I never read the sticky, but I'm pretty sure it discusses water weight somewhere. Regardless, how new to bodybuilding are you, if you haven't learned that your weight fluctuates depending on water retention and other things then you are too new to post on my Scandinavian fishing forum. REEEEEEEEE

water and poop, my man. my weight fluctuates +-8lbs during the course of a week.

average person has 1.8 litres of glycogen in their muscle & liver.
1.8 L = 1.8kg = 4lb.
thats if you start completely carb depleted.

Always weigh yourself at the start of each morning.
I'm planning to cut 10 lbs lower than my real cutting goal to avoid this.
how is 2550 a +300 kcal surplus for you? I'm 5'11 160, currently eating 3000 kcal and I just stalled at 2 plaet squat/3 plaet deadlift... shit sucks

I have a sedentary lifestyle, i just go to the gym for 40-60 minutes 5 times per week then spend the rest of the day playing vidya or watching T.V , so the result most TDEE calculators give me is 2220 calories to maintain my weight

1.8 litres of glycogen.
U sure?
>>36673764
Density of glycogen is probably not the same as water. Also, I'll casually jump 6-7 pounds depending on the day whole looking exactly the same in the mirror

Bullshit
I dont have that much mass at 15% bf, and I've been low carbing for a while. When I do a massive rapid fat loss style refeed, even after I shit, I am literally 8-10 pounds heavier.
Now that it's 2016 is this board just a trolls-trolling-trolls board where everyone pretends to be misinformed about thermodynamics and shitposts ironically because if you are all this fucking uneducated I am REALLY UPSET OK
10/10 made me post a thread about it
