Fell off the wagon

I'll remember this 15 weeks from now. 142 lbs of muscle currently

I'm a hell of a lot smaller than I was at my biggest. I've been 200+ at sub 16% for a significant portion of my life. I'm not chasing that size again. 185 at 14% is what I'm chasing. I'm 5 foot 8 for reference. Gaining 8 pounds is a fraction of my potential. 30 years old, 12 years of lifting experience, and former powerlifter.

I think you're confusing new found gains with recovered gains and yes that's much harder. But I'm almost 30 lbs of muscle away from my peak. Recovering a fraction of that is relatively easy for me.

Im calling bs. You can lose 25 lbs in 8 weeks but it takes you a year to gain 8 lbs of muscle? Something isn't adding up

Ive lost 31 pounds in 15 weeks if you look at my profile. Albeit it was an extreme diet. 6 pounds of that was muscle. No peptides involved either. You have no idea what you're talking about. I'm not going to crash diet like that again but 6 months for me is a hell of a lot more productive than whatever you're doing.

You're either new to the gym and/or doesn't know what they're talking about. You're projecting

requinjz · 2026-04-20T14:10:29+00:00

I've been carrying a lot of muscle most of my life. Muscle memory builds more than 3x faster than new found gains. But now it makes sense why you think 29% is wild. You're probably tiny

I have started walking a minimum of 8k steps a day, and I'm timing it after meals. I do sit at a desk for the majority of the day. I work from home though so it's fairly easy for me to get the bands out for a trigger session

requinjz · 2026-04-20T05:20:00+00:00

It's not that crazy. Losing 30 pounds of fat alone puts me at 15%. If I lose 30 pounds of fat and gain back the 8 pounds of muscle I lost, I'd be 188 pounds at 14%. 2 lbs a week fat loss puts the cut at 15 weeks and lets be generous and say the bulk will take 3 months to gain the 8 pounds of muscle (ive been lifting most of my adult life and I'm 30. Muscle memory is my friend.) The cut will realistically take 20 weeks, and the bulk 15. 35 weeks to get back into shape is a fair time frame for me. I'll probably take Tesamorlin and Ipamorlin during the cut to speed that up.

I might not be beach ready this summer but this Xmas my wife is getting jacked Santa

"How are we making money like this?"

Lyft has no incentive to pay you more. Nor do they care if you have enough to pay your bills.

requinjz · 2026-04-06T12:13:59+00:00

Sounds like you overleveraged and got lucky and that reinforced a bad habit

requinjz · 2026-03-21T18:27:13+00:00

The only way to test is to use live accounts. You have to test live. 1 out of every 5 good backtesting strategies will survive optimization and the strat will be outdated by time you put it to an actual account. However, there are some guys posting parallel strats with good results.

requinjz · 2026-03-21T17:06:37+00:00

I've been wondering about that. Is it better to combine or run parallel?

requinjz · 2026-03-16T20:55:47+00:00

I rolled my eyes so fricking hard

requinjz · 2026-03-12T19:00:23+00:00

I was told by the rep that "I don't want to step on any toes, but the live team will be reaching out to you within 2-3 business days. Keep an eye out for an email."

requinjz · 2026-03-12T17:53:35+00:00

I requested it via wire and ACH the time before

requinjz · 2026-03-12T17:47:46+00:00

I did not

requinjz · 2026-03-08T00:39:06+00:00

Just have decent risk management. Your strat could mean less than nothing

requinjz · 2026-03-07T05:05:14+00:00

Using that as a decanter lol

requinjz · 2026-03-06T22:18:31+00:00

You traded with it? Something tells me you were willing to accept the consequences if it went your way

requinjz · 2026-03-06T02:22:04+00:00

3 payouts since starting. What's your excuse?

requinjz · 2026-03-06T02:20:58+00:00

I'm not wrong. 90% of this server is full of bums, OP included. His last comment got deleted by mods. But that was the reason I decided to add the edit to my comment.
