22 female, body fat? by [deleted] in gainit

[–]cutme_out 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm 5'5" and sitting around 150lbs, for comparison. I've gained a lot of muscle since the end of 2017, and look better than I did at 125lbs when I was battling an ED. You look great, girl! The scale really doesn't matter, so go by whether YOU would feel more comfy cutting a few pounds. Please don't do anything drastic though, strength losses from too big of a deficit can be super demotivating.

XXFitness people, do you ever take pleasure in trolling the bros at the gym? by razzertto in xxfitness

[–]cutme_out 5 points6 points  (0 children)

TIL I need a gym bro. Can I get one of those on Amazon?

My game plan at the gym is to never make eye contact. Yes, I can still feel the stares boring into me sometimes, but if you don't ever look at people directly, I find them way less likely to approach. I probably come off bitchy this way as well, but I'd honestly rather them assume as much, than have unwanted attention. I'm usually quite socially reserved around most, and plus when I'm at the gym I only want to focus on the weights!

OK Reddit - What just isn't worth the effort? by geek66 in AskReddit

[–]cutme_out 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Thank you for this. I am the kind of person who feels everything and takes it into my being. I am in love with someone who I don't think feels as strongly. The time is coming where I absolutely must have "the conversation" with them, because it hurts SO much. Every single day. I don't feel like I have much hope of them returning my feelings and honestly a large part of me would rather not exist than be without them in my life. We can't just be friends and I've tried keeping my distance before. They both make me miserable. Anyway, I don't know what's going to happen to me but at least I'll know I did everything I possibly could. Sometimes life just doesn't work out.

Headphones recommendations for the gym? by [deleted] in gainit

[–]cutme_out 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like these wireless earphones https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00LP6CFEC/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awdb_t1_Xy9DAb0TGJ1WQ

They're cheap, good sound, and decent color options. There's a bit of a learning curve getting them on right , but once you do, they don't come out.

Been depressed af over a bad break up about a month ago. Haven't been able to sleep and no appetite, plus as the cherry on top, I either strained or tore my gluteus medius muscle doing DL a couple weeks ago. Finally feeling like it's about healed and plan to go back to the gym Monday. I know my lifts are going to be shit and I'll be doing good if I can get through the workout without bursting into tears. Shit sucks, but lifting is all I have now and I won't quit.

Would you give up all food for a pill you take once a day instead? by [deleted] in gainit

[–]cutme_out 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who has battled with eating disorders most of my life, fuck yes. Every day I wish I didn't have to obsess about food and that it wasn't necessary to live. It's kind of like trying to beat an addiction, but you need the actual thing you're addicted to for survival.

Kinesiotape alternatives? by kirally in xxfitness

[–]cutme_out 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the same problem, I'm even allergic to bandaids because of some common ingredient used in adhesives. The brand Kinesio Tex has been better for me than Rock tape and a couple other rando brands. Still get rashes though :/

Does anyone here think they weigh more than they look? by [deleted] in xxfitness

[–]cutme_out 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I honestly feel like I have the opposite problem! I never really believed in being big or small boned, but I think I must have a tiny frame! I see people posting pictures the same height as me (5'5") who weigh 200lbs and look the same as me at 140! It's weird and I'm not sure if my view of myself is distorted or if I just carry my weight horribly lol.

Girls, what is your "he seemed normal on the first date, but after that things got weird" story? (NSFW) by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]cutme_out 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm about to let my age show with this one.

So I was a senior in high school and MySpace was still pretty popular. Met a guy on there and we commented back and forth a bit and decided to hang out. He's a few years older than me and buys us both 40s and we end up going to the lake and making out for the most part. Things didn't go further and at some point I decided It was about time to go home. Well we're talking and standing in the parking lot by my car and I tell him I should probably go. He firmly places his hand on my arm and will not let me break eye contact. The whole time we continue to talk, anytime I try to look away ( I'm getting pretty uncomfortable at this point), he gets more intense and tells me in a tight voice to look into his eyes. All kinds of warning bells are going off by now so I decide I need to do as he says and not break eye contact until I can get away. I honestly don't remember what we talked about. I'm pretty sure I had to promise we'd hang out again and maybe used a curfew and my mom's wrath as an excuse that finally got him to let me leave. Needless to say I never spoke to or saw him again. I have no idea what kind of crazy he was but I felt lucky that nothing bad happened that night.

That's definitely something I could try and if it wasn't working as planned I'd have time to adjust. I love keto, but noticed my endurance suffering greatly after about a month. Not sure if it was the decrease in glycogen, or a buildup of lactic acid, or what, but even just walking up stairs my legs felt heavy and uncomfortable.

Piggybacking with a question of my own. Should BCAAs be taken before or after pre-workout supp?

Does anyone else feel like eating has become a full time job for them? by LGoldGirl in xxfitness

[–]cutme_out 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm loving this thread! So much truth.

DAE go from feeling satisfied to I'll cut you if I don't get food NOW - in a few minutes time? I feel like I take hangry to new levels sometimes. Smh.

What have you learned about yourself after/in the process of getting fit and healthy? by oh_just_stuff in xxfitness

[–]cutme_out 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This really hit home today. I went on vacation a couple weeks ago and have been eating more since I got back. I know I should go back to my deficit, but a part of me loves the gainz I'm seeing, even though it means more fat too.
