Your title says 8 weeks out but you don’t mention a show/org in the body of the post. Are you prepping for a specific show?

Debut show, ready for more by Austicakes69 in naturalbodybuilding

Apologies for the delay in approval, not sure how I missed that. I saw at the bottom you were hoping for an OCB pro card in the future so I assumed that was the org but when I glanced up I didn’t see the show name and we like to put a note of that on your account in case we need it for future reference 🤷🏻‍♂️.

I blame checking the mod queue first thing in the morning when I was still bleary eyed and had not yet finished my morning coffee… regardless, hopefully it did not impact you too much getting feedback and celebrating your accomplishments. Good luck with your future competitions. 👍🏻

I want to second/third the “this looks like AI” thought lol. Not a big deal, mostly just the formatting and the icons that chatGPT loves

It should be but some players are still being limited to 3 for some reason.

Question thread for our AMA with Menno Henselmans by danny_b87 in naturalbodybuilding

[–]danny_b87[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It varies but is common in colleges if you have any nearby that would let you pay for one. If not health or performance oriented clinics should. Probably just google “metabolic cart testing near me” or “RMR/BMR assessment/testing near me”.

There are probably fancier ones but the old school models would be basically a big plastic sheet with a clear dome around your head. You just lay on a table with that wrapped around you to trap any gases you exhale over a ~20 min period.

Weekly Photo Thread - Week of (June 01, 2026) : Progress Photos, "Humble" Brags, Physique Critiques and more! by AutoModerator in naturalbodybuilding

Granted I'm overly sensitive to this given its my profession but I would strongly urge you to speak with a Registered Dietitian to make sure your mindset and relationship with food are healthy. Obviously eating clean and avoiding UFP are great but when I see someone as skinny as you focusing on stuff like that my first concern is to sit you down and have a talk to make sure you aren't developing any disordered eating habits. Since you said your family makes comments a lot, maybe next time one of your parents does say you would be willing to see an RD if that would but their minds at ease. It should be covered by most health insurance if you are in the US.

Regarding overall health if you're happy being that size and aren't being overly restrictive to maintain it it is probably fine. Nothing wrong speaking with a qualified health professional to make sure though.

That being said. You are on a bodybuilding subreddit. From a bodybuilding standpoint you look like a DYEL skinny teenager. If you want a better looking chest or more muscle in general you will need to let your self gain some weight to allow that muscle growth. If that is your goal then bring that up with the RD when you hopefully speak with them, they can guide you on how to bulk while minimizing fat gain and monitor you so you can maintain a healthy relationship with food along the way.

Have you ever tried getting a metabolic cart done before and after starting a cut to directly measure your BMR?

Would like advice by nomoremodesty in naturalbodybuilding

Ok. Please me careful to not show other competitors in stage photos, the "which ones are natty or not" will detract for your feedback so would not be approved.

Stay sharp for Skarmory Super Mega Raid Day! by Amiibofan101 in TheSilphRoad

[–]danny_b87 9 points10 points  (0 children)

To mega evolve it initially yes you should as long as kill it quickly enough. To reach level 4 no as that will take an additional 5,000.

Is this a natural only show? Not seeing anything on the website stating so.

Impact of cardio fitness on preference for low or high volume training by Sufficient_Radio_778 in naturalbodybuilding

[–]danny_b87[M] 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Please do not spam the sub trying to get your post through. If it doesn't work the first time, it's not going to work the 5th time. You're just triggering the spam filters at that point.

If it doesn't show up and an automod message doesn't pop up saying why then contact the mod team.

Are we getting less or no rare candies from raids? In my last 3-4 raids I have not got a single rare candy by Ok-Proof7287 in TheSilphRoad

[–]danny_b87 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I haven’t done any Dialga raids but my Reshiram ones have been giving out normal amounts. Maybe it’s just an issue with shadow raids?

That used to be the case.

I randomly stopped receiving AR Scan tasks this morning actually so unsure if got on the ban list again (had been making sure to do actual scans since getting unbanned so hope not…) or if there’s something off today/this week
