I'm on the job hunt right now. I'm in pretty good shape (6'1, 200lbs, broad shoulders, 500lb deadlift, do cardio and BJJ)
I've been interviewing places and a lot of potential employers always make comments on my physique
>wow anon you've got broad shoulders did you play football?
>'No i just lift and exercise to stay in shape during my free time'
I know my stats don't make me 'big and bulky' by any means but I'm starting to wonder if being...

I think you are being autistic
yeah but do you really want to work at a place where you'll get shat on by insecure skinnyfats? if they discriminate against you during the hiring process for being fit, they'll sure as hell discriminate against you for being fit while you work there

>do you really want to work at a place where you'll get shat on by insecure skinnyfats?
No. But I'm trying to get a job in tech. That industry is dominated by insecure skinnyfats. DESU I'd argue the vast majority of established companies are run by insecure skinnyfats..
I need help, /fit/. My OHP isn't improving fast enough.

skelly here
your bench and squat is more than mine
but i ohp more than you
how is this possible?
Stop being a bitch
eat more, do lots of volume, do plenty of shoulder accessories. OHP is probably the hardest lift to progress on.

What exactly is the difference between muscles worked in the Chin-up vs the Pendlay row?
Also on my intensity day in TM should I Deadlift before I Row or the other way around? Could one possibly fail a Deadlift due to an exhausted upper back?
>>36631101
If you're gonna max/repmax on deadlifts do them first. Heavy deadlifts are not going to be fun if you've already tired out yourself from rows

My father has always been pretty overweight, but this being eastern europe, it is common for people of all ages to be flabby af and not be frowned upon. But recently he's gotten out of hand and started constantly pigging out on every piece of food he lays eyes on. It's as if his stomach turned into an unsatiable abyss.
I tried fatshaming him to the point that we've gotten into incredibly nasty arguments, even told him that if...

That fucking sucks, familia. My dad was like that right until his triple bypass, and from what I've seen I think there's just a part of them that wants to die. Has something happened that could have made him suddenly pig out like this? Spend some time with him doing whatever he might like to do, I don't fucking know, see what's going on if you don't already know and see if you can do anything to help out.
Either way, he's not going to want to listen to the advice of someone who...

New thread
reposting from last thread because of no responses.
/fit/, I'm kinda worried about my back. I fucked it up Wednesday doing some housework (specifically hacksawing stuff), now a spot on my back has been really uncomfortable the last few days. Even when I'm just standing up for a few hours it doesn't feel good.
Do I need to lay off back exercises until it feels better? It seems like it's not healing.
>>36626110
Yes. Do workouts that don't bother it.
I have a potent massager and a massage chair. Are these better for me than a foam roller or are those really that magical?
>>36626499
>Yes. Do workouts that don't bother it.
That's what I was afraid of. I guess I'll just focus on exercises that don't use my back.
