I had this in my lats when I first started doing chin ups. Insane soreness that lasted like 5 days. I think it was because I never used the muscles in daily life but that's just a gut feeling. May be something similar since traps don't get used very much unless you specifically train them.

Hey /fit/
Im really not sure what to do. I've been cutting on 1500 kcals since the start of june and i just feel it hasn't had any results. My TDEE is 2100 according to calculators (77kg 176 cm manlet). I workout 5 days a week (PHAT) and i do HIIT 3 days and normal cardio for about 20 minutes the other days. Sometimes on my days off i go on long walks or go to the gym and do more cardio. I've been eating 1500 kcals (hitting 1.8x BW in brotein aswell) or less basically every day since the start of june and i feel like it hasn't had any effect. I've got noob/comeback gains going for me so im way bigger and stronger but i REALLY hate being fat/chubbyish. I've lost 1.4 kg's (measured both morning/evening) since i started doing this and my abscence of abs remind me of what a failure i am every day. I don't even look in the mirror anymore because im so ashamed.
So last week i said "fuck it" and started cutting on 1000 and it's really fucking shitty bros. I mean i don't feel well at all - im hungry, tired, i don't sleep well, and i perform worse at work. The ONLY things i eat are oats for breakfast, chicken and vegs for lunch, and a chicken chili for dinner, with quark (basically cottage cheese but tastes good) post-workout/in the evening. Im still hitting my protein goal but i just feel like this is unsustainable. My lifts haven't suffered yet - in fact, im stronger than i was before. But the problem is i can't bring myself to bear to eat more food because i hate my body so much. Hate, hate, hate. My friends all tell me how big i've gotten and while it sure is nice, every time i accidentally catch a glimpse of my stomach and don't see abs i feel like shit.
DAE know this feel? Feel free to share, or just berate me for my lack of willpower

power through, increase your workouts and never relent on your calories limits
push and push, never give in, the more it fights you, the more you vicious you become.
t. been there done that.

I'm there with you dude, my TDEE is about 2200 and I've been cutting at about 1800 for maybe a month. I've lost a couple lbs and my lifts are going up, but it's slow going. Just gotta keep at it. A 1.1k deficit is probably too much to sustain, I'd scale it back to maybe 500 a day and just keep fucking going to the gym. The food cravings get easier with time, and the dread/ennui of going to the gym deadens over time too. Just gotta keep at it.

1000 a day sounds dumb. You're probably making progress, what's your weight change?

Wake up, gym, eat, work, sleep. Skip work 3x a week.
Why is lifting more popular and accepted among blue collar workers? Why do my white collar coworkers look at me with disdain when I say I would rather lift than go out to the bars.

Because you have trouble understanding that socializing needs timenout of your day as much as lifting. You are both alienating your coworkers and not making social gains by not rescheduling your work out in order to hanging out with them.
>>
>>42369192
Lifting is completely accepted by white collar workers. You're just perceived as an antisocial autist by your coworkers because you don't want to take a day off to socialize. To them it sounds like you're just making excuses because you don't want to hang out with them. Either accept it and be the social outcast at work or take a day off or reschedule once in a while to make social gains.

because your social group bonds around alcohol intake, if you don't participate then you are not part of it, doesn't have anything to do with blue/white collar.

Had excellent vegan steak today. Cow only eats gras –> cow vegan –> steak vegan. GOAT steak, lot's of protons and good stuff for brain.

So, apparently I made a mistake in pursuing weight loss before I attempt to quit smoking.
Currently, I've lost about 22 pounds in about 2 months, and I still have a good 50 pounds to go (I'm ~225 currently, 6'0'' tall). In regards to some ideas I've come up with, here are a few;
>Attempt to quit smoking and diet in conjuction
>Attempt to quit smoking but give in to the temptations that come with cessation, such as eating, being lazy etc.
>Continue my diet/exercise but turn a blind on my smoking addiction, quitting later down the line
I'm just wondering what decision would be statistically simpler to achieve and beneficial. I'm not looking for excuses to ditch my diet, but at the end of the day if what I'm doing statistically ends in failure, then I need to reassess my goals.

You can still make gains from carbs and fat, yes. Make sure you get some preotons later.

so /fit/, I had this discussion with my coworker today. I think you wont gain any weight if you eat a ton of junk each saturday, but eat a healthy diet with only water the other 6 days.
My point was literally: Do you gain weight from binge eating one day? I thought it was if you ate more than you burn over a longer period of time you gained weight.
