/fit/, what's your opinion of High School Wrestling, and do you know any good places to find videos/tutorials to help improve my skills.
>>42136641
Never did it because it looked really gay but seems like most people who did it were in shape
Look at Cary Kolat videos fag
>>42136641
Study videos of Olympians wrestling. Learn from the best.

what's the point of lifting if you can build an exoskeleton?
>>42136374
What the point of going through life if you can just kill yourself now?
>>42136387
That's a good question.
>>42136374
I don't get it, how does an exoskeleton increase strength by that much???
I've been lifting for 2 months + cardio + good diet and I've made noticeable difference in my body. I look and feel a lot better.
My question is, will I eventually get a hug from a girl if I continue on my lifting path? 28 yr old virgin who has never held hands with a girl nor hugged one outside my family, just curious if I'm going to make it.
Not ugly, I just never hang out where women are at.
You problem isn't they way you look your problem is most likly with you social skills and confidence keep lifting and improving your self but remember like all things social interactions must be practiced to get good at them so go out and just try to meet new people
>>42136317
Yes
>>42136317
fucking kill yourself
Can someone give me an ab workout that I can do three times a week to add on to a PPL routine. Im just doing planks right now but they seem pretty meme tier and im looking for a whole routine to hit abs harder.

Hey /fit/ my girl just broke it off with me and I'm torn apart, how do you guys deal with break ups? I tried my hardest to save our relationship but what can you do, I'm not going to hit her up or get on social media I'm extremely devastated and I cant manage to think straight at the moment shit sucks guys I honestly thought I was going to marry the girl but that's life right. I'm going to try and be as stoic as I can but lets see how long that lasts I cant even fucking cry like what the fuck /fit/ only a bit of tears come out but its like my body and mind is telling me nahh nigga fuck that shit , goddamit /fit/ I just want to cry a little and let it all out but I cant even manage to do that,
Pathetic as fuck
>>42136075
Get really, really drunk. Pass the fuck out. Eat like garbage for a day while drinking more and watching all the shitty movies that remind you of her. Then every time you think about her after your pity party, go to the gym and work out until you're about to collapse.
Transform every bit of sadness into anger. Being sad is useless, get mad at her ( in your own head ofc, dont be a fucking idiot and go full beta on her) and use this feeling to fuel your gains, and I'm not memeing or anything, anger is a hell of a drug.
>>42136075
It will take some time but you'll recover. She isn't worth your time or energy. No matter who you marry or settle down with there will always be a better match for you out in the world. There are too many females on this planet to get hung up on one who didn't even want to be with you. You're too good for her and if she doesn't want you in her life that is her problem, not yours. Focus on yourself and improve in every area you can. When she sees you doing this and notices what she lost she will regret it. Never take her back though, you're better than that.
Does veganism increase/decrease testosterone/estrogen? Seeing many conflicting articles about this...

Animal saturated fat reduces testosterone and vegans have just as much free test as normal

That guy who spammed the What The Health movie the other night here, (If he sees this) I wanted to thank you. Would not have watched it otherwise.
>>42135916
i feel like i have all this shit, am I WebMDing myself?
what is the starting strength for reducing estrogen?
>Parents set an ultimatum that since im 21 years old now I either have to get a job and contribute to the household to the tune of $500/month or move out
>I live in Canada and find this amount to be outrageous regardless of current market prices for similar sized accommodations
What can I do? I don't wish to pay neither do I wish to move out.

Ever stop to think what you could have been?
> if you had started training earlier
> if you actually ate properly
> if you actually slept properly
> if you weren't meme'd by SS
> if you never drank alcohol
> if you started nofap on the day you were born
[spoiler]> if you had sex with your gym bro[/spoiler]
> if you you weren't a complete fuckup
> if you started that cycle
> if you dedicated your life to looking like Zyzz
Brahs It's already too late for me. I'm 22 and ready to LDAR. Just learn from my mistakes and sacrifice everything you have to reach your potential. That's all I can ask for in this lifetime. You're all gonna make it brahs.
>Ever stop to think what you could have been?
in your mom
nah i worked out for like 2 months and then hopped on gear
>if you could spoiler properly
I've been working out for 4 months now and don't feel like I've made any significant gains. If anything I feel flabbier. I was making tremendous gains in the first month, but I've completely plateaued. This just feels like a was of time...
I'm strongly considering doing steroids. But I don't know.

Change up your routine.
Ok, sorry to bother you guys again. I'm that fat, quit smoking faggot who bought a treadmill.
It's been one week, I can now run a comfortable .5 kilometres, and I can do 2 chinups finally, so things are going good. I eat mostly meat and cut almost all sugar from my diet except for coffee.
I just bought a bench press, and I want to combine my workout routine with it. My routine currently is, job/run for 15 mins, attempt to do chin-ups, for a couple hours, then do the same before bed.
If I add in the bench press, what is the best way to do this, and should I do it on an incline? What I mean is, should I start with just the bar and do it till I get tired, or should I do like 3 heavy lifts?
Again sorry to bother you, I'll post again in a week for a check up. Please tell me if I'm doing anything wrong.
>>42135712
I meant to say, jog and rest for a couple hours, sorry.
>>42135712
Dude, anything is better than nothing. If you have weights do some 5x5 routine like Starting Strength or Strong Lifts. If you just have a bar then do lots of reps. You got this boo.
>>42135728
Thank you senpai.
HEY GYMCELS
I'LL LET YOU IN ON A SECRET
LIFTING WON'T TURN YOU INTO A 10/10 SLAYER
women, because of the ubiquity of tinder, will always have a more masculine man in a matter of minutes
no amount of lifting either natty or roids will turn you into the next zyzz
you're life was predetermined by your genes
I respect you for lifting, but you won't get women
IT'S ALL ABOUT FACE
ALPHA FUCKS, BETA BUCKS
if you aren't 7/10 6ft+, you should just lay down and rot, LDAR for short
pic related, anyone on bb.com or here trying to ascend to fuck bitches by lifting
>>42135630
makes me feel good, though
going up stairs has become significantly less horrible
Is bottom right a shoop?
>>42135630
what does even mean "blackpill"? are you a cuck bro?
It's not all about the face. A nice face gives you pre-selection points. But irl what really matters is attitude.
Is olive oil or coconut oil better for cooking with?
>>42135453
Olive oil. Coconut products tend to have very high levels of saturated fats.
>>42135453
Coconut oil. Saturated fats are a meme and coconut oil has is more stable in heat.
>>42135462
Which are healthy according to modern studies

>>42135340
