Was was your most brutal sesh?
People on here actually do CrossFit?
stupid Matrix brand leg press machine only goes to 390. i do three sets of 55 at 390 and get a headache. going to actual failure on a compound leg lift is fucking insane.after 90 min stairmaster, i'll do 200 reps of the empty sled on the real leg press. have done 250. it takes like 7 minutes. it fucking fucking fucking sucks. these are my hardest workouts.but these were just part of training for the redbull 400, which was the hardest thing i've ever done. gave me and everyone else who did it some weird dust induced pneumonia, and caused about an hour of delirium after. redlined heart for the whole 11 minutes. blew up and overexerted zone 5 horrifically.by the end, was crawling one limb at a time--right arm, breathe, left arm, breathe, right leg, breathe, left leg, breathe, repeat. while sitting there recovering, seeing stars, still max effort breathing 15 mins after finishing, some olympic endurance athlete bro in the next wave does a fucking backflip, starts pumping the crowd up at the 1/2 mark, and continues jogging up the ski ramp. got cardiomogged hard! something like 70th place out of 400. if this fucker ever comes back to the US, i will make the champions wave or die trying.

Is it any good? I like juice-like consistency and fruit flavors instead of milky/chalky. Also, is this different from hydrolyzed whey isolate?

Better to workout as soon as I wake up or in the night?
If by night you really mean night and not afternoon or evening, then morning. Night is pretty much the only time when exercise will have negative effects on sleep and recovery. Your body is designed to rise with the sun and reach peak activity and then slow down and rest as the sun sets. Light activity around sunset can be restorative and therapeutic but intense activity can cause problems.
>>77488965>Before lunchdo you not have a job
>>77488233If you have a large variety of lifts you need to get done like fullbodies probably the morning just because you're going to need a larger variety of equipment and it's not as easy to do that in the afternoon or night at most gyms.
>>77488975Remote is pretty comfy, I do recommend it. I definitely don't miss squeezing into the overfilled evening gym at the previous office job.

>all i had to do to lose weight was cook my food in an air fryer instead of a pan with oil.I wasted so much time
>>77489087Correct, but it has* calories. I'm glad you learned your state of being verbs in 1st grade English class!
>>77489113Those are lipids. Calories are imaginary.
It's simple really, all you have to do is ask a CICO denialist to post their body. They won't, because they are fat, because their "diet theories" don't work. They will lie, post pictures saved from old threads, or avoid the topic entirely. This is because they are fat. They are fat because they are wrong.
>>77489121>heat isn't real, those are just molecules vibrating. >noise isn't real, that's just air moving. Low IQ filtered by higher order concepts. Built for the oil fields.
>>77489117Go without oil for a few days and your clothes will be looser.
Raymond Peat was wrong about some things.First off nitric oxide being mislabeled a stress hormone because it naturally increases with adrenaline, cortisol and estradiol in men.More pumps, better oxygenation and capillarization that can supply the muscle.
>tell myself i'll exercise for an hour>dont do shit>tell myself i'll work out for just a couple minutes>wind up working out for an hourWhat the fuck did my mind mean by this
>>77486617You gotta stop thinking about exercise and just do it. If you think about exercise, you will feel like you did it already even though you didn't.
>>77486617That trick works for everything. The book Atomic Habits talks about it. People procrastinate because they let tasks grow in their mind until they seem insurmountable, if you say "I'll just do [smallest amount possible]" you'll always do more than that and probably complete the whole task
>>77486617exercise feels good, but starting a workout feels bad
>>77486617You turn the hour into this mental monolith. Your mind views it as a chore and every second you procrastinate the monolith becomes more and more all encompassing until it gets to the point where you get too much in your head and tap out. Going in for a few minutes and seeing where it goes keeps you living in the moment and out of your head. It also mentally turns it from a chore to something youre doing because you like how it feels. If you manage to translate this mindset into every facet of your life you've basically reached enlightenment.
>>77487145this, all you need to do is take the first step. ive found it works with everything in life.

