From personal experience, I did a -1200 calorie deficit for 12 days and lost 11lbs. Strength remained the same. I’m not gonna spend the next 4-5 months (at a 500 calorie deficit) trying to lose weight when I can do it in 1-2 weeks.

I'm confused, since muscle memory will help get the muscle back quicker, wouldn't a crash diet still be a net positive

Bro I’m on a 1000 deficit 😩 losing 1kg a week consistently and been gaining strength week by week. I’m 11kg down at 81kg now. I was made to believe as long as I’m on 2g protein per kilo and gaining strength I should be fine for muscle maintenance

Jeff - just wanted to come on here and say like a lot of us how sorry we are for your loss. Stephanie was such a bright light in the fitness community. I found her on YouTube when I was young and impressionable and she was such an incredible force. So inspiring, so gentle and so informative. We will never forget her.

I only eat heavy on days I work out and eat one meal a day the rest of the time, usually a protein shake or something, as a truck driver this seems to help

Hi Jeff! I just wanted to say thank you. Your science-applied approach works perfectly in the real world. I’m a 43-year-old woman in a 24-week caloric deficit with 15 days of maintenance built-in, and after 7 months, I plan to do another full month of maintenance. Applying your principles completely transformed my body. I’ve lost 10 kg (9 kg of pure fat based on monthly bioimpedance scans, protecting every gram of muscle). I stopped switching exercises randomly, respected my warm-up sets exactly how you teach them (to avoid fatigue for the effective sets), and focused on a 3-second isometric contraction. Today, I’m redoing my upper body day with severe DOMS but hitting a 29 kg clean Rows and 36 kg Chest Press. My lower body is stronger than ever. Even the coaches at my gym are shocked by my knowledge and execution. Thank you for making high-quality, evidence-based fitness accessible. You are a huge part of my journey!

Hey Jeff! I’ve been in the gym CONSISTENTLY ~3 years. I am curious to know, what’s better for hypertrophy? 2x to failure 5-10 reps, or 3x slowly decreasing RIR 8-12 reps?
