but he gets this part wrong

stretching obviously does not make you stiff and the reason why stretching decreases performance is because an increase in flexibility means a decrease in strength. like a spring that gets stretched loses power the body too loses power when stretched. this is the reason why the body auto down regulates flexibility because any unneeded flexibility is detrimental to your performance

>>154389032
high test people are less beta and sissified. so maybe that means they will rage more openly but that just means they actually express their emotions instead of hiding them, holding grudges, being passive aggressive and stabbing you in the back

well not gonna deny that some roiders are outright douches but most I know are very friendly

It's a myth that comes from the insecure and it's even perpetrated by organizations that aim to take advantage of such insecurity. See this for example: https://youtu.be/PdccUsn8N4Y

In reality people who lift are likely to be bro's because all the endorphins they get from lifting makes them happy people in general. Just take a walk in the park on a warm sunny day after a heavy lifting session, you'll feel elated as fuck.

>>154391795
I think most gymgoers are just bros in general and accept newbies because even the biggest guys had to start from somewhere and were once newbies themselves.

Love this manga.

Roids can make some people very unbalanced, so things that should be blown off can't be blown off due to changed body chemistry.

That's also why roids carry an increased risk of suicide. When you come off them it doesn't just change how you lift, it changes how you think and it takes the body a while, if ever, to get things running back up to speed.

Roids are a choice, lots of pros and cons, but people should be informed about them before making a decision.

To be fair, this is one of the few authors I've seen from Japan with some level knowledge of bodybuilding and lifting at all. Even if he doesn't get things right 100% of the time, his heart is still in it. I wonder if there's a way to give him feedback about Danberu.

Plus if nothing else, if it motivates you to lift, at least it's a step in the right direction.

He's literally taking statistic data from the University of Zagreb (and other agreeing universities that specialize in sports medicine). You can say he's wrong, but he has at least 3 universities that directly poll, study and graph these stats in research papers that he's pulling this research from.
Just saying. Yabako looks this stuff up. He loves to study all things like this. The omakes and extra pages from Kengan Asura that the artists likes to make literally depicts him as constantly studying how the body works, watching fights, wrestling, sports events and researching before outlining the fights in that manga.

I also work really hard at leg day in that I come up with unique excuses to skip it fairly often.

>>154404094
leg day is more difficult and energy consuming, especially because I do not just squats but also deads and leg press

Just go early as fuck. Thats when I would always go. Hardly anyone is there, and those who are at the gym at 4 or 5am are all about business and don't have time for bullshit.

>>154414397
I can't. It opens when I go to work and it closes at 2200. I already go at 2030, so I don't see how I could go during a better time. Changing gym is also out of question as the next one is like 20km further away and I already drive 8km to my current one.

>>154414436
Eh, that sucks. My last gym was open 24 hours a day; it was super convenient. Anyway, if you feel unsure at first that's fine. It can be a little intimidating for someone who is new, but don't let that hold you back. Lifting is a good way to stay fit, and can be a fun, sorta zen experience. Give it a go, m8. You don't have to be brave, just fake it.

>>154414505
I think I just have to do it 5-6 times and the fear will be gone. Just gotta muster that courage. The gym is usually super empty at around 2130 but not completely, so I should try it out near the end.

>>154414543
Yeah. Give that a go. I used to hate swimming, had a few bad experiences as a kid, but eventually I got tired of sucking at it so I signed up for a course. By the end I was jumping off of the high dive with no problem. First time was rough, but it was all downhill after that.

Your plan sounds solid, hope things work out for you m8.

I was too afraid to go to the gym at first to and have almost no problems anymore. It should be the same for the free weights area and bench press is literally the worst there. Once I manage the bench press, the rest will be easy.

I'm sincere when I say I actually feel bad altering any part of it just for brevity, more casual or erudite speech patterns or just western context.

Anyway, I'm editing alongside you! Loving it!!

>>154377079
>no gains Hime to lift with
End me.

>>154411219
Look man, I'm mostly just there to look good and get some health benefits. As long as my legs look passable I don't really care if I can squat a truck. I'll do my requisite leg days, skip them once in a while and hate them eternally.

I will never understand people who actually enjoy leg day.

>>154436669
Twisting, lifting with your arms, sure.

But power. Real power, that comes from your legs. When your legs are strong, solid, like the trunk of a tree...you feel powerful. And girls love your ass as much as your chest or biceps. Maybe even more, you know.

