Ive been training calisthenics for a year. I'm worried I lack the explosive energy I could get from weightlifting. To compensate, I have a pool that I'll bob around in the deep end motionless until one second, I'll thrash around violently. Then pause, rest, and go again. Is this beneficial? It feels good and I can't think of another way to train explosively without heavy lifting
Does anybody know of any tasty, high protein, low carb food that's easy to prepare? So far I've just been eating hot dogs.
Gabriel Rogers
tuna and mayonnaise on lettuce

So what's the verdict on knees passing toes on squat? Is it bad to do that?
Jacob Lewis
Get some hamburger meat, fry it up in a pan with olive oil, when it's nearly done throw on some shredded cheese of your choice. Delicious.
Luke Turner
Sorry OP
Just elaborate on that trashing around
Wyatt Wilson
I bob around in the middle of the pool and then just go berserk for a couple seconds, trying to use every muscle in my body with the water as a resistance.
I think I've made some modest gains from it
Noah Brown
So give me an example of what kind of movements you do
Wyatt Sanders
Not at all, I squat in weightlifting shoes, no knee pain since running in 10th grade. my brother (half) has godly squat levers and he regularly goes a couple inches past youtube.com/watch?v=iBHc323QwFE
Christian Torres
Why won't MFP let me eat fewer than 1500 calories? Starvation mode is bunk yeah?

So can I drink coffee during intermittent fasting or not? I've heard conflicting opinions. I do 16:8, with my first meal at ~1pm. Can I drink coffee when i wake up at 730, or must I wait till 1pm?
Alexander King
Need some criticism on my routine:
A: Full body 3 times a week
Squat 4x10 Deadlift 3x8 (I get tired on these) Bench 4x10 OHP 4x10 Bent over Rows 4x10 Dumbell Shrugs 4x12-15 Bicep Curls 4x10 Tricep Rope Pulldown 4x10-12
I've been lifting for about 3 months, Im training for aesthetics. Is the routine promising? I've been getting decent gains off of it I think, I can post progress pics if interested.
yes, as long as its only coffee without sugar or milk
squat, deadlift and rows on the same day, 3x a week? thats a bit intensive
also you should up your deadlift strength or fix your form, theres no way you're only pulling 135, even for 8 reps
Blake Martin
I've been bulking for about a year, and now my abs aren't very defined. 6'0 170lbs Should I keep bulking or start to cut?
Ethan Cruz
Should I start a cycle of SARMS? Picture is after 3 years of lifting, the first of which was dedicated, then like 5 times a month, and now back to dedicated diet, supplements and 4 days a week in the gym. Was 165 before, am 200 now. Bench max is 255×3, squat is 405×3 (can't ATF due to acl reconstruction and reinjury, just to 90°, diddly is 385X5, strict OHP is 145×5
Cooper James
you retards need to stop making your own routines
Jackson Jackson
I figured I should get the most of my noob gainz.
As for my deadlifts, I honestly get super tired after a set. Not so much that I cant lift more, I certainly can, I just get exhausted throughout the set.
Grayson Foster
dont really know whats wrong with it desu. It's basically ICF with more volume. Which is basically stronglifts and SS.
Brody Ortiz
I'm painfully sore two days after lifting, is this slow recovery most likely down to poor sleep/lack of rest or am I doing too much though it feels manageable at the time?
Eli Russell
sometimes you don't think it be like that but it do. DOMS (delayed onset muscle soreness). I'm actually better the first day after leg day but 48 hours after and it's bad, next day is comparable to the prior, then I'm back to baseline. Pain=gains within reason
Brody King
Black coffee is fine
Helps enormously in staving off hunger too
Owen Young
post pics so we know what to tell you
IMO sarms is too iffy to tell if they're worth it or not, better to just use actual juice
also mirin
maybe try dropping the volume on squat+row/deadlifts on alternating days
so like
Week 1
3x8 Squats 2x5 Deadlifts 3x8 rows
Week 2 2x6 Squats 3x8 deadlifts 2x6 rows
Bentley Allen
OP that's still just going to be cardio/calisthenics tier exercise and it sounds too irregular to yield predictable gains. It's basically just full body water treading, which is low resistance cardio.
If you want strength, train with weights.
Ian Anderson
So I've decided to post some progress pics to maybe help whoever else sees this.
This is me December 12, 2016 before I started lifting (mostly did body weight work)
I was (probably still am super fat)

