This is the advice I was looking for ..even though I’ve watched Mind Pump for awhile now ..I needed this exact question answered 🙌🏾

It’s good to see Kevin Smith getting motivated to get lean and fit!

Yes, this is what I've been trying to find for so long through different QUAH's

I want to thank you so much for this channel. It has helped me so much.

Legit best advice!! Love how the old days of low calories is on the out. Not sustainable .

This podcast is Gold

Great question!!

As someone that lost a lot of weight I’d recommended that he just increases his calories to around 2800 and go from there, I put on ALOT of muscle over the course of a year on a deficit,

What's your secret to putting on the muscle while on a deficit, I'm in the middle of my own body transformation and as more and more weight comes off, I am getting different challenges.... Any more insight would be greatly appreciated....

this is the first time I heard that I needed to increase calories. I've been hundreds of pounds over weight all my life. Do you know how much time I spent eating under 2000 calories? No wonder my metabolism is wrecked. I have so much to learn still.

I think that’s alot of people! That goes for me as well.

Wow this hit home! Ive lost 50lbs crash dieting... 🤦 But now I know better an I'm actually resistant training. Im at 165 with 20% body fat. Im terrified of eating more than 2300cals. Sucks because Im still losing wait but I know im also losing muscle... This gets very overwhelming sometimes! 😔

Thank you for this! I'm not exactly obese but I did start out from 220LBs on a crash diet at 1200 calories and now I'm around 184LBs and slowly increasing my calories to maintainence. Right now I'm at 2075 Calories and I've lost body fat over the past few months but there's still an ugly gut hanging out which I'd like to remove as well. I'm hoping over the next 6-8 weeks of strength training and increasing my Calories, I'll eventually be in a better shape

how did it turn out for you brotha?

I wish I could afford y'all program. Living paycheck to paycheck and trying to be healthy is hard 🥺

As an obese person, formerly grossly obese (465 pounds), I'd say this is the most difficult. mental hurdle of all - I cannot imagine eating over 2,600 to 3,000 calories and it not be matched with an high intensity workout day or some planned cheat/holiday perhaps.... Argh.... :-(

Question how do you find the workouts from Mind Pump. ?

The scale messed with me plenty times ...I'm 225 and would lift weights and over 3-4 months I would go to about 237 ...I felt stronger and doing more reps ECT but gave me up plenty of times because I let the scale determine me working out when should have stuck with lifting

Do you need to eat the same cal on restdays?

how do you know if you have a slow metabilism ? im 5.7 i know overweight lost 2 stone recently im on 2000 cals i can eat that and not be hungry 4 meals split evenly wuth cals throughout the day, i walk at least 10000 steps a say and do a 3 week full bidy split at the gym

I'm at 21% BF. 5"8 at 172 lbs. Waist 36.7 inches. Maintenance at 2400 cal. Currently on a deficit eating 1900 cal daily. 6 workout days per week. 18 total sets per body part per week. Should I continue the cut or go above maintenance?

I'm 20% BF with 180lbs about 5.7ft tall. I'm eating 1800 calories. If I eat more than that I gain body fat. Been doing the big 5 compound 3x a week for 3 months, before that a split and bands for a long time, hitting PRs and all on the compounds but I feel like I should be eating more.

I am right there with you. I am 5’8, 175lbs and 21% body fat. I started at almost 200lbs and 27% body fat 4 months ago. Trying to consume between 1700-1900 calories and about 180g of protein. Recently I’ve noticed that if I don’t eat carbs with my last meal of the day and doing just 15-20 minutes of cardio after lifting the weight suddenly started to fly off.

What advice would you give to a woman because we done build as much muscle? Is the process the same?

Same approach for women. They have many female clients and have spoken about using this same approach. Women can still build muscle without looking muscular.

Im frustrated by this advice… it feels like the mind pump advice to everything weight loss related is “actually u need to eat more”. Would it not be best to keep with a consistent resistance training program while at a deficit to maximize fat loss and minimize muscle loss? Especially someone who’s 350 I would think the priority would be to see fat come off first… maybe I’m just projecting here but the mixed messages about fat loss amongst fitness professionals is driving me crazy, im motivated and want to make the changes but everyone says the right way is something different it’s frustrating

going from 2000 to 2300 is considered bulking but for someone over 300lbs that’s still below maintenance. I don’t think is terrible advice. I’m no expert just giving my 2 cents from my point of view
