Is there a recommended strength progression type program for weighted pull ups?
Most I've done is 3 plates (pictured) for a single.
My back is big/wide enough and instead of wining it, I'd like to focus on getting bigger numbers now; but idk what kind of programming is optimal for a lift like weighted pull ups.
Also, do you just go by the added weight? or your total weight + the added weight? etc.
I'd treat it like progressing any other compound movement, a 5x5 template might work well.

Nice work breh.
>1 plate for 5 at 240 here.
Obviously you'd know a bit more about this than me but doing paused sets really seemed to help. Hanging at the bottom, and pausing at the top holding for a few seconds each rep with the chest to the bar.
Using pull up globes is top tier as well.

I was thinking that, but the issue comes with what weight to go by.
If I go by body weight + added weight versus added weight, the percentage increase changes drastically.
80% of 135 is +108
but if you take my body weight 165 and add 135 = 300
80% of 300 = 240; take off my body weight of 165 = +75 lbs
(though squat programs don't take your body weight into account); so I'm just confused overall

they spend like 1000$ a month for fastfood, how is that the reason?
i bet even if they all would be rich, they would still be fat fucks.

>they spend like 1000$ a month for fastfood
And then they claim "healthy" food is expensive.
Preworkout, is /fit/ yay or nay?
I don't know
Can you repeat the question

Personally i just take caffeine pills on the days i really need them and completely omit caffeine from my life otherwise. Cutting out caffeine sucks for a week or two, but once you lose the tolerance, taking a caffeine pill basically gives you super powers.

You guys always talk about supplementing zinc and magnesium, but how come everybody doesn't just take a multivitamin? I get the impression people here don't do this.
most multi's lack proper magnesium content because it would take up too much volume of the tablet. Multiple tab formulations dont sell as well so they just forego adding magnesium. Zinc is actually fine to get from a multi. Make sure that your multi contains a well absorbed form of zinc like citrate or methionine bound.
Multivitamin uses very shitty compounds with low bio-availbility, and the doses tend to be wrong
also to add: most people here are under the impression that brown rice, broccoli and chicken contains all the vitamins and minerals your body needs, so they think paying for a multi is a waste. Obviously they are wrong.
That's it Anon I'm flying to Mexico city to have gynocomastia in 12 hours from now.
Wish me luck
Have a safe flight. Post results.

I want your best lifts aswell
DL = 5plates
Squat = 385
Bench = 275lbs
>6pl8 dl
>4pl8 squat
>3pl8 bench
>>35675722
The only way I would ever believe those lifts belonged to that body is if you were 12' tall
6' tall, 225 pounds.
Deadlift - 525
Squat - no idea maybe 350
Bench - don't bench
I don't squat because I have osteoarthritis and I don't bench due to a partially torn pec from a while back. I used to be stronger when I was younger, now I don't give two shits.
How decent is a shoulder press of 135 for 5 reps?
>>35675721
depends on your weight. There are actual strength standard calculators that can answer that question.

You need to do better then that. It's not good enough.
What app do you use to set the alarm? Do you use an alarm that chooses the best moment to wake up during a timeframe?

Is Soylent /fit/ approved?
I know I need to eat a ton more for maximum gains but this seems perfect for general health and for during cutting.
Asking here because the web doesn't have many discussions about it.
Fuck off
Cannibals OUT
You'll want to get more fiber, pic related.
The "fiber" in Soylent is actually maltodextrin, which won't, uh, you know, "get the job done", if you know what I mean.
(And by that, I mean your shit will be so backed up you won't even remember the last time you used your anus.)
Other than that, as long as you like drinking pancake batter, it's great as just basic, bare minimum sustenance.
Soylent is good for bulking I guess, it doesn't fill you up at all despite the hype.
