What's the most retarded advice you ever got/fell for from Bodybuilders or /fit/forums?I got duped into heavy Bicep training and Cheat Curls. I believed Arnold and some people here and didn't get any results with this bullshit. The only thing that saved me was good Tricep genetics, otherwise I would have twig Arms back then. I switched to light Bicep work and boom, extra 2.5 inches magically appeared.
>>76995718upright rows le bad XDDDI started doing them both with DBs and EZ Bar and they are hands down the best exercise for the Delts, Traps and Upper Back in general. They even hit the neck.
nearly anything posted online as fitness advice is the most awful advice one can conceive of as it came from the mentally ill roidtranny brain
>>76995718do you mean high rep low weight. I dont understand
Basically every supplement I ever bought besidess creatine and whey (and even that I don't use)Never noticed an ounce of difference from any of it>>76995894On here most of it comes from guys who don't even lift but just want to demoralize
>>76995728This is one exercise I always use to do before I found the internet... Im going back
>>76995917Lower weight, higher reps, 12-16 sets for Biceps per week. Split in two or even three sessions of course.>>76995728Seconded. Developed my neck nicely. I don't understand the aversion people have towards it, it's quite literally a "Row" for Shoulders and Upper Body.
>>76995936So 10x5? 3 times a week?
>>76995718Fell for the muh rows and pullup volume will grow your biceps but i was also scared after seeing all those bicep snap videos
>>76996149Worth a try.
>>76996162le compounds is all you need :)
squats and deadlifts are enough for abs
Any exercise that doesn't revolve around heavy weights and barbell compound lifts are bad. Ditched the meme powerlifting exercises and switched to machines and dumbbells.
That you could grow a decent physique from home without equipment as a dyel. At least not without the willpower and experience that comes with years of exercising
>>76996206>11450 binge fast tomorrow
>>76996235even worse, that you dont need to work abs at all.
>>76996266I think you can get a "decent physique" with nothing but dips and pull-ups.
I have never ever ever been led astray. You guys rule.
>>76996270Is that Ric Trump?
>>76995728All of fitness influencers were harsh on them
>>76995718Needing 200g of protein a dayThe anti carb propaganda
>>76995718"If you are not getting results, it means you are doing something wrong"No fuck you. Lifting weights, following various known to work routines and eating right and sleeping is not rocket science. Literal 50 IQ retard negro Ronnie Coleman and other retard meat heads who get good results can even do it. Any fucking retard can lift to failure, do enough volume and eat enough calories and protein, etcIf you are not getting results after years of trying it's due to genetics. "you're doing it wrong" shut the fuck up dipshit.
>>76995718How many sets were you doing Volume is volume is volume At least heavy work gains strength as well
>>76997715KekBeing mad about SS is like being mad about children's tricyclesYou run SS for 3-6 months so you can actually make gains on all those retarded programs that can't work for noobs
>>76997840Won't stop drinking or weed, huh?Post your diet and these magical routines you tried
>>76997715I was there and saw all the memes about SS giving people the t-rex physique, and all people doing GOMAD getting fat, so I did Stronglifts 5x5 instead.
>>76997571Based
>>76997840>>76997715Gotta be samefagging lmaoooooooooooo
Mine was neglecting arms and compounds would take care of it. Yeah eventually my forearms developed golfers elbows from going heavy with the lat pull down. Given I also had anti-inflammatories and was using the thicker bar.Really started doing more and going heavier with arms, helped a lot and they are their own strength
>>76997923The other guy isn't me but I mostly agree. I wouldn't go so far as to completely discount the importance of knowledge, proper technique, programming, optimal diet and sleep, but it's true that none of those things can completely overcome a case of bad insertions, frame, proportion, naturally low testosterone range, etc., and I've seen far too many cases of people coasting by on genetics while apparently not even having the most basic knowledge of any of the above, drooling cross-eyed idiots that were somehow benching above 225 but didn't even have the sense to grip the bar evenly or load the same weights on each side.
>>76997905I actually did stronglifts5x5+GOMAD because the stronglifts site had GOMAD listed as a suggestion for total newbies at the time, which is almost just as stupid. I still got fat and became a GOMAD victim, and the torturous 5x5 squats 3 times a week grew even more gargantuan legs & ass than even SS does, but at least with SL there was a tiny bit of extra upper body and ab work and overall volume for the stupid amount of calories to be spent on.
>>76998024Something I see all the time here is nerds wayyyyyyyy overthinking every aspect of lifting to the extent that they never understand the most important thing:Doing hard things day in and day out is what changes your body, not KNOWLEDGE or tut or grip width or blahblahblahEvery anecdote about leg growth on SS or so is proof that hard shit works to change your bodyAs far as inserts are concerned, developing the overall size of those muscles will almost always fill in whatever gaps you're insecure about And when talking about frame, most "bad proportions" are fat distro, not skeletalThere's some variation but even the most unfortunate shoulder width will ALWAYS look better with delts and lats, with those 2 things actually skewing the perception of the range of frame ratios on more developed individuals As far as low test is concerned, adding fat, doing hard things and giving yourself responsibilities all increase your test naturally but sensitivity is what determines your body's response to training and also another reason why everyone should start with ss or sl (they force your body to figure it out)Tl; dr: all that shit is mad cope
>>76995718anti-squat and milk propaganda (not necessarily any one program)I wish I had found this shit back when I was a kid, first time in my life my arms grew
>>76998246If you're struggling with gains milk is some kind of hormonal magic that helps your body sort its shit out
>>76995718not OP but pic is originaly from japanese man i dont know his thought process under these drawings but something about going against the grain type of stuff his name is Namio Harukawa and makes femdom art
