I'm trying to save money on gas and there's one of these 10 minutes away by bike (as opposed to 40 minutes by bike to my current gym)No freeweights obviously, which sucks because I prefer not to use machines but whatevs
>>77233897>you can't have their pricing plan AND leave yourself open to dumbass lawsuits and insurance claims.I used to go to a crunch fitness that was 15 bucks a month and had free weights and even lifting platforms so you definitely can
>>77233769Not bad actually. My local gym here in Texas got bought out by them because of the size. I kept my membership because they literally sent us a letter saying that we will change nothing about your gym except new equipment. Since this is Texas and people do not like PF faggotry like in other states, they didn't say this outright, but the "off the books" attitude was, "we will not do the lunk alarm crap, rainbow flags, anti-fat shaming BS". Trust me. When the announcement was made that PF bought our gym (It was a local 3 location chain), people were pissed that a new progressive gym was coming. It's pretty nice though. The machinery is immaculate.
>No freeweights >in gymand americans wonder why they are degenerated and cucks nation,kek
There's nothing wrong with planet fitness. They even recently added full racks and barbells. So now they've got way more equipment, and they're 24/7 in many places.

>>77236668Monks practice fasting more than any other social class. Yet they still accumulate permanent damage from factors in OP post and die as a result.
>>77236678You haven't explained why they'd be immortal.
>>77236812Because their organs wouldn't degrade. We're talking about biological immortality here.
So I don't care about any of this shit. Someone give me a tldr. What am I supposed to take away
is this achievable natty
>>77235660I have met jeff before and I will say he looks a lot bigger on camera than he does in person. Obviously the dudes jacked but he's no more jacked than any other gym bro who's been serious about it for 5+ years, hench dude but nothing crazy. 17" arms tend to look a lot bigger than they are when you're 5'5 too lol. I think he's telling the truth that he's natty. no signs of steroid use over the years either, it's easy to spot especially in the long term, you notice when they go off cycle
>>77236708I don't see a single arm bigger than 12 inches there
>>77236736>I don't see a single arm bigger than 12 inches therethe fatcep fears the leanpill

could lifting save him?
>>77236008Weird take considering most of those incels are brown themself.
>>77236353why does he look like a microcephalic brazilian zika baby
>>77236353Nice catch, that's a hewbrew
>>77233922also true
>>77232830why do tall niggas have chopped faces half the time
I think I looked better when I was fat
literally impossible unless your face is so fucked that it doesn't matter what bf% you are anyway due to being borderline deformed, or if you've lost like 200 lbs and have very unfortunate sagging skin genetics
>>77235325imagine getting fat for the aestheticyou did the right thing op
>>77235325Never for men. Sometimes true for women, rare but possible.
>>77235325You didn't
>>77235325depends what you mean by fat. did you cut from 20% to 10% bodyfat or did you cut from being an obese disgusting fatass to 20%?
>Macedonians, particularly under Alexander the Great, adopted a clean-shaven look primarily for military practicality in close-quarters combat. Alexander feared that long beards, worn by traditional Greeks as a sign of wisdom, offered enemies an easy handle to grab during battle. This shift also symbolized youth, modernity, and a departure from the old-fashioned, bearded Greek stylethe greatest army in the world used to fucking shave so why do you have a beard?
>inherit the army with the most revolutionary infantry (sarissa)>multiple lucky events throughout his campaigns >faggot
>>77235576I only have a beard when the weather is cold.
>"Y-you don't get it. I-I totally shave JUST the top of my head to improve grip for my cool samurai helmet. Breathability and fit gets better or something"Some influential balding bug>"BRO YOU GOTTA CHONMAGE LIKE RYUSHUPUNGU PUKIYUKUFUSHA BRROoOOoO.">"HE MIN/MAXED HAIR BRO HE IS SO cOoL"
>wow, history!sŏyjak_apage.jpgglowie gayness as usual.
>>77235582Babies pull your beard when you pick them up but you are an incel, so no problem
Whats the best way to grow lower chest if you have man tits and cannot do decline bench press because you are a fat fuck?
>>77236161Cause seethe until failure
>>77236169I think close grip is a lot safer, they don't work the chest as much but it's hard to work anything when you're injured.
>>77236161GYAAAAAATT
>>77236161You can't target your upper or lower chestI'm so tired of gymbros retardation, it's not funny anymore
>>77236161just do flat bench mongoloid. it works your whole chest. you're a fat flabby tard you arent isolating muscle fibers like a bodybuilder. you're a heiffer, a hog, a swine. just lift and lose weight.
Is this physique even theoretically possible to attain?What are some good “goal” bodies in anime
>>77234653dream on
>>77234749how come DBZ looks like this (cool) but when i tried it on crunchyroll its a bunch of little children and when i tried to watch it on adult swim they were little gay chibis
>>77234967Are you talking about Dragon Ball vs Dragon Ball Z vs Dragon Ball Daima? Just read the manga - chapters 1 - 519.
>>77225535I saw a young asian guy who had something absurdly aesthetic like that and I'll never forget itlike a perfectly triangular torso and boulder shouldersI'm pretty sure it was synthol, but who knows

