shouldnt those be the final solution for neck training? they offer security and smooth progression of resistance compared to neckbridges or harnesses?
>recomping with SS at maintenance for 4 months
>slightly cutting sometimes
>already have a thicker, more defined neck
>no neck isolation
>sides of my neck feel muscular and nice when I touch 'em
I also like to touch my own arms, shoulders, glutes, and sometimes my calves.
But the satisfaction I get from grabbing myself from the neck and feeling the definition in my neck is much stronger than any other part of my body.
Glutes are nice too, tho.
Can /fit/ help a guy get ready for boot camp?

I know I need to stop being a fag also not an American
quick question from non /fit/ guy
I think I read:
>focus on muscle mass, getting BIG
as heavy as you can lift, pushing limits
>focus on strength
more focusing on reps than on increase in weight
Is this true in its core?
>>42316095
Yeah exept you mixed up the two, if you interchange them it's correct
>>42316133
oh
so exercising with as much as you can, even if only 10 reps per set will give strength
and doing 30 reps per set with lower weight would be more focused on looking big?
>>42316168
Yep, but strengh is more like 4-6 reps and hypertrophy (looking big) is 8-12.
You should balance the weight so that depending on what ur working, you end up in theses rep ranges. Good luck on your lifting journey

How did I do?
>>42316027
>intermediate fasting
>lift weights
>damage muscles
>wait for adaptation & recovery
>when muscles recover, damage them again
how can this possibly get you strong? you're only getting stronger to lift weights. whenever there's something else to do IRL with strong muscles, you either have damaged and weak muscle tissue, or lifting weights at the gym.
weightlifting only gets you aesthetik.
and only stronger for when you hit the gym next time.
>strength training debunked.
>>42315993
stfu and go lift faggot.
ideally we would all want to have lumberjack hunter warrior type lives but if a faggy gym is all you got then make due
>>42316012
>make *do
I squat 350lbs my bruh hbt
>he thinks recovery takes an entire day
I take protein powder designed to digest quickly and get to where it needs to be quickly. I workout in the evening. I take the powder, then wait a bit, and eat dinner. By morning, I feel pretty refreshed. After breakfast, I feel 100% recovered. I workout everyday and my numbers are steadily going up every week. On top of this all, I work in construction. I lift 75lbs bags of cement all day, I carry bundles of rebar all day, I am constantly carrying heavy shit around or lifting heavy shit to others above my head.
Taking a whole day off to rest is a meme.
What's some good cheat day snacks to carb up?
>workout yesterday
>second week of working out
>on an ABAB type of schedule
>Workout B has deadlifts 1x5
>Do 3 deadlifts on 75lbs
>feels a little too easy
>go up to 85
>Barely make it to 1x5
>endorphins rush my brain
>actually feel good about myself for once
>goes away in 15 minutes
>need more
Holy shit this is like crack.

Gotu Kola helps a lot with Loose skin.
Help me /fit/, does anyone have any stories of beating achilles tendinitis?

>>42315744
Have you already tried slow eccentric calf raises for rehab?
There are stretches that target that area of recommend dynamic warm ups before exercise and static stretches after that target the calves and tendon back there I can post some links if you want
It works when you're young. Works post 20, too, but it takes a lot of time to see change. A lot. You should do it anyways because it's correct tongue posture.

You're going to injure yourself because you're not allowing your body to repair itself though.
