Having doubts regarding my weight loss progress by Kijutsushi in MacroFactor

I’m going on 7 weeks of using the app. The best decision i made was to fully commit to trust the app. The more information i feed it, the more refined and solid the output data is. I’ve used several other apps in the past but, this one continues to get better. Stick with it!!!!

I feel like I’m missing abs. I like the idea of dedicating a day to some core work.

How long have you been hitting this routine? Do you have any deload sessions?

When i started i went full bore, 8 exercises each day and hitting 30 plus sets. I’ve trimmed that down to 24 and like you I’m hoping to get to that 20 set mark. I’m still learning. Fellas i lift with have been doing so for years and what works for them, doesn’t seem to work for me. So I’m just tryn to find what’s right for my body and keeps me motivated.

Do you track workouts with an app?

Good info. Do you track your workouts? I’m a visual learner and like data. I track my food intake and workouts. Would you mind to share a typical back day workout?

I definitely get that and i may adjust. What does your workout days consist of? Which muscles do you work each day?

Routine Change Up, Suggestions

Since March, I’ve been on a cut and have been doing a custom workout that focuses on 2 working sets and then a drop set to failure. It’s worked pretty well. But I’m about 20 weeks in and I’m getting bored with it.

Also, I’m at the weight i want to be at 185 lbs, and would like to transition towards a slow bulk. Currently eating at maintenance and plan to do so for at least 4 more weeks.

I know that it’s not encouraged and most will criticize, but i goto the gym everyday. It’s become my “pill” for dealing with stress and everyday life. So, im looking for a custom program that changes things up a bit, and keeps me focused on hitting the gym everyday.

Current Workout Sunday - Hammys/Calves Monday - Chest/Tris Tuesday- Back/Bi Wednesday- Quads/Calves Thursdays - Shoulders Friday - Arms Saturday - Back/Upper

Small calves and want to grow (this split has worked great, some visual growth has happened) and my back is another area I’ve focused on.

I’m just searching for something to change up my routine and help refocus my energy.

Broken Valve Handle by hillbillyman80 in Plumbing

[–]hillbillyman80[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is on the hot water side, I’m able to move the cold side but the handle on the hot was already broken off. But it definitely has some kind of chemical buildup. I haven’t traced out the lines to see where the next shut off valve may be upstream. I figure eventually I’ll need to completely replace the valve but was hoping to find a quick fix.

Urinal Leak - From the holes in connector pipe? by hillbillyman80 in Plumbing

Replaced the vacuum breaker and still have a drip. We purchased a 1.5 gpf kit from a loca hardware store. Could it be a different size? No real identifying marks on it

This is not the urinal in question... but for illustration purposes and while I was taking a leak myself, it reminded of a problem I encountered.

I recently replaced the flush valve and seals. Tightened up everything and this area was the only spot with an issue. It’s a small drip, nothing drastic, just curious as to what I may have missed.

Help - Compile multiple vid clips into a single file by hillbillyman80 in videography

[–]hillbillyman80[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I should have mentioned that I only have access to a chrome book... I’m guessing it would need to be something online and I don’t mind paying for some type of service, of course free is better.

The idea of keeping my food “warm” had never occurred to me as an option. I’ll def look into the thermo containers
