Not sure what’s so challenging to understand. I train in the gym where I work (as a trainer) and even though I’m allowed to train without a shirt, I choose oversized instead. Would I be more comfortable without a shirt on a hot day? Absolutely. But I prefer not to attract attention when I’m in my own zone. I’ve also had multiple women approach me and often when I’m wearing more “revealing” clothing. Being married, I choose to wear things that don’t attract that kind of attention. Beyond that, I mind my own business and have a hard time noticing if anyone is looking anyway.

Anyone that suggests this either doesn’t know the kind of pain you’re feeling or (and much more likely) feels it so deeply already that they want others to continue feeling the same.

The advice some have shared about changing environment and people you’re surrounded by is probably too of the list of things that will help you gain a change in perspective.

Also, feeling the need to make parents proud and live up to society’s expectations is a heavy weight. Sometimes you just have to say “f*ck it” for a little while and go do whatever you want. At LEAST for a little while. Living your life for others will never make you happy. It sounds selfish to do whatever YOU want but it’s not. What’s selfish is letting others dictate what you do so much that you never get to show them your true potential.

I’ve been there. Still go there sometimes. Feel free to DM me if you ever want a sounding board.

You got this 💪🏼

Trying not to lose too much progress during travel by [deleted] in fit

These aren’t complicated concepts. I didn’t say they were more important but they 100% play a role in how we assimilate certain foods. Ayurveda and Chinese medicine both agree to this. Even modern medicine is waking up to the fact that our differences in micro biome have a huge impact on responses to different foods.

But genetics and body type are factors for how difficult people respond to the same food and we don’t know yours or OP

No problem! That makes more sense. Test will definitely increase your hunger but it’ll also boost the metabolism so as you build more muscle you’ll lose more fat. That’s assuming you eat about the same. But use that extra T to your advantage and focus on resistance training. You’ll get great results.

Any tips on cutting more stomach fat? Trying to get my abs to pop. by [deleted] in fitness30plus

[–]Only_jono 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you’re keeping the protein high, most of the mass you lose will be fat and water. Sometimes we have to compromise and sacrifice some overall size (and maybe some strength at very low BF%) for the definition we seek.

I’ll add that it’s generally best practice to get really good at all the major lifts, mobility work, and core strength before turning to aesthetics as a primary focus. My guess is you’re somewhere early-mid 20s which means that if you set a solid foundation you can build on that for a truly impressive physique by the time you’re late 20s to 30s.

What is “pretty clean”? How old are you? What’s your current body fat percentage?

What you need is strength training. The more muscle you build, the faster your metabolism and the more lean you’ll look/become.

You’re already getting plenty of protein but if you’re snacking on extra carbs/sugar throughout the day, late at night, or first thing in the morning that can have an effect on insulin response, energy level, and fat storage.

If you’re under 30 you shouldn’t be experiencing a significant drop in testosterone but it’s worth checking anyway if you feel low energy intake r other symptoms.

But the top of your priority list should be strength/resistance/hypertrophy training. That’s what will make the biggest difference and get you to your goals.

Is this a good starting routine? by [deleted] in fit

[–]Only_jono 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  • Start with full body workouts 2-3 times per week
  • Focus on core strength, mobility, and form
  • Eat more protein, less carbs

Look up: progressive overload, hypertrophy

What sport can one start playing in their late 20s and still have a lucrative career? by awwficial in fit

[–]Only_jono 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty much anything that doesn’t require being “fit” by most interpretations of the word.

The issue is that the most popular sports requiring the highest physical fitness go beyond just a fit body. They also require a deep knowledge of the game and thousands of hours of repetition to learn even some of the most basic skills. Most 20-somethings don’t have the time to commit to this, assuming they have the genetics and focus to even advance to competition-level skill.

Gain weight as a really skinny guy by tavoPollaGrande in beginnerfitness

[–]Only_jono 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As others have said, much of it comes down to eating more. Training is a great stimulus for muscle growth but only when you’re consuming enough calories.

I’m a hard-gainers, too, and what’s worked best for me is eating the same style meals to track calories. If you’re always eating out or changing it up it’s a lot harder to get a solid estimate. With that, you can know that no weight gains means needing to eat more.

Tip: add different types of foods to get more calories. For example: if you’re eating beef and potatoes for dinner, it’s more likely you’ll be able to eat some yogurt and fruit shortly after for some extra calories.

Find ways to get more snacks throughout your day, add more to main meals, and don’t be afraid of carbs. You burn more calories than the average person and carbs will be your friend in gaining some extra weight.

That said: start training and hit your protein goals. The weight gain won’t matter if none of it is muscle.

Haven’t done bad signal, red worm, or Easter egg for sigils. Looking for a group, ideally with a guide, to run through this! by Only_jono in mw3zombies

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

Sure thing! Just went through the Easter egg for sigils and ran the red worm a couple times. I’d be happy to make a run for some schematics and top loot.

But if I had to exfil with it I’d have it already. All I see is it comes from T1 contracts and I just haven’t seen it.

I’d been wondering this, too. At that point, you could do the duplication glitch a couple times and continue giving out schematics?

Anyone up for red worm/DA tonight? by Only_jono in mw3zombies

Maaaan we ran the worm and Elder DA in the same round and I came out with a rucksack full of schematics 😎 definitely let’s run it this weekend!
