Anyone ever get one of these? I'll be heading to the doctors in a week or so because of a persisting ache I get in my lower right abdomen, right next to the obliques. I hope I don't have one, and its just a strain or something, cuz i see no bulge. I'm gonna keep lifting until I get a surgery if it is one.
yep, 2 yrs ago had a bilateral inguinal hernia repair. it was done laparoscopically w mesh.
if u have to get a hernia repaired i would HIGHLY advise u do as much research as u can regarding the mesh. if i had to do it over again i wouldn't get the mesh. my left side has hurt since the day of the procedure. have seen a pain management specialists, had a nerve block, fucker still hurts. something the surgeon conveniently won't tell u is that it's fairly easy to put in, as a lot of surgeons can do it, but it's extremely difficult to take out it there's...

Just recently got tested an doc said I have a loose inguinal opening which might or might not turns into actual hernia. He told me to continue to live my life as it was and just go easy on the weightlifting. He also told me to not go under any surgical operation. I'm not so sure about the last one - I can't do pullups, squats, deads, rows...Pretty much the base of my workouts. I know I can start lifting heavy again if this shit get fixed...

That's like the opposite of a tooth implant where they tell you failure rate is like 3-5% but it's really like not even 1%
It depends on the research p much
Stare at the red dot for 30 seconds, look at a wall (lights on), and blink rapidly. Zee zee will appear in front of you and you will be granted unnatty gains of peace.

Nobody ever gave a shit about powerlifters.
Olympic lifters get attention every 4 years if you medal and are cute.
Nobody gives a shit about bodybuilders who aren't named Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Am I making decent 3 month progress or does it seem slow?
Stats?
I mean you've visibly lost weight. It's possible that you could've lost more
Started 195 lbs (before picture 1)
Current: 5'8" 175lb
>>36476605
good progress bro, start working on heavy compounds like DL and Squat though, build some mass in your core to avoid loose skin
ITT: Post things /fit/ will crucify you for
I dump FPH pics a lot because I get off on the idea of /fit/ guys puking

This man strides into your gym, sweeping his stern gaze over the horizon he spies that you are using the sole squat rack, he approaches and demands it.
Keep in mind that he is an internationally competitive athlete, stands at 186cm and 110kg and has military training in CQC, improvisational combat, genetic resilience to injuries and has a test level in the 0.1th percentile for human males
How do you respond?
>>36476289
Offer to let him work in between sets like I would do for anyone else.
that he needs to wait his fucking turn.
>>36476300
Upon noticing that you're working with paltry numbers in comparison to his own, he begins to consider the possibility you are a female of breeding age

How shredded can a natty get?
I would also like to know the answer to this question.
>>36476272
I know for a fact this guy is natty
>>36476284
is that a celtic batman tattoo? how unfortunate
Does he target abs or are oly lifts sufficient to get a core like his?
>>36476233
Maybe
Yes he trains abs. They have to be conditioned to handle the load for heavy lifts. Just delving straight into heavy oly lifts with a weak core with ruin you.
>>36476278
Is core strength usually the limiting factor on oly lifts?
I'm a total beginner so I don't really know what I can safely work with. I've been trying out 135 lbs clean and jerks and I want to go higher but not injure myself or learn bad form. For reference I'm 170 lbs and my deadlift max is 345 lbs and I can front squat 185 for about 5 reps.
Hello all.
Fat ass reporting in at 230 lbs.
My question to all of you is - should i do cardio? Ive read places that you can just lift and you'll lose fat and gain muscle.
Also, since I should obviously be on a cut, would 1500 cals a day be too drastic? Should I eat 230g of protein a day or is that just a meme? When should I eat fruits and veggies?
This is all very confusing and overwhelming to me. I have read the sticky.
not to drastic, when I was your weight (160 currently) I was eating 1000-1200 calories daily, one cheat day a month, and then intermitten fasting for 3 day cycles. Do what works for you, but this is what works for me
Read the sticky again
You only need .82g of protein per lb of lbm (lean body mass, basically your bodyweight minus the weight of your bodyfat)
.68 on a bulk.

I have a question. What doctor should I visit to fix uneven muscles? I've been noticing a size difference in my traps and pecs.
dr.dumbell press
Ain't no doctor is going to fix that. The only place you'll fix that is in Church. The church of iron
>>36475722
Fix your form you autist, or you can start using dumbbells.
Is this achievable natty?
>>36475673
He's clearly on steroids. Or at the very least creatine.
>>36475673
IT GOES IT GOES IT GOES IT GOES

Has he ascended humanity?
Have actually done this before
It's actually bretty gud especially on Test
The amount of stress you place on you chest just trying to keep the bar balanced, along with a nice smooth set of reps makes for a mighty pumpus
>>36476340
Shit looks dangerous
>>36476340
Do the bands assist with lifting the weights?
Warning: The foam rolling guide the sticky links to is down
Just picked up a foam roller and wanted to see /fit/s recommended exercises.
>>36475553
Just put it underneath a muscle and try to put as much weight on it as possible while rolling. It's not one of those things where you need a guide. Once it stops hurting, do the other muscle, then switch muscles, it'll stop hurting after a while of doing it regularly.
>>36475586
The rolling should be back and forth by the way don't try to turn into a car it's not gonna work
>>36475586
isn't it possible to injure certain parts of your body on it (i.e. neck)?
