So I'm about a month into my first cut and I'm wondering if what I'm experiencing is normal. I've lost about 9 lbs but most of it was first week water weight.
My squat has gone down by 70 fucking pounds. All my other lifts have maintained. In fact, my deadlift went up. What the fuck am I doing wrong? I don't think my deficit is too severe based on my rate of weight loss so what gives?

In the same boat as dis guy, except my lifts are improving (cept for OHP and Bench). My weight has maintained at like 270 for about 2 weeks now, despite trying to keep under 2k calories and lifting every other day.
My girlfriend has pain in her lower back, directly in the spine. She told me it started about an year ago when doing weighted abs. She had her spine checked by professionals but they said it was nothing, it still hurts everytime she tries to tilt her pelvis back (when you try to make your ass look big),and it also makes sound everytime she does ab exercises.
Any help? Any tips?
I'm in the market for a new pair of basic versatile every day shoes. I heard something about Chucks being good and economical for lifting for some reason or another.

I like these. Would it be a mistake to get them?
>Canvas-lined with lightly padded footbed for comfort.
If my goal is size am I wasting my time with low rep ranges (3-5)? Would I be better off aiming for 8-12 reps?
Is it safe to lift when you've got a cold?
My joints feel a bit weak/sore but I dunno if it'd actually impact much.
You should do both, for example
>3*5 bench
>3*10 dumbbell incline bench
Size is dependent on strength and volume. You won't get bigger without progressive overload and the best way to do that is heavy ass weights.
They're good for lifting because of the thin/hard sole, which also makes them shitty for lots of walking.
You'll be fine just be cautious
Any help?
