So i must hit the right macros of protein every day and i dont have any problem,right?the macros that you told me :)
so basically,if i train on an empty stomach (15 min of cardio,more like warm-up and then 1 hour weight lifting) i just have to eat for post workout protein and carbs(slow digesting carbs or normal?),right?Or maybe i can have a protein shake asap after my workout and after 30 minutes food?


Correct....as long as your activity level remains the same and you get enough sleep.

You just have to eat protein technically....carbs are not required.

its safe to do chest/bis or back/tris in the morning on a empty stomach, followed by 20min hiit? for cutting ofc


Absolutely. There is no problem there.

would you go as far to say its benefiical when cutting?

also those tortillas i showed u, any chance you got any ideas of good foods to make that would be suitable for cutting using those tortillas? i only make chicken/egg/bacon burritos with salsa (salsa amount i use contains 4g of carbs) and chicken quesdillas.

thanks

It would be beneficial, but just as much as any other routine with HIIT at the end.

Tortillas in general are not my specialty. However, you could try mini pizzas (mostly ground beef on top of the tortilla with a ton of cheese and some sauce.

hey buddy,the macros that u told me are 40-30-30 and 1700-1800kcal
today i took protein powder,now my question is,that the 170-180g protein/day,should be only from food (for example 170g protein from food and +1-2 scoop of whey so basicaly 210g protein) or 180g protein with protein powder count?and when i must drink my protein shake?
:D

How come the lower your body fat %, the slower the fat loss?

Can you give the PHYSIOLOGICAL reason why?

Like if a person is from a 500-1000 calorie deficit, at 25% fat, they will lose quite quickly... but the same calorie deficit in someone with 10% fat, why is it slower?? Same deficit, how can your body hold onto that fat with such a deficit..? And make it such a slow process.... I know physiologically for survival purposes it tries to hold onto the fat.. but with that same deficit.. how is it holding onto that fat, in being in the - zone?

you've said calories we need are on a daily basis, eg 24 hours. so if we calculated how many calories we need for a 24 hour period and ate that many every 23 hours, we'd slowly gain weight? and if we ate that every 25 hours, we'd slowly lose weight? is it just a coincidence that our digestion system completes in the amount of time it takes the earth to rotate exactly once? or is that evolutionary?

Total, INCLUDING protein shakes. (180g protein)

The best time for the protein shake is post workout.

Many reasons.

1. As you lose body fat, your deficit changes. You need to reduce calories more as your weight decreases to achieve the same deficit.

2. Certain body types are predisposed to a certain BF %, ie: mesomorphs, endomorphs, ectomorphs, and combinations thereof. Some body types are genetically resistant to fat loss past a certain point (this is most likely survival based).

3. As body fat and total weight decreases, assuming you reduce calories further, and keep exercise levels the same, fat loss can also stall from body adaptation. The only solution to this is shocking the system either with a re-feed and followed up with much larger deficit/exercise routine.

4. Past a certain percentage, somewhere between 8-12%, the human body tends to try to hold onto fat for insulation and shock absorption, as well as backup energy source in time of fasting. This, like #2, is biological, and can not be "changed" per se.

5. Body chemical/hormonal balances play a huge role in this - too much estrogen can easily cause fat loss to stall. Too much testosterone can cause other adverse effects, however, fat loss will be easier.
