>Latsbrah says to train your muscles every day or every second day ie. "progressive overload"
>Scoobs says to train each muscle once a week
who's right?

Latsbrah is half Scooby's age and bigger than Scooby
It depends on your personal recovery times.
Beginners and people on gear will have much shorter recovery than experienced nattys. Also genetics, sleep, nutrition play a role in this. There is no universal answer.
>>42250273
I think I have pretty good genetics and my body can handle a lot, I just have a tendency to overdo it. trying to find a healthy mid point. just seems there's a lot of fear mongering around overtraining
>tfw always thought that 4-6 reps were ideal to build mass and get strong
>thought 10-12 reps was ideal for burning fat
>now I read that 12-15 reps is ideal to build muscle
WHICH ONE FUCKING IS IT GOD DAMN IT
>>42250212
obviously you have to stop reading
rep ranges literally do not matter
>>42250226
prove it
>tfw gave into shitty eating habits this weekend
I feel like absolute shit. How do I kick this sugar habit? All goes well until at some point in the week I fucking stop thinking and binge. Any personal tips or stories to help? I still have 15lbs left to lose on this cut before maintenance.

>Asuka will never ride your baloney pony
Meditate every day.
It helps disassociate yourself from thoughts and urges.
>>42250299
Whoops wrong pic
Anyways Op I don't think there's any way to slay the sugar dragon except by pure will
just keep the complex carbs coming in and stay hydrated

Just about how right was my friend when he said I was about to hit my downfall?
Should I embrace my downfall? or should I fight for my /fit/ness?
>>42249965
Maintain brother. She wants you to join the rest of the crabs in the bucket. Keep climbing.
>>42249987
>She wants you to join the rest of the crabs in the bucket
Sorry bro, the burger's getting to my head. Explain what that means?
>>42250010
Crabs in a bucket mentality is when other people don't want you to succeed, so they try to 'pull you back in' to the bottom of the bucket due to envy, insecurity, etc.
Gf is a gainz goblin bro, tread lightly
>Another day totally wasted on 4chan again
How do I stop wasting all my time on this god forsaken website?

go to the gym and read books. Just get outside

see ya tomorrow btw
Was about 190-220lbs with a peak of 235 for about a month. Losing about 1.5lbs a week while also lifting (about 2 months in, 15lbs). Just turned 20. I know those factors + genetics are important, also important to note that I eat clean and drink lots of water. I think a good goal would be ~165lbs, and then see what my body fat % is from there.
I know it's better to be otherwise fit whilst having a little loose skin rather than being super fat but I don't know if I'll be able to take off my shirt comfortably when it's all said and done.
Does that sound like a scenerio in which I'll have flat man tits and pretty bad torso sag? I've been kinda worried thinking about it and don't want to spend thousands of dollars down the line just to feel comfortable in my body after being so disciplined with it.
Pic related, obviously not expecting to look THAT bad since I'm only looking to drop like 1/3 the weight that guy did (~50lbs opposed to 170)
>>42249921
You might have some, loosing slowly helps. You are also young which is a huge bonus. Very real chance that you have very minimal loose skin, and with muscle growth you could have none. Keep at it. We are all gonna make it.
>>42249921
Because you are only 20, you probably won't have as much saggy skin as someone who lost a lot of weight in their 30s. Also you should moisturize your skin and not lose weight too quickly so it has time to adjust.
Also, maybe think about not going all the way down to 165, unless you're some kinda 5'10 manlet. Just keep lifting and see what happens
I came to /fit/ to ask about this:
I'm a 5'0" or 5'1", 105 lbs. 20 year old woman. A 500 calorie deficit is 30% of my intake. Will this be be unhealthy or give me loose skin? I can dial it back to 250, but to me, that's kind of like stopping while biking up a steep hill.
>blocks your path
>>42249877
>block his asshole
>>42249877
dude is fucking massive standing next to his fridge
>jog slightly faster than fast walking speed for 11 seconds as he starts panting and sweating trying to block me
>walk past him with Zozz chin as he takes his 5 min rest
What does fit think of this routine for building hypertrophy as a beginner/intermediate
>>42249861
What works for one person might be useless for someone else so if you like that routine then try it out for a gew months and if you make gains then stick to it.
>single arm bent over row
How does that works OP?
>>42251137
Dumbell or Tbar?
>>42249861
Not bad*, could have some RDLs after squats though.
*assuming you do PPLPPLx and not something very very silly like PxPxLxx

Impregnate a race of angry manlets and leave them with angry manlet descendants
Become battle scarred
Become damaged through actual contact sport competition such as boxing, kickboxing, or MMA.
None of that "hurr my fucking shin scabs are battle scars" garbage I see posted here
or those retards who are like "hurr my stretch marks are battle scars" like fucking idiots lmao
I have a classmate who's thin, he says he doesn't want to go to the gym because the retard holds onto the idea that muscular dudes (or at least GUYS WITH SOME FUCKING MUSCLE MASS) "CANT EVEN WIPE THEIR OWN ARSE BECAUSE THEY CAN'T MOVE THEIR LIMBS LMAO". The guy takes things to binary extremes as if you could only be Mr skeltal or Ronny Coleman. He also insists that thin people are faster than muscular people. How the fuck do I redpill him? I feel bad leaving him in ignorance and he seems to have potential
>>42249830
>He also insists that thin people are faster than muscular people.
Race him, bet on him going to the gym or you not bringing up the gym again.
>>42249870
>>42249830
This.
Or just show him how mobile and flexible you are.
Seriously these people are cancerous. They're like the skellies who say gaining weight is bad for your heart so they want to stay "thin"
>>42249830
Your "classmate" is insecure about his weight, he does not want to be redpilled because he's in denial
Of all the intermediate level programs, which one is the best for aesthetics? I really don't care that much about having a 400 lb max bench or anything, I lift to look good.
>>42249828
>I lift to look good
i hope you are not natty then
>>42249828

>>42249833
I'm natty but I'm somewhere between skinny fat and athletic. ~10-14% bodyfat, ~21.5 BMI
>cancelled my gym membership
>qt receptionist said she was going to miss me
fuck off you little beta boy that is starved for female attention. Is a girl say "im going to miss you" that significant that you need to blog about it to your 4chan friends?
You're pathetic. GO OUTSIDE AND TALK TO WOMEN. INTERACT WITH THEM. MAKE SOME FRIENDS. STOP FLOODING THIS BOARD WITH PATHETIC SHIT.
>>42249783
go to your gym and ask her out. You don't there anymore, worst case she will say no and you won't see her again the rest of your life
she say that to everyone who cancels you retard