>>154436750
Again I don't care about my functional strength. I look pretty damn good and that's the goal. And I squat often enough that my ass looks alright as well. Depends on the girl though in my experience.

All I'm saying, is that one day in a week has to get skipped, it's probably going to be legs.

>>154436817
>Again I don't care about my functional strength
Having "enough" for aesthetics, I understand that, you've already said that. I'm telling you, once you feel REAL strength, you'll remember how much was "enough" and think "I was holding myself back." Especially when you're 30 or 40.

Get strong. Get big and strong and safe and do it now while it's easy to grow and lift and run and swim and eat. It gets harder, it takes longer and you'll lose it faster when you age. Become strong for yourself, not for the mirror. As a bonus: getting strong makes you look GREAT in a mirror! Win-Win!

>>154436919
I dunno man, the strongest guys are always strongfat and I think that looks like shit. I'll keep my lean muscular figure and keep improving at a steady pace. I get the impression you think I'm some young buck but I'm 28. I've been at it for a while and I have a body I'm quite satisfied with.

I appreciate the advice regardless though. Always nice to talk to a fellow lifter.

Arm Wrestling
How to do it

The arm wrestling that all you guys love(?)
Did you know you can reach the next level in regular arm wrestling if you learn arm wrestling techniques?"

So which muscles do you use in arm wrestling in the first place?
The Biceps Brachii? The Triceps?

Too bad.
Those aren't the only ones.

The forearm, the upper arm, rotator cuff, back muscles, and the lower body
So in other words, you're working out and utilizing every muscle in your body [Emphasize 'every muscle in your body']

>>154377390
The proper Arm Wrestling posture
[Labels, going right-left, up-down] Grip the bar with the opposing hand
Shoulders are parallel
Try to line the elbow dead center to your body
Stomach is touching the board
Put the leg that's the same as your wrestling hand forward
If you remember the proper posture, you can effectively use all your body strength.

Proper form
Only arm strength
This may be obvious, but there's a sudden advantage compared to fighting with just arm strength.

Also, when you bring down your opponent's arm down
Using pure arm strength won't be enough.

Bring it down with all your weight at the same time as your arm!
Also, never ever look away from your hand until the match is over! (It can cause serious injury) [Emphasize 'look away from your hand']

>>154377411
The arm wrestling world so deep and seemingly pure...
Why don't you take up the challenge?

>>154377434
Hammer curl
Chinning
Wrist curl
"There are a lot of exercises which train the muscles used in arm wrestling"
"But the most important training is actual practice"
Because there are arm wrestlers who don't do muscle training at all

"First off, let's have Sakura-san and Uehara-san do it"
"Uheeeh... I've never arm wrestled before"
"Hibiki, I won't go easy on you"

"Grip the hand tight"
Grip the first knuckle joint of the thumb between the pointer and middle finger

"Okay then, here we go"
"Readyyyyyyy"

>>154435869
>I-I-I have friends and social life

Yeah and your girlfriend is your right hand.

>>154437034
I'm with ya, I'm barely older at 31. And I agree about strongfats. I'm also a cardiologist and I can tell you the amount of food strongfats eat leads to all sorts of problems despite the strength. I WHOLLY recommend staying lean and watching what you eat. Ultimately, your diet is the most important, even more than lifting.

Stay lean. Get strong. Don't wear out your joints, keep strict form and low impact cardio.

So, is it a good idea to switch over from machines to SS just for a 4-5 months and then proceed with a different program? I feel like I will only be able to bench like 30kg and don't get me started on my squat weight? I have trouble doing 30 without weight.

Official Arm-Wrestling Stance
Grip the bar with the opposite hand
Shoulders remain parallel
Try to align your elbow with the center of your body
Press your stomach to the board
Station your dominant leg, same as your wrestling arm, forward
If you remember the proper stance, you can effectively use all of your body's strength.

Proper Form
Arm Isolated
As may be obvious, there's a sudden advantage comparing the two postures.

Also, when you bring the opponent's arm down,
pure arm strength won't be enough.

Use all your weight and muscles in sync to pull it down!
And never ever look away from your hand until the match is over! (It can cause serious injury) TL: Emphasize 'look away from your hand'

Research

If we're gonna be doin' this tourney, we gotta research arm-wrestling.
Deal.

