So /fit/, what to you think of weighted vests for cardio and calisthenics? Im considering a 20kg-30kg vest to simulate combat gear whilst training, as Im in the military.
Bump.

Can't you just wear your issued body armour and train in that?
>>35133548
It'll destroy your knee and ankle cartilage

>can only go to the gym 4 days a week due to school and work
>do a push/pull routine with squats and dl because of this
>gf persuading me to stay the day with her again
>have only done 2 pull days in 2 weeks
>>35133319
why the fuck are you doing a split with only 4 days a week?
why not do fullbody 3.5x a week?
at most do a U/L split, so you can at least hit each muscle group twice a week.

So /fit/ why do people think bodybuilders are the worlds strongest people? Why is bodybuilding associated with strength at all?
>>35133298
because being strong and fat is like being scrawny with abs.
entirely unimpressive.
nobody gives a shit about muscles, unless they can see them.
being able to bench 3pl8 is a lot harder at 8% bodyfat than at 35%, everything else being equal
it isn't that people think bodybuilders are the strongest..
they just recognize their feats of strength as the most impressive, and most desireable
powerlifters are to impress guys
bodybuilders are to impress guys (with added bonus of impressing girls)
>>35133298
>So /fit/ why do people think bodybuilders are the worlds strongest people?
The general population knows nothing about strength training, fitness, etc. They only see surfaces and judge books by their cover. This is true everywhere, actually. Politics, entertainment, et cetera. There's a reason why movie stars look like movie stars and not lumpy, middle aged housewives.

Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
Tell me about powerlifters. Why does they wear so much fat?
>>35133260
too bad Misha is oly lifter and strongman
>>35133260
it's not that much.
>>35133260
Your body will sustain more muscle at a higher body fat percentage.
Is this the new king of /fit/?
>>35133224
No.

fuck off

Hello
>Who else /bulking2016/
I'm 6ft tall and have lost 90 lbs (210 lbs currently ) while lifting and I am honestly tired of permacutting.
Current lifts are 315x4 squat and diddy
190lbs x 1 bench and 125 lbs ohp
I have lose skin so fuck abs. Bulking up to 250 going for bear mode
Pic related. My dyel back. My stomach is gross.
>>35133180
5'9 115lbs taking a 1000 kcal surplus and doing SS + whatever accessories
I don't want a six pack. I want to be a big strong man
>>35133194
Good luck bra
>>35133180
>lose 90 pounds
>plan to gain back 40 pounds
If i were you, i wouldn't start bulking until i got down to like 185 or 190 and i would not go over 210 or 215.
How's that weight loss going /fat/?
Personally I'm down 32 kg since January.
Anyone know of any supplements that help with weight loss?
>>35133037
Good on ya, mate. Keep up the hard work!
Downing one or two full glasses of water after a meal usually allows me to eat half the amount I would require to be full normally. It doesn't get you completely full, but with a bit of willpower you can eat way less and still not feel like you're punched in the gut.
>>35133052
You just gotta make sure you get all the nutrients you need, and that you don't eat too little.
>>35133052
I'm already at a 1000 calorie deficit compared to my TDEE and I work out 5 times a week so I can't really do much more than I am in that regard. I could drink more water though I suppose.
So I've been 5'9" and a stable 275 lbs for a few years now. I've been keeping track of my calorie intake and I average around 2000-2200 a day. I don't work out regularly, but I'm not entirely sedentary either, usually hitting 10,000 steps a day according to my phone.
What's /fit/ recommend when your metabolism is in the shitter? I'm panicking a little because my doctor actually recommended gastric bypass surgery and doesn't think exercise would be enough for me to lose weight.
Pic related because I've been diagnosed since I was 9.
>Exactly me a couple of years ago.
Eat less, work out more.
>>35133004
Nigga, thyroid condition does not affect weight loss at all as long as you take your fucking TSH. And that's comming from a guy with a thyroid that's 3 times smaller than it should be.
>>35133026
Working out more will hopefully be accomplished shortly upon finally getting a car. I figure I'm going to need a gym membership to counter not having to walk everywhere anyway.
>>35133051
It seems to have been a factor for me. Even when I was working out 4 hours a week for two months for a college course I didn't lose any weight, just felt like shit all of the time.
Hey guys
How can I just increase my strength but not my size?
I'm happy with my size and prefer dense muscle to puffy one !
I'm doing HIIT cardio and most of my compound lifts are in 4x5 range with heavy volume
Eat at a very low caloric surplus
Do low reps + high weight
Maintain low bodyfat
>>35132981
i am pretty sure this isn't a thing you can do.
just cut bodyfat if you want to be more firm
>>35133000
>Do low reps + high weight
while that is a good way to get low volume (and thus low hypertrophy) it is a bad way to get muscular strength.
just don't do progression, OP
Is smoking an effective way to lose weight? what about just chewing nicotine gum?
I dip. It gets rid of my hunger cravings and plus the buzz is bretty gud
>>35132908
http://www.bodyrecomposition.com/fat-loss/fat-loss-supplements-2.html/
There is a section about stacking nicotine with caffeine, it is a not as effective EC stack but it will still blunt your appetite and yeah chew gum or wear a patch.
Both options are expensive and cigarettes are deleterious.
It's cheaper, healthier, and probably more effective to just exercise and eat right.
2 a.m. here in Philly. Just pulled a 545 lbs raw deadlifts at 190 lbs, 5 feets 10 incheroonies, roughly 10ish% body fat. Feels good man.
What's your most recent PR fit?
>>35132833
>Deadlifts have great lately
Confirmed degenerate retard. Go die in a fire of bush wucks you jimmberfizzing fuck monger.
>>35132833
The fact that you snapchat your deadlifts to your 'friends' shows how insecure you are in real life.
Nice one man.
>>35132833
nice!!
i remember loading up a bar and taking a photo aswell, then deloaded the bar afterwards lol! good job m8
