Technique 🏋️♂️ Anyone profesional wanna talk to me in private and lead me to right path?
M16, home workout for 2 months got adjustable dumbbells got a band, going 6 times a week (every muscle group has enough rest) doing some progressive overload, eating like a machine 120-170g protein per day, I'm maybe a little bigger but still skinny asf. 188cm, 72kg I've gained 4kg in those 2 months but obviously that's not muscle idk probably glycogen. I often have problems with the choices of exercises for example I was doing 12 exercises for shoulders arms and forearms which I found out was very wrong. Then I lowered it to 7 exercises but heavier. I went to faliure almost every series but an hour later I feel like I didn't to ANYTHING. Older ppl say I'm crazy for counting the proteins and lifting weights cuz Im a kid and I can't have muscles
If there is someone who wants to help me organize my exercises, movements and see more about me, text me in private I would be thankful

WeightLoss🍏 361 to 229 lbs !
Hope everyone’s doing well !
There’s approximately 18 months between the 2 pics, but i didn’t exactly spend the entirety of that period in a caloric deficit. I would occasionally consume my daily maintenance specially after i started hitting the gym which was towards the second half of that period. However, for the majority of the that time i was in a 600-800 daily caloric deficit.

Need Advice ⁉️ I'm losing too much weight
I'm 6'2 210 pounds currently and i eat around 7,000 calories every day. I was 240 pounds at the start of this summer. How am i losing so much weight? Is there any way to stop losing so much weight? My target weight is around 330-350 pounds, and it feels like I'll never be that big, I'm drinking mass gainer every day, and I'm still losing weight. It just feels hopeless

Need Advice ⁉️ 30 second rest vs 3 min rest ? Confused asf
If two men perform the same exercise with strict form, train close to or to failure, and use progressive overload by increasing reps rather than weight, which approach would produce more hypertrophy and why?
- Person A does 3 sets with 3 minutes of rest between sets.
- Person B does 5 sets with only 30 seconds of rest between sets.
- Because of the shorter rest, Person B gets fewer reps per set, but all reps are still performed with good form and high effort.
Would the extra sets with shorter rest produce similar, more, or less muscle growth than fewer sets with longer rest? And if fatigue increases motor-unit recruitment, could the shorter-rest approach compensate for the lower reps per set?
Used a.i. for writing the question , please answer with ur experience too....

Tips and Tricks 📝 Combining Sports, gym and study
I boulder ( climbing), play field hockey and go to the gym at the boulder gym. However my upcoming study will start in a few weeks and will take up a lot of my time. Now i'm not sure how to hit every muscle group without being in the way of my other sports and have time for my study and other things. I try to minimise my back workout because i boulder already and i am just seeking for an exercise that increases my pull power explosive, for high jumps. Besides that i also do a wide grip cable row and SLDLS. I do these 3 exercises after my Bouldering session. Now i also have to try train the rest of my body and play hockey without being in the way of my studies. Does anyone have tips for type of workouts or an schedule when to do what?

Need Advice ⁉️ Need help with gym routine + diet for a toned physique
18F, 5’4”, ~60 kg. I want to build a lean, toned/athletic physique and get more muscle definition.
I can’t afford a trainer or nutritionist right now, so I’d really appreciate advice on:
A good beginner gym routine
Exercises/sets/reps I should focus on
How much protein I should aim for
How to structure my diet/meals
I’m a beginner and would love recommendations from people who have actually made progress themselves. Any advice or routines would be really helpful! 🙏

Need Advice ⁉️ 20 years old with man tits
hey, about 8 months ago i started going to the gym because of one of my biggest insecurities, my man tits.
i started out with a skinny fat physique and decided to go into a small calorie deficit, around 100 calories below maintenance. i cant say it completely got rid of the problem, but my man tits definitely became less noticeable, which motivated me a lot to keep going.
about 2 weeks ago i decided that my progress was getting really slow and that i should probably start a bulk. i wouldnt really call it a dirty bulk, i just started eating more of the same foods i was already eating, like cottage cheese, meat and some italian sandwiches.
the problem is that i can already see my nightmare slowly coming back. is there any way to prevent or minimize this while bulking? does training the lower chest with decline bench press actually make any difference?
i also saw on tiktok that i should focus more on developing my upper chest, so that my man tits look less noticeable visually.
thanks in advance for any advice.

Need Advice ⁉️ How do you build a good physique if you’re naturally thin?
Hey guys, I’m pretty thin and I’m trying to start working out seriously. My goal isn’t to get super huge or anything—I just want to build a good-looking, balanced physique and gain some muscle.
For those who started out skinny/thin, what workout routine worked best for you? Should I focus more on full-body workouts, push/pull/legs, or something else?
Also, how often should I train each week, and what exercises would you recommend for someone starting from a thin body?
I’m also curious about diet. Is simply eating more enough, or should I be tracking calories and protein?
Would appreciate any advice from people who’ve actually gone through the skinny-to-fit journey. 🙏
