Man, I've plateaued and it sucks. Didn't think it would happen so early. I'll just work out the rest of the month as normal, then take a week off and resume with a different routine.

Just change it up a bit. It happened to me a while ago. Personally I decided to change my routine a bit, I started using much higher weights, less repetitions(5 or 6) and managed to find some new exercises I never spent time on before. Also I concentrated a lot on becoming stronger, especially in squats, deadlifting and bench press. Personally it worked really well for me and I saw a lot of good gains.

But you just have to grind it out man, just be consistent until you break through it.

it doesnt matter what routine you do if you have high metabolism and you are not eating enough you will not see improvements

I love cottage cheese

 

[Quetzalcoatl]

I wish I could share that taste. Was hoping to add an extra option to breakfast so it's not eggs everyday

Whenever I try to do squats I hear something crack in my knees. Anything else I can do instead?

It's too bland (cottage cheese). You could add different things to your eggs like onions, peppers, cheese, etc. Or you could cook eggs differently. There's like a million ways to make eggs.

Improve posture. Cracking in knees is normal sometimes btw

 

[Quetzalcoatl]

Yeah mayne, I do all sorts of ish with my eggs. No worries, I haven't got fed up yet.

Hardest thing for me to do with this exercise is getting the form right.

 

[Quetzalcoatl]

Go as light as you have to to get the proper form.

 

[AFL_ITALIA]

Without any added weight.

 

[ALC]

how is it so hard to get the posture for squats right with no weight? do it in the mirror.

 

[Quetzalcoatl]

Without any added weight.

That's cool, do that and you'll be getting stronger.

I was thinking my knees might just be fucked up.

That's cool, do that and you'll be getting stronger.

Aside from holding random heavy things, I don't have anything else to use.

 

[Quetzalcoatl]

What do you mean? What's the most you can do while maintaining correct form?

 

[ALC]

lyou don't realy need weights to get the most out of squats as long as you're not trying to build muscle.

first thing is going ass to grass. put your butt down as much as possible and then go up. once you can do that, do it in slow-mo. that should give you a pretty legit leg workout. and increase your reps every time until your legs give out on you.

but work on your form. have someone watch you if you can. once you get it, you'll gain so much more from your workout. and you'll never do them wrong again.

I hope I dont get fat.

I sold this because it was too much calories. I want to keep lean. Ive been doing full body and I enjoy it but Ill burn more carbs this way and I do sort of miss that concentrated burn on specific areas.

 

[GordoDeCentral]

lol too many calories?? it's got 120 per serving

 

[Salvo]

Oh wait, I thought I linked what I sold. this is what I sold.
