Who Here Has Ascended?

probably not you, OP

Look my body doesn't know a fucking thing. My body doesn't know shit.

why the fuck would I let my body think if my brain can think better?

I'm listening but my body doesn't really speak

Yeah, I pretty much train intuitively. Having lifted actively for several years I feel like I got the know-how to do so rather successfully. I do heavy basic lifts and combounds with varying accessories. But I always listen my body and that's how I cycle rest days and that even determines what I'm training at the said day.

I believe in variety, consistency and progress. I'm not a pro nor am I training for any greater purpose than liking it, so I don't see why I'd change my ways and autistically follow a routine. I've done it in the past, but it just felt like I couldn't give my all, or that I wasn't able to finish the sets successfully.

No one shouldn't do this in the beginning but if you just lift for fun, I see nothing wrong with my method once you've gotten to a point where you actually know what you are doing at the gym and now how your body reacts on different things.

Your body just reacts, so if you are sensitive to this you can know AFTER you do something whether its good for you. You cant just listen to your body and ask him what he wants retard.

yo.

i've been winging it after like 6 months of being really serious about diet and strict lifting.

I eat what I want when i'm hungry and i go to the gym when I feel like it and do what I feel like I need to do now and i'm seeing much better results.

when I was strict about sticking to a daily routine I had so many days where I had to drag myself to the gym but I also had rest days where I really wanted to go.

i think we all know intuitively how much physical activity and food we need but modern sedentary lifestyles can interfere with those instincts and a period of time where you follow a strict plan is beneficial in getting that back on track. it didn't take me very long either.

>listening to your body

Maybe one day, but right now my metabolism and mental health are so fucked up that I have to resist everything my body tells me.

Don't lie in bed and eat 3,000 calories of pancakes!
