>implying strongman isn't the manliest form of lifting
Any of you phags to strongman training? I started few months ago, doing a program called Cube Method. I really like it so far, just hit 200kg farmer walk today, feels good man. Yoke carry is brutal too. Too bad no stones at my gym though.
There are no men on this board.
Just boys worrying about body fat percentage.

>you'll never be 210cm and 180Kg
why even live

I intend to compete in the under 200 pound catagory locally, when my shoulder heals and im back to normal strength
I'm bulking. It takes too long to eat.
I spend a solid 3+ hours per day just eating, that's not even scratching the surface of the iceberg that is preparing all that food.
How do I cut this down? Meal prep helps but honestly, not that much beyond reducing the amount of attention I have to pay making the food. Anyways I could do that if the process of eating it all didn't take as long.
Can I IF it and shove down dense calories all in one giant meal, or something like that?
what about the good old chicken dices with pasta
you get everything minus the veggies (not like you need them after all), doesn't take long to prepare (about 15-20 min) and you can eat it quick enough
just cook like 200g of pasta, slice in dices and fry about 250-300g of chicken, then mix everything
How TF do you spend more than 3 hours eating
If that number was with prep, I might understand, but even then it's on the high side.
Select more calorie-dense foods, prep more food at a time, snack inbetween on high-calorie snacks like cashews, use protein shakes to achieve your protein goals. Just watch your fats etc if you snack on a lot of nuts.
You shouldn't be spending more than 30 minutes a day eating that way, even if you're aiming for 3-4kCals.
Also, you can do something useful while eating, or at least something recreational.

Well I think that's part of it, 2 of the 3 meals I'm in front of my computer fucking around on /fit/ or watching netflix or something. And then it distracts me a bit and I eat slower.
But <30min a day for 3 meals? That's actually crazy
I don't get it, /fit/. This short woman lost 120 pounds. Why doesn't she have loose skin?
>>36817991
And no no surgery
Is it the diet that affects loose skin?
>>36817991
she probably lost the weight slowly

Any advice?
>>36817740
bump for interest. also is there any cost efficient way to train muay thai or any other martial art once a week? preferable on saturday.
I play in a soccer league twice a week and lift three times but I feel like being able to defend yourself is also important
>>36817740
Just started going with my wife to her gym. Get hand wraps and our own gloves.
>>36817815
There's a gym like 16 minutes where i live that does Muay Thai lessons and they seem pretty good. Luckily im a student so my summer is gonna be wasted by not doing any work and video games so i may go out and get a job and start going gym (Working out at home for now).
When should I train traps? On back days or shoulder days? I combine chest and back on one day and shoulders and arms on another. Which day should I throw traps into? It kind of works the shoulders and the back.
>>36817658
I train them on shoulders day, but I don't have any broscience to back up my choice
>>36817692
I also do traps on shoulder day. I do back and shoulder on the same day. Sure someone on here will spurge at me for that
>>36817658
The shoulders are the top of the back.
You could train shoulders on back day and chest and arms on chest day But it doesn't really matter.
>Starting Strength
What rep range for how many sets on dips and chinups?
3xF
If you get over ten, start progressing with weight at.
For example, add a weight so you can only do about 5 reps a set. Once you can do 8 reps a set, increase the weight so you can only do 5.
>>36817604
Assistance exercises are done for 3 sets of 10 reps, nigger did you even read SS?
>>36817644
No, I'm white.
Hey /fit/
I have a sizable imbalance in my muscles between the left and right side of my body. What can I do to fix it?
Pic related, my issue is worse than this.
>>36817407
You're right hand dominant, aren't you?
Just work out your left side more. Add a few reps.

Did 6 km in 30 minutes on uneven forest tracks today. How good/average/bad is it?
>>36817396
Currently sitting out my last year of track in high school, which sucks as much dick as you might imagine. Was looking to get my 800 time down to around 2:05 so that I could help us win conference. Unfortunately tendonitis currently has its 10-inch cock rammed up my asshole, so I can't do shit but sit around and hope I at least get healthy before summer conditioning starts for college.
Had a solid cross-country season though, with a PR of 17:43 for the 3-mile, which I never expected from myself.

How can water have zero calories if a calorie is defined as the energy needed to raise 1 gram of waters temp by 1 degree? This would mean that the same method of measuring the calories in any other substance would also indicate water has calories.
A calorie is the energy needed to exceed the heat capacity of water enough to raise the temperature by 1 degree. Water itself does not contain energy, but like all substances, it has a specific heat capacity.
>>36817141
>unironically being retarded
>>36817141
You are technically correct in the strictest sense water does have calories (a quantity of energy)
However since our bodies do not and cannot use water as a source of energy we say water has no calories.
Water is essential to life and all metabolic processes, but water itself is not an energy source.
So basically as a beginner the best programs are SS, SL and Greyskull.
Main differences? Somebody who tried more than one has any advice? Basically which do you think it's better and why.
They're all pretty similar.
SS has the advantage of coming with basically a bible for the lifts since it was intended for both athletes and for coaches to help teach the proper forms and lifting cues. The main drawbacks are that Power Cleans can be tricky for the beginner to learn properly, and it's considered more lower body intensive if you don't add in the suggested accessories (dips, and chins/pullups).
SL has you starting off with lower weight than the other routines due to the extra sets it demands (5x5 instead of 3x5 that the other routines...

PICK ONE.
DO IT FOR A FEW MONTHS UNTIL YOUR LIFTS ARE UP.
SWITCH TO TEXAS METHOD.
CONTINUE TO GROW AND GET STRONGER.
ONCE YOU REACH ADVANCED, RUN PEAKING PROGRAMS.
>>36817095
What's the best intermediate program?
Texas vs Madcow vs ????
I want to do Texas after SS but rarely see anyone post Texas program bodies. I always see PPL folks here
Protein. There's no fucking WAY I can get 180 protons a day. How the hell are you guys getting your body weight in grams each day?
Especially bcuz I'm cutting: 2500 maint, 500-1000 deficit. I eat oats in the morning. 1 protein shake throughout the day. And some meat in the evening. Also, I'm a broke college fag at the moment. I need cheap protein advice.
>inb4 eat your own cum roulette meme
>>36816834
you want all the best things. its not how it works. there's no holy grail of low calorie, cheap cost, high protein food. you are cutting and you are going to lose some muscle. it happens. get over it.
if your maint is 2500 you def dont need 180
>>36816834
chicken breast you can get for 2 bucks/1 lb/100 protons roughly. pretty cheap.
I've never worked out in my life or been to a gym, but for reasons I'm not going into, I have to work out. I was given the schedule of:
Mondays: Upper Body
Tuesday: Core strength
Wednesday: Upper Body
Thursday: Core Strength
Friday: Upper Body
Saturday: Rest
Sunday: Cardio
Slight problem, I have no idea what any of that means, I was told for upper body to do pushups and pullups, but I can't do either of those and don't really know how to.
As for Core Strength, it beats me as what that means or what I should do.
As for terms...
