Thank you,
Im checking out the site, and it might not be up my alley because of my back. Currently I cant really lift weights. I just got able to do push ups relatively normally. BUt this 5x5 thing is very interesting. Following Athlean X keeps stressing quality over quantity. SO im thinking of using this method adapting the workouts to use body weight. instead of using double the reps for less which obviously puts a lot of stress on my arms and shoulders, less reps in multiple sets with correct form Is very interesting. I would like to point out, that I have an ok by my doctor. And She pretty much forbids me any for of diet. her reasoning that in this fase of weight gain I shouldnt avoid any foods, FOr the simple reason to acumulate a tad over minimum for all nutrients in my blood, I use supplements for those, b complex, cink vitamin c kalc magnesium and vitamin d, i regained my appetite, and actually feel energized enough.
Reading this, I actually Was wondering, Is the protein diet actually a viable option for maintaining a certain weight? So right now this is more of a future plan. Once i reach a goal i would like to maintain it rather than gain.
What is your take on the whole idea ?
Thank you for you time.
