So, a few weeks ago one of these appeared on the base of my right ring finger. Most of the time it doesn't hurt, but sometimes when gripping the bar for a pull movement, the pressure on it is uncomfortable, or causes some pain.
Did a little research on it, sometimes it will disappear by itself, so I plan to wait a bit. If it really starts to hurt, or grow, I'm going to a doctor.
Anyone have any experience with these? It seems most of the time they appear on the wrist, which seems to be even worse. Also, lifting gloves could help in my case? I guess I'll try using.
Pic related, my cyst is just like the one on finger, on the palm side of the hand.
Had a dorsal wrist ganglion cyst on my left wrist from age 15 to 23. The fucker caused me pain and limited my range of motion. One day I finally worked up the nerve to have someone bust it with a heavy book.
It was the most glorious feeling after it ruptured and drained having a full range of motion and no pain after almost 10 years. That was a couple years ago and it hasnt returned.
>TLDR: if it becomes a problem, smash that fucker.
These things are very dangerous. I was lucky not to lose my hand and get the surgery done. The worst case scenario is it detaches from where it's at and travels up your bloodstream and causes heart problems. I suggest you go to a doctor asap because you can potentially die.

I had one on my wrist a few years ago. Went to a doctor and they drained the fluid with a syringe. Then it started to come back and I kept whacking it on stuff and it went away.
Obviously, be safe if you are going to whack it into stuff.

4chan made me a better person imo
maybe you should take this place less seriously
After 6 years i still just a lurker, why argue if their opinions doesn't change? Just take it easy man.
It's an outlet for dickheads and retards, so treat it as such and stop being so obsessively compulsive about "correcting" other's opinions you fucking mongoloid

You should only ever compare your present self to your past self in order to improve you future self.
Whether you want to or not, you're gonna go to the bucks at one point in your life.

First 5 weeks of lifting just finished, 150 squat x 5 and 205 deadlift for 5 reps
Feels comfy.

Stats?
After this week is over I'll have been lifting for 217 weeks non-stop.
For some reason I actually feel more motivated now-days than I ever have, probably because I actually something to lose now.

Assuming you don't give a fuck about your looks, what is the ideal body fat % for optimum health?
Also, for optimum health, how often should you lift/exercise/rest?
>>37836025
10-18% bf.
3-4 times a week.
>>37836025
looks = health, anon
12-14%
Relevant question, I'm actually interested in knowing at which point building muscle becomes 'pointless' i.e. reaches the point of diminishing returns.
I heard that even the AMA recommends lifting weights, surprisingly, twice a week, along with cardio another three times a week.
This is supposedly enough to reduce your chances of developing 90% of illnesses that kill most of the sedentary population, but doing more doesn't really have much of an effect because it's a negligible improvement when compared to the chances of acquiring a genetic...

On db shoulder press, should shoulder blades be kept back like on bench press?
Don't do DB shoulder press, just do BB shoulder press and lateral raises. Using heavy dumbbells is stupid.
>>37835738
Not as much or you'll fuck your shit up
>>37835821
I somewhat agree
>>37835821
>Don't do DB shoulder press, just do BB shoulder press and lateral raises. Using heavy dumbbells is stupid.
I have a shoulder injury so at the very least I'm getting to a reasonable strength on dumbbells before I go with barbell
>>37835831
How much then? Because I pinched them back pretty hard and I think I did it too much
Should it be very subtle?
Today was my first day without a cofee in the morning and i feel like shit.
I cant understand whats going on around me and i want to just fucking lay on the ground and sleep.
What do i do /fit/ overlords
>>37835694
drug withdrawal
you can just wait it out as your adenosine receptors downregulate or you could try slowly reducing your caffeine intake, much like a heroin addict on methadone
>>37835731
This.
Best way to avoid addiction is to take caffeine once a week only when needed.
Sounds strange, I can go from drinking 10 cups a day to 0 without much of a hassle. Sure you are slightly more tired the first day but it's not that harsh. I usually take a break from coffee for a week or so but always ending up going back eventually because I don't see any negative effects using it.
Rate my homemade dips bar

>>37835681
Fuck off. This is a retarded meme. Dips are top tier for your chest, tris and delts.
>>37835656
Should have had them at an angle so they form a V shape allowing you to have different points of the bar give you different grip width. If youve measured what grip with feels optimal and used this then nice work. If not i hope you dont fuck anything up