Threw up again after my workout. How do I stop this I want to die
Jack Gray
Don't eat so soon before your workout or lower the intensity
Tyler Thomas
whats the best cutting agent thats legal
Connor Howard
depends on your country/state, but EC stack
could also use yohimbine, not sure about the legal purview of it though
Elijah Diaz
I actually second what op is saying. Pls answer
Ayden Morgan
Vanity accessory work for SL reccomendations?
Michael Hernandez
Is pic related a good routine? Based it on ICF 5x5.
just use ICF look at that user's progress pics. Dude's only been lifting for 3 months. Albeit he's running a much more intensive modification of ICF.
Cooper Perez
Would I do those every work out? or half with A other half with B?
Michael Turner
Beginner here. 2 months into lifting. Attempting a max squat of 250. Originally planned to do one rep but the first felt really good so I went for another one.
How's my form?
Stats: >Age: 18 >Height: 5'8" >Weight: 160 lbs
Carson Wilson
Can I pin 600mg test e once a week?
Nathaniel Hughes
Looks like your hitting depth just try not to go down so fast. It looks like your trying to slingshot it up which is causing you to pause and give a second effort in your reps.
Grayson Nelson
If you can dream it, you can do it
Michael Myers
>It looks like your trying to slingshot it up which is causing you to pause and give a second effort in your reps.
Thanks for pointing it out, hadn't noticed. So just control the reps more? I think I can manage that.
Jackson King
How much to you estimate an 1.5 hour session of SS to be, roughly?
Around 200-300 calories?
Eli Young
What exactly is the difference between the warrior diet and IF? Just that you eat 4 hours less?
Which is better? I am a fattie and cutting atm with 1,6k kcals a day, weighing 121 kg, doing Cto5K and GSLP and IF.
Gabriel Moore
Dyel here I just did leg day and I could only squat 145 with good form but when I moved on to my isolations on machines I could leg curl almost that much for sets of 12 and full rom and do 250 on the laying leg press full rom for the same amount of sets. My isolations are progressing along but my squats basically stalled at lmao1pl8.
So if my isolations are so decent why would my compounds be so ass? Is it probably a form thing?
Nathan Taylor
Who is this semen demon?
Elijah Rodriguez
what the fuck does SS mean?
>inb4 Schutzstaffel
Sebastian Taylor
why bother posting if you're just going to be a retard about it
Justin Martin
look at the first post
most likely form, yes
the thing about machines is that they take away the stability portion of the movement, so you can focus more of your muscles on moving the weight
try a deload session and then increase your squat further
Jaxon Garcia
Starting Strength. A routine made by a man for functional strength; not so much for aesthetics. Try ICF if you want to look good.
Jordan Morales
pls respond
Anthony Barnes
it stands for read the fucking sticky you dumbass
Kayden Cooper
I don't know. Maybe it stands for super set? Nah no way it could mean super set in a gym board.
Thomas Rodriguez
what the fuck is a super set?

Thanks, and I'll also start wearing a belt too because I also think my core is weak even though it's a meme at low weights.

Kevin Watson
I've been progressing my lat pulldowns since I can't do pullups. My gym also has an assisted pull-up/chinup machine, should I just do those instead, or keep building on lat pulldowns until I can do a regular pullup?
Eli Sanders
I want to include LISS and HIIT in my cardio routine, preferably on different days. Is 1 day HIIT 2 day LISS a week good? 1 day of each and 1 of something in between? I have no clue.
I read that too much HIIT is bad for a cardiolet so I can't imagine doing it every cardio day is going to be good.
Jaxson Allen
theres nothing in the sticky about supersets
Nolan Thomas
Does the 8 hours arms workout actually have any real benefits? It sounds like a meme to me.
Dylan Gonzalez
Why is this preferable to SS or GSLP when on a cut?
Daniel Rivera

anyone have knee sleeves recommendations for around $40. I was looking at the nordic lifting or hookgrip 7mm

So I am a recovering fatass (5'11" 230lbs) and did leg day with my fit friend. We hit legs Saturday and yesterday I had some pretty good soreness but today has been horrendous (especially this evening)
My quads and hammies are on fire and after icing them on the couch for an hour I was barely able to get off the couch.
WTF do I do I have to work tomorrow
Jonathan Perez
How important is proper form? will my muscles end up looking weird if my form is off?
Nolan Gutierrez
Leg press is moving weight at an angle. Depending on the angle, you could be effectively moving 40-60% of the total you have loaded.
So your numbers aren't all that far out.
Benjamin Robinson
dont worry, the pain will go in 2-3 days. enjoy it! that only happen at the beginning
Noah Cook
Why should I take yohimbe, clen, or t3?
Nicholas Russell
good form is to avoid snap city
Robert Robinson
so if my arms are shaking and my shoulders are out of proper place I won't look weird but might fuck up my joints?
Isaiah Lewis
I've been cutting for 3 months now, and I've lost 10 lbs. and 2.7% bodyfat. Started at 193, am now 183.
How is this for a cut? Too much muscle loss? Or not bad?
Carter Young
where did you start
Joshua Myers
12.7% down to 9.9%. I use one of the handheld BIA, which I'm sure biased on the low end. Calipers say I'm now about 14%. Only got calipers part way through the cut, so I don't have a start point for that.
I take measurements every morning.

Are there any cutting agents worth a damn that I can get in Australia? It's like banning fun shit is our country's national mandate.
