High carb makes me feel miserable. Idk if it's cuz i might be becoming diabetic or smth... A high-carb meal is pretty much guaranteed to make me have an energy crash and become an anxious brainfogged wreck a few hours later
It's crazy how much better and more focused I feel throughout the day when I eat like 150g+ of fats and only like 230g of carbs max (which to some is still high-carb tbf), with the carbs always being mixed with an adequate amount of fat. I can also get away with higher carb but only having a super high carb meal for dinner (I'm sleeping anyway lol)

High-carb meals with lots of protein but no fat also make me feel terrible. Fat just seems crucial for me to feel good after a meal.

The other day, I said fuck it, and I had like 700g of watermelon, 140g of charries and 400g of pineapple as an afternoon snack and pre-workout, and near the end of my workout I felt like I was gonna pass out and I had to sit down and eat a banana, which probably shouldn't happen. The other day I had a high-carb fruit snack too, and I started to feel shaky and super anxious a couple hours later

Not to mention that shit like fruit and potatoes don't satiate me whatsoever. I'm left with literal 24/7 sugar cravings as if I were a fucking junkie.

These people always want to distill an insanely complicated subject down to catchphrases then freak out when two of the overly simplified catchphrases they impose on the guy giving advice contradict each other. "How can the randle cycle be true if we are meant to eat saturated fats?" "How can PUFA be bad if milk and eggs are good but they have some pufa?" "If sugar is good then why would it be a bad idea to eat nothing but a kilogram of sugar a day?"

"Peating is realizing they deserve it"

177cm 100kg+ obese anon with manboobs here. I finally did it, I subscribed for one year to my local gym. It's 24h open and I'm a night shift worker so I will go there at night or in the early morning after work. I'm too shy to go at times where there's more people. I have literally no idea what I'm doing but I'm gonna make it.

Anyway, gonna head to the gym now to get my membership card and a starter pack, which includes things like a towel. After that I will go back home and come back at midnight.

This will definitely happen if you come to see it as a hobby and something you enjoy. Focus on the small results, like beating your old personal best, and the small improvements you will begin to pickup month by month

OP here, I had my first day at the gym last night. I went at around 1 AM but to my disappointment there were some other people at the gym too. I'm following this beginner's tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=89F7Gcpi_Rk

It was a bit difficult to find the right machines, I had to watch the video multiple times and compare. The hardest thing for me is what the video is showing at 2:13. I used two 5kg dumbbells but I couldn't get my arms up anymore at the third set. Next time I will try 4kg.
Anyway, I'm excited to go again for leg day. I got really sweaty but it was fun and worth it. How long should a gym day take btw? Because I feel like I can do all of this in 20 minutes once I have routine.

Is this shit worth on pullups or is this a waste of time? I bulked up a bit too much and I can only do max 7 pullups now.

Is it worth trying to do 1 pull up every 30 seconds with maximum explosiveness? Or maybe 2 pull ups with 1 min rest for 10-20 sets? It helps with my form because otherwise it breaks down after 4-5 pull ups.

This way, I would get much more volume than my usual half-assed pullups.

It works. When I was 18 (18 years ago) I put a bar in my doorway and made sure to do 5-10 sets of 5 a day. I was able to do 10. Eventually I worked up to keeping a dip belt in my doorway and got up to a 24kg kettlebell on the belt. Within 6 months I tested and got 22 pull ups and was able to do a single with an added 120 lbs on the belt

Why the fuck would you half-ass your training for 2 months if you can easily fit 8 full sets per week to failure and progress 5 kg faster?
>>
>>77367579
Not him, but the 3x8 down sets add some volume. There was a guy who tripped here years ago called garagebro who got strong as fuck on it. Basically you progress faster than the weight moves for a while so it gives you a long runway of consistent size and strength gains before stalling

*there are supposed to be 3x8 down sets that are not listed. Iirc they’re 80% of the heavier working weight

Did this nigga really herniate ALL his intestines into his ballsack?

Due to my late stage alcoholism, I start puking blood almost every time I drink heavily, both from stomach issues and esophageal varices which is every day (though I don't pop the third bottle of vodka until late evening, usually not even finishing it because I like having some ready to repair quickly in the morning).
I wonder if this can be mitigated by "boofing"? Do you have experience with boofing? What strength and how much at once can you pour "into it" without it burning?

Please help me. I’m such a noob at this diet stuff.

I’ve been in a 4 week caloric deficit of probably 700 calories if I consider the extra exercise I’m doing. I’m 81kg at 186cm. Was going really easy mentally and physically till I hit a completely wall on Monday in terms of energy and fatigue. I was lights out and had to go home for the day because I couldn’t think straight.

I took it as a signal that I need to eat maintenance for a couple days. I’m on a second day of maintenance. Eating lots of carbs so that my glycogen refills.

Since then I’ve been feeling like a bottomless pit of hunger even though I’m eating more. What am I doing wrong?

Pic related is normal diet plus extra carbs. I get extremely hungry at 10am so have an extra meal currently. Evenings I don’t get hungry and can sleep ok.

That’s lean enough if you’re natural (looking lean in your pic at your stats). You can go leaner but it won’t be very sustainable unless you’re unemployed/have no commitments.

Are you really only eating 1000kcal/day? That’s way too low. You’ll end up losing muscle mass too. Aim for a slower rate of loss 0.25kg/week as every kg you’ll lose from this point will have a dramatic effect on your physique and each kg will be much harder to lose

This. Decompression is a part of lower back pain relief, but it's the lesser part, and much more necessary is strengthening your back with a back extension bench. Moreover, you can achieve decompression by doing dead hangs, back hangs on the extension bench, and ring or paralette holds.

When normies ask you how much do you work out, what is your answer? Do you say the truth? Do you play into the "bodybuilders are at the gym 8 hours a day" myth? Or do you downplay it?

A normie recently asked me how often do I work out and I told him:
>20 pushups a day right after getting out of bed and swimming once a week

The funniest thing is, he believed what I said, because those faggots don't even enough discipline to do even 20 push ups for a week. So he does not know if it really would give him similar results. Obviously, I work out 5 days a week with weights and go heavy as fuck. But it was fun to see a normie seethe.

>dude I’ve never been in a gym
I just use the calisthenics park down the street and use dumbbells inside my apartment. It’s also a lie because I used to be in many gyms and helped build one even but idgaf.

Well I'm a gay guy who goes to the gym a lot mostly trying to have sex with men. So I tell them how to lift in a way that hurts their shoulders and other maximally counterproductive shit like you need to rest the muscle only a madman would curl thrice a week or put the fork down you are lifting weight for what to gain flab hoping they stay skinny and an object of my gay lust. All you have to do to the gym twinks is flex your lifts or outpose them and their ass is yours for the fucking.

"As often as I can with life getting in the way y'know and I try my best at eating smart. Watching what you eat is like 90% of it, just tryna stay in shape to move a couch or something around the house" that's enough rambling to carry the conversation to something else, if they want specifics they can ask but that's general enough that most don't care, it's not a secret, people can look up what to do on their phones instantly, but if they ask what they should do "there's a lot of routines and exercises online, try different things to see what works for you, no 2 bodies are the same, but as long as you're eating right you'll be fine good luck"
