Post diet surgery? Like the skin removal stuff? Lost 20kg and gained a good amount of muscle, but still got too much skin. Any tips besides the expensive surgery?

Then first, your body slows metabolism down, which is bad
then it creates large insulin spikes after meals, making your body create and use more glycogen and less fat, which is even worse

fitness is about fine tuning dude, the smallest difference can make or break ALL results. spread your food across 4-5 meals for better usage of fat

do you have to follow a really strict diet/excercise routine? I'm thinking on working out but on a more lax kind of way, I'm not fat tho, I just want to get fiber on my body

It's not just that dude
There's literally a DIFFERENCE between 100 calories that come from white bread and 100 calories than come from a dark rye bread

The former raises blood sugar fast, raises insulin and lower glucagon, and high insulin = low glucagon = less use of fat for energy. That's why you're only supposed to eat complex carbs while dieting and ONLY eat simple carbs when you actually need new glucogen, like after lifting weights

>>649294739
20kg isn't that much, I needed surgery because I lost about 50
If you've lost that, no sweat - you'll just need a slightly lower body fat % for aesthetics than the average lifter. Once you hit 7-8% fat, a quick drying period, like 5-7 days, with low sodium and carbs, will make your skin temporarily tighten to really squeeze itself on your muscles. That's what bodybuilders and fitness models do right before competitions and shootings to make themselves look so ripped. Ask your nutritionist to see exactly how it's done

well, here's a hint.
remember that tip, no pain, no gain?
it's absolute self destructive horseshit that impeded my results for years
I go to the gym 6 days a week, but for maybe 35 minutes in total each time and most of those are resting minutes between sets
you're only supposed to do 12 of a large muscle (chest, back and legs) A WEEK, and 8-9 for smaller muscles (biceps, triceps, calves, etc) and not a single set more, eat, and go home
I also never do cardio while bulking, and while cutting I do 5 hours of EXTREMELY light cardio a week, like heart rate of 100-110

it's insanely easy and devoid of pain or any serious effort, maybe except on leg day since that uses lots of muscles at once

>>649295358
then it's likely holding you back and you should change it

Anyways pic related, it's me after the surgery, that's why I have such big red nipples since that's where my bitch tits were cut off

use your hunger dude
heavy lifting + LOTS of complex carbs and lean meats will build a lot of muscle along with fat
deal with the fat later, first try going back to heavy lifting until you get your motivation back

I actually lost most weight by a strict diet but that was a mistake that left me with excessive skin

nowdays I get leaner with a proper diet of complex carbs and lots of LIGHT cardio, since heavy duty running, etc, makes your body switch to using glyocgen instead of fat, and the result are good

>>649296413
Exactly
The trick is that your muscles don't just tell you "dude if you do any more you'll lose gains"
Remember those figures
12 sets for a big muscle ONCE A WEEK
8 for a small muscle ONCE A WEEK

work hard during those sets, like 6-12 reps, but not a single set more until the week's over

Doesn't matter. What he's saying is broscience. Read any study on Ramadan done ever. I mean actual studies, not links to broscience linking to more broscience.

Also what he says with insulin spikes after fasted is the exact opposite (also something you can read up on with any study of fasting + strength training). Intermittent fasting actually improves insulin sensitivity.

>you're only supposed to do 12 of a large muscle (chest, back and legs) A WEEK, and 8-9 for smaller muscles (biceps, triceps, calves, etc) and not a single set more, eat, and go home
Yes, because any professional or even amateur athlete will stop at 12 sets a week. I guess they're all doing it wrong and you're the expert.

>>649296991
>12 sets for a big muscle ONCE A WEEK
>8 for a small muscle ONCE A WEEK
>work hard during those sets, like 6-12 reps, but not a single set more until the week's over
This just reinforces the broscience factor. How do your muscles tell if you do 14 sets of 6 or 12 sets of 10?

They can't, and by your rule, you magically exceed your ability to recover with the former while magically not with the latter. And you don't even mention percentage of max effort. I assure you doing 15 sets of 15 bench at 135 for someone who lifts regularly may be tiring, but isn't doing to do shit except maybe some cardio.

I've been lifting for 9 years and only started seeing serious gains 2 years ago, after I actually got some professional advice to drop from twenty RM8-10 sets of chest to twelve at most, from a local champion bodybuilder called Erel Oren, and it worked

scale the thread
basically you need to eat a meal every 3 hours, if your BMR is around 1700 then you should eat like 250 calories worth of carbs and 200 worth or protein per meal, though those figures will obviously vary depending on your real stats

just look for a gym that has inbody scales to measure your exact amount of muscle mass and fat and tell you exactly what and how much to eat

240 pound 5'11 20yr old male, heaviest was 260. Gained 50 pounds in 2013, have lost some since then. I plan on losing 20-30 pounds by the end of the year. I'm super worried about excess skin and surgery. I really don't want it to cost $12,000.

Well, sadly it's impossible to really tell how your skin will arrange itself while your fat % is high. You need to drop it to around 10% at most to see your aesthetics and then decide whether you need surgery
I needed it but I was also maybe 40 lbs fatter than you are. If you diet SLOWLY and do light cardio your skin should also tighten better than mine

Yeah, I know about the cardio. I also heard keeping yourself well hydrated helps too. I really do have a lot of concerns about excess skin, how much did your surgery cost? I know it varies from person to person. I plan on moving across the country (USA) early next year, and i'd like to be at around 200 or lower in 2-4 months time. For me that would be losing around 40-50 pounds. Should I worry about excess skin? What would you recommend?

well I live in Israel, so it has a long waiting line for a surgeon (over a year) but it was part of local healthcare and thus free
But no, 40-50 lbs are pushing close to the border of excess skin but not quite enough to really pass it
you shouldn't worry unless you have really dangling tits
