I AM DOW 70 SAME

Congratulations! Question, I just started anabolic. 2 days in. A huge fan of these guys. I am not new at all to the weights and working out. 58 yr old woman and I have some weight to loose. Macros? How can I or where can I find out how many macros to eat ? Do these guys have a “ guide” or etc? I need to loose 50lbs. Thanks for any advice.

@@gladius731971 I use the MyFitnessPal App to track all my calories. I eat in a calorie deficit for my current height and weight. I found my macros breakdown online. I now weight 140 so I eat 135 grams of protein everyday, 135 grams of carbs, and 47 grams of fat. It totals to 1503 calories everyday for my deficit. I want to lose another 10 if I can but honestly I am body recomping so much that the scale still says 140 but my smaller clothes are getting baggie on me. I am 45 and in the best shape of my life

@@jaimegutierrez5520 congratulations🥳

Amazing job!!

Yess! I started doing that a few weeks back after Adam said it on the podcast and have increased weight in all my lifts... it's awesome! I now love tracking my progressive overload

Me too! It’s like the daily news but for health!

damn lol like 173, 6'2, 18 year old man and train fairly intense througout the week, and thats how much i eat. I should prolly up my cals lol

@@zanerrr To be fair, I’m eating that for my powerlifting performance, it’s not my maintenance, it’s a slight surplus. Small Cutting cals are 2200, 2150, a full 500 calorie cut would be a little under 2k. For my figure show though, I did lose most of my 25lb eating around 1963 🤷🏻‍♀️ I came from being a skinny female that wanted curves, so I had never dieted once before the show, just maintained and bulked. I think it’s really valuable to do what I call w my clients “metabolic building” phases. Basically, a time where you focus on slowly over time gradually increasing your calories. Technically it’s a reverse diet, but you don’t have to have come from an extreme diet or cutting phase to do it, you could just be more primed for a reverse if your are coming from a cut. I did it over the course of my decade lifting though without many dieting phases, just gradually built muscle and therefore my maintenance calories kept increasing. I am a CPT and online coach and I have a bodybuilder client that cut at 2000s-high 1800s for a show, and is now 198-200lb fairly lean bulking at 3500, and now currently maintaining his weight at 3200 before we go into another mass gaining phase. My goal is to get him eating 4k. He’s also increase his deadlift from 335 w straps, to 395 (now probs 400) so by 60lb since April when he started working w me, w no lifting straps. His strength and muscular density has skyrocketed while still staying fairly lean. After he hits as close to 4k as we can, we will see about a cut. We did about 9-12 weeks of continually upping his cals based on his scale weight and progress photos, gaining about 1lb a week. We will do a small 6-8 week cut to minimize fat gain, and go again. This time next year, I hope to get him shredded for a possible show. I would ideally like him to get only as low as 2200 if necessary and even more ideally, reverse diet him (UP his calories) going INTO the show, so he looks lean but very muscularly FULL and Big.

@@zanerrr so yes, I would look into reversing, that truly is where a coach like myself or the coach I work w for my own nutrition, can be invaluable 🙏🏼 hope this helped!

@@zanerrr also, 4000 Macy, I’m overwhelming and daunting. I’m not telling you to do this, this is what we’re doing for him, as a natural bodybuilder, because I want to give him the best chance of preserving muscle, and staying hormonally healthy when we do a cut. That way we don’t have to crash diet with very little calories. 4k is not what you’re aim should be haha. I’d say 2600-3k anywhere between there would be a good goal.

So how much do you think I should be eating? I eat around 2100-2600 a week and I guess I found that my maintainace lol I wish it was more cals but whatever.

That's great to hear man
