[@jackywacky4361]

The #1 thing is planned and structured diet, because the only way for your body to burn fat is to use it as energy. Basically, you need to eat below your energy maintenance level (in terms of calories) and your fat cells will be used to compensate the missing energy (calories). That's how your body works. There are other things to consider as well, such as hormonal status, diseases... but caloric deficit is a must. You have a lot of online diet planners and calculators: Next Level Diet for example (I am not an affiliate 😁). Losing/gaining weight is just a simple math, really...

[@funnyv6048]

Yeah but for most normal people who are busy with their day to day lives (work, family, studying...) tracking calories and macros is a hassle, so we just go for intuitive eating most of the time, we're not preparing for a mister olympia contest anyway so it's all good as long as we are getting stronger and healthier

[@Mateusz950PlayGames950]

@@funnyv6048 I thought the same, but after few months of consistent training I started to count my calories as I want to "cut" on my rest days, and tbh you can count the calories while eating. It takes few minutes at most to weigh the food, but in my opinion it is worth it, for a few weeks at least. I was eating much more than I needed, now even if I stopped counting I could guess it and probably be as close as 300-500 calories difference.

[@AryanSMH]

thanks for the advice king !

[@GrilledChickenRamyun]

I appreciate your brief series. As a novice your videos helps

[@BradYaeger]

Age has a lot to do with it. Up until my mid-20's I could eat as much of whatever I wanted and not gain a pound but now at 57 I have to watch the portions and quality or I get a gut. Going with simple foods really helps me. I make sure all my ingredients only have one ingredient. If I want a huge meal I just make sure to bulk it up with something low cal like salad or quinoa and lean meat. I'm not super strict about it, just make it an overall approach . The greatest diet in the world is no good if you don't stick with it , and it's hard to stick with something you don't enjoy. Same applies to workouts.

[@budgetghostbusters2567]

[@mb-lr8hb]

From my experience diet is the most important. When I get a good 3-4x bodyweight carbs and a good amount of protein pre-workout I have enough energy to do 6-7 pullups but on the average day I can only do 3-4

[@jonathanelliott4577]

My breakfast and lunch are usually great, but dinner is harder to control because I don't cook that. I do think it's at least important to not only take in a good amount of protien during the day, but also try to not overeat at dinner time.

[@differentone_p]

i eat of any whole grain, eggs, vegetables and a piece of a bread 4-5 times a day. Sometimes there's butter on a bread. Sometimes i eat peanuts. It's very cheap diet, but because I can't afford anything better.

[@shinsouhitoshi9811]

Since I am just a teenager and I live with my parents, I dont have the choice to make a diet. I just eat what my mom makes. Its healthy and rich but it nutrients varies as she doesnt make protein rich foods everyday, like chicken. Is that enough for muscle growth? (Also I do avoid snacks completely)

[@___whateverr]

you will get muscle growth but it's not optimal

[@kyosalvador8778]

just ask to add like extra eggs or smth

[@mrknarf4438]

Help your mom in the kitchen, be the one that cooks meals at times: you will get a better understanding of food, bond with her and she will be grateful for the help and time you spend together, alongside being able to sneak in protein-rich meals more often. In the meantime learn about nutrition, how to read nutrition labels and the like. Snack on protein-rich food if your daily intake isn't enough (tuna, chicken, ham and the likes); then once you have a good feel of which foods are good and which aren't, once you're grown accustomed to reading labels help you mom while she's buying food (it's very important to check calories, but also the amount of protein; the amount of sugar; the amount of fibres). Your whole house will eat healthier because of you. If they refuse to change their habits: start buying your own food, cooking your own meals.

[@smileorgobyebye6330]

Learn to cook. Ask your mom to teach you. Learning to cook will not only help with gains, but is also a valuable life skill in general.

[@bullypetermaguire5633]

I'm leaving on vacation soon after being on a calorie deficit for so long. What should I do to maintain my physique while enjoying myself at the same time?

[@oldieANDgoldie]

Enjoy your vacation, don't deprive yourself from eating what you might not usually get to experience when you're home, but be mindful. Maybe pick the smaller portion if it's calorically dense. If there's a beef vs chicken option, go for the chicken on as it will most likely be lower Kcals etc. Something I do when I go on vacation is packing some whey portions (2 scoops in individual plastic bags i can just pop into my shaker in the morning) and have them every other day or so since protein is the hardest macro to hit when you're on vacation and not being able to track. Other then that, enjoy your deserved break and show off those gains my man!

[@bellatrixlestrange7530]

First of all, a week of vacation is not enough to ruin the physique that you built with months of hard work. So my advice is to prioritise having a good time and exploring local foods. That being said, modifications are key. Obviously you will not be able to count calories, but you can roughly estimate if you're overdoing it (for example it is different to eat a burger with cheddar, bacon, fatty sauces and lots of fries, and to eat a chicken burger loaded with veggies and lighter sauces. Another example would be the dessert-you can enjoy a frozen yoghurt or a smaller sized ice cream, instead of a big cake). Finally, beware of the hidden calories in alcohol. You absolutely can have fun and enjoy some drinks, but there is no point overdoing it, and instead of high calorie cocktails (that contain whiskey, rum, syrups and sugar), you can enjoy some lighter drinks (for example beer, wine, gin, vodka, with low calorie soda). In that way, even if you end up in a caloric surplus for some days, it won't be enough to ruin your physique and you will feel good and ready to jump back in your training. You do you and have fun!

[@AhmadLmoroccain]

[@arindika1]

You can try to eat maintenance calories and just fit anything you want into that budget. Although it's true that one week of eating in a surplus won't affect your physique if you're already muscular.

You are supposed to know amount of fat/ calories/ protien your diet contains not just eat anything and say it's making you fat, get your BMR done and see how much calories you need to maintain if you eat more than that you will gain weight if you eat less than that you will loose weight.

[@aitwayagher8605]

I stopped counting and measuring, too time consuming. Funny enough, I actually make more gains and got leaner from just eyeballing what i need from a day to day basis. If I have a hard workout going in I eat a bit more, restday; eat a bit less. I even substantially lowered the total amount of protein intake yet I got in better shape than with calculating and measuring.

[@Matheus_Braz]

Glad to know eyeballing is a possibility

[@aitwayagher8605]

@@Matheus_Braz I think when you’ve done the counting and measuring and figure out your body a little bit, what influences you the most and stuff like that, it is perfectly possible.

[@Dominik-un5qt]

Not even 50g ? Bruh wtf

[@akshaiambro702]

If you think it makes sense take the advice, or else ignore it. Split whatever you are eating into 4 to 5 meals, and maintain the same, no matter what, for weeks on end consistently, your patience will pay off from the 3rd week. Don't strees too much about protein, especially the number part, your body don't know what a gram is. Eat whatever you can eat, even if it's 2 boiled eggs a day, eat it everyday, eat enough calorie surplus to let your body build what you're breaking in the gym. For the training part, reduce your volume, don't do bro splits, either go for PPL or total body. Don't do 5 workouts for a body part , but do 2 to 3 workouts for a body part but in 2 different days in a week, aka hit it twice. Introduce a rest day or two in between lifting days. Main focus should be on consistency in whatever little protein you eat a day, calories surplus, training to failure, sleep and recovery. You'll surely see progress. Sorry for long comment ✊

Yes, the lack of protein intake and constant training will result in a very emaciated physique. Your strength will be sub par. Your muscle hypertrophic response will be very poor and overall you'll simply not get the result you need and infact may end up damaging your physique due to excessive stimuli without sufficient recovery.