Looksmaxing Naturally and Healthily as a Mediterranean or Majority Med phenotype? + Mental/Personality Adjustment recommendations?6-7 rating in looks but women still give up after the short-term relationship scenario because of my mentality though put me in room with normal guys I lookswise outrank them but not in personality though, I need to be more naturing and providing etc...
>>77236234Go into the sun a moderate amount if you're living where your ancestors livedIf you've moved up north, be in the sun for as long as possible.Otherwise >>77236262 has got you covered.You'll need to give me your personality profile though, saying you need to be more nurturing and 'providing' could mean a bunch of things, good and bad.
>>77236262>>77236515Why are Americans so obsessed about skin pigmentation and height?Is it a symptom of the underlying identity confusion that follows growing up and living in a “melting pot” society?
>>77236540Not American. I want him in the sun because its good for him
>>77236262>>77236540>>77236515being tanned while having fitzpatrick 3 type skin and light eyes we meds often have is literally how proto indoeuropeans, aryans looked like, no need to change that.

what kind of chest do you have?
>>77235745Not closely. If you do not know this for yourself, you are nowhere near educated enough. This muscle building hobby either requires good genetics (in which case it doesn't matter what you do; have fun) or intelligence, education, consistency and discipline. Stop wasting time with dumbells and use the barbell to get up to speed. You are miles away.
>>77236737Almost. There isnt much point in doing more than one exercise per bodypart HOWEVER it might prevent certain overuse injuries from developing, especially with regard to the joints.20 sets of bench might be a lot of wear and tear on certain joints, but split those 20 sets up over 3-5 different exercises and the pecs still get a lot of volume and time under tension, but the joints get less wear. Arguably.For newbs who are weak, this doesnt matter.
>>77236740I guess so, still I train useless muscles, like my calves.But I genuinely think pecs look kind of feminine.
>>77236718uh oh stinky
>>77236737the guy's a retard who's never heard of a muscle having more than one head or segment of coordinated fibers
be real af with me. how likely is it to get mercury poisoning as a young healthy male eating 6 cans of tuna per day for 4-6 weeks?
>>77232015When I was a kid I'd smash thermometers and roll the liquid mercury around in my hand playing with it until I got bored. seafood mercury is nothing to me
>>77229902Thanks for the info, it takes 5 months to completely leave the body. This is the kind of replies I was looking for.>>77230850>>77232015>>77229241I've shortened my 6 week period of eating tuna down to 2 weeks. I think I'm feeling the effects of mercury poisoning last night when I tried to go to sleep and my heartbeat was uncomfortable and I was salivating. It might just be in my head but I ate about 32 cans of tuna in that time so I'm just going to call it and switch to eating protein powders for the rest of the cut.
>>77226826Bro just get canned mackerel. In olive oil. The Atlantic mackerel is a much smaller fish so it accrues way less heavy metals.
>>77234920That's actually good advice
>>77226826canned chicken is superior
First post on /fit ever. M33, been going to the gym on and off for the past 15 years, wrecked my back multiple times between L5/S1, finally had it checked a year ago, wasn't DOMS, and hasn't been the years before that either. Also developed carpal tunnel in my left hand because of prolonged period with a jackhammer. Been a bit frustrated, but slowly becoming healthy again because of Stuart McGills books "Back Mechanic". I'm a bit of a noob when it comes to bodyweight, stretching, yoga and calisthenics. Do you anons have any advice or suggestions on good exercises, routines or experts I should look into? Appreciate all input except shit ones.
>>77236587I'm going to check that book out, good luck with your back health
Look into this channel:https://www.youtube.com/@lowbackability
well if i could only do bodyweight for lower back i would start with www.youtube.com/watch?v=4BOTvaRaDjI&pp=ygUPZm91bmRhdGlvbiBiYWNrand check the other routines they have, try them out, find out the one thats doable for me and build up from there to maybe some bodyweight squats and kettlebell swings
>>77236587Don't listen to any advice here on specific exercises you should do. You need to go to a physical therapist, where you'll likely get directed to do exercises that directly target your back problems in a way that helps rather than makes it worse. Nobody here can tell you those exercises, because it depends on your specific back conditions and what you specifically can safely do.
>>77236592Please do. It is a gamechanger. Can also just search for McGill "Big 4" on YouTube.>>77236593Thanks, I see a lot of good reviews of this channel. >>77236594Thanks bud>>77236599It is sounds advice. I should get a physical therapist. It is free here after all.

