> What do you take - Why
Does it work?
> Zinc - Testosterone
Haven't noticed a change
> Vitamin D - Testosterone/Bone Gains
Haven't noticed a change
> Melatonin - Sleep Gains (Only Occasionally)
Puts me right to sleep.
> St. John's Wort - Depression
Only been on it a few days, no noticeable difference. Supposedly it takes a while to kick in.
> other daily supps: resveratrol, raw garlic, green tea, raw unprocessed cocoa, curcumin, vitamin d, vitamin c, b vitamins mix, multivitamin, zinc, magnesium, fish oil, l-citrulline, spirulina, 5-HTP
My two main focuses are lowering depression and heart disease risk (inherited shitty heart disease genetics).

Have serotonin receptor damage from heavy concussions in sports I played while I was younger. Caused me major depression. That linked with my family history of diabetes means my Magnesium and Zinc levels were abysmal.
Take supps for it now instead of SSRIs and it really has been life changing.
>>35095072
Notice any dick gains from Zinc?
>"Oh, what's that, you're doing lowbar "squats" with 405 lbs, or as we Olympic Weight-Lifting gentlesirs prefer to call them: Good-mornings with 180 kilograms?"
>"It is quite the sight, now please observe as I work up to my one-rep max of a mind-blowing sixty kilograms"
>"Oh no good sir, I am in no way "DYEL", for these are actual full squats"
>"Quite indeed good sir; I not only break parallel, but I also abhor the use of crutches like belts and knee sleeves"
>"By this virtue alone, I am stronger than you, for you see, no mindless cretin "power-lifter" can aspire to lift weight as cumbersome as this with equally flawless technique - You quite simply do not have the mental fortitude, as evidenced by you seeking the path of least resistance with your ridiculous "squats", which barely hit parallel"

Did you guys know this funny green man is 6'7? He honestly has pretty good gains for his height too bad his genetics suck.
>>35094674
He's 170lbs at 6'7?
>>35094674
no he doesn't. he's been curling for 7 years and has decent arms. rest of him looks like shit and he has woman legs
Pretty sure he's 6'3". Still, good gains for his height.
I've been thinking about it for a week now and I can't realy decide.
I'll make it quick. I love boxing and I love lifting.
On one hand, there's this boxing gym near my house (like 4 minutes by walk) with a good trainer and some shitty lifting equipment. (At least there are lifting equipments)
On the other hand. Well, a pretty nice gym but that's 30 minutes from home with public transport. Good thing is that I go there whenever I want while boxing, there's a specific schedule.
I'm a student and I can't do both at the same time.
Deep down I know boxing is the best choice since you learn how to fight but Iv'e been lifting for so long that it's a hard decision to make.
What are you goals? Do you want to compete in boxing or a lifting sport? Do you want general fitness? Do you want to do a bodybuilding pageant? It all depends on your goals.
>>35094557
That's the fucking problem. As a kid I always wanted to be the strongest motherfucker when after I watched Bruce Lee and Rocky's movies for the first times.
But I also want to look good with my shirt off.
>>35094598
If you want to be that strongest, then lift wrights. Boxing will make you stronger, but you won't be the strongest that you can possibly be.
However, you could look decent with a shirt off if you did boxing and did some weights on the side as you mentioned they have equipment.
Is it good for weight loss? Is it good at all?
>>35094438
Its shit, just buy some 100% fruit juice and eat some veggies
low sodium v8 is good, but nothing beats water for weight loss
>>35094438
just take a multi with a glass of water tbhfam
Mirin' thread. I don't have any because nothing crazy happen recently but I've been getting lustful eye fucks from girls in the gym as usual.
Share your mirin' stories breh. This is the reason we lift.
>girl looked at me today
>>35094466
There's a difference between a regular look and a look where she's smiling winking, licking her lips and looking down from shyness and blush.
Haven't posted here in a while.
This counts as a mire right?
Does weed effect gainz?
Good for cutting your brain fat
If I wanted humor I'd just ask you what your one rep maxes are.
>>35094461
>implying it kills brain cells
literally the opposite of true.
only proven effect is neurogenesis.

