I take a moderate amount of caffiene for studying and sometimes during/before workouts.
>inb4 you'll die of a hear attack
Anyone tried going with caffiene pills over energy drinks, coffee etc? I'm already on diet/sugar free caffeinated drinks so I'm wondering if it's worth it going straight to the source.
>inb4 sugar-free is bad.

It's caffeine, it does what caffeine does. Nothing special about it. Better to use pills desu so you won't have to make and drink the black sludge or pay out the ass for energy drinks

>Deadlifts
not worth the risk. Can work every muscle it hits just as/ more effectively with other, safer exercises. If you still want to do them, you're better off with rack pulls. Only reason to do them is if you're a powerlifter and plan on competing.

>Barbell Bench
99 % of the time you hear of a guy tearing a pec or fuking up their rotator cuff in the gym, you don't even have to ask how they did it. Once again, not worth the risk.
Incline DB, flat DB, decline bench (more of a natural motion), dips>>>>>flat barbell

>Squats
The best of the three. I've still seen too many lower back injuries and knee injuries from it to recommend heavy squats to everyone who isn't a powerlifter or competing athlete. There are safer alternatives that will allow you to build great legs without the risk.

U mad lifting elitists? I laugh hard when the majority of the people defending deadlifts in every DL thread are 5'10, 150 lbs and have been lifting for less than a year. brb I heard it's the king of exercises, anyone who doesn't do it is an idiot. Then a several older, jacked guys come in and agree with what I have written about DLs and are ignored.

You don't need any of these lifts to craft a good physique, be strong or athletic. In many cases the risks and injuries will end up being counterproductive to your goals.

Nobody says that. People like you just want their participation medal of going to the gym. You will never get fuckin joocy and want to drag everyone who tries down to your level. Take your crabs in bucket and git you beta faggot.
>>
>>36359490
as a 34 y-o lifting for 7 years, I honestly agree with this 100%

Machines are godtier for isolating specific parts of your body and cardio (aka low body fat) will get you an aesthetic body quickly.

Squats, Deadlifts and benchpress are basically exercises to see how heavy you can lift until you injure yourself. Lunges are fine for lower body, benchpress is basically inverted push-ups with adjustable weight, and deadlift well, it's equally bullshit.
Cardio, isolations, intensity/volume and clean eating is all you need if your goal is aesthetics

I...have not tried that. How did you prepare it?

or are you just messing with me?
>>
>>36359140
fucking hell how can you NOT gain weight at 120? even when i'm cutting it's difficult to keep under ~ 2300 with three meals a day while getting enough protons

you're not eating nearly as much as you think you are. you're probably not even getting more than 60g of protein a day.

Hi /fit/,

I don't use this board often at all but I thought this would be the best place to post this.

Long story short, I am and extremely unhappy individual with a few mental illnesses and I have tried many different things to deal with the sources of my issues and things to cope with them, both with and without the advice of doctors.

The largest issue that I have identified, which creates a lot of other symptoms, like anxiety, insomnia, depression, suicidal ideation etc. is my critically low self-esteem because of past events.

I would like to hear some advice from people hear regarding commitment to becoming fitter and more attractive through training, and the impact that could have on my mental issues.

Currently I eat very little, but I eat what I believe is healthy (paleo diet).
I am 6'0 and 145lb and I basically look like a typical effeminate guy.
I really think that girls don't like this because most of the guys here (Australia) in bars/clubs are quite muscular, and don't seem to pay much attention to me (not to mention I radiate negativity).

I understand this is not /adv/ or some kind of psychiatric counseling board, but I am just interested in the mental impact of becoming more fit and muscular like the other young males around me, who seem to radiate positivity and confidence.

It helps. You have nothing to lose by trying it. Having hobbies makes you an interesting and more effective person, and lifting especially is good for your health, appearance, and confidence. Just make sure you get on a well designed program to start and stick with it. Consistency is key.
>>
>>36357918
Getting /fit/ won't rid you off your mental illnesses but for me personally it has helped with anxiety and depression. When I feel I could dominate others in the room physically I definitely feel more confident in my presence, I hold my head higher and make more eye contact.

With that said it could go too far and it could create a very narcisistic individual that looks to constantly dominate others, Henry Rollins is an easy example

Your planet is nearing destruction

The one known as "Anonymous" will begin the trial.

Doubting anybody remembers me. I'm the guy who posted as a 29 year old diabetic (currently down 25 pounds as of this morning after 4 months btw)

Not really /fit/ related but here's a lovely story involving the police.

>Keep 5 needles of insulin ready in my cooler in the back of my car when travelling (Been getting into camping and such to help me be more active)
>Pulled over by police
>I was speeding apparently (going like 30mph in a 25 cause it was a camping area so speed limit was low)
>Takes half an hour to run my license
>Cop comes back asks to search my car, tell him know
>Typical cop nonsense "What're you afraid of me finding?" etc...
>Say I just don't want to deal with it, I've got nothing illegal etc...
>Cop says he's going to get a canine unit. Makes me sit in the back of his squad car. Cop is holding my door as I got out so I couldnt close it
>Another cop car comes up with a dog and sniffs around and they encourage him to go inside my car
>Cop says the dog hit on something so they proceed to fuck shit up
>Cop shows me insulin needles "I see why you didnt want me looking around"
>Tell him it's insulin, he asks to see my prescription (...insulin is over the counter, it's not prescribed. Diabetics have to buy it for the rest of their life, why would it be prescribed?)
>Cops do some shit with their back to me, tells me they're testing positive for drugs
>Arrested, spend a night in jail
>Fast forward to yesterday
>Cops can't recreate positive drug results using my fucking insulin, the judge knew it was insulin, the cops say vague nonsense "it might be diluted, and how long they've been in storage might be a factor" nonsense.
>Not charged with drugs but ended up getting charged for paraphernalia because of the empty needles
>500 dollar fine

This is my first experience with the legal system, and not going to lie... think it's broken.

Had to rant about this shit to someone, get this off my chest.

Cops are like presidents - wanting to be one should disqualify someone immediately. Still, we need cops, so we have to deal with egotrip bullshit from 80 IQ "alphas" once in a while.

are you implying that it's impossible to look like that natty?

>>36357790
If you cut 6-8 months and maintain it for a week then bulk up again, maybe

anything longer than that and he's on roids

I honestly believe that's natty. I've seen guys I know for a fact are natty who look nearly that good at peak. I'm not too far off that natty, either, training for body building.

All memes aside.

Do any of you lift for Jesus in any way?

I am a half ass Christian but I've decided to live my life for god since my way wasnt working right so god guides me.

Do you ever make spiritual gains?

Yeah. I stopped believing and accepted responsibilty for my life. Like a weight was lifted off my shoulders realizing I was in charge of myself and could make what I wanted out of life.
