Powerlifter here, where should I throw in cleans on my program and what set/rep ranges should I use? 5x3 sounds pretty standard but here's my thing as of now. I've made really good progress doing this shit so don't fuck with my whole program just hint at me where I should put my cleans.
Also just for the record I'm 6'1'' and hovering just under or over 200lbs

Has anyone on fit had a brain tumor? If so what were your symptoms? I'm seeing a neurologist Tomorrow
>>34526595
Why do you think you have a tumor anon? I hope that's not the case.
That's scary shit. One of my fears that occasionally sparks existential panic. I freaked out getting my chest x-rayed to verify that I had (minor) scoliosis, thinking they'd find a tumor instead. I hope it ends up being nothing anon!
>>34526595
I don't think I have a brain tumor but sometimes I smell weirdly specific smells all of a sudden with no obvious source and then it goes away. Makes me wonder.

I feel like this is something that could really improve my diet as I can't cook for shit and it's hard to be very consistent eating out every other meal, But I'm a kind of stumped in regards to what to order, so I need suggestions for some...

Can /fit/ explain me this?
>squats 4x5 at 115kg (253 lbs)
Quads and hams sore as fuck for two days. No lower back doms whatsoever.
>squats 3x3 at 140kg (308 lbs)
Lower back sore as fuck day after. Legs fresh like squats never happened.
Form breakdown.
>>34526200
shit form
As other have said, bad form. I almost took a trip to snap city by turning a squat into a good morning trying to PR.
I stopped dieting and was able to maintain my leanness for a few month but recently i have been trying to eat a little more to gain weight
i look a little puffier and my waist isnt as small i have gained some fat but my weight hasnt changed at all
im no weaker or smaller i dont get whats going on i havent really been eating a whole lot more than normal just like 200kcal more or somthing
whats goingon should i increase my cals? i dont want ot get too fat
>capcha select all the doghnuts
weight is not just fat+muscle. it is also water retention. depending on how many carbs you store in your muscle tissues, you can weight up to 8lbs over average.
so you've become less carb-loaded and lost water weight, coincidentally your fat has gone up by the same amount.
>>34525842
thanks for the reply man
helped alot its been playing on my mind for ages
>>34525859
yeah it takes me about 3 days to get down from fighting weight to scale weight. without doing anything extreme if i stop eating assloads of rice and oatmeal, i'll be 6-10 pounds lighter in that time.
weight loss is a dumb goal.
I'm 6' and 180lbs.
Is 3000 kcal too much for bulking when my only activity is going to the gym 3 times per week while sitting in class all day and barely any walking?
>>34525332
unless you're juicing you don't need anything more than 300 kcal surplus / day
>weigh yourself
>eat 3000 kcal for a week
>weigh yourself again
>did i gain more than 1 lb?
>if yes, 3000 is too much
>>34525332
that pic's bullshit because it's a known fact fats are more satiating than carbs
is there any benefits in stop drinking alcohol, even for moderate drinkers?
Alcohol has 16 calories per gram, 7 calories more than fat, with 0 benefits.
Well alcohol have 0 positive effect on your body its literally posion, why would you not benefit anything by qutting posion?
>>34525081

Can you really go from doing 5 pushups to 100 in six weeks?
I doubt it, and I don't see why you would want to.
>>34524686

Hey /fit/
Read the sticky, didn't find answer for my question. Is there a way to lose anymore fat by diet or should I start going to the gym which is unlikely for me due to my lack of free time?
Drink bleach you lazy fat fuck.
>>34523847
Good joke anon
>>34523847
3x a week, 1 hour each session is all you need, make time
Do this whilst eating at a calorie deficit
Started working out a year ago. was a week fat ass. Just benched 225 for the first time last weekend. but im still fat. what kind of cardio should I be doing????
>>34523708
i think you shouldn't worry about cardio until you're already losing weight only by diet
having said that, greg nuckols wrote about cardio for strength trainees and he'll have you do something like 20 minutes on the bike (search the article)
>>34523708
Sounds like me starting out. I just posted in the running thread. I'm a big and tall guy. I started at 300lbs fat and 6'4". I'm now about 230 at my leanest, but I put on a lot of muscle. It took about 5 years.
I went for strength first before cutting down like you. I'm very endomorphic. I put on muscle super easy, but my body just does not like letting go of fat. So I have to work in cardio into my weekly routine to create the deficit or break even. I jog 3 miles in 30 min twice a...

How do people eat 2000 in a day
holy jebus
>>34523702
try eating the meatier parts of your feces.
>>34523702
You only eat 1 cup of oatmeal for breakfast?
My breakfast is that + 3 eggs.
>can of spinach
>>34523702
I make a omlette, 4 eggs, ham, spring onion, Sweetcorn and half of one of those giant dauglsage things. 1000calories. easy.
/Cutting/ general
What would be better on a cut? Doing 5x5 (SS for example) vs. Brosplit with 10-16 sets per muscle? 5x5 uses more complex muscle groups which burn more calories right? But brosplit has way more sets and you can train without rest days. Help /fit/
>>34523635
an intelligent bro-y split.
Push pull legs, do a heavy compound and work up to a minimum weight triple, then just lots of isolation.
Do stuff with tempo of contraction, really try and target weaker muscles. I was able to really grow training this way in my last cut, lost strength of course but thats a given.
You wont progress on 5x5 if you are cutting, and it is very disheartening to come in and be weaker each time.
This is advice for someone who already is strong and is cutting, if you are a...

should probably add that im not strong, i've lifted for about a month without diet in chech so basically the only thing that sets me apart from first timers is i know form. i currently do chest/triceps back/biceps legs/shoulder could this work? also forgetting the fact that you wont progress on 5x5 would it burn more calories?
>>34523717
bump because you are me
I heard that a lot of people at the gym take steroids and or xanax..What is the point of xanax for muscle building? Does it give you muscles "full relaxation" when sleeping. I took 1mg of this shit and was BTFO.
and how bout ADD medicine. shoulnt that be the best preworkout? get you super focused?
>>34523685
if you want your heart to explode out of your chest while also not having an appetite to eat anything for the day, SURE!
>>34523626
I'm prescribed it and take it rarely when I can't sleep.
I don't see how alprozolam would have any positive effect towards bodybuilding.
