Dude if it's just for the one day, I strongly suggest this (incoming broscience):

2 days prior to the day, eat your usual clean lunch, then nothing but water until dinner. For dinner have a protein shake. The next day you will consume nothing with caloric value, which pretty much leaves you with water, BCAA supps (make sure no carbs), thermogenics, black tea/coffee without sugar, and you get the idea. During this day do a heap of really low weight lifting and a bit of cardio - you wanna get rid of fluid while still trying to encourage your muscles to hold onto a bit. Don't forget you're not eating anything at all this day, just non-caloric fluids. After you wake up the next morning and take a piss/whatever, take a pic of how you look in the mirror and post results.

I'm sure there's more effective ways of doing this, but I stumbled upon how effective this can be when I got my tongue pierced and had no choice lol

Thanks for the tip but too late

Comp is tomorrow 9a.m,

I also have my sister in laws birthday tonight at a Yum Cha Restaurant

And then she wants to go out to the nightclubs

Maybe I should do the running man all night and it can be my cardio :woot:

Drink shitloads of water tonight, try not to hit the booze too hard....at least alcohol is a diuretic lol. Drink a heap of water before bed, but nothing when you wake up. Have a hot shower beforehand too maybe. Just gonna have to rely on convincing your body to drop water then dehydrating it.

Haha yeah I was thinking alcy is a diuretic

But nah ill lay off the booze tonight so i can wake up early tomorrow and do a light gym sesh

Cheers brah

who's judging the comp?

Probably ourselves based on 3,2, 1 vote system. Highest vote wins but cant vote for yourself.

All of the gfs will also be there so they could vote if they arent biased lol

So ended up being a draw between me and a mate out of 4 guys

Split winnings

Went to Maccas to celebrate and bill came to over $100 lol

Also decided to try and shed water weight so only sipped on water throughout yesterday

Ended up losing an extra kilo in a day. Not sure if the extra ab definition was there as a result of it tho

Congratulations on the win, even if it was a tied first :P still a good effort....also wtf @ your mate's massive weight drop :S

Would I stack up? lolz, tomorrow morning should be interesting,

Yeah definately a good chance nohomo

Do you guys have any opinions on weight gain per week/month to gain as much lean mass as possible but smallest in fat gain

I've heard anywhere between 0.5kg per week to 0.5 kg per month

I'd say depending on how much you actually have to lose, 500-750g of fat loss per week wouldn't be too detrimental. Your lifting would eat shit I reckon though, but that's just from lack of fuel.

I can't comment on lean muscle gain sorry. Not even broscience like the above lol

If you're gaining 0.5kg a week in lean muscle it's not going to be naturally. That means you would gain 26kg in lean muscle over the course of a year. Even with newbie gains the most you might see is about 5-10kg lean muscle MAX.

Inb4 "one of my mates gained like 22kg last year… he says it was all lean gains"

There's no exact figure for that are you're asking for the impossible. All that matters is the practices you undertake to achieve it. Just stick to a clean diet and make sure your gym sessions are calorie burners. Calories in, calories out.

Protein shakes like BN are useful here because they are a protein source without the fat or carbs. As has been said though, trying to gain muscle without the fat is the hardest way. Not impossible...I've gained any muscle I have that way...just hard.

    • @soviet_merlin Thanks mate!  Nothing too major but will hold me up for a while. I've got lymphomas to get taken off the back of my neck and the middle of my spine which always conjures scary thoughts!  It sounds worse than it is. Yeah great, conjuring more rabbit hole deepening , just what I need! 🤣  
    • I'd argue the F50 kit I got is very good value. For ~2k I got the calipers (refurbed condition), adapters, pads, brake lines, rotors, and top hats. I think you'd be pretty hard to get Evo/GTR/350z brembos + the additional hardware for similar money. Used market for a pair of front calipers alone I've seen tend to run anywhere from $1500-2000 depending on condition.    That said, something like a GTR or 350z brembo is a lot easier to adapt to the Silvia. 
    • Is there a significant price difference between the Evo/gtr/350z brembos vs the F50? Looks amazing.
    • I was actually being a tightarse at the time LOL... My OCD is tickling me into running a 2nd 8AN Teflon hose all the way down and removing the 2x OEM hardlines. My other side of my brain is telling me to run 2x hardlines front to back (also acts as a fuel cooler, so win win).
    • As I mentioned in an earlier post, I had some trouble with the Silvia's brakes dragging back in 2023. I managed to sort it out then, but the same problem came back to bite me late last year. Just take a look at the picture – I had a feeling the handbrake was acting up again, and I was right. Anyway, I'd been wanting to upgrade to bigger brakes for a while. Not that the Silvia's brakes were bad, but it was more of a "want" than a "need", you know? It was funny, though – at the time, I couldn't find any Evo Brembos, 350Z Brembos, or GTR Brembos for a decent price (of course, tons of them popped up online after I already bought my kit!). I ended up going with an F50 Brembo kit, which came with adapters, brake lines, 330mm rotors, and top hats. The F50 Brembo caliper was used in a few other cars too, like the FPV. I also decided this was the perfect opportunity to ditch the Silvia's ridiculous rear brakes and that awful handbrake (some of you were definitely right about that!). I picked up some R33 calipers and all the necessary bits – rear drums, backing plates, and new hardware to refurbish the calipers. Of course, it wouldn't be a project without a few hiccups. Turns out the brake master cylinder was playing up and basically (to put it simply) keeping the brakes engaged. I had it overhauled, and after some adjustments, everything was working again. The whole process took a while, as you can imagine. To top it off, the front right wheel bearings were shot and needed replacing too. This is a rare occasion where I'm posting an update while it's all still fresh! These pictures were taken just this afternoon.
