Breh I run 5km/3.1miles EVERY morning on a fast. My time ranges from 20-22minutes, then continue to do another chilled 5km/3mile run under 25 min.
Other days it's sprints.

This is all before I even go to the gym, where I'll still do some row machine and stationary bike.
All in the name of Cardio.

I can't imagine anyone saying this stuff is easy. I'd love to see some pics.

I currently weight 90KG/198lbs.

Bulky and muscular, if I didn't do all that Cardio, I wouldn't be able to have a somewhat visible 6pack.
I imagine he doesn’t mean the work is easy but that once you get dialed in the process becomes easy/achievable. The work is never easy, we all know that.

Also your way is just one way. The running you do isn’t for everyone. Someone could lift and walk and get similar results.

There’s no need to go super hard on cardio. A nice comfortable run that gets you sweating at least 45mins 5 times a week will get your goal. Yall keep coming up with these excuses to stay :flabbynsick:

Runs are not supposed to be comfortable at some point...:yeshrug:

It's the same approach as weights...progressive overload...

My Vo2max has increased significantly after I added more jump rope and more running...

I'm sprinting better distances with less fatigue

Sometimes the knees say:ufdup:, but I push as much as possible until the knees go:whoa::flabbynsick:

The body adapts to comfort

That's me in September 2020 at around 83KG.

I'm bigger and more rounded now around 88-90KG.

I think you brehs need to put up some receipts.

work + long bulk then cut + genetics + gear

the first 2 will get anyone an excellent physique. The latter two are what separate excellent from incredible :gladbron: type physique. You won’t look like him but you will be the best you that you can be

I left “hard” out of work because it’s really not hard man. Folks over complicate and overhype the difficulty of getting in good visual shape in order to sell you shyt. I also don’t consider shyt like preworkout, creatine etc as gear, only actual drugs. Only 2 things really matter in my experience

1) Consistency
2) Calories in and Calories out. Eat more to bulk, eat less to cut

I eat whatever the hell I want really but I make sure I’m hitting the gym hard (heavy weight) 3x a week, and then 2 lightweight active rest days (nothing heavier than 35lb dumbbells).

if you got time to play COD, or watch full nba games you got time to get in shape.

Yep people think roids can make up for shytty genetics and work out/diet habits

they can mask some of it to an extent but like we always say. If you want to get your money’s worth you need to have your nutrition in check. I personally think people put too much into workout programming and not enough into diet.

nah breh. I’ve seen Reddit cacs on steroids look worse than me :mjlol:
And I think I’m far from brolic

that Physique Phriday shyt on r/fitness is fascinating man
you got people counting macros obsessively, stressing over whether or not to juice and min/maxing this fitness shyt like its a RPG like this shyt is a 1:1 exact science

log off, go work and eat some more food (or less if youre cutting)

“I try to tell people to put as much effort into your diet as you do your weight training. Everyone goes to the gym 4-5 days a week that’s into it, but they don’t eat sufficiently to fuel that.” - Jay Cutler (Not the QB)


Took me years to figure that out.

:snoop:

Eat big, lift big, then cut when you feel you need to. Watch these vids to give you an example of what you have to go through.










There’s a bunch of these type of vids on YouTube and these guys make vids of their grocery shopping to show how to shop on a budget.




























PS...do it for you and not for p*ssy.
