W shoulder gains or am I coping? Started with 20's now on 25's
>>77404610You think I'm foolin' boy?
>>77404535You will make progress and not bad. Get a tan. It helps show off a little more definition. >Started with 20's now on 25'sWhy not try 30's?
>>77406479I see. I appreciate the advice very much thank you. I will consider it. Also regarding the weight I just feel it would be better personally to just overload 5 at a time. But I may jumping up 10 next rotation.
i dont have stretch marks and im a decent bencher (350 lb bench)
>>77409144Could just be genetics at the end of the day. Good on you though, keep up the good work as will I.
Can any seasoned gym bros confirm pic rel?
>>77406344There's nothing wrong with this just gays make it seem worse than it is. Women actually like men who have the envy and respect of other men. Lone wolf shit is an incel fantasy.
>>77406344The way women show interest is by acting nervous & avoiding eye contact.
>>77407908I must be REALLY popular!
I don't care what anyone says, if you post a gym selfie you might as well just get grindr. No women are schlicking to those pics, it's all gay men polishing their pipes
>>77406827>>77406933If they catch you staring, remember what to do.
I'm just not 'myself' if I'm not jacked. I lack the natural swagger, assertiveness, and sense of self-worth.The years spent being a skelly and not going to the gym seem utterly wasted to me.

skateboard squats
So I was doing leg press with 5 plates on each side, and i feel like my body is being crushed by it, and im straining, my face is going all red because im being crushed, im making all kinds of retarded faces because it feels very strenuous Then after me this PETITE girl, shorter than me, skinny, gets on it, does the same weight, and shows zero signs of straining under it, just doing it like its nothing, her facial expression is blank, doesnt look like shes trying
>>77408937>leg pressLinear?>5 plates on each sideIs that supposed to be a lot?
>>77408937leg press is the easiest machine to cheat plus the goal is how much you lift, the goal is to get activation in your legs if you can achieve that even with 1 plate, youre winning
>>77409034is *not how much yo can lift
>>77408937why don't you squat with a barbell pussy
>>77409163no thanks im not an egolifter who wants to snap their spine
If I buy 20 lb dumbbells can I do good lifting with just that?I'm poor
>>77404678Not really, but you can get a job and get a gym membership.
>>77404678You can't really do progressive overload with a single pair of dumbellsIf you're a poor go buy a pull up bar, rings, and you'll be set for at least 2 years
>>77404678At least get adjustable ones that take standard plates. I started my home gym with yes4all 52.5lb dumbbells and now have enough 10lb plates to load them to 125lbs. You can do a lot with an adjustable bench, dumbbells, and a dip/pullup tower.
no. sell your belongings (and yourself) to get more equipment
>>77404678>20 lb dumbbellsLook, OP... it's better than nothing, especially if you're just starting out, but you'll max out quickly on just 20 lbs.
From 23 y.o to 26 y.o.What routine and diet could I do to loose weight and gain muscle as much as him?
>>77405030>literally on steroids>not importantHow did "he" do it? Exercise, diet and steroids. That's it.

How much do you guys eat per day and what foods? I find that I pretty much can only eat meat if I want to reach my macros while losing weight.
>>77406535Meat, coffee, various non-starchy vegetables, some greens mostly as condiments or as vehicle for other foodsWhen not cutting just that plus starchy vegetables, rice, noodles, usually less salads and lettuce wraps because it's just wasted money if you're not fighting hunger with it
>>77406535probably because your deficit is ridiculous, anorexia-chan
>>77406535Eggs, miso soup with tofu and bok choi, black coffee, oatmeal with chia seeds, plain Greek yogurt, sweet potatoes, beef stew, dried dates.
chicken or ground beef and rice one day some other slop the other days

Do you still remember what got you into weightlifting? For me it was seeing Jay Cutler on the 2005 Muscle and Fitness magazine
>>77399100back in like, 2005 I rented Pumping Iron one day and was in awe and wanted to be big like Arnie and Lou Ferrigno. For my 17th birthday my dad bought me a dumbbell set, ez bar and plates.
>>77407798this has never happened.
>>77408745It absolutely has happened, there are countless stories of ladies who have detransitioned who say some version of that happened.
>>77399100Is that a real cover or just AI slop content from X?

