Fitness

A place to talk about fitness and health on Farcaster.

Tell me something you wish you knew when you started the lifting.

For me, it was stopping being in a calorie deficit (I was a little overweight and didn't want the extra weight) and eating more protein. I've gained about 15-18 kgs of muscle and little fat, if any.

I'm into computational biology and I work on deep generative models- Crypto Enthusiast- 
Also a gym rat so I love cooking whatever is derived from chickens *_*

I would have loved to know the importance of sleep and how to recover better between sessions !

I would have loved to know the technique of each exercise instead of moving the weight around too much. jiji

Rest days and deloads are important for growth. Rest days = growth days

Record workouts and use progressive overload. I found before that I was just trying to smash out as much weight as possible. But now just add a little each week consistently