So let's watch some arm-wrestling-themed movies!
[Over the Tip] TL: Reference to Stallone's "Over the Top"
Oh! *Mutallone's film.
*Lead actor's name

WATCHING...

[Afterword]
Man, Mutallone's so cool!
Let's follow it up with "Mocky" and "Danbo"!
[Ultimately, it became cult-film appreciation meeting.]

TL: Mutallone: Probably some Kengan guy again. Seems like a reference to Stallone.
QC: It's definitely a Sylvester Stallone reference and I read KA and I don't know of an arm-wrestler or a "Mutallone." Given the western audience, something like "Mallone" or "Stellone" might be better, but this is a Japanese manga, so there's no need to go further with the joke. I vote leave it as translated.
QC: Also, the other two films are certainly "Rocky" and "Rambo." So I changed Mokky to Mocky, and I changed "Over the Top" to "Over the Tip" for simplicity. But I think "Danbo" should stay "as is" since Yotsuba! fans will appreciate that as a reference and hopefully still hear the homonym despite the "n" instead of "m".

okay lemme continue

this is bullshit. starvation mode is a myth. to lower your maintenance caloric demand noticeably you have to lose significant amounts of active tissue. just eating less does NOT lower your metabolism

and of course you rebound when you resume your old eating habits that got you fat in the first place. yeah no shit. the point of a changed diet is to maintain it for the rest of your life and endure for at least a couple months when your body has changed its habits and keeping your diet will take no effort or willpower any more

but yeah I like the manga so far

my opinion on lat pulldown is mixed

Id say its a good exercise but I personally only do it occasionally. I prefer chin ups, pull backs (something similar to rows) and lat iso rotation. trains lat ROM more evenly and lat pulldown is kinda tedious and redundant

I wonder when they will finally deadlift. it's maybe the best exercise there is

women literally can't get that muscular no matter how rigurous or long they train. even as a guy when you stay natty and dont have very lucky genetics, you really can't become "too muscular"

this is fucking bullshit. deadlift is one of the safest exercises there are. to injure yourself during the deadlift you have to fuck up big time

bench press is by far the most common injury cause of the big 3 yet everybody loves to do the bench press but many people avoid deadlifts

so stop the excuses and deadlift

I noticed repeated BCAA shilling in this manga

don't take BCAA it's a waste of money. or rather only take it when you are an endurance athlete such as marathon runner. then it will slightly increase the time till you reach fatigue

as an anaerobic athlete aka weightlifter you will get no benefits from BCAAs

the only supplement I'd recommend is creatine. it actually increases your gains a bit. apart from that HMB especially when you're cutting because it increases muscle retention by a lot and in a meta study was listed as the second of only two effective supplements (below creatine) of dozens of supplements. all other supplements have little or no impact on your gains and are a waste of money in that regard

if you want to get additional supplements, instead of BCAAs how about omega 3, multivitamin, vitamin d and maybe even things like magnesium. if you know where to buy them they are dirt cheap and the multivitamin I take is not just a shitty regular one (dont get normal grocery or pharmacy multivitamins, theyre shit and overpriced) but one adjusted to weightlifting with dozens of other things in it

let me add here that everyone should take creatine whether you do sports or not

dirt cheap and increases your overall energy. was even shown to increase brain function a little bit particularly in those with insufficient natural creatin intake (vegetarians) and increases the effects of anti depressants among many other benefits

now to pic related

what they refer to here with "golden time" is the so called anabolic window, which is a wrong myth.

there is no evidence post-workout nutrition raises muscle protein synthesis, muscle tissue protein breakdown is only an issue when fasting and glycogen (energy storage in muscles) does not need to be replenished right away

so this is pure bullshit

dont get me wrong, I still like the manga or I would have dropped it by now. I just want to correct the mistakes

Are bench pressing injuries proportionally more common than deadlift injuries or are they more common because the bench press itself is more common? While it wouldn't surprise me if shoulder injuries from bench pressing are more common back pain is generally worse than shoulder pain.

3% is ridiculous. most people underestimate bodyfat. already 10% is extremely shredded and 7-8% very unhealthy. only dead people reach 3%.

