[Looksmax] extremely simple bulking advice

[thesupremegentleman]

i seen some noob ass threads about muscle gain so i have to make some things clear
its all about calories fuck everything else just follow these rules in order of importance

1. total calorie intake and sleep quality are at the top because neglect means all other efforts are left utterly futile. theres no reason to train if u dont already sleep or eat enough its just catabolic as fuck. its a waste of time and fully retarded. intake should be 100-300 calories over ur maintenance. anything more is dirtybulking aka dooming urself to acne and fat cell hyperplasia
2. ur daily protein needs to be at leeeast 1.9x or more than ur kg bodyweight in grams. so if ur 70 kilos aim to eat 140 grams of protein at least. optimally u need more during recovery if u train all week
3. when those needs are met u can begin to think about functional eating. eat a fuckton of carbs to load ur muscles with glycogen, then eat a fuckton of minerals especially salt to load up with water. a gram of glyco binds to around 4 grams of water so ur gonna see ur weight spike immediately after beginning strength training just from this. if u eat something like pasta then ur ready to train in like 30 minutes. if u eat rye bread its more like 1 - 2 hours until ur gonna be peak strength. u should aim to be hydrated, glyco loaded and running on good energy in order to feel strong and have fun in the gym and get good pumps

pumps is the key to wanting to get back in the gym. its a carrot on a stick tbh or u can keep ur cigarettes in ur gym locker its gonna keep u coming back
good luck niggas

and btw, whey isolate vs grass fed beef with raw honney and avocados makes no difference no matter what your mom tells you. its all about the raw data. how much in VS how much u burn. What u need in order to feel good outside of the gym is an entirely different topic
you can live off protein shakes and fruits and grow stronger than someone who has a private chef but doesnt track their shit

Calculating that 100-300 cal surplus is such a chore, you gotta take all those steps to calculate the smallest stuff just for it to legally be allowed to show fake calorie amount, annoying stuff tbh.

i totally get this tbh, but this is like a rite of passage for anyone serious enough to actually make a change. And trust me bro its really not that hard because once u get used to it u can just look at a meal and know roughly how much it is. Like after a week ur gonna have searched up the macros in pretty much all the common things in ur life that goes into other meals. If u know the macros of an egg, a slice of bread, a quart of yogurt, 100g beef or chicken etc .. then ur gonna know what nearly everything is by weight or just looking at it.

similarily. when you strive to hit your maintenance for enough days in a row, you will be able to feel when youve gone past it, in combination with this intuitive knowledge of food macros and general day to day satiety estimate

bro u dont need 140g protein lmfao. and who gives fuck about glycogen

[eldajaal1488]

this is most gymcel thing i have seen today. take it easy, train and eat whatever(not junk food)
no stress
u dont need to labrat urself into cpt murica jfl

[thesupremegentleman]

take it easy, train and eat whatever

This is already taking it way too easy jfl read the title. And ts isnt a theory either.. If u dont eat above your maintenance then you are losing weight. There is no magic involved LOL....  its either or. Ur building muscles or you're losing muscle. If you wanna eat suboptimal protein and go to the gym deflated as fuck just to try training in a catabolic state then good luck. should have just asked for advice instead, if these simple rules scared you enough to denounce it completely

[Altruist]

Whats complicated if this is simple

[Mr Looks]

Got it, test E it is

[thesupremegentleman]

Whats complicated if this is simple

this is the absolute simplest baseline for weightlifting. there is way more complicated stuff u can get into like micros which i didnt even mention . there is also cutting/bulking protocols , how to progressively overload, recovery advice and lots of supplements and preworkout ingredients you can get into

ITT i laid out 3 basic rules anyone can use to successfully "maingain", which is the easiest beginner method. Basically maingaining = burning fat(marginally) while also buiding muscle. What makes these rules simple is the fact you can actually disregard everything else as long as these 3 rules are fulfilled. The point is to make it easier to digest and start training without wasting months - years with zero progress cause you didnt know wtf u were doing

bro it geniuely doesnt matter if u are losing weight or gaining. as long as u gymcel u will look good. one day u will eat 200 over, 300 under next. 100 over third. if you dont do something dramatic u will be more than fine. gymceling like ur life depends on it geniuely does fuckall for effort u end up putting. u barely need 100g protein jfl(as long as its from animal protein)
and i have tried gymcelmaxxing as teen like this, now i just take it easy and look same. just eat banana and go to gym. then eat meat and maybe kefir later
and ur veggies/nuts etc for vitamins. or take supps. this matters more than muhh protein lmfao

u come into my thread titled bulking advice, and try to say that it doesnt matter if you are losing weight or gaining jfl.

Your problem is perspective tbh. You think following these simple guidelines is "gymcelling like ur life depends on it" LOL i do this shit automatically these days tbh. 100g protein is decent enough if you weigh around 70kg, but you are definetly leaving gains on the table if you train 4x or more a week. Of course u can totally take it easy if thats your speed just dont try and give advice when you yourself already gave up long ago
