@Dogbreath you can get to that look too btw broNo I didn't start anything. I actually just caught the Flu. I'm just stocking up on gear for 2025. Up until yesterday everything is the same. My diet doesn't change. I eat the same foods almost everyday. The same macros. I do the same workout schedule. I will switch up the exercises every couple of weeks to trick the muscle. Do dumbbell curls instead of barbell, rope extensions instead of pushdowns etc .. But basically everything is the same as I previously logged. I keep it stupid simple. I eat right, high protein, gear, workout hard 30 - 60 mins max in & out. I have a routine, schedule that I follow. I am seeing gains from week to week. If it' isn't broken then why fix or change it? Some people make lifting weights complicated. Like a job. I just don't do complicated. And I hate to work. I started lifting weights at 14 because I thought it was fun, and wanted to look like Arnold did. Back then he was in his his twenties. I had the poster below on the back of my bedroom door. I would look at it everyday after school, while I was lifting weights in my room. It's a hobby that I've had most of my life that I enjoy doing. I have a friend that doesn't do gear, protein powder or any supps. just eats a very clean high protein diet and lifts five days a week. He is ripped & looks sick. Takes a multi vitamin and fish oil. He's been lifting for 10 years. He keeps it really simple.
i would like to see you come back after the FLU and update us so we can start pushing it
i would say can you share the diet and macros after the flu
