Down 75 pounds but feeling soft still. My bench is 195, squat 205, aiming for ripped and 315/405 respectively. Thinking of hitting the gym hard. It feels like I&amp;#39;m constantly dodging obstacles, kinda like playing &lt;a href="https://run3gamefree.com"&gt;Run 3&lt;/a&gt; , but in real life.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Workout Advice to get stronger and "Ripped"</title><link>https://www.sixpacksmackdown.com/thread/109?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Mon, 02 Feb 2026 06:08:48 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">4e57d3c4-b13b-4df7-9d6e-674567b6c930:2416ad65-c48d-4db6-9a5d-d7ba6c09c978</guid><dc:creator>Leadyons</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hey! Congrats on the awesome weight loss so far, that&amp;#39;s a huge accomplishment! Since you&amp;#39;re already seeing results with diet, keep that consistent. As for the gym, focusing on compound lifts (bench, squat, deadlift) with progressive overload is key. Maybe check out some beginner strength routines online &amp;ndash; lots of free options out there. Remember, consistency is more important than perfection. When I was getting back into shape after an injury, I&amp;#39;d take breaks playing&lt;span&gt; &lt;a href="https://snowrider3dd.github.io/"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Snow Rider 3D&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;to clear my head. Just remember to listen to your body and don&amp;#39;t push yourself too hard too soon! Good luck!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Workout Advice to get stronger and "Ripped"</title><link>https://www.sixpacksmackdown.com/thread/90?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Thu, 22 Jan 2026 06:31:31 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">4e57d3c4-b13b-4df7-9d6e-674567b6c930:73ab8f3c-245d-4cb2-97b3-424bbdbc7a9f</guid><dc:creator>appleton</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;At 19, getting into a routine is key. It&amp;#39;s like&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://cookieclickers.io/"&gt;Cookie Clicker&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;, you start small but consistent clicks lead to huge gains. With your height, focus on compound exercises. Given your current maxes, a progressive overload program is ideal.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
