>>77524861Yoi probably suffer from extreme geneletism.I have mild muscle geneletism so I understand.Start by getting your T checked. Depending on results, consider Enclomiphene.Good luck (you're gonna need it)
>>77524861Low T and retarded. Just chill with 200mg test a week
>>77524861Don't bulk unless you're prepared to blast steroids during and after
For context:174cm/5'8.5"1st: September 2024, 77kg/170lbs2nd: January 2026, 57kg/125lbs. Even at Auschwitz weight I had love handles and flabby skin under my chin.3rd: now, 73kg/160lbs>>77525020Yeah, I've made peace that I'm a low T genetic reject. I guess I also have don't get quality sleep, but I don't think it should be this much of a factor. (I get 8 hours of sleep a day most of the time, but it's not continous, I stay up late and take naps throughout the day. Also I'm pretty sure I have mild sleep apnea because of my crooked septum.)
>>77524861>overeat on purpose>gain weight>blame it on an objectively healthy behaviorWe really needed a thread for this huh
It's impossible to get fat on TOMAD (Two Meals A Day)
>>77525339I've put on 2 kg in 2 weeks eating twice a day and I'm 6'4 and 87kg
>>77525958u mad?
>>77525339i got pretty thick off OMAD
>>77525346>>77526667Just how much of a truckload of food where you guys eating in a single sitting? The whole point of omad is that it should make calorie restriction easier even without counting them, simply because there's only so much food you can eat all at once without throwing up.
>>77526679Thats not the point
Getting and staying sober is /fit/ right? I’ve been trolling this AA meeting IRL by countering the groupthink shit the old heads talk about and agree amongst each other every single day. I’ve been sober 5 years and I’m sure these oldfags think I’m going to relapse any day now. I go about twice a month to do this.>hurr durr I micromanaged all my coworkers and children while wasted and drinking on the job and now I turn it over to God and don’t try to run the whole show>My children still won’t talk to me but that’s ok because I told them I was sorry and now it’s on them>You must agree that you tried to run the whole show or you’ll never be sober>You have to get sober my way

i only lift to increase my upper body muscle mass
>>77526642>chicken legs from squatshis form probably relied on core and lower back strength more than quads, squats easily deprioritize quads if you try to lift too heavy with them
>>77526617 Ow you post body
>>77526647>Sucking his gut in and afraid to show arms or legsLelelelelelel
>>77526647Well you're not fat but you're not particularly muscular. Are you short? Why are you afraid of fighting?
>>77525027Only weak faggots skip leg day. You need a strong foundation for aesthetics and power.
I'm taking my girl friend (friend who is a girl, not my gf) to the gym and I have no idea how to help her train to get a nice gym bod. I have her doing RDLs and squats but aside from that I'm clueless. What lifts should women do to get dat bod?

My parents introduced me into sports when I was little:>Taekwondo>Tennis >Swimming >Track >Football soccer If I wasn't a lazy cunt I could have achieved more. Maybe TRY to get pro at something (at least two cousins tried). I had the time, youth and my family was solid upper middle class so I could afford instructors, good equipment, etc.
>>77517373Taekwondo isn’t a real sport
>>77524963It makes sense that you learned to dislike sports because of that but as adults we are different people, you know you would surprise yourself if you tried to do the same sports you couldn't do back then and put even minimal effort.
>>77517373>play sports all day as a kid>just fuck around, competition is not existent because you live in the middle of nowhere>best you can do is be the best in the neighborhood, which is pretty easy. The ceiling is so low you don't even know better exists.It was pretty fun, but when I realized that tryharding was a thing it was way too late.
>>77526311Eh, I'm still fairly antisocial as an adult and only really like solo sports, like afromentioned archery, or amateur motorsports (karting and autocross). I guess the only kind of team "sport" I do (if you can even call it a sport) is 2v2 when we go play billard as a friend group.
>>77517373>Argie DNA and one of the best educational system at its prime (before populist killed it)I want my past back.
>be me>own a gym>it's time to buy the equipment>buy just 1 set of each dumbells for weight>1 shoulder press should about right>1 preacher curl machine should be enough>exercise bikes? let's get 100 of them>throw in 200 treadmills while you're at it
>>77524995all of the bikes and treadmills are always empty though. whereas there is a line of people waiting to lift and use the machines
>>77524999It's because you never go to the gym when there are classes where 47 old ladies are using those bikes while getting yelled at
>>77524881Guy looks like a fucking douchebag

