What vices do you have that affect your gains?
What will you replace them with?
I have alcoholism. I am going to replace it with gambling at the casino. That way I can hit the gym the next day feeling fresh.
I had crippling ocd so I used it to count calories
>>36467013
Is it good for ensuring technique on exercises?
>>36467013
do you really have ocd? like turning the light off and on 20 times every time you walk out of a room?
What supplements are absolutely necessary?
What supplements have the MOST effect?
Multivitamin, creatine, protein powder, roids.
hardwork
>>36466724
Bretty much this. Just swap out the roids with vitamin D for dem natty gains. Heard mixed things about ZMA, but zinc by itself is good
What are the best bodyweight exercises (for when you don't have weights around) for your biceps/shoulder region /fit/?
Hmmmm
Dips.
Push-ups (weighted with a backpack full of books)

>dips
I can't think of anywhere to do this desu.
a PT at my gym just told me to skip all the back workout, including didlylift because i have a ~10% scoliosis
If you do have scoliosis, then you really shouldn't be deadlifting. Should be wearing your back brace instead
>>36466455
This
>>36466454
dont skip the back workout definately not, but maybe skift the diddly and the squats and work on core/spine stabilizing muscles and erectors more carefully
Go to gym, see This.
Translation:
>please use the big black mats for your deadlifts
What the actual fuck?!
My gym has its floor covered with 3-4 cm of protective rubber + they recently invested in a lot of bumberpl8s.
Have these people never worked out before or are they just retardet?
Årh hold dog op med at brokke dig
just use the big black mats you mong

Just finished my first 3 years of med school in sweden, unless i want to move to bumfuck nowhere theres a 12 month wait list for residency, and since i have a GF and an apartment i don't really feel like moving into the boondocks.
Thinking about studying abroad instead, have gotten an offer at some hospital in adelaide australia, and one in santa barbra CA.
But im afraid of taking that step, since that would mean i probably have to break up with GF etc.

How many of you get chiropractic therapy? Is it worth it?
>>36465590
feels nice.
doesn't really do anything.
>>36465590
Was comfy, didn't really help much outside of making me feel good. Basically just a fancy massage
>>36465590
Mine identified what I needed to stretch, taught me how to stretch them and performed very simple and quick manipulation that provided a nice temporary relief while I worked on letting my back heal. He never claimed to do anything else, so I can't complain.

How is counting hard. Did you not finish primary school?
Such is the life of a natty
>too much effort
Just make a bunch of pre-made meals you faggot. You can spend 1 day a week counting and the rest of the week just eating them.

As an ectomorph taking forever to putting even 100g weight more on, how does one avoid putting that hard-gained weight on the belly and 'direct' it to the rest of the body instead?
Weightlifting at the gym 5 times/week and still the belly is bulging as hell. 'Bulking when lifting is the way to go', they said.
In the same boat desu.
I think you need to just forget about your belly/abs until you get to your goal weight.
Body stats?
>>36463510
>ectomorph
Stop this meme. You don't struggle to put weight on, you just don't eat enough. If you're gaining too much fat then don't eat as much. Also, you can't 'direct' weight anywhere. Do you know nothing about the human body?
I like my ecto birdlike frame. Even when I was bulking and get like pic on the left I still looked skin with a shirt on
Hey /fit/...I haven't cried in a long time, but tonight I couldn't hold it. I've been seeing a girl for some time and really fell for her, I could say that I love her. Not long ago she told me we should just be friends for now. Yesterday a good friend of mine saw her dressed up to go out and another guy was with her. I felt like somebody punched through my chest. Now, I've been sick for the past 3 months and couldn't lift and eat. I lost lots of gains and I feel like shit. But this girl crushed me, I'm about to use some roids to get back to life...I...
