How's your sleep anons? I struggle with waking up at 4 am every morning and being unable to go back to sleep. What are you struggling with? What has helped you?
Do you immediately hop on your phone OP?
>>76821683You have to exercise to get tired, then you will fall asleep easily.
>>76821683mostly fine, but laid in bed at 1am last night crying because my mum has cancer and it's not looking good
you should get up and jog for 1 hour to signal to whatever sleep demon haunting you that you are not a bitch
>>76821683Far from optimal, but I generally fall asleep quickly and at a reasonable time. My issue is that it's very light sleep and I wake up a lot. It's mostly just because I need to reposition to a more comfortable position and I fall asleep again immediately. I think because my sleep is so light I tend to sleep a lot longer in total than I should.
I don't get what judges are looking for in bodybuilding
>>76821809is competitor my butt buddy? judge him higheris competitor not my butt buddy? judge him lower
>>76821813But like what makes one better than another?Peak Jay Cutler and Ronnie Coleman look the damn same
>>76821841there's are always differences somewhere, judges score competitors by ranking them that's why they make them pose side by side, on multiple days and rounds, sometimes there are differences in opinion perhaps someone has slightly bigger lats but looks softer and not everyone agrees on what should come first that's why there are multiple judgesyou can look at the scorecards almost all Ronnie vs Jay duels were unanimous, maybe in some poses like the front double biceps it's not obvious but look at their back lat spread Ronnie was mogging hardhttps://www.ronavidan.com/results/e-mroly.htm
>>76821809Nothing it's all mental masturbation to make the """"sport"""" look more serious than it isIt goes >Is he symmetrical ? If yes keep going if no disqualified>Is he as lean as possible while as big as possible ? Yes keep going if no disqualified>Did he say anything that made me seethe in the past 6 months ? No keep going if yes disqualified>Did he use his manboobs to give me a dick rub and ass to grind over my senil jewish crotch ? If yes GIVE HIM THE OLYMPIA IMMEDIATELY
>>76821881>is he Iranian? oyvey shut it down give it to the guy with the exact same physique only less conditioned

>low IQ: volume is king>mid IQ: intensity Is king>High IQ: progressive overloadChange my mind
>>76820403Mmm... intetesting, but what do you do mean by work capacity? Can you give an example?
>>76820162>> volume is king - do too much>>intensity Is king - do too hard >>progressive overload - u gotta confuse the muscle, u gotta shock it bullshit
>>76820162It's frequency and progressive overload actually. Each key lift should be done 1-3 times a week, once heavy, low reps, once or twice light higher reps. Supplement with minimal isolation.
>>76820162Everyone who favors intensity can't help using progressive overload because the weight has to make it intense.
Proximity to failure is kingIntensity is the methodVolume is the result.
who is the best fitness influencer and why is it Elliott?
>>76821726I think the best fitness influencer is undiscovered .Probably has like 4 videos on this channel (and it's definitely he) 1 for form/lifts to do, 1 for eating/nutrition, 1 "life advice" (to stay in the gym) and 1 about alcohol.
It's Buck Tow Truck.
lmao even
>>76821468They were already retarded to begin with
>>76820733He will die for his dreams.

