I love to hear this!! I am a petite person and my maintenance is like 2300. it does not make sense on paper but it's real! I see so many women my age hardly eating and can't get rid of 20-30lbs!
I needed to hear this. I’m currently trusting these guys. I’m doing my first bulk. I’ve been trying to lose the last 20lbs for well over a year. I got to the point where I could not lose weight unless I literally starved myself (fasting) . All while being an avid weight lifter but I never done an intentional bulk. I’m 1.5 month into the bulk I’ve gained some weight but it’s manageable. I’m going to keep bulking until next year. 💪
@@facesbylucy ive noticed several women have said that. I talk alot about nutrition and women that don't eat, even on dates, I'll ask why are you not eating we can order something else? It happened more with kinda chubby girls it was because they wanted to eat less, but they just gained weight and stayed chubby. I was suspicious that maybe they didn't workout enough 🤔 Then petite girls would eat ridiculous, and didn't gain weight , I would ask you must workout...to my surprise they didn't or not nearly as the chubby girls did. I think its more complicated for women, than for men. can I ask what your diet is like, what do you normally eat?
Recently started my reverse diet journey. Started at 1700 and now I’m at 2100 💪 goal is to get to 2500. Still battling through the fear of gaining weight (after years of yo-yo dieting) but listening to you guys has helped me keep pushing through. Can’t thank the Mind Pump team enough 👏
Thank you for everything you do! I'll be 56 in a couple weeks and I've been resistance training and reverse dieting for 3 months (after decades of yoyo and lo cal diets) I can't believe my transformation and all my friends are freaking lol. Definitely newbie gains but my upper body is definitely popping! Thank you
Tuning into your show is always a great listen. Fitness, family, life and health advice with a great dose of humour. I just joined the forum and it's so great to see how many folks are part of the community. Thank you all for helping people like me reclaim their health!
I’ve only been listening for eight weeks and in those eight weeks you guys have CHANGED MY LIFE. I can’t even imagine how different things will be a year from now, five years from now, ten years, etc. I’m so grateful I found you guys cause now I feel like I’m so much closer to feeling like I will be an awesome wife and mother some day! I have so much energy to get things done now. I’m so much happier. I’m eternally grateful to you guys, that even if I find your doppelgangers, I will thank them too 😂 I have mad respect for you guys! 💯💪
1:20:50 same as Justin, I hate sitting too long. 15 minutes tops unless I'm super reclined like in a movie theater. Need to walk around every few minutes
@@hockeymomavalon2499 my friends always want to meet at a restaurant. I'd rather do something more active (with them), the food part is easy just swing by a chipotle or whatever. People should be activity-centered, not food-centered.
thank you guys for all your content! great episode! i was eating 1200 calories and now with all your tips i’m hitting 4000 and feeling more stronger! and doing PR’s like deadlift 455, squat 315 and bench 300! you guys change my life 💪 really appreciate it
Hi Mind Pump. Some days the body just hurts and I’m so grateful to have you in my life. When it’s time to take a break, you’re a real comfort-just a handful of dudes sharing life-changing advice. You entertain me and motivate me to make better life choices. ❤
I can’t get enough! Every morning before I start my daily grind, it’s coffee, walk, mind pump episode. 😂 Thank you for all you do. You guys are amazing!!!
I found you guys about a month ago and have been listening to you daily. Not only has your content verified and explained my constant yo-yo results, but has completely changed the way I view cardio and my metabolism. You have articulated exactly why I have been so up and down my entire life with prioritising cardio over strength training, and the implications this has had on my metabolism. I've reduced calories time and time again to lose body fat through my own unconscious incompetence where I have unknowingly lowered my maintenance and caused a bigger problem. Many thanks from Australia.
“Everybody can lose weight but who can keep it off”. Well said! I’ve struggled with weight/fat fluctuations until I found you guys and have been steadily leaning out since! I appreciate the information you guys put out here. -A broke ass university student lmao
Thank you for the reminder to deload and reverse diet! A few weeks into a cut and pushing workouts, and my body is tired and sore. It needs some love. Why is it easier to listen to you than to myself 🤔?
They say once an addict always an addict , you just replace the compulsive addiction from crazy cardio’s and dieting , to listening to mind pump teachings : Strength training and reverse dieting .! 🙏🏼💯
I just started watching the show a few weeks ago, you guys have literally changed my life. I’m really surprised at how fast I have achieved my body and health goals just by taking your advice on compound exercises and increasing my protein intake. I eat a lot more, yet I’m losing more fat and building muscle despite my busy mom life. Thanks for all you do👏
I started lifting at 1,400 kcal maintenance weighing ~118lbs at 5'8. Four years later, I'm sitting at 140lbs and my maintenance is now 2,600-2,800 and I have to increase that even more if I'm more active on certain days (I have a pretty active job). Lifting is amazing, I basically eat whatever I want (obviously within reason and while making mostly healthy choices) and I feel the best I've ever felt.
