Has /fit/ ever had a true shoulder impingement? Did they actually cure it? I have had it for 6-7 months now and it still bothers me. I need to figure out how to fix this shit once and for all. I do the shoulders down and back thing all day but idk if its really helping. I need this shit fixed so I can get back to lifting. Please help
look you need to both keep the inflammation down in the shoulder joint and strengthen the rotator cuff and deltoid
800mg Advil 2-3 times daily for 5 days
take with food or protein shake
absolutely 0 gym time during this time
give the joint time to rest and heal any damage you've already caused
for lifts
keep elbows in during bench press
avoid incline bench press and incline dumbbell press
avoid sitting dumbbell press
look up proper form of standing overhead press, biggest thing is to shrug your shoulders during the movement,...

in reply to my above comment
http://stronglifts.com/overhead-press/
follow the form described there exactly
3 sets is enough 4 too much to start
go for 8 reps each set

I cant afford a therapist but I saw a ortho 1 time and he prescribed me with epidural which is like a advil on steroids. Would that work too?
Would you train in the gravity chamber, /fit/?
>>37607643
No. Consider your joints dust.
>>37607643
actually curious rn
would actual weights be less effective than a gravity chamber, or the exact same?
>>37607643

First time here and desu I'm looking for the thing that inspires people to become fit, I've found mine but I want to know what others define as their purpose for getting fit.

tbqh its because i hate myself
>>37607430
Tbh
>>37607430
That's what motivates me brah. I hate how the last couple of years have been for me, that's my groove now. Get into life. "Get not fat, get fit."
Bro-science aside, is there really any point in doing anything other than Flat Bench Vs Incline Bench in terms of muscular development?
Right now I do both, but really want to focus on flat benching 3 times a week to bring my bench up...this means I'll have to stop doing incline bench for now. Will this have a negative impact on my upper chest even if I am getting stronger and stronger at flat bench?
anterior delts get worked more
if you want to flat bench for the sake of improving your flat bench. specific adaptation to imposed demand if gonna make your flat bench better.
if you're trying to build up ant delt because it is what is lacking aesthetics wise then you should keep incline.
>>37607399
Well I do Push-Presses and lateral raises for delts......hence why I really need to drop 1 major pressing movement in order to allow for more progress on specifically flat benching.
Now I dont want to drop Push-Press....it'll have to be Incline bench...
I recently switched from Flat bench to Incline bench just to bring my OHP up, aside from that Flat bench can hit upper pecs just as well with proper activation.
New to /fit/ not sure what your idea on calisthenics is but tell me, will I ever gain any weight with that? I am pretty skinny and from what Ive heard its harder to grow than with lifting weights.
My story: started about a year ago for a couple of months, was able to get from 0 pullups to 3 sets of 10 pull ups. but didnt rly get weight and didnt observe a visible progress. then I stopped
Now I am exercising again but still have doubts if I it's worth it- this time I am eating a bit better but still not sure if it's just the diet thing or if doing only...

You will gain some weight, but once you adapt enough without progressive overload you won't get much bigger. There's a lot of things you can do to make a certain exercise harder as you go along though, you can take it pretty far. But will you get HYOOGE? No.
>>37607404
ok but getting in a shape like guy on the pic is possible without gym oris it a lie?

Any veteran vegan builders on /fit/ I can ask questions to?
They've probably all died of malnutrition by now
hol up
what's stopping someone from claiming to be vegan on YouTube, but just eating animal products camera?
i could literally do that right now
>>37607237
He clearly hopped on the extra gains boosting train. Probably uses it to prove how effective vegan lifestyle is. What a fagget

One time I was at somebody's house and he had a piano so I started playing and everyone was enjoying it. I usually hate being the center of attention unless it's me on the keys

Why do grills always focus only on the abs? Is that all they care about?
>girl existed within 100 ft of me a year ago
Yeah she wanted me to fuck her to death
Anyone know how to get rid of chest fat?
It's not gyno I just recently had a visit with a doctor and said it wasn't. Just fat. I thought push-ups and rowing type excerices but I was told it actually makes it worse cause you build muscle more mass. That true?
>>37606730
Same problem here
>rowing
Wat..rowing is a pulling movement has nothing to do with ur chest.
You can't spot reduce, lose fat from everywhere, that's what helped me.
And yes ur chest will add muscle under the fat pushing the fat out more. Looks odd but once u lose the fat its all gucci
>>37606730
Sticky you shitskin
>>37606730
you cant target fat. doing sit ups wont get rid of belly fat, doing push ups wont fix this. just drop a few pounds.
>tfw rest day
What do you do in order for you not to kill yourself on rest day?
>feelsbadman
look up 75 hobbies for men on art of manliness. Go out on long walks in the sun, hell, maybe even socialize.
>>37606599
>tfw not even rest day
what do you do to kill the hours before and after gym time
all i do is play games and watch anime until that time of the day where i have a little bit of meaning to my life
>>37606599
Enjoy the hard work you did the day before and the work yet ahead. Alternatively you could just be yourself :^)

Bumpinnn for zac
>>37606420
you probably have a fuckboy demeanor because he wouldn't have done that otherwise.
>>37606420
You should've challenged him to a duel by fists, that's what real men do
Anyone else wear jockstraps? I just started wearing them and holy shit they are amazing. I should have wore them years ago. I didn't before because I thought it was kinda a way to tell others you are gay (even tho it probably is...). I only started wearing them cause I was getting tired of my underwear riding up my ass and having sweat linger.
>>37606334
Why not just wear compression shorts?
>>37606448
I did but like I said it rode up my ass and it made me sweat more.
>>37606334
>I didn't before because I thought it was kinda a way to tell others you are gay
No, but saving pictures of men wearing them is a sure sign
