Ok, /fit/, bit of a newfag. Need some tips here.
About 6'0", 175 pounds. I've been regular at gym for about 12 months, 9 of those spent working on gains. Problem is, I'm pretty damn weak. Can only bench 90, squat 90, but my abs are pretty toned. Looking for ways to get stronger. Any tips?

There's no way you were eating enough/sleeping enough/lifting enough. One of these factors was off.

Literally everything has molecules with the 'potential' to cause cancer. Red meat, soda, vegetables, the air you breathe...

I've heard so much conflicting information on this. Can anyone clarify this for me?
Links or at least anatomy based explanations would be appreciated. Yes or no answers aren't very convincing.
>>35132161
No.

maybe
never heard that before
I searched catalog and the FAQ for shit about meal replacements/soylent.
I've moved to drinking Soylent with my meals which I supplement with hard-boiled eggs and cliff builder bars for additional protein. I've gained ~10-15lbs (bulking) in ~4 months since I have started this diet. This seems a little bit high for the average .5lbs of muscle per week. Anyone else mixed bulking and soylent?
TL;DR Soylent. What's your experience?
I've been on Soylent for 10+ months about 1000 Cal per day. It's convenient and I enjoy it but only been lifting for 3 months so no word yet on the effectiveness for bulking.
OP here, If anyone is curious... 2-2.4k of my daily calories are from Soylent and the rest from hardboiled eggs and the occasional cliff bar. I range between 2.5k and 3k calories while maintaining a 100% DV balance of vitamins and minerals.
>>35131949
what i would give to maintain at 3k calories.
Hey /fit/
I'm going on a "diet" in the next 3-4 days, and I wanted to see if you had any good recipes and maybe if you could direct me to an actual "diet plan"..
Right now I'm planning on just eating a lot of baked chicken, some beff, and a lot of veggies.
I'm not a huge fan of chicken, but I've had some damn good chicken before. I have no idea how to start to season baked / roasted chicken. Could anyone throw some recipes at me?
With veggies, I'm mostly looking at carrots, cauliflower, zucchini, cucumber...

Just eat nothing for the next 3-4 days it doesn't matter what "diet" you go on when you'll just give it up and go back to Soda + McDs in less than a week.

I've been going to the gym for many years and I still haven't made a single friend.
I think the problem is me.
Why did you think going to the gym would help you get friends? They're different things.
>>35131496
I meant friends AT the gym. I should have clarified. I haven't made a single friend AT the gym, I've never spoken to anybody for any reason other than being asked for a spot.
What's your excuse for not being able to rest in an atg squat?

>>35131270
Keep your heels grounded. This holds true for heavy squats, bodyweight squats, casual Grok squats, poop squats, and Indigenous People’s Stretches: resting all that weight on your toes, as opposed to your heels, places far too much stress on your knees, and the resultant shearing forces will tear your knee apart, given sufficient time. Of course, if you’re playing a sport like volleyball, staying on your toes allows better reactions and quicker movements, but that’s a totally different situation. In all other...

Sit back. I’ll say it again because it’s so crucial. Squatting isn’t just sitting down; it’s sitting back, which spreads the load and creates a more manageable center of gravity. If you were to “squat” down and not back, your knees jutting way out, all your weight would be borne by your quads, and you’d probably topple over onto your face. At the same time, an inexperienced squatter attempting to sit back for the first time might topple over onto his or her ass. In a casual, weight-less squat, these issues become less likely to manifest, of course, but sitting back creates a more stable base and promotes good habits for when you do pile on the weight.
Hint: Imagine there’s a short chair just behind you and sit back in search of it. Or, better yet, use an actual tiny chair, stool, or anything that will allow you to reach the proper depth.
Squatting may seem completely natural (because it is!), thus rendering a “How to…” guide unnecessary, but you’d be surprised at how easily unnatural bad habits can disrupt our natural tendencies and instincts. Read through the tips and hints, make sure you can perform them correctly, and practice your weak points. Even if you’re confident and comfortable with a few hundred pounds on your back, give it a quick run-through. The squat movement figures into our lives on a daily basis, and it would be a damn shame to do it incorrectly.

Thank you anon.
What do you think of MSG? Is it true that it fucks with your metabolism/hormones to promote weight gain?
>>35131205
No, it's just a salt.
>>35131215
like bath salts?

Sure
Hey /fit/,
I moved into an apartment that was built in the 1920s and has non-standard door frames. As a result, the chin-up bar I have now doesn't fit.
I'm looking to get one that goes directly into the doorframe like pic related. I need it to hold up to 200 lbs.
Do any of you guys or gals use one? If so, which one? This one on Amazon has good reviews: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B012I4NSMM/ref=s9_simh_hd_bw_p200_d0_i2?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER
>>35131115
get the kind that hooks on the top frame of the door. it'll hold more weight.
>>35131132
That's the problem - I have one already that hooks around and it doesn't fit on these doorways, hence why I'm trying to find one that goes directly in the doorframe.
>>35131115
You have to tighten it pretty boss like. I've seem too many of those fall and bust the person's ass. And when I say too many I would say about 2 or 3