>Does weed effect gainz?
affect*
and no, it doesn't
no beneficial affect, and no detrimental affect.
at least not pharmacologically.
some people feel they can push themselves harder and feel better while stoned.
some feel it makes them lethargic and lazy.
if you are the former, it is good for you, if the latter it is not.
just see how it affects you.
also you shouldn't carbonize marijuana ever.
polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are no joke
Hey /fit/ I'm going to be pretty limited on equipment for a bit, are there any decent dumbbell-only routines?
Nope.
>>35094423
>Hey /fit/ I'm going to be pretty limited on equipment for a bit, are there any decent dumbbell-only routines?
not... really..
but technically you can do everything with dumbbell you can do with barbell, except squats and cleans
pretty hard to get heavy enough dumbbells to deadlift though, desu
>>35094440
and even then, you can do goblet squats and dumbbell pistol squats and shit...
not great, but better than nothing, especially if you combine it with plyo work (box jumps and squat hops and such)
Which tea do you guys generally use? Oolong Tea or Earl Grey? Or something else?
pic unrelated
Earl grey because it's widely available.
Lapsang souchong if I can get it.
Green Tea master race. Lord Zyzz says so.
>>35094388
oolong because it is tastiest.
>>35094409
oolong is green tea on gear.
How do I go from being a little skinny faggot sissy to something that's going to make me feel masculine again?

What shoes does /fit/ wear to the gym? Custom Reeboks got stolen so I wear vans now. Which is good because zero cushioning?
Pic related.
converse chucks
hard flat sole is good for you. Those vans should work.
asics matflex IIIs, they're tight and supportive and have a hard flat sole.
I really would like to get a pair of weightlifting shoes though, but am pretty unversed in them.
>>35094191
Vans sk8-hi
I tie the shoe lace around my ankle for that ankle support. Went to the reebok outlet and they had a buy one shoe get one for $20 special
I just took pic related about 10 minutes ago
First time taking any sort of preworkout product. It's just the sample that came with my ON protein. I would usually just have black coffee and some fruit
My face is tingling and I feel anxious. What the fuck is this shit.
Anyway whats your preworkout if any?
I guess I should go fucking lift
Worst pre-workout I've ever tried for face-tingling. BEEEEEES
lol that shit literally gave me a stroke. A "small" stroke called a TIA, but a stroke none the less.
I got the tingling face and the anxiety too. I'll stick to coffee from now on.
just a reminder: check if your preworkout has creatine. If you take creatine and also a pwo with creatine, you'll get too much and can say RIP to your hair
Holy Jesus fucking Christ /fit/, so just now I decided that my 5'8" 270Lbs fat ass self start to actually try to lose some weight. I just finished jogging for 20 minutes and I feel like I'm gonna slowly die at any moment, Jesus /fit/ how the fuck can you guys do that everyday!? I really want to but fuck me man I know I can't do it myself. I'm gonna need some boosters like protein shakes or something. Anyways help me /fit/ I need the support to do this tomorrow and the day after etc.
>pic unrelated
it gets easier with practice, like all things. Then you increase your speed or mileage.
Read the fucking sticky, learn to count calories and keep a daily caloric budget. Best of luck.
>>35094058
Do it for the girls, OP
>>35094058
steroids help recovery
>always been thin skinny lanky Skelton

>recently eat as much as I can on thanksgiving night and night before and after
>lose 4 pounds
>keep eating a bunch to try to make it up
>lost another 1.5 pounds
Going to get a blood test when I go in to my doctors appointment in two weeks
On the possibility that I do have a tapeworm, is it necessarily that bad to have one?
>>35093990
Wow so you ate a lot for THREE whole days and didn't gain weight??? Oh my god!!!
>>35094004
Well, how about I just knock you flat on you're ass you troll, that sound any better to you? Just name the time and the place and I'll be there.
>>35093990
How about you forget worrying what the scale says, and maybe look in a mirror
>or even get a tape measure.
Mfw cut is a bitch.
