Tfw 165 lbs at 6'0 and supposedly 8% body fat (no bully pls) according to the pharmacy machine and still look like shit because of long legs, wide quads and short torso.
Do I have potential? As you can tell I don't lift, however I did various sports such as martial arts, swimming, bodyweight exercises etc. on and off since I was a teen. Want to start lifting soon.
>>42281856
not near 8% m8, closer to 14-16%
>Do I have potential?
Lift and find out
>>42281889
then how do those shitty machines work
I had to grab some handles as it it analysed my body fat

stop asking stupid questions and get to the gym. report back to us after a month
Do you need to have a good career to make it? I work in a white collar office environment, does that mean my dreams are already crushed before they even began?
Happiness is the key to making it
Reviewing fast food on youtube is making it
>>42281770
Depends on what you're dreams are. If you have dreams other than working some sheeple white collar job, than no.
Reviewing fast food in suits you bought from the thrift store while living with your mommy and making tons of autism/youtube bucks?Than yes.
You didn't forget to do your sprints this week did you now anon?
Holy shit, is that SIUe?
Is there a limit to how heavy of dumbbells I should be using for Bulgarian split squats? I use 60's now and I don't know if it will get dangerous if I go too high.
>>42281737
I want something out of you good sir, you shall be the test dummy, and together we will find out if there is a weight that is dangerous for bulgarians. I will be the control.
>>42281737
I went up to 50kg dumbbells and then ran out so switched to doing BSS in a front squat rack position. It's harder and I had to work back up to 100kg, but my balance and normal back squat improved quicker when I switched to BB rather than DB.
Basically, you can go until you run out of dumbbells.
why not just do them with barbell? is there a reason why you can only do them with dbs?
What the fuck is up with restaurant portions in America? I've lost 17 lbs since April and I've come to the realization that if I am to continue losing at all, I basically need to not eat any restaurant food, period. Every fucking meal is like 2000 calories and it's not so bad to split it up into thirds throughout your day but the meals are never ever balanced and at the end of your day it feels like you haven't eaten shit.
I know, I know, I fucking know that I'm late to this. America is fat yada yada I fucking know. But holy shit. It's still kind of aggravating since my friends always want to go out for dinner and there is literally nothing on the menu less than 1000 fucking calories.
>>42281665
Just don't eat it all at once and save some for later. It's not a social faux pas to get a box for your food.
>>42281665
Do you eat every meal at a cheesecake factory? Plenty of restaurants have actual low calorie options lol
But yes, its generally better to prepare most of your meals at home. You can better control calorie and macro/micro intake if you track those.
>>42281665
Large portions are generally a sign of a bad restaurant. maybe eat out less and go to fancy restaurants when you do.

>He does """powerlifting""" and not olympic lifting
Enjoy being weaker than even female olympic lifters
If you're not literally competing in the olympics then "olympic" lifting is just cringeworthy LARPing. You're like a weeaboo except you're idolizing the olympics instead of Chinese cartoons. Powerlifting number 2, oly lifting number 3, bodybuilding number 1.
>being so ashamed of your sexuality because of feminist brainwashing that you can't even admit to yourself that you want to look like you lift
shiggydiggy
>>42281725
You say "idolizing the olympics" as if idolizing the literal peak of human performance is supposed to be something bad

Does anyone here have family troubles regarding fitness?
Mom runs marathons, is extremly /fit/, and has encouraged me to do exercises throughout my life. Grandma is a doctor, so one would expect her to also encourage me to do exercise.But....
>mfw they dont
>mfw they tell me to just to do stretches
>mfw grandma sends me a few cardio vids. One of them says in the title that it is to build an ass.
>mfw I tell granny bout this. ''Muscles dont have gender, anon''.
I love em both, but I still wanna exercise. Havent stoped tho, I just do it without them knowing. Grandma uses the example of a uncle who suposedly lost over 1 fucking foot beacuse he started doing pull ups ''to early''.
I dont wanna dissapoint them, but I also wanan workout. So ill just keep it secret for now on, until they give me the greenlight.
Anyone else has been or is going through something similar?
Share your stories with gainz goblinz /fit/, doesnt matter if its family, a gf, a friend, or
whatever.
See folks this is the ultimate "how to show everyone on this board that I'm a spoiled underaged who decided to shitpost" post.
>6pm
>sleepy as fuck
>planned to go lift but it's gonna be nothingness special because I'm tired
This has been happening 95% of the time for the past 10 years. Should I take a nap?
Turn the shower to the coldest it can go then hop in for a few minutes that should wake you up
Anyone try this stuff? Or any of the other products they sell?
How well did it work if you did and were there any major side effects?
>>42281396
Bro, sit down. Let me give it to you straight. Don't buy supplements. Just roid.
>"Trenorol"
Kek. $62 bucks for this shit?! Nigger, just buy two vials of test-e and call it a day.

Just to reiterate, if you actually think you'll get big off pic related then you're fucking retarded.

Steroids are illegal. Legal = not steroids. Not steroids = doesn't work like steroids. Quit being so fucking stupid. OF COURSE THEY DONT WORK! It's a scam.
As a guy, what routine and diet will allow me to be like Sola? life is fucking unfair I want to dress up like cute anime girls like chino-chan
How do I stop feeling insecure about my body and looks?
you either don't and keep trying to improve or you tell insecurities to go fuck themselves and you liev like the true alpha you were meant to be. Both solutions are acceptable, though one is clearly better than the other.
>>42281314
you leave this board
Don't ever come back here.
Do any more of you brahs get unnecessarily irritated at people acting like idiots in the gym?
Like I'm at the gym right now watching what looks like two high school age girls doing 1/8 bodyweight squats in the middle of the room and it's pissing me off
>>42281237
Yep. That's one of the reasons I unironicaly do crossfit. None of that shit
