I recently joined the gym, my goal is to lose weight. I'm a big guy so I've got pretty far to go. About 35kgs/77lbs.
My first time at the gym I was really nervous but pushed on. But I noticed some random guy and his friend staring at me. It was really uncomfortable sort of staring. Whilst I was on the treadmill and rowing they both stared at my belly and my large size. Yeah I get it. I'm fat - that's why I'm at the fucking gym.
But it seems we have a similar schedule he or his friend or both are always there and always staring. It's totally killing my motivation and just making feel really fucking conscious and aware of my weight instead of my workout. Now I get anxious before going in for a workout and hate going to the gym. I've stopped going regularly.
What do????
They want your dick.
I actually stare people at gym, nothing to do at rest after reps. I usually stare at people with funny technique. or womyn.

Crank up your iPod and activate thousand-yard stare lone wolf mode. You'll stop caring within a month.
So does benchpress.
When I squat, my lumbar region hurts like ass.
When I bench, the part near my shoulderblades kills me.
Any idea why? Max DL is 90kg.
you are new to lifting and have a weak back from sitting in front of your computer all day. It will get stronger and more resilient over time, just keep liftan.
>>35171198
Problem is I've been lifting for 6 months.
>>35171145
learn to bench and squat properly

Welcome to /plg/ Powerlifting General
who else here has realised how autistic power lifting is?
Lol kek enjoy being strong in just 3 lifts while I'm strong in 8.
>>35171022
>were you squatting prior? squatting then benching always gives me killer cramps
Yeah. I found that too. Maybe I just didn't have enough water and sodium to offset that
>>35171052
>strong in 8
>strong
sure
plus it's a sport/hobby. That's like saying "oh so you're a swimmer and you specialize in breaststroke? What a faggot why not just be good at swimming"

Would /fit/ reccomended casein over whey?
literally what
I haven't figured out yet why anyone would need casein
also, milk it full of it
>>35170921
Would /fit/ recommend casein over whey?
Actually Im curious too about the pros and cons of both. Most people I know drink whey isolate but I know some uber jacked guys who drink a gallon of milk a day.
Can we stop with the green man bullshit? This is getting ridiculous.

By making another thread about him?
Guys if you arent doing pause reps for your 5x5 training youre never gonna make it. How much can you pause bench for 5?
5x5 paused bench 245, paused squat 275, paused diddly 365
Weight 194
Height 6'
>>35170772
whats the point of lifting a lot of weight if you look barely above average and arent even big?
I like the way I look
>>35170772
it makes me feel better about my self that my handstand form is better than his
What are the best sources of protein?
I mostly mean other than in meat, I'm not a vegetarian but I don't like eating massive quantities of meat, I can find it bit unappetising
are mushrooms any good for protein?
>>35170769
Lentils are good source of protein, some brown breads are good for it as well.
>>35170769
Mushrooms are okay but you gotta eat a tonne of them. Greek yogurt and cottage cheese are good if you tolerate dairy. Eggs too of course.
>>35170769
low fat dairy products and eggs are the shit
mushrooms dont really have too much proteins
How do you get an explosive chest?
I don't flat bench, I incline because it feels better. I'm always slow pushing the bar off my chest. the top part of the rep is easy, but the bottom half near the chest beats the piss out of me
I can only go fast if i put babby weight on
what do
I don't know. I want the answers too.
>>35170522
the heavier the weight is, the slower you move it, and the reason the bottom part is harder is biology&physics.
FYI explosivity is largely determined by genetics.
>>35170522
stop being a pussy and do some flat benches
>get in elevator
>random person says "hey big buy"

Pics?
That's decently big, friend
>>35170275
not really
i feel like a manlet alot of the times
theres people that are 16 or 17 that are taller than me
i feel like the next generation will be giants and i will be left in the dust
How can i ignore my sadness to go to the gym?
Im a guy who been lifting for years, but this weekend my gf broke with me, how do you guys cope with bad feelings and motivate yourself to go to the gym, even when feeling like shit?
>>35170126
Deal with your problems like a man by tunneling your emotions into lifting so you don't have to confront them.
You know you could just let today slide, maybe tomorrow and the even the rest of the week of you need it. I mean the holidays are coming up so why not just reboot and start again after the new year. I mean it's only your health and physical well being, being emotional and not forged steel will definitely lead you to where you want to be. Fuck her, you're better off being with someone who wants to be with you. Why let her deystroy you. You're free now, but not free to be a sad sack. Just go dog, don't even trip.
question to vegans, especially vegan bodybuilders: what foods do you primarily consume

Any /fit/izen know of a good routine to take up, having completed Starting Strength? Don't really care about mass that much, I'm only interested in getting stronger. Am able to go to the gym 3-5 times a week. Also, any tips on repairing my lungs after an year of smoking (~5 cigs a day)? Struggling with cardio at the moment
>>35170039
stop smoking cigs and get a vape bro if you still want dat nicotine rush.
I stopped smoking like a week ago, but my lungs feel like boiled crap while and after training
Texas Method if you want to keep getting stronger with minimal effort.
A really cute guy at the gym said that I was "pretty strong", asked how old I was + how long I had been lifting and then gave me his instagram without me asking for it or anything.
BUT when I went to his instagram it said he was a sponsored athlete.
So was he hitting on me, or just trying to push some products on me?
>>35170007
Products, i get that shit all the time. Think someone is being friendly turns out they are trying to sell something
>suicide is the only way
>>35170007
post some pics so we can evaluate whether you are worth attention
>>35170078
Top is him, bottom is me. He has no legs lol
we are both DYEL as fuck. I was kinda surprised he even had an instagram to be honest, I wouldnt have been too proud of his body. I can squat more than him, he deadlifts more than me and we benches the same.
