Pleb 🍾 Running the score up

Those are good carbs and proteins you need. I eat those too. Creatine in terms of muscle building just causes your muscles to hold more sugar water (glycogen) in them (so they look bigger). More glycogen in the muscle during workouts you can fuel them better and usually gives you a quick strength and size increase. Creatine is usually a win-win.

Cardio is great and mostly improves lifts. Unless you are in an extreme catabolic state and have extremely low levels of body fat your body will never burn muscle for fuel. Protein is the most inefficient fuel source for your body.

No that is your straw man against my opinion. There is a diminishing return to calorie intake. Mass gainers will push people over the edge into a healthy calorie surplus given they eat normal meals. If your baseline is 200g a protein a day and you eat a total of 2000 calories and that is your maintenance level you will gain less muscle than if you had eaten the same protein and had 3000 calories, putting you in a caloric surplus.

If you take steroids and do not give your body the fuel to grow along with a high level of muscle stimulus they will do absolutely nothing.

If you have a baseline amount of protein say 100g your body will use all of that protein to produce ATP given it has excess calories (Carbs, sugars) to do so. Mass gainers are usually a mix of whey protein and complex carbs to ensure you have enough carbs and protein to repair muscle.

The prisoners wanted the milk (whey) or tuna for protein and needed the complex carbs from instant noodles or bread. Their body had enough energy to convert the protein to ATP because they had the excess carbs to do so.

You can just not very efficiently. Reference lawn mowing example.

Your body burns fat first then your muscles. Your body does not want to break down proteins for fuel because it's very inefficient relative to carbs or sugars for fuel.

Your body burns glucose, carbs, fat then proteins. In that order, for fuel.

You will gain more muscle given the same amount of protein intake at a maintenance of say 2000 calories vs a calorie surplus of say 3000 or 4000 calories.

You're bulking because you're body is literally starving for fuel if you don't feed it. You're not eating just to eat, you're hungry all the time while you're anabolic.

I would be losing muscle if I were not working out or eating enough to maintain them. Your body does not "prioritize" fat or muscle cells. And you're totally wrong that "fat cells convert to muscle cells". Eating more gives your body the fuel to 1) exert yourself at the gym enough to cause muscle breakdown. 2) provides enough energy for cells to breakdown the protein you give your body into ATP that fuels and grows muscle.

You're straw manning me by saying if I workout and eat 10000 calories I will just gain fat and muscle vs eating 3000 calories I will gain less fat and same amount of muscle. So easily dismantled.

Of course you did you just gained less than if you were to be in a calorie surplus.

It's like saying I cut the lawn with a scissors and it took me 10 hours. If I had used the lawn mower I could have done it in 10 mins.

I'm here a month into my cut eating a cheeseburger, in a calorie deficit, no mass gainer during this period, cardio every day. I'm losing weight eating "trash". How is this possible?

Your muscles will grow when you give your body excess calories and protein. If you're not in a calorie surplus your muscles will not grow and you will not gain fat. Mass gainers will most likely along with regular eating put you into calorie surplus. If you're in a calorie surplus your muscles CAN grow and you may gain fat with that. You and nostr:npub1an6xs9jt6apmw45rmvu8pnspewdp6juwcgp76fk72ruky4dmcadqwfze63 are so lost.

Private police forces will be the norm for wealthy neighborhoods. Expect most services that are usually provided by the local municipality to become privatized. Firefighters, water treatment etc.

First step towards citadels.

This is by design. Social security is the states version of life insurance. Their husbands probably paid in their whole life, never got fully paid out what they put in.

The state won.

The state is betting you die before you can receive all the money you put in.

The govt is ramming through stable coin regs to get cash deposits to defecto buy bonds. All the stable coins buy treasuries (largest buyers of govt debt). Harvest public deposit accounts to support the bond market.

Don't forget to change your IP address at least once per day.

This is, by any measure the correct answer. Not a massive fan but it's timeless.
