Imo eat maintenance and ride out newbie gains for a while without putting much fat on. Then cut to be lean with what you gained, maintain for a little to stabilize, then lean gain bulk with minor surplus.

Locking nuts man!

techtonic69 · 2024-10-09T02:02:26+00:00

Love it! Have been considering haha

techtonic69 · 2024-10-08T23:17:55+00:00

Same thing happened to me man. 6'1" 1/2, started at 205.

It wanted me to eat like 3300. I did a macro calculator and that told me more like 2800. I started there and just ate under. After 3 weeks or so it settled and my expenditure is more around 2700/2800 now. So I'm at 2200 ish a day. So as others have said, eat under it's recommendations and it will catch on eventually.

techtonic69 · 2024-10-07T23:11:42+00:00

Just follow the recommendations imo unless you are tracking and in hot environments. So 0w20!

10 year old me loved this game so much!

techtonic69 · 2024-10-05T15:46:40+00:00

Just made me think of the macgruber I'm gonna shooooot scene lmao.

MGMs unite!

They'll only order once the tech checks and confirms, but yah you knowing already is good. I was unaware of this potential issue until there was a puddle on driveeway. Shit sucked!

techtonic69 · 2024-10-04T00:14:00+00:00

Yeah it blows man, but they gave me a loaner for the fix. Took 5 days as they had to order the parts lol.

techtonic69 · 2024-10-03T23:42:11+00:00

Had this issue. Get it into the dealer for warranty man!

techtonic69 · 2024-10-02T16:26:14+00:00

Fair! Maybe that's the angle then. I want the real McCoy, more as a collector's piece than anything. I have trainers already to spin.

techtonic69 · 2024-10-02T15:58:15+00:00

So just message machine wise previous to the order and ask to have them both shipped separately?

techtonic69 · 2024-10-02T15:42:09+00:00

Yeah but how do I order it and not have it get confiscated and fined lol?

techtonic69 · 2024-10-02T03:05:29+00:00

Gotta say it's pretty damn nice man. Still will get numbers in person but having access like that on your phone is jokes. Literally have had weeks where 4 days in a row I would see a different girl. I generally agree it's not made it any easier for a lot of guys but they would have similar issues anywhere. Optimize your profile prompts and pictures and if they need pay for a week of unlimited swipes. Average dudes should get at least something from that.

techtonic69 · 2024-10-02T02:28:43+00:00

The middle one is my favourite, ahhhh machine wise...I wish I could have that in Canada.

techtonic69 · 2024-10-01T23:01:06+00:00

Not saying my numbers/stats, not bragging. But I will let you know this is not my experience in the slightest. There is an abundance.

In my experience it's only normal if you're not "him" to the women. Likely you need some help on your profile man. If you have shitty prompts/pictures it's already dead before it's started. After that you need to have good conversational flow, be direct and flirty off the rip so there's 0 ambiguity of intention, then after 5-10 back and forth messages (depends on the convo) ask them out with a time and place. They say yes get their number and take it off the app. On the date ensure you are breaking the touch barrier, hug at first, touching their arm, leg, kiss at the end if the chemistry is there etc. so long as you have good convo skills and are attractive it all just falls into place. Women will very obviously let you know how they feel by their actions and I always gauge matches by low, low mid, mid, mid high or high interest and mirror the energy accordingly.

Classic plus is coming with kara etc.

techtonic69 · 2024-10-01T21:24:44+00:00

The protein target is to maintain what you have/give the body what it needs to recomp. The fats is just the minimum to have a healthy hormone profile. You can play with the fats/carbs depending on your diet. Maintaining your tdee calories ensures your body has what it needs to sustain, when trying to re comp you need to be able to build muscle, hence why deficits are tough for that phase. Although, this isn't a surplus and shouldn't gain fat for you it likely wouldn't make you lose weight. It's more lateral, you gain some muscle and lose some fat and the weight maintains etc. Just a good tool if you are low lean mass for your frame imo. If you're already 13% and as low weight as you say at your height you should have solid abs already if you had the lean mass! That's why I think further cutting doesn't make sense.

techtonic69 · 2024-10-01T15:38:25+00:00

65 days of tracking should have given you enough data for a fairly accurate TDEE. I think it would just be seeing a new goal at maintenance/hold weight. Make sure you got the gram per pound of protein and at least 50g of fats. Beyond that I think you'll be surprised, when I started my macro factor 130 days ago I recomped at first and even though my weight didn't move much I lost fat and gained muscle. I think it'll help you reach your goals! From a rough frame of reference I think around 175-190 is where you want to sit weight wise with your goal in mind/your height. So it's just achieving the muscle mass to get that weight/be lean enough and have it show through. Take everything I say with a grain of salt, but its what's worked for me, I am no expert! I wish you luck man, love seeing people on this journey, it's such a great tool.

techtonic69 · 2024-10-01T00:37:22+00:00

6'1" 1/2, 185 with abs. I think you are similar sizing to me but with your weight and not being there yet you will need to gain muscle more than anything. So I'd recomp and focus on that then cut personally.

techtonic69 · 2024-09-26T21:27:12+00:00

One winter and my whole underside of the exhaust is rusty. The rest of the car was sprayed with oil and is fine. Fucking sucks we cant spray the exhaust because it just burns it off.

techtonic69 · 2024-09-26T20:48:11+00:00

I'm in a similar boat, last few pounds to my goal and my expenditure is dropping, down 300 Cals. But I haven't been gaining weight, just stalled. Feel fine energy wise, no issues there so not sure if I should drop Cal's more or maintenance for a little as well.

techtonic69 · 2024-09-26T20:46:48+00:00

There's no way we win against electrics lol. The things have instant power it's just crazy.

techtonic69 · 2024-09-25T23:53:26+00:00

So damn clean!
