Today I started my journey

[Poppy]

Squats deadlifts bench pressing etc…

The big movements that require multiple muscle system interactions.

Basically the big lifts…probably include overhead press and several others.

Hahahaha. Gotta post pics of that

I don’t deadlift or bench but everything else yes

 

[NeuroRN]

Like no bench at all? Dumbbell? Barbell? Machine?

The journey starts ,but will never end.

I would definitely add some sort of bench even if it’s just the bar or dumbbells. If you don’t do deadlifts or find them hard or don’t have time for the technique yet you could try barbell rows. If you are not ready for those hit the machines and make your doing a push pull andnover head push

Unless your a pl I would bb bench maybe not even deadlift risk to reward is t really there for muscle building

Good on you with the overnight oats. I prep mine a week at a time and eat it at 6am every single day. Here’s my recipe, it eats easy and has everything you might want:

-1 cup rolled oats (I go organic/gluten free here because fuck glyphosate, especially in something that I eat a cup of every damn day.)
-1 cup oat milk (I sometimes sub regular whole milk but I try to avoid the sugar where I can)
-1/2 cup plain greek yogurt
-1tbsp chia seeds. (Great for your heart, easy extra calories, good source of fiber and fat, helps digestion…)
-1tbsp raw honey (from my beehives)

Nutrient contents come in roughly as follows:
-700-800 cals
-23g fat, very little saturated
-90ish grams of carbs, 18g coming as fiber and less than 7 as sugar.
-25g protein (I see no reason to add powder)
Plus you get kick ass amounts of calcium iron and potassium.

I do this and like 20oz of water before I even drink my coffee and shit in the morning and if I do I have no issue hitting my lean 4k cals every day. Usually I’m starving, could probably get 5k down easily but I don’t want to get fat! Eat to get big bro!

I do all that with the BBs the only really time I use the bar is when I do squats but everything else is BBs

 

[Poppy]

I agree with @Dirtnasty on deads. But I was never good at them…didn’t like them…got injured a few times training them.
