This is pansophist's alternate account. You can see the hidden post above, the spambot has banned me for 24 hours again. I don't know why.

ibkayee:
I've started trying to do some weight training (in the past if I ever did exercise I'd only do cardio) but it's so painful.

How are you people doing 100 lifts at a time, I can barely manage 30 sometimes (5kg dumbbells only smh) lol. I guess it's gradual thing and you've got to start somewhere, consistency is my issue but I'm trying to do better

What goal do you intend to achieve with weight training?

Ahijo1990:
Thank you for this, Bro.

I'm a Mesomorph and just started gyming (but I've been playing football for over 20 years) about 6 weeks ago with gains showing already.

Please I need tips lose (belly) fat and gain more muscles.

I'm 33, 5 ft 11 inches and weigh about 106KG.

There is no such thing as spot reduction. You lose fat generally, and the belly fat will go down on its own. So the only liquid you drink should be water (no coke, beer, etc), and eating drastically reduce sugar/glucose.

Eggs, meat, fish, carrot, avocado, basically anything that comes from animals only. If you can stick to it, then in a month, you will lose everything. Of course I am operating under the assumption that you are not big like yokozuna

To make it easy to grasp, just think of what a cat (lion, tiger, cheetah, etc) will eat, then eat like that. Anything that grows from the ground, or processed will usually make one faat.

Entrepreneurrr:
I am in my late 20s and i want to gain muscle.


My body type is ectomorph


I mostly eat car.bs.

I am trying exercise using home workout app like 3 times in a week, though i am not consistent

Na your food be the problem. Stop eating car/bs. or reduce it to 20% for months. It is hard, and that is why most people cannot lose weight.

Henri244:
So I am 23 years old, I just started since early this year doing 15 pushups every morning. I eat beans a lot, Rice, Spaghetti, Different soups with meat or fish. After everything I eat I still look slim.
My younger brother is all looking big and fat and also muscular.
What do I do or eat to gain weight & muscles pls?
Modified: I'm 5.9ft tall

The answer to all fat people's problems is food. You didn't just become fat by growing into an adult. You become fat by the food you eat, and knowing which food not to eat (or at least to reduce) will give the result that you seek.

So instead of eating a plate of rice with two meat, it should be a plate of meat with small rice.

You have to be rich to eat like this na.

As glistinin said, 15 pushups are nothing. You are only convincing yourself that you are doing something, but it has no effect. Unless you are doing 15 as a starter, then progressing to at least 100 everyday.

Also, a pushup is a form of calisth.enics , and calis.thenics that has a ceiling by default. Your muscle can't grow if the only challenge it has is your body weight. You need the gym, and an increase in weight, to force it to grow bigger and stronger.

Now you understand why lots of fat people are poor lol

But one can be smart about it. Eggs are cheaper, or kpomo, and the cheapest animals available (chicken?). The fact is that you need protein to replace rice, swallow etc with protein, There is just no other way out.

Na you I quote wey dem ban me so. I was responding to you and the spambot banned me again until tomorrow lol. And na you make them ban me for two days before. Wetin na?

Eggs aren't cheap in Nigeria again. One egg is 150 where I live. Those days where you could get egg for 20 naira. You could get like ten at once lol .

Chai, na wa o. In that case, being fit is for the rich then. Time to japa lol.

[b]So guys, since December, I made a truce with myself that I will lose 10k. So far, I have lost 7kg in six weeks, and this is what my diet looks like.

Eggs, meat, fish, zero carb yogurts, water (no sugary drink/beer/wine, etc, just water), vegetables, hotdog, avocado, cucumber, coconuts, groundnuts, chicken, and skipping rope once in a while. That's all.

This diet was hard, because it was bland, monotonous, and functional, not the desired, but I stuck to it because the result is more important for me than discomfort.

The typical foods for Nigerians are swallow, rice, beans, bread, sodas, beer, pap, tea and sugar, yam, shawarma, pizza, etc. `Avoid them all. These foods are what is making you fat. You eat them too much, in the wrong proportion.

If you can eat a combination of the above for a month, I guarantee you that you will lose all those fats. You do not need a gym at all. But it feels good to look at yourself in the mirror naked, and like what you see, and I feel healthy and agile. [/b]

Is pork meat also good protein too

Thank you bro.

I no dey near coke and other fizzy drinks. Na only beer (about 2 bottles per week) I dey take with plenty water but I might have to stop the beer now.

I eat a lot of fruits too. I'm seeing carbohydrates consumption as a major stumbling block here so I'm going the route of portion reduction. Cutting all my regular carb intakes by half from now.

Lol. I'm not obese. Here's my pic taken on 26th Dec 2022.

Big man, see as you carry muscle full everywhere, are you normal? Lol. Your physique is good, it gives that undertone of potential violence, a warning for village people not to mess with you.

But accentuate your looks by scraping off the fats that blur your packs and definition. Try fine abeg, you get the physique already, so. Na to sexy remain, it should be one of your new year resolution. And to achieve that, start eating like a lion.

For the past six weeks, my meal revolves around animals and vegetables. So fish, meat, eggs, cucumber, avocado, coconut, hotdog, broccoli, groundnut, chicken, and water.

I was just combining it anyhow to not make it boring, and like play, 7kg disappear comot from my system. Come give me a youthful, masculine looks. So start am. But warning, it's hard o.

Restricting carbs will make you feel weak, and you won't be in your best mood, but after like a weak or so, it will be over and your body will transform to an efficient burning machine.

The middle one.

My problem is weight. I gave weight so fast and too much despite registering and going to gym, swimming and still jogging at home.
My present weight is 105kg and I don’t like it.
I want to drop down to Atleast 90kg

Food my guy, food. Stop eating like a Nigerian. Start eating like a lion. Go on a strict bloody diet. So eat anything that has blood in it.

So beef, fish, chicken, pork, egg, goat, pepper soup etc. If you can do it, you'll easily loose everything three months Max. You don't need gym to loose weight.

Going to gym is convincing yourself that you're doing something, but the effect is not the result you're trying to achieve.

Gym na to build muscle, not loose weight. If you go to gym without dieting, then you'll gain muscle but it will be buried deep in fats. Giving you that Don Jazzy look.

Eat until satiety. Don't starve yourself. But only drink water, nothing else. Protein typically have less calories than carb, and has a higher satiety index.

Start to drink beer, eat chocolate, and load yourself with fries and pizza. Na you go run from fat. Also if you're below 25,then calm down, the fat go come as you de grow.

Wrong, was born in wealth and affluence, so no reason that way, it’s just a natural thing. Most of us no dy fat, it’s a natural thing. Enjoyment na our birth right ooo. Those ones you talked about are just a portion of my people who ain’t privileged but contented with what life brings.

Haaa. I no get prescription for your case bros. You no need ask Mr Ibu. Ask am wetin he de chop. Or Don Jazzy. As for me, I gain or loose weight easily. So na my specialty be that.
