After weeks of feeling stuck, my weight is finally going up. I’ve been staying more consistent with food, training, and rest.
Small progress is still progress. My goal now is to keep building and see how far I can take this transformation.
Cable kickbacks just tone. Real growth = compound lifts. I eat like I mean it eggs, salmon. If you’re not in a slight surplus, glutes won’t pop
Yeah, impressive on paper but I lift for muscle and shape not just scale no. loosing too much weight too fast could kill strength gains I’d be careful trying to apply it directly
After 35, I had to train smarter not harder ,, glute activation first (monster walks and bridges) THEN lift heavy helped me connect mind-to-muscle big time
Eat more carbs. I was under-eating for years wondering why my glutes stayed flat. Fuel the growth not just train for it 💯
Peptides like CJC-1295 or TB-500 helped me recover faster from heavy leg days
Some people use cheat meals strategically like carb refuel before leg day
Had an overuse wrist issue from too many push-ups. Switched to bands & dumbbells took 2 weeks off heavy pressing and now I warm up more recovery > ego lifts
Pre-workout with caffeine + beta-alanine gets me going nothing beats that tingling pump before leg day
😅 I usually plan one per week. Keeps cravings in check and doesn’t mess with progress if you stick to your macros the rest of the time
