Should you make sure you didn't get her pregnant before dumping her so she doesn't use the pregnancy against you as an excuse to stay with her?
>>37622430
Jesus what kind of women does fit date that theyre actually worried shit like this will happen in everyday life.
>>37622430
sauce? :_D
>>37622435
this happened to me :)
you bet your fucking ass i screenshot the next time she told me she came up negative on the pregnancy test
I know this doesn't sound impressive but i was 300 pounds. Not able to squat all the way down.
After 3 weeks of doing deadlifts and rows and dropping 50 pounds i can now do a full squat pretty easily
Thanks fit
I'm gonna make it
Good job man, keep at it and you'll be squatting 3pl8 like a champ in no time!
Awesome man. Keep it up.
You're going to feel like a million bucks when you do your first set.

Realistically, do you need protien powders and other various supps?
>>37622363
I don't take any
Supplements*
And no, you don't NEED them.
Protein powder is helpful for the fact it allows you to get in more protein without any effort of preparing/cooking a proper meal.
You'll be doing A LOT of cooking of meat, fish, poultry etc, if you don't eat protein powder at all.
The only supplement that is worth it's price is testosterone supplementation via injections
The rest is just broscience
So I'm 6'1 133 lbs. I probably get somewhere under 3000 calories a day. If I add in a whole jar of Jiffy peanut butter a day, which is somewhere around 4750 calories, could I just add that into my diet and nothing else? And how quickly would I gain weight?
>>37622338
youll get tons of fat and not that much muscle with that much excess calories.
you should take a moderate amount of steroids if you plan on bulking up from skeleton tho, a miracle will happen.
You can eat a lot of peanut butter but a whole jar will just make you fat. Just go for around 3500 if you stay at 133 with around 3000.
And lift alot of weights
>>37622338
Get the smaller jar of a peanut butter where the ingredients are just peanuts.
Warning though: that much excess fat creates awful shits.
If you weigh 200lbs and you do 15 body-weight dips and 15 body-weight chin-ups, is that the equivalent to do 200lbs bench press and 200lbs lat-pull down for 15 reps?
>>37622246
totally dude, you got the math down to the point
That's not the equivalent for benching, but do pull ups instead and you're good
>>37622246
The push ups are easier because you aren't really lifting all your bodyweight. The closer your bodyweight is to your feet is the less distance it moves during a push up, therefore the less work you are doing.
The chin ups are probably harder because you have to "balance" yourself under the bar, and with the way the arm is built, you have to stabilize yourself as your center of gravity swings under the bar as your humerus goes from mostly vertical to mostly horizontal.
Also, don't...

>mfw family history of back problems

>mfw I will never make it
>>37622157
Just do leg press and hyperextensions instead. Unless you're training for strength.
>>37622157
what do you have against black people you fucking racist?
>>37622323
woah that's a rare pepe, mind if i add it to my rare pepe folder?
Which works the chest more/harder?
Neither, all you gains are lost from the weight to the weight selector, to the cables, through the pulley system, into the shaft, out onto the metal bars, onto the arms, through the handles, into the rubber grips. Now you are just moving 5% of the actual weight you should be lifting.
>>37622020
Meh, If I ever do that, I'd do the lower one since your shoulders are lower. Mine are fucked up and the higher one is painful. So I guess the 2nd one.
>>37622020
Dips and dumbbell bench
I have a really fucked up knee and one of my greatest fears is that I'll be doing a squat and my knee will crumble and disintegrate under myself.
Because of this, I can't do squats or deadlifts or stuff like that that puts too much stress on my knees. What are some workouts I can do to compensate for that?
what happened to it?
FWIW it took me around 3 years to get over the mental block that I had with squats, but I did it in the end
>>37622016
Long story short: when I was a kid I jumped over a wall and heard a loud pop from my knee. Shrugged it off because it didn't hurt. About a day later it started to hurt really bad, realized my bones were out of place. Never went to the hospital because I was a dumb kid. 15 years later my bones are still obviously out of their proper position but the only real negative part is every blue moon it'll ache a little. Still afraid it'll crumble under me if I put too much pressure on it
>>37622027
I don't think you actually dislocated it like you think. Your long term knee health will be improved by weight training it, AFTER you get clearance from a physician. They'll probably need an x-ray at least, but if there's any structural weakness then an MRI.
Where is the pain and what makes it start up? Keep in mind that people just doing regular athletics like jumping or sprinting sometimes get knee pain and it's not always a result of shit gone horribly wrong.
fapping make us weak and feel like shit, discuss
Well provide more than once sentance to start an intelligent discussion you benis head.
No articles, no studies. Nothing.

Very light burns and scrapes, minor lacerations. Everything I've tried so far is having almost no effect. Any ideas anons?
>>37621799
See a bloody doctor.
>>37621805
This guy...
>>37621805
it isn't that type of situation, medical help isn't needed just wondering if I've overlooked something.
Hey /fit/ help me out.
I'm really faggy and thought I was a trans girl for awhile so I've been on HRT for nearly a year. I've decided that it's not working out though and I'd like to try being masculine for a change.
I don't know anything about /fit/ness, what kind of workouts should I do to manup and how should I eat? I'm 5'11 and weigh like 130lbs. right now and the estrogen has atrophied what little muscle I had so I really don't know where to start. I don't think I've ever been inside a gym in my life.
You already fucked up by falling for the meme, your body is probably irreversably fucked to shit.
Sorry.
We've got a sticky I suggest you check out, it's fairly in depth but it'll address everything youre looking for.
Height/weight? Goals?

You obviously lack commitment so why bother?
hello everyone. My name is Mark. I have a question that maybe some of you kids would be able to answer
I am looking for a pair of headphones to use at the gym. I have been interchanging pairs for almost 15 years but I just haven't been able to find anything that hits the sweet spot. I'm looking for something that is
1) wireless
2) great sound quality
3) firm yet comfy (not falling off during heavylift sets)
4) long battery life
Keep the prices no more than $200 please. If you don't have a an optimal solution, then please post what...

Hello Mark
>wireless headphones
REEEEEE
But anyways, go to /hpg/ over at /g/. They'll be able to help you much better than anyone here, Mark.
Wireless will never sound good. Even top of the range wireless sounds terrible. Anyone who says otherwise is deaf, lying, or from the future.
Get a wired pair and put your player in your pocket or around your arm or sew a pocket somewhere. You will get better sound with a $30 pair of canalphones than wireless shit costing $200.