>>154449337
you make a good point of course but bench pressing is proportionally more common as well from what I have experienced anecdotally. many people get shoulder issues and there are also elbow or wrist injuries. of course deadlift injuries, albeit rarer, tend to be more severe. however, take into consideration that deadlifts are the best treatment against backpain that probably exists, better than any medication or operations

a somewhat close friend of mine got dislocated disk from deads tho. he has genetically weak back and he chronically overtrained, lifted too heavy and had shitty form. but he recovered from it within a year. shoulder injuries you sometimes can't recover from. unfortunately I have shoulder issues myself

Seems someone in here likes to comment on the more exaggerated/entertainment value of this manga instead of it being a biology tome. I'm glad you still like it enough, though. There are ways to justify, or debunk, all the "myths" but giving out options and keeping people safe is good for motivations. Also, dead lifts lead to snap city if you do it wrong, everyone knows this. The author explicitly said dead lifts are a dangerous exercise "when done without proper form." I don't think a beginner's muscle training lewd manga is gonna start suggesting 2 pages of cute girls saying "LIFT HEAVY WEIGHT BY PULLING IT OFF THE GROUND, IT'S A BACK EXERCISE!" That'd get him cancelled.

Good to hear you're getting some core work in! Planks are deceptively easy and surprisingly taxing for how simple it is. Doing planks is definitely going to grant you strength and firmness in your core and back and arms and butt and even legs. I'll say, while you're increasing strength and endurance to your abs, maybe even a little size...the definition or "getting slowly visible" is 90% loss of body fat: your calorie count is the big key on that.

Abs aren't like biceps or chest or glutes which grow big and fast when you lift in short heavy bursts. They grow very little and very slowly and require training from every angle. Abs are made in the kitchen, not the gym.

Is there a good deadlift tutorial? I don't want to kill my back.

Your first month of deadlifting should probably be with a trainer/lifter who knows what he's doing and what to look for. Reading about and performing are different things.

It's not bad at low weight, but spinal injuries are bad news. /fit/ might love to talk to you about deadlifts, though.

Oh you certainly can, and you don't need to pay someone or something as a "trainer." Just that effective deadlifting is with max weight possible, not for reps, and that should be done once you're comfortable and proven to do it safely.

I'm sure a simple search of "How to Perform Deadlift" on youtube even should help. Let's see.
Goggle immediately tosses you to stronglifts so that's a good start

compound movements + cardio
I lost around 30lbs and it builds muscles too, especially if you're beginning.
I say this because before dedicating to muscle building, you want to cut, and then go for a bulk if you want.
If you don't know what are compounds, they're exercises that involve more muscles than focusing on one, like deads, bench, overhead press, push ups and many others

>>154459543
So if I'm not mistaken swimming is a good compound muscle exercise? I've heard it effectively trains all your muscle groups at the same time.

>>154459386
Consume fewer calories.
WHAT you eat is technically unimportant when it comes to weight loss/gain.

Eat all the broccoli you want; it ain't gonna match up to the Snickers bar you should have avoided. Water is wonderful! It's great for your body and you need it! So stop drinking 2 L of Coke, which is really bad for you.

Stop drinking alcohol, especially beer or wine.
Stop drinking soda.
Stop eating candy.
Stop overeating.

Doing just that will probably help you lose 20kg and add another 15 years of your life alone.

Based on personal experience I kind of want to recommend making sure your core is where it needs to be first. I struggled with back pain for a long time and when I finally went to a good physical therapist he told me I have an irritated disc in my back because my transversus abdominis isn't supporting my back properly. Try looking into some transversus exercises (because I really don't think people talk enough about it)and working on having good posture both when sitting and standing to start with if you're worried.

The dead lift isn't super complicated. There are tons of videos about form on youtube, and tons of websites that talk about it.

You can video yourself from the side to see if you're keeping on form, and you can always ask for comments on the video by showing it on /fit/ and asking for a form check.

Start off with light weight and concentrate on form, then progress your working load by 10 lbs a session. You will be OK so long as you are not in a hurry to do the lift and forget your fundamentals, just the same as any other lift.

I've decided to bump this.

So how long should one rest if, God forbid, you overtrain? I had to take a week off from my usual routines at the end of February, because I could feel my body just losing strength all over, and I was feeling tired, aching and just miserable as fuck, no matter how much effort I put into it. I've gotten back to it now, but I still don't completely perform at my peak, so I was wondering if a week off was really enough to recover?

I wish that this series would cover overtraining too at some point. It's an important thing to consider.

