i started SSRIs a while ago and my drive to lift and eat right has fucking vanished
lexapro makes me complacent and unmotivated to change, not just my fitness
i can't stop filling my face hole with gross expensive dogshit food, yesterday i binged at mcdonalds and a few hours later ordered mozzarella sticks and fries
please god help me fit i don't know where else to go

Don't take antidepressants, or try a different one. A doctor will understand if you say a med is interfering causing negative effects on your lifestyle. I got off lexapro because it killed my dick.
>>41927501
my desire to fuck my gf is gone
and when we do fuck i don't finish
it doesn't matter too much because she's like borderline asexual
what meds did you try after lexapro?
>>41927548
>she's borderline asexual
You mean she is just using you as a mental crutch(possibly also as a provider) whilst she is out fucking Chad?

That's my fat ass as of today.
28 years old, 5'10, 265
Been doing regular cardio for a month now, mostly 30 minute interval training on the elliptical machine, hands on the bars, arms pumping, not on the stationary handles.
Also do row machine every few days for about 10 minutes, and also swim 1-2 times per weekend. Occasionally power-walking on the treadmill with the incline as high as it will go. These are in addition to the elliptical. Elliptical is every day, no exceptions.
Last Monday I started starting strength.
Diet consists of a fuckton of egg, poultry, and beef protein, a lot of water, coffee, and tea, a cliff bar typically every day on weekdays, and fruit on weekends. Today I'll be picking up spinach, peppers, onions, muchrooms, and some other veggies to start mixing in as well.
I still have some simple carbs and refined sugars in my diet. They're hard to eliminate, but I'm keeping them to a minimum.
What tips, thoughts, criticism, or advice can you guys offer? I have an overwhelming desire to lift on rest days. Is this bad? What if I do lifts that aren't part of SS, like curls, etc.?
I've already started seeing minor results, like pants feeling a bit looser, and looking better in the morning. How long before I can realistically expect to see significantly lower fat? Don't care about getting cut or ripped, just want power and no fat.

Omg your body is beautiful. Get into powerlifting, my cozy bear. :P

Is it bad to lift on rest days if doing lifts that aren't in SS?
Is it ok to be jelly of a grill's upper body?

Let's make this a thing.
>>41926522
Rich is the definition of a living meme
>>41926522
Someone help me make a "template" to be posted everytime in the OP.
Ideas for what it could include:
*Social media links
*Recent videos
*Expo-dates where he's likely/has planned to make an appearance
*General Rich Piana news
*Link to his products
*Special offers/discounts/discount-codes
Where is he now after his "call my ex a nigger-lover" over a picture with Magic Johnson?
I cant imagine anyone coming back from that type of screwup.
brehs, i had my first pro kickboxing match the other night. lost, and got injured on top of that.
my left ribs are bruised, with one of them kind of sticking out and causing severe pain, left of the stomach. getting up, sitting and laying down, pretty much all kinds of movements are very painful. however, the area has not turned blue.
what worries me more is the fact that my whole torso area is swollen as fuck and it's like i've gotten fat in the span of 2 days. more importantly, my feet, calves and ankles are very swollen. no pain though, but it's like i have fat person's feet.
i don't even look like a normal person at this point - my arms, shoulders, back and quads are ripped, but torso, calves and feet look like those of a fat person.
i fear some internal organ is malfunctioning, but i'll only be able to go to the doctor tomorrow since it's Sunday.
could the spleen be injured?
>>41926285
Something about that leg looks really unnatural. Is this a gag?
>>41926285
Nigger why did you fall for the martial arts meme? All the fags that do them competitive are a wreck of injuries.
>>41926334
yea okay bruh, i've learned my lesson. any idea as to my injury though?
Fap before or after hitting the gym?
>>41926160
after
>>41926160
Before and after

Before you go to bed, fapping demotivated you.
Are natural anabolics a meme? I'd like to try some natural test/hgh booster, is it just a waste of money?
>>41925791
>is it just a waste of money?
If it's legal, it's a waste of money.
Look for products with Laxogenin. The boost is small so don't expect anything drastic. The only thing that really matters is pricing because supplements aren't cheap.
>>41925791
If it works it's most likely not natural or legal. Most "natural" test boosters aren't worth shit any ways. A little zinc and so deer antler extract and milk thistle isn't going to do shit.
Is it possible to lose weight through a keto diet, while making gains through weight training?
Not really.
But making gains while losing weight isn't really possible with any diet unless you are a complete beginner or on steroids.
Keto is a great way to drop fat for people who struggle with keeping their appetite at bay.
But it isn't some magical super health diet like a lot of ketards seem to think.
They suddenly find a way to shrink their fat ass easily and assume that losing fat and being healthy are exactly the same thing so they find ways to justify sugar being the devil. Don't be like that.
But yes, keto is great for losing fat if you find it hard to keep carb cravings away. You will feel shitty for the first 3-7 days as your body gets used to it too. You will also drop 5-10lbs in the first week because your glycogen stores get depleted hardcore.
>>41925658
It's perfect for losing weight with specific conditions. But for the average joe it's no better for weight loss than a properly managed diet. I started trying it recently because my gf has pcos and is terrible with managing cravings. First week I felt like absolute shit and she felt amazing.
>>41925684
I'm a complete beginner, my idea was to drop my body fat to when I'm comfortable, then maintain that body fat while making gains. Would this work? Thanks man :)

Most underrated lift?
don't see dips in too many routines here and they are great for chest and tris
>>41925479
do americans seriously do this?
OHP - I rarely see anyone in my gym ever doing it.
Has anybody tried Rich Piana's 5150?

Unironically my favorite pre wokout. I was using shatter black onyx before. I need to get more, ive been drinking quad shots before the gym recently in its place. I'd recommend it, and anyone ive shared with loved it.

Been dicking around maxing out squats/push-ups, etc. a couple times a week for awhile now, and I want to finally get serious.
I have two questions:
1. Can calisthenics get you as jacked as this statue?
2. How do you structure a calisthenics routine? Does anyone have an example?
bamp
Calisthenics won't get you anywhere close to that. If you want to look like that take steroids.
