Not looking for perfect influencer diets just what you actually eat day to day that helps you stay consistent and make progress

I actually reduced volume slightly and focused more on quality recovery and my progress improved So I think it’s both depending on the person

Air fryer potatoes with lean ground beef Simple but hits the spot

Honestly spreading calories across 4–5 meals instead of 3 huge ones helped the most

I’ll keep going back to the same brand now because I know it mixes well tastes decent and doesn’t upset my stomach not all powders fit that

Creatine is still number one for me Cheap proven and actually noticeable

You’re probably overthinking it After 6 months just being stronger than when you started is a win Numbers vary a lot person to person

Short rests always gas me out I recover slow so 2 minutes is the sweet spot for me My reps stay consistent

Try giving it a couple more weeks Your body might just need time to adjust to the new training time

For fat loss fasted workouts can help some people stick to a routine but performance usually suffers I’d say try both and see how your body reacts