>>76819325Kek, first thing I thought
>>76817498Looks like my ugliest ex
>>76821187I see a guy on the weekends at my gym who puts on a little more weight and does less range of motion than this. He walks around to brag between sets too. I wonder how his knees feel
>>76821195>pec tear>still completes the repbased
>>76821783>>pec tear>>still completes the repfunny, it's like pressing isn't optimal for pectoralis development, it's like u can press without pecs at all lol :D very funny indeed :D >>76818405
want to hit the gym again but my body is still sore from yesterday session
Follow Mentzer’s advice and take the month off
>>76821850go for a walk instead >c-cardio kills gains it a lie :D
>>76821850It will go away once you start training and get warmed up. If you are sore to the point it hurts too much, warm up and use light weight and cut your sets/reps by 30%.
>my body is still soreI bet your neck, obliques and serratus aren't sore, you know what to do
im stepping foot in the gym tomorrow for the first time EVERgenuinely what am I supposed to do
>>76821246Pretty much the exact advice I would give. Would add though he should be sure to hit all the major muscle groups. Gotta get chest, shoulders, upper back, lats, biceps, triceps, quads, and hamstrings. Just warm up with some weight that feels light then do 1 or 2 sets pushed all the way until you hit the limit. With 8 body parts to hit and only a set or two per lift he should be in and out of the gym in like an hour. Full body twice a week should do the trick until he's not a complete noob anymore
>>76821369Bro if that's really the route you wanna go I'd seriously recommend lowering the volume at first or you're gonna get shit on real hard. He's doing like 5 genuine failure sets per muscle. That's too much for you starting out and you're gonna fuck yourself up. Try with just 1 set of 1 lift per body part to start. Add more as you go with more lifts that hit the same muscle in different ways until you can do Blood and Guts properly. I'm telling you dude if you jump immediately in to training that hard when you have zero experience you're gonna get fucked
>>76821246>>76821333>>76821370wowactually good posts on /fit/thank you!
>>76821375my main issue is following a routine and working out with intentjust standing there awkwardly shuffling from machine to machine is the last thing I need
>>76821121Just main bench every/every other workout thank me later

What is the best fitness tracker I can get for the lowest cost that is compatible with pic related? I learned my work offers discounts on insurance if we sync a fitness tracker. Since I'm unfamiliar with these, what is the best bang for the buck with said pic in mind?Not sure if a phone would work for this, but I have a Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra.
>>76820158>Samsung Galaxy S25 UltraApple Health
Lmao gay. What's the discount, $200 off your gay little premium a year?Fuck thar data mining shit scam
>>76820349More like $1800.
>>76820158On android, pixel watches are the most accurate HR sensors you can get on your wristSo I'd get thatBonus point it looks sick IMO
>>76820158-mirror-how much you lift, how fast you go, etc.
Would a gym be successful if it was marketed as a gym where cougars would work out (older milfs) to get fucked and hook up? I called it COUGARS FITNESS. You woipd be able to work out here as a man but see hot milfs who signed up there for the secondary purpose of getting fucked down.
>>76821591You would have to set things up to attract the right clientele without being so explicit. Only actual prostitutes would go to Cougars.
>>76821599Maybe it would look somewhat upscale to attract milfs with single dating night events on fridays and saturdays there would also be prominent cougar themed imagery everywhere also something like a cougar yelling sound when someone does something at the gym they aren’t supposed to.
>>76821591Cougars go after young pretty bois to tickle their incestual monkey brain.
You mean like Equinox, except they go there to get fucked by richfags which is what they really want
Trying to get in better shape what is a good zone to be in and how long? I’m doing 20-30 minute workouts right now at abour 135-145 BPM not sure if this is effective or not. should I go longer and lower BPM? Or go longer at 140 BPM? I feel like if I do 160 BPM I will need to stop frequently enough that it would be more like HIIT at this point until I get in better shape. I have strength and muscle but just don’t feel well and get winded easier than I used to so I need to get back in shape. I’m sure if I wing it it would work either way but wanted to know Whats more effective over the course of a month for faster immediate health benefits (will stick with it long term)
180-agecall it zone 2, call it fat max heart rate, call it walking (what it is unless you're an athlete)10k steps is the normie recommendation but also the highest, the Born To Walk guy says 1 hour+, Stan Efferding says 1 hour I think, 15 mins right after meals, he has an interesting theory about what that does to glucose that's supposedly amazing and le science based (I'm not gonna do it so I haven't cared to check his references), for even more serious beginners and off-season cyclists doing base training Joe Friel recommends a pyramid structure where most volume is done at low intensity 30-90 min a day every day
