Can anyone post Swolefield?
Sup /fit/. Back for another round of your questions. Anything fitness/diet related. Try to keep it on topic.
If you still don't know who I am, I'm a PhD Biochemist with extensive knowledge of human metabolism. Any lifting questions are welcomed, I've also been lifting since undergrad studies.
>>31589745
bump. Come with your questions, friends.
>>31589745
Why do people still eat carbohydrates?
>>31589773
>implying carbs are bad if you're not an obese person sitting on the couch all day
Does /fit/ agree about Arnold's stance on the direction of bodybuilding? That the mass monsters are reaching undesirable proportions, and that it should start heading back towards the aesthetic of the Golden age?
>>31553937
Yes.
>>31553937
Bodybuilding should be about aesthetics and size, not just size.
>>31553964
What about people like Phil or Kai, or maybe even Shawn Ray? Still massive in size, but sill a decent aesthetic?
>>31553937
Of course! Really, I just want to see roids removed from the sport. Would fix most problems IMO
So im joining a rock climbing club, will this affect my workout, for better or worse. Anyone else do rock climbing.
>>31544255
it's fucking awesome for your core
you will also get forearms of steel
and most importantly, it's fun. really fun
>>31544255
you can be a good climber, but you'll have to start skipping leg day. seriously,
and it's always cutting season
stretchiness is important
core training is important
don't forget to use your legs
your tendons will also be constantly damaged
>>31545011
why skipping leg day?
Let's get a thread of these /fit/, bonus points if you post the Supermang one.
I only have Mong and Ripp.

/r/ing the simple one with the feel guy saying "I'd rather be at home doing squats" and "the music is too loud, my feet hurt"
How do you guys do this, I mean when the macros are on the back sure but otherwise how are you this neurotic.
Lifting. How do you guys do this, I mean you're carrying groceries sure but otherwise how are you this neurotic.
Try not being so insulting to start a thread thanks, but it's called dedication, there are aps to do the math for you and really makes it quite easy as well as when you get used to it it's second nature.
By using myfitnesspal, it does all the hard shit for you
Can you improve your jawline?
how did zyzz do it? his face went from a 5/10 to a 10/10
>>31545387
Pretty sure that Zyzz had surgery to make his look awesome
>>31545387
Jaw closed, tongue up.
Zyzz got jaw surgery, and veneers, and took a million different drugs
What are /fit/'s thoughts on meditation?
Watch this video first:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aw71zanwMnY
Might also help with gains and overall motivation?
I try to incorporate it into my daily schedule but I don't have the patience yet. But yeah it's a good way to start and end your day.
I think it's bretty good. Wish I could do it more consistently. I don't know why I avoid doing it everyday.There is really no excuse to set aside 10 minutes a to do it. If I do it properly before an intense workout it improves my mental toughness and increases my recovery time enough to be noticeable,
Waste of time.
Anyone try soaking oatmeal overnight?
Supposed to be much better than quick oatmeal that I use.
>>31534677
and why do you think that? does it make an actually difference?
It wouldn't take the entire night. I just had steel cut oats this morning, just soaked in water for 5-7 minutes, stir and enjoy. If adding any fruit etc do so after it has been softened.
Is cooking it in milk bad?
Cook book recommendations
Also, Does anyone have links to good cook book PDFs?
How have you improved yourself this week/month/year? Lifting isn't life, a well-balanced human being is productive, has hobbies, pushes him/herself to succeed, is charismatic, and strives to live the best life they can. Share your successes, failures, methods, and everything in between.
The sticky is divided like so:
>Recommended Readings.
>Some tips to get your life back on track.
>Study and Career.
>To-do list habit.rpg (If you’re TOTALLY Lost. Start with this one)
>Focus and meditation
>Finance
Basic Recommendations:
>Have a productivity Framework that is flexible. A mindset that gets you going.
>Use a calendar, like google calendar. Hours and shit for things YOU WILL DO.
>Learn to focus.
>Meditate.
>Do routines for things you should do periodically/daily, this should cover daily things or weekly chores such as laundry, cleaning, shopping.
>Identify and Eliminate conflicts within yourself.
>Focus on identifying the time wasters in your life and eliminate them.
>Focus on the essentials. If you try to do everything at once you’ll burnout. Little by little.

Material reading can be tricky. There will be trash here and there as we're not /lit/.
But we have to trust others.
Image related has a detailed list that an Annon provided on a thread a while back. If you got time to kill, click on the image, and read the descriptions
As time goes, the /SIG/ has had a couple of books recommended. I’ve done my best to try to get talks of the authors of such books so you can get a ‘piece’ before you commit.
Google a bit about the book, if you think you can get something out of it, watch the talk.
In my opinion, try getting the books “for free”.
If you read it and get something out of it, consider paying for the book.

>Freedom is having control of your life
You should at least have 3 hobbies/activities.
-One that will pay the bills, gets food on your table
-One that will keep you in shape. (lower you faggot)
-One that you're passionate about and might be able to develop into a career.
--------
If you're into lifting, taking the tips to better yourself should be simple; as you already have built some self-discipline.
Make peace with yourself and the way things are right now.
Stop thinking the world owes you, how destiny ‘fucked you over’, how those guys have it easier.
Accept things as they are, realize that life is cruel and your circumstances are the ones you were given. You can’t do shit about the starting point, but you can move forward.
Don’t focus in what was given to you, focus in what you’ll achieve.
Eliminate the things you dislike about yourself, about your life. Is as simple as, do you enjoy your job? No? Take steps to change the feeling.
How are you gonna make that? You either make your job more enjoyable, or you change jobs. Simple.
You want a girl? how do you plan to achieve that? Are you too socially inept? Work on that.
Are you piss poor and can’t afford a decent living? Work on that too.
No matter who you are, where you are in your life, or how fucked up you think you are.
You can improve your life. Take control. Move forward.
Dreams keeps us alive, fighting for them makes us feel alive.
About 5-7 years ago, I was a fucking train-wreck.
Right now, I'm doing fairly well.
Get some discipline, set some goals and a way to achieve them.
Cultivate yourself, learn stuff, get your shit together.
And realize, understand. None is coming to save you.
You got to make your way through.
You NEED to take CONTROL.

A month ago I shaved my head and bought some weights
Hey guys,
so basically I'm a poor student and I've had to cut down on food and most of what I eat are tic-tacs that I get really cheap (my dad works in the factory) so I've been thinking if I could bulk with tic-tacs
since each one is one calorie I'd need to eat 2700 tictacs a day to bulk which again would cost a lot less than actual food
also I've thought if I eat the mint ones for breakfast I could save on mouth hygiene products,
thoughts?
guys I need an answer I need to place an order for the tic tacs soon
>>31505941
that's the most funny bait i've seen in a while
Go for 10000 tictacs, just to be on the safe side
Post any recipes you want fit, shakes, dishes, baking, w.e.
