how much bf and bloat affects me

[Deleted member 19869]

here is me when i was bulked up and bloated like a damn chipmunk, at 5'11 175lbs, chewing food my throat all day long and high salt and worked out and jerked off until my dick was blue, cortisol was probably sky high from all the jason blaha 5x5 gymcell routine


failo when thin boned guys like me bloat from literally just one meal high with salt

compared to pretty boy me at at 140lbs 5'11, one meal a day and rotted in my room




should i starvemax and try to become prettyboy again?
at 170lbs atm, seems like the high t ogre plan did not really work out for me

depends on your bodyfat percentage

Post a shirtless selfie on here to get feedback on whether you should cut or maintain. I don't think anyone here is going to tell you that you need to bulk further at 5'11" 175.

This forum seems to have a pro-leanmaxxing bias if you are tall and a pro-bulking bias if you are short like me.
I got down to 12% body fat @ 5'5.75" 128.1 lbs. But I was twinkmaxxed at that size. I got up to 135 lbs and I'm doing some maintenance now and plan on going up more in weight in the future.

idk what body fat percentage i was before, it was probably not overly high, it was just all of the sodium & carbs that bloated the fuck out of my thin framed ass

percentage is the key. Higher your weight, slightly lower % is better. I think the benefits of more muscle is worth the temporary loss in looks.

Also take debloat supplements like Dandelion Extract, Potassium powder, etc.

im just really sensitive to salt, even when i was lean, 1 meal of high sodium bloated the shit out of me, guess it affects everyone differently

and yeah when ur at that height u should focus on getting as big as possible imo, not really over tier height doe. You can always save up for height lengthening surgery and go over the risks.

i don't think in my case, its hard for really thin framed guys like me

dandelion root did not work for me, took it for 6 days and it did nothing at a high dosage

Takes weeks to see effects of the supplements

I'd get your BodyFat % with a gym scan

Have you used dandelion root?

if so how long did it take for you to notice the effects of it, and at what dosage?
