Hello /fit/.
I can't afford the GYM anymore. It's my second month and it's been draining my wallet. I also couldn't get over the presence of others in the GYM, I feel really uncomfortable.
Should I just buy dumbells instead and work home? I just need to build some muscles in my chest, biceps, triceps and shoulders. Nothing else. I don't want my upper body to be hungry skelly mode anymore.

Do calisthenics

is that the weird sex pervert who likes dressing up like goofy?
>>35462317
You know GYM isn't an acronym, right? You don't need to yell it.

If you don't have shitty protein powder you can simply mix it with warm water and stir with a spoon

Do kegels ACTUALLY make you last longer in bed, or is it just a myth?
I hear the claim a lot, but is there any proof?
I'm looking to hear from people who have maintained a consistent kegel routine for months and have (or haven't) found tangible results to relay their experiences. It would be helpful to the citizens of /fit/ if you were to answer these questions:
• What can one reasonably expect from kegels in terms of sexual performance?
• What is required our of a kegel routine to get there?
• How do you know you're making progress?
•...

1. You're muscly, and should be using as low weights as possible to make them confused and correct your form
2. You're a fat idiot and should be laughed at
3. You're a skinny faggot just like them and not only failed to show off in front of other skinny faggots but also tried to pass yourself off to /fit/
One of these is you, so fuck off

Regardless, OP is a sperglord faggot

How much would you DL in front of them if your back didn't hurt and why do you think their opinion matters?

what bro

it's the butt plug walk
Lived alone with mothe, ended up being a sheltered cunt, weighing 45kg at 178cm tall.
I'm 21 yeas old. Going to start SS soon, unfortunately I'm lactose intolerant. Can't GOMAD.
I have a bird stomach and have an insanely hard time eating a lot of food.
Please help.
>>35461544
There is lactose free milk, you can still do GOMAD.
However, I wouldn't do GOMAD, it is stupid. All you do is put on tons of excessive fat you need to shed later on again. You also wasted 21 years of your life, it's not like a year more to make some more reasonable weight gains is much of a loss.

How are you even alive?
Is it possible to go Edward Norton mode with just a 45lbs plate as equipment?
If you do enough of the movements and eat properly you'd prolly be fine.
>>35461528
no
>>35461572
this is a DYEL who shouldn't be giving advice.
ignore him
you need progression to make gains.
linear progression as a novice, then progressive overload when those gains run out.
that being said, you can do more than nothing...
so if it is between nothing and a 45lb plate, use the plate.
but ideally get your hands on a gym membership, or some oly dumbbells and more weights or... something.
so many options.
you...

What are the most useful exercises with a plate? I'm guessing front raises and around-the-worlds?
Question for the philosophers of /fit/: how does one compensate with not getting any validation or attention from the opposite sex?
I chose this board cause this is full of threads like this and we are all lifting not just heavy ass weights but feels also. For many people it seems like lifting has boosted their confidence and made them look better resulting in mires and attention from the opposite sex.
But for me it has never happened really. I lift a lot and I personally think that my body is pretty decent. My face isn't totally fucked up either, sometimes...

Mods get this nigga..

I don't hear people who WHINE this much so just go kill yourself it's no wonder nobody will get with you you're a total Debbie Downer
>>35461106
Instead of waiting for the opposite sex to make a move you have to be the one to reach out to those qts
if you don't have a good face and good skin, what's the point of lifting, really?
>>35460983
>being ugly and fit

Whats the point of doing anything you fucking beta

obligatory post;
>there is none. it's all about the face
>>35460983
if you don't have a good personality, good sense of humor, and above-average intelligence, what's the point of having a good face and good skin or lifting?
http://startingstrength.com/site/article/why_almost_nobody_should_pull_sumo
what did he mean by this?
The article is 100% accurate and right about everything.
If you wanna skip all the explanations and just read the conclusions, skip to page 3.
the entire article is literally broscience at its best. pull however the fuck you want.
>>35460953
Unless you're a competitive powerlifter trying to put up the biggest 1rm deadlift in competition, you'll likely get a better training effect out of pulling conventional. Sumo is similar to the super-wide stance squatting or super-arched wide grip benching - if your goal it the biggest number possible and your build allows for it, its a pretty useful thing to do in competition (and at least sometimes in training, because you have to be competent at the movement and that takes work) but for general strength...

Anyone else going for an actual athletic physique instead of a roided up beast?
> Pic related, buakaw
>>35460743
Yup, I'm looking to be fit, not to be some gay ballooned up Ken doll
>>35460743
Do you mean, like, the physique you get from training for an actual sport, instead of just for 'aesthetics'?
>>35460743
Plan is to get a respectable level of strength at the gym first, then move on to kickboxing or something like that.
hi, i'm an 18 year old male who used to fap a lot. My main problem is not being aroused by real girls, I am definitely attracted to girls, but making out\sex is not exciting to me like porn is. I can't cum from sex nor from blowjobs due to lack of excitment and increased sensitivity. my question is: should i stop fapping altogether, or should i fap like once a week or something like that? my goal is not to stop fapping, but to become more horny irl.
>>35460450
Use lotion you cutfag wanker
>>35460499
still doesn't solve the psychological damage, but anyway, what type of lotion should i use?
>>35460450
Your problem's probably the porn rather than the fapping. It's over-stimulating. Cut that out and you'll start masturbating less automatically.
Quick question /fit/, is SS good for a beginner who wants aesthetics more than functional strength ?
>>35460432
Yes. It won't make you aesthetic but it will teach you how to use your muscles corectly so that you get get on a hypertrophy program afterwards.
If you've never lifted before, your body doesn't know how to activate all of your muscles. This is why you will see "CNS gains" mentioned in fitness articles. Central Nervous System controls how your muscles fire, and the best way to activate it maximally is to lift heavy, which is what SS is for.
Absolutely not

I'm getting mixed signals here.
What are some things people do that annoy you.

Went to the gym yesterday, not many NYR, but there was this old dude on the leg press. Loaded on 810 pounds, proceeded to do 2 sets of 4 reps w/ 2 inch ROM.

Who here nosex 2016? So far I haven't had sex in 7,665 days. Couple of things I've noticed on this streak:
>I have a great fear of being rejected by women so I gave up talking to them.
>Most of my free time and energy is spent posting tfw no gf threads on /fit/
>I seem to emit what I call a "virginity aura." People interacting with me can tell that I've never had sex before and are disgusted or openly laugh at me.
>I constantly...

Virgin master race reporting in. No sex for 7066 days and counting, not confident enough tp approach women and if they initiate contact i always spaghetti. Been lifting for a year thinking it would help but never does.
You sound pretty much like me in your age. I discovered that i was acting like a beta with my old alpha friends, who all had girl friends and where generally going in the right direction with their lives. Going to a club with them has allways been difficult to me since I couldn't score chicks around them due to my suddenly lower confidence. But then I started to go clubbing with my beta friends, who don't have courage to talk to girls. THIS made me feel like the alpha of the pack and gave me unseen energy and confidence to flirt with girls. I even found out that I...
