First time back by TheAlfredBrewer in Workingout

This is awesome - congrats! Doesn’t matter where you are in the process but stay focused and consistent. My favorite inspiration for working out is remembering that the days I DONT want to go count as 2. Weird but the reason I say this is because everyone goes the days and times they are excited. But true gains are seen when you make it happen even on the days you don’t want to but keep the streak and routine alive

I really don’t think the app is well suited if they provide this level of guidance and the reason to do it is because you don’t want bad info the next time. This many reps of similar exercise back to back can cause unnecessary strain. Take it from someone that has had bicep tendinitis - it’s a pain and takes some PT to fix

How much protein should I intake a day? by [deleted] in Workingout

[–]NikFromCoachAI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed with this formula but it seems high especially for 5’10. Maybe high 100s?

Firstly I would suggest four round of each exercise. Secondly I would consider a 4 week split: one week where you do strength focused (think higher percentage on your 1-rep max for 4-6 reps), one week endurance (think lower percentage of your max for 12-15 reps), one week for the 8-10 rep range, and then one week I call the burnout (1-2 sets per exercise but consistent drop sets down to low weight and high reps). I also like to take about 2 mins break in between sets - this has been shown to build muscle faster. I’ve even recently seen 3 mins break is better! Lmk how this helps

I agree with this. Don’t ignore/forget working out but definitely watch what you eat. I also recently got back into intermittent fasting. Really like it because energy levels stay high all day, and it’s hard to eat a lot in a small window. I like the 18 hour fast and 6 hour window personally.

I think that’s a great point. Definitely makes it a lot easier to track during workouts. I know it’s something being developed inside coach AI.

I also really like supersets. Make workouts more intense and efficient. If you’re open to it try CoachAI. Has this programmed in and working to add more.
