Dieting infinitely harder than lifting

>>40368526
Okay, I would definitely do either of those guys

Yep.

Been lifting for almost 6 years and I have the same issue.

Been wondering if I should perhaps get a contest prep coach so I can stay accountable to someone for daily/weekly macro and physique checks.

>>40368526
Dieting is only hard because eventually hitting my sets becomes hard.

>>40368526
If you're so worried about losing muscle on a cut then just use gear

>>40368526
Would you guys rather be the chad on the left or the chad on the right?

>>40368757
the long haired manlet is not a chad

>>40368757
right is undeniably better

>tfw started as skinny fat and still got a gut after a year of lifting

>>40369195
Short for Thaddeus.

What is the name of the Chad on the right? Always see this guy on Chad threads

>>40368526
don't alternate on a weekly basis, that's retarded

just do it man, cut or bulk in a dedicated way for a few months each

>>40369259
This. Thad is a rich boy surfer name if I ever heard one. Brad is a bit too poor sounding.

This is why people here give up on cutting and just call themselves powerlifters.

If you hate clean meals so much, have one clean meal a day and one "dirty" meal before sleeping that still fits your calorie intake goal. Try to have a more free diet by doing IIFYM, but don't go full eating anything you want, have clean meals, of course

I've been at it 3 and a half years and have attempted 4 cuts, all of which I gave up on after about 6-8 weeks and 2-3 stupid massive binges

bf% has never gone above the low 20s and I'm "jacked" to the average normie so idc too much but I might try 3 weeks of DNP soon

I will make a thread in 6 months on august 15th and post my progress just for you anon, I promise
I hope you post yours too

>tfw eating really is the hardest part
I keep trying to choke down the food, but I just can't eat enough to gain any weight. I've only managed to put on ~5lb over the past year of lifting. I'm getting stronger, but I just can't eat enough to pack anything new on.

>>40369370
>>40369223
>tfw stayed at 160 lbs for almost a year and now finally have put on 7 lbs within the past 2 months

Just eat when you are turly hungry. A lot of people don't understand that. I eat WHATEVER I want and have a bmi lower than most of the 4chan user IQ's.

>>40369147
Nope, guy on the left is Blad.

>Anyone else find that having a strict diet is the hardest part of a fit lifestyle? Going to the gym is something I enjoy, but I would rather fucking shoot myself than eat another clean meal.

learn to cook buddy. I just made a fucking awesome brisket in the oven since it's too cold to use my smoker:

www.amazingribs.com

The key to making delicious meat is to monitor internal temp very carefully - a digital thermometer is mandatory. Look up ideal temps for chicken, pork etc, and avoid going over and drying out your meat. My wife bought me one of those fancy thermometers with a metal wire probe that can be used inside the smoker/oven, it's made a huge difference to how well my food turns out.

>800 calorie deficit
Goodbye gains.

>>40371456
full homo

If I lived on my own I wouldn't have the issue since my meals can easily last me a week, but I live with my folks so I usually only get 1/3 of what I make and that's a best-case scenario.

I miss being on my own.

Right is flexing his muscles, sucking in his stomach, pulling back his shoulders, doing a semi-duckface and he still manages to look worse than the guy on the left.

>Brad is taking forever because he's busy talking with his dad

>>40368526
just do a small surplus instead of bulking/cutting. most natties, especially on /fit/ will just bulk and cut off the same 10 lbs after noob gains are done. its also cheaper than buying more calories than you need, then buying purely clean food

>>40371386
I'm never truly hungry, the only reason why I'm gaining muscle is that I keep forcefeeding myself until I feel sick.

No. It's the easiest part. Just eat less, fatty.

>>40373002
i realize i kind of fucked that up. i guess i mean eat a small enough surplus that you're not gaining unnecessary fat that isnt helping as much as you think to gain muscle, and then ease off to just above your bmr rather than eating below your bmr. i guess youd call it a lean bulk, but people confuse that term a lot
