Explain why this wouldn't work
>>77151457No, that's a completely different thing.
>>77149724there's a machine that does this exactly
>>77151457>Can't I just pause at the top of my reps for like 5-10 seconds?yesbut it'll be less effective than just doing it for longer oncealso depends on your goals if this is useful thoughassuming it's something that keeps you under tensionthen it'll help with muscle endurance (just like any isometric)but you likely sacrifice some hypertrophy for it and won't be able to do as many reps due to muscle fatigueif your goal is to get big as quick as possible, this is obviously not helping>>77151467>No, that's a completely different thing.Comment too long.

>>77151694>why would it be?Because if you're able to repeatedly lift and hold up a weight, it means that it's far beyond your maximum voluntary contraction. If you push against an immovable weight, then that is 100% of your maximum voluntary contraction.
concentrics are good for hypertrophy. 5+ reps seems to be better than less, probably because of motor unit recruitment or something idk it doesn't matter if I can't explain why a 1rm concentric wouldn't be good for hypertrophy it just isn't
how can i get rid of lower stomach fat as a girl? im not fat (5'7 115lbs) but i have a piece of stubborn fat that sticks out under my belly button, it looks awful in tight clothes. do men ever get this? ive never gone to gym, would i have to work out to get rid of it? or just lose weight?

I ws thinking cycling so i dont destroy my joints. I already do sparring and bags. I need a good supplement
>>77148613>What is the best cardioSwimming
>>77150406You get the specificity from sparring and other boxing training. But unless you're doing multi hour sessions of it it's not a replacement for actual cardio.
>>77148613Outside of your sport specific work, swimming, cycling and rooning in that order.Rooning is great and heavy mileage can build strength in your legs but has the double edged sword of damaging joints and longer recovery.Cycling is essentially running without the high impact on your joints.Swimming is cycling but full body and involves breathing constraints.>>77148696Good post too
>>77148613Roadwork/Zone 2 Training: Aim for 30–60 minutes of steady-state exercise (running, swimming, or cycling) at a conversational pace, 2–3 times per week.Nasal Breathing: Practice low-intensity shadowboxing or light drills while breathing only through your nose to improve diaphragm efficiency and oxygenAssault Bike/Sprints: Perform all-out efforts for 10–30 seconds, followed by 1–3 minutes of active rest (light movement).Fight-Specific Intervals: Structure workouts into 5-minute rounds with 60 seconds of rest. For example, alternate 60 seconds of heavy bag work with 60 seconds of bodyweight exercises like burpees or sprawls.Shark Tank Drills: Stay in the center for 5–20 minutes while a fresh partner enters every 60 seconds to wrestle or spar with you. This forces you to maintain technique while exhausted.Heavy Bag Intervals: Perform 10–20 seconds of maximum intensity strikes followed by 1 minute of active defense and footwork.Relaxation: Fighters like Colby Covington stay "efficient" by throwing high-volume but lower-power strikes to maintain pace without gassing out.Comment too long.

>>77148613I don't run because I'm lazy, but /fit/'s obsession with running destroying your joints has always confused me.
Is bulking way harder than cutting?
>>77148961For me, yeah. I have a small appetite and hunger doesn't really bother me. I often have to force myself to eat and whenever I don't track my calories I lose weight
No. Next question
>>77149757vo2max doesn't matter. Can you run 5k in under 20 minutes? Then it doesn't matter what vo2max is. All these retarded metrics when you can just go outside and figure out how much you can do and try to increase the amount you can do.
>>77148961no, bulking is piss easy. you still have gains, so you're actually motivated to do your workouts.cutting is hard because you struggle to maintain your PRs so every workout feels like you are punishing yourself.
Dirty bulking is fucking easy but clean bulking is a pain in the ass.Eating sub maintenance is manageable with things like caffeine and I'm not a retard that thinks being hungry means I'm going to die so I can manage a cut.Overall bulking is easier than cutting except for clean bulking which requires discipline and effort
Do squats really work to make your ass bigger or is it mainly genetics?
>>77152055Squats, lunges etc. do work if you lift heavy and get stronger.

