Is protein a meme? How much protein do I really need? Should I really be struggling to hit a certain protein goal each day, or is the effect not that much?
Someone homopill me on this shit. Hard to find solid science that isn't funded by supplement companies or just pure broscience
dont need as much as some people on here say.
as long as your over 100g of protein youll b fine

I already use it mate, that's literally nothing to do with the question
How does one fix knees going inwards when squatting?
Concentrate on pushing them outward. Deload until you can do it properly.
>>42135313
Mostly focus and proper warm up. Do glute activation drills, specifically abductors
>>42135313
Drop like 100 lbs and squat with your knees pressed out, do this until you find the top weight you can do 5 of
If your knees go in even a little don't count it
If you do it right your inner thighs will be sore af because this is the first time your hip adductors worked
Source: I now bench and squat 195x5 cause my good girl muscles are pathetic and weak

I'm fucking quitting bodybuilding and I'm distancing myself from "lifting culture" forever.
It's fucking cancerous and filled with nerds and social outcasts. Congrats you faggots, you just made strength training that much more inaccessible to normies.
Powerlifters are fucking weird and pee themselves when they deadlift. They smell like shit. They put harambe and Arnold memes in their hardcore gyms. They walk around like fat people because of their swollen lats and quads and can't walk in a straight line.
I'm going to go to a globo gym and do lat pull downs and run on a treadmill. At least I won't be surrounded by autistic fuckwads who played magic the gathering in high school.
Fuck you faggots and fuck this low IQ blue collar nerdbro shit. This lifestyle isn't normal or healthy.
tl;dr. fuck off back to your safe space, whiny bitch.

Why do you feel the need to announce to everybody here that you're leaving? Do you want people to argue with you or are you just an attention seeking faggot?
why don't you just stop being a weeb and do what i do. Fuck everyone and everything. I put in my fucking music and do whatever the fuck i want in a pretty hardcore gym. most people their are competing or have competed in competed in competitions. it is some little whole in the wall but it had a good price. sure people might be wondering why i cant squat 300 pounds or why my deadlift form isnt perfect. but i still workout there and do my think and still get plenty of pussy. chicks like a guy with decent sized arms...any vanilla bitch doesnt care about your max bench... only brofags care about that shit
I am on my 3rd month back to the gym after completely fuck up with my left forearm.
My gains are coming on rather quickly though. So I went to check a strength standard chart on http://strengthlevel.com/strength-standards.
The chart says I'm already a novice of 6+ months of training based on strength. So my question is:
are the standards chart on this site correct based on your own situation.. and if not am I just a lucky guy(with possible muscle memory).
From what Ive read yes it's a thing.
Essentially muscle fibers are actually long cells with multiple nuclei and when they grow they just add additional nuclei. when you stop working out the fiber shrinks but you retain the nuclei and when you start again you already have extras for your current size
interestingly enough this is why a small run of test is so effective because it stimulates the extra growth in the cells. You guys are free to correct and thing I got wrong, me being a retarded layman and all.
>>42134708
Yeah this, it's more the building blocks are already there just kinda "dormant"
How long did you train before you got injured?
Is there ever a reason for a man to weigh less than 170 lbs?
If he weighs less is he still a man.
6'1", 170 lbs is the cut off for man status.
>>42134359
You just binged didn't you?
>>42134359
You actually think about dumb shit like this you gigantic homo
If youre 6'1 and weigh 170, youre not a man. I know people who are 5'4 and weigh as much as you.
im 320 at 6'3"
Is it trully posible for me to get an aesthetic build?
ive heard people say you need to """own"""" it but desu if i can't look fantastic i may not even want to try, being healthy really only feels like a side benefit.
Pic releated is a physique i love to have.
>>42134206
you need to shell out for some kind of surgery to remove excess skin
>>42134304
>>42134206
as long as you dont drop all that weight in a super short amount of time you'll be fine, aim fro 1-2 lbs a week and stick the fuck with it. don't try some crazy deficit or something
>>42134304
i know its looks like its going to be like 20ish grand it seems
Why do people hate fats so much? Loosing weight is easy, dealing with this disgusting skin is the hard part.

Might as well be gay and date a man ya faggot no one wants a manly looking woman.
why dont girls work
Some are content to be defined by the men they date. Avoid those.
Only value a woman has is to make a child. Once we have artificial wombs we will have no need for the human leeches known as female.

Tf that sounds like such a dull life
What are some good cockroach recipes? I don't have to buy them because I can hunt them around my house. Are the eggs good to eat too?
>>42133525
Never change fit
My favorite roach recipe is Manti
>>42133525
Just eat them alive and raw, they're most nutritious like that. And yes, the eggs are excellent. Try to get pregnant roaches, it's like calamari except you lose your dignity as a human with every crunch.

How the fuck do you guys not get bored of lifting 4+ days a week? how do you not mentally burn out?
after years of lifting and playing sports since i was a kid it's just fucking boring
don't you want to go on a hike, get laid, take a class, get a degree, put in more hours at work and advance your career, make art, develop hobbies, travel?
why would molding your body ever get boring. you can lift 4 days a week and still do all those things you listed

>you can lift 4 days a week and still do all those things you listed
no, no you can't.
Can you actually fix this shit yourself or do you have to see a chiropractor?
>>42132440
Just be conscious of it and make an effort to lean back more.
>visiting a meme doctor
Kek
>>42132440
Fixing it and seeing a chiropractor are mutually exclusive.
>Go to a family gathering, they get McDonald's...
>Literally nothing healthy there. I remove the cheese, just eat 2 kids burgers.
>Watch everyone in my midwest family eat this trash and say junk like "well it has protein in it, so it's healthy" when I ask where the veggies at.
>Holy fuck that was awful, I feel disgusting.
>Shower after, drink lots of water, do an hour of running.
>Still feel sick, all I can think of is the fat that probably just went to my gut.
How do I clear my body of this toxin /fit/? I eat clean and just learned to crave healthy foods,
>>42130570
Boogies pre surgery diet looks like it's going we'll in that pic
>>42130570
Do a semen cleanse to clear your body of all toxins.
>>42130570
Maybe get a healthier approach towards food, yeah McDonald is shit, but it's not a deadly dose of radiation you're made it out to be.
Unless you are a fat fuck or competing, it's ok to have that 90/10 ratio when it comes to healthy vs shitty food
