  1. Nakakatuwa naman na alam ng karamihan mag-calorie deficit. It's important for everyone be on the same page to have a productive discussion. Siguraduhin mo din that you're losing just fat, not fat and muscle. The former makes you look lean & sexy; the latter makes you skinny fat & weak. #2 must-do is to lift (or any resistance training). Pair this with a calorie deficit and wait 3 months. You'll look & feel noticeably better. The duration/patience part is the final pillar of this holy triad of sexiness. Any dumbshit diet & lifting program works for 24 hours e.g. juice cleanse + Insanity. If it can't last 8-12 weeks, pinaparusa mo lang sarili mo. Many mainstream diets and novice lifting programs do work though; just try one and stick with it.
  2. Based on that DOST-FNRI lab test last year, parehong legit 100% whey. I'd also vouch for Rule 1, which was a spin-off set up by ON members. Depende nalang sa preference mo, price, & availability.
  3. Ideally? Di kailangan mag-supplement. Malimit mas mahal for the practical effects on your health. Also by definition, they are supplementary to a healthy diet & exercise. Di ka pa nage-exercise? Unahin mo muna yun bago whey protein. Di lalakas yung katawan mo kung di mo gagamitin. Wanna lose weight? No supplement will burn fat better than a 500 kcal deficit per day. Mas mura pa iwasan ang junk food. Trying to stick to/adhere to a diet is a different story. It takes weeks of setting & hitting goals before you gain the habit of eating healthy. For this, consider some supplements to keep you on track: diet soda. Yes, I consider it a supplement. It's a literal blend of chemicals that satisfy your sweet tooth without the calories of regular soda, juice, or other sweets. Consume liberally. protein powder (whey, soy, milk, etc.). Classic "gymbro" supplement, but it's just convenient protein. Madalas mahal at hassle abutin yung protein targets mo. Protein powders are super helpful. coffee or tea. Energy boosters & appetitte suppresants, but use in moderation. Masasanay yung katawan mo pagtagal, at masisira yung tulog mo kung inabuso.
  4. Fucked up toes on both feet from banging them on things while working out. Malas lang talaga, but thankfully my lifting isn't affected. Every few months, I do get minor injuries that disrupt my lifting, like knee pain. The key is not to stop working out completely, just modify it while doing rehab on the injured part. (Yes, kailangan mo din magpa-PT.)
  5. My man! The gameplay is objectively bad, but the premise of role playing someone playing an MMO is just so intriguing. Maybe not my top pick for PS2, but definitely a huge childhood favorite for its sci-fi/anime/meta gaming theme.
  6. On 3/12/2025 at 10:04 PM, shikoyapnya said: Does anyone have a workout plan for 3 days / week workout 2hrs each? https://thefitness.wiki/routines/gzclp/ Always go for widely tried & tested, freely available novice programs. In this case, GZCLP from the r/Fitness (one of the top fitness communities from Reddit) official wiki. It has a complete, but relatively basic, program for printing as fast as possible while also teaching you the skills to continue lifting as you get stronger and progress becomes harder.
  7. 100% yes. Napakarami na ngang pagpipilian kasi ang dali nang gumawa ng adult games from scratch using tools from making character models (e.g. Daz 3D, Honey Select) and putting it in a VN-like game (RenPy).
  8. Ok, try ko sila next time. Kudos for the newbie tip, sir
  9. Hi guys, pasensya na kung natanong na to dati, pero anong ma-recommend ninyong mga spa for (mostly) newbies? Tiga-south kasi ako, so medyo nalalayuan sa QC area
  10. Heard so much about the ending, but here I am planning to play the 1st 2 again but with the Galaxy(?) edition first. ME1 & 2 are some of the notably few RPGs I've ever finished, but I have so little time nowadays to focus on single, long games for so many days at a time.
  11. Seryoso, ang sexy ni Tron Bonne sa Megaman Legends.
  12. Yup, pero isa siya sa mga classic. KJ lang ang Patreon kahit naman fictional. Buti nalang maraming option sa F95
  13. Love RPGs. Kulang lang sa time haha. Chrono Trigger is my all time fave, and why I have a love of time travel stories in general. Also prefer easy games with great writing, regardless of genre (wag lang horror).
  14. Sobrang nakakainis yung pagmahal ng GPUs. Ang tagal akong nakapako sa RX 580, tapos last year lang ako nakakuha ng RX 6600 on sale. P15k kasi yung target budget ko na minimum 2 years, pero malimit ang liit ng perf/$ each gen.
