>voice still cracking occasionally at 19
Why does this happen? My voice has dropped and I'm done with all the main bits of puberty, but I still have the occasional squeak when I'm speaking. Are my vocal cords just training?
>>37824720
Happens to pretty much everyone for the duration of their lives, now, to actually care about it on a personal level may in fact be slightly autismo, so just let it slide.

Welcome to life, voice cracking happens sometimes.
I frequent a lot of old people.
I look so fucking ridiculous next to them.
I weigh 50kgs and have a bitch voice, at fucking 22.
I have no beard, no muscle, look like a girl, and only sport long-ish hair because nothing else suits me.
I'm 5'10; weigh 114lbs.
Most of those old farts are around 220lbs, have deep voices.
There even is a 16 years old with a full beard who looks older than me.
What the fuck went wrong?
I want to kill myself every single day. I've dropped off college because I couldn't hndle...

Alright, trying this again.
Sup /fit/, I'm a total DYEL, but I recently started working out (around a week ago) and I was wondering about how fast I should expect gains to come. How long did it take you guys to see visible gains in the mirror?
>inb4 read the sticky
>inb4 not gonna make it
Took me two weeks to look swole as fuck but i am a genetic freak and also muscle memory as I used to be in the nfl
Just snapped this 2 minutes ago. Cardio bunnie from my gym
>>37823918
OP you will have NO GAINS because you have NO PATIENCE.
Now: READ THE FUCKING STICKY over and over and over again UNTIL YOU FUCKING UNDERSTAND IT, because you obviously DO NOT, and FUCK YOU if you say "I don't want to" because then you WILL NOT EVER MAKE IT, and STFU faggot and fucking DO IT or I'll call the mods and have them geolocate you so I can come kick your door in and beat the shit out of you for being such a little stupid cunt.

Does this shit actually increase your metabolism or is it bro science?
>>37823804
Don't know about the metabolism, but you lose fat for sure if you stick with it.
anaerobic training promotes fat breakdown and protein synthesis so its a good way to shred
>>37823804
for fatloss yes but you will end up looking skinny fat if you don't mix it with some strength training.
>lifting does nothing if you have bad beta genetics!
http://www.drmichaeljoyner.com/identical-twins-genetic-destiny/
Notice how the jogcel beta cuck on the left actually has less HEIGHT, FACE and FRAME too and not only muscle mass. If you are under 25, a weightlifting regimen can still most likely rescue you from your terrible hikki lifestyle and turn you into a Chad.
All it takes is a few years of a dedicated volcel lifestyle of hitting the gym hard and eating well!

But they're twins. And the weightlifting one does not only have more muscle but he also clearly made HEIGHT, FACE and FRAME gains, while his twin brother looks like a jogcel beta cuck with low testosterone

Hey /fit/

>>37823633
>induction
What?
>>37823633
sorry OP, you've been trolled into joining the KKK by accident
>>37823640
Can't just waltz into the gym, my local gym has to teach you how to use all the equipment and do some measurements of your body when you get your membership.

Dammit. Should've known when the instructor told me to call him Grand-Wizard
How many cals do you all cut on ?
On 1600 a day here, definatly working, some days its fucking toture, others its ok. lost about 30lbs in 4 months (wasn't fat as fuck before but i was overweight) down from 200lbs at 6ft 1" to 174lbs.
How the fuck do people like pic related (matt ogus) cut on like 3000 cals a day ? The guy in like 5ft 7, is that how good steroids are or is his calorie output just hugely high ?
What gives ?
>inb4 he doesnt cut on that high cals, theres a contest prep video where he shows his food...

>>37823587
That's how steroids are.
You need more calories on them regardless if cutting or bulking
Muh progress btw
Abs when ?
>inb4 dyel yes i know
>>37823643
Anon, some friendly advice from another chubby anon who is also cutting. Except I acually have muscles under my fat due to accually lifting.
Don't cut now. You will just look like a skinny shit.
Start lifting and you will start gaining muscle while the fat slowly goes down.
You will be much more happy seeing muscle under the fat rather then just a skinny fat twig.
Lift first anaon. Get decent lifts then cut.
deadlift alternatives?
Romanian deadlift.

Hey /fit/, moron here. I have something that's either a really stupid idea, or a "duh" thing that I should realize without needing to ask.
I'm scrawny as hell, and pretty weak. I've been trying to get stronger, with that sort of being my only focus, because I'm actually all right with my body shape. I like my mobility with how I am and don't really have an interest in getting jacked, I just want to be able to move more weight around. I've only been doing exercises that use heavy weight for low reps, 3x5 and 5x5 ranges for all the...
Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
3-5 reps = stronger mostly
8-12 = bigger mostly
More than that = endurance
If you're not getting stronger at those lifts you might have shit form or not enough protein in your diet
>>37823431
Protein is a problem, I know. Vegetarian whose allergic to nuts. All the eggs and pea protein. ;.;
>>37823438
Oh shit, you might need whey powder, my protein comes from chicken nuts and nutrigrain/oats
/fit pls help
My girlfriend recently joined gym and I tried to start her on SL 5x5 with me. However she isn't strong enough to squat/bench etc the bar with no plates.
Any suggestions on routines using dumbbells maybe that she could do to attain enough strength for SL 5x5???
Pic semi related. She looks kind of like the girl in the picture.
what about the same routine but with dumbbells? start with whatever weight she can use and at 10kg switch to the bar. you in aus by any chance?
>>37823410
yea, use dumbbells to get her up to 45lbs, you dumb fuck. she can use 10lb dumbbells and do the same movements as you would with a fucking barbell. you fucking Mook.
also, your girlfriend doesn't look anything like that you fucking liar
>>37823410
Start with dumbbells. And try starting with box squats as well and watch her form to make sure she's sitting back correctly.

What % of people do you think actually lift year round for years on end non-stop?
At my gym there's probably 15 or so people that I've seen consistently throughout the entire year for the last 5 years.
I've seen literally hundreds, if not thousands of people come in for a few days, or weeks, or months..then disappear.

It's definitely a small percentage.
I'm on my 4th week as a beginner. Do you have any advice on how to make it a lifelong pursuit?

>>37823373
don't stop
>>37823373
My only advice would be is to not be a normal-fag.
Normal-fags end up with many responsibilities and hobbies in life and therefore mostly end up quitting eventually.
I played WoW for 10 years non-stop and only stopped because Blizzard ruined the game, I'd still be playing if it wasn't ruined by OTHER people, I've been lifting for 5 years now non-stop, good thing nobody can ruin this for me :D
I've been doing SS for 4 weeks now and already Ive stalled on an excercise.
Heres my bench
40kg 5, 5, 5
45kg 5, 5, 5
47.5 kg 5, 5, 5
50 kg 5, 5, 5
52.5 kg 5, 5, 5
55 kg 5, 4, 5
today I did 57.5kg and couldnt even do 3 reps on my first set.
Im going on holiday for the next week so the next time ill be benching is 18th July. while on holiday Ill have no access to gym equipment and so I was wondering what I should do?
Is stalling this early a sign im doing things wrong? should I deload when I get back from holiday or just try...

>should I try and do pressups and dips while im on holiday?
Yes.
>should I deload when I get back from holiday or just try 57.5kg again?
Do 50kg when you're back.
Usually its because people aren't eating enough to progress. Rip says once you stall three times you lower the weight and try again.
I'd recommend adding in some accessory lifts about now too. Triceps, dips, that sort of stuff
bro it took me about 4 months to build up to 50 alone, plateauing at 57 on 4 weeks is good dude, that really is. Try warming up with 30kg for 8 maybe and then you will be able to hit 60kg easily for 5.
