Ok Veeky Forums I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago today and I haven't been able to squat or deadlift in that time, but my ankle is now almost mobile enough to do both again.
How do I safely build myself back up?
My maxes were 360 and 425 before the injury.

When calculating my TDEE, it says 'light exercise', 'moderate exercise', etc. I do about 7 hours of cycling a week, plus some other cardio about 2 hours a week (running, misc exercises at home like push ups etc.), but I don't lift (yeah). Should I mark low exercise still?

How should I drink my water and milk, fit? Which do I prioritize? I get that you need a lot of water, but I also need milk because Im still sorta young and want dem strong bones.

I've injured my arm while doing my bodyweight routine. Now I'm trying to figure out which exercise was responsible. The pain is coming from somewhere in between the lateral antibrachial muscles, the brachialis and the biceps.
It happened last tuesday and I took a break until yesterday. I thought it had healed up.. well, I was wrong.
Here is a list of the exercises (all bodyweight) I did that come into question. From most to least likely responsible for the injury (only a guess):
1. Slow negative pullup This one hurt the most, I felt a sharp pain throughout the injured arm
2. Diamond pushup This one also hurt quite a lot, but less than the negative
3. Chinups They hurt a bit, but not much
4. Parallel dips I've only started doing these recently and now I'm injured. Makes sense to blame them. But: I felt no pain while and after doing them
Also, I've been to a doctor and it's nothing serious. I just need to rest until it's healed.
How can I avoid injuring myself in the future? Does it even make sense to look for the exercise that caused this? Once I find it, should I stop doing it altogether?

Hey Veeky Forums, so I started getting serious about working out around the end of January. I started off doing machines and the other bullshit but have been doing brosplits for the last two months or so. Started SS today and I'm having a hard time finding my numbers. Is it also normal to feel uncomfortable with how little I'm doing in the gym on SS compared to what I was doing before?
TLDR: Should switching to SS after Brosplits feel like I'm doing less of a workout? At least in the beginning

Am I supposed to measure the amount of chicken or any other food before cooking or before eating?
Blake Nguyen
If by measure you mean weigh: Sure, why not. Counting calories is a good habit.

Does anyone make a good Preworkout that is STIM and Creatine free?

Where do calories come in alcohol? I mean what's the process, how is the ingested liquid converted step by step into ATP?
