gonna get ripped as (frank) loll

More like get cardio without hitting failure limiting muscle gains. Biggest issue with home workouts and lack of weight is you get tired before your muscles, connective tissues and nervous system fail

Change up your rep scheme for a few weeks to topple your plateau or figure what your weakness is (lift off from the bottom, lock out, etc) and use accessory lifts to push through. We talking squats? Bench? Deads? Overhead?

to be honest, for now I'm not really looking for more gains, I'm satisfied with the current results lol... if I do look for more though I'll have to change my diet, because I'm semi-careful with my food intakes during the week, but on weekends is where I stop giving a (frank)

yeah, when I started gaining weight I thought "holy poop the sky's the limit" but now I just enjoy working out, and don't really care about stuff like body fat %

For what it's worth when I say gains that doesn't always mean muscle gain or fat loss as much as lifting total but I get your point. For most people I refer to it as the t shirt test, if you're good with how you look in a t shirt then you're good

i am a jeans and t shirt guy and seeing a little beer belly was what made me freefall into the abyss of total carblessness.

I saw American Pie recently and all I could think was "I wore jeans that baggy. Why the (frank) did I wear jeans that baggy"

Meh a cheat after losing all those pounds can be helpful to spike your metabolism higher after an extended period of slowly going lower. As long as you're back on plan you should not only be fine but may benefit from it
