What is your daily routine for keeping your skin in decent condition?
I only wash my face with water in the morning and when I shower, but I'm noticing my nose has visible pores full of shit.
I'm a recovering fatty (lost 20kg) I don't have loose skin because I lost weight slowly and pounded foods with vitamin E, and put coconut oil and shit on my skin. I do have some scars from my skin stretching when I got fat in the first place, anyone have pro-tips to make them fade or heal? They are pretty old, they don't even look that bad. But I want to be the best post fat version of me that I can be.

Stop eating carbs, genocide dust mites on your bed and pillow. Anything topical I apply to my skin dries it out which looks disgusting.
>daily routine
if you need something else besides washing your face with warm water, then it's over
So /fit/ I was asked to join a band as a bass player. If I do accept, I'll have to spend alot hours practicing bass, recording etc. I'm wondering, will that fuck up my gains / recovery time? Will playing alot of bass kill my gains?
>>42666692
Nah bruh.
Get those gains.
Show up to the studio with a sick pump.
>>42666692
Well the bass will halp you finger gains and maybe wrist and forearm. Soooo theres that. Come into the studio lookin like Popeye and shit
>>42666692
>bass
>alot of hours practicing

I lifted for a year, my body was great, then I moved to another city, stopped lifting, lost my gf and now I'm moving back to my town and I'll start from 0 again.
So, for aesthetics, it's better now to do a 5 days or a 3 days a week routine?
I'm kinda confused about how I should go back to it all again.
just do what you did last time

Read the sticky.
Neighbors moved and gave me a few bags of soy protein powder. Is this useable or is it garbage?

>90 calories
>12g of protein
You can get 75% of that amount of protein through a glass of non-fat milk. Get some real protein powder.
>>42666638
I'm not memeing you here, that shit is nutritionally void at best. Worse, it could be feminising. It is known that soy is dangerous for baby boys as it affects their hormonal development. Not known how badly it affects adults.
You can have it a few times a week but will need other sources of protein as it is incomplete, gyno from soy is highly unlikely
Anyone here not have a single social media account.
Would it be worth picking one up for dem social gains?
>>42666626
I started using facebook again because I got a bunch of normie friends from my new job. They're a good time and it's been nice being with different types of people. Facebook is cancer as fuck but they all insist on using it for group chat and shit so I kind of have to.
I don't think social media is good for finding NEW friends tho, do that shit irl.
I use twitter just because I like to follow people of all kinds of different political views and watch the drama between them.
>>42666715
Were they weirded out by the fact you had 0 fb friends?
>>42666626
I don't use any social media, and I never will. I have my reasons.

That's Ricky Piano, he's a famous fitness YouTuber known for his activism against steroids.
I have crippling perfectionism so I'll get stuck in cycles of doing nothing. Even though I know that not doing nothing is killing me psychologically because I have high aims, I'm so afraid of failure that I won't spring into action and be in "planning" phase forever.
In a sense, if my plans have not left my mind and become actions at least partially I cannot fail because I have 0 accountability. So I thought that making a pledge here as a sort of ritual might help break this psychological cycle. At least you calling me an autist will be input from the exterior in response to my actions.
Cmon, I cannot be the only one this autistic.
>It's 11-12 pm here so I pledge that before I go to sleep I'll have made a schedule for tomorrow and will follow it
>I'll keep counting my calories and macros and not skipping the gym
>I'll start nofap (been interested in trying for a while) aiming for 90 days
>I'll start the first book in my philosophy reading list (Brave New World, out of Jordan Peterson's recommended books list)
>I'll start the habit of meditating before going to sleep, heck, I'll do that today
>I will limit my daily time in /fit/ to 1 hour.
>If I break this pledge, I'll come back to /fit/ and post a copy of it and admit that I broke it.
Cool

How can you tell if you have high or low lat genetics>
Eat 7000 cals a day and see what happens.

how long should a bulk last? what would be a good target weight gain?
My maintanance is 2000 and I'm bulking at 2500 (I don't wanna fucc up my growth spurt and be a manlet). When I started bulking a month ago I was around 124, now I'm 132, even though I realistically should be 128. What gives? Is it water weight?
Also my dear abs are going away. Pls help. I'm not dirty bulking
Don't do such a big surplus. 250 is more than enough. Any more and you'll just have to do a long cut at the end.
Aim to gain a half pound a week, if that seems like nothing, remember that it's still 24lbs a year.
I'm assuming you're a newbie so bulk like that for at least 1 year, or 2 years if you do occasional mini cuts. Only do a mini cut once you're about 15% and do a 750-1000 cal deficit for 4 weeks. Don't do those deficits for any longer than 4 weeks.
This is what anyone that's been lifting for multiple years, that's trying to actually help you would recommend. Don't listen to the 500-1000 cal surplus people, I guarantee you they look like shit.
>>42666382
ok thx
>>42666382
but I look on the NIH website and it says ppl like me """should""" be eating 2500 calories a day.
Are (((they))) tricking us?
I was making nogains on 2000, I was a skinny faggot with abs. This was me then