You guys are awesome!! I've been watching you guys since the spring. For years I've cutting my calories extremely low and doing tons of cardio and struggling with weight loss. I've discovered you guys in August. Now I cut out all the cardio..and just lift weights.. its amazing me how my body is slowly changing for the better..thank you all so much!🤝👏
Hey, a friend of mine put me on to your show and now I’m addicted. You’ve helped me tweak a few things in my diet and now I’m more focused on transforming my body at 46 years of age. I am down 26 lbs and still got about 8 0 more to go, but I’m exited to get there because I now have the tools. Thanks.
Thanks for the conversation gents. Taking a break and enjoying the fruits of your labor in an extended maintenance phase is such an amazing level of freedom. The old adage "freedom is not free" applies to health and fitness as well.
I found you guys about a month ago. Little bit about me I’m 47 and lifted and played sports my whole life from wrestling, football and baseball since i was a kid then tad an adult Russian sambo, jits, boxing, Muay Thai, grappling, mma for 11 years and rugby for a few years. 5 years ago I switched jobs. I went from being a residential hvac service tech to a commercial refrigeration tech and it quickly turned in to 100+ hours a week, stress, no sleep, stopped eating enough because I was missing my family so I started drinking every day to deal with it. Six months ago I quit and went back to being a residential service tech and couldn’t be happier. I’ve stopped drinking I’m eating again and instead of joining the gym again I decided to do the home gym to include my wife and kids. I’ve decided not to program this time and use maps. I’m going to get maps bands for my wife and kids to start but which program would you recommend for me? Thank you for all you do and Keep up the great work guys
I’ve been on a diet my whole life ! Even with a certified nutrition coach, two years ago, i was totally uneducated and put all my focus and motivation on the trend : move more, eat less. Which at some point, just lead me to failure ! I am so thankful, i found your podcast ! Now i only get to eat good whole foods (mainly protein bosed) and building strength and muscle ! I have no scale and only rely on mesurements and picture progress. Greatest mental health i’ve been in years ! THANK YOU SO MUCH !
I love mind pump so much, I’ve learned so much from you guys, I’ve grown so much thanks to you all and I’ve gotten my husband and sister in law addicted to you guys just like I am 😂😂. I love you guys ❤❤
First off. Happy birthday Adam! This episode resonates with me so much, was beating myself 7 days a week by increasing activities before strating listening to you guys. Now i know better
I randomly stumbled on you guys through fb shorts and gotta say yall confirmed what it took me years to learn through trial and error what’s the best way to grow muscle the proper way . I dialed my volume and increased intensity and focused on deload weaks, recovery and keep it simple stupid grow muscle and don’t get lost focusing on macros and just focus on protein intake. Lost good amount of fat and gained serious muscle
I like these guys because they are average joes just like me when the cameras turn off. It comes out during the other 30 minutes of the podcast when they talk about their lives. That’s why a listen and take their advice.

Hi guys yes this is exactly it sustainably! I have been yoyo dieting for several years. Im on the 11 th time. Ive lost and gained several pounds back. I started focusing on strength💪. I still feel like I need to add more to my diet calorie wise. This is awesome information. Ive been watching your channel and educating myself on this approach which is very different to many others. The others concentrate on lack. Your approach concentrates on strength. Thank you.
Once again! I feel better listening after listening to your show! I’ve been addicted to Mind Pumo for the past year! It all makes so more more sense and you all are so natural delivering information that I believe in. You guys have been there done that and therefore are reputable. Thank you.
Thank you for faithfully sharing this message. I do need to hear it over and over again, especially when the fear of bulking creeps in. Favorite podcast!!
I feel like a copy machine after reading all these comments. I too was stuck at yoyo dieting. I have been overweight my whole life. My dad's side of the family are all morbidly obese with a plethora of health issues. I have always been afraid of falling into that trap. I was always focused on a number. After years of eating 1200 calories, listening to mind pump changed my life. I am reverse dieting and weightlifting 3-5 times a week and am currently at 1950 calories and have not gained a pound. I am shocked to see that. Before, I would eat out one day and gain like 5 pounds. I have just reached 1950 calories a week ago and am wondering how long to stay at maintenence before cutting to revamp my metabolism?
