Dear mindpump, I would like to share an idea with you. In my opinion, these live questions are sometimes a little bit long-winded. Perhaps you could be more in the lead as a host and guide the caller to get to the point a little bit sooner. It would be even better if it would be clear for the caller that they have some kind of timetable or they could get some kind of a question format to use to get a little bit sooner to the main question. I personally feel like some of these questions are getting way too long and could use some active guidance. It could make the conversation more enjoyable to listen to. Just my 2 cents. Cheers!
I was in a similar situation. I weighed all my food and could barely get to 1,700 calories. Was forcing myself to eat dinner. Tried Trifecta meals which I thought would be accurate calories, about 350-420 calories a meal, could only eat two a day and no need for snacks. Now I just focus on getting my protein numbers and let the rest fall where they may and have noticed better recomp. Protein shakes help. Finished anabolics, going to start Performance on Monday. Wish me luck.
Is this accurate: if he is keto or low carb, then he’s eating more satiating food whereas if he increases his carb intake, he’ll probably be able to increase calorie intake
My question is, then, when does the scale go down? I know that varies from person to person, but you can’t be in a balance with the increased muscle weight versus weighing on the scale the same I mean, there Hass to be some sort of a gift.? For example, a 240 pound woman she’s working out she feels strong she’s losing inches. She is doing well, she probably gained 5 pounds of muscle and lost 5 pounds of fat and the scale is still the same 240 pounds so again where does the scale or when does the scale start to dip at what level?
I am a 40 year old female, 4'11'' wanting to lose fat and build muscles. and recently started counting macros.... 1280 calories a day, 4 meals throughout the day....it's been about 3 weeks or so now, I do both strength training and walking.... I recently started feeling like the calories i'm eating is not enough? I feel hungry so quickly after my meals as if I didn't eat much at all... even though I felt satiated at the end of the meal... what does that mean? am I burning more and faster? or do I need more calories?
I’m 28 yo, 180lbs 20% bf, 5,75 ft. For a long time I would eat 1600kcal and my body wouldn’t change. I would lose a lb or two but I would gain 10 easy if I get off track. Since March this year I started increasing my calories and doing the big 5 lifts. I can lift at least my bw for 5 reps in all of them. Still hitting PRS. Currently eating 2500 kcal gained only about 8lbs in the process, mostly muscle. It’s getting hard to increase my calories and I’m feeling really full. My goal is to get leaner and I’m certainly not getting any leaner. Is this a good place to go on a cut or should I get my calories higher?
I'm 6ft and 213 pounds, doing maps anabolic. I am eating 2400 calories and could eat more. My steps are about 25 to 29 thousand steps a day! I take the weekend off but I still get 15000 steps or more. I absolutely make sure I get 1g of protein per body weight. Is this the write way of doing things?
@@dustinwilley4770 You're definitely on the right track. Power/Strength training will help somewhat with size and increase your work capacity for hypertrophy. Cardio be it intense or otherwise, is going to allow you to keep your muscles more adaptive and receptive to stimulus, while using fat as the primary source of energy. You can prioritize one area of training. But you can't neglect any. The biggest thing to composition is diet. I'd say it's like 51% diet and 48% training. An irrelevant and extremely rare 1-2% for genetic variability.
There is no way a 230 pound guy who works out gains weight on 1500 calories per day. My first guess is that he is significantly underreporting how many calories he's consuming, and does not know how to track calories accurately.
I get he's not full (mental?), I don't get how he's gained all this weight. He shouldn't be gaining weight and if he is lift heavy and do a bulk at 1500 lol
I find just hitting my protein intake alone is about 1500 with a clean diet... once u add in ur carbs its easy 2000 without being stuff. He looks like what i would eat [200grams of protein] so hes off somewhere
I have the same problem i want to bulk up add few calories but the problem even i ate good amount of fiber i get constipated every time I slowly increase calories I wish you have video explaining what i need to do
Exactly, Im a female & I weigh 130 pounds and eat 1700 cals a day to maintain! how can he eat so little but still have weight on his body? science is weird bruh.
I have this problem ever since my childhood. I take dump once every two days. Eating more and working out regularly didn't help me. I got stronger and gained muscle, but I still get easily fat tissue, and I'm having trouble loosing weight. Any tips? Thanks
@@joebloggs6922 I agree. The point of my question is how to increase that basal metabolic rate? It really is unpleasant when you get easily fat, and don't have regular bowel movement.
This guy is lying or doesn't count calories correctly, 1500 calories and full but gained weight? He looks like a big guy to me. I'm 5'8 209 lbs. I eat 3000 calories a day still losing weight and still hungry.
My thoughts exactly. Using myself as a reference, my BMR at 5'8" 133 pounds is about 1600 calories (that is, if I were to sit for all 24 hours and do nothing). And this guy who's like 100 pounds more than me is telling me that his maintenance calories is lower than my BMR? My guess is he is actually eating 2500-3000 calories per day.
He says he's been keto and doing IF so his metabolism has probably slowed and he's become more insulin sensitive, basically he's become more efficient. Now all he needs to do is eat more often and add the carbs back in which sounds like what he's started doing and he'll have great workouts with the carbs and pack some muscle on while burning fat.
I get he's not full (mental?), I don't get how he's gained all this weight. He shouldn't be gaining weight and if he is lifting heavy and gaining, then do a bulk at 1500 lol

@@TheOlympia75 even then, if i put my 5'6 150 pound mother on 1500 calories she'd lose weight. this guy is not only lying to himself, but the mindpump guys and im kinda confused on why they bit into it. usually you guys are spot on, but you guys missed with this one!
most confusing conversation.. not even clear what that guy wants. host should repeat what the question is so it is clear to the guy and the listener, and focus on addressing it

1500 calories and full?
I don't think so :)
yeah he's convinced himself of that. I used to do the same.

you want to lose weight meaning fat. eat less calories. do cardio after your work out.
Gain fat easily? It’s as simple as calories in calories out. Don’t eat above your maintenance calories. Some people have it as lower than others
@@joebloggs6922 I agree. The point of my question is how to increase that basal metabolic rate? It really is unpleasant when you get easily fat, and don't have regular bowel movement.
I'm on the same boat and. Hitting every muscle group at least 2 times a week with some cardio is really helping me.
@@leonidas3127 increase your fiber intake to help your bowel movement

Why would he lie ? People under count or over count their calories all the time. He needs to build muscle a lot and it won’t matter.
All that means is your metabolism burns more than his.
What's your age bro?
@@lombardo141 because you cant build muscle on a deficiet ? Shieeet body builders eat like that when there 2 weeks out
I doubt this 200lb man is actually only eating 1500 calories. And claims he’s gained 12lbs of lean muscle
He says he's been keto and doing IF so his metabolism has probably slowed and he's become more insulin sensitive, basically he's become more efficient.
