does hand size affects your performance in lifting?
probably not as much as grip strength
my hands are a little less than 5 inches long from wrist to tip of middle finger
holding the bar was a lot more difficult at first than it is now and i think that's due to an increase in strength rather than hand size
that being said, perhaps someone with larger hands could hold the bar better than i could just based on that variable. i dunno
>big palms short fingers
>wristlet
>tall
So far deadlifting is hard because shit grip strength
Squatting is easy as fuck and a joke
OHP is kinda easy - normal
Bench is hard with heavyweights but i have no trouble with volume bench days at all

If it translates directly into big wrist size, then quite a bit. If your wrists are still small, then you're still fucked.
How would /fit/ fare in this situation?
I would have tackled that paki shit the moment he stopped to turn the corner and crushed his head

what's the best bodytype?
Why are all these cucks just letting her assault them?
>>41912744
ottermode is the best for pulling preteen girls. Athletic is the best well rounded for everything else
>>41912797
I'm guessing you mean teenage girls... otherwise I'm finna report this to the FBI.
Does do swimming exercises help with anything? I feel like it does but dont know what it helps in the end.
swimming is a bullshit scam, it does nothing and won't give you any gains
>>41909172
Not enough
Burning calories, burning muscle and fat.
Other is gonna be archived in a bit.
>tfw you've overthought fat loss so much you forgot everything about it
1. Does your body use fat as fuel after carbs are depleted or what?
2. Is low fat/high protein the best way to bulk for lean muscle gain? Should carbs be high/moderate/low?
why the fuck do people always comment
"You don't need to lose weight" when you mention you're on a diet?
Like jesus I know I'm not obese but does it really hurt that much to say "Good luck!" or "Oh, okay". It's always some bullshit to try and make me feel adequate when I want to look the best I possibly can.
How to deal with being mildly unattractive. I'm not ugly, but just didn't come out right. I'm healthy and fairly fit already.
>>41910146
Crabs in a bucket. You being dedicated to something reminds others that they are failing to be their best self.
Does mewing work?
No muscles, no clothes, no surgery, nothing will give you those genes and that aesthetic.

Shit, Gandy's fit is fucking lit. Any idea what he's wearing.

Is running as bad as they say on the knees?

would running help me have a single "healthy" bowel movement a day?

probably if youre very heavy and sedentary
What do you faggots think about home gyms?
You seem to be able to find some decent equipment around garage sales, flea markets, and on craigslist from unmotivated fucks who buy weights or a home gym and barely use it and want to get rid of it cause it takes up too much space.
I'm thinking about clearing a room and turning it into a gym, which would cut out memberships and driving and having to wait on people who are using equipment (also wouldn't have to lay in someone else's back sweat).
The only more expensive things seem to be treadmills and I don't really need one, I'd have the whole space to myself and would only need to share with the gf. Thoughts? Should I invest?
Bad idea for beginners because you will probably give up within a few years.
Go to a gym first. Stop being a beta faggot.
>>41923150
I already go to the gym when I have time
bump
I wont be able to use my uni's gym forever, I'm gonna grad soon. I'm thinking once I have the bank I should just buy equipment, I can prob find everything me and the gf want/need. Worth the money or just a meme?

What are the best workouts for a 5'3" 110 lb girl to get toned
(better ass better legs better belly thigh gap maybe?)
Start baiting.
>>41922698
Start low quality reps 3x3
Then after a month switch to high quality reps 5x5
fuk of u fat slt ree
Yesterday, I took my younger bro (15) to the gym to get him. After a light warmup, I began teaching him how to dumbbell press.
Now, he's a much lighter build than me and when I had started out at 15, I could easily bench with 20 kg dumbells.
However, when he started, he could barely press 7.5 kg without shaking his arms about excessively. I decided the weight was too heavy and gave him 5 kg. Again, his arms shook wildly.
I then took it down to a 2.5 kg, the lightest weight in the gym. I tried to keep his arms steady but alas, he faltered again, with one arm dropping down below his shoulder.
Finally, I decided that it was the weight that was the problem, so asked him to bench his own hands, without the bar.
I was shocked when yet again, his arms shook and he could not maintain a smooth and controlled motion.
Interestingly, he could bench press 40 kg on the smith machine, for 10 reps over multiple sets. That might not seem a lot, but it contrasts with his inability to bench press 0kg without the machine.
So, what excercises can he carry out to improve his stabiliser muscles? I've seen nothing like it before and am confused as what to do. I don't want this to demoralise him about the gym.
>>41922597
pushups.
>>41922597
tldr:
>took younger brother to gym and he can barely "dumbbell" bench press his own hands, how can he improve his stabiliser muscles?
>>41922606
He doesn't have a problem doing push-ups but does get joint pain after doing them. He does have pectus excavatum, which could be a factor?
>that guy who doesnt rack the barbell after he's done with squats
What else really activates your almonds?
>>41922383

Of course not. But it will highly likely make you feel better and more confident about yourself.

When I move, I can feel my butt jiggle a bit - like pic related. That doesn't mean my ass is out of shape or that it's soft, right? All butts jiggle just slightly, do they not?
http://www.strawpoll.me/13279889
>>41922182
Male or female?
>>41922229
How does my gender matter?
Would you have asked the same question if pic related in OP was of a guy's butt jiggling like that?
>>41922246
It 100% matters you moron. Women carry a higher % of fat especially in there lower bodies.
