Glad it working✨

No fr why did I believe I need to bulk so much before😭

2024/11/18 Edited to

... Read moreWhen aiming to bulk up, many individuals often worry about losing muscle mass. It's essential to understand that the process of bulking doesn't merely mean eating more; it's about ensuring quality nutrition and effective training. One common misconception is that excess calorie intake guarantees muscle gain. However, improper management of macronutrients can lead to unwanted fat gain and muscle loss. It is vital to balance your carbohydrate, protein, and fat intake correctly to support muscle preservation during this phase. Incorporating strength training routines that progressively overload your muscles will also help in retaining muscle while bulking. Adequate hydration and rest play a significant role in muscle recovery, so ensure you prioritize these aspects as well. Reflecting on your journey, remember that trusting the process, including your cuts and overall workout routine, is crucial in building a sustainable fitness lifestyle. Focusing on muscle retention strategies during bulking will contribute to long-term success in your fitness goals.

Glad it’s working
People kept saying, “Just drink Ensure Plus!” So I did—hundreds of dollars spent, bottle after bottle. I thought maybe I wasn’t eating enough... but y’all, I was. One of my teachers literally nicknamed me “Snack Attack” because I stayed snacking all day! 😂🍫 Still—nothing changed. Until I found one

Do you REALLY hate working? Or is THIS the reason?
Sometimes, it’s not that you hate working, it’s that you might not like your job, have external factors that prevent you from enjoying your work, or even that you’re just not where you want to be in your career. For me, ever since graduating college I’ve struggled with the idea of working, not b
