Anyone else doing these?
I imagine it wouldn't be comfortable to set up
>>42443800
i would if i had a trapbar
>>42443815
you just place it on the rack like a rackpull nigger
Who here /homegym/? Gettin tired of gym fees, traveling to the gym after work, stinky indian shitters, and not being able to work out naked. Anybody build one recently? How much did it cost you, what equipment do you have? Etc. Also are rogue racks better than elite fts?
>>42443686
Thinking about doing one when I get my own place.
>Sqaut rack
>Dumbells up to 50kg
>Flat and incline bench
>>42443686
I built one recently after i got my tax return. Cost about 5500 Australian Dollarydoos. Obviously it wouldn't have cost as much if i got regular plates, but i like the wank factor.
I got the 90" Rogue monsterlite rack, i'm above pleased with it. As long as it's sitting flat it hardly rocked when i was trying to move it whilst swinging like a dickhead from the pull up bars.

I recently moved into a 2 bedroom apartment specifically to use the second room for getting in shape. I finished building the gym about a month ago and I've never felt better.
I hate going to the gym. I hate fitness in general. But having this church in my own home means I use it every day if I get the chance. I still lift babyweight, but every week it's a bit more than the week before. That's the whole point, I suspect.
Does this actually work?
yeah, but you should aim for more than one minute
>>42441719
Thanks my dude
Put plate on butt when doing these.
Who here lifts for Christ? I'm doing my squats right now with Orthodox chants in my headphones, and I feel that my efforts are not in vain. Tell me about how you lift for the Lord and post inspirational verses
>>42439371
I try to but am always tempted to lift for other things. The Lord knows I try to take care of his temple and yet I'm always blinded to lift for impure reasons
Isaiah 41:9-13 always gives me strength in times of dark

>being a part of a schismatic sect of smelly Arabs and gypsies
Repent and submit to the Pope
>>42439371
I lift in my home gym. When I finish my routine I mount a dildo to my bench and ride it while I tug off. I do this in Jesus' name. Amen.
most white guys spend hundreds of dollars a month on gym subs, supplements, food, workout clothes and yet this africans get better bodies just by lifting rocks.
what's your excuse?

Niggers are literally the result of selective breeding. Slave owners wanted the strongest so they could do more work and the dumbest so they wouldn't question their master.

BUCKLE UP BITCHES
IT'S TIME TO TAKE A DEEP BREATH, FLAIR OUT YOUR LATS, KEEP YOUR ELBOWS DIRECTLY UNDER YOUR WRISTS AND TIGHTS THOSE GLUTES CAUSE THIS THREAD IS DEDICATED TO THE GREATEST LIFT, The Press™
Rules:
1. All press movements are invited, be it strict press, push press or behind the neck, so long as you are standing while executing the movement
Some discussion questions:
>How much do you weight and how much do you strict press
>What is the best press variation for overall strength
>What is the best press variation for overall aesthetics
>Are you stalling? Where in the lift are you having the most trouble?
>What are some good accessories to address the different areas that may be causing you to stall?
>Why is bench press such an inferior exercise for faggots with bitch tits?
For me, it's The Press™
>>42452349
I will start this off
>>How much do you weight and how much do you strict press
160lbs and just got 110lbs for a set of 5. Still dyel, but I'm getting there
>>What is the best press variation for overall strength
Military press
>>What is the best press variation for overall aesthetics
Arnold press
>>Are you stalling? Where in the lift are you having the most trouble?
Weak core, need to strengthen my serratus
>>What are some good accessories to address the different areas that may be causing you to stall?
Idk, planks probably
>>Why is bench press such an inferior exercise for faggots with bitch tits?
Bench is for nonathletic fat powerlifters who would rather lay down then compete on their feet.
>>42452349
Bullshit there's no way Klokov pressed that clean. Had to be a push-press.
Even Big Z had use a little push on this log.

When will they learn??
I'm doing SS and I'm stalling on OHP wat do?
read the book
>>42451126
1. check your form (watch videos online and compare, post it here or on other weightlifting forums for criticism
2. eat more
3. sleep more
4. start microloading (buy a set of 1.25 lb plates and increase your OHP by 2.5 lbs instead of 5 lbs)
5. add dumbbell lateral raises and bodyweight chin-ups on the days you don't OHP
>>42451170
this
alternatively you could try to do dumbbell ohp for a few weeks then come back to the barbell

The thing about small wrists is, your forearm being small makes your wrist look EVEN smaller. It's like "wow, that WHOLE area near the wrist is tiny, what TINY wrists!" but if you have a well worked forearm, you'll get much thicker quickly up from the wrist, so it just looks aesthetic instead His straight wrist size didn't increase, but the forearm did. This makes the "area of smallness" better, and makes your forearms look decent even with smaller wrists.
tldr if you have smaller wrists, your forearms will be small by default, making your forearms bigger will greatly reduce the "skeleton looking wrists" aesthetic. you can see he still is the same wristsize, but with big forearms it only compliments them instead of destroying them.
>>42450965
Did you really need a tldr for a 2 paragraph comment ... consisting of 2 paragraphs?
>>42450965
read literally none of that Tbh
but if its one of those framecel copes about forearms looking bigger, thats bullshit because chads and oldcels with 9 inch wrists have bigger forearms than literally any gymcel without even knowing what a barbell is
Need more Piana memes and ments. Dumping what I have

Is this caused by weight loss and more muscle mass or what is happening. Im not really complaining, but makes me curious.
Maybe its just because of that girl at work attracting me so hard.

How can one cut when in med school? Just studying for MCAT, I've been eating plenty of sugar to keep my brain working, I forced a summer bulk, which I never do.
I feel if I actually get in, I will end up 15-20 pounds heavier after it, even if I don't lift. At least this way I make sure to have some muscle.
>>42450264
I had the same thing happen when I was cutting at 1200 calories. Went from 422 to 235, then to 275, now cutting and reshaping.
>In medieval Japan, this tradition developed a process for Sokushinbutsu, which a monk completed over about 3,000 days to ten years.[4] It involved a strict diet called mokujikigyo (literally, "eating a tree").[6][5] The diet abstained from any cereals, and relied on pine needles, resins and seeds found in the mountains, which would eliminate all fat in the body.[6][7] Increasing rates of fasting and meditation would lead to starvation. The monks would slowly reduce then stop liquid intake, thus dehydrating the body and shrinking all organs.[6] The monks would die in a state of jhana (meditation) while chanting the nenbutsu (a mantra about Buddha), and their body would become naturally preserved as a mummy with skin and teeth intact without decay and without the need of any artificial preservatives.[6][7] Many Buddhist Sokushinbutsu mummies have been found in northern Japan and estimated to be centuries old, while texts suggest that hundreds of these cases are buried in the stupas and mountains of Japan.[5] These mummies have been revered and venerated by the laypeople of Buddhism.[5]

>which would eliminate all fat in the body.
Redbull me on these "pine needles, resins, and seeds" or are these just ancient DNP?
Why must the Japanse always be so fucking weird.
how did they have wayfarers in medieval japan OP?
checkmate, retard
>>42450213
they don't "eliminate" the fat.
they are pretty much eating nothing so their body uses up what little fat they have.
it's just anorexia but they eat fucking trees for no reason.
