Should I do cardio before or after lifting?
After. Don't wanna be too fatigued lifting heavy ass weights.

>not squatting on the treadmill
>>35065774
I sometimes do a 10km run before hitting the gym
unless you do legs or are weak you wont be fatigued
you might even feel stronger because its a hell of a warm up

Hey /fit/
I've been lifting on and off for about 5 years and I struggle ALOT with motivation, the past few years have been shitty, gained weight, one of my brothers has been in and out of jail, Dad pissed of somewhere, another of my brohers died, my girlfriend dumped me, I lost my job and I have been depressed for 1 year now.
So I'm looking for motivation to go back to the gym and for motivation to actually keep me going there.
If you got any helpfull advice /fit/ I'm all ears.
>>35065745
Just think of the favor you are doing for yourself.
>>35065745
If you come to /fit/ to fill the void of any self generated motivation you're not gonna make it. You're like that slutty whores who tries to fill the internal void of self esteem by taking as ma.y cocks as possible. If it doesnt come from within, you're not gonna make it.
>>35065745
Just think if you added "stopped working out and became an unfit piece of shit" to that list of bad just you just typed up. You would feel even worse. At least working out is something that you're still able to do.
>Hey Anon, you exercise, right?
>Why don't you come run a marathon with us, show us your great stamina?

"m..muh gainz.."
No way 155.5 could even run a mile, fucking landwhale
Running girls are the lowest form of fit girls. They lose their tits and ass, don't build any muscle, and age at triple the rate of normal humans because of constant sun exposure.
Has becoming fit helped you with the ladies?
Share success/mirin stories.
No. I need to eat quite a bit to keep up my lifting schedule, which means a slightly higher bf% than skellymode, which means my face looks slightly puffier/shittier even though my body looks much better.
Basically my face looked better when I was a DYEL, and since I used to pull more I can only assume that face>body.
>>35065722
>he believed the bulk/cut meme
you don't need to bulk to gain muscle
>>35065728
It's not about billing, it's about having the energy to keep up my lifting schedule. If I don't have at least a small caloric surplus I'm useless in the gym.
You're right about the meme though, no need to get truly fat to lift.
How to achieve this physique?

How about lifting?
Why am I so bad at deadlift? I started it 2 months ago, at about 85kg x5 due to shitty grip. Now I do about 90kgx4, and my grip isn't much better. I can squat more than that. I'm bulking, have been for a while, and all my lifts are increasing relatively quick except my deadlift.
>>35065536
If your grip is the problem, use chalk. What are your stats btw?
After carefully analysis i have come to the conclusion there might be a problem with your grip being the limiting factor. Whatever you do, do not strengthen your grip
EAT MORE
Need help BAD!!!
I have tendinosis in my patella knee that is healing currently, and we just found out that I have 3 sets of tendinitis in my shoulder, biceps tendon long/short and supraspinatus. Anti-inflammatory meds like advil could help with this but it has been proven to work against tendinosis (my knee). So many studies say it hault the healing of the knee and could potentially harm it. I dont know what to fricken do...
"Studies show that NSAIDs can actually impede the healing process, which is the last thing needed with tendinosis. [17] Long-term use...

Let's talk appetite suppressants.
What do you use? How does it work? What side effects does it cause? Is it legal? Is it cheap? What kind of results can one expect?
I am acquainted with nicotine, caffeine and modafinil. I fully believe that appetite suppressant are a saner way than thermogenics and DNP to lose weight.
Ps : Who the fuck takes these stock images and who the fuck wants to be a model for them?
I use this shit called water and willpower. The double dubs.
>>35065347
>water
I already drink about a gallon a day
>willpower
Eh
If I wanted the old "Man up" advice I would have asked normies. I need supplement junkies.
Caffeine works a bit too well for me. It happens quite often that the day passes and by the evening I realise I had not eaten a single bite.
It goes without saying that I'm a skeleton and avoid drinking coffee for this reason.
How can i reach greek philosopher mode?
you're going to change your life. your brain does not like change, your body does not like change; this will not be fun.
write your thoughts down everyday. essentially, this will be private shitposting. it will seem dumb, but do it.
read every day. and this will not include internet bullshit, read fucking books.
work out (duh)
you must set goals. do no be content with reading, writing, and lifting. set yourself out to perform actual tasks, such as learning a new skill or building something. work to achieve these goals. write your accounts of...

We have access to better equipment now. No longer do you have to carry around a milking cow that you gradually feed up for progressive resistance. That said Milo got an excellent education in lifting and nutrition from this so I wouldn't say it's better in all ways, just most of us can keep a barbell easier than a cow.

Do you currently or have you had a personal trainer and what were your reasons for one? Just to get motivation or maybe due to anxiety reasons and need someone to talk to and it's cheaper than therapy?
Tell us about your Personal Trainer.
>>35065092
Don't waste your money. If you really need someone to hold your hand while you work out get a gym buddy.
>>35065113
What if you have no friends though?
>>35065170
Seriously? You in a gym with other people. Just make some.
W... will I ever make it?
>that feel when you perma bulk and stay skelly
Eat more you fucking skeleton.
Fatties have it so much harder shedding weight, they are already better than you, since they could at least bulk well.
Now fuck off and drink a banana turmix with peanut butter.
>>35064867
You're not bulking hard enough. You have to eat until it hurts then keep eating.
If you're not fighting back unmanly tears as you force feed yourself another slice of pizza, you're doing it wrong.

T-thanks
As this guy, 5'9 149lbs. I had surgery 2 months ago and ill be ready to start lifting again soon but im incredibly week. I have quite the gut now too unfortunately and it's making me insecure. Looking at these pictures do you guys think I should cut or bulk? I still can't lift yet heavily because i have 3 tendinitis's in my shoulder and a tendinosis in my knee but im getting better hopefully. Just need advice on what I should do. Was thinking about cutting but I dont wana lose the remaining small amount of muscle I have left lol
Fix posture. Looks like you have a crazy sway back which brings out your gut more. Just lift what you can, eat and do cardio. If you're already weak definitely don't try and lose weight.
Are you in your sister,girlfriends or moms room or something?
Is that your crossdressing den?
>>35064801
So if I am weak I shouldnt try to lose weight? Any reason why that is?
