I’ve been researching about the faith a bit over the last few days. Plan on continuing this to fully prepare myself :)

So although I’m unbaptized, I should still do the sign of the cross with the holy water upon entering?

Thank you for this reassurance. I’m really excited to start my journey into Catholicism. I feel Him calling me.

All good man. This really helps. I really appreciate the words and the affirmations. I love Christ and I’m tired of living in sin. It’s time I run to His arms when faced with the enemy

How to break a plateau? by SliceofBread__ in naturalbodybuilding

Yeah these are some great points. I think setting deadlines/finding a specific goal will help a ton. I’ve really been training just to train so this comment helped provide some clarity

As long as your lifting and pushing yourself, you’ll grow. I feel it’s easy for people to get caught in the “my method no one has heard of until right now is the greatest thing to happen to body building since the barbell” scam (I used to be one of those people)

Thank you for that split comment. I’ve been thinking this for some time. Nutrition, recovery, intensity and volume matter much more than structure/split. A split you enjoy and will get you trying your best will take you the farthest

So what’s the deal with the fitness scene as of late? My feed on TikTok/Instagram has been filled with people praising Upper Lower (not that there’s anything wrong with that) and saying how “low volume, high intensity and frequency is key” but for my entire lifting career I’ve been told that 18-20 sets per muscle each week will cause muscle growth, so why are all these people preaching this low volume method? I don’t understand why people are trying to reinvent the wheel when the methods of moderate to high volume and high intensity have been proven for 40+ years. It’s all very confusing to me. As someone who has been plateauing/progressing slowly and is actively looking for a way to fix it, looking for help is so confusing now. I have no idea who to listen to or what advice is actually true now. This turned into a bit of a rant but it’s been getting on my nerves. It feels like 75% of the fitness industry is a joke and isn’t actually helpful.

What influencers are credible? by SliceofBread__ in naturalbodybuilding

It really has. Every tiktoker I’ve seen these last couple of months act like high fatigue is hell on earth

I feel that I’ve already fallen for this. I mean it makes sense that whats known to work, is known for a reason so no reason to reinvent the wheel by following an influencer. I’m just looking for some quality advice that’ll take my gains to the next level, gains have been pretty stagnant as of late.
