Rich Piana always does slow, concentrated 30 rep sets and contracts the muscle while doing it.
I tried it and got some serious burn / pump.
Is this actually a good way to build muscle? I can't see why it wouldn't work for natural lifters. It's a shit load of volume.
>>36268503
no.
>>36268781
Not helpful, I appreciate the bump though.
>>36268799
don't mention it.
I feel bloated most of the time, have awful-smelling farts, and have hard/ass-irritating shit (with occasional undigested chunks)
What could this be causes by and how do I stop it? I eat plenty of fiber a day (~50g) and maintain a good diet, albeit high on oats, whole grains, nuts, and milk. Please help, I'm tired of this shit
>>36268221
cut the milk. I used to feel like i was being stabbed in the gut until i quit dairy.
>>36268221
Have you tried less fiber? Do you soak your oats overnight before eating them? Are you lactose intolerant?
>>36268244
I can, but given my food choices, that'll actually prove a little hard. I don't soak oats, just stick em in the microwave for a minute, and I shouldn't be lactose-intolerant - been drinking all my life without any problems
who fell for the minimalism meme?
>pic related arrived yesterday
>ran in them for 45 min today
>currently have 5 blisters
anyone have good experiences with running in sandals or other minimalist shoes? are they a scam?
lol Jesus ran in sandals before those things were even manufactured
Learn2sandal like the Roman Christians
>>36268019
Do you have Starrets "ready to run"? You need to read that before you start running in minimalist shoes, there is more to it than just putting them on and cranking out a 10K. You have to ease into minimalist running slowly, the muscles in your feet have atrophied due to modern shoe design.
>>36268019
you should have ran less you tard, gradually building up.
/fit/, what's the easiest way to pull girls at clubs? I haven't been out to a club for like a year, since I got /fit/ and I never had any luck before but am heading out tonight. Everyone says its easy as fuck but I just never 'got' it. Does being /fit/ make it really any easier?
>>36267816
Have fun and be yourself
>>36267839
OK mum
>>36267816
Be white and good looking, and spend a lot of money
Redpill me on paleo.
Fucking retarded ideas but the diet is healthy. Would be better with wholegrains and legumes
Paleo is how to lose weight and get big gains
>>36268049
this
paleo is... sortof stupid, but it is a very, very good diet for you. I recommend it to anyone, but ypu should include oats if you lift (which are forbidden since "hur durr cavemen didn't eat oats you dummy!")
i'm 20kg over my ideal weight. have no money to pay a gym and as i read the sticky, i wondered if others can relate as someone above weight unhappy with their body and would care to give any tips to start exercizing an losing weight
eat less move more
>>36267360
don't need a gym membership to run down the street, count calories, easy
>>36267360
I wish people would stop associating Losing weight = Going to the gym. Going to the gym is never a bad idea, but the most important part of losing weight is adjusting your diet. That costs literally negative money. Just eat less—there is no magic involved.
/fit/, redpill me on this shit.
I know that it has a fuck tonne of sugar but is there anything else in it to be worried about? Is it alright to drink it if you're not really eating much and are exercising regularly?
u monster
>>36267429
Alright m8
>>36267346
Just get zero cal energy drinks. Also, monster is shit. Get rockstar punched. If you're gonna pay for an energy drink, get one with a decent amount of caffeine. Monster is a neutered pussy drink.
Should I start lifting or lose more weight?
I've still got a little chub on the lower torso but I think it's a good time to start
>>36266781
Are you biting your fucking shirt? Why don't you just take it off?
Also don't lift. As gay as /fit/ is, it doesn't need shirtbiters
>>36266816
whats so bad about holding my shirt up with my teeth you fucktard are you seriously being aggravated just by that one detail
>>36267013
topkek
You could have been a swimmer, climber, olympic weightlifter or anything...
Yet you decided to be a faggot male barbie doll, curling in front of your mirror, flexing your abs and shouting fuaaark
Wtf happened to you?
>>36264784
But I'm not. I'm a powerlifter. I train to be as strong as humanly possible, without regards for how I look. That makes me an athlete, not a male barbie doll.
sorry grandma
>>36264807
Well, powerlifting is also a performance based sport, so good for you. You deserve a cookie.
When says /1/2/3/4/, how many reps is that with that number of plates for each exercise?
10
I'd like to go for x5 but when most people on here say it they're probably x1 or estimated 1RM or estats
3x5 for squats and bench, 5x5 for everything else.
>Secret training principles that chestbrah and zyzz used!
What the fuck could that be? hmmmm.
lmao does he use his dead brother for everything?
>>36264171
wow ;... just wow
>>36264171
Roids.
It's sure as hell not a routine.
>le cut soda out of your diet
Implying soda isn't a god send for weight gaining
>not just eating lots of snickers bars
>not just eating your neighbors sugar
>not just eating sugar and olive oil
I've been taking a mass gainer for two months now and I actually haven't got any bigger. Not even a 1kg?
I had two friends who took mass gainer and they're pretty big. They use a different brand but I'm pretty sure they're all the same.
So should I switch brands or just continue? Or do they just not work altogether?
>>36263535
you also need to be eating. Its all about surplus calories dude.
>>36263535
Are you working out hard enough, are you eating enough?
eat more
What are some ways of minimising hunger /fit/? I'm trying to lose weight (85kg) and my hunger pangs are really chipping at my willpower.
Drink water or coffee
Eat slower
Drink more water
Drink coffee
Eat more protein
Eat more fat
Cut carbohydrates and especially sugar
Cut artificial sweeteners as they have been shown to increase appetite
>>36263398
Drink green tea (no sugar, no milk).
Green tea also gives a slight boost to metabolism, so can help burn fat more easily.
Recently i've noticed bubbles in my urine. Did i fuck up my kidneys with too much proteons?
fukin metal brah kill it
too much sugar. You getting the betes. fix yoru shit
did you just jerk off?
because yeah
