Are you making sure you take care of your non-muscle fitness and health, /fit/?
No but I'm very curious as to how I could get my resting heart rate down.
A real man lifts for other men after learning The Way Of Men.
You do know about The Way Of Men, don't you /fit/?

Fuck off with your shit.

>pleb wonders why he can't make progress
Honest question: would taking viagra or cialis or whatever before lifting increase gains at all? Isn't the point of it to open up your test production?
that's not what it does at all, you dumbfuck.
>>42761107
WHat does it do
>>42761091
Some bodybuilders actually do take it (in smaller doses) as a preworkout because it's supposed to give a really good pump. It doesn't increase gains just blood flow though.
Failure at life.
Failed study.
Work minimum wage cuck job.
Barely a social life, anyone who I used to be friends with has since moved on and understandably doesn't want to hang with that guy who still lives in the same town and works minimum wage.
Not particular good at anything aside from lifting.
Fill my days with work, lifting and eating.
In weekends go out with colleagues and pull once every so often.
Basically my life revolves around lifting, it is all I have and all I am good at. If it weren't for lifting all I would do would be working minimum wage to pay the few bills I get, putting the rest into savings/investment. Any fitizens like me?
>>42761038
Nice blog post
Sort yourself out retard
>>42761060
Why? I am not unhappy, just wandering if anyone else around here has their lives revolve around fitness.
Failure at life and cuck minimum wage job weren't comments I made to lament my fate, they were merely objective observations. I guess technically it is only failure when I consider it to be and am unhappy, but I doubt my life is ever going to make it into the book "1000 greatest success stories ever told", hence the observation.
>go to gym
>crush weight/reps for lift
>go next week
>can't even do 1rep of prescribed, only 5 lbs heavier weight
>derack to previous weight
>can't even get up one rep
Why the fuck does this happen, and how can I stop it?
Lift is deadlift, couldn't pick up 400 lbs or 395 lbs @ 240 bw, currently cutting at 2400 kcal/day
>>42761002
>currently cutting
welp
>>42761007
Makes no sense though
I come back from a 3 day camping trip eating shitty camping food and crush my reps and a week later I am barely babby tier again?
There has to be a way to mitigate this
>>42761007
Also how the hell does that explain 5->0 reps AT THE SAME FUCKONG WEIGHT???
:D

If one gets lipo but is still natty, is one a /fraud/?
Im pretty sure i have forward head or kyphosis or some shit and i cant keep my neck/upper back straight when doing deadlifts and squats. Should i keep going even though my form looks like shit or just kys myself?
>>42760778
start neck training, get a neck harness and stretch your neck over the edge of your bed every night for 3 minutes then add a minute every week. Its gunna hurt to reset it, but once it is set and your keep training the muscles will stay put and you'll be saving urself a lot of trouble later on down the road.
According to the Tang dynasty physician , below are the guidelines for optimum health ; a robust male of 20 may ejaculate twice daily, but an emaciated one should do so no more than once daily.
A 30-year-old male may ejaculate once a day, but only once every two days if he's an inferior specimen.
A flourishing man of 40 may emit semen once every three days, but if he's weak he may do so only once every four days.
A robust man of 50 may ejaculate once every five days, but only once every ten days if he is weak.
A 60-year-old man in good health may emit once every ten days, or once every 20 days if his health is poor.
At 70, a robust man emit once a month, but a weak one should no longer emit semen at all.

As the title says, Is lifting a hobby / lifestyle for social outcasts and autists?
The regulars I've seen at the gym are all either social outcasts, /r9k/ tier autists and maybe some people invloved in night life like bouncers and drug dealers. While all the normies stick to the gym for no more than a month or two.
What made me realize that lifting is for socially isolated people, is that when I run into some old high school mates into the gym. They were your typical skinnyfat dyel fuck arounds, but they are all having fun living their life while drinking, partying, fucking chicks, having GFs etc. While I'm shredded (even by /fit/ standards), and all I do is play vidya, fap, go to the gym and eat 6 times a day.
Normies never stick to lifting, because they are too busy enjoying their life to bother with all this crap.
Is lifting a hobby for people with no other interests in life?
Are you a social outcast?
Are we wasting our life away?
r9k tier autist here. Lifting isn't a hobby, it's everything. my diet is shit though
>drinking, partying, fucking chicks, having GFs
Waste of time except for GF. You can have a gf and lift also. To me travelling is the best use of my limited time on earth, normies like that too and I agree. But to travel you need money and I didn't get it being a fuckarounditis victim.
I lift just to see my genetic potential. I'm already 6'1" and I fell for the memes here. Seems like a waste to die a lanklet without seeing whether I could ascend into fuck you lookin at mode
>>42760466
Its mildly autistic, but so are all other rewarding things if you stick to them
Normie's all get fat out and out of shape after high school
