HOW MUCH PROTEIN CAN YOUR BODY ACTUALLY USE?
The jury is still out on this, but there’s no advantage to overdoing it — 20-40g of protein per meal for muscle synthesis is enough, even for gymbros not on 💉.
Everything past that gets burned for energy or turned into urea. So that “50g protein shake” you’re so proud of? Half of it just becomes very expensive pee. 1/5
@RonStelter Just leisure walk is not cardio. You must elevate your heart rate to green zone. I do 15’ tempo walk on a treadmill after workouts. So yes, I use walking as cardio 👍
You are not cheaters. The problem with most of you is that you don’t put gear 💉 as reason No. 1 for the way you look. You babble on about food, consistency, form, … but without gear ⚙️, you could do all that 10 times better and you still wouldn’t look the way you do. Not by far.
Using 10kg dumbbells today? Still warm up like a lifter. First. lightweight, then slightly heavier, then working weight. Powerlifters do this at 90%+ of their max. Skipping it isn’t hardcore — it’s just choosing fewer reps for no reason.
Proper warmup is literally how you unlock more reps at the same weight, not just how you avoid getting hurt.
🔚
WARM UP with 50% of your working set?
Bro-science nonsense!
You don’t “warm up” — you build up. It’s not just injury prevention — it’s why you can pull more weight than the guy who walked straight to the weight cold.
Ego lifters dream. 1/5
Top notch dead-lifters spend 45-60 minutes warming up before a single max pull — dozens of sets, tiny jumps, full recovery between each one. You don’t need an hour. But if they don’t skip it at 400kg+, you don’t get to skip it at your working weight. 4/5
A ti res misliš, da je to slučajno? Kar maenkrat se je 50.000 ljudi odločilo, da bo šlo čez Maroko, ne da bi jih kdo kaj vprašal in to ravno v državo, ki obtožuje I§rael za geno¢id in ji je ta isti grozil, da bo to plačala? Slučajev pač ni. Namesto ‘cinik’ raje ‘naivnež’ v profilko.
