Squats fucked up your back, dead hang during pull ups made it better because gravity pulls your spinre into correct alignment.

I think you go to low during squats? I had this problem where my lumbar would wink in at the bottom. Look up squat wink and see if you can recognize it. Everyone's not made to squat to the grass.
>>
>>41424310
>makes sense
in that case, today may be the day i quit squats :(
my form is good, i even deloaded to baby weight (2pl8) to make sure my form was on point
is there any alternative other than stop doing squats?
My GF is away in another country competing in a show with another bodybuilder who is bigger and more attractive than me.
How fucked am I bros?

Somatypes are bullshit newfriend. They literally equate to

There is no magical genetic shortcoming you have making you fat, it's the lack of exercise and overabundance of calories.
Please click on the sticky and get yourself to the gym. You will thank yourself in a few months for starting now, even if your lifts suck ass, because time and dedication is the only difference between you and whoever you see who has a better body than you.

/fit/... we need to talk.
Enough with the manlet meme. I've had it.
This board is supposed to be about fitness, and making it. How can us shorter guys make it if lankfags are constantly memeing and reminding us of our height?
Let's inject some positivity into this board, my bros. Together, we can all make it. End the manlet meme today.

Thinking of becoming a PT as nothing else interests me as much as lifting/fitness, . I've been looking at different careers and keep coming back to this. I worked in an office for some time after finishing school and it made me depressed being on my ass all day, office culture, etc. All I could think about was when I'd next get to lift.
Only thing is I have bad anxiety (kill me) and am really introverted. I'm also a young, tiny grill who hates social media so how would I even get clients?
Tips from current PTs? What's the pay like and is it worth it? What board should I go through (britbong here).
Any tips welcome, pls halp

Questio about Zinc bros, it says here on the bottle that it is Chelated Zinc (Gluconate) and that it is 50mg, I know that gluconate has smaller elemental zinc so I assume I can take 3-4 of this shit, nothing is said about e-zinc anywhere in the bottle so I took 3, then started puking 20 mins after.
so it IS 50mg elemental zinc and that I took 150mg elemental?

So, recently after reading a few guides, the most useful of which was the stickied one from our very own /fit/, I had the motivation to lose weight and finally an actual, clear-cut explanation of what I need to know.
I immediately started amping up my walking track to a jogging track, soon to make it a running track, and I'm getting weights very soon.
Diet wise, I'm hitting or coming very close to the 1g protein / lb of body weight rule of thumb, as well as hitting <1600 calories a day (700 calories or more lower than what most calculations told me my body needs to sustain it's current weight). Baked chicken breast, hard-boiled eggs and whole-grain bread have been god tier, so far.
Overall, I feel really proud of myself for remaining determined and not cheating once, my gf and family is worried that I'm obsessive but also proud that I'm sticking to it, and I just generally look and feel better.
One problem arises though.
I want to chew threw the fucking walls in hopes of finding something even vaguely high-sugar tasting. I'm stubborn as fuck and haven't let myself slip up, but god fucking damnit I feel an intense, intense need to eat something very sweet. Is this just a relic of my old shitty diet, is there some step that I'm missing that'll satisfy the cravings, or am I just a massive faggot that hasn't learnt to cope yet?
Any advice is much appreciated.

>want to start lifting at home
>get two 33 lbs dumbells
>they are so light I can't even feel them during lateral raises
REEEEEE

So you're strong enough to "not even feel 33's while doing lateral raises" but you don't know how much weight you should get?
Want to know how I know you're actually a fat neckbeard that doesn't actually work out?
>>
>>41422441
Nigger damn, most beginners shit bricks at 15lb lateral raises, you have some real natural strength. Do yourself a favor and hit up a gym, it'd be a waste otherwise
>>
>>41422475
I did calisthenics for years and I am very heavy. I have no feeling at all anymore about how much I should lift for 10 reps.

Why is Madcow called 5x5 when you only do 1x5? Warm up set doesn't count!

Yeah it's really 1x5, 1x3 on Fridays. But the middle sets aren't just warm-up: they're close enough to 5RM to give you more volume. I really love it: enough volume & intensity to make gains, ramped enough to recover between workouts.
>>
>>41422353
What are the basics of Madcow? Im on SL now and is about to change in about 1 month
>>
>>41423168
Similar exercise selection as SL. Ramped up sets. Weekly progression. On friday you up the weight for a set of 3 and then do a backoff set of 8, and on monday you keep doing sets of 5 with the new weight from friday. This is for the squat, bench and rows. Wednesday you do some "light" squats and then progress on the press and deadlift.
I'm not sure about deloading. I think if you get stuck it's recommended to reset the program by introducing your new lifts on the spreadsheet.

my shoulder clicks when I do certain movements, and sometimes it's a bit sore but there has been no real pain. what could be the problem?
havent been to the gym for a week, planning to take the next week off too
>>
>>41421990
there's also this weird little thing that sticks out, near my trapezius and I'm talking about the injured shoulder. what the fuck is that. my other shoulder doesnt have that.
>>
>>41421990
>what could be the problem
Random clicking with shoulder movements is honestly normal - loads of people get it and unless it's causing pain there's nothing to be worried about. With regards to your soreness, what brings it on? Are there specific upper-limb or shoulder exercises that you do?
Otherwise, if you're interested in rehabbing back to regular health, I'd recommend starting with zero-resistance work like open-hand lateral raises done with slow speed, just to acclimatise yourself to the movement, then scale up with weights.
When did you realize that you hate your single mother for failing to raise you to be happy and feel like she deserves to feel your pain?
Also how do I run?

It's not fair that women can't lift as heavy as men even after years of training. Even their squat won't be as good as some random loser doing SS. I want to be able to compete against guys as well

Yeah - but the trade off is that it's so fucking easy for women to have sex if they want too. Hell - you don't even have to be in shape to get a partner. It's harder for dudes to get laid. So... I guess that kind equals things out? idk.
