I'll answer what I can, but here are my questions
1. I'm eating a 1000kcal under TDEE, 180g protein a day. I've lost 12 pounds in a month and maintained slow progressive overload on my lifts. Just used skin calipers to measure bodyfat and I went from 23% to 22%. How the FUCK is that possible. I thought I'd be like 18% by now. Am I breaking thermodynamics?! im 6'0 and 174lb
2. I've been doing ICF 5x5 by Blaha and people talk a lot of shit about it. Should I switch to lvysaur 4 4 8? I'm only lifting 1/2/3.
3. I wore lifts in my boots at the club on Saturday. Girls were WAY more into me. I only added an inch as well. And its not placebo. You guys should try it. None of my friends noticed. Im going to do 2 inches next time.

Im going to start learning muay thai for recreational fun and self defence. After i learn that for about 6 months im going to learn wing chun (better used on people who dont know how to fight, you wont hurt them )
What are so exercises and stretches i should learn? Also post what you are learning and what others can expect
>>42090912
6 months of a martial art will only make you amateur at it. If you want to get good choose a martial art and make your main focus. It takes years in a martial art before you can get exceptionally good.
I wouldnt do muay thai for 6 months then go onto another, especially wing chun. Thats taking 2 step back
>>42090956
There's nothing wrong with taking wing chun. It is a viable martial art, but OP couldn't have picked more different martial arts.

Check your testosterone levels.
How do I expand my rib cage?
I hear that the ribs ossify when you reach about 20 years old, although expansion is still possible after that age.
I'm 18 years old so I think I would be able to add a few more inches.
What kind exercises can I do? Should I breathe deeper? Should I sleep on my back and let 8 hours of gravity do its thing? Any suggestions are welcome.
>>42090438
Squat
>>42090518
How does that work?
>>42090438
Pullovers, and loaded carries (especially anteriorly loaded like sandbag or keg carries) will work the serratus and intercostal muscles; hypertrophy there will help with your goal.
Yoke walks will expand your torso like no one's business but you can't go heavy on them as much as with a sandbag carry or high rep pullovers due to CNS reasons.
Is it true that he got this outlandishly jacked in just 7 years of serious lifting??
What is the point of this thread? Is this seriously how you entertain yourself?
>>42090482
Well the pic I posted is my goal body, so I thought asking a question about how he got so yoked would help me achieve my goal
>>42090426
You're lucky your same shit thread always makes me smirk OP.
There are some jacked cows.
And their diet?
Just fucking grass. Literal grows out of the ground. Cows don't even need to pay for it. They just fucking chew what's on the floor and sleep all day.
Meanwhile we have to go to supermarkets, inject ourselves with steroids, go to the gym, come up with complex plans, and we STILL can't get as ripped as them.
It isn't fucking fair.
>>42090370
Cows pay for it with their lives. Their tasty medium rare lives
Imagine if we lived like cows, we'd be fucking auschwitz tier. Cows would be like "do you even lift" and you're pissed the fuck off because cows don't lift. But you have to. Biology is the most racist thing ever. Cows are racist. All chickens do is peck at corn and do cardio all day, they don't even lift. When was the last time you saw a chicken at the gym?
>>42090370
The protein called myostatin reduces muscle growth and increases fat,it is the reason why old people have less muscle,the myostatin doesn't go away,it just builds up and fucks up your muscles.Belgian bulls have almost no myostatin so their muscle growth isn't restricted and fat content is minimal.
The goal souldn't be increased testosterone,but decreased myostatin.
Pros and cons of SS vs 5 x 5?
>>42089910
cleans are hard for beginners
>>42089910
A mix is the better option.
Do 5x5, but the first 2 reps are preparation.
1x5 at 50%, 1x5 at 80% and then 3x5 at 100%.
>>42090099
>but the first 2 sets

He had no muscle to begin with. Fasting is retarded but especially if you have muscle mass to lose.
>>42089907
Nope, he starved himself for a month
He started the whole water fasting meme a few weeks bavk
Why did you start lifting? Me - Gym class came and it was lifting time. Never lifted a day in my life. Weak frail kid. Couldn't even bench the bar. Then the bigger and stronger kids were loading weight on. Felt like a weak puny pussy. Why'd you start?
was skinny fat and was a fucking loser. Senior year came by and i started making friends and some of which were lifting, so i joined them
>>42089543
started with the bar
now bench 2pl8 for reps
you can do it!
I was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes 3 months ago. I was put on 3 medications, and my goal was to get off them as quickly as healthily possible.
Today I'm about 30 pounds lighter and on one medication.
Honestly, the only reason I'm lifting is so that my body isn't completely fucked once I get down to a healthy weight. Hopefully I'll learn to love lifting, though.
What's /fit/'s stance on video games?
Okay in moderation, or a total waste of time/energy/money?
Nothing has a meaning so everything we do is a waste of time
I have a switch that I play on a plane. Other than that I don't play games.
They were fun and time having fun isnt truly wasted but nowadays I can't stop thinking how unproductive they are as I play. Wish they honed some skill beyond hand coordination

Tried nofap for years, now on day 6 and motivated like never before
I'm angry and can't fall asleep
