What injury risk?
There is NO EVIDENCE that barbell deadlifts cause spinal injury.

Examined even further, each man was strapped to a machine that supplied an electric current to the nerves that stimulated the leg muscles. This electrical stimulation device was used for a basis of comparison to determine how each participant’s nerve cells could achieve 100 percent efficiency, which cannot be achieved through exercise alone. Researchers repeated this test several times over three weeks. During this trial period, the team saw that those who lifted light weights increased their nerve capacity from 90.7 percent to 90.22 percent, which is hardly a difference. Those who lifted heavy weights, on the other hand, increased their nerve capacity by 2.35 percent, with a jump from 90.94 percent to 93.29 percent.

Professor Nathaniel Jenkins, who conducted the research, hypothesized that the increase in nerve capacity directly translated into muscle strength. He claims that high-load training is “more efficient” and prompts “greater [neural cell] adaptations.”

Bigger is not always better

The assumption that bigger bodies are stronger is misleading. There is evidence that proves that those with a bigger frame are more capable of carrying heavier loads; but this is not entirely inclusive nor conclusive of strength. Body-building experts, along with medical professionals, are now noting a distinct nuance between body mass and strength. Most indicative of strength, these professionals say, is how well-engaged motor neurons are.

The power of a muscle’s contraction is heavily reliant on neural associations. The more motor neurons are activated, as well as the strength of impulse sent by each cell, determine the quantity of muscle fibers that contract. Heavy weight lifting is more effective in making motor neurons act more efficiently. In a sedentary person, motor neurons still discharge impulses, but in a disorderly fashion. Constant training improves this process, generating more powerful nerve impulses. To fully reach this state, people should perform weight training exercises with loads that are 80 percent of their maximum strength.

Understand the hidden implication of this: there will be days when one feels stronger. This has nothing to do with the size of the muscles, but the efficiency of the central nervous system. People who are not well-rested will feel minute differences in their overall strength.

the same way anyone pulls anything off.
Be good looking.

How is this fit related?

Regardless, look at Depp.

Reincarnation is logically impossible.

God has spoken

>>42222777

False. You have been reincarnated as your present self

>>42222625
if this guy came from complete skelly in a relatively short period of time, than yes this is good progress

Is it true he quit lifting?

>>42222653
He got so fat he probably got stretch marks and shit. Bulking like that does nothing good for you, no point gaining a bunch of fat

>>42222619
>4000 kcal/day

Back to your crypt you skeleton, shoo

>>42222619

Eat things that are dense in calories, on top of your protein goals.
Potato, bread, milk.

don't try to eat 4000kcal of lean meats and veg.

Burgers?

you're already ready and will probably be better than 90% of the other recruits. try running longer distances.

Literally all you need to do is run constantly.
The better you are at running the less shit you'll get because the instructors only dish out PT punishment for two reasons.
1. They don't think you'll pass the PT test
2. You're a superstar and a lightning rod to keep the other people in line.
That's it, unless you do something to piss off your instructors.

>>42222604
I just want any help at getting better than I already am, I don't like cutting it so close is all and I wan't to be at peak performance when I show up.

Otter mode + serious lifting.
You're a delusional jelly fat ass if you think otherwise.

>>42222555
who cares about the arbitrary label you attach
just go lift. as you get bigger you'll work out how to look like him

>tfw diddlying 3pl8 and an old lady says "woah that looks heavy!"

t-thanks

there's your biological age, and then there's your fighter age

by 21 years old, you've got guys who have a fighter age of 11. they've got over a decade of physical and neural conditioning to physical combat. you can't compensate for that kind of muscle memory and reflexive training just by hopping in with no training and trying hard

now it's not to say that it's impossible for you to enjoy the sport of boxing and possibly experience wins among people at your level, but you have to be realistic about this

but I've been training and sparring on and off since 10 years ago

>>42222386
This is exactly right. I started Muay Thai at 18 and even that was too late for me to become pro. That being said, you can still compete, still learn alot, and still have fun doing it.

The beautiful manlet.

Height is important but an ugly face with feminine features is pretty much a death sentence.

>dont do either of those

Dumbbell weights are per dumbbell, also I have a shoulder issue that only hurts when I barbell bench press.

>Bench: BB 225x5 vs DB 190x5
>Incline: BB 205x5 vs DB 170x5

I do standing OHP with the bar but seated with DBs so I don't think those are comparable.

What would be the dumbell equivalent of 1/2/3/4? I have up to 120lb dumbbells.
