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 !!!!!
This reads like bait but I legitimately regret starting with SL not SS. For anyone worried about the amount of lower body work read the book and realise that the program recommends adding chins and dips to supplement

Noon here in this very predicament.
Dare I change my program based on seemingly reasonable advice from a random /fit/ post?

Hey guys hahaha I'm really fat haha so I wanna lose weight haha lol. But dieting is haaard lol. So I'm gonna do a water fast :) nobody in history has thought of this before and now it's super popular for some reason. You won't lose weight because some study said you will magically retain mass as produce hgh and clear the toxins hahaha I can't figure out how to diet hahahahaha

what ever you do make sure what you eat tastes delicious - that is the most important thing about losing weight.

Left side is the exercise, right side is the mobility for that exercise, you do mobility after each set
FSAS - Fundamental Straight Arm Strength
FBAS - Fundamental Bent Arm Strength
FLS - Fundamental Leg Strength
the numbers like 5x60s means mastery for the movement, in this case you look at 60s/60rep template and follow that progression, once you hit mastery (can do 5x60s) you move to the next level
for negative movements, 5x5x10s means you descend for 10s each rep
>SL
SL progression seems to be different from PDF's
Foundation gives 3 routines:
>AxBxAxx
>ABxABxx

A: FL, sPL, HBP, RC

Straddle Hollow Body Hold
The guy in Foundation looks a bit relaxed. Weren't you supposed to flex your abs to the max when doing these?
I can flex my abs enough for a Hollow body and then I can contract them further which brings my torso like 5 cm upwards. Gymnast in pdf is pretty low to the ground.
Sup /fit/,
First timer here, old /k/ommando looking for advise.
27, 5'10",250ish.
Have been looking into water fasting and am thinking about giving it a try. am also interested in cataloging it keeping a diary, pictures 'n shit, but wanna ask around first. what do you guys think?
>>41445835
Fuck off read the sticky fatass
>>41445835
I think you should read the fucking sticky before posting, you gun-addled subhuman.
I think mods should set up a filter that bans anyone who tries to submit a new thread with the words water fasting
Hey guys
Since I'm still overweight I wanna lose the remaining kilos.
For the past couple of month I did sports and followed a diet and lost 10Kg so far.
I'm 19, my height is 183cm and when I started I was at 107KG now I'm at 97.
The thing is for the past week I broke my diet and ate a lot of junk. I haven't checked the weight yet but j felt like garbage.
I always had a problem with willpower, in the past couple of month it was really okay and I could follow my diet and workout routine but I don't know how I lost it in the last week.
This is why I want to fast for 14 days (maybe more depending how it goes, my goal would be a month)
Would you recommend it? Partly it's because of the weightloss however I want to prove to myself that I have enough willpower to do it.
I know it can be hard but I really want to to it.
Are there any risks or tips I should be aware of?
Are there more benefits than just weightloss? Is it even effective?
is this all really because of that youtube video? fuck all these meme fast newfaggots. read the sticky and forget this meme
>>41445775
yeah go for it haha
I'm sure you can go 14 days without eating since you have such a nice track record of not breaking your diet and bingeing on junk food
haha have fun with your binge eating disorder and nasty ass skinny fat body even if you're successful
pro tip : if you wanna look good eat at a 500 calorie defecit and lift heavy ass weights
>>41445790
Which video?
Actually my aunt told me about it.
Okay I have to admit she told me a lot of things, for e.g. about weight watchers and stuff, but she lost 15 KG with this water stuff so I got interested.
My plan was to try it and afterwards recontinue my diet and workout plan. Of course I assume I might be slightly weaker afterwards but for me it's easier to regain strength than to lose weight frankly
> At my London Gym. See handsome men with ugly fat girls who have the biggest ego I've ever seen!
Men need to raise their standards. I don't care how long it's been since you've had action, stop validating people like this.
It makes me wonder if I'm beautiful or not.
Or maybe you should lower your impossible standards.
If you only aim for 10/10, don't act surprised when 8s and 9s aim for lower scores, cunt.
>>41445666
miring those forearms on the beast
>>41445666
Lucifer wills it.
But seriously, half the reason fat women are cunts is because they've got friends standing behind them telling them they're beautiful and perfect no matter how much of a bitch they are.
What was /fit/ like before the Reddit invasion?
How before?
Shortly before? It was empty as all fuck. Threads stayed up for 5 days on average
One year before? Eh. Kinda same as it was now, except with less /pol/. I like to think that most people on /fit/ just switched to /pol/ for a few months and back. But of course we still have a new wave of people who have only been working out for 3 months trying to give advice. Same as every year
Golden era of both misc and fit was 2011. I was only a casual lurker back then, but boy was it great.
>>41445713
hey be glad those people do it so you don't have to bother typing up obvious answers to the same three questions every day
>>41445652
dayum who dat
I dropped LSD last night, slept maybe like 3 hours, is it okay for me to go to the gym today
>>41445644
I don't fucking know. Where'd you get the LSD?
>>41445654
cop pls
>>41445644
Yeah but just do cardio. Your coordination will be diminished today, don't want to hurt yourself. Swimming would be ideal cos it's chill for the mind too.
