Ok thats pretty much what ive been doing except more sets than that, and ive actually been doing hyperextensions not good mornings lol. My hamstrings are more than strong enough to deadlift upper 200s but my back rounds and i dont want to deadlift with bad form. Anything else to strengthen lower back besides hyperextensions, good mornings, and rack pulls?


Just keep doing deadlifts with lower weight. KEEP YOUR LEGS STRAIGHT for optimal lower-back engagement. That is the best way to strengthen yourself for that particular lift.

Hey! Quick question, u have been Savin my butt lately..

I work at a liquor store on the weekends, 8 hour shift 6pm-2am... And I was wondering if there were any drinks I could drink on the job while on keto... All of the ones that don't have carbs at least have citric acid... Any suggestions?

The energy is useful typically when It gets to the late hours, and I just took a ketosis test and I'm testing very high levels, so thanks! I was pumped to see that, even after my mess up last week


When you say drinks, what kind of drinks are you referring to?

For energy, you can try 5 hour energy - they have no citric acid.

If you are talking about alcoholic drinks, you would want to have plain vodka if anything which has 0 carbs. Just watch the total caloric intake. Remember, 8 oz of water for every 1 oz of liquor.

holy shit, thanks! also isnt the yolk bad for you? and 12 eggs is a lot! anyway to switch that out for anything? like a shake in the morning? barely ate 4 this morning lol


No, the yolks are very good for you. It's a common misconception about yolks.

You can switch the eggs out for a 40g protein shake + 2 whole eggs.

Hi,

I'm looking for some advice! I read through a good 20 pages but I was hoping for something a bit more specific to help me! I'm looking to lose weight and improve my fitness / be healthy / have more noticeable muscles (by removing the fat)

Here's my current stats:
24 years old
155 lbs
5'11

I was planning to use your workout on the first page of this thread. I've never really been into lifting weights until recently and I'm trying to research what kinds of weights to use (I prefer to work out at home as much as possible as opposed to the gym). What kinds of weights do you recommend starting with? I find 15KG fairly difficult (for dumbbells) and 10KG is ok. Should I just stick with those? I'm also not really interested in bodybuilding as such, should I skip things like squats (with weights)? I did some research and everywhere says "lift hard, burn fat faster", but I don't want to over do it.

With regards to work out plans, can I achieve what I'm looking for with an hour a day in the early evening and 20 minutes of light exercise in the morning before work? Also my work out every night, should it be before or after dinner?

Regards,

UnHolY^^



Before I go any further...you're 5'11 and 155 and trying to LOSE weight?

Did you mean gain weight?

OK then 5 hour energy and iced coffee are your best bets.

You can add heavy cream and some stevia to the iced coffee

My cousin has recently for the last year developed a low platelet count. I'm suspecting he has ITP, and only recently asked for your advice because his condition is getting worse. His platelet count is always fluctuating and therefore it's hard to pinpoint exactly why this is happening. I'm asking for your help in diagnosing his condition and maybe provide a remedy.

Raynor, how should I go about this:

My current pics are on post #39 here http://forums.d2jsp.org/topic.php?t=61053330&f=60&o=30
Post #1 shows where I was in November last year. Nothing really impressive but I think when I cut for the summer things will look relatively decent (hopefully progress will be good).

My stats are I'm 181 pounds, 5'10 (currently).

I'm currently doing a 10x10 (modified to be a little more like regular lifting). I have a time I want to cut for (mid-late July), since it's summer vacation for a couple weeks. Should I immediately start doing a 5x5 once this week is over for 2 months, then do a 10x10 for a month (taking me into late June), then cut coming into July?

I'm not sure how I should go about this. After my trip is over I want to just get back to training and not worry about appearance so much as strength and muscle gains for a while.
