ok skiisss

  19. L @ Layne_Cobain: Anyone remember mars bars? I remember as a kid going over to my grandpas he’d keep them in the freezer we’d get there and go right for them haha so good think had almonds in them probably similar to a snickers almond
  20. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Okay, somehow I missed putting my two cents in during the chocolate discussion. The big near-half-pound slab of Hersheys Symphony bar with the BLUE label is hands down the best mainstream chocolate bar in America. You folks over across the pond kill it with Cadbury’s and I won’t deny it’s the best but those damn blue symphonies have me hooked.
