for me, it's velo. I find their pouches preferable to zyn, or oni.Definitely don't just leave it in for 5 minutes if you're not used to using them. But there are some benefits. Not sure they outweigh the cardio negitives though. As tucker carlson alluded to, there are true male enhancement benefits to it. Also it seems to me like a coffee/energy drink adjacent boost.

My wrist is super fucked up. I’m getting surgery in the fall, but it’s gotten so unstable that they put me in a cast for the next month to try to calm things down a bit. While a much lesser problem than my wrist itself, I’ve had the cast on for just a few days and it’s already getting kinda funky after just doing some cardio and bodyweight training. Any advice on training in a cast so my arm doesn’t smell like death? I figure it’s good to get a trial run now, because I’ve got another 3 months of casting starting this fall.

Just forego strength training and walk 2 hours a day. This will be a great opportunity to get your cardio up to par as well, it's more important than strength for health and longevity anyway. Don't forget that with this cast you can also not catch yourself if you fall, so walking is the only safe option over running or biking (or any other cardio). Walking an hour in the morning and then before sleep is also a great way to explore your town, make it your goal to walk every single road once instead of always heading straight for the highway

>>77366200
If you're worried about your cast smelling like death use hand sanitizer, but that only delays the smell it will inevitably end up reeking if you continue to get sweat in it

Do people even realize that bodybuilding has been going on for barely 60-80 years (nothing in terms of evolution) essentially exploiting natural adaptation mechanisms of the human body? It's just a retarded biology experiment.
This is what natty peak actually looks like from pre-roid bodybuilders, why are we pretending that you need more than this? (99.9% of people will never reach this without gear anyway)

Bros I have tried and tried but cannot cut out the late night cravings for sweets and candy. I can lift and do cardio burning 750 calories and eat clean protein and veggies all day. Then at night, I lose control every time.

Blast me all you want, I know self control is pathetic and I need to work on it. But does anyone have any productive techniques or mental frameworks for getting around this?

Anyone take psyllium husk to increase fiber intake? I am considering it to increase fiber and also to feel more full while cutting.

Also a bit concerned about the lead it can have.

I tried some a few times for constipation. Powdered psyllium actually does something, but it's a pain to consume - it actually needs to be fully dissolved in water, and the result is nasty to drink. Loose husks are easier to eat - literally just sprinkle some on food - but the effect is barely noticeable this way.

You're being being disingenuous. I cut so hard I hit BMI 14.5 and clocked 19 bpm om Holter monitoring - that's how disciplined I was at starving. But when evening comes and mom offers me pizza, that motherfucker Evening Bryan rationalizes "well, it's July 1st tomorrow; you can enjoy yourself tonight and start over from a clean slate."

At this point Evening Bryan has gone as far in his mental gymnastics as to use fucking lunar cycles as excuses, ("New moon, new me! Am I right? We start again tomorrow!") giving him virtually unlimited options to justify yet another "one last cheat day" in an endless series of last cheat days

I mostly work a 4 day week, if i only go to the gym the 3 days that i’m off(about 2 hours a day) would that be enough for slimming down/gaining more muscle?

You know what's really gay?
The moment they take their shorts off it all just falls down. It's not even impressive, they don't work on their physiques, they aren't shaped that way, it's fake and disappointing.

File deleted.
It's simple, mechanically non-complex, everyone can do it, everyone can take part in it. Corporations can organize running events as team-buildings exercises, you can run with their tricot and wear their corporate logos, you can run for charities and for nebulous projects halfway around the world, which you have no meaningful real physical relationship to. Everyone can run after a week of getting used to running. It's an inoffensive sport. You don't build muscles, which has problematic hierarchical implications about the fundamental indifference of the Human experience and biology. You just lose some calories. You can use running as a way to counter your snack-eating habits. Running produces the same Human body. It doesn't require a lot of consistent discipline, it doesn't require good habits, it doesn't require a diet, rich with animal protein. It doesn't even require you to sleep well. You can have a very cortisol-rich lifestyle and still go running regularly. You can feel a rush of energy without being energetic. You can feel healthy without being fit. You can feel like you do something without being capable. Running is something even the most humiliated and degraded slave from a thousand years ago would be able to do. So it's the perfect sport for a class of people, who found themselves with all of the power and the political instinct to simultaneously mirror, but also distinguish themselves from the lower classes.

is it possible to drink and stay fit? I want to drink more especially since its summer and wintergrind is over.
>>
I had this one figured out in my 20's but spirits are the lowest form of calories. But the catch is that you absolutely should not start chugging it. It gives the most pleasant feeling when drunk, it doesn't make you go to the bathroom every 10 mins to drink lije with beer.
But the catch... yeah. Easily said than done to contain yourself. I used to do a few shots and felt tipsy and loosened up the rest of the evening. Hard to do in a setting that's competitive drinking. For some reason drinkers only conversate of you're holding a drink too, and since well, you're just standing there, might as well sip here and there.

I used to have insane sugar cravings, to the point where I suffered neurological symptoms if I didn’t eat carbs.

As of one week ago, just the mere thought of rice felt bloating, I just couldn’t eat carbs despite being hungry. Because I needed to eat something, I made a bunch of broccoli instead and they felt like medicine to me.

Since that day, I only had sugar cravings one time and at that I ate 3 chocolate bars. 6 days, I can’t stand the thought of carbs. All I eat are protein and vegetables.

Wtf is going on with me bros?

That's been heavily documented as "extreme body modification" for humans as it genuinely disfigures & harms the human body, having only negative effects on their health. You are not "making your neck longer" or "making yourself taller." You're breaking your chest and collarbones.
Similarly, the Chinese cultural history of "small feet" by binding their little girls since infancy doesn't result in them having tiny feet; it results in them obliterating their arches and toe placement, forcing their entire foot into a vertical bone mess and they lose the ability to walk.

I mean Tyson was pretty fucking jacked. But overall punching power is more about speed, explosivity and motor unit recruitment than pure strenght. Power also only gets you so far as well and is only one part of it. You need things like cardio, reflexes, timing, accuracy and durability (chin) as well. So fighters barely put any effort in building muscles and pure strenght.

I've blasted 2000mg test/week (average natty production is 50mg) and I never had aggression, chimpouts or sexual displays (twerking?).
Some slight increase within the natty range isnt going to cause all that either.
They act that way because they are low IQ savages, not from a slightly higher natty test level.

The whole point of testosterone is aggression. Male animals are more aggressive than female animals. Castrated male animals lose a lot of their aggression.
If you castrated Mike Tyson, he will lose a lot of his aggression.
The whole reason that testosterone makes muscles grow bigger is so that a male of any species including humans can more effectively impose their aggression on others in the form of fighting, bullying, intimidation and resource and sexual mate acquiring. Aggression is easier to impose on others if you are bigger and stronger. Aggression is the primary purpose and increased muscle mass is a secondary effect to successfully facilitate aggressive actions upon others via the body contracting muscles forcefully in order to acquire status, resources and sex, to pass on genes.
>>
>>77366419
Ok natty, thanks for lecture on testosterone.
Doesnt change the fact that blasting shitloads of test isnt really going to make most people more aggressive.
Mike Tyson is aggressive because of his personality. If he took test its probably not going to make him more aggressive.
