Who /mischief/ here?
>Only person in the gym
>Start curling in the squat rack because I can
>I'm vegan
>i spit into my family's nonvegan food
Curls in the squat rack are actually the shit. The bar you start with is already 45lbs and you can increase weight better each work out. Those straight bars are 10lb jumps and a curl bar is a jangly fuck that needs clips

This. Literally the only thing I don't do in the squat rack are squats
What's a healthy substitute for sugar that I can add to my tea/coffee to make it sweet?
honey?
honey is good with tea, always drink coffee with nothing added tho
Honey is just a high concentration of sugar
Just drink your coffee with sugar its no big deal
name a shit exercise only not very smart people (voluntarily) perform, and a similar exercise that's actually good
examples:
pleb - push ups
patrician - dips
pleb - long distance running
patrician - sprinting
pleb - shrug
patrician - clean high pull
Pleb: Deadlift

Good luck finding a gym in Greece equipped with a lifting platform

Pleb: OP
Patrician: Not OP
This not a before picture.
This is not an after picture.
This just happens to be what my body looks like on a random Tuesday in December of 2015 — it's a LIFE picture.
This is a body that loves protein and vegetables and queso and ice cream.
This is a body that loves bent presses and pull-ups and deadlifts and sleep.
This is a body that has been abused with fast food and late nights and stress.
This is a body that has been pushed to the brink of leanness in figure competitions and maximum strength in powerlifting meets.
This is a body that begged for mercy when it was diagnosed with Hashimoto's and PCOS.
This is a body that has been called:
- too fat
- too thin
- too masculine
- too strong
- too weak
- too big
- too skinny
...all within the same week.
This body has been publicly evaluated, judged, and criticized, and those judgments have been used to determine my level of skill as a coach and a trainer, and my worth as a person, both positively and negatively.
Some people say they would "kill to have this body."
Others say they would "kill themselves if they had this body."
(Yes, unfortunately that's actually a thing humans say to one another.)
This is a body that I spent too much time, energy, and mental space wishing would look differently.
And today?
Today this is a body that is loved, adored, and cherished by the only person whose opinion matters — ME.
This is the first year in as long as I can remember that I have made NO resolutions to change the way my body looks.
This is a kind of freedom I didn’t think I’d ever experience, and it feels really, really good.

Wow so many words dedicated to yourself good job real nice nobody gives a shit
>>35664366
So you finally grew up and became an adult? Is that what you are trying to say?
>>35664366
I'm not too sure where you're going with that but I'd tap the gril in that photo.
Will this increase gains /fit/ or did I just waste money?
>>35664261
It won't increase gains, but vitamins, calcium, and omega 3s aren't really a waste of money.
keep the vitamin d, throw the rest away.

Ofcourse those will make you aesthetic and strong! Good purchases goyim!
How do you start off at a gym if you know know one else that lifts and you don't know how to use the equipment properly/safely and also you you have huge autism?
Go when it opens so you can locate the squat rack and get some practice before anyone else wants to use it
>>35664242
get a training program so you know what to do when you're there
watch some proper training vids on youtube
get in there
start lifting shit. you don't have to talk to anyone.
>>35664260
but what if it's always open because it's a 24/7 gym?
I'm 62 kg and I can squat 80 kg
Is this impressive
Please respond
>>35664238
what's that in proper wait mesurements
nah brah
Should I do 3x10 or 5x10 reps? Does it even matter?
>>35664235
5x10 will make you bigger.
3x10 will take up less of your workout.
4x10

Why is literally everyone I know injured in some way that prevents them from lifting? Whenever I do get someone in the gym all I hear is
> I can't do this because of my shoulder, I can't do that because of my hip, I can't do that because of my ankle
These are 20somethings and literally can't/won't do any of the big 4. Anyone else have to deal with this shit?
>>35664226
Because fuck you, that's why.
>>35664308
Honestly it disgusts me. If you're young and just accept a minor injury as permanent then why even live, you're obviously not putting in any effort.
>>35664226
I can't wait until you get your inevitable injury and realise how retarded you sound. You probably don't even deadlift above 4 plates.
No thread dedicated to the god of all cardio? Swimming thread! Share routines, ask questions, post pictures of swimsuit bitches, etc.
My 50 Free is trash but I think my stroke is alright. Can you guys suggest the number 1 thing to improve on my stroke to get my speed up.
>>35665616
probably your breathing. You should only be breathing once, maybe twice for your 50 free. What's your time? That'll help me figure out what level you are at.
>>35665616
How is it trash if your stroke is alright? The key to swimming fast is having good technique.
Hey fit, fatass here.
I have a problem with eating, and don't know how to control myself. I noticed while running yesterday that my knees hurt. So I weighed myself and looked up my BMI, and found out I recently crossed the threshold for Obesity as my BMI is 30 exactly.
I'm asking you because this isn't exactly covered in the sticky. I'm not drowning myself in soda, chips, and candy. I can't afford that. I just eat too fucking much.
The simple answer is obviously to just eat less. I have issues though. I know I can't be the...
Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
Soda, chips and candy aren't filling, which is how you can eat so much and still be hungry. Replace those with fiber, fat, and protein filled foods and it should help a bit.
>>35664095
Dude, I'm not even reading that. Just eat less. There's literally nothing more to it. Oh, you're still hungry? Well congratu-fucking-lations, you're dieting to lose weight. If you actually want to lose the weight, you will. If not, then you'll stay where you are, if not, worse.

No goal body thread?
C'maan guise!
Aiming to max the thread out
manlet goals, but nice proportions
If you could magically and instantly become strong and aesthetic as fuck, would you still lift?
Yes. I'd go to the gym to impress people
no lol
inb4 faggots come in and say "yeah of course i would its so many and im sooo cool and manly for doing it"
theyre faggots trying to look cool on the internet
this is no question
inb4 one of said faggots replies with the dumbest shit excuse youve ever read, or tries to play it down
ahahahaha
Yes
Because I have no friends and lifting in the gym is the only time I actually "go out"
Submit your fat hate here.
i submitted my dick up your mother's asshole last night lmao faggot
>>35663851
Fatty detected
and there is no solution for it. i've been on finasteride for 3 years and switched to dutasteride. it doesnt seem to help much. transplants? will only work when you have managed to stop your hairloss with medication and have plenty of donor hair on the back.
I'm really fucked
even dut isn't working for you? that's rough mate
i've been on fin for about a year and it seems to have stopped any further loss
just shave it and move on.. the only people who never get over it are the people still clinging on to their last few pathetic strands of hair and who never had the balls to shave it
>>35663685
>just shave it and move on
what does this even mean?
I look like a model with hair on, but i know i'll get completely bald in about 3 years. I can choose to be bald and skinnyfat or bald and /fit/. Do the same choice, OP. Let your hair fall like you won't, and say ''So be it''. There are handsome bald men out there, you can also be one of those.
