  • HI, I was wondering how people get to post in the regular forum? I have been trying for a while to be promoted but alas this has not happened. As a former season ticket holder you can assure that I am no troll! I also noticed that somebody who has joined only a few days ago had been promoted to post in the regular forums, which seems a tad unfair to me :(
    Whats that Bilbao youth team like?

    I want to let you know that one of your admins by the name of Solius has been causing trouble for myself & other folks. Solius was extremely rude & condescending in some of his replies to me & he deleted my posts, despite all my posts followed the guideline of redcafe.net. Solius is a bully to myself & others & he's using his power as an admin to bully & harass. I sincerely hope something can be done about Solius.

    Like Austin Powers? ("Oh behave...") I think it was said by Austin Powers
    Damn you saw that, I almost had the last word.
    I will change to you later, I just need to keep SR's vote too.

    Also, how long would it take Riyami UTD to realistically get down to 10-9% body fat?
    Summit
    He will never get there, as he doesn't listen to advice. Hope SR doesn't see this.
    What do you think of the results?
    Are they good or average?
    On this rate how long can i realistically get down to 10-9% body fat?
    Ive been on a cut for almost a month now these are my results:

    A month ago(26/1/2014):
    weight=74.4kg
    muscle mass=33.5
    body fat mass=15.9

    bmi=28.0
    %body fat=21.4
    waist-hip ratio=0.90
    basic metabolic rate=1633

    Today(23/2/2014):
    weight=74.1kg
    muscle mass=34.5
    body fat mass=14.2

    bmi=27.9
    %body fat=19.2
    waist-hip ratio=0.87
    basic metabolic rate=1664
    Hey Zarlak
    when do you recommend that someone goes on a cut?
    What body fat % should signal for someone to go on a cut?
    Zarlak
    Whenever they want to lose weight. They just need to be aware if they don't have much muscle mass they're going to look sick if they get down to single figures.

    Like you ive been working out for 6 months almost i feel like i have enough muscle mass but im not sure, should i start cutting now or work out for 2-3 more months?

    Im at 20 bf is that too much?
    Zarlak
    I've been working out for a lot longer than 6 months buddy! But it's upto you. You've gained a max of 10-12lbs in that time muscle. Anything further is likely fat. 20% bf is not too much, it's about normal for people that are either bulking, or who don't train at all.
    Hey Zarlak,
    I have a random question:
    should your workouts differ if your cutting or bulking?

    If so, why and how?
    Zarlak
    No, keep them the same.
    Hey Zarlak whats up

    Im trying to post my pics in the thread of my daily meal plan but it doesnt show up, what am i doing wrong?
    Zarlak
    You need to upload it somewhere first. Use imgur for example.
    Riyami UTD
    Ok done thanks for the help please check my post if you dont mind
    Riyami UTD
    Hey Zarlak
    Like I told you before my brother has been counting his calories for the past 2 months and he both built muscle and lost fat according to his physical results!
    Riyami UTD
    Sheeeeeit
    I guess its not possible :(
    ill take the body fat test tmrw at the gym and ill see if it has increased or decreased since i joined.
    Zarlak
    Seriously, let go of this notion about losing fat and gaining muscle at the same time. If you're not a kid in puberty lifting weights for the first time, or morbidly obese then it's not going to be possible. BCAAs are amino acids, found in protein and thus found in food. Selling BCAAs as special, is like saying that you should buy a car because it has seats inside. All cars have seats inside.

    Hey Zarlak,
    theres 1 more thing that i shouldve mentioned yday about losing fat and gaining muscle simultaneously ,

    Creatine helps in retaining muscle mass so if i go ahead and try to lose fat by exercising( insanity, p90 etc) would that be a solution for not losing much of you muscle whilst trying to lose fat?
    Thanks for the advice.
    Ofcourse I meant doing those and maintaining a suitable diet.

    So if i cant do both, whats the solution to cutting fat( not trying to lose weight just to be clear) and getting a six pack and being more cut?
    Hey Zarlak,
    Ive asked this question before and i got alot of different views and answers so ill rephrase:

    If i decide to combine insanity for 4-5 times a week with going to the gym for 4-5 times a week what would happen or what would i be able to achieve?

    Would I get cut?
    lose fat(im at 19% body fat) and not gain muscle?

    Would I be able to do both if im at a suplus or the opposite?
    Question to the caf experts:

    Ive been contemplating about doing insanity workouts 4-5 times a week to burn my belly fat. now ive gone through the general forums and some have posted that its impossible to lost weight and gwin muscle.

    Is it possible or impossible?
    If so why?
    Hey Zarlak sorry i have one more question that i need your opinion on ive posted it in the gym newbie thread.
    Hey Zarlak need some advice i recently got my Whey protein and Creatine-time to get serious!!!

    About the Creatine loading phase is it beneficial or just a tactic by companies to make people buy more of their products?
    Zarlak
    The difference is acute at best,
    Hi guys i started going to the gym again I did a bit of research and went through this thread and im thinking about combining these two programs:

    Jim Stoppani's 12 week shortcut to size
    the full body workout mentioned in the previous post by Resonance

    Do you think this is suitable and effective?

    Also have you ever tried or reviewed Animal cuts?
    If so do you recommend it?
    About the squats, high blood pressure is likely to cause temp hearing loss, and that pressure increase comes from holding your breath. If that doesn't work then just lower your intensity.
