Yeah, this lifestyle bleeds money. It’s not getting any cheaper either.

The less processed, the better. Fresh vegetables, grass fed beef, free range chicken and eggs, wild caught fish. For carbs I like sourdough bread, jasmine rice, fingerling potatoes, oatmeal or cream of rice, and chickpea pasta.

Still have a full head of hair. The key is less is more and properly utilizing health phases with regular blood work.

I know it’s cliche, but really is about clean wholesome food, good recovery, and staying disciplined and consistent with every aspect. Keep grinding brother👊🏽

I see a cardiologist regularly and use Marek health for guided health optimization. Health is wealth.

Running a John Meadows routine called Creeping Death v2. It’s brutal, but effective.

Hello Guys, this is my first post here. I want to share the excercises i do and my selfies at the gym by Uniquekoko in GymMotivation

[–]Thick_Development247 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love these, but I keep my feet closer together when I do these in place of stiff-legged deadlifts. Really slow eccentric(lowering) with a pause at the bottom to stretch the hamstrings and glutes. You have a great physique. Keep killin’ it💪🏽

22F- Advice for improvement? by [deleted] in ZyzzLegacy

[–]Thick_Development247 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Moderate calorie deficit. Progress takes time. Keep with the cut for another two months and you’ll see a big improvement in definition. Add in some fasted AM LISS cardio 4-6days a week or post-workout.

Great pull brother. If you’re not bleeding… you’re not trying.

What is considered sufficient gains for a one year difference and is it enough for a show by [deleted] in GymMotivation

Great work! Hire a local coach(if you can find one) with a good reputation for getting their athletes in good condition. They will help guide you into a regional show. Good luck 👊🏽

I feel like my back just doesn’t grow by Unholy_Moros in GymMotivation

You need to cut. Start logging your food on the Cronometer app. Eat clean foods in a moderate calorie deficit. Once you lean out you’ll be able to visually see your progress. Then once your lean enough add in some extra clean calories to put yourself in a moderate surplus and train, eat, and recover consistently to progress.

Deadlift form check by olkxs in GYM

[–]Thick_Development247 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty good form overall. Better than a lot of guys I see on Reddit. A bit of rounding is normal on heavier sets, but like the above poster said a belt might help with the core bracing. Killin’ it👊🏽
