Has anyone here done an Ironman? I'm thinking about it. I can run a marathon in under 3 hours and swim for days but I've never done anything related to biking.

no one here does anything outside of lifting?

>>35098332

Very, very few people are capable of doing a full ironman. Even most people who train for distance cardio aren't going to be up for it.

Asking a random selection of people whether they've done an ironman is about as likely to get a positive response as asking random people whether they can bench 500.

1 pl8 is 20 kg. So lifting 4 plates is 80 kg.
>>
1plate = 1 plate each side + oly bar = 60 kg
2plate = 2 plates each side = 100 kg
etc
>>
so 1 pl8

is one rep 8 plates

1x120kg

FUCKEN KEK

> Last night, when I woke up at 3am in a cold sweat detoxing from whatever you put into my drink 5 days ago, I thought about you. I thought about how guilty I felt for saying a word about what you did. “he inspires so many, with his determination and attitude”. We talked about your clean reputation, how well you have done maintaining this façade. Until I was in the same room with you. I was a “believer”. Your body is maintained by anabolic steroids, Camel cigarettes and cocaine. “It’s so cheap to get here in LA” you beamed. “It’s harder in Australia, being and island and all.” I felt like a child meeting a matinee idol, so strong and handsome, “you mirin?” you asked, white veneers sparking like a Disney Villain. We laughed at how you sometimes eat Kangaroo, we cooed at each other’s accents, I kissed your torn right bicep that happened on Tues at Gold’s Venice Beach. You said it hurt so bad you almost passed out. I didn’t get the chance to hurt. Not until I woke up. I hate you Said. I hate you with every breath I breathe today. Each tear that falls hopes to wash away the filth of your touch. I want to make your meeting me as unforgettable as my meeting you. Trust me. I will.

Jason's gf is a big girl

so one of my favorite broscientists, jefe "the boss" cavaliere was talking about building pecs, and he mentioned something about two innervations in the pec allowing you to target the memeical "inner chest"

now my first reaction was to disregard this as he is a notorious broscientist... but..
a cursory google does seem to lend credence to the possibility the lateral nerve could target the "inner chest"

is there a chance this is (at least partially) true?

i don't know enough about physiology or the function of innervations to speak to any educated level... but intuitively it seems if you get one nerve to contract the muscle more dominantly than the other, it will target that area of the muscle (though.. i guess it still recruits the entire head of the pec major?)

>>35097949

Its not true. Where the nerve ends is largely irrelevant - when the muscle contracts, it contracts along the whole length of the fibre.

i understand motor unit recruitment, brah.. but isn't hypertrophy more complicated than that?

also i found this while googling
http://www.lookgreatnaked.com/articles/mechanisms_of_muscle_hypertrophy.pdf
>Moreover, muscles are sometimes
divided into neuromuscular components—distinct regions
of muscle each of which is innervated by its own nerve
branch—suggesting that portions of a muscle can be calledinto play depending on the activity

OK guys. I actually want to know how anyone knows who's natty. Everyone just agrees someone isn't natty and then it's fact. I'm not saying Simeon is natty but how do you know? Give me actual evidence. Here's what I usually get:

>you just can't be that big
>you just can't be that shredded
>ffmi argument which asumes those dudes from like 100 years ago where the genetic limit.

Think about this, if big ramy trained natural his whole life he would be accused of taking roids even if he wasn't.

>>35097707
big ramy has an FFMI of 43.6
eugen sandow had an FFMI of 28 (and didn't even train chest)
obviously this is not a reasonable expectation for 99.9% of people.

but is it truly genetically impossible?

Alright first of all, yes, he sometimes posts pretty autistic videos, such as demonstrated in: >>35086361

But I've been watching like 20 videos in a row from him and this guys is LEGIT. Yeah sure he doesn't look aesthetic, but he doesn't give a fuck about aesthetics. Watch his ''serious'' videos and you'll learn to respect the man like I do now

Hello /fit/

So I've made the decision to join the army to start off my life with all the amenities that comes with (I seen past all the normal recruiter stuff, before anyone asks) and am going to MEPS Wednesday .

My question is:

I really need to get in shape before Basic(after I finish my last year of HS, one more semester left) so it isn't necessarily as much hell as if I hadn't prepared

Catch is that, while I'm not a landwhale nor am I immensely skinny ( 6'4" 245lbs) I have NO CLUE on where to start and what to escalate to.

Also my willpower when it comes to decent food is horrid, I love to eat not particularly healthy things in somewhat large amounts (again not like that of a very large person, but say on fried chicken night, I would eat about three legs and a thigh if I'm really hungry)

I'm going to do the weekly future solider/PT thing my recruiter does,but what else should I start with?

Any advice is appreciated

I highly suggest you do a lot of research on fractional-reserve banking before joining, so you know exactly who/what you are fighting for.

If you want to fight to protect that global monetary system, and all the things that come with it. Then go for it.

I just don't want you to lie dying one day, then realize what it is you traded your life for.

I see a lot of people finish their beginners routine and then progress onto some sort of split or other more complex routine. However I'm a bit confused about what each one does.

The three standard splits are Upper/lower, PPL. and then the 5 day brosplit.

Is there actually much of a difference between what each achieves in terms of strength/aesthetic gains? Is one split more body-building specifics while the others are more athlete/sport specific?

If I stick to one plan long term will that give different results fundamentally to any other? If you do a split, which one and why?

Pic semi related.

I don't subscribe to the deadlift being a pull
>>
imo push/pull is a meme and doesn't really matter but some people swear by it so

i think brosplit is most aesthetic as it has a lot of focus on upper body instead of legs

>>35097546
Well it sure as fuck isn't a push. What next dimension does it belong it?
