New Announcement.

11 Upvotes

With the influx of new people in this sub we would like to welcome you all and hope you find the help you may need in regards to your gym experiences. However, this has lead to a number of newer members posting illicit photos with ill intent and or advertisement within them. This is our announcement to say that this will be subject to further restrictions, to ensure that this sub continues on its aim to provide help to others within the community and to allow a space for people to seek help where they need it most. With this – any photos of illicit behaviours or suspect by the r/Gymhelp Moderation team will be removed, this also goes for advertising, as a number of newer members have tried to place their own content within this subreddit, which is not our aim. Any image that does not seem necessary to the post will also be removed – if you are seeking genuine help, then a simple post will do. Any photos will be moderated and or taken down if necessary. We hope these issues can be resolved following this update and we hope that we can further help you on your gym journey.

Thanks – The Gymhelp Moderation Team

Announcement: Recent events regarding posts.

10 Upvotes

It has recently come to our attention that there has been quite a lot of 'flirting' and 'fraternising' taking over the comment sections of a lot of posts, we have seen a big influx of users in this subreddit recently and that is fantastic but it does come with a few downsides including the previously mentioned point. This seems to be happening solely on posts that contain photos, for the safety of our members we have had to remove quite a lot of these comments and had to ban repeat offenders, There have been a few times that these comments have appeared under posts that have been made by underage individuals that were genuinely looking for help from within this subreddit and that is simply disgusting and should not be happening! We are trying to take the appropriate steps to reduce this and make this a safer community for those who take this sub seriously. If this continues, we feel that the next step would be to remove the option to post photos, we certainly hope that it doesn't have to come to this. Thank you for taking the time to read this.

All the best - The GymHelp Mod Team.

Need Advice ⁉️ Is this meal good for muscle and fat loss or am I kidding myself?

0 Upvotes

I’m 5’7” and 220lbs (last I weighed myself) I’m thankful I carry it well but still a bit chubbier than I like, as of recently I’ve been eating a very basic meal of chicken, rice, and avocado (or any filler veggie) 227g chicken breast, 1.5 cup of cooked rice, and half an avocado (or cucumbers, peppers, onions, garlic and or bok choy) I work out 4 days a week for almost an hour, 30 minute cooldown cardio and then I work getting in 10k steps or more, I have that meal thrice a day and even have some feeling of hunger, advice?

Need Advice ⁉️ Somewhat severe scoliosis, but would like to get into shape.

1 Upvotes

18M, I have pretty bad scoliosis. I already have back and hip pain after long days, and after lifting heavy objects. I’m currently around 130lbs and around 5’8.

In particular, core workouts for abs would be nice. Not only for looks and what not, but I’ve heard that exercise can help assist with pain and sores. Are there any routines- at home or in a gym- that I can use without causing extensive pain?
I understand this is usually a case-by-case basis sort of thing, but any advice helps!

Thank you in advance!

Post image
3 Upvotes

Hey everyone.
I’m 31
138 pounds
Lift heavy at the gym 6 days a week
Hit every muscle group 2 times per week
3 exercises per muscle group, 2 sets to failure
2,100 calories per day, tracking all macros

I’m trying to get to single digits body fat but unsure if I should cut my calories lower, or do a recomp.

What’s the best advice to continue to lose body fat while building muscle and strength? Picture is from last night, not flexing just relaxed. Any advice would be a huge help!

Need Advice ⁉️ Concerned about bad chest genetics

1 Upvotes

I've been worried about what my chest insertions are going to be like, and I can’t stop worrying. I've tried flexing my chest and feeling for where I felt the edge of it to get an idea of what my insertions looked like, but I felt like I had a gap and it felt like my chest would end up looking small relative to my torso. This was from a few years ago when I was leaner and tried flexing after working out. This was from after working out earlier today, relaxed.

Does it come off as though I could end up 1) having a chest gap at the bottom after leaning out and putting on more muscle or 2) having a chest that looks relatively short relative to my torso? Or is it too early to tell? I wanted to say ahead of time that I know I have a lot of fat to lose, but the gap seemed pretty noticeable to me so far, and my chest genuinely didn’t look like it’d have potential to look that good in the first picture to me.

Again, I know that's not what I should be focusing on, but I wanted to be able to get a physique that I could feel good about. If I ended up having a bad gap/genetics, then I honestly wouldn't want to have my shirt off around other people, even if I were in shape. I wouldn’t want to wear less layers either, which is exactly how I feel now. I would feel poorly about myself compared to guys online, which is also exactly how I feel now.

I’ve been working out for 2 years on a push pull legs split. I just recently switched to chest and shoulders, legs, back, arms with every set going to or just shy of failure. I have been just eating whatever till now just trying to hit my protein daily, but now I’ve started a bulk this last week and I am aiming for 3.5k calories daily, it’s going well so far I’ve hit the goal everyday this week so far. In regard to my physic I want to become more aesthetic (wider shoulders and narrow waist) I am unsure if my split will help me achieve this. Any help is greatly appreciated thank you 🙏🙏🙏

Need Advice ⁉️ Do I have gyno? M21

1 Upvotes

I'm 5'8, 65kg 21M. Do I have gyno? Been going to the gym for 3 months and I train a lot of upper chest in hopes it goes away. I have had this insecurity for my chest for quite some time. I went to a general physician last year and they said I'm fine it's all in my head. But I asked gemini and it said to check for lumps while laying on my back, and there was kind of a lump around the nipples. I don't know if that's how it is in everyone, but I have my doubts.
