Any tips on wider forearms?

I've been trying deadlifts, isolating & hand grip bullshit. Is roiding the only way?

currently on SS.
For my OHP, my last workout it was fairly difficult to complete. I finished 3x5 however I was using a lot of my back.
I'm only on 60lbs. Should I go back to 55? Start with 45 again?

What's the meaning of life?

How does size relate to martial arts?

Would a big guy (4 u) excel at something like jeet kun do, or would they be better suited to something that involves more grapples?

it's what you make it out to be desu senpai senpai

are you a female

Is watercress any good to eat? I've heard it's better than the kale meme

Life has no meaning so it's whatever you want it to be

...

Take dumbbells, sit down with your forearms on your thighs, and curl your wrists inward.

Depends on your school of thought.

I went to Case Western

That is entirely up to you

Why is my OHP so low? 75 for 3x5 is pretty much max. I've been working hard and dieting for 3 months, and it's barely gone up. Wtf? My form is at least decent.

Is this b8?

What's a good ab workout that I can do on the days I don't go to the gym?

Plank
Side plank
Buy an ab roller

Can you get ripped doing calisthenics? Let's say constant training for like 1-3 years without brotein or roids. Whenever you type natural muscles in google 99% of the results are guys on roids or bortein or both.

I've been doing cardio at 75-80% intensity for 30 minutes 6 days a week. I'm trying to lose bodyfat mostly before hitting the weights, am I going the right path or should I count macros too?
I'm not counting at this moment because I think that I'm at a growth spurt (shoulder span got bigger a few weeks ago).

42

>s-s-s-sticky

No, but you can get laughed at.

Is it a bad idea to run on rest days? Should I instead run on workout days?

I've been put on some anti psychotics which are part tranquillizer, I have no energy to work out I mean I have to take a break walking up the stairs, I don't want to lose my physique so does anyone know anyways to get more energy? a friend said stop masturbating but I think he was joking

What do you think my bf% was in this pic. This was me in February.

I might sound retarded asking this, but when you get injured, you go to the doc, or to the physio?

either is fine if you can recover from it.

maybe you're a small weakling whose not destined to press heavy. what do you bench?

any leafy green is nutritious. if you mean good as in taste, then thats subjective. just fucking eat some and see.

generally the bigger you are the less mobile/fast you can be - but you're not gonna get 'so damn big' that it matters. do any martial art that looks interesting and dont get fat.

depends how much of your back you were using. as long as form wasn't that fucked, just try up the weight as normal.

however you can deload 10ish% and just work back up if you feel you need/want to

I would guess less than 100%

So my gym doesn't have an assisted chinup / pullup machine. Are there any other exercises that can replace chinups or pullups for SS w/accessories? I'm a fat as fatass so I can't do them yet, but want to add accessories.

>assisted chinup / pullup
You mean asking for a spot?

Running a ppl while cutting. Would it be a good idea to eat at maintenance on my rest days to preserve strength, or should I just maintain a constant deficit?

i know you arent supposed to bend your knees inward during squats, but what about outward, past the angle your feet are pointing?

>does working out periodically (like september to november - pause cuz exams - february to may - pause cuz exams) even have sense? or it's like i wouldn't work out at all?

>does working out when not eating clean have sense?

the sticky doesnt answer what im asking

am I supposed to drink whole milk or skim milk for gomad?

no lat pulldown machine?
most gyms have them

whole u gay retard

gomad is a bad meme btw

I'm roughly at 17-18% bf. Should I cut down to say 14% then do a slow bulk?

is that true Clenbuterol makes you lose fat without diet?

These repeating integers of course :^)

How to train lower body with calisthenics? Should I just continue to train lower body in a gym with squats/deads? I don't mind doing so; I just like the idea of working out in a park during the summer.

nothing, I repeat NOTHING makes you lose fat without a caloric deficit. So you always have to limit your eating to some extent even if you're on fucking DNP

148
5'5/166cm
19
Bf%: 25% I believe

Should I use cutting steroids? If I should what kind. If I shouldn't should I stick to supplements?

Also what happens to females that take steroids? I've always wanted to know.

how long have you been lifting and eating properly? If the answer is less than a year then you have no business roiding.

>no, you should have a proper diet and use legal shit like thermogenic tablets or choline+inositol until you reach like 10% bf

also steroids are usually hormones, so for ex. if a female takes shit that makes her testo levels high she'll have deeper voice+bodyhair and shit like this.