what are the basics to becoming a competent fighter? i get you need some form of explosive resistance training and conditioning (which i do already) and good cardio (still lacking in this department)i'm thinking of picking up swimming and sprints to improve my rhr and stamina, as well as putting a lot of work into learning the 4 core punch types, mastering the roundhouse and front kick, and practicing 3-4 judo throws ad nauseaum. how retarded is this? i really can't join a fighting gym (bumfuck nowhere) but have many friends who are eager to spar and practice
>>77232266just osoto gari'd my first training my partner LOOOOL
>>77232266> friends to spar and practicedo boxing drills where you are relaxed and are just chill and playful but snappy. do light striking sparring. keep it playful. no gloves preferably. do all possible boxing drills that don't involve actual boxing - like the one where you hold a paper in your mouth and the other guy has to snatch it. 4 punches don't exist, it's all the same principle.do a lot of wrestling and hard wrestling sparring. wrestling will cover your "explosive resistance training" and conditioning. dont waste time on swimming/sprinting/anything but basic bodybuilding outside of that stuff.shadowbox if your friends are not available to spar.only train calf kick/front kick leg wise
>>77232266>what are the basics to becoming a competent fighter?A good punch and soem stand up grappling. Crdio is just there to make a weight class, you get your specific stamina with sparring/rolling and learning to realx into the techniques.Combat Sports training is the ost voodoo area of an already voodoo science (aka sports science). It's mostly based on myth and hearsay especially in the US. We make do with steroids, but ther eis no one who really understand the game anymore. Fighters today are worse than in the 1990s in almost every measure ffs.Read "The Arc of Boxing" first if you disagree.
>>77233750Also grappling against a big person is the move if you actually have skill and they dont. Infact grappling is amazing self defense to have against anyone. If youre up against an untrained person, and they have 50 lbs plus height on you, if you trained well you can most likely take them down pretty easily. Of course its best not to fight but obviously im talking if you have to.
>>77236451is basic judo enough or do you need to go full on BJJ and other stuff?
You are basically retarded or glow bright as the sun if you push this. There are demons, and then there are ET Civilizations visiting in physical spacecraft. The MIC and Intel communities want to conflate the two so they can fake an eschatological event. Stop eating the slop

Yes. Ayys exist. FTL is possible and so is actual physical teleportation. Somewhere out there an alien king is making gains right now.
