I think I'm a low test faggot guys. Just like my faggot dad is.
I can't grow beard at 22! Fucking 22 dudes!
What's happening? Is it because I'm skinny with a BMI of 17? Is it because I don't get enough sunlight?
Help needed.
>>41506050
Can't grow a beard? Might as well turn into a trap
>>41506050
If you aren't growing a beard in your teenage years, you will not be able to do it ever. It has nothing to do with sunlight or low test, it's just your genes.
>>41506050
Lmao I'm 19 and have to shave at least once a week otherwise I'll look like my dad. Man I sure am glad that I'm a real man with good genes.
Fit me i want to be chad.
just kick that chair you're standing on and you'll become a chad
Please be in Moscow...
>>41506041
ill be your chad qtie
I've had this shit on and off since I was 15. Can't squat anymore, how the fuck do i heal this shit lads?
>>41506018
Same here, I am 23 now. It will never go away.
>>41506040
Are you serious mang? Holy mother of shit this can't be true.
>>41506060
Yeah man. It started around the same time when I was 15 and played a lot football (soccer for Ameriniggers). Had to stop playing these sports.
Now I still have it, I get a lot of pain when doing pistol squats for example and I can't sit on my knees. Squats that don't go very low are fine.
If it really bothers you, you have to get surgery.
>Hey buddy I think you got the wrong door, the leatherclub's 2 blocks down
How do you handle this confrontation, /fit/?
y-you too
>>41505888
Sneer "Fuck you"
>>41505888
Start strangling his dick which somehow remains flaccid
Why the fuck does everyone gotta tell me different things about which squat form is "proper"? Rippetoe says nipples should point to the floor, Thrall says basically the same thing (but only sometimes?) and Cali-Move says the opposite, to keep your spine vertical and head up.
I'm a newbie and I just feel like whatever I do, it's WRONG. Do I need a fucking degree to be able to motivate my squat form?
>>41505687
Nah, just squat. Don't overthink it too much, you're not going to injure yourself unless you're actively resisting the biomechanics of your body.
I squat narrow, high bar, and I've never been injured even up to 200kg. Trust me, you're overthinking it. It's not a fucking deadlift.
yeah I don't know why this is such a contentious issue
i go high bar, brace core, and just squat with a straight bar path.
rippletoe is extremely dogmatic in his ideas. his idea of squats is probably right for his femur/torso length, just like his "200lb for an adult male" shit is right for his build and "gallon of milk a day" is right for his goals, but he's convinced his way is the ONLY way. squat what feels comfortable for you, lets you move the most weight, and keeps your spine straight and knees from buckling.
>>41505687
it depends on what kind of squat youre doing
idk what you mean by keeping your head up but if it means what i think it means you shouldnt do it no matter which squat youre doing
Sup /fit/
True oldfag here. Been on and off this board since 2007.
How's /fit/ now? Just sold my company and took acid the first time to celebrate. Shit is cash but I'm peaking rn and suddenly got very curious about this board has changed. It's what originally encouraged me to get in good shape (was a spooky skeleton before).
Also dubs decide whether I buy an f-type or Maserati GT.
Dude, don't waste your first acid trip on /fit/.
Go out and enjoy your success.
Peace
>>41505671
I'm coming down rn - spent most of it with friends and walking around Austin's greenbelt. It was a good time. Definitely felt like it was the right place to do it (I live in Houston and we all came up to Austin for the weekend - even though I love it, HTX doesn't have spaces that work for tripping like Austin does).
Thank you for the congratulations though.
>>41505654
its all reddit now