What are some cheap + healthy foods? Just need to spice my diet up a bit but I'm also desperately poor

Is it bad if I only use machines? Should I be doing more free weight exercises?

milk
beef or chicken parts
frozen veggies
rice

if you care more about health than about cuts you can buy some cheep fruits like apple

That vulva legit looks like balls and a dick bulge.

Nice.

So Veeky Forums, wanna get fit but it doesnt feel like i have the time for it unless its late in the evening around 7-9 PM(studies at daytime with work 3-4 times a week during afternoon), my question is if it good for the bode to exercise before you sleep (with time to calm your tits to be able to sleep) lets say i do 20 pushups before taking a shower and saying goodnight for the day,would it affect me negatively in the longrun?

not really bad if you can train the muscles properly. for example Hoist machines are pretty good, they're like free weights but you can't fuck up.
I still recommend some free weight exercises like benching and squats and sometimes biceps ex.

rice, beans, frozen veg, fruit such as bananas, oranges, apples, kiwis, chicken breast/thigh, frozen fish, oats, just basic salsa is great to add to stuff. Everything I listed can generally be found for $2.50 or less a pound. In general just buy store brand, buy in bulk, & take advantage of sales. Fitness is actually very, very cheap.
>implying fruit is bad on a cut

oh, forgot to mention peanut butter & whole grain bread. Also nuts when bought in bulk are very cheap and an awesome source of healthy fats

aaaand sweet potatoes, regular potatoes (home fries got DAMN), and eggs. I've been doing the budget fitness thing for a long time and have come to love it.

It's certainly better for the body than not exercising, but you should really do more than just pushups. I suggest getting a full calisthenic routine such as startbodyweight or the r/bodyweightfitness one. They take like an hour and I have no trouble sleeping after. At the very least you should balance the pushups with pullups or inverted rows or you'll look weird as fuck

I do not know where you live m8, but here sweet potatoes are fucking expensive.
Like 8x regular potato price

Also:
How to make rice enjoyable? I fail on that

Thank you for the advice,ofc the pushups thing wasan example and im thinking a workoutplan for the whole body, maybe 10-20 min per exercise, other than push ups and pullups what are some exercises good for stomach and legs? (im pretty sure i can lift my bodyweight if not more with legs alone)

try different varieties until you find one you like, experiment with seasoning, and never eat it on its own - just adding chicken and broccoli or even beans makes it a lot more enjoyable. Rice is the cheapest calorie source outside of white sugar or flour.

Thankyou for these. Chicken, rice and veg is boring very quickly.

That question deserves its own thread...

I'm stalling at a 3x5 57,5kg bench press, I'm 179 and 71 kg, cutting about 300-500 kcals a day. Is this something I should just accept, or is there something wrong here?

That's kinda mean. I bench 115, almost got to lmao1pl8 before current cut

~16%

why is your chest so small familia

Help.

I had this weird lim p pointed out to me today that arises just when I push off on my leg. It sits about 3 inches above my left ankle bone. It doesn't hurt and it is soft to the touch and able to be pressed down.

Has anyone ever had anything like this before?

How big was your deficit? I'm stalling at 57,5 kg and I'm cutting at around 400 kcal.

Because this was before I started lifting. Nothing but cardio and some body weight stuff before that.

This was me like a month and a half ago. Trying to lean out before I start bulking.

If you're just doing pushups, why not do them right before you jump in the shower in the morning?

What exactly is /1/2/3/4/5/

Redpill me on cardio.

Recovering fatass eating at a big deficit, been doing SS for about a month and a half with decent noon games, but know I am going to stall soon.

I feel much stronger in daily life, but still get out of breath fairly easily.

How often should I be doing cardio to get dem heart gains

good job user, keep us posted in CBT threads, in 6 months youll be another completely different person

Is keto a meme? My doctor recommended it to me because my family history is full of diabetes and I can barely function after two days of no carbs, my presence in the gym is diminishing and I have the biggest headaches.

>post asking for advice on a routine
>"read sticky hurr durr"
>sticky suggests SS or SL for beginners
>post asking about SS or SL
>LMAO HE FELL FOR THE SS/SL MEME, USE A BETTER ROUTINE FAG

So what the fuck routine should I do?

carbs are an easier pathway for your body to use for energy, compared to ketones. so yes it is a meme unless you need it medically. Just limit calorie count by lowering carbs if youre cutting, and upping them when bulking. yhou also want to slightly reduce fat in a cut, and likewise increase it a bit for bulk, but carbs should be the biggest fluctuation. Eat your carbs user!!!

