To be fair, @TruthBTold wasn't specific in the OP. Good news is they have applied for approval, here is a story from last month: Gilead Requests Approval of Descovy for PrEP

Processed foods lead to weight gain, but it's about more than calories This was surprising to me: When I go shopping, I frequently notice families with kids with tons of ultra processed food in the cart. I was telling myself this was just anecdotal. Perhaps not...

I am sticking to the theme of the OP, opening credits, credits have to be on the screen. If we open it up to opening scenes, this thread would be very long...

However, I should be clear, if they reach out to me later, I'm usually still open to a session.

It's customary on this forum to provide a link to an online profile for the person you are inquiring about, to facilitate people responding. Frequently a good samaritan will post one for you, but it really should be in your OP. Adding a city is optional, but is generally helpful as well. Since your profile says you've actually been a member here since 2015, it seems like you might know this already. ?

Well, this is a can of worms, so I guess I will pitch in with my contrary self, so I should say up front the following is my personal opinion. For sure, you will likely find no end to people who are willing to offer a plan, usually for money, without regard to its suitability for you (or anyone, for that matter ). To be clear, this is what you have asked for. I'll explain a little bit why I say that, and why my opinion is this is likely not a good approach for most people, which would include you. As you mention, there is no single answer, but I think it's important to highlight why that is. The reality is that long term success or failure depends on each person coming to grips with the reality of their own particular physiology and psychology, and how these two things interact, something that for all practical purposes is unique to each person, and then each person identifying a fitness strategy that fits their unique characteristics. This means not only diet and exercise strategies that are safe, sustainable, and effective for each person, but also strategies that each person can, and will, adhere to. Without this, success will be extremely difficult. It seems like most people are not in touch with this at aspect at all, they have no idea what their personal characteristics are. I don't think this is a problem or an obstacle, we all have to start somewhere. As long as they realize this is something they will need to figure out as they go on their journey and stay alert, this will likely work itself out. But this is why I would say no one here can really prescribe a solution for you, we simply aren't ever going to know enough to be able to make an informed recommendation, if we are even qualified to do so (I'm not). We don't' even have the most basic info about your characteristics (a/s/l? ) like current fitness status, fitness history (including limitations), and available resources like time and money), so that leaves only the most generic guidance. My favorite description of the advice giver/advice seeker relationship was to think of yourself as an airplane pilot, talking to ground control. You can solicit all the advice you want, and it's very rare for people to not offer something, but ultimately, if you crash the plane, it's your ass, not theirs. Aside from people who go all in too early and get frustrated and quit, the personal fitness world is littered with the human wreckage of people who blindly followed strategies that were never suitable for them. Take care to not be one of those people. If you will be applying your strategy on your own, this is particularly important. Don't be fearful, but do you own research. Don't follow a strategy just because it worked for someone else, but also, don't hesitate to incorporate elements that suit you into your own strategy. I concur with @Rudynate about having a mix of physical activity, and to not ignore your diet. While you need a strategy that is custom for you, there are still truths, like you can't out-train a bad diet. For some context, I have been enjoying the Shredded Sports Science channel on youtube, he has been doing a good job debunking BS, which you will encounter a lot of, no matter where you look: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCXrqErU_TjqiHAHJkzITAvg/featured I particular like his ongoing emphasis on individual characteristics. For bodyweight exercises, there is an entire plan over at the subreddit /bodyweightfitness https://www.reddit.com/r/bodyweightfitness/wiki/kb/recommended_routine Since this includes progressions, it can be tailored to each person. But this is just one place to look as part of your research. Edit to add: Generally I would recommend not comparing yourself to others, for a lot of reasons, particularly people on the net, many of whom are trying to make a living off of social media stardom. Think in terms of your own potential and how you can acheive that. Good luck, you can have a lot of fun, it's not all drudge work.

Literally!

I think we all know this is a lie. Personally, I wouldn't have responded after his second, pointless, message. So you have a lot more patience than I do. I honestly don't know how working guys withstand the deluge of insanity on a daily basis. It really makes me appreciate when I meet someone and they are nice to me.

I see what you mean. I think he needs to update all his profile pics to reflect his enhanced muscularity. He could start just grabbing some frames from the teaser video!

You and me both...

Interesting first post, welcome to the forum. You might want to read this thread: https://www.companyofmen.org/threads/please-no-escort-reviews-on-the-message-board.138667/

When I talk to working guys about joining this forum, I say there are lot a thoughtful people to have good conversations with. Then I point out there are a smaller group of people with unlimited senses of entitlement cruising the board, looking to play keyboard kommando and heaven help you if you don't see every little thing as they do, or have you own opinions, as they seem to have nothing better to do than chase you around the forum, harassing you, so if you decide to participate, you'll need to decide how you want to handle them, and whatever you decide, stick to that strategy. Unsurprisingly, they have all passed on dipping a toe in here. My feeling is that for guys who are less established, it's just not worth it.

For that, you are the bigger man than I, but I suspect everyone knew that already!

If I asked someone a question that they had already taken the trouble to set up a website to answer, I would expect to be ignored... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
