Can you gain strength while cutting?
I've been working out for 5 months now + have been physically active for the past 2 or 3 years, did some calisthenics and shit. I'd say I'm still a beginner or early intermediate. Lifts are 62,5kg ohp, 92,5kg bp, 115kg squat, 162,5kg, all for 5 reps, started at 40/60/60/110 for reps. I weight 92kg while being 177cm. Rely makes me thnk considering that I dont look more than 20% bodyfat. Beach season where I live starts in 5 months so I have plenty of time. Can I possibly cut slowly while GAINING strength considering the fact that I'm a newbie with decent weightlifting genetics?
No it is impossible to gain strength and lose weight

Don't listen to this fag.
It's possible if you're a beginner to intermediate level lifter.
But it's much harder than gaining strength while at maintenance or surplus calories, so you probably won't feel yourself getting stronger if you're cutting for an extended period of time.
You're more likely to maintain your strength cutting from 19% to 11% than gain strength. You're also likely to lose a little strength, but if you're doing heavy lifts and getting your protein and fats, it will be minimal.

Stop confusing strength and mass
If you want mass, yes, you can cut and gain mass but it requires exceptional dedication to dieting
Gaining strength while cutting probably not, but thats not my area of workout so I wouldnt say for sure.

Idk i eat everything on bulk and dont give a single fuck
>>40165761
>>poor half a gallon of whole milk into a large pint
>>add 2 scoops and stir that shit real good
there is a limit to the amount of protein sequestration in a single sitting, I think it's something like 20g, go find some papers on it
good hustle though, it's bizzare that people complain about bulking, eating is so much fun

How many miles do you run a week?
>>40161529
At least 6*5 so ~30+ miles
This is all at a relatively slow speed of 8.30 minute miles.
0
But I hike 100+ miles a week does that count.
About 15
6 days of 2-3 miles
How do I encourage my gf to work out with me?
She avoids doing prolonged out door activities because she's ginger, which I kinda agree with because she gets burned really easily. So I wanna motivate her to go to the gym but the last time I brought it up, she thought I was saying she's fat and nearly cried.
>>40161343
make her feel insecure. She will either work out, or cheat on you with a DYEL that doesn't intimidate her as much.
>>40161343
Tell me how to get a gf then i will help you?
>>40161630
Nah that's really mean and would be counter productive
>>40161661
Your goal shouldn't be to get a gf. You need to meet someone you want to make your gf.
