I'm new to /fit/
Mainly here for a question and advice.
I was at muscle beach last month and my friends asked me if I could climb the rope. (Note I'm basically out of shape but I did judo and wrestling for 16 years.)
I was able to do it no problem without using my feet. And that motivated me to start to get back into shape. So I've be jogging and climbing the ropes every other day.
I feel like it's not enough anymore and I have been checking into weighted vests. Are they good? Bad things about them? How hard would climbing ropes be with the...

If you are running/skipping with them say bye bye to your knees

rope climbing isnt even hard if you know how to do a j-hook faggot
They're not any good.
You want weighted exercise to be short and intense not long and drawn out.
I unfortunately made the mistake of buying a weight vest a few years ago, so im not just disregarding it without any prior experience or knowledge (like most people on 4chan)
Are chin ups a good ab exercise?
The day after doing back I would always have sore abs. I isolated the exercise that was causing it and found out it was... weighted chin-ups.
I was thinking about incorporating ab exercises into my routine, but are chin-ups enough?

>inb4 le squats/deadlifts maymay
That shit doesn't get my abs sore desu familia. Plus I did SS for like 8 months and it did nothing for my abs.

Deadlifts and squats force you to push your chest up, abs pull it down. OHP is what trains abs but you get used to it so you won't be sore. Weighted chins with a dumbbell between feet is a sick way to train abs without wasting time, try it senpai.

No, chinups aren't enough
Try some hanging leg raises since youre already hanging from there
What are some tasty ways to cut down on the amount of carbs I eat?
I've had the idea of making sandwiches with lettuce instead of bread, but I'm looking for other ideas.

Lol!
Lifting makes you attractive to women.
Women are attractive to men by default, a skinnyfat beta bitch is attractive to nobody.

I just googled that guy and his body is about what you can expect from 3 years of lifting natty.
What does /fit/ think of coconut oil? Some people at my workplace keep praising it as some magic elixir that can do all the things.
One guy said he's has severe acne all his life and after he started cleaning his face using coconut oil, he hasn't had a new breakout since.
Another guy said his roommate does everything with coconut oil. He cooks with his, brushes his teeth with it, drinks his tea with it, etc.
Thoughts? Experiences?
Personal preference . I know people use it for various purposes. Hair, skin, food etc. Honestly it's a bit overrated for me. Like every other food fad.
I like it for food though. Taste wise cooking with it just makes the food so much better . I'm cutting though so I only use it when I have calories to spare

I cook with it. Haven't tried any of that other magic elixir shit though. Wouldn't smear it on my scalp unless I was 100% sure it wouldn't be an asinine thing to do.
The benefits are extremely overstated but it's not bad as a fat source.
