I love lifting and shit but I don't want to die when I'm 55 cause my heart can't sustain juicy amounts of muscle mass.

Oh gee if only there was some way you could work out your heart muscles too...
>>
>>37655910
How do you make cardio not boring? I swear to god it makes me want to fucking kill myself.

>>37655942
HIIT is pretty fun, because it's hard and you are motivated to get better at it. Also, it's short.
>>
>>37655901

any kind of weigth lifting causes damage to the heart.

anaerobic training causes cardiac cell death. it only happens to a small degree every session, but builds up over a lifetime. this is why bbers alwasy die young.

>>37655901
Heart's giving out in people results from the heart having a greater resistance to push against over a prolonged period of time.

be sub ~200
don't be fat
dont eat artery clogging shit every day
do some basic cardio
drink tea

do these things and you wont die of cardiovascular failure unless you're like 80+

It's this fucking question again.

You most likely won't be able to put up more than 90-95 kg worth of lean (read ~8% bf) mass natty, provided you are of average height i.e. ~6 feet.
Hell, even 90-95 is pretty damn generous -- you will probably peak at around 85, and this is considered a normal mass for people of that height.

tl;dr stop being a bitch and just enjoy the process, you will be a lot healthier than both, DYELs and pro's

95kg 8% at 6' not a chance unless your shoulders are 20"+ and you have 8"+ wrists
For most people 85 would be maxing out

>>37656209
Probably not kidding, just a fucking retard
Body builders die early because of all the chemicals not intended for human consumption that they inject and swallow

lol, says who? the interent? ahah!

HIIT is useless for athletes. the adaptaions you get from it arent worth anything, and it actually impairs sports specific skills. you know like if you're an actual competing athlete you actualy have to be good at your sport!!

haha lol @ loser /fitizens whove never acheived anything in sports ever.
