Dear /fit/ what can I do to work my chest without a bench. I tried dumbbell flyes but I couldn't feel a fucking thing, I checked form and it seems to be good but idk? Same with floor press, can't feel anything in my chest. Weighted pushups I can but I need something else y'know.
DYEL here who is too poor for gym (will join one soon once I get shit sorted out).
>>37666901
Pushups will work your chest as well as arms and stomach (if your body is straight, similar to the Plank position).
Remember, friend, Bruce Lee only ever did bodyweight exercises that you can do mostly at home or by building your own bars etc.
>>37666901
Try these, pulled straight from Google.

>>37667025
Not OP but also interested in doing bodyweight exercises
obviously I won't get any aesthethics or strengths like lifters but I'll be able to look better than most non-lifters if I actually dedicate myself to it and have good nutrition, right?
I ate 700 kcal too much today.
Kill me.
>>37666849
Go do some HIIT
>>37666888
this
>>37666888
Dayum you're right!
Hey fit, i am 130lb and I dead lifted for the first time 2 days ago. I did 4 sets of 8 from 135 to 170, i had someone watching my form as well. because of this my back has reached soreness levels beyond what I could have possibly imagined, any stretches or solutions to this?
You're putting too much pressure on your back by keeping it straight. Try rounding your back out, so it rests more on your abdominals.
>>37666851
dont do that breh
>>37666829
dont listen to that guy he's trolling you
You pulled 40 pounds over your weight on YOUR FIRST TIME DL'ING and you expected nothing to go wrong
gtfo you baiter
There are people on this board right now who lift for longer than 1 year already and can't bench lmao3pl8.
Whats your excuse?

I'd smash and tell the guy after, say she didn't mention she had a bf till after, that way you get it in and you technically helped a bro out, unless you know him in which case don't smash but Def snitch
Hoes ain't loyal
If you're aware that she's in a relationship it's generally a case of "do unto others as you wish done unto you", but I wouldn't say you're doing anything particularly bad, just being a bit of a dick. She's the one who is committing the infidelity.
If you're not aware, you've done nothing wrong at all and anyone who says otherwise is a fucking idiot. How are you supposed to vet every girl you meet?
If you know she has a bf and you smash, yeah i'd say it's wrong
many probably won't give a shit and do it anyway though
Just found out I've been doing bench press wrong for like a year...
I've been bringing it down to my collar bone, apparently it's supposed to go to just above your sternum?
Is it harder to do it properly (proper bar path)? If so how much harder? How much should I drop my weight by?
Drop the weight 100% on your neck
>>37666681
Thanks I'll try that next time
Just go to the gym, bench with just the bar with proper form, then keep adding weight until you feel it's a good working weight for you. Your post belongs in QTDDTOT.
So I'm trying to lose weight....yesterday i raped my body with lots of lifting and squats. I know I'm supposed have days where I rest my muscles. what cardio can I safely do today?
>>37666605
fap
then rest
>>37666605
The bike would be great
Go to Strength Theory or go to scoobys site and read up on cardio and lifting.
Basically low/no impact LISS cardio under 60 mins is not going to effect your gains be it strength or muscle.
Cardio kills gains is a meme, stop been a lazy fatty and get on the exercise bike everyday.
Is squatting atg a meme? Just to name a couple, mike o'hearn and simeon panda are quarter squatting scum and they have pretty big legs.
>>37666586
They are steroids abusers, so they get away with anything.
Just try it.
1 month quarter squat
1 month atg squat
And compare gains
Watch all of these:

>>37666586
just watched mike o'hearn on youtube and he's squatting below parallel. no idea what you're talking about
I recently finished a cut but im still not lean enough. When i should start a cut again?
>>37666580
I don't like...i don't like what he's doing to my dongers
immediately, cut until you reach planned body fat
Cut more
Alright /fit/ I'm miltiboarding from /b/ temporarily because I'm feeling like shit since I'm fat as fuck.
>Be me, 22 / 275 lb. / 5'11

>Don't want to contradict my (hopefully previous) fat choices with his active ones.
>Wife fat too

Show her the current fat hate thread and the pics in it, then she'll understand.
>>37666507
Without shoving shit in her face would be nice. Just wanting to talk her into it. She just had surgery and don't want to push more stress on her. Keep in mind, I actually love this woman being thatbshes my wife
>>37666498
Ask your wife why she wants you to literally die
Change your diet, stop making excuses, stop being a pussy ass bitch and man the fuck up you fatty
is weight trainig useless?
iv been doing cardio for a while and i noticed im gaining muscle as well, and its equally distributed.
whats the point in weight training if not just for sicc abs and all that bullshit.
in my opinion a person should be light and agile, but maintain power as well.
Cardio is good shit for burning fat. Probably you just lost that fat and revealed some of your muscles.
>implying that you are just a newboy, not b8
>>37666286
you're probably right OP, I mean you saw it happen right?
Just be yourself
you're also shaving off fat making your muscle more apparent. To be 'fit' is to do both, no only be able to bench press but to also be able to run more than block without dying.
Why do you lift ?
>pic related
>>37666283
4 jesus
At first because I wanted to change the way I looked.
Now because I like looking the way I do, I want to look even better, I enjoy the act of lifting itself, and increased attention from the opposite sex feels really good.
Absurdism
Good evening fellow fit friends, tonight I would like to bring to your attention the following video.

How do you feel about his reasoning and can you refute it?
Please share your thoughts.
Thank you :)
Holy shit a thread about veganism! And the OP doesn't even tell us what it's about.
sage sage sage
>>37666184
>hovered over the video link
>saw some hipster faggot and the word "vegan"
>mfw
>how do you can you tell the vegan in the room
>dont worry he'll let you know
>pill #1: you wake up tomorrow with the physique that you want but you CANNOT alter your face. You can adjust your height, pick what body fat % you want, and the shape of your muscles.
>pill #2: you wake up tomorrow and you're a male model and 6'2. BUT, you CANNOT get ripped/ottermode/etc. You'll only ever be skinny like a runway model
>>37666105
Will I also be strong as shit with pill #1?
>>37666105
Easy pill #1. Unless you're ugly it's no contest.
>tfw good looking
>tfw you can't get an easy lay with some uggos to get your rocks off because your mates will give you shit for it
I wish I was uglier...
Why do I always have to try harder to only sleep with girls as good looking as me to not get ripped on, it's not fair bros.
>also good looking
>break up with gf
>all the hot girls are taken already
fuck
>complains because good looking
might as well kill yourself