Just pick a beginners routine (SS or SL are fine for that purpose, but there's plenty of others) and go for it. You will never get Veeky Forums to agree on anything even when its trying to be helpful and most of the people here either don't lift or don't know a fucking thing beyond the one book they skim read.

1 plate (on both sides OHP
2 plate bench
3 plate squat
4 plate deadlift

never heard of /5/

something retards use as a standard to tell you if you're strong or not

SS/SL being a meme is a meme in itself.

You should do either of those for around 6 months to build your strength up, and then choose an intermediate routine that suits your goals.

SS + accessories is what I would go for. Just chuck in some dips and chin ups.

Keto @ 500 cal deficit

PPL or an upper lower split, both with a focus on linear progression. SS is an out of hand meme.

PPL X1000

found the angry faggot who hasn't hit the 1/2/3/4 benchmark yet

that's even worse. go lighter until you get form down.

every other day is fine. everyday is better if you're trying to lose weight and can handle it.

Isn't the 1/2/3/4 really easy if you're willing to get fat?

>How often should I be doing cardio to get dem heart gains

Daily. The degree is up to you. Bare minimum is 20 minutes of brisk walking but 50 minutes of walking is some solid cardio. Don't let HIIT shills meme you, as a recovering fatty your joints won't be used to the high impact frequent running would cause. Walking will build up your bone strength to eventually do some HIIT without risking injury.

You could try getting on the Couch to 5K program and jog with it but I highly recommend at least a week of walking before you do that.

I walk on my lifting days and jog on my rest days now and since I started I'm having a lot more gas in the tank at the gym. My resting heart rate lowered after just a few weeks

Not really. Its definitely easier if you're a bigger guy unless you're so fat it fucks your deadlift but its not something most people - fat or otherwise - get without effort.

SS + body weight movements like pull ups and dips. Otherwise Candito's Linear Progression program. Both SS and SL will get you results.

Just got some badass healthcare at my new job.

I am 26 and hear these testosterone commercials on the radio all the time. I feel like I have low t, if I test low are they just gonna give me some medical grain test-e or what

I have not been lifting very long and am still pretty fat. Should I look into this or is it a scam

its just as easy not fat, if not easier

>I feel like I have low t

congrats, you fell for the electric jew. Unless you're like 50, don't worry about low testosterone.

what I started doing this past week is 20 min on the stationery bike on lift days, fairly intense keeping my heartrate about 150 and then 30 min on my off days, except Sunday where I probably won't do shit

Should I be going for longer duration at less intensity? I hate doing cardio, would rather do 30 more intense minutes than 50 light minutes

How do I deal with porn addiction? I feel the need to fap at least 3 times a day and it's really fucking distracting bc I can't get shit done unless I get my fix first. What do?

That's what I figured, seemed to good to be true so I asked the placed where memes were born to learn whether it was a meme or not

Good bodyweight routines??

how long did you do cardio and BW stuff before feb?

nice progress for 3 months user

I'm very low blood sugar and normally chew on prices of candy or gum. Any other sources of sugar I can use without fucking up my gains?

I normally have 4 jolly ranchers or a small sucker pre workout.

* pieces

>thinking whey makes gains significantly easier to the point where it matters if someone is "on brotein"
Jesus christ
And calisthenics are fine, dont listen to that guy

So I've been trying to lose weight with a pretty hard diet of 1200 cals a day, lifting and running alternatively every other day.
Went from 110kg in November to 85kg as we speak, so that's pretty good.
My diet has good proteins and I lift consistently...
...but my main concern comes from how little I progress.
After all this time (started dieting around January and lifting mid February) I am still struggling doing more than 2 push ups in a row, not a single real pull up yet, I goblet squat at 18 kg, barely increased my DB OHP by 4 kg in two months...

I know I've been on a hard diet, I also couldn't lift during the whole month of march because of some jaw surgery, but still. I feel like I'm wasting my time..

My muscles do seem kinda bigger though, but it's really strength that I'm looking for... so should I be worried or not?

Please respond. ;_;

whatever you choose make sure you stick to it. how much time you have and how much time you want to spend in the gym weekly will narrow down which programs you can do.

personally i did a month and half of SS then started ICF because SS felt too boring. doing SS will make your workouts pretty short (40 mins or less). ICF takes about 70-80 minutes depending on how much time you spend waiting for a squat rack.

also make sure you stretch regularly or else you will delay your progress in the long run due to shitty injuries phraktured.net/starting-stretching.html
