>mfw I can't do 10 curls of a 20 lbs dumbell
what the fuck is wrong with me??
how can I improve besides lifting more? Like how much weight and how often?
>>36460209
>beginner
>doing curls
Don't do curls. Have you read the sticky? None of the beginner programs include curls.
>>36460235
well I'm saying that as a reference because I have 20 lbs dumbells at home
the rests of my lifts are shit but "normal" for a beginner, but I have 0 biceps
my arms are skelly as fuck as a result
>>36460235
Why wouldn't you train biceps if you're a beginner? It helps with strength and aesthetics. It may not be a go to, and I'm no expert, but it just seems logical to do throw some curls into a routine.
I've been lifting for around 2 years however i started to be more disciplined and consistent in my routines these last 5 months. I noticed that i've been increasing in strenght and but somehow my weight seems to stay at around 135-140lbs. What am i doing wrong? Should i increase my workload or just eat a shitload more? (Note : I have a pretty NEET lifestyle outside of the gym ever since i got kicked out of college)
You've hit a plateau. Google it.

How long are you at the gym? How many calories you eating on a gym day? How many days a week are you at the gym?
>>36459842
>Should i increase my workload or just eat a shitload more?
Both.
Volume encourages growth, food facilitates growth.
>hit new PR
>still come home to the same messy room and daily routine
>>36459827
You must be new
>hit 400 wilks at 83kg
>come home and am greeted by the official making it(tm) squat and gifted my new 8/10 gf, adorably dog and luxury home
Keep pushing, OP!

How fucked are my lifts
>not designing your program around having a deload week on spring break
Your lifts were fucked from the start
You've lost everything
>>36459000
Not OP but im interested in what a deload week entails.
Articles suggested varying things from not working out at all to lifting at 50% max.
Can you provide some anecdotal stuff about a deload week?
broke out of cocoon mode and went to the bar for a friends birthday last night

to keep it fit related. what's your favourite lift and why?
congratz on starting to make it bro
>>36458868
Deadlift because I feel so strong when I pick up that bar with a fuckload of weight on it.
>what's your favourite lift and why?
changes every now and then desu. i used to love barbell rows - i hate barbell rows right now. same with military press. it'll change eventually and i'll be back at OHPing in the squat rack.
to answer your question: front squats.
Was GTA:SA the only game that had a gym and where you could workout and building muscle or burning fat? that shit was cash.

Guys. My girlfriend was giving me a handjob/blowjob last night but I couldn't stay hard. What do I do? Do I have ED or something?
Almost every hand/blowjob I've ever received it complete garbage. If my dick is out, I'm getting laid. This isn't middle school.
Maybe it was a shit handjob.
Should have just rammed the bitch.
If I watch too much porn I get that problem. It doesn't help if she sucks at sucking.
/fit/ what's the best way to get into running?

Bam.
What is the best exersize for abs?
>>36458212
planks and farmer's walks famalam
>>36458539
Neither.
Planks are useless,and farmers is less useful than squat or deadlift.
Push press is GOAT for abs.
Stomach vacuum is highly underrated
>>36458212
hanging leg raise
prove me wrong

Hello /fit/!
Straight forward:
I have this to work with and I would like for you to suggest me best exercises to do with the equipment I have. I'm making a 6 day training program for myself and could use a bit of help from the more experienced people. Thanks in advance!