  15. The boring, true but unhelpful answer is: eat less than you burn. Calories matter, and you must eat at a deficit to lose actual tissue. It's unfortunately necessary to add this "disclaimer" because so many people lack this info, or worse, were misled to believe that a phenomenon observed by a huge body (heh) of scientific studies on humans over decades was unproven. Okay. Now we're on the same page. The practical advice is just what strategy to pick so that you create that deficit (e.g. -500kcal/day to lose 1lb/wk) while avoiding getting too hungry or low energy. This is where one must test what works for them. Could be a huge shift in eating habits, like low carb or fasting. It could be a simple "no snacks" or "swap Coke with Coke Zero". In general, higher protein, higher volume, and more fibrous foods all fill you up a ton for the calories, so prefer those foods when you can. Good luck to my fellow overfat peeps on their fat loss goals. P.S.: lift weights while losing weight, otherwise you'll just get skinny fat.
  16. Agreed. Pati pala sa cardio, kailangan mag progressive overload. The primary metric regardless of cardio activity is duration combined with a target heart rate. Di ka dapat nanghihingal, but target a pace where you can't talk in full sentences easily. Siguradong mabagal ka gumalaw sa umpisa, but 5 minutes is 5 minutes. Over time, the longer you can keep your HR up, the faster you will naturally get. And the calories will burn off in proportion to that duration.
  17. Any fan of JRPGs should play Chrono Trigger right now. Hands down the best JRPG of all time.
  18. Agreed. Just walking up to 10k steps a day, for anyone that's sedentary/not walking that much currently, will make a huge impact on one's cardio & aerobic capacity.
  19. Had a supplement phase a few years back (diba tayong lahat naman hehe). Was the worst waste of money for <1% gains in any metric. I learned to focus on the Big Basics - good diet, training, & sleep. In my case, prolly the single best supplement is protein powder (whey, skim milk powder, or soy protein isolate). Protein is the most neglected macro, but also the most expensive one to reach decent daily levels. Unless you eat chicken breast, eggs, & TVP every meal, you'll be either spending a big chunk of your grocery food budget on protein, or not eating nearly enough to be healthy.

  20. Di ako nagpplaylist kadalasan. I just focus on the setup, then the set, then gauging the effort, writing into my notebook, watching my rest time, etc. Basically set up a chain of micro-habits para di ako tamarin sa (home) gym haha When I am in the mood for zoning out, I usually put on a podcast (e.g. Renaissance Periodization) or a let's play from one of my subscribed YT channels (e.g. Game Grumps).
  21. Posting a key ingredient to my home made meals that revolutionized what we eat at home: TVP (Textured Vegetable Protein) Taste: 5*/5 - TVP needs prep work (soak in water for ~10 min, rinse, squeeze), but will have a neutral taste and the texture of uncooked, zero fat ground meat. It's basically a sponge for flavor, and its best use is extending ground meat (e.g. pork) and using that in any giniling recipe (e.g. spaghetti, chili con carne, torta). Packaging: 4.5/5 - basic bulk ingredient. Shelf stable. Price: 5,000/5 - not kidding. TVP is the cheapest source of lean, whole protein by a landslide. Walang tatalo sa kanya. A whole kilo is just P100, but just 100g (dry) has 50 grams of protein and just 330 kcal! The biggest challenge is figuring out enough ground meat dishes you can eat per week na di nakakasawa. I got my household to 2 days a week.
  22. Nakakatuwa naman na puro magandang advice sa comments haha. Puro mga basics ng health, pero yun talaga yung pinakaeffective para tumaas yung testosterone. To add: The long-term goal of both diet and resistance training is to be lean (i.e. not over*fat*) and decently muscular. Obesity is the worst chronic state for the body, and *will* cause all of the common chronic diseases over time. It's also gonna keep your T level lower than your normal levels. If you're obese, drop that weight as fast as is sustainable, and lift the whole time so most of that is fat & not muscle.
  23. Search ninyo yung f95zone. Ang dami nilang adult games with user ratings pa.
  24. Probably one of the best investments you can make to your home gym ever. (An olympic barbell & plates is probably #1 haha.) Get you access to *safe* squats and bench press, convenient overhead press, and you have a ton of potential for more exercises by adding attachments to the pin holes.
