Anyone here do a lot of isometrics? Wondering if I should put them in my routine since a lot of sources say they build strength very quickly, break plateaus, and build dense, hard muscle
>>37818788
If you're an intermediate to advanced lifter on Stength standards, adding any sort of isolation is going to break plateaus for you
>>37818975
what if on a beginner? is it better to do full body workouts (i.e. icf, SL, SS) rather than isolation?
>>37818994
Isolations can still help but they're kind of pointless. You're gonna see way more progress cleaning up your form and diet. When your deadlift and squat are both over 2~2.5 plate, start looking into core exercises, and start doing some bicep and shoulder isos when you get to 1.5 pl8 on your bench, but even those aren't super necessary to progress.

How did you feel the first time you met someone dramatically taller than you?
I felt like a genetic failure. The fact that the kid was 6'11" at only 16 just added salt to the wound.
>wow that guys tall
>>37818758
Yeah, sounds like the kid has thyroid problems and will die at 30
Didn't give a shit.
However once I saw a 2 meter girl on the bus and was fucking amazed.
Lifting noob here, post your dankest protein shake recipes
>low cal/carb extra points
Ill start.
2 scoops vanilla protein.
1 tbsp sugar-free instant vanilla pudding.
1/4 tsp cinnamon.
1/4 tsp vanilla extract.
1/2 tsp butter-flavor extract.
1 cup water (or low-fat milk)
1 handful ice.
>>37818652
I want to rub my throbbing tip on Arya's stubbly scalp while sipping my proton shake.
>>37818652
Protein shakes are something you chug or drink quickly. Save your spices for actual food.
>whey
>milk
>banana
Enjoy, faggot.
Went to Walgreens and got some bronkaid
Went to rite aid and got caffeine pills and a pill splitter.
I plan on following this diagram
What to expect ? Read a lot of threads on other sites just want some stories and shit from some bros
Don't take if you:
>have anxiety issues
>have sleeping issues
>have blood pressure issues
>have heart issues
>aren't cutting at a deficit lower than 500 calories
Otherwise follow the dosage plan to the letter, and you'll be fine. In all seriousness though, EC is totally unnecessary.
It gave me migranes whenever i was off the caffine. I had to stop cold turkey because it was just fucking my brain up. Dude just eat less or do cardio. Taking a bunch of pills to help you lose weight is not a good idea
>>37818526
>expect to have trouble sleeping on occasion
>expect it to work very well at making you not eat
>expect to feel depressed and emotional after a prolonged use
I miss this stack, the depression was too much for me to handle.
I have to go to the gym in less than 30 mins but I can't find the motivation

who here prays for gains?
>>37818418
i don't pray for anything because i'm not such a weak willed little faggot that i rely on some omnipotent force to live my life for me. religion is literally for betas and intellectually deficient people
tip your fedoras all you want, it's the truth
I do indirectly.
Before i eat to get that nourishment, before i lift to not get injured, and before i go to work to continue to provide for the last two.

I just remember that the only bad work is one that didn't happen.
If I really can't be arsed then I drink some coffee and drag my ass down to the gym, and just slug my way through it. Sometimes I'll snap out of it once I get warmed up and work hard, othertimes it'll be a pretty shitty work out.
But anything is better than nothing, and we can't go 100% all the time or we'll burn ourselves out. We gotta enjoy working out.
Has anyone here ever had an injury to the tendon on the Pec Minor that attaches to the corocoid process? I can feel when I dig deep down it is really painful there and i'm not sure exactly how to fix it.
On this photo, the red part is the corocoid process, and a tendon comes off of it onto your chest which is the pec minor. Ive never heard of a injury to it, I am not sure if its even an injury but it hurts for no reason.
