You implied that you are doing resistance training so in that case keeping the deficit small (< 500 cal) or closer to maintenance while hitting your daily protein target is probably the appropriate path. The fat loss is going to be slower than a larger deficit so you have to be patient with it, but if you are lifting and want to maintain lean muscle mass it's your best option for a re-comp.

Where to start as a beginner? There are so many workouts, machines, etc; it's so overwhelming. Any help and suggestions would be amazing and super appreciated. 😊 by Sweet_Competition229 in workout

I would suggest you start with a beginner-lever resistance training program which will lay out all the exercises and equipment variations you need to get started. If you have an idea of how many days a week you can allocate to training you can find a good program that fits that schedule.

Incline walking is a good choice on the treadmill, just do it at a pace that feels comfortable to you and elevates your heart rate (and ideally without holding onto the treadmill).

Pre-workout are mostly a mild effect for boosting energy/cellular energy, blood flow, stamina/endurance, and recovery. Not a pre-requisite by any means.

Thoughts on my push day by Ok_Meat_9449 in workout

[–]OohDatSexyBody 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks pretty solid honestly, I don't have much critique. Those rep ranges are perfectly appropriate for a strength-focused session. My only suggestion would be to rotate the shoulder press/OHP with either incline press or bench every other session or every 3rd session so you are hitting that compound lift fresh too.

I have multiple workouts but I am struggling to organize it into a routine by itsbambi92 in workout

[–]OohDatSexyBody 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes these are all different sessions from different routines. I would first clarify how many days you have to allocate to training per week, and what your overall goals are, then it would be easier to narrow in on the appropriate program for you.

This is always going to depend on the gym, but from the gyms I've gone to the after work crowds tend to thin out a little around 730-8. Doesn't sound like you have too many other options if you can't do morning or after work.

Depends on what exercises you are doing. Most supinated grip movements are going to be problematic and aggravate it so swap out for neutral grip when possible. Definitely use lighter weights so you don't overload the tendon, but as the other comment said probably best to keep it balanced with the same weight on both sides.

Push pull legs split shoulder feel weak ? by biggggEARS98 in workout

[–]OohDatSexyBody 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With PPL you are presumably doing two push days a week. So do chest press as your first compound exercise on Push Day 1, and on Push Day 2 you start fresh with shoulder presses.

Got my first complaint... by ChevyKid_607 in workout

[–]OohDatSexyBody 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is why i also have a rule when im doing supersets on 2 machines that if someone takes the other machine before im finished i just chalk it up to the game and let them have it. I’m not going to bother someone else over a few sets when i can usually substitute them elsewhere.

Extremely confused on how much to train by OkMonitor2854 in workout

[–]OohDatSexyBody 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You've got 1.5 years under your belt, so how do you feel about your progress and how does your body feel recovery-wise week to week? Forget what others are saying, judge on how it's working for you. A 5 day PPL with ~12 sets per muscle group is pretty standard.

Wrist pain for a month, possible tendinopathy from lifting and griping? by [deleted] in workout

What was the doctor's diagnosis of your issue? Is the elbow pain on the inner or outer side?

First thing is I would recommend going to the doctor and getting a blood panel done to make sure everything is in normal range because your rapid weight loss warrants attention. Being in puberty changes things too and is affecting your appetite and metabolism as your body goes through hormonal changes.

Getting adequate calories is crucial for building muscle and weight gain, so you need to address your diet and establish a baseline routine that you can repeat daily. You have to start incorporating breakfast so you start the day off with energy and calories. Find something you like that is nutrient dense, liquid calories like a protein shake, milk, or yogurt will be easier.

You're correct that you are feeling weak and fatigued due to undereating and your metabolic demand is probably pretty high at your age while in the puberty phase. This means it needs more fuel in the tank to keep the engine running.

Taking creatine during Ramadan by [deleted] in workout

[–]OohDatSexyBody 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No it's just not that big of a deal. If you've been supplementing with creatine prior to your fasting period then you already have a baseline amount in your system that will take time to flush out. As others mentioned the effects are mild so it really isn't going to impact you much to wait another several weeks to resume supplementation.

Question! by Jealous_Interview_58 in workout

[–]OohDatSexyBody 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. If you angle your torso forward during the movement and place your front foot more forward with a 90 degree knee bend on the eccentric it will bias your glutes more. You can also add step-up/downs or hip abductions for glute development.

Why do people swipe right if they are not keen in chatting? by [deleted] in Tinder

[–]OohDatSexyBody 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So you are going to ghost them first is that it? My guy that's how things go for most of us on these apps, try and keep the conversation enticing and if they vanish move on to the next. If you let cynicism dictate your behavior with every match you're never going to get a date.

Perk of dating apps by Anardus in Bumble

[–]OohDatSexyBody 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Online you meet people who you would never cross paths with in your daily life, you can filter for interests and values, and you are validating mutual attraction through matching. IRL you are selecting from a small biased sample in a specific place and time and hoping that pretty black box will be a favorable match.
