It made all my forms perfect and made me flexible enough to suck my own dick.
Was having a discussion with some friends today about lifting and smoking, they said it can help you because you don't get as tired easily, however for me I just feel weak. Was wondering what /fit/ thinks about smoking pot and lifting.
Smoking weed and lifting heavy don't go together.
However doing situps, pullups, and dips are more comfortable doing while high.

Speak for yourself.

It's interesting. Not worse or better - just different
Is it bad to OHP in the squad rack or is it ok?

Who gives a fuck
>>34856071
If theres not an alternative at your gym its fine
If you have stands use those instead

I don't want to be a douche at the gym and piss others off
Daily reminder that standards for women are too high.

He-Man buff
Skeletor a weakling
Somehow a fair fight
Meninist is fucking retarded. No one is actually looking up to He-Man as a standard of beauty for men, while calling a girl a "Barbie" is used all the time.
Who has ever brought He-Man up in the past 10 years?
Winter bulk general all bulkers get in here
If I want to gain 20kg, how long will that take me assuming half of it is muscle and half is fat?
Is this your first day lifting?
Is this your 5th year lifting?
>>34856067
It's my second year lifting, I've just been fucking about though in terms of diet and haven't done a bulk yet
>>34856051
Im sure you know this but your pecs are lacking. Chest day every day from now on.
Guys I don't have a fucking appetite.The fuck is wrong with me? I use to be able to eat 2 extra large double quarter pounder combos from McDonald's with a soda. Now I can barely eat a quarter pounder. I feel hungry but I won't want to eat. I'll literally just won't want to.
This has been happening for about a week now. The ONLY thing that has changed from this week and the last month is that I'm with this cute HBB. Could this be it?
Also I just ate a quarter pounder. This shit only has about 550 calories. I still have a side of fries right next to me but I just don't feel like eating it. I have only eaten about a total of 900 calories in the past 18-20 hours or so.
bu8mp
fuck, no one has been thrlough something like this before ?
If im consistently getting stronger, but not gaining weight, should I still up my calories?
I did read the sticky, and it says to basically just eat more, but I have not gained any weight in these 2 months time but my strength has increased.
Right now im 193lbs
bench-240
Squat 300
DL havnt maxed yet
Ohp 145
I imagine that when my lifts get higher im going to have to gain weight to progress at any reasonable speed.
i spent a little while losing weight to get where i am now, which is a just above skinny fat 193lbs. I lifted the whole time but...

yes
currently you're just getting more efficient and that's good but it's slow and unsustainable for loner periods of time(ie: you won't get to 300 bench that fast if you maintain you current bw)
ifyou aren't in for aesthetics, then bulk up
just don't be that faggot that bulks to 20+%bf
>>34855960
Thanks for the response.
But when i say "just above skinny fat" i meant im a bit fatter than skinny fat so bulking to 20percent plus seems unavoidable, i guess ill just make the judgement call if I get too fat too quick for my own taste.
>>34855960
20% BF is the upper limit for bulking right?
Cause I'm currently at around 13-14%.
I gained around 3kg, now I'm 75kg.
If I eat at small surplus, at what point will I hit 20%?
What's up with my shoulders. My right hangs lower than my left shoulder. I was never diagnosed with scoliosis as a child. So I'm more prone to belive it is a muscular problem and not a skeletal problem. Any advice on fixing this.

Good observation
Why do people take roids? Don't they know they look like utter shit? Not hating just saying, damn.

When will they learn?
Fat Lenny is more like insulin right? Too much fat stored beneath the abs give him that pregnant look.

People with palumboism are few and far between and are the result of growth hormones causing enlarged organs
Most people look a lot bigger and more shredded which can still be a negative to some but not all
Hey /fit/. So I am not really fat but I got a large belly and gyno I think. How do I get rid of this? Any hope for me?

You should not be stalling with those lifts.
Cut all the bullshit, stick with the press, bench, squat, and deadlift, and change deadlift to 1x a week. And change the pull ups to 2 sets. Rotate pull ups with chin ups for bicep gains.
>>34855640
Is that all I can do? I'm already embarrassed to be struggling with this weight, do I really have to make it smaller?
>>34855676
My biceps are good, but my back is weak as shit. Should I do something to supplement back?
Ok /fit/ I've been lifting for about 2 months, I weight 192 and am 6'2 should I bulk ? And so what else do you guys recommend
>>34855383
>192
no, you don't.
>>34855415
Kek yes I do man I don't know where though I do have a big ass
I'm 6'1 180. Don't see how that's possible. Pic related.
>inb4 DYEL
I've been lifting on a deficit for almost 5 months now; stronglifts and keto. I've never lifted seriously before.
This is what I have done in 5 months; everything in pounds:
Body Weight: 260 to 220
Squat: 45 to 235
Bench: 45 to 130
OHP: 45 to 90
Deadlift: 45 to 245
Row: 45 to 180
(The reason I started everything at 45 is because I am pants on head retarded and I didn't know any better when I started.)
Are my OHP and Bench as fucking terrible as I think they are in terms of having had 5 months working on them?
How...

Is this in pounds?
>>34855378
Have you done any of the more difficult progressions and variations of the lifts? i.e. incline, DB, cableflies, supersetting, front/hack squat, power cleans, etc?
Also, if you've hit a plateau on all your lifts with regular sets and reps count, try upping the sets or reps, or run a reverse pyramid periodization.
Let's hear what the rest of /fit/ has to say.
I guess the overall question is whether or not my progress is acceptable given the fact that I am lifting through a deficit.
>>34855509
Yes, everything is.
>>34855535
No. I have not done variations of any of the lifts. And I haven't done any other isolation work, like chinups/dips because I think I'm still too weak to pull it off, and I don't have shit to try them at home, and I'm still scared shitless to try and fail in the gym. I'll get over the feel when I've dropped more weight and I'm confident that I'll be able to pull off 2 or 3 of them in the first set so that I don't look like a complete sad sack.
I feel like my squats have increased so much that they are exhausting me to the detriment of the subsequent lifts. Is it too early to switch squats to 3x5 to save energy so I can get my bench and ohp up?
So I just got fired for being an asshole to my boss. He deserved it but now I'm unemployed and still want to bulk.
What cheap as fuck foods would be good to bulk on while I'm looking for a new job.