The cardio equipment is fully occupied after New Years which is when they make their money in yearly subscription fees. If someone walks in January 2 and the cardio is full they may not pay the $250.
Why yes, I DO take creatine!What gave it away?
>>77526760finasteride now
>>77526771So you want him to be a tranny instead?
>>77526773imagine being a victim to your own hair. just take finasteride and go all out on creatine and other things youre afraid of trying because of baldness
>>77526782I never needed creatine, fina or any of the shit you subhumans use due to your horrible genetics.

chest-supported Kelso Shrugs (i.e. horizontal shrugs) are the absolute best way to stimulate your traps and they mog your vertical shrugs, deadlifts, farmer’s carries, upper back rows etc. to Gandy and back, and Kelso was an absolute fucking genius.Literally all you need for traps is a kelso shrug and a y-raise and you chilling.Kelsos need to get more mainstream because I am tired of gymcels thinking I am egolifting on rows and also Kelso deserves recognition (Rest in Peace)
>>77524578Facts blud big facts big body frog knows the kelso is the real deal bigga
>>77525250Isn't this that mentally ill kid
>>77524578Nobody who is serious about working out does these
>>77526460what is the main function of the trapezius muscle you retarded fucking nigger? its scapular retraction. kelso shrugs are a pure scapular retraction movement, a pure trapezius isolation movement in the same way that scapular protraction, i.e. serratus punches, is the best way to isolate the serratus anterior
>>77526460bro doesnt perform elbow flexion (any curl variation) because anybody who isolates a muscle through its main function is not serious about lifting, the biceps will just grow from rowing. no spinal flexion for the abs, no spinal extension for the erector spinae, they will just grow isometrically from squats and deadlifts. no shoulder flexion for the anterior delts, no shoulder abduction for the medial deltoid. if you isolate any of your muscles through their main function you are not serious about lifting bro
Swimming is by far the best sport for everyday life
>>77521784This made me laugh
>>77526302Did he have a BBC? Did you have a prostate orgasm?
>>77526091I've mostly fucked attractive athletic women, my current gf is an ex track athlete, my ex was a volleyball player etc., but never got the chance to date or fuck a diver chick, they are pretty rare, it's a small niche sport. The hottest ones go on full scholarship rides to the US, immidately after high school. I am just saying it's unfair in that aspect. Not my fault for being born in this shithole of a continent. You guys have it so much better with hot athletic women with high school and college sports, those are pretty non existent here in EU. If I was born in the US nothing would stop me from fucking these chicks. FYI I went on a date with one but she was about to leave for the US, I am saying this from experience. That was the closest I ever got to banging one, but I really want to though. I refuse to die without banging one
There is a pool near my house bit its too expensive
>>77520592There are so many women in swimming compared to men, can attest

Fuck natty lifting if you can't achieve something like this, what's the point then? To look like a soccer player after 10 years of lifting?
>>77523927>dick rots and loses all function so you can put on some muscle Ridiculous
>>77523952>live longer90% of every golden age BB and up to the 90s is still alive and rocking even into 70s. Most also far far more movie the average natty goy of their same age, as they built their strength and maintained it. Also funniest shit some retard on 4chan wants to live to 90 or someshit
>>77525816Let's check context clues: Perhaps it's about not living to 90 but living through your maximal lifespan while preserving mobility and quality of life
>>77525889>but like functional mobilityWhich is much easier to maintain when you had the strength of 5 men when 20-40. Natty cope is pathetic. >muh mobility issuesOnly applies to some mass monsters, which isnt maintained by any BB past 40... youre just parroting random shit
>>77525387Literally the opposite

What are some good spinal extension exercises? Is picrel good?
>>77525109I have one of them in my spare bedroom and haved used it first thing in the morning for years. Recommend

>>77525707>We know compressing discs under load amd shearing forces on them are not goodNot good for dead pigs, yeah.
>>77526421Humans have slipped discs, ruptured discs and other injuries they incurred while doing resistance training. We know this because they experienced sudden pain during a workout. These injuries happen, under load, and we even have it on film in some cases. What is your point?