>>77487209When I was probably 9 or 10 I used to do thousands of situps a day and could flex like this. It went all the way down to my dick root lol. No six pack though because I had basically no muscle otherwise. My cousin was fucking ripped and did the same along with endless pushups because of Herschel Walker supposedly doing the same
>>77487209that's just a flyweight fighter making weight. absolutely demolished his opponent too
If time under tension is the main driver of muscle growth, then can we just have a completely static exercise routine, for example, just taking a pair of 15 lb dumbells, holding them in each hand with a bent arm, and just holding that position for like 10 minutes? This way we can progress forever with just a basic set of dumbells just by adding more time, and never suffer any injuries (have different positions for different muscles but basically the same idea, just hold a mid-squat position or a bent over hinge position with light weight, etc.
>>77488722WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>77488631you fucking faggots will do anything except lift a heavy fucking weight
>>77488712>>77488721>>77488787Lot of words but empirical evidence such as people with that one disease that makes them contract their muscles unwillingly constantly day & night and who end up jacked as fuck without any other physical activity says otherwise. Nice try though.
>>77488982brb tetanusmaxxing for the gains
>>77488631>time under tension is the main driver of muscle growthNo and nothing suggests that's even remotely true. Endurance training has the longest time under tension and the primary adaptation to endurance training is for the muscles to get smaller (and more vascular). Mechanical tension is the main driver of growth because you can't curl a soup can until you get 18" arms.
Lifts you’re too shy to do in public
>>77483401This looks ridiculous but it's an excellent glute warm-up
>>77482826I'm afraid people will think I'm dumb
>>77482826>>77482829This is the way. Gym is a place of improvement, and a place to let go of humanly worries. Being shy to do certain movements will only cause you to hate the gym. Dress appropriately, but whatever you want to wear, and do whatever the hell you want with proper form. No one is going to laugh at you. If they do, people will laugh at those who laugh at you.
>>77488422I tried it last thursday. They will look, but more like in a "what the hell, you can do that?" kind of way. I will not switch back, I had a lot of fun.
>>77489186>Dress appropriately, but whatever you want to wearHell yeah, brother
>ruins youre life
>>77488810>doesn't doing that just make the pores bigger and easier for more junk to get in?yes it doespeople see sebacious filaments and mistake them for blackheads or clogged pores. they're not the sameall filaments have that slightly brown/grey dot look to them. some people have more obvious dots, some people barely have them. you can reduce their size a bit with niacinamide and salicylic acid but it only works somewhat and needs constant maintenance.point is, the filaments are a natural part of your skin and trying to constantly open them up and clean them is stupid and only invites more gunk into them
>>77485990Not only do I have those but dark hairs come out of them too.

how the FUCK do i get abs like this, as a woman?
>>77488774Option A.Don't forget the premise here is that the results we're after are good abs just like in OP pic, not "maybe a little outline or whatever".You can either torture yourself into skellymode hoping your abs will start appearing, just like all the other people then coming here asking "I'm low bf where aer my abs!!!!" or "I lost le weight why do I still look skinny fat and my core is flabby wtf??". Or you just build them well like any other muscle and then at a normal bf they will be apparent and well-developed-looking.
>>77488774>>77488784Maybe this is unironically an American thing but in Europe if you just go out onto the street the vast majority of younger women you'll see will be ones that have bf damn well low enough for abs yet don't have any actual visible abs (because the muscle's just not developed).Being thin yet having no abs at all is probably the most common ab-state among women under 30. Then you have all of them doing bullshit on the treadmills or nonsense 2kg weight exercises because they fell for the "toning" and "dieting" psyop and think that surely if they just get from 20% to 16% they'll start having an ab line any moment.

>>77488794you need to stop those beautiful thin women on the street and tell them this
Feel great. Look great. Am happy. 10/10 would do again
They really are the simplest & most impactful commitments a person can make. It's insane how little focus there is on diet & exercise in schools nowadays. There is no aspect of your life that these two disciplines won't affect in a positive manner.
>>77489273Based, keep it up anon
>>77489273mental and physical are very connected
>>77489273the world is a different place when you look better than average.the world wants you weak.just by being fit you're taking on the entire world and winning.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4OP8FI1TXK8Does anyone hit a muscle group every day or ever other day instead of every third day like normal? Does it actually give you faster gains or is this video bullshit? How much would it increase likelihood of injury?
>>77488302Based Tyrone????
>>77488302so upper fullbody upper instead of removing the second lower day.what is your 1 push compound?
>>77487511So chockymilk then
>>77487280I'm not saying it can't work but I can't think of even one example of an elite bodybuilder who has made that style of high frequency training work. Maybe that doesn't mean anything, but you would think if hitting a muscle every day was the move then at least one guy would have done it and won an Olympia.The "Squat every day" guy (Ivan Djuric on Youtube) has been at it for like 7 years. He's strong but not like pro powerlifter strong. Guys reach similar levels of strength running 3x/week powerlifting programs for less than 5 years. This was my exact same 5 rep PR when I did back squat (probably at a higher bodyweight though) and I got there doing different 5/3/1 variants and Sheiko programs.https://youtu.be/3Iadpuj8Fk8?si=IA2KaIDJOIJRG3PX
