Good job losing the weight man you just need to build muscle. I'm like the exact opposite I'm trying to gain weight and gain muscle. We're all gonna make it senpai

I want ABS, what routine should i follow?

Hey guys.

I'm following a basic PXPXLXX split, running on 3 of the X days.
I want to run a half marathon in 13 weeks. How much should I change my routine in order to accommodate for the extra work? (in term of intensity, but also exercises on leg days).
I mean I know I need to change in, and prolly to reduce lifting a bit, but I just don't know by how much.

Thanks

lose weight, if you dont have abs then, do abs exercises

Learn how to cook chicken if you are going to do meal prep.

Eat it with steamed vegetables and/or brown rice.

>>42252647
what is so bad about white rice? i just love my basmati...

>>42252647

>brown rice

enjoy your 0 nutrition and phytic acid overload.

There's a reason no one eats that garbage ouside of hipsters and out of shape middle aged women.

Probably a tension headache which means you haven't been breathing properly while lifting.
I got them in my first year of lifting and even light weight would make my head feel like it was going to explode. Doing try and push through it because it will only get worse so take some time off until it gets better for me that was three months.

>>42252521
Yes you will eventually get injured lifting heavy
However it is wrong to call it not sustainable unless you are lifting as heavy as lilliebridge

>>42252521
Again this thread...
1. Define heavy
2. Guys on the right lift far heavier weights (while focusing on time under tension) than you probably ever will.

how many times are you gonna make this thread?

Static stretching beforehand is a meme, you wanna do dynamic stretching as part of warm up to help warm up the joints and activate muscle fibres. It's good practice to minimise injuries.

You can do static stretches after workout or before bed that night which can help with recovery but it's not a necessity.

A meme means it's bad?

I do 5min of stretching before every workout. All kinds of stretches included, but nothing I hold longer than three breaths

Stretching is not a meme, I repeat, stretching is not a meme

I got sent to physical therapy because the appearance of knee pain was making it difficult to climb the 100 ft of stairs I need to go up and down on a daily basis to do my job. The doctors pretty much flat out told me that my muscles were about as flexible as bricks, and asked if I was stretching. Then yelled at me for not stretching.

Joint mobility exercises in the morning, dynamic stretches before workout, warmup into each actual exercise, cool down stretches after. Been doing this for a while now and no more knee pain.

Interval training a best for this kind of thing. Short bursts for a brief time. Look into it, C25K should help, try to push your speed.

Where are you from, anon? I want to get in as well, but in my country we have to run a sub-24' 5k (preferably sub-22')

Thanks, will try it on my run later

> Where are you from, anon?

Belgium. It's the easiest of all their tests, since I'm trying to get in as a weapons specialist, tinkering and maintaining small arms and heavier support guns.

Regular infantry also need to run a 5k, and para-commando's have to do it uphill.

2km in 10 min is doable. My "fitness officer" in the army did research and testing on the best way to train for our running test (3k) for her masters degree and came to the conclusion that the best way to train for it was to just do the run. Basically just time yourself, go all out and try to beat your last record. Of course this fucking sucks if you do it every day so she also suggested doing weighted squats and calf raises. General cardio helps as well.

At the end of my stint in the army we were gonna do another test to like see how much we improved over the course and I basically did the actual run 3 times a week, going all out, and the other days I did squats and other leg exercises. Worked pretty well.
Ended up doing the 3k at 11:13, puked after crossing the finish line tho :/

I read a couple of pages on my android (currently reading Harry Potter) and fall asleep quickly. Another method I use is to masturbate

I read physical books before bed and have an active sex life. Im starting to think i might need serious meds

You overthink?

>>42252282
>he didn't neck train

>>42252282

>You have to do compounds to make gains as a natty

>>42252201
I know nothing about this but joe rogan has said he eats bone broth every morning so I imagine both bone broth or eating the marrow are good options. I'd be interested to know the nutritional information for it
