Master Thread Maxxing out (or not): Health / exercise / supplement thread

Yeah I’ve had success with keto multiple times throughout life. I can drop 30 pounds pretty easy but then I just get tired of doing it and pack it back on.

I’m gonna try and make a couple smart changes to my diet, but not going to put too much brainpower into it.

I like lifting weights because I like lifting weights and just want to change up my routine a bit

Found this:

5/3/1 and Bodybuilding

The main movement stays the same and keeps strength in the program. This allows you to progress from week to week and actually get stronger, something lacking in about 99% of non-assisted bodybuilders' routines.

Back in my college athlete days, we mixed it up quite a big. One week, we'd do 5 sets of 5, then another week 10-8-6, then another week 5-4-3-2-1, then another week 3x3. Mix in the higher reps with the lower reps so as to keep the muscles from getting used to things.

These days, I haven't been getting into too heavy of weights, but have been opting for reps between 6-12, depending on weight and the exercise.

Also, been trying to lose weight, but since I've been working out and adding muscle, my weight has been pretty consistent, but I'm improving my body composition at the same time, so I'm good with that. Still would like to drop 5-10 pounds but it's not urgent right now so I've lacked the motivation to make it happen.

Carnivore diet, and you will lose the weight in 2 weeks and you will likely lose more. Promise
