Have you taken the nolats pill yet?
>>76676454Fall for the pull ups and chin ups build big biceps meme
>>76676454Wide grip pullups and other wide grip movements with emphasize on nothing else
>>76675405Thank you for the solid advice with visual examples. I just had one follow up question, if I may -- what about lats? I feel like developing those would really help complete the look.
U do not need to train lats, u need to train lat spread, the supposed no lat physiques ALL have disproortoonally big lats, it's just their posture that's shit. >How do u knows hooman?Simple bot, u cant do retardo pressing without blowing up lats, just like u can't do any squatting without overgrowing adductors. That's why i don't any of that nonsense xD
>>76675405If you think these people have no developed lats you're obviously dyel.The flexed lats look is not how someone with developed lats looks all the time.
>brew huge mug of coffee>drink it>nothing>make some watery small instant espresso from those capsule machine things>drink it>jizz 5 times, spend the entire day with a drumming heart, lungs on fire, hands scalding redHow do people need pretrainer when shit like this exists, good god
>>76676322Pussy ass nigga
>>76676328Im certain caffeine runs your engine faster at the cost of long term burn out.
>>76676342more like short term burn out, periodically throughout the daybut who cares since you're doing literally nothing important 90% of the time anyways
>>76676113Just take caffeine in tablets if you want a predictable effect
>>76676113who the hell calls it pretrainer is the real question here. it does have a nice ring to it tho
QUESTIONS THAT DON'T DESERVE THEIR OWN THREAD THREAD
>>76675848Delegate small tasks to other people if they have that capacity. Use your support system if you have one. See if your boss is willing to work with you and keep organized or take something off your plate in the short term. If your boss is worth two shits as a manager then he should help you bridge the gap as needed
i dont have any machines. do i just do more squats in place of leg press sets? thte routine im following already has stndard bb squat. or should i do lunges with dumbells instead of peg press sets?
Is getting down to 10% body fat even worth it? Seems like it’d be nice to do once just to see what it’s like, but not worth maintaining. You would be only a few pounds from losing it at all times. The self denial would be indefinite.I ask because I’m at 12% and know I could be beginning a lean bulk right now, but I’m curious what I’d look like at 10%.
>>76675114>women ask all the time how to get laid by chadYwnbawNo woman in existence had ever written a sentence like this
I want to progress in calisthenics. Do handstands, back and front levers and the rest. My pullup maxes are 19 normal, weighted pullups 10x45 and 10x45 dips
Let’s say you had 50 pounds to lose?
>>76676547when I was underweight the difference between bone-pressed measurements and non-bone-pressed measurement was about half an inch. so take your bone-pressed measurement and subtract half an inch, then subtract your current non-bone-pressed measurement from that and you'll have calculated how much visual "growth" you can hope to gain.by bone pressed I mean push the measuring tape or ruler into your groin as much as you can, until it's stopped by bone. for non-bone-pressed, you don't push it into your body at all.
>>76676691100lbs from very skinny doesn't take 2.5 inches offTry 1.5 max or less
>>76676691Not sure about my measurements but i also lost a big chunk at my worst size compared to when i was a twink maxxed teen. Thats probably why most chud looking white trannies posted on /gif/ have those fucking humongous pipes when they lift their dresses or whatever.
>>76676547I lost 50lbs and I think it added half an inch or maybe a full inch. It's either the extra blood or the illusion because my legs are smaller.
>>76676742I've gained 40 lbs of mostly lean mass and lost an inch from when I was skelly. That first little bit of pelvic fat robs you.
How to fight against this body posture?
>>76676915sleep on floor
>>76676915dont be a kike

Cholesterol is terrible for you.
What is it with peoples obsession of wanting to avoid a quick death from a heart attack... so they take meds that will ensure they end up dying of a painful slow cancer or dementia?
get on repatha
>>76676042Die in my 50s, or live to enjoy 30-35 more good years before dementia claims me... Hmmm...Painful heart attack when I'm still young enough to enjoy life...Living long enough to enjoy retirement before a gentle twilight of watching TV and taking naps...I just can't decide.

I take 10mg of lipitor and it lowered my LDL and overall cholesterol by 50%. I'm never going to stop eating red meat and have familial hypercholesterolemia. It works and costs almost nothing.My dad had a heart attack in Vegas at 60 with massive heart failure and was down to 1% heart function. He has never exercised and eats frozen dinners every day and is 77 now and fine. Takes a dozen medications with no side effects lol. One of his brothers dropped at 54 having never gone to a doctor past 14 and his other brother stroked out at 62 and has been all retarded for twenty years. Drugs are incredible
So about 2 years ago, I was fat and looked like shit. I did a 180 and started working out, dress better and have better hair, etc. Before no girl would ever look at me in public and was basically invisible. Lately I've been in weird or awkward situations and I don't know how to properly act. I don't even think I'm that good looking so my social anxiety is still there.Examples:>Guys with girlfriends try to "shield" their vision from looking at me or put an arm around her and pull her closer when I walk by.>When working out, there are like 5 benches next to each other empty, and they always pick the one next to me even when there are empty ones.>I've noticed other guys in the weight room staring at me, not in a curious way, but more like a size-up or a challengeIt's like I've gone from being invisible to being seen as some kind of competition. I'm not used to this and it makes me feel just as awkward as before, just for a different reason.Anyone else deal with this shit after getting in shape?
I get mired a lot and I mean like a LOT, but I realized it’s just meaningless if you don’t act on it. Like what do you gain after the initial 20mins of confidence after the mire?

>>76673476yeah it's normal. some guy literally gave me the evil eye for simply talking to his girl. that has never happened before. nowadays I'm more careful because I'm not into cheating.

