Any tall guys here experience this? I'm 6'4" and my upper back and traps especially are way underdeveloped compared to the rest of my body.
No matter what I do, pull-ups, rows, lateral pull-downs, face-pulls, I feel it much more in my arms before my back ever gets tired.
Any exercises that really isolate this muscle without engaging your arms?
Pendlay Rows to your chest. Retract scapula for pull up and bring your chest to the pull up bar.

Retract your scapula first then pull
Trap muscles primarily move your scapula and also help with lowering your shoulders. I usually do pull ups where I place the back of my head in front of the bar while the rest of the body is behind it. Tends to contract my scapula a lot.
How do I stop myself from masturbating in the shower post workout
I always break nofap during post workout showers how do I keep my hands off my dick? Pls brehs I just finished and am heading home right now, I want to make it past day 2

Why is that so bad? It's not like fapping is getting in the way of your gains cause you're going to the gym.
That's how I regulate my masturbation, if I want to jerk it, I have to go to the gym and workout first.
If you really want to stop though, start taking a preworkout with DMAA in it. Your bloodflow and nervous system will be so worn out by the time you're done that you can't get a boner.

might want to keep your eyes off of Chad's dick during shower time, OP

I've never had a wet dream in my life, so I stopped jacking off and now I just stew in my own supply of test all day.
Start thinking of women as load goblins in addition to gains goblins. Also maybe start respecting yourself a bit more?
What does one do with these?
Throw them in the trash?
>>41966026
Just try to close it as many times as you can, a few times a day.
Start with one that you can only just close for one rep at most, and keep using it until you can do it for 15 reps per hand.
They work really well if you're consistent with them.
Also keep it with you if you are prone to bad moods and/or anger, as doing it when angry is really good.

Put dick through hole x failure
What would you boys do if you saw me in the gym? :)
Id run.
>>41965998
silently think "good for that guy for trying to improve himself."
You know come to think of it I see tons of skellys at my gym trying to make it but never fatties.
>that feel when no amount of lifting can make up for the years of isolation you've experienced

Go forth and prosper op.
I'm looking for a specific style of fitness routine, but my hours of searching yield me naught.
/fit/, help me create a regimen so I can achieve that Chun li leg and hips aesthetic, with a nice toned torso / arms
>>41965860

>>41965860
post whole body, no clothes, face showing, with a time stamp and I'll see what I can do
Redpill me on bcaas. What are they best used for? Or are they a meme?
>>41965749
They are pretty much the definition of a successful supplement industry meme.
They don't do anything.
They are found in abundance in all good sources of protein including whey protein.
The shills tried to push for a while that they help with fasted workouts, which has been shown to be pretty much bollocks.
Don't waste your money on BCAAs.
>>41965749
marketing meme like all supplements
protein powder is food so I don't consider it a supplement
Layne Norton advocates them so you know they're 100% meme
Hey /fit/, /tv/ here. Are these effective exercises?
I wanna suck Bela's féminine pusy!
>>41965476
Sure. It's a core exercise pretty much. There's plenty of other exercises that outclass that specific movement.
Does anyone else have wacky names for their lifts? I have a couple lifting buddies and we like to make up stupid names. For example, we refer to dead lifts as "Heave Ho-Henrys" and Tricep Extensions as "Goblin Lowers". Are we alone in this?
Plead don't try to force a meme
i do african ladys which are sit ups while balancing a medicine ball over my head like those african ladies that balance baskets full of water/clay over theor heads
>>41965437
I call krock rows, 'faggot makers'
>be a powerlifter
>can't run a mile
>don't have the discipline to do more than a few seconds of cardio at a time
>do short bursts of cardio and call it "conditioning"
Does powerlifting attract people with weak minds, or does it foster a weak mind in those who partake?
>>41965238
it attracts people that want to lift heavy stuff
>>41965238
post a pic of your current body and your lifts and how fast you can do a 5k and 10k
