What biohacks have people been on?
Interested specifically in brain hacks like Modafinil or diet hacks like Bullet Diet or Soylent.
Weight loss plateaued for me at 260 and I suffer from massive daytime fatigue at work (webdev), so I'm researching ways to improve.
>>37884881
>massive daytime fatigue
this is your primary problem, you need to fix your sleep hygiene first and foremost. once you get your energy level up, your activity level goes up, and you can put more effort into meal planning and cooking. there are loads of resources online about sleep hygiene, but I'd recommend getting tested for apnea first, especially since you are overweight
>>37884909
Have been tested already, negative for apnea.
Additionally, I am hypothyroid and am on meds for that. Should also note that I've been on restricted calorie (1500-1800/day) paleo-esque diet for two months and have only lost 8#, with my plateau being the last two weeks, and the afternoon "fuzz" becoming more intense after the plateau.
>>37885011
~1lb/week is pretty good tbqph family. just keep it up.
Modafinil is pretty good at what it does, providing wakefulness, and allowing you to focus. You need to choose what to focus on though, if you decide to post on an Azerbaijani charcoal burning newsletter, then you'll be shitposting all day long.
Been doing 10 rep sets for 9 months now and think I'm starting to plateau. Should I lower the reps and increase the weight?

People don't want to take the time to count calories. Fucking ree

>i cant gain weight!
>muh genetics!
What do they both have in common? They don't take five minutes out of their days to write down calories and grams of protein per day (IE, the bare minimum)
>gained 15kg so far
Fuck you buddy, I do eat enough
Alright, fatass /k/ommando in for a visit, want to ask a question.

Can someone explain to me what's going on? Also it should be noted that I have cut out all sugar in my drinks. My only hypothesis is that between sweeteners and coffee I am giving...

>>37884574
It most likely is the sweeteners, they can wreck your shot
>>37884574
Coffee is a natural laxative
>>37884574
Its probably a combination of the sweetener, coffee, and drastic change in diet. I've been on an extreme cut (partly unintentional I just have a really shitty eating habit) and I still get pure liquid shits sometime. It also depends on what you're eating and how much fiber you're getting as well.
LISTEN HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
how to grow from solid 5'10" to solid 6'3", if:
1. i am 21 year old
2. i stopped growing at age of 15-16
thnx bois!
I need to gain 5 inches.
God help please
reach for the ceiling and whisper "grow, grow, grow"
Read the sticky and starting strength and then suck rippetoe's dick.
Oi lads,
What's the general consensus on sugar when bulking?
Recovering skelly here
Am having a hard time clean bulking (not really gaining any proper weight) and throwing in some sugary food would definetly help.
Good idea or will it just make me fat and diabetic?
May as well munch on some nuts or something if it is not okay
sugar is bad for you. drink some milk
sugar makes you fat, but fuller
BUT
if you were able to eat as much calories in protein instead of carb/sugar, then you will be better off doing so for maximum muscle gains.
do you even, OP?

Will 5-10 pushups a day have any effect on buildning muscles and making me look more muscular?
>>37884357
No
Do 5 sets till failure. Even then the gains will be minimal
>>37884357
Yes if it's more than 10, desu bro 10 is weak. Try starting on 25 and do it 3-4 times a day, and increase the amount over time.
What eat?
ice cream
pizza or ice cream

I love this meme.
I thought the whole fedora meme was dead on /fit/ and it made me very sad inside.
growing up with apes he would surely be more muscular.... he looks like he's been lifting one year max
He's probably a vegan
They can't put on muscle

>wanna do chest dips so badly
>can't
>dip bars too wide for me
>inb4 ribcagelet
>inb4 armlet
Is there a way to do dips without dip bars or at least a substitute exercise?
>>37883786
Do them with two treadmills. You can adjust distance by pulling them close.
>>37883786
2 chairs, weight them down, do dips in between
You won't be able to do weighted ones in such ghetto setup but that's something.
Are dumbbell fly's really that bad
I hope not they are my favorite
I do them everyday
bad for what? they're good for chest isolation, but it's still just an assistance exercise.
>>37883789
I saw on one of these threads that fly's can really fuck your shoulders up and make you snap some shit
Why do i need fish oil and multivitamin supplementation?
I have been only taking whey and creatine supplements until now.
I wouldn't even recommend the creatine.
I know a lot of guys are jizzing all over themselves about supplements like fish oil and stuff, but none of it is regulated, FDA approved, or even empirically demonstrated to help. Even if it does help, the deficits are going to be different from person to person.
Five years ago my dad swore by ginseng tablets. He insisted they helped his memory and all this other crap. Then I went to college and saw tons of studies proven the affects to be nothing more than placebo.
Maybe take Curcumin if you have an inflamed elbow or something, but most supplements are junk (with the exception of protein supps).
>>37884138
b12 is definitely not "junk"
>>37884138
Isn't creatine proven to be effective for improving strength/muscle size? Even if not, why not take it for the placebo? Monohydrate is too cheap not to take.