Yes, I was misled, too. Love is a choice. Wish I would’ve learned that sooner. But glad that I found the man I’m married to today, who led me to that information. ♥️
Biochemist here. I can confirm it's HARD AS HELL. Biochemistry is broken down into 2 classes for spring and fall semester that's very intense and even then they rush alot of things skim over things. I highly recommend study chemistry
Great topic. I was down to 700 calories a day and could not maintain my weight. It was insane. I am reverse dieting and lifting now. Trusting you guys.
My one client had lost about 20lbs on her own but hit a plateau. When I started working with her she had only been eating 1500 calories. Over the following months I put her on a standard reverse diet, she literally lost more weight while increasing her calories than she did before. Now her maintenance is about 2200/2300 and she's lost almost 50lbs!!! From 210 to 166! Now just about all the people I work with, I put them on a reverse diet first. It just makes cutting so much easier when the only way you're overeating, is if you actively try to overeat!
Re: Arranged Marriages - I think a large part of the success is just realizing that "This is how it is", and not fighting yourself over it. Sometimes "Choice" creates anxiety to "make a choice". Did I choose wrong, did I miss something, did i miss out on something, did someone do better just by waiting for mr/mrs right. The other 1/2 is that sometimes "We've Chosen", but that choice isn't available to us - the rich person, the beautiful person, the person with the perfect sense of humor.. And then we are presented with a lesser choice... Are we settling? Are we not trying hard enough? At the end of the day, being American, I want that choice. But I think on the average it creates a societal swirl, and some of it is unhappy. But that's OK.
Enjoy watching the show after getting out of work. Very informative. Never heard of reverse dieting but now I know. It’s crazy about the metabolic pathway. Thanks for all the info.
I'm a week away from finishing MAPs Anabolic adv. Planned to to performance next to get ready for ski season. #powerlift would be a great program to run in the spring g
I am really appreciative of this information and I am starting to apply this in my life. I have basically been overweight for my entire life and have lost around 100 pounds three times just since 2012. When I started my recent weight loss journey in late 2020, I was on a cut until 2022, got down to 152 pounds (from 270+) until it felt like I bounced off a wall. I am now switching to eating a bit more and more muscle building workouts.
I personally think the reason building muscle increases your metabolism is purely sending the muscle building signal via weight training, it just takes a lot of calories to recover and build. This sounds stupid but I literally feel it. After a hard leg day I just feel my body absorbing all the nutrients and I’m super hungry. Even if you have a lot of muscle, if you don’t send that muscle building signal your metabolism won’t be as high, for example if you take a week off you’ll burn less calories
I was undereating and overtraining but I didn't realize it. I decided to do a "bulk" starting this month by increasing my calories to 2700 and cutting back my workout splits and doing MAPS. My calculations should be adding .5 to 1lbs a week and I discovered I am losing weight LOL apparently my body is super happy about more food and intentional training vs tons of cardio and random weight lifting splits. I even look better!
Transcend has me on enclomiphene and hcg after a bodybuilding show I did (natural, no TRT or anything). Tanked my T levels. So far this protocol seems to be working excellent. I will do blood work again in about 2-3 weeks so see the results on paper.
Totally true I went from 168 to 160 and gained about 10 pounds of lean mass in a year and have increased calories roughly 800-1000 calories per day by the end of the year
@46:45 many experts have stated that taking anabolics actually upregulate androgen receptors so the thought that you need to go off to resensitize them is completely false.
I never thought I would get to the point where eating food is becoming a chore. I'm really focusing on building strength throughout the winter and doing a slight bulk. I'm at like 3200 calories with 200 grams of protein (I'm 6'4 245ish ) and some days I struggle to get in my last meal, typically it's even a small meal because I eat a big breakfast and lunch. I should probably do a mini cut or something.
Still watching but that concept of eating more and moving less does trip me up every time and I do cut off the morons Sal 😂 I'm working my way back to maintenance which will kinda be a build because I've never eaten so much before! I know for a fact I always liked how I looked my best in while maintenance. Thanks for the continuing education on fitness fellas.
In the Muslim community is typical marriage arrangements … I wish I had reverted at younger age for now I am divorced and the older I get the harder it is to meet someone … THANK YOU guys for do all this podcasts that are health in general mental emotional, physical and spiritual you guys are AMAZING may God multiply your. Kindness 10 times fold … sending love to you and your families
The most confusing thing for me was and is the statement you have to be in a caloric deficit. What does that even mean for me? There are a million calorie calculators. What about focusing on protein. Is it based BMR or RMR then activity on top of that which can change day to day. What is reverse dieting? In last couple of months I've gained Muscle/bone denstiy (aka muscle density?), gained weight, lost body fat, body composition similar? So confused
Shit bro I’ve been doing eat more move more since the beginning of October and I’ve put on 10 lbs and look leaner and fuller! 600+ grams of carbs a day haha
Arranged marriages also have alot of abuse in them. There is also the view of getting married first THEN dating and getting to know each other but many times it doesn't work.
