Great Gym Week my strength is slowly approaching back up to my Power Lifting Numbers, this week I repped 350 on the bench, Squat and Deadlift over 400 pounds with ease, just to get a feel of Thing's.

About to start my 5/3/1 and The totals at the end of the 5/3/1 if everything goes as planned:banderas:

Tip: Where Does Body Fat Go When You Lose It?
Only 1 out of a 100 people really knows what happens to fat when you diet. Sad!

Okay, What's the Real Answer?
The short answer is that you literally breathe most of it out through your lungs. The rest leaves your body via urine, sweat, and any and all other liquid bodily secretions.

Here's exactly how it happens, step by step:

  1. All fats in the body exist as triglycerides and many of them are stored as droplets of oil in the fat cells that exist throughout the body. They exist as a fuel supply.
  2. If you cut calories through diet or exercise, an enzyme called hormone-sensitive lipase is activated by hormonal messengers and breaks down triglycerides into glycerol and fatty acids.
  3. These breakdown components are then released into the bloodstream where they're absorbed by first and foremost the liver, followed by the muscles.
  4. Once absorbed by the liver or muscles, the triglyceride components are further broken apart and rearranged, resulting in large amounts of acetyl-CoA.
  5. The acetyl-CoA combines with oxaloacetate within the cells' mitochondria to form citric acid.
  6. This initiates the citric acid cycle, aka the Krebs cycle, which generates carbon dioxide, water, heat, and ATP.
  7. The carbon dioxide then leaves the body through the lungs as you exhale, while the water exits through mostly urine and sweat. The heat that was released through the citric acid cycle maintains your body temperature, and the ATP generated powers every movement you make, whether conscious (walking, lifting a weight, chewing gum, etc.) or subconscious (the beating of your heart and breathing, among other things).

If you wanna feel your legs burning I recommend a drop set on the leg press
I do 1100lbs for 3 sets 12/10/8 reps and after the last set I just take one plate from each site off and continue repping till the leg press is empty
Been doing this for a long time now, its :wow:
People sleep on leg press. I made one for my house, have to do it one leg at a time. I'm a big fan

The gym is getting lame now, instagram brought too many hoe nikkas in there.

I was about to fight this bruh in the gym, over some hoe shyt yesterday.

I was using the lat pull down and I was switching the wide bar to use the v-bar (close grip pull downs) and some bruh, with his fat white bytch tapped me on the shoulder and asked me "you going to use this, pointing to the v-bar grip on the ground."

The way he asked me, bruh made it seem like he was trying to get tough and I did not like homie tapping me.

I was like yeah and I said to myself I can use two single grip's and make it into a v-grip bar. So, I asked bruh, you going to use it right now and dude was like yeah I'm going to use it. I was like fukk it and gave it to him.

A couple of seconds later, I look and see the bruh was not using it and gave the shyt to his fat white bytch and he was over in the corner. I was low key pissed at this sunken placed motherfukker, because bruh lied and fukkes my workout up.

I should have let that shyt go, but I hate that lying shyt. So, I walked over to bruh and told him about that shyt and bro why didnt tell the truth and said you chick wanted to use it. Bruh started hoe explaining and I was like this a bytch nikka and I walked away and his girl was like:lupe:.

She knew they did some hoe shyt and she sent that nikka off and he was about to get fukk up over some hoe shyt.

I should have let that shyt go, but I was mad pissed.
I'm confused..... you were mad he said he would use it but gave it to his girl :dwillhuh: Why does it matter :dwillhuh:
