Why is it that weightlifting, powerlifting, crossfit, bodybuilding etc. is more prevalent among the blue collar/service types, while cardio: 5ks, ironman, triathlons, rowing, etc. are popular among white collar types? (doctors, lawyers, corporate manager types)
This is from my experiences training in hardcore gyms, while spending the rest of my day with the white-collar types, and from general observations of the fitness community.

Body fat scanner things, accurate?
Finished up leg day today, trainer dude waived me over and wanted to set up a session or something. Talked about how they'd go over bodyfat and would have some routine, I didn't care but would humor him. Asked if we could do the body fat thing now since I was curious. it came back with 27.2% (I'm 6'3 270lbs).
I usually just use measuring tape and take the average of a few different online calcs as a ballpark. Wondering if I should buy one of these things...

They aren't in my experience and I'm told they read lower bf% right after workouts. I used one after a workout and got 9% while I am usually 15-18.

Interesting, this was read right after leg day. Usually online calcs average out at 28.5%

Guys, i'm a pathetic neet virgin and i just started going to gym two weeks ago, after reading /fit/ for some time, and immediately the worst fucking thing happened.
So immediately as i walked into a gym this fucking guy came up to me and went all "huh, you're new here?", and he actually helped me to start lifting properly. The next day i come he once again comes over to give advice. Ok. Next week he fucking comes over after i finish training and goes "so how's your muscles, do they hurt? i can give you a massage for better circulation, etc", what the fuck. This fucking guy is hitting on me. So i go "no, no, it's ok i'm fine" and he kinda leaves me alone for two days.
Now, today i come to gym, train, go to take a shower and this fucking guy walks by and slaps my ass. I think i'm about to get raped and immediately leg it.
What do i do, /fit/? I want to keep exercising, i want to get fit and finally get gf, but i don't wanna get raped in the process. And i don't even look like a twink, i'm just you average guy.

I'm not joking here, this is the only gym that's near my house and this fucker now prevents me from coming back and working out.

Brah, try coming over to Switzerland. Commercial gyms with squat rack range from 1000-1500 bucks per year. Currently visiting a crossfit 24 hour gym that doesn't have any machines, just barbells, bumper plates, kettle bells, resistance bands pullup bars, racks and that sort of shit. Costs 800 a year.
No space for a home gym right now but as soon as I'm moving I'll get one. It takes about 2000 bucks, so in just 2 years it's already less expensive than a gym membership here.
Just get a rack, barbell, bench, weights and other small shit and make a home gym.

Is gym cheaper in America? I know we don't have the same lifting/bodybuilding culture, but I was shocked by the prices

There's something I've been curious about for a while: Is it possible to come up with a decent or even an actually good bodybuilding diet plan using only food you can get from McDonald's? I specify bodybuilding because it seems like powerlifters just eat everything and get fat looking (which is fine for their sport I guess, but not the point of this thread).
I would think it would be extremely difficult, but I also know they have other things besides cheeseburgers and coca-cola on their menu. So far the only thing I can really think of is getting a black coffee for mornings/preworkout. I was going to say salads may be a good route to go too, but I don't know what they do to the salads there, since it's McDonald's and they probably have a way to make salad unhealthy.
tl;dr: How much of a challenge would it be to make a proper bulking and cutting diet consisting of only things you can get from McDonald's?

Actually you could probably order a fuckton of milk from Mickey's and use that as the GOMAD for your SS.

People always say breakfast is the most important meal of the day, but they never explain why. Why is it? What does not eating for a long period of time have to do with what you're gonna eat through the day eventually?

What would happen if someone with no gym experience started a test E cycle?
I'm 25yr old, 6'4", and 72kg (158 pound) and planning to jump onto a test E cycle.
Pic related is the only picture i have found of someone jumping straight onto roids. The backstory i have found states that he was anorexic and jumped straight on tren and only did calisthenics and didn't eat enough.
Assuming i stuck to a good routine and a better diet, what would the outcome be like?
I made the mistake by asking Reddit the same question, and as expected i got replies like "Hurr roids are bad" and "Have fun dying when your heart explodes"

How many bananas a day is max? Trying to be lean and fit, no bulking. I eat a banana with oats when i wake up. Then a couple hours later and oats & banana. Half hour later i hit the weights. Midway thru i'm exhausted and have another banana, that's a third one. And afterwards i have at least two more bananas. Every day at least five bananas. Is all that sugar the reason why i am not getting rid of my waist fat? Otherwise i am on a strict healthy diet and completely avoid any junk food.

Sounds like bullshit. Bananas are tremendous for energy boost.

Rest is necessary. But rest days are not absolutely necessary.
Just do a split and give each muscle group 1-2 days rest individually.

Bloating, diarrhea, acne, sleepiness, … Yes GOMAD has side-effects. This isn’t meant to be easy. Focus on the positive: your weight gain. You won’t be doing GOMAD for more than 1-2 months and it gets easier every day.

It's only benefit is putting on serious mass. Like >>42117132 said you only do it for a bit. If you do GOMAD for too long then you just get bitch tits. Its for skeletons who ant to start lifting.
