6’5, 79kg with no gym - what should I focus on when I start going gym?

hitting everything 2x a week, managing fatigue, eating 1.6g protein/kg bw, focusing on carbs, eating fast digesting carbs 60-90 minutes before a workout, caffeine 45min before the workout, 7-9 hrs of sleep

For now I’ve just been on a mainly chicken n rice diet and chug like a litre or two of milk everyday - is this ideal in my situation or should I switch it up a bit

its fucking dogshit, honestly, you're eating in a surplus which does absolutely nothing to help you build muscle. 0 contribution

try to eat around ur maintenance, don't go over 100 calories on ur tdee. if u dont know ur maintenance, u can get an average, just type "tdee calculator" input ur data and don't overeat.

if, however, you wanna enjoy a cheat meal go for it, ur skinny as fuck anyway.

I think these sites are horseshit

The best way to know your maintenance or to be as close as possible to it, is to weigh yourself (fasted, morning, after pee and shit), track what you eat for minimum 2 weeks and then see how your weight changed.

I would only use these sites to know roughly what to eat in that 2 weeks phase and adjust accordingly

Do not rely on them

They all use the same shitty formula which isn’t accurate

They show that my maintenance is +400 calories than it actually is lol

If i listened to it for long enough, I would get fat asf

Btw OP, don’t focus solely on protein and carbs, but on fat and your micronutrients which are very neglected often but are very important (obviously)
