/fit/, my buddy make a DIY power rack. How much do you think he can reasonably lift before the rack totally snaps and he an heros?
I'm thinking lmao2pl8
>>42190647
It's could last 1.5 pl8 before the breaking
Unless he straight drops the bar on the wood
>>42190647
needs more duct tape, wrap the whole thing in it and should be good enough even if you use atlas stones instead of plates
If made properly it can handle a surprising amount

>the you bulk a little too hard and go full bear-mode
Seriously, its so easy all you have to do for this asthetic is bulk up about 50lbs and women fucking adore this build to super cut cardio-fags or muscle-dummy lifters.
>>42190142
>>42190142
women generally want this build when they prefer thick anon
>>42190142
If only i didnt grow bitch tits whenever i bulk..

Got my year gym pass today, so I'm going to start doing this shit tomorrow. I've already been fixing my shit diet, so I guess this is the last(?) Step.
I just want to know what machines or dumbbell shit I should do just to acquaint myself with everything. (Im 6'4", BMI 30.4. I have, like, negative upper body strength, but my legs are at least decent, and my potbelly is what I really hate, if that helps any)
Tl;dr what should I do at my first trip to the gym
>>42190092
push, then pull, followed by legs, then you can take a day off or repeat that and take a day off.
>remember to take your water bottle
>decide your program beforehand
>look up tutorials on youtube how to perform your lifts
>re-rack weights, don't be a faggot
>feed the gym falcon
>>42190131
Beyond that, what's the proper attire?
I've been lifting on and off for about the last four years and always run into the same problem:
I lift for about 6-8 weeks, doing my normal 3, 4x10ish routine, start to see results and then plateau. Then, after I plateau, I try to push through it and end up hurting myself somehow.
I've never been given a solid answer or been able to figure out what I'm supposed to do next. Do I then drop to reps of 5x5 or some variation of that, performing the same kind of lifts, or do I do completely different types of lifts in the same amount? (And what do I do after six weeks of that?)
It's really frustrating always getting to this point, and always straining something. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

So this pretty much says that either or is correct. You can switch the repetitions, and get away from hypertrophy, or switch the exercises completely.
If that's the case, then I should just focus on doing exercises that challenge those same muscle groups, but ones that I basically haven't done before?
Let's have a thread for anything related to staying fit while slaving away for that paycheck.
My questions specifically: I used to have a ton of free time in uni, but now that I've started working, keeping my routine efficient is tricky. What are some good snacks I can bring to the office that preferably have some good protein and calories (I haven't been able to meet my daily recs with less time).
Also, I only have time to work out *after* I get off, but if I take a preworkout, my sleep is fucked up. Anyone else know this? Should I just go no pre, or drink a half cup of coffee or something?
You have homegym?

>What are some good snacks I can bring to the office that preferably have some good protein and calories (I haven't been able to meet my daily recs with less time).
before u go to bed
boil 5-10 eggs
wake up take out the yolk.
have 5-10 eggs for snake

neither
just workout. or do some high jumps before you lift.
after noon. you shouldn't take any caffeine afterwards.
Need sauce ideas to go with chicken and rice. Preferably very low fat, low salt, low sugar. Had a google and can't find shit.
Post your secret recipes /fit/
Mustard
put some saracha on it after you neck yourself.
Greek yogurt works reasonably well as a creme / sour cream substitute for any success calling for those. I personally like reheating my chicken with a few spoonfuls of salsa and greek yogurt and putting the heated mixture over potatoes.
What's up with the vegan shilling now?
I came back to browse the board a bit since last week, I usually come a go from /fit/ every couple of years, and this never happened before.
Every single day there are multiple vegan shill threads, it wasn't even like this with "u mirin? tinycock.jpg", "first sip of the day", "tfw no korean g/f", etc. I don't even think it's some autistic fuck doing it, I am starting to believe there are actually people being paid to post this stuff.
In /pol/ it has been proven beyond any doubts that there were groups posting in there that were paid per post to shit up the board. I am thinking that maybe something similar could be going on here.

So /fit/. How has lifting and getting /fit/ improved your sex life?

Bullet Points:
>Girls want to have sex with me.
>Feel confident on the daily.
>Miring my own muscles during sex.
>Strong enough to hold girls legs picking her ass up from the bed while I rail her.