Hair loss at 26, what causes this?
>>77147791>reversing hair loss that severe at 26do you need to like on a unicorn horn or something like that to achieve that?
>metabolic issues >insulin resistance>fungal infections on the scalp>inflammation>endocrinal imbalances All epigenetic triggers for premature hair loss (i.e. before the age of 35). The whole DHT cascade is just a downstream effect. It's like getting hit by a car after somebody pushed you onto the road. Yes, it's the car that did the damage, but if there was nobody to push you it wouldn't have happened. Sometimes the road isn't even there (these are people who will never go bald no matter what because their hair follicles just have 0 genetic sensitivity to DHT).
I wonder if there's a correlation between having a unibrow and having no hair loss>dad had a unibrow and full head of hair his whole life>have unibrow and full of head of hair at 35

I don't listen to music in the gym. Am I missing out on something?
>>77150447Was just looking up old cassette players on eBay. All the sweet ones from the 80s are hundreds of dollars. Shit used to be in bins at the thrift. Has everything turned into some gay collectable market where all the prices are jacked up?
>>77150447Death metal only for me
Seriously considering hair frauding and wanted to see what anons had to say about it. I was initially worried about the price but have recently learned that a generic brand can be relatively inexpensive, it actually works out to be cheaper than most vitamins or health supplements.My biggest concern is routine. Apparently, it's twice a day forever for the best results, but I'm thinking about doing just once a day and if that's not optimal then so be it. Ideally, I'm hoping its just another little thing to add to the nightly routine along with brushing my teeth and moisturising my face etc. However, I've heard you need to wait up to 4 hours for it to dry, and you can't wash it or even go to bed before its dried or you can stain your pillowcase and have it rub all over face etc. This doesnt work for me because I shower at night right before bed. Any anons apply minoxidil before bed without issue?Alternatively, I could apply it in the morning before work. However, I'm already in a rush in the morning, and I ride a motorcycle to work with a helmet on and then spend a significant portion of the day with another helmet on. Will this affect the effectiveness of the minoxodil, or is that not a problem? Roughly how long does it take to apply? A few minutes? My hair is medium length and quite tangly, would that make it difficult to apply?Any other things you hadn't considered before taking it that you found to be an annoying inconvenience after trying it for a while? General comments?
>>77147472>meme hair productsyeah the same ones that stacies use and they have amazing hair that smells nice (only for chad though)
>>77140477how often do you dermaroll? Im getting conflicting information from the web.
>>77146207Im pretty fucking cardiovascular because im a /roon/er but im still seeing slight receeding norwoord type 1 at age 33. My dad is a rampant alcoholic and chain smoker and his hair line has been better than mine up to his 50's. Please explain this with your voodoo so I can pick up alcoholism myself.
>>77151633alcohol produces acetate which is one of the most potent vasodilators on the people. this is why drinking moderate - or even massive amounts - of alcohol is good for your cardiovascular health
>>77149648nta but chinese studies and papers in general have the reputation of being partially to fully fabricated.the publishing business in china is a bilion$ industry (basically pay2win for publishing) and chinese reviewers ((who got hired bc of nepotism) for journals usually let all chinese submissions pass through.
Let me guess, you "need" more?
>>77149584creatine is a bilionare scam for idiots, not using it the flavor and falling for the scam tells me you're a nigger

My mom started Ozempic and my grandmother is mad at her and freaking out over potential dangerous side effects, and telling my mom to just join her Zumba class insteadIs my grandmother right? Is Ozempic actually potentially dangerous?
>>77149670you definitely can. if you work an office job its easy as shit, and i work a pretty physical job as a nurse and i just have 250g of greek yoghurt and frozen berries and 50g of oats in there throughout my whole shift. works well for me and i remain fit.
>>77150066fasting means 0 food and work means physical labor, not sitting on your ass
>>77148650>Is Ozempic actually potentially dangerous?Potentially? Yes.
>>77148662I got a flu and lost 15 pounds after a week of puking and only drinking Gatorade. No need to """medicine"""
lets hope she has a good dietician/doc and a solid dietary plan. else she is not going to make it/gain 3/4 of the weight back in under 6 months and the whole ordeal was useless, dangerous and dumb