I was eating 1000 to 1200 calories. Started building muscle and reverse dieting . I'm at 2600 now. TRUST THESE GUYS. ❤
This was the mistake I made, lost 40 pounds gained most of it back.

This sounds stupid but I literally feel it. After a hard leg day I just feel my body absorbing all the nutrients and I’m super hungry. Even if you have a lot of muscle, if you don’t send that muscle building signal your metabolism won’t be as high, for example if you take a week off you’ll burn less calories
Thanks you guys….Always a great listen! ❤
Awesome stuff as always 🚀🚀
Love y’all! Would love the program haha
Entered!
I learned I had low testosterone 6 months ago. I’m in my mid 30s and went on the protocol (enclomiphene) and doubled my testosterone in a few months.
New Mind Pump! Boom 💥
I was undereating and overtraining but I didn't realize it. I decided to do a "bulk" starting this month by increasing my calories to 2700 and cutting back my workout splits and doing MAPS. My calculations should be adding .5 to 1lbs a week and I discovered I am losing weight LOL apparently my body is super happy about more food and intentional training vs tons of cardio and random weight lifting splits. I even look better!
Transcend has me on enclomiphene and hcg after a bodybuilding show I did (natural, no TRT or anything). Tanked my T levels. So far this protocol seems to be working excellent. I will do blood work again in about 2-3 weeks so see the results on paper.
You guys never disappoint 👍🙌
Totally true I went from 168 to 160 and gained about 10 pounds of lean mass in a year and have increased calories roughly 800-1000 calories per day by the end of the year
I think that Zubac From the LA Clippers looks like Adam!
Thank you 🙏🏾
I move more and eat more
Come on, Andrew! Adam's go to: "Doug, maybe you pull that up for me." 😂
@46:45 many experts have stated that taking anabolics actually upregulate androgen receptors so the thought that you need to go off to resensitize them is completely false.
We need more fun content like the Ice Bath challenge. Please Guyz 🙏
What a great episode!
Would love maps powerlift💪💪
I love this podcast... sometimes it's all about fitness and sometimes it's about a little of everything😂
motion to vote this as the most hilarious and random mp episode to date say I 🙋🏻♀️
Great info as always
I need Adam's shirt!!!
I never thought I would get to the point where eating food is becoming a chore. I'm really focusing on building strength throughout the winter and doing a slight bulk. I'm at like 3200 calories with 200 grams of protein (I'm 6'4 245ish ) and some days I struggle to get in my last meal, typically it's even a small meal because I eat a big breakfast and lunch. I should probably do a mini cut or something.
I would never go on hcg and clomid...after being on trt..I been on 275 for 2.5 years...after being at 400 for about 8 months
Hey guys I have a question as a personal trainer how do you train your wheel chair clients who are try to get mobility on there legs again?
I agree, it's so annoying when people think their animals are their children and that it's the same 🙄
Damn, this Fitness industry stuff is legendary 😂 🏆
Great work ❤
What happened to Dr. Cabral’s protocols you guys are following? I’m pretty sure Reeses Pieces has diary in it, Adam 😂
London good was so clean it made me embarrassed to eat what we eat here. Normal sized chicken, the eggs like you stated, proper portions, etc.
Why do people forget we are evolutionary creatures learning new ways to survive and adapt in a changing environment. Along with epigenetic changes.
Still watching but that concept of eating more and moving less does trip me up every time and I do cut off the morons Sal 😂 I'm working my way back to maintenance which will kinda be a build because I've never eaten so much before! I know for a fact I always liked how I looked my best in while maintenance. Thanks for the continuing education on fitness fellas.

♥️🧠💪🏽 Best fitness Podcast Ever!
The most confusing thing for me was and is the statement you have to be in a caloric deficit. What does that even mean for me? There are a million calorie calculators. What about focusing on protein. Is it based BMR or RMR then activity on top of that which can change day to day. What is reverse dieting? In last couple of months I've gained Muscle/bone denstiy (aka muscle density?), gained weight, lost body fat, body composition similar? So confused
I think if the yolk of an egg is light yellow, it's an indication that the chicken was under some type of stress. Fact check me though lol boom! 💪🏽
Love it
I met the love of my life on tinder
Shit bro I’ve been doing eat more move more since the beginning of October and I’ve put on 10 lbs and look leaner and fuller! 600+ grams of carbs a day haha
30:10 the trend to use formula instead of breastfeeding in the 60’s was not good for height/size and health too…
Arranged marriages also have alot of abuse in them. There is also the view of getting married first THEN dating and getting to know each other but many times it doesn't work.
