Just an FYI ON Protien is going for cheap on Prime Day. Just coped a bag myself. It will go fast so dont miss out on these gains bros.
Currently on day 5 out of 8 of a water fast. Have had no libido at all since the first day, probably the easiest way to achieve no fap imaginable. Always moderately hungry, but never ravenously. Went to the gym yesterday, only light strength loss, regain-able within a week.
Anyone else ever do a water fast?
Are you a model getting ready for a shoot?
No?
Then cut the water fasting crap
Eat less, move more, the only 4 words any /fat/ty needs to know to lose weight.
>inb4 you regain all your lost weight by binge eating like a cow the day your fast ends

I usually do a couple days of water fasting every few months on a bulk. I just get so fucking tired of stuffing my face all the time i need to stop eating for a couple days or ill go insane. But younreally shouldnt hit the gym on a water fast. Unless your fat then your body is giving you plenty of energy and you really arent even fasting

I just want you Anons to know that my coach is 5'5" and if it wasn't for him, I wouldn't have become IFBB pro this year. Don't let your height dominate your life.

The senior partner also works out at my gym?!
Wtf should I do /fit/? He wants me to train with him after seeing me not in business formal. Problem is he is a cardiofag but also my boss.
Idk what to pick, gains>career. He is definetly taking more notice of me this whole week and I go out with him to client engagements and dinners way more often now. Could be a sign for partner track.

I know that the whole alpha/beta thing is stupid, but choosing to not advance your career and climb the dominance hierarchy is the most beta thing ever. Find a way to make it work.
Explain to him why lifting is superior. If you can convince him he will respect you more as not only a person but a business man.
>>42102630
Become his friend, get him to lifting, and have him help you up on the career ladder.
So here's the situation boys.
I am a 23yo Male, 5'9", and I am 190lbs
I am will be in the desert for the next month/month and a half and I was wondering about some extreme 30 day diets if there are any? My goal weight is 160 or so, and then starting fresh from there and focusing on slamming out the gym.
What should my meals look like?
For breakfast I have access to a chow hall (usually eggs, poptarts if you grab them/breakfast bars, sausage)
For lunch we get MRE's
For dinner I have access to the same chow hall where a usual main meal dinner is served.
Can anyone give me some sort of 30 day crash diet/excercise plan?
>>42102598
>I am will be in the desert for the next month
with the miltary ?
Bc that seems like the worst time possible for an extreme diet your mates are relying on you to have their back

Injured Bros get In here. I was making so much progress and out of no where I fucking tore my meniscus playing basketball. This shit is so frustrating man every few weeks it's a something with the shoulder, or the knee or elbow. Being injury prone is the worst fucking thing possible.
I snapped my chest up doing dips. Happens every fucking time, why do I keep going back to them

So I have been on Keto for the past month and a half and have been doing great so far. Had my cheat days when I reloaded carbs,had anything and as much as I wanted and still lost almost 10kg(went from 81.5 to 72.3kg at 184cm).
I used to drink beer and juice but since Im on keto I only drink water.
Tomorrow I am going on Holydays with my friends for 5 days and all those days we will have a common fund for food,alcohol etc... so these days are going to be very high carbs and also I wont be able to train.
When I have carbs I get bloated as fuck, have gas and feel kinda bad in general so my question is...Should I start getting out of keto today, increasing my carbs intake a considerate amount so it wont be such a shock tomorrow and the next days when I am with my friends at the beach or is it better to stay one more day on keto/one less day on carbs?
>>42102478
the whole point of keto is cut a very large amount of weight and then slowly return to carbs, I guarantee if you just continuously carboload on that trip then you're going to lose like 75% of your progress because your body has been craving carbs. Plus you know you aren't going to workout with friends around.
>>42102492
still I suppose we will walk around a lot, dance at disco, play at the beach and swim so I guess I could burn some calories to mitigate the disaster?
>>42102386
Yes. Break keto before going all in. Whenever I break it with some sugary alcohol or carb-based food, I end up feeling like Hell for 2 days. Ease out of it today so you don't end up shitting yourself tomorrow.
So my parents have been lying to me about salt all along?

Sodium is only "bad" because its put into shitloads of fast, snack, and ready made commercial foods that you can easily consume unhealthy levels.
If you're cooking with it yourself its pretty hard to use too much because if you do you ruin the fucking food.

Fuck off with your clickbait shit.
The earliest source I found is the "Volksturnbuch" (The People's Gymnastics book) by August Ravenstein, from 1861. Push ups are described on page 346, on a bar apparatus, as an exercise for people who are too weak to do bar dips, or, as he puts it "for very weak persons". Doing them on the ground was described as "uncomfortable", hence the apparatus was used.
https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friedrich_August_Ravenstein
This seems to be the guy.
So, anyway.
Theory 1: Turnvater Jahn (the guy who invented gymnastics and calisthenics as we know them today) originially invented the exercise of "push-ups", about 50 years before it was used in the US (earliest mention: 1905) and almost a hundred years before it was used in the UK (earliest mention: 1940s to 1950s according to an etymological lexicon). That was somewhere in the 1840s to 1850s. Ravenstein took it from him. This seems plausible as Jahn invented a lot of exercises we know today, however, I cannot find push ups in Jahn's books - he mainly uses the bar dip instead.
Theory 2: Ravenstein is actually the sole inventor of the exercise. Which would be kinda cool. Nobody knows the guy (he was a cartographer and did gymnastics as a hobby) but everyone uses his exercise.
Be it as it may, push ups as an exercise are a lot younger than you probably think. We're talking 120-150 years here at most.
Additional information: I have never been able to get a source on the urban legend that the Roman emperor Constantine invented the exercise. It seems to be the usual case of "American education".
Just FYI.
i can dip +30kg for reps but can't do more than 15 pushups without getting sore/tired
Pushups is such an obvious exercise that I think it was "invented" before writing
>>42102341
There isn't a single source on that, though. Nobody, through thousands of years, every described such an exercise, even if they described other exercises.
In fact, what we recognize as exercise would look like bullshit to most people before the 1800s. The only exercises similar to what we understand as exercise were recommended for monks who didn't leave their room and wanted to keep fit. Push ups weren't among them, though.
What's up /fit/, so I'll give it to you straight, for my Height of 5'9”, I weigh way too much, about 210lb. I signed up for a nearby gym to solve this problem.
What would be the best way to get started to shed some of that fat? looking to downsize to 150lb if possible. Pic unrelated.

eat right and lift weights for slow weight loss (~2lbs/week), thats what im doing in hopes to prevent loose skin ~230 --> wherever I end up
You could just do a good amount of cardio to lose faster
Make sure you eat the right stuff, not just less stuff
What are the most annoying things a Newbie has said or done to you? I'll start
>Newbie complains that he wants to get into shape. (He's a skinny btw.)
>I offer to make a workout for him and help him get started.
>He accepts so I create a workout for him and show him how to do everything.
>He hasn't ever done the workout because "It takes too much effort".
A newbie once posted a thread on 4chan describing how he apparently created a workout for another newbie. Turns out the second newbie never did the workout, mentioning that "It takes too much effort".
Annoyed me
Why is the right picture so much more attractive? This is really annoying
