we know.
only way to make it faster is to straight up fast and not eat anything for 2-3 days at a time. cutting cals alone is not enough for fast results, you want to complete shut down insuline spikes too, which only happens by not putting food in your mouth at all
>we know.
No you don't cause not everyone has the genetics for bulking?
I can eat but gain frick all and more or less go back to square 1 because lean physique or "ectomorph" or whatever nu-sciencey bullshit you want to call it
Yes genetics determine how much muscle you can put on your frame and certain attributes of your muscles (i.e. bicep inserts, wide back, where fat is stored), but if you actually work out and eat properly you can bulk.
Without steroids it will take a long time and the results will be hard to notice at first, but genetics have nothing to do with it. It's 100% down to your diet and your consistency.
Here are some basic bulking tips >Best to start a bulk from a lean state, 10-15% bodyfat >Eat in a caloric surplus. Figure out your body's base metabolic rate, how many calories you burn in a typical day, and eat 5-10% more than that total. >Progressive overload. Train your muscles to fatigue. Make sure you feel a pump when you leave the gym. >Consistency is the most important aspect. Do worry about doing things in the most "optimal" way as long as you have a routine you can easily stick to. Keep cheat days few and far between. >Sleep more. This is what no one will tell you when getting started. Make sleep a priority. If cutting out some gaming/TV time means getting a full 8 hours, do it.

you're moronic. literally all you people. you waste way too much time thinking about this shit. it's just calories in, calories out. if you're fat eat less, eat a salad, drink coffee. if you're skinny eat all the time every time, don't eat salads. it's really fricking simple. making it complicated sets people up for failure.
nothing complicated about what he said though.
reducing calories yields results, fasting while reducing calories yields faster results, that's all there is to it.

I don't know how to feel. It's like God hit the random button when making me
anon, working out but pretending you don't is the oldest trick in the book. it's meant to trick females into thinking you're genetically muscular and want to frick you.
nice exaggeration. i bet they work manual labor jobs and even if they dont they definitely do some sort of physical activity they just don't tell you because that's none of your business. i don't tell people i lift unless they ask but it's already ovbious i lift so i never get asked that to begin with.

you have to diet for like 2 years straight bud. you can try to make it faster by min maxing everything though and most people are lazy to correctly track it. so yeah 2 years of dieting the lazy way (not counting correctly). you would have to drop to around 12% bf if your gut is the actual last place you will lose fat there but i doubt it. 12% is bottom line of healthy bf before it starts to be unhealthy the lower you go.
smoking tobacco is peak moron. if you smoke you've already lost.
if you smoke weed, at least you have a reason. you want to get high. but cigarettes are the most israeli thing ever.
Probably a bit atleast. Nicotine buzz could be used as a PWO but it's also a vasoconstrictor so you'll get less of a pump/muscle activation and won't be able to lift as heavy/long.
No. Natural lifters can only gain 10lbs of lean muscle mass on average. 20lbs if you really gifted and dedicated. It takes 2-5 years to reach "natty limit".
Yeah. He's one of those anglo twink types that you could mistake for a girl in a wig, and doesn't grow any chest hair. Justin bieber tier homosexualry.
Sometimes I still think about the scene in Stranger Things season 3 when Nancy has that conversation with her mom about the mom being a hero for not cheating on her husband with a teenage boy.
>is X natty
look at the trapezius any time you feel like asking this. if they're roiding it's going to look overdeveloped compared to the rest of their body.
actor probably wasn't since roids are cheap as frick and easily acessible, especially for an actor.
Either way body like this is super easy to get, just lift for 8-10 months and then cut hard
>tfw i have friends that look like this without doing anything
>tfw I have to work out 4 times a week to get a bit close
Trust me, all the fit people you see on instagram are 80% genetics 20% work

Holy shit please get a clue.

stop making excuses for why you are fat.
Put down the fork and the weight will go.
>narrow fricking shoulders
how to know if you narrow shoulders?
Can't out-train a bad diet
>>over 6ft tall
>>born with a naturally big ass and thighs
fricking shoulders
You should get tested for Kleinfelters.
Im sure its mostly your diet thats the problem
those frickers are roided lying bastards and are the reason frickton of teenagers are on steroids.

literally after 1 month of lifting
>tfw look better than him but look like a dyel weakling with a shirt on
Yes. Most Hollywood actors and natty and extremely hard working people.
He is a manlet, so yes.
Overdeveloped obliques and core
Train lats and back idiot you look like a fridge
Id say so, that looks like a "i play sports in school/college" body
>lifts while smoking
won't cigarettes kill your gains?
smoking tobacco is peak moron. if you smoke you've already lost.
if you smoke weed, at least you have a reason. you want to get high. but cigarettes are the most israeli thing ever.
nah frick stoners, truly scum of the earth
Probably a bit atleast. Nicotine buzz could be used as a PWO but it's also a vasoconstrictor so you'll get less of a pump/muscle activation and won't be able to lift as heavy/long.

Why does everyone neglect their chest these days? Do some push ups guy.
This was him before Stranger Things for his Power Rangers roll.
You still thinking he's natty?
unless he achieved this body in less than a 9 month it's totally achievable natty
>is Hollywood actor natty
what do you think?
this gay deserve to get shot in the head for making that stupid face. you too Black person fat op
>trigged by masculinity
cringe
nothing is masculine about that face. gtfo teenage rat you aint 18
Yeah. He's one of those anglo twink types that you could mistake for a girl in a wig, and doesn't grow any chest hair. Justin bieber tier homosexualry.
>masculinity is chest hair
fricking embarrassing, but not surprising. closeted homosexuals do it all the time.
Sometimes I still think about the scene in Stranger Things season 3 when Nancy has that conversation with her mom about the mom being a hero for not cheating on her husband with a teenage boy.
>is X natty

He looks fine but not natty
It's the 80s, no one was natty
people took coke and test more than they drank water
Why do you people consume that shit? I can understand 13 year old girls, but guys who visit Cinemaphile. Are you morons or gay?
