How do you avoid getting the gymcel body type?

Gymcel is all in your head, you could be a pudgy fuck who shittalks other people for not going to the gym and you'd be a gymbcel, or you could even be olympia-tier and not be a gymcel by having a personality

>>74137285
The lessons to be learned here:
1. Be tall
2. Have a pretty/handsome face. If you're going to have facial hair make sure it isn't shit.
3. Have a good haircut, do not be bald or balding.
BONUS: Take photos of yourself standing in front of aesthetic background in good lighting with a naturalistic pose and a seductive facial expression. Do not take photos of yourself glaring at the camera like a mortal enemy while hitting an anime power pose with clenched fists in front of cheap blinds.

My body is fucked and I have scoliosis. It's not super severe but it's bad enough that when I try to do certain exercises I feel my spine pinching and it hurts for days. Anyone else have scoliosis? What exercises should I do? I don't really know how to even start even without scoliosis due to being a skeleton.

You might have slight scoliosis. I feel it on OHP and bench so I stopped benching desu and so dips and ring push ups.
>>
>>74138786
I have it as well, but probably not as severely as you according to the pain you're describing. As the other anon suggested, try to stretch a lot. My hip flexors are indeed tight as hell which surely doesn't help. Try starting very very lightly. Ironically the exercises you're probably most afraid of like I was (back involved movements like deadlift, back squat, row) are what will strengthen your back to support your spine. Done with good form at weights you can control they will begin to alleviate your back pain, not worsen it.

i think the girls who are most ogre-mode would be the most chill with and even feel complimented by being called ogre-mode. the core of ogre-mode is trying to name the strong, powerful side of physical femininity that our culture has forgotten or repressed despite it being the natural ideal state for women. all these tombros in >>74136808 >>74137010 >>74137099 >>74137141 and >>74137196 make good points; i went back and re-read proverbs 31 and it exactly illustrates what i mean by understanding physical strength and fortitude as a part of the ideal of feminine beauty that our ancestors understood but we have forgotten.

there are a lot of girls, but really people in general, who get out of dark times in their lives with fitness. i think this phenomena is more noticeable and pronounced with women because even the tiniest natty t-boost from regular exercise+good lean mass/fat ratio has a relatively bigger impact on them.

Weighted, yes.

No. Too much back involved. A strict bicep lift is better, such as a curl and all the curl variations that exist. Chin ups are very good for you, but not the best bicep lift especially considering half this board can't even do a single one.

I fell for the Starting Strength meme back in college and the most I got to show for it was a large ass and attention from fat gay boys. Getting back into weights now and I just want to brosplit.

Considering I'm bicep curling every day now, I want variations so I can switch things up. Give me your favorite bicep curls. What are objectively the most optimal variations to recruit the most muscle mass?

It’s made for people who want to get stronger. Post your copies or Starting Strength Basic Barbell Training and Practical Programming For Strength Training with timestamp. Oh, you cannot, as you are just parroting bullshit from some other retard online who looked at a Google sheets document from someone who copied an example of warm up and work sets for the big lifts.
>>
>>74138192
It is brutal youll get cns fatigue so fast once you find your actual working weight, squats and dls just do that. If youre always doing 2+ heavy days of squats and dls(cleans arent as bad or leg machines amd front squats) you wont be as able to push heavy weight you gotta cycle upper and lower body focus.

>Considering I'm bicep curling every day now, I want variations so I can switch things up. Give me your favorite bicep curls.
i'd recommend you pick a single body part or muscle group to hit 3x a week then do the rest 2x. if you really want to hit biceps every day then 4/7 days should be bullshit days where you're just trying to get a pump going with machines. Or even better, your bullshit days could be working on bicep focused skills.

What do I mean by skills? One of the things biceps do is help you balance on your hands, this is why gymnasts typically have nice arms. If you work towards something like a planche it's going to help grow your arms, work your abs and strengthen your rotator cuffs. Look up planche progressions if you're interested in this. I think if someone is trying to work in extra volume they should do something novel on the easy days for the sake of variety and fun. and if you want a list of random fun/feels good of exercises to bullshit with mine are
>farmer's walks
>pec deck and reverse pec deck
>cable bullshit

>handstand bullshit
>going to failure on a machine related to the free weight movement I was doing during my real working sets

You cant fall for starting strength. Getting strong and being able to switch in 6 months to hitting db incline press with 40kg for 8-12 reps is not "falling for SS". Thats literally the best case scenario for hypertrophy. I swear to god there are so many fucking dyel zoomer retards in my gym who have been training for couple of years and "they dont care about strength" and after 2-3 years they are still stuck doing like 25kg for reps on incline and they are adamant about "mind muscle connection and bodybuilding and hypertrophy". Man they sure are gonna get fucking yoked benching 25kg dumbbells. Any day now. "The muscle doesnt know how much weight is on the bar". Yes it fucking does lmfao thats the only part in your body that does know it. Your eyes can just see the number what it says on the plate or the dumbbell but you have no idea if it would be accurate or not, its the muscle that does the lifting that can tell if its heavy for you or not.

There has never been a single natural EVER on this earth that was big and didnt lift heavy. Not a single one. Reg Park and Steve Reeves were anal about doing 8-12 reps and perfect form. Guess what, they also benched 500lbs. For muscle growth, being able to do hypertrophy range with heavy weight > being able to do hypertrophy range with light weight. Its literally that simple.

How many of you could do keep up with me? Not too many, I can tell you that.