not only are you never gonna make it, enjoy your hemorrhoids when you get older

Alternatively rock backward and forward gently.
>>41505678
Also think about trucks and stuff
>>41505721
Don't forget to take off your shirt and turn your hat backwards.
How do I achieve this natty?
>>41505538
By working out for some time
>>41505538
lift bout 3/4 times a week
>>41505538
Drink rum 24/7
Steal, rape and pillage
Hey /fit/, are there any methods of measuring body fat accurately without doing some Nazi Space Magic?
http://www.calculator.net/body-fat-calculator.html
Is this accurate enough?
Alternatively, maybe someone can post that infographic with different body fat %?
Tbh it doesn't matter. You're fat as shit and that's all you need to know. So, work out, and go on a cut
>>41505501
Eh. Fat as shit is a bit harsh.
I do have muscles and feelings.
They aren't fucking great, but they are still there.
>>41505529
You really think I care about your feelings? And what muscles lol?
Look bud, I'm gonna tell you what everyone is thinking when they see you: you look like a lazy sack of shit.
So, work out and put the fork down and count/track your calories.
Reminder for novices:
Remember NOT to do Stronglifts 5x5 if you're looking for a novice program.
SS is a much better alternative.
SL5x5 will waste all your newbie gains and by the time you will move on to a proper program it will be already too late, and you'll be handicapped compared to the folks who started with proper programming!!!!!!
- If you follow SL, you will have to start with an empty barbell on all exercises and add only 2.5kg at each session. this means that if you are stronger novice, you are wasting invaluable time (months) and SL is simply stunting your gains for nothing, when on SS or something else you could be already be lifting whole plates!
- Even if you don't follow the program and don't start with the simple empty barbell at the beginning, the 5x5 setup is too much useless volume for a novice, who usually only needs a minimum stimulus to grow anyway.
5x5 instead will fatigue the body unnecessarily and tamper recovery, while not giving any advantage compared to a 3x5 setup.
A 3-set setup will provide growth and sufficient stimulus without killing your recovery and will make you progress faster for longer!
If you're a novice starting now, do yourself a favor and don't fall for the SL fraud / meme !!!!!
Same shit
>>41505465
I've seen this copypasta before.
So I've come to the conclusion that you can't be trusted, you are clearly a SS shill. Why should I listen to you?
I'm starting to think SS is a meme.
they're both garbage programs
Right now I'm doing Smolov to improve my squat. My max 1RM squat is at 75-80kg, depending on my mood of the day.
Thing is, I'm really skinny. I weigh 55 kilograms, and am 180cm tall.
I have a hard time eating food guys. I wasn't fed enough while younger (weighed 44kg in highschool, which led me to a really shitty quality of life, as you can imagine).
Do you have any idea how I could get some easy kcal to pack on weight really fucking fast?
>>41505413
Fucking eat man it's not that hard. 3 big meals a day and use my fitness pal to see if it's enough
and also
>peanut butter
>>41505413
why the fuck are you using Smolov when you are squating 75kg... with your stats, especially with that weight and height you should still be on SS...
Smolov is an advanced program, just do a simple linear progression and drink protein shakes with milk all day. Find foods you like and eat a bunch of them too, macros don't matter just get calories. Your stomach is small now and needs to be stretched, you will probably have to throw up a few times while adjusting
For me it was an experience in the teen hangout place in my city, the bouncer/security guy there broke up a fight and carried 2 highschool aged kids out by their necks to the parking lot. Made me want to be that guy.
How about you? pls no for the girls posts
To look like this guy. Not even memeing.

I miss not caring, I miss genuinely enjoying vidya and eating junk food without realizing I'm wasting my life/screwing up my body. Ignorance really was bliss. Now everything I want to do is drive off far away into the woods blasting the burnout 3 soundtrack, build a cabin and play xbox and lift for the rest of my life. It's a specific feel

Get your tab, if you make it past darby you're golden
Just wanna say thanks. I have suddenly (literally a chnag ring the past week) started getting tons of mites now that I'm out of cocoon mode. All my male co-workers have started asking me for diet/fitness advice, and I've gotten several female co-workers commenting on how I am noticably more muscular than whichever guy I happen to be working with. This 18 year old girl at one of my jobs clearly checks me out regularly and she continually goes out of her way to remind me that she's single. At my college girls have started to chat with me out of the blue (asking stupid questions that they almost definitely know the answer to for example). Basically, folks legitimately like me more now that I'm in better than normie shape. Still dyel and nowhere near where I wanna be, but I'm glad this is paying off.
To keep it fit related, I am having a hard time hitting lats. Like, I can hit them but only if I don't do anything else first that day and I have to spend a ridiculously long time on them and by that time I've exhausted the energy required to hit my other muscle group that day, so I need some advice as to how I ought to hit them more efficiently.
cool blog post