How is this routine, lifting each 5 days?Deadlift one heavy set of 6 or more reps, adding 5 kg when I can do 10 repsSame with strict press but adding 2.5 kg when 10 reps is reachedThen leg press high reps 5 setsDips and pullups 5 setsSo it's like this each 5 days:Deadlift 1 x 6+Strict Press 1 x 6 +Leg Press 5 x 10+Dips 5 setsPullups 5 setsI think I may just do it once per week instead of every 5 days, I will see how it goes. Reason I don't squat is because of my femur length makes it a shitty exercise for meTrying to reach a 260 kg deadlift and 90 kg strict press this year. My current best lifts are 240 kg deadlift and 80 kg strict press, but I probably have the strength for 250 kg deadlift at the moment, I'm just doing reps for now to build more strength.
>>77408928I'd probably just do 2x/week:A>Deadlift>Barbell Row>Leg PressB>Strict Press>Dumbbell Bench>Weighted Chin Up
>>77409001My routine seems to be over 9000. Confirmed by god. Yippee
>>77409002That seems good as wellOnly thing is I can't do any more barbell rows after a difficult set of deadlifts
>>77409002>row after deadlift DumbIt should be like thisSquat Bench RowDeadlift OhpChinupThis routine has 1 leg movement 1 push and 1 pull
>>77409007>>77409080I can handle it just fine, it makes perfect sense to pair the hinges together in the same day. Why can't you do them on the same day? Rows will need a lot less weight than deadlift.

wheres the fitness?
Recommend me a decent cheap pullup bar + dip station for $100 or less. Doesn't have to work miracles I just need something to hold me over until I can get a solid home gym going.
>>77406475>hold me overA power tower like picrel + dip belt + plates (which you'd buy for the gym anyway) handles almost all your upper body needs>weighted pull-ups>weighted chin-ups>weighted dips>deadhangs>leg raises>dragon flags>lateral raises (plates)Invest in a good power tower ($200 not a wobbly $100 shit one), and then add a simple squat rack later and it's full home gym
>>77406475No. I don't.
>>77406467Do you have anywhere that you can bolt into a wall or ceiling? Picrel is pretty much my entire home gym, mounted inside a cupboard. Rings can keep you going for a really long time, and you can even just hang them from a tree if you have nowhere else.
>>77406467Check local 2nd hand sites, always check for used shit before buying new because people are always trying to get rid of gym equipment.

The natty limit for 99.9% of men is a LOT lower than you've been told. You will most likely never "look like you work out" unless you have top 0.1% genetics or roid yourself half to death. The people you see online or irl who "look like they work out" are all on gear.Picrel is about the natty limit for the vast majority of men. Maybe a bit bigger if you're a genetic freak.

Holy shit when will manlets LEARN?
"I'm Not The One Who's So Far Away When I Feel The Snakebite Enter My Veins" Edition- What Ya Spikin'?- Where Ya Sourcin'?- How's It Workin'?Personally I've been on a ramping-up Wegovy dose from 0.25mg to 1mg over the last three months and it's worked wonders. 20lbs down, IDGAF about food after being a hardcore treatler for years previously, greatly lessened desire to drink, no real desire to impulse spend on dumb shit and minimal negative side effects besides a slightly diminished sex drive.
>>77406435You're on 12mg and still eating? What the fuck anon? You sure that shit is actually real? There's just no way. Are you making an attempt to diet at all or are you drinking mayo and cheese or something? Genuinely don't think this is even possible unless somehow you're a non-responder but I think something is seriously wrong here and I suspect it's bunk reta.Have you tried tirzepatide from an online source that's compounded by a legit compounding pharmacy? Have you looked up your peptide dealer on finnrick? How do you store and reconstitute the solution and how do you store the reconstituted solution and how long does it take for you to use a vial?
>>77406435Sounds like some Chinese mixed saline and diluted your vial. 12mg is fucking insane to not lose weight on. Like literally how are you not throwing up?
>>77406555Checked and for real. On 5mg I can barely choke down two protein cookies in the morning.
I prefer tirz over reta. The appetite suppression is stronger and my rhr doesn't increase. Reta also weirdly made my skin tingly. Both will work though. I'm currently at 3.75 mg a week of tirz. I get mine from peptidology(dot)co but literally any source that posts batch specific third party testing with consistently updated CoA's will work.
