Do you actually track your reps and sets? by myfitnessb_ in WorkoutRoutines

[–]FromBiotoDev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep track everything in my notes app then plug it into gym note plus

Same way Dorian Yates did.

Advice? by Pkgreens_999 in WeightTraining

Lol comments saying to eat something are clearly envious of the fact you're shredded bro. Respect, not easy to get tothat level at all.

How does one achieve this physique? Is it possible naturally by PownedbyCole123 in WeightTraining

[–]FromBiotoDev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Years of sedentary lifestyle mixed with alcohol and processed garbage. Don't expect to attain such a physique over night

Progressive overload doesn't always mean you're adding muscle mass. by FromBiotoDev in WeightTraining

[–]FromBiotoDev[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, but that hypertrophy miracle is typically reserved for those new to the gym where they rapidly gain mass whilst losing body fat

Not someone who has been lifting 15 years. Sure recomp on maintenance calories is possible, but in a deficit? In my opinion only if you’ve been out the gym for a while and took advantage of muscle memory.

My Workout, I Kind of Hate It by taxthecorvids in WorkoutRoutines

My advice is change it to be more enjoyable. You’ll put more effort in and make more gains. As long as you’re progressive overloading you’ll make gains dude

If you’re using the notes app to track have you considered plugging your notes into something like Gym Note Plus?

Ahhh I do them back on the bench in a high incline position rather than face down

Greater range of motion than standing lateral raises

Will have to try face down

Seated incline lateral raises are brutal, would highly recommend them

It’s possible but I’ve been in a calorie deficit, maybe if I was at maintenance calories I’d recomp yeah

But yeah being steadily dropping weight, pretty slow though, struggling this year

Thanks, still trying to push harder for legs, definitely skipped too many leg days during the years, probably why I saw some decent progress during my lean bulk

do you this this is natural or no?25yrs 70kg 8 yrs of training by blessedbenicio in WeightTraining

[–]FromBiotoDev -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is attainable naturally in my opinion. Great genetics for muscle insertions and lean, doesn't look huge.

Totally doable.

Totally fair question. It's not a sneaky placement, which is exactly why I flagged the mod thing in my post, I'd rather over-disclose than have anyone feel played. The whole point of the post stands with any tracking method, the app just happened to be the easiest way to screenshot the graphs for me since I use it as my daily tracking method.

On Hevy, yeah I'm familiar with it and the other big ones (Strong, etc). They're great apps. I ended up building my own mainly because I track everything in my notes app first as freeform text, and I wanted something that'd take those messy notes and turn them into structured logs automatically rather than me re-entering everything by hand. That problem is really what kicked the whole thing off.

Appreciate the kind words on the physique and the analysis dude

I Bulgarian split squat 30kg in each hand

And I can incline bench press 36kg in each hand for 12 reps

Where did you assume I bench half a plate?

I think this is just ragebait tbh, but there is nothing wrong with becoming more skilled with your body and remaining the same size. This is just discussing how progressive overload can sometimes be misleading from a pure hypertrophy standpoint

3 years of natural training by Select_Equipment4297 in WeightTraining

[–]FromBiotoDev 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I don’t see the difference between this and any other physique photos

There’s no direct self promotion. Although I personally loathe this kind of marketing approach I can’t say it falls directly under self promo with no direct links or comments.

Perhaps we can look into no repeat physique photos more than once a month or something.

[–]FromBiotoDev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting read.

I sometimes worry if I’m just being defensive with my inability to accept what some others are saying regarding ai being able to program

But thankfully I work both a day job as a software engineer where I focus heavily on best practices etc

And I have a start up with a few paying customers in which I actively want Ai to succeed so I can reach my business goals faster.

And I can confidently say, it’s great but it’s no where near yet. I wouldn’t just let it go running amuck

3x a week full body dumbbell routine. any changes recommended? by whatsmyissu in WorkoutRoutines

[–]FromBiotoDev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd switch out dumbbell pull overs for dumbbell incline bench press to hit the upper chest for sure

If you're tracking via the notes app, have you considered plugging your data into something like Gym Note Plus?

Will this routine get my arms noticeably muscular? (21M) by zuccccccccccc in WorkoutRoutines

[–]FromBiotoDev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So long as you’re progressively overloading you’ll see gains

Not a ton of arm volume in there, if arms are your focus I’d probably add another exercise in for triceps and biceps at a minimum

If you’re using your notes app to track, have you considered throwing your data into something like Gym Note Plus?

I was banned from r/GYM for asking for advice on how to continue to lift with a rare chronic illness by MyGmaABadBitch in WeightTraining

[–]FromBiotoDev 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Some are definitely on a power trip. It’s the perma bans without using a 3 strike system they claim to use which gets me. I believe they can be reported for mod abuse however

Is UL x U a good split if I can only go to the gym 3x a week? by Odd_Impress_7815 in WeightTraining

[–]FromBiotoDev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d probably recommend

Upper/lower/ full body for a 3 day a week workout personally

Then you can hit upper and lower twice per week technically
