Thanks for clearing that up! This where a lot of people (including myself) go wrong.

[@jaycarmona]

I’ve been looking for someone to dumb this down in such a way that makes it easy to internalize. So many channels wayyy overcomplicate this. Thanks coach greg!

[@sjbr101]

I'm 6'2" 260lb on 2400 calories a day, losing 4lbs of fat a week, spending 2 hours a day 6 days a week in the gym. I've visibly gained muscle around my arms, legs and neck, my stomach/chest is too fat to see pecks or abs but I can feel they are way bigger. Just one thing, burning makes my sweat smell like piss🤮... bright side, at least I get to train alone 😃

[@jimmyrade7815]

You are pissing and breathing out all that weight. Good work

[@jrippon]

@Simon Russell That smell is ammonia. Means your body is burning protein. May be because your diet has too much protein/not enough carbs or may be more serious e.g. diabetes or kidney problems.

[@hakimmohammed3910]

get it checked out piss smelling sweat is ammonia u might be taking in too much protein or you have other health issues u should get checked out