>>154456790
I think /a/nons should start by walking one mile a day instead of building muscle so fast.

You also have to consider cardio when you start becoming muscular.

Also, remember that Cartilage wears out as we start aging.

Consider Low Impact Exercise.

There are plenty of veteran marathon runners with fucked up knees because they abused their knees too much.

>overtrain
Nebulous word. You'll have to define that term. Broken bone? Torn ligament? Sheared joint? Loss of consciousness? DOMS? Dehydrated? Slept in too late?

The symptoms you describe doesn't sound like over-training. It sounds like under-eating, actually. It's fine to relax the pace if you feel that tiredness is from movement, like your endurance is waned with a lowered upper-limit. After all, "over" can mean "warm-up" to someone else. My suggestion is discover the cause of you lack of motivation. Working out doesn't necessarily make you feel pumped at all times, nor does it guarantee overall mood improvement (rather, erasing depression). But when you have ENERGY, and energy comes from what you take in, all the healing has something to use.

>How long should one rest
If it's injury, until it's healed. If it's emotional, until you're stabilized. If it's because you're tired, weak and not "feeling it" then it's once you've evaluated how important lifting is to your life. Is it important? Then don't stop. Ever. Not so much? Dial it back.

Healthy living is good diet, good movement, happy decisions, challenge yourself with manageable goals. That's drinking lots of water every day for your entire life. That's getting up and being active, safely. That's deciding to relax and play as well as make friends with good people and learn different things and more specific things. That's pushing yourself to save $1,000 this month instead of spending it and to give up an addiction that has little merit to your well-being.

>>154475196
I think that was the anon's point. Eat low calorie, dense fibrous food and they won't go to bed hungry feeling. Unlike eating a snickers bar that is tiny but has goddamned 200 calories for nothing a sugar rush to crash on. Or drinking bubbly syrup fluid thinking you're quenched.

>>154475682
No broken places, except some minor complaints from my back the last time I did squats with free weights. I didn't check my form that time. It's just that my muscles felt so completely worn out and drained, and like, burning during the worst of it. I just couldn't keep going anymore. Definitely some sort of fatigue.

My caloric intake should be in order. When I started a few years back, I was 213 lbs. I'm now at 233 and doing pull-ups with this weight no problemo, until recently.

...I've seen a lot of manga discussion on this board of people casually saying "anime when." Things like Dungeon Meshi anime never, pls and I couldn't help feel like my insides were boiling.

...but this manga, when it's got another volume, I might actually think that's pretty great.
1 Season, 6-12 episodes. How long are episodes? 18 minutes? 20 minutes? This manga could be split in half, per episode. After episode 1 or 2, one chapter per half.
Title cards with the chapter art, opening and endings of the girls showing their hobbies and backgrounds and Machio happy at the gym.
The commercial break hits, there's a couple different bumpers it runs through:
1) Hibiki eating something
2) The Silverman's Gym girls exercising (doing a lift, cycling, toweling after a shower, something like that)
3) Machio in his tracksuit smiling, clothes bursts apart and he starts poses with a completely unchanged face as the girls dead-eye
4) Sensei rummaging or hiding in her cosplay as Akemi, Ayaka and Hibiki are out on the town
Returns back to the episode, but it's a new chapter - a new lift. Maybe some episodes are the longer chapters like the school festival or character introductions (Ayaka's introduction, Sensei's introduction).

Season 1, done. Easy to animate, easy to fill time since you have to do reps and that's an easy 15-20 seconds there, lots of reaction shots, lots of easy environments to draw and the LEARNING and the CHARACTERS are what drive the show...not the plot. You learn, you lewd and you love the characters and their personalities. Fans start clamoring for more. That's not a bad idea. I'd take a Danberu anime. WHEN IT'S READY.

>So how long should one rest if, God forbid, you overtrain?
I can help you out

when you realize you overtrain how about you take 2-3 rest days and then keep training but at decreased frequency and volume? cut a set or two from your heavy lifts and take 1 more rest day than usual. that way you keep progressing instead of completely falling out of the rhythm and you should recover not much slower than completely stopping (which as you see does not work too well). just don't go back to the rhythm that led you to overtrain, at least not without fully recovering first. try this and adjust depending on how it goes

lots of bro science around overtraining but I have experienced it myself. and if it were to happen to me again this is how I would deal with it
