How do I increase my core strength?
do you compete in weighted crunch 1rep max competitions or something?
>>36790125
Work your core.

So I'm about to start a beginner training program but I don't know if I should pick SS or Greyskull
What is better?

Greyskul just tells you what accessory exercises to do instead of allowing you the flexibility to choose your own like ss does.
Since you're a braindead faggot that needs to be told exactly what to do every step of the way, I'd go with that one.

I am afraid that SS will leave my waist up body to the dust
I need a program that would give me a wider frame
Waist fag
So what happens if i just don't eat for a weekend? Im hitting the weights hard but i cant knock off the last bit of flab, will not eating anything help, or will weird shit happen?
Just take some clen
Your body will go oh shit and store any food you eat soon after as fat
I think
dont try and rush things bigboy. starving yo self could cause cravings.
eat some filling foods that are low in calories instead.
>be me.
>go lift with my father.
>he's almost 60.
>we both have been training martial arts all our lifes.
>he sees me doing 2pl8 for 3x5
>says lifting heavy weights will make me slow.
>he does 1pl8 for like 10x10 when he's stronger than me.
I don't even bother trying to debate him, old people are stubborn as fuck.
>>36789799
I was talking about bench press by the way.
I hate old people. They say millenials are the entitled generation. I've never seen such a lazy, manipulative, entitled group of people as I have with boomers.
>>36789799
He is right you fucking moron
Lifting big weights WILL make you slower at any fighting, better to do lighter for fast explosive reps
A few of you may remember me from when I was pregnant. So I cut down like 15 pounds just to get rid of the stomach. It's almost gone but should I just keep cutting until the middle of May then bulk or vice versa?
Lift
Have you tried lifting weights? It generally helps when bulking or cutting.
Are you still falling victim to the coffee-Jew? Did you cut if from your diet?
Is coffee a gains goblin?

>stalling on every compound
>do everything outside the gym right (diet, sleep)
>doing 3x5 or 5x5 with accessories
>getting adequate rest
>have been stalling for a couple weeks
>not even at 1/2/3/4
Wtf I just want to get to 1/2/3/4 why the fuck am I stalling???? I was told to do 3x5 or 5x5 until I reach 1/2/3/4
What do?
Check strength standards
For one, 1/2/3/4 is very imbalanced. For two, 1/2/3/4 is reachable on linear progression depending on the lifter.
A 100kg Bench by a guy who weighs 65kg is more impressive than a guy who weighs 100kg.
>For one, 1/2/3/4 is very imbalanced
what'would be balanced then?
>>36789730
if you stall on 5x5 I'd recommend switiching to texas method.
also everything >>36789756 said is true.
Is salami pepperoni and cheese ok to consume when you're cutting even though its all fat as long as you are at a calorie deficit. Had a bmt footlong today and I'm noided

>>36789165
loose weight
>>36789173
As opposed to tight weight?
>>36789165
Stop putting so much stress on them fatty
is a workout that doesn't make you sore supposed to be effective? I've started doing bodyweight training a week ago and I haven't gotten half as sore in the second and third workout as i did in the first. should I improve the number of reps and sets?
I'm a skinny ectomorph, 6'0 158lbs btw.
I lift heavy ass weights and I don't get sore.
You only really get sore the first few times or when you do something new.
>falling for the body type meme
>>36788704
why shouldn't I?
Anyone else prefer hack squats over regular squats?
Weak people do.
Is it just the picture or is the angle really that shallow?
I mean at that point you might as well lie on a barbell and roll through the gym.
>>36788539
No because I'm not a fag.
Guys 3 days ago i decided to increase my dumbbell weight and i added 3kg (now 13kg each) i started working out, i could do the exercises but honestly it was hard af and the next day my muscles were hurting so fucking much, i mean they always hurt but they never did this much. did i do something wrong? did i fuck up my muscles?
I was thinking maybe it is too much? since im 52 kg myself
>inb4 faggot
>inb4 skeleton
at least im trying
>>36788357
>did i do something wrong? did i fuck up my muscles?
No.
Rest a couple of days and try again - nothing to worry about unless it does not get better with more practice.
>>36788357
Also, the weight of dumbbells should vary with the exercises - you shouldn't be using the same weight for lateral raises and shoulder press (as an example). Also, adding 3kg when you started with 10kg is a pretty large increase all at once.
See the guy in the back in pic related? According to Elliott in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Zq_nM5H3bk , his horrible posture, which we see everywhere nowadays, is caused by abnormally over-shortened hip flexors. This is caused by sitting all the time, AND.... by doing crunches! According to Elliott, Vince Gironda was avidly against crunches and leg raises, and even kicked people out of his gym for doing them, because they shortened the hip flexors, and this led to bad posture and a less aesthetic physique.
What does /fit/ do to avoid shortened hip flexors?
>>36788294

>>36788294
What? Crunches use the least hip flexors of any ab exercise
>>36788320
Are you implying you know more than Vince Gironda?

I want to hear personal experience.
So I'm up to two weeks NoFap and I want to give up. I've yet to feel any benefits however I just feel much hornier when I get home.
I don't really know why I'm in this since I don't want to be in a relationship or have sex anyway.
I hear NoPorn is actually legit, but I'm not sure since Porn is fun to watch. That could just be the horny me talking though.
Thoughts?
Just watch porn and quit all these silly bollocks.
Get a job and a hobby.
Go ahead and fap. Notice how you feel like shit after? That's what you were escaping.
>>36788018
Lel I did nofap for 32 days earlier this year and I gained absolutely nothing from it except fucking a random chick off yik yak cause I was so fucking horny.
Started fapping again and felt better about life. Nofap's a sham.
Anyone feels with me?
