Which professional wrestler would have made the best body builder?
>>76945937Ultimate warrior
>>76945937Well none of them really have the right kind of frame or structure to make it far in bodybuilding. Too blocky, cores too thick - great for wrestling and being functionally strong and able to lift a bigass dude in the air, take impacts etc, but no good for the ideal bodybuilder physiqueKerry Von Erich probably has the best structure though, best potential if he built up the legs more and cut
>be Big Poppa Pump>be a genetic freak>normally if a pro wrestler becomes a bodybuilder you got a 50/50 chance of success>but I’m not normal>add Scott Steiner to the equation>your odds of greatness drastic go up>other bodybuilders train for symmetry>I train to intimidate gravity>other wrestlers lift for show>I lift like every rep owes me money>neck so thick math stops working>veins got veins>cardio fears me>step on bodybuilding stage>judges don’t ask “is he conditioned?”Comment too long.

>>76945937Triple H was pretty huge back in 2000.
Nathan Jones would have been dimes if he wasn’t retarded and quit wrestling
>fixes you
>>76947770No you're both wrong and retarded. Which muscles do they not hit? Glutes like he said? Completely wrong
>>76948909No they do hit glutes and very hard that wasn't the point tho. You're using more weight and energy than any other lifts and it's not even close. That's also the problem.
>>76945516>>76945786Are you guys editing his butt to look extra juicy when he leans forward?
Hip thrusts are optimal for gloots.
>>76945516Love me my romanian deadies. Just hit 4pl8x5 today

>>76944533I only have a pullup bar, dips and dumbells. I also have a better physique than 90% of fit. You'll be fine.
Today's the day that we celebrate Jesus's birthday, have a wonderful Christmas, eat good stuff, spend time with your love ones and be in good spirits
So general consensus seems to be that tricep kickbacks aren't good. So what if I bent my hips all the way down, so my head is upside down, and do them like that? No matter what anyone says I'm going to at least give it a try, but I'm wondering why this mechanically wouldn't work.
my chest hurts
>>76949754It's the weakness leaving your body, do 8 more reps
>>76949754quick do 15 burpees

>>76949790It's an obvious esl can counter
>>76948926This. She celebrates 8 dollar store Christmasses instead of a real one.
I will be fat my whole life..I have lost the war
>>76949714as a fat indian at least you're somewhat different compared to the billion skinny ones
>>76949722>neck hangs to failureor just flat bench
>>76949738sounds like a planheavy flat bench
>>76949387damn, sucks to be u I guess
>>76949714Damn, rough. Consider moving to India, you’re bound to be popular there and it’s for the best.

What am I missing out if I use salt without iodide?
>>76948270Based microplastic enjoyer
I don’t eat iodized table salt at all anymore and haven’t for years. Only kosher baby
what went wrong???
>>76949606Bro how did that happen? Like how could you be drinking and get behind the wheel (yoke) of a plane? I'm not asking to give you a hard time, I'm genuinely curious about how you got to that point.
>>76949017He got addicted to hardcore street drugs and lost his mind. Unfortunately a lot of these fitness dudes end up going down this route because they get into the clubbing/party 24/7 scene and its a nasty hole to fall into.
>>76949606Why do we self destruct when we get into the life we thought we wanted
>>76949020Too many divine protein shakes
>>76949626It's rather normal in the business. Even in the flight academy we would get out of class and get hammered (instructors would often join us too). Up at 4.30 am reading notams, planning the flight, etc. at 6 doing pre flight check and chugging energy drinks and power smoking to stay awake. I never had more than two mugs during that time, but you get confident and "since nothing happened before..". Many of my classmates fly commercial in Lufthansa or other big ones and are raging alcoholics. Germans were by far the hardest drinkers.>>76949662Yeah I dunno. Low self esteem maybe? That we are not worthy of happiness and love? I do know that I feel so much shame I can't stand mirrors/seeing myself.

Honestly dude, it sounds like you spent 10 years retard-strength maxing, hit your limit, then gassed out and found a different avenue to prgoress. This doesn’t make machines better, it makes you worse.
>>76949474>reads anon's story about progress>criticizes effective workoutAverage /fit/ post
>>76949025Happened to me too bro.
>>76949025sure as hell it wasn't your strength or free weight making you fat it was your diet
>>76949567Free weight progressive overload is a killer on the cns and spikes hunger like a bitch and you need tons of calories for energy to actually make progress Spamming machines for a pump is easy on the cns and therefore doesn’t spike hunger so under eating to get ripped is easy as fuck So yeah indirectly obsessing over free weight strength progression as a training style will make you fat by indirect cause and effect
Is Pepe's progress natty? What was the routine?

>>76948440Most fat loss is done in the kitchenAlso just fucking start pinning something like sema, tirz or reta and you will lose fat
>>76949262fat fat fat fat fat fat fat fat
>>76948607Hello monke. Everyday I wish you were real
>>76948440Do Tabata protocol 3 times a week and bike for an hour at moderate intensity every day. After a month of this, start training real sprints. In 4 months your cardio will be so good it won’t matter you’re a fat fuck. If anyone calls you fat just mow them down with your incredible sprinting abilities. You’re a super athlete Anon.
>>76948440i thought this was fit your telling me here re niggers on this site that are not only sedentary, but are extremely obese? Like seriously dude that is fucking disgustting kys and rid anyone you love of dealing with you
How do I strengthen my deep core to fix my flared ribs?
>deep corecan you stop with the memesjust train your fucking core it's not rocket science jesus christ
>be impressionable kid>watching Olympic swimming >mom comments on a swimmer noticeably breathing through his chest>"wow that's a good idea," she says unironically>i start consciously doing it for some reason>fast forward to todaycan i sue her?
>>76948893stomach vacuumsit trains the transverse abdominis
>>76948893>flared ribsFlared ribs are a neurological problem. You learn to move certain ways and you stuck in postures and movement patterns because of it. You fix it by seeing a PT and paying him to train you address the systemic problem with a personalized approach. >>76948902>breathing through his chestBreathing through expansion of the ribcage is normal. BTW, the guy in your pic has a wide ISA. They have a tendency to breath through the belly, hyper-extend the spine, and to keep their ribcage in external rotation contributing towards rib flare. Yes. Ribflare is just a symptom of a postural problem and fixing it is done by teaching you to move and stand differently. No. Grinding away at situps or some other ab exercises won't fix the problem.
I pay $300 a month so I can avoid trashy poor people behavior when I work out.
>>76943893you are literally the one spreading the foot fungus
>>76942733equinox isn't even a gym, it's just a chain of gay hookup spots
>>76947887>equinoxNot surprised they don’t hassle you bc it’s one of their differentiators—screwing you like other gyms would be gauche, ie not what a gym catering to the “rich” would be expected to do. >Gold’s GymGolds and most of the other big chains have always screwed their customers on cancellations, fees, etc, and it will only get worse since now most of them are owned by private equity, or PE groups are the major franchisees. And that click-to-cancel rule the ftc was going to implement got nixed by Trump admin. equinox is probably not going to build one in my city any time soon bc we’re not yet trendy enough, if that makes sense.>private gymsDefinitely more than there were a decade ago, but they’re still pretty rare ime. And it depends on what niche you’re targeting. There are still lots of CrossFit boxes and some grimy powerlifting dungeons, but I think my gym may be the only one in the area targeting serious lifters with a high-end experience.
