And what does session B look like?
Squat 5×5, overhead press 5×5 and deadlift 1×5 with the same exercises as last time unless you can provide me with any feedback on what else I could add instead please?

I recommend you writing the sessions out in complete format mate.
Exercise order and number of sets
In principle I dislike your suggestion, but I may be misinterpreting what you’re saying, so clearly laying them out will be useful
For one training session I will be doing squat, bench press and barbell row for 5×5 then I’ll be doing close grip bench press for 5×10, barbell curls for 5×10 and skull crushers for 5×10.

Why don’t you have a pop at it mate and give a rationale for the movements tht you’ve chosen, then we can critique
It’s good for you to think it through and relate movements to areas you want to develop. Much better for your own development than someone just putting in a suggested set up
Close grip bench press to supplement bench and a tricep and bicep exercise to make sure I’m not lagging anywhere.

Well I was thinking of doing close grip bench press, barbell skull crushers and barbell bicep curls to save time and keep my whole training session in nearly one space and a few pieces of equipment. I was thinking of doing those three moves in each session I do. What you think? I would post screenshots but it won’t let me load them up for some reason.

Workout A consists of the squat, Bench press and the barbell row while workout B consists of the squat, overhead press and deadlift. Any help is welcome ?

What does vitamin D3 and K2 do?
-
The only supplements I think are truly essentials are to cover your bases in terms of protein, EFA’s and micronutrients. This means a good multivitamin/mineral, Vitamin D3 & K2, fish oil, and whey. Creatine is effective and cheap enough to be included as well.
Muscle maintenance is largely going to come down to hard training and providing enough food to fuel that training, whilst still being in a calorie deficit to lose fat. This means keeping the deficit moderate and pulling food away from training, on non-training days and meals furthest from training on training days.

Hey man, how long ago was that? I’m sorry to hear the medication has influenced your weight in the wrong direction.
Here are two pics of me 5-6 years ago. Like I said, I get how it feels, I used to think every day about how it would be to change things, to wake up at a different weight. It was easy to start diets, but it was also easy for me to drop them. It took a big personal event in my life to change me, and force me to not only start but to stick to the diet, and I’ve been on a “diet” since. I promise you, these compounds are not the answer. You need to find, dig deep, what your WHY is, and let that drive you every day. You CAN do it.
I was about 15 on the last two pictures and 16-17 on the first picture. The ones I posted up earlier is 22 years old. I was at a healthy weight of 75kg when I was in hospital intil they put me onto Olanzapine which I gained weight all the way too 112kg. I wasn’t happy about it at all, so I have recently (about a month ago) decided to go on a calorie deficit and now I’m about 105.9kg. My goal weight is to hit around 80kg then bulk up from there. Or if I fancy seeing my abs probably about 68-70kg I’m guessing but not sure as I’ve never seen my abs in my whole life. I get thin, I get fat, there’s no in-between for me. Just a clusterfuck of a life I have.

It’s going to be extremely hard to get to that bf % target. I think I was around 20% in the first two images, not sure about the third. But as you can see from my other pictures on page 1 you can see how much I’ve put on due to medication. But luckily they’re changing my medication so hopefully I’ll start losing that fat I put on.
Well. Its swapped the images around, so the last two I think I was like 20%. Not sure though.

Hey man, i know it’s hard do be at that body weight and you want to do EVERYTHING to get into a shape you envision. But TRUST me, it won’t be overnight, and it won’t be through drugs. I went from 296-298lbs down to 152lbs, in the span of a year and a half. Diet is KING for that, healthy activity helps, but drugs are unnecessary for your goals at the time. You CAN and WILL look your best if you check all the other boxes for months. Be patient, be disciplined, and once you are down to 12-15% bodyfat, then you can at that point reconsider your enhanced options. Cheers bro ??

Wow, 1900 is low for a 100+kg male!
Because I wasn’t losing any weight at 2000-2300 cals.

I do Stronglifts 5×5 three times a week. How often and when should I do cardio? Keep in mind I go too college as I’m learning sports to become a personal trainer for powerlifting.
Losing bodyfat comes down to creating a negative energy balance.. meaning you need to take in less calories than you burn. This is done through diet and how much you move, so you need to drop your calories and add in cardio until you see the scale start dropping every week and see your body changing. If it doesn’t move, then it’s up to you whether you then drop even more food or add in more cardio… and so on.
Make sure you have a structured diet plan to follow, an amount of steps to hit each day and a certain duration of cardio. With the amount of bodyfat you have to lose I’d be doing this daily.. start at 20 mins, then gradually increase.

I already have my diet in check. Weighed myself this morning and I’m 105.9kg, five days ago I was 106.5kg. So my diet is fine. I started at 2300 cals a day and wasn’t losing weight after 5 days so I lowered it to 2000 and wasn’t losing weight for five days then I lowered it too 1900 and I’m now starting to lose weight. -
I would seriously advise you to drop some bodyfat through diet, cardio and training first before even considering using any assistance. These are a tool that can be added later down the line once you’re in a position both physique and knowledge wise, but you first need to stay consistent to a structured plan and be committed to losing some bodyfat.
I would spend ALOT of time researching during this time. Work your way through the whole education section, browse the forums and ask us as many questions as you like along the way. If you’re serious about getting the results you want, then trying to find short cuts without any knowledge will not get you there any quicker and will likely hold you back and have negative consequences on your health too.
