I was about to spend $20 on adjustable ankle weights today but then I started reading up on them and apparently they put joints at risk over time. What does /fit/ think about them and has anyone here ever used them?
I was thinking about wearing them at work where I spend anywhere from 6-12 hours walking with an average of 20 minutes sitting, but I don't want to fuck my knees, either.
Don't do that.
All they do is put strain on your joints, no reason to wear them
>>37731800
They will hurt your joints, do not use or buy them.
Reward yourself after.
Two examples here.
>hottub and pool at gym I go too. After I workout I swim a bit and lay in the hottub. A nice reward
>Only smoke weed after working out hence I get excited to workout because I am gonna smoke after. Only do this 30% of the time though
Case solved faggots

>he doesn't enjoy the pure pleasure of lifting heavy things
not gonna make it
>>37731551
Smoking before lifting makes for a pretty good workout. Sometimes
>>37731551
The workout is the reward. Why do you need other incentives?
>smoking weed

can i press in the squat rack there?
>>37731458
I don't give a fuck, and we have no squat rack. Just a smith machine. I'm too tall to press in it too.

Does lifting make up for being an indian?
Hey look guys...I posted it again!!!
>>37731309
what's wrong with being indian?
>>37731309
Only if you shower before you lift.
is there any difference between dumbell and barbell ohp? barbell hurts my shoulders for some reason and i can lift more doing dumbells
>BB OHP hurts shoulders
That's because you're flaring your elbows or have shitty muscle balance, OP
>>37731311
lat raises hurt them too, ive seen a bunch of form vids on both so i think im doing it ok
>>37731311
or he could have a hooked acromion. ohp isn't for everyone. joe defranco doesn't do them.
Anyone else feel like going to the gym impacts posture negatively? I feel tired from holding a "correct" posture and often find myself inadvertedly in a bad posture. Does this have something to do with the effort one does at the gym lifting shit and whatnot ?
>>37731568
cool
>>37731277
Do more rows
Bench press less

Hey /fit/ how often do you guys train your forarms a week? Planning on integrating some support, crush, and pinch strenght training into the ICF routine
>>37731153
I used to isolate them once a week but after a few weeks of reverse curls i hurt my wrist and it never recovered even years later so i rely on heavy deadlifts to work them.
>>37731382
Shit sounds fucking terrible bro any tips to avoid that happening i was planning on 3-4 times on David Horne's beginners routine
>>37731153
everyday

hey bros
just finished my chemo round and noticed that all my gains are fucking gone.
also had cravings cuz fuck chemo and gained like 30 lb
want to hit gym and start lifting with my gym bros again but my doctor keeps telling me to btfo and rest
what should i do? i cant stand my current proportions. i also researched some posts on bodybuilding which said that lifting + whey make your immune system stronger, killing tumors
>>37730679
if you feel like you can handle it, then stop being a bitch and do it, your doctor isn't gonna arrest you for working out
listen to your doctor.
>>37730679
Keep lifting. Nothing bad will happen.
How can I get rid of this?
Feels bad finally getting fit but still ashamed to rock tank tops because of those.
>>37730660
no one should be wearing tank tops
>>37730671
This is why we can't have nice things.
>>37730660
bump, I have this shit too and it fucking sucks ass.