>>76672574I never heard of this place, but you should see Cabela's in the USA. All big outdoorsmen and Great White Hunters.It makes Walmart look like Weight Watchers.
>>76675521yes please>>76676490probably just an ESL moment on my part but I'll try to explain, you know some shoes have those rounded soles so that they do this rocking motion when you walk that supposedly helps you turn a downward force into forwards momentum, but personally I find it annoying. It's especially common in Hoka shoes. I assumed that's what Merrel meant with the description of their FloatPro technology but looking at those linked shoes again I'm not so sure, maybe they rock a bit but more subtly than other models.Pic related is an exaggerated example, after a quick search they are indeed called "rocking shoes" (like rocking chair, should be obvious but the term didn't occur to me yesterday)

Why is Alex's audience like 99% ethnic gymcels, where as other fitness YouTubers like David Laid have a 50/50 audience of normie guys and normie girls and why hasn't Alex been able to break out into this mainstream?
>>76672494How would you even know these things? Are you spending your free time going through each of their followers individually?
>>76672494>why hasn't Alex been able to break out into this mainstream?Same reason that roided bodybuilding shows gigamog Natural bodybuilding shows, because he's natty.
>>76672494FFS, I dreamt ln that a council estate (UK social housing) had pictures up commemorating from workingclass comedies such as only fools, and older films like treasure island, and there was a section about Lemmy but his name was 'David Laid ' and I woke up trying to remember who the fuck that is.
>>76672494Because he talks like a sassy black gay

What is the best lifting program of all time
make you own based on the effective ranges of reps/sets/days and the relationship between intensity and sets per week
The one you keep doing :)
>>76676504Id start by doing way too much to see what you can handle before underprogramming say push and having well enough volume on pull and legs then having small arms and delts after doing the above.
>>76676619Why is this always assumed? Maybe the dude is doing a slumdog 80s gymteacher level program and wants to be more efficient. Like there are a lot of ex-vets who don't know how to program properly and just do jarhead exercises because the army drills habits into people. Stop having OP's cock up your ass and spewing shit from your mouth, faggot.

>>76675448Lol why? I love Aborted, the disco ball was a Christmas gift from my wife, and yes that's a black sun.
I got this rack and I really regret not getting a functional trainer/smith machine instead. I ended up using it as a DIY functional trainer a lot more than as a squat rack lol.
>>76675789sell it and get a FT
i finally got rid of my bench and barbells and replaced them with a functional setup.
Do you ever miss your scheduled gym days? Or do you always show up?
>>76676234I don't see any kids in the pic so its entirely his fault for staying
>>76676930the kid is on the couch
>>76676482>muh disciplineYou are literally 100% wrong and ass backwards.I would go so far as to say that discipline is not even a useful concept to have in your brain. Maybe you do have to torture yourself to become mr. Olympia. But you, certainly don’t need to treat yourself so cruelly to bench 2 plate or whatever goal you have.
>>76675811What does the sentence in the pic mean? It’s just a bunch of random words together?
>>76675811I try to get there. If I miss it or can't I'll just tack it onto the next workout as HIT style sets. My general priority is frequency>intensity of effort># of sets. If I can get any amount of work in before the next one it's better than nothing but it's not going to break my stride if I have to improvise or put it off a day.

>>76670639Humanoids have been using fire to cook food since before we were human. We evolved alongside out ability to prepare and alter our food for better digestion. Cooking food isn't just something you CAN do, it's arguably the most human thing TO do. It's what separates us from the animals, but if you want to live like an animal and be beholden to whatever raw food nature dumps in front of you, go right ahead. I'll continue cooking my food and getting superior nutrition from it.
>>76676736The only way to get people out of a stadium isn't to have more people exit it than enter it. You can also just not have anyone go in, or keep the same rate of people going in but increase the rate of people leaving.

I’ve been trying to mix in traditional Chinese medicine in with my fitness routine and I’m looking for advice. I’m primarily focusing on maximizing my yang for gains. So far I’m >Eating yang boosting foods like lamb, beef, and spicy foods like peppers to increase my digestive fire>Wearing auspicious colors like yellow and red at all times, especially when working out>Taking some multivitamins with hot sauce and 5 mg of mercury daily >Improving the feng shui of my workout spaceThe latter is particularly troublesome because none of my local gyms have that so I’m going to have to start building up my home gym. Anyone else have some advice. I want to yang max until I can get to my target weight and physique then I can balance my diet a bit more. Does anyone know the Chinese medicine stance on supplements? Eggs are strictly neutral so I can’t eat egg whites as my primary source of protein.
>>76675414Don't eat too spicy, it's hard on the digestion, which will damage your spleen, which has a direct negative effect on muscles. You can eat spicy sometimes but not all the time. Instead use gently warming foods like stews (also good for spleen). Don't eat too many soups though because the added fluid is again bad for the spleen.Yang foods that are common in the west are lamb, venison, chestnuts, fennel seeds, walnuts and leeks. Chicken and beef are ok. Pork and duck should be avoided because they're more yin.The whole colors and mercury stuff is just superstition.Take care to have you home well-heated and don't wear clothes in which you feel cold. Don't eat raw foods like salads. Don't drink cold beverages.
>>76676820Also don't do internal qigong, but vigorous external qigong.
>>76675439If anything, Anons are much too yin in the first place with all that fapping, asceticism and stoicism shit.
>>76675770Semen retention increases yin, which is why monks do it. Monks prefer to become emotionally stunted and impotent, make it easier to meditate all day.For normal people semen retention is not advised.sxmks
>>76675414make sure each of your internal organs are in balance
