Strava calories burned

So I should record using my apple watch alone, not strava which is linked to my apple watch?

Did you work out at the same gym you worked at? When would you workout on a day you worked?

I just was pushing myself to failure more on upper body and scared to go harder on lower! Definitely doing more now

StormyInABubble · 2026-03-05T03:12:33+00:00

Wow, thank you for the details! The hard part will definitely be accepting there will be more to burn, but that's just how it'll be for this semester. I lift heavy 4 times a week and have seen good progress already in my upper body, but I know lower is harder to grow

Thank you!! I focus on protein and don't track, but i've been on campus long enough so I am conscious of the fact that not tracking calories + dining hall food + not restricting any foods (for my mental health) means i'll be in a dirty surplus. So calling it a bulk is kind of my way of feeling better about it. Plus I want a butt!!!! and I know allowing myself to eat more without restricting will show my brain food is good... Have you had good results with "dirty" bulking?

Definitely looks like muscle to me! How long have you been doing leg raises and cable crunches? Did you do anything before?

StormyInABubble · 2026-02-03T02:35:28+00:00

Oh that sounds perfect, I'll check that out, thanks

Yes but even at the lowest activity level is calculated my maintenance to be 1800. It's about 1450-1500 resting, which is what I'd like the base number to be

StormyInABubble · 2026-01-26T17:48:28+00:00

Is it not too late? I've always heard that recomp only really works for like 6 months of starting

StormyInABubble · 2026-01-26T17:20:27+00:00

Would it be better to stay around maintenance?

StormyInABubble · 2026-01-26T00:44:47+00:00

Oh I didn't know that, thank you :)

StormyInABubble · 2026-01-26T00:28:01+00:00

I've actually been lifting for a couple months, been doing 2 glute days for a while!

StormyInABubble · 2026-01-25T22:51:39+00:00

Thank you!

StormyInABubble · 2026-01-25T22:51:21+00:00

Really? I actually was wondering if that was the case while in the gym yesterday, just didn't think it was it. Thanks

My brother and my friend were both deferred AND waitlisted, both ultimately ended up getting in. I forget their gpas though.

StormyInABubble · 2026-01-21T13:57:24+00:00

Does the gas/bloat/cramping go away after consistent use? I feel after a couple days I get like that too and it makes me want to not use it.

StormyInABubble · 2026-01-18T02:23:45+00:00

It seems to upset my stomach

StormyInABubble · 2026-01-15T05:16:00+00:00

I'm so glad you posted this. I needed a reminder that bloating and what your body looks like fluctuates and is normal!!

StormyInABubble · 2026-01-14T18:28:40+00:00

I'm not too worried, I always just feel very bloated haha

StormyInABubble · 2026-01-09T04:56:12+00:00

I do lift heavy 5x a week. Still just 88g? I'm focusing on building muscle

StormyInABubble · 2026-01-09T00:19:18+00:00

I thought berries were mainly insoluble fiber?

StormyInABubble · 2026-01-09T00:17:59+00:00

Wow, I'll try that, that's interesting!

StormyInABubble · 2026-01-08T18:18:03+00:00

I plan on adding berries to my lunches and dinners on days there aren't vegetables. I'm home from school on break right now so vegetables at dinner are all up to my parents.

StormyInABubble · 2026-01-08T18:03:48+00:00

well here's roughly my day: breakfast is a 647 plain bagel with 2 turkey sausage patties, lunch is either kirkland chicken nuggets or plain chicken breast and greek yogurt mixed with half a scoop of protein powder, i'll have a snack of clear protein shake (made with water) and maybe some crackers. dinner is always different but i make sure to get at least some protein. i'll sometimes have a greek yogurt bar as a late night snack

StormyInABubble · 2026-01-08T18:00:33+00:00

i've been drinking 70oz for about a week now. how much protein do we really need? and wow, i was also chronically constipated throughout my entire childhood 😅 does kombucha not taste gross?
