>How do you avoid the rusting situation?
The plates havent rusted much after years outside, if you want you can paint them and/or store them under tarp or something.
For a rack you can coat it but I havent and it seems ok after like 5 years, maybe it will collapse and I will be crushed to death.

Getting groceries this weekend.

>Advice for new runners:
- Build up speed and mileage SLOOOOOWLY (start with 15 minutes, increase mileage at most 10% per week);
- It will feel like you're going slow, you are; don't worry about setting good times for a couple of months;
- If you start to feel pain anywhere, stop and rest;
- Don't try to copy what pros are doing. Do what feels natural; and
- Once you can comfortably roon 6 miles/10km, start thinking about a goal in terms of race distance and time, and look for a training plan for that goal (see below for suggested plans).

i don't think you caught onto my sarcasm, anon. I always make fun of people who talk about junk miles because 100% of the time, they don't know what junk miles are. They always claim it's those slow trots that they always say benefit nothing. It's surprising how many of them are personal trainers.
>>
>>76842273
nta, I'm the original anon you replied too. I think people get so caught up in sportsball or Olympics training that they think exercise is literally: "GO HARD ALL DAY EVERYDAY, IF YOU DON'T BRING 110% YOU'RE A FUCKING LOSER FAGGOT THAT NO ONE WILL LOVE AND YOU'LL DIE ALONE!!!" Kind of hardcore training mentality, when in reality even athletes have "rest" days where they do minimal work and days they know they need to bring their all.
People tend to get confused due to sports journalism (like all journalism) being ass and sensationalizing the crazy shit while just not reporting or glossing over the days where athletes do something easy like yoga or go for a nice walk or something like that.

Will lifting give me a sense of self worth?
5 replies and 1 image omitted. Click here to view.
>>
>>76839694
No. Self worth comes from within. You must search for meaning within yourself, go /out/ into nature and meditate on it. You determine the purpose of your life, and if you are getting closer to achieving your goals then you will feel self worth no matter how harsh the world is. Make yourself into the better person you know you can be, and your worth to others will become more apparent as well, and their appreciation of you will reinforce your self worth.
>>
No but showing appreciation for the effort you put in and the results of said effort will make you feel more whole. Also if you are fat you will see more of your dick.
>>
>>76839694
Probably not really, but some people might stop treating you like you're beneath them, and that helps.
>>
>>76839694
yes, the issue is most people overdo it and burn out or get injured, stick to whatever routine you choose, and no you aren't an expert lifter just choose a simple routine. I am a neet and i get massive urges to just workout all day, yet i show restraint because I know it is a marathon. You want the dopamine receptors to make you feel good, doing some gauntlet workout that makes you bedridden the rest of the day isn't the answer.

I have never done incline bench press before but my new routine has it, should I try to lift the same amount of weight as I do for regular bench press or do I lift less heavily? And if so how much should I cut it by?

Cut it by 50% and work your way up.

What’s the difference? Do the top expensive ones keep blacks and browns out and have hot girls or something?

I absolutely loathe that night club dark neon lighting aesthetic all the chain clubs seem to be switching to now.

There wasn't one for some reason.
When I do dumbbell flies, I get a really bad shoulder impingement at the bottom. I also have rolled shoulders that I'm working on. How can I fix the impingement? My chest is massively underdeveloped and needs the help.

quit my workout 2 years ago due to injury and other occupations
currently with a budget, my only choice of workout is pushups with a backpack, squats with weights and etc

Tell me more. To my untrained eye, her legs look big for how lean she is. Her adductors and quads, the rectus femoris and vastus medialis head specifically. Is it possible to avoid hitting the lateral head? She's fucking with her right leg, but does the left leg just look big from the pose and gravity showing off the adductor? Also her calves are small so I doubt she runs.
