What is the strongest animal a fit and powerful human can kill in a fight to the death without any refined weapons?

Any, just gouge their eyes out with your thumbs.

It gives me constant pain when doing anything that would compress it so to speak.

Why don't you assholes with scoliosis get this diagnosed and corrected when you're a lot younger? Do you just not have parent who took you to get checkups? School nurse didn't check for scoliosis.
See a doctor, OP. But you may be beyond the age where it can be corrected.

Fuck you, I've known since I was 11. But you fucking straight backs make it sound so fucking easy to get corrective surgery. Fuck you.

You have to realize you dated a whore, OP.
After that, it'll be easier. Plus, when I lift, I don't think of anything else, so do the same.

5/3/1 vs SS thread
also--are you supposed to use leg drive for standing military press, and if so, how much leg drive?
>>27760480
>5/3/1 vs SS
you what? how is this even a real question.
Asking this uqestion means you should not be doing 5/3/1
Read Starting Strength you stupid fuck
Using leg drive in a standing press makes it a push press. OHP and military press should be strict
i want to do SS but rippetoe sounds like a massive autist, particularly considering he unironically touts that GOMAD shit.
as for 5/3/1, look at this: http://www.t-nation.com/free_online_article/sports_body_training_performance/how_to_build_pure_strength ("5/3/1 and Discontents" section)
idk about this author either. what is it with the modified 90% 1RM max that you use to base your workouts on? I'm not saying his science or ideas are bad, but the way he defends this point with all kinds of fallacies, sounding like an idiot, and never actually addressing...

Bored Medfag. First year EM resident. If you have a medical question or something wrong with you, perhaps you want a second opinion, I'm here for the next 45 minutes or so.

Hey /fit/,
What is your showering routine?
Mine is as follows:
-Get naked
-Put soap on face
-Turn on shower (cold)
-Rinse face
-Put shampoo in hair (and leave it)
-Use remaining shampoo (and more if necessary) to wash all body hair, mostly my pubes.
-Apply bodywash and rinse
-Rinse hair
-Dry off with two towels
-Get naked
-Shower with cold water
-No soap
-No shampoo
-Get out
-Walk around apartment naked until drip dry
That's how a man showers. And it's better for your gains and skin than all that snake oil.

You keep pushing yourself.
At some point it becomes easy and then you push yourself more to do greater things.
There is no easy way you gotta go through the process

"Inspiration" is counter productive. If ever the thought comes into your head "it's time to turn this all around," banish it immediately. You need to start being productive just because that's a mode that you exist in, not a state that you inhabit from time to time.

And if you can't accept that, don't worry about it. The world will always need ditch diggers and shoe shiners.
1) is it a good idea to do bench/OHP same or on consecutive days?
2) is there anything wrong with starting off a workout with a max attempt to see where you're at? i.e. going for bench PR every second or third bench workout when youre feeling good, then doing your planned workout afterwards?
3) home gym masterrace -- anything wrong with performing heavy sets of exercise with 10-20 min computer breaks in between if you're just trying to increase muscle mass and aren't faced with a time constraint?
thx 4 help but NO MANLETS PLZ
samefagging for science
>>27709680
1. Consecutive? Depends on your work load. If you're going for strength and were lifting at your maximum you need to have a day of rest in between. If you're going for reps/mass it shouldn't be a problem.
2. Yes, very wrong. Skipping warmups increases risk of injury and poor form. Besides, you'll be able to lift more once your muscles have more blood flowing to them.
3. 10-20 minute rest seems excessive. I doubt you're lifting enough to require them. Besides, even if you did...

tyvm for the input, but as for number two, i meant with an adequate warmup for a max attempt, and then continuing with a workout. i was asking more along the lines of "will going for a 1rm max and then doing a workout inhibit sick gainz?"
for someone who is dedicated and has at least a few years of lifting experience where progress is slow, i can see only testing max once every several months making a lot more sense, but this question is aimed more towards those beginners out there such as myself...

I'd recommend going on accutane mate
Cleared mine for good after 6 months
>>27700190
she was obviously implying you don't get acne as bad as you have it without taking roids; not that you're to big to be natty. dumbass
>>27700190
Can't answer your question OP, but I was wondering if any of you guys had any experience with creams for hyperpigmentation scars left by acne. This shit's worse than the acne itself imo.

Let's get a self-improvement thread going, /fit/. Things that improve your fitness in life.
First, if you have the chance, charge your phone. Worried about saving power? The coal is going to burn anyways, so don't feel guilty. Doing this will eliminate the worry for having enough battery left for that one emergency phone call, as well as make you the hero when everyone else's phone in the elevator is dead.
Wash your face. Morning, night, middle of the day, too. It'll keep you awake and aid the reduction of acne.
If you're working,...

Anyway, you are right about porn. Vanilla stuff is never enough, and after some time you start looking for some hardcore shit to get off. I can't believe what kind of shit I jerked off to, holy shit.
Eventually you end up as a hermit with some sick habits and erectile dysfunction because you can't get hard unless there is some really grotesque shit presented.
I got hired as a cashier and I'm socially retarded and have no friends and can't make conversation. How do I get good? Also, how do I get good at selling customers to register for a store debit card

Pressing/Planche Variations
- Pushups (Normal/Diamond/Pseudo-planche/Tuck-Planche)
- Dips
- Handstand Pushups (Elevated pike/Headstand/Handstand)

Pulling
- Rows
- Chin/Pull Up variations
- Rope climbing
Legs
- Pistol Squats
- Shrimp Squats
- Lunges
Core Strength (First 4 should be held for 3-5 sets for 60s each with little rest (1-2 min) between sets. 30s sets are fine for L-sits and pseudo-planche leans). The rational for the short rest period is that these are basic positions that you should be very comfortable in.
- Plank Variations (Forearm/Straight-Arm/Pseudo-planche Leans)
- Hollow Body Hold
- Arch Body Hold (don’t do this if you have low back issues)
