can someone red pill me on the simple carbs vs complex carbs discussion, if read a lot of shit so far
pic related
What is it that you read so far OP?
>>36702654
its only bad because they contain only cals and no nutrition. if you just need calories then pasta and rice are fine
white rice is not "bad". It just means the parts of the grains that provide the fiber were removed, so its no longer "whole". If you get enough fiber, there's absolutely nothing unhealthy about white rice. Also too much fruit can be bad, because of the sugar. Certain fruits are healthier than others.
I got these rubber plates that smell pretty bad, any ideas how to get rid of the stench?
Besides pic related
I know what you mean it gives me a headache
I dont really think theres much you can do but wait, wasing them probably wouldn't do anything
>>36702559
Get new plates? Get car paint and spray it on maybe also, should seal it in.
>>36702597
Wouldn't that add weight?
Actually side point can I use spray paint in place of microplates
Alright /fit/,
I've started this routine, but on days 2 and 4, I go running.
I'm 18 and 155 lbs.
I've been eating healthy even before this routine. I've got some fat on my belly which I want to turn into some nice abs and get in better shape.
Will this work and when can I expect results?
I'm not even trolling, but that routine is fucking terrible. Is there a reason why you chose it, like you don't have the equipment to do anything else, or ... ?
I'll tell you your future, dude. You will see no gains. You'll have a better luck at getting abs by cleaning up your diet than this.
>>36702423
what is this shit?
OP here.
Since my workout seems like shit, what do?
Keep in mind, I have no equipment at home.

You need to realize that a PTs goal isn't go get you juicy as fuark as fast as possible but rather keep you paying as long as possible.
Regardless of whether you are doing machines or free weights, doing more that ~10 reps for a set with adequate weight will never get you anywhere, which is exactly where that guy wants you to be.
>>36702178
I didn't pay anything. He said he doesn't think I need to take his class.
This was all free.
>>36702207
You need to realize that old peoples goal isn't to help you but rather make you keeping them company as long as possible.

It pisses me off knowing that fat and ugly people I know have girlfriends and are getting laid while I'm still a virgin
Hey guys.
First time going to a music festival and don't know what to wear.
Should I wear a Tank Top and shorts or will that look too try-hard?
I'm still doing cut, so I'm not confident enough yet to go pic related.
>>36701959
wear a fuzzy pink skirt and big fur boots, and a nice neon pink wig all backcombed and teased.
>>36701959
Are guys like this interested in other men or women?
>>36701959
spirit hood and tank top
Do you feel like it's getting more difficult to find girls who aren't overweight or obese out there? I'm not even talking fitness gurus, just girls that aren't whales or """thick""".
>>36701758
I feel like it's more difficult for me to find girls out there in general.
I think it depends on where you live.
Depends really. I live in a college town so the girls I see are basically either hideous, or literally have better bodies than stuff I even see on the internet. I don't know why there's very little middle ground.
I really dont care about your opinion on specs-just give it to me cut and dry: adipower or rommaleos
>>36701745
they're both good
romaleos are wider through the foot if you have wide feet. adipowers are thinner.
>>36701745
romaleos

And why is it Stacie Tovar? Literally perfect woman and perfect physique, would snu snu/10
>>36701541
Ew. Not enough muscle or fat. Get that Auschwitz Survivor out of here.
>>36701531
Kek. I can pinpoint on a map where that pic was taken.
Is this watery, blue, bland liquid good for you?
I've heard that it isn't, but what are the facts?
>>36701435
i dont mind it, helps wash tablespoons of peanut butter down, as for health idk. i saw some milk commercial a few years ago that said one glass of skim milk a day helps promote fat burning but idk literally nothing else i've found confirmed it.
i'd consider the skim milk meme horseshit and just drink the real stuff, let housewives and fags whine over that shit
>>36701753
>and just drink the real stuff
That's even worse. Skimmed milk is recommended because it's lower in saturated fat. Whole milk isn't a good alternative.
Isn't it just milk watered down?
What's better for gaining muscle mass/strength, ICF 5x5 (3x a week with 3 days rest 1 day cardio) or doing a modified SL 5x5 where you do 3x8 compounds 3 times a week for 30-40 minutes, then do Biceps,triceps shoulders and back on "rest days" for 40-60 minutes and one day full rest?
Why would you ever do a routine created by Jason Blaha? He's a fucking nutcase.
>>36701461
so staying with my current shitty routine is better?
>>36701461
dont listen to this guy. ICF is a perfectly fine routine. I agree that Blaha himself is a conceited prick, but ICF isnt shit.
At what point can you start calling yourself a powerlifter?
I got up to 1/2/3/4 and used to say I was doing powerlifting.
Then I realized my form sucked on all of it so I cut the weights by half but at that point I had sense enough to stop saying I was doing powerlifting. So instead I just say I work out nowadays.
Is it when you start competing? What if you squat 100 kg and bench 70 kg in deadlift 140 in competition, are you a powerlifter then??
No one really cares what you call yourself.
>have you entered a powerlifting meet?
>if yes, you can tell normies you're a pl
>if no, you can still tell normies you're a pl theyr'e stupid as fuck lmao
>>36701297
>Is it when you start competing?
yes, that is the only yes/no metric involved. if you haven't competed in a drug tested fed like the usapl, you are not a powerlifter
>>36701297
It's when you become fat and pretentious
>Be Pacquaio
>Abs workout is 50 reps crunches, then immediately 50 reps of other abs exercises
>15x50 all in all with rest as needed
>It absolutely works both for looks and function
What would happen if you do this routine with, say, push ups? There are more than enough variations to hit 15 sets of, I dunno, 20?
Btw, Pacman's pushups suck ass.
That's one tiny motherfucker, is he like 4'10? I'd slap his shit.
>>36701261
You'd be off to cuckoo land in a few seconds.
>>36701155
You'd have a built chest and skinny everything else.
Do I have potential /fit/?
>>36701034
REEEE FUCKING IMAGE SIDEWAYS. WHY?
Take your fucking shirt off.
>>36701046
I'm literally a T-rex
>that unfit guy who walks in and does sets of only 5 reps for literally only 3 lifts
I seriously hope you guys don't do this
>>36700919
If you can do more than 3 compound lifts in one workout you aren't doing enough sets of them
