r/Weightliftingquestion

Progress after my second shoulder surgery, both were cause of genetis, right was when i were 18, left at 22. Got the go ahead to fully go back working out this january so it have been mostly a 4 months transformation to before, focused mostly on cutting so have not really gained that much muscle. Still decent progression strengh wise mostly cause of muscle memory...

Feel a bit sad that I did not progress really during these 5 years in the gym, but was very hard to keep up motivation when i knew how much of a pain and struggle it were after the first surgery.

Also I guess it is also of my workout split as I don't go as much of a bodybuilding split instead i do a general fitness, meaning say worked in balance, preventative or injure reduction for pretty much all my stuff.

Mostly any advice for good shoulder workout with arms below the shoulder, (I do army presses still but with lower weight cause that is where the problem lies, for example at 18 I could do 30kgs army press and now im doing like 17.5).
I mostly do the normal stuff idk the name of them but raising weights 90 degree to the sides and front...

Same with some good chest workouts. Feels like shoulders are small same and the same with my chest compared to before at least to the rest where I've been able to get to the same point as I were at 18. It is expected cause thats were the surgery was but trying to rectify it.

Pic 1 is like 3 weeks after second surgery, pic 2 is august when doing rehab. Pic 3 is like 1 month after I got the go a head of im back from my doctor, Pic 4 is week ago and 5 is 1 day before the first surgery. This was the surgery I've gotten in both shoulders https://www.medicalgraphics.de/en/videos/animation-latarjet-procedure-video/

ولو في اي tips اكون شاكر جدا

M36, 6ft3, 182lbs. I'm on my second week of getting back into lifting and this is my starting point. I'm definitely benefitting from some muscle memory from (VERY infrequent) lifting in the past. I'm not looking to get shredded or washboard abs, but I would like a more naturally athletic physique - bigger chest and shoulders, tighter waist, bigger arms)

I'm following a basic recomp plan (courtesy of trainer winny on YouTube) consisting mainly of compound lifts with progressive overload, with a little bit of ab exercises and a small amount of cardio added.

I'm not counting calories yet, but my guess is that I'm not meeting my maintenance (2800). I'm really focusing on protein to help with recovery, but my appetite is very low at the moment, even after starting to lift again. I've dropped about 14lbs over the past couple of months (due to stress, don't ask).

I know it's super early days, but any thoughts, recommendations, adjustments? Shall I try to meet my maintenance or could I get away with a cut? Or should I just carry on doing what I'm doing? Any thoughts are appreciated, as I'm very new to this

sorry for the trash quality. My back camera was shaking. How’s the progress so far? Been running 14.5km for 2 years, and last year I added push-ups, sit-ups, leg raises, lower belly work, Russian twists, standing crunches, and recently pull-ups

Can i continue the cut without getting a point where it becomes detrimental for keeping muscle mass?

I've been cutting for 15 weeks (losing 14kg/30lbs) and now took a 2 week maintenance period because I'm unsure what to do.

I'm not trying to get stage lean or anything, but lean enough to prepare for a long lean bulk.

im 19 go to gym 5-6 x a week 10k steps a day but i got a skinny fat body

I’ve been told I have bad lifting genetics wtv that means so I’m curious if there is even a point in bulking up or should I can another 10 off? I am about 167 at 6’1.

Serious question as I think, that I lost a lot of the definition I had
No favourable lighting either

I went from 82 kg (181 lbs) to 78 kg (172 lbs), but I still don’t really see a six-pack. Sometimes I can see it in good lighting or after a workout. I’ve been training abs for months and I’ve been cutting for a while now. Should I lose more weight, or bulk? I really want a sixpack

Have I made good progress after 3 months of fitness?

pls help

My diet as been good, but my weight is still the same in both pics, I am natty an donky home workouts I need advice on how to gain weight, BTW does not having post workout meals affect a lot?
