Who is /fat/ for? Fat members of /fit/ who want
>Lose weight
>Get a more /fit/ body by lifting weights
Here we ask others for advice and give moral support to one another if you are too weak to survive solo. We all know losing weight when you are fat is easy if you just reduce calorie intake, literally piece of cake. At the end of the day this is a support general whose goal is to help and motivate the chubby channers who need to lose weight for a number of reason. Please be warned that there are some chronic idiots who post in this general giving horrible advice to troll or to reassure their extremist autism works for themselves, don't bother, always remember calorie intake, if it is lesser than how many calories your body burns you'll be fine.
And remember, if you are a loser when fat you'll still be a loser if you are thin, your weight isn't the problem.

There are about 11 days left in the semester, I think I'm gonna have to give up on my /fit/ lifestyle for a bit to finish strong. I'll try to keep my diet lower in calories, but I need food to focus on school work guys. I've been eating 1500 calories a day for 32 days now. I think I'm gonna bump it up to 2000-2500 per day to help with mental clarity and focus for just these 11 days.
>how much Is this gonna set me back men?
>I'm really sad but I have to do good in uni

welcome to 2017 /fit/
I want you to invent the stupidest, most insane bullshit piece of broscience a DYEL with minimal expirience might actually believe.
I'll start:
Your biceps and lats are antagonistic to your triceps and chest, the main movers in the bench press. By preexhausting your bi's and lats you can increase the amount of weight you can lift in the bench press.

When benching make sure you go down in the movement less than a second. Then kip it up. Explosiveness will lead to gains.
>>
SS is a good routine
>>
>>41143789
i see a shitload of people benching like that
REMINDER that for strength bench isn't better than OHP, it only got included in powerlifting because it's easier to judge properly

ohp- builds anterior delts marginally better while doing virtually nothing for medial and posterior
bench- builds anterior delts nearly as well as ohp while building your whole chest exponentially better and gives that barrel chested look
the press is a memelift but it feels good so do it anyway

Why bother driving/walking/biking to a gym 4x a week when you can get a great workout in your home for cheap?

I did this because I couldn't afford a barbell or gym membership. I'm weak enough that doing turkish get ups with 24kg kicks my ass. I can squeeze 3 reps per side. Also doing goblet squats, kettlebell swings, shoulder press and curls, supplementing with bodyweight

FUCK you /fit/ and FUCK everything you stand for. starting TOMORROW I'm hopping on a meme brosplit and looking forward to doubling the speed of my gains
if you're following a strength routine stop what you are doing. all these fucking meme strength beginner routines are complete BULLSHIT. don't fall for the size=strength meme. you can be weak as SHIT but still look good if you're training for mass not strength
>gotta build the cake before you decorate it bro
FUCK that and FUCK you. normies at the gym look better than most /fit/ posters here because they only understand the concept of working different muscle groups to failure. that and consistency is literally all you need.
/fit/ is making a simple issue astronomically harder than it needs to be just for the sake of APPEARING like you know what you are doing. I've finally figured it out.
>go to the gym, pick a single muscle group, work it to failure, repeat with a different muscle group the next day
there you go. no need to read the fucking sticky now.
nobody apart from people on this board gives a dusty fuck about how much you actually lift. aesthetics trump all.
and leg day can SUCK MY FUCKING COCK

You fucking dumbass. How have you not been doing a brosplit?
Im going to help you out.
Wtf if you already have a strength base do a 5 set routine progressive overload routine.
Example when i do chest flies
>set 1 40lbs dumbells x 12
>set 2 40lbs dumbells ×12
>set 3 45lbs dumbells ×10
>set 4 45lbs dumbells×10
>set 5 50lbs dumbelss×10
Increase the weight every 2 sets and go for 12 each time. 10 for the 5th set (heaviest)
Do this with every body part
Squats
>135 for 12
>185 for 12
>225 for 12
>225 for 12
>285 for 10
And if i dont get a (you) from OP he can go fuck himself and never make any gains

What is Thicc Mode?
>Thicc mode is traditional male aesthetics. Thicc mode for /fit/ has been described as a body built from barbell strength training with accessories (texas method, madcow, 5/3/1), 13% to 17% bodyfat that has crossover to strength or contact sports ability. Twinks, ottermode, & contest ready bodybuilders are not thicc mode.

You won't. Just bench for the next two months and eat nothing but your favorite junk food. You will never see it again. Plus getting big and fat before you go in seems like it'll help.

Yeah I don't care about bodyfat (or going bald or whatever from roids) I just need to get big as fuck

I'm an engineer at Google (not Indian).
I've gained 10kg of fat since I started working there.

I'm a lab technician for big pharma.
Not physically strenuous at all, but I'll probably get cancer soon and then the weight will just roll off.

Give me one good reason why you're not working 6 days off the week (while in a cut/maintenance/recomb)? Is it just laziness?
p.s.
Hell even my resting day means one hour of walking.
