Alright /fit/, after about a year of manic depression I've started reading up religiously on eating healthier and lifting plus exercise to not only cure my eternal sadness but also feel good about myself.

I've been lifting for about 2 months now, and I currently am 6"2 at 265 lbs.
I grew up obese, lost a shit ton of weight and then gained it all back after a few years when I lost all desire to care about myself.
So I can't really tell if I'm making any progress or if I'm even at a respectable build. Besides my obvious huge estrogen nipples and fag haircut, what can you guys point out that needs work, and would you recommend I do cardio, or just keep doing my lifting routine.
I usually lift 3 different sets of dumbells in a circuit, 25lbs, then 20 lbs, then 10 lbs (one in each hand). I've seen some techniques but honestly I just do a huge combination of different things that make my arms and chest burn. It's more endurance than heavy weights, so think like curling, then pulling, rows, punches, squats, above the head, etc all in one rep. Basically doing all of this until failure, and then I rest for a minute and move onto the lower weight set, rinse repeat.
I also have an ez curl barbell with 50lbs that I do squats and whatnot with.
Is this a good method to keep on doing?
I've only done it for a month and some so far and I've definitely noticed and felt some gains. But I'm still fat as fuck at least.
What do you y'all think?

Op you're pathetic just keep lifting but at higher weight

You are aware you look like shit, but you need to realise that you will continue to look like shit for a while, as change takes a long time. Keep your before picture, but don't check back for 6ish months, that will be enough to gauge whether or not what you've been doing is working. You seem to be motivated, at least in the short term, but you should focus on changing from being dependent on motivation to simply developing the discipline and habit of sticking to your routing, and doing something every day (even if it's just stretching on rest days).

It doesn't sound like you really have a routine, so do a little more research until you've found one you like, but don't just stop and be sedentary in the meantime, keep exercising. I highly recommend you add in cardio on your off days. C25K, hiit, cycling, swimming, hiking, just do something and minimize your risk of injury (feel free to try running but at your weight it might not be the kindest thing for your knees).

Equally as important is that you eat at a consistent caloric deficit, and do so CONSISTENTLY for the foreseeable future.

TL;DR: read the fucking sticky

I can see the sadness in your eyes. I came here to call you a salami fuck and make other hilarious fat jokes. But damn anon, you don't deserve shitposting. I'm fucking rooting for you man, go out and grab life by the balls and kick ass. I hope to see you back here in a year with stories of conquering not only yourself and pussy, but life itself. God speed anon, god speed.

I know a six pack is revealed from dieting. But do ab exercises help in showing off the core. Or are squats, deadlifts, ohp, pullups, Dips, and farmers walks enough?

Do not fall for the" compound lifts are enough for abs" meme. Doing isolation work will allow you to have abs at a higher body fat and they will look better when cut.

>>41788217
Do you direct ab work for 3 reasons
1: bigger abs look better unless they're the only well developed part of your physique
2. bigger abs=stronger abs=better compound lifts
3. bigger/stronger abs significantly lower the risk of injury while doing anything which loads the spine (eg deadlifts/squats/picking up an atlas stone/bent over rows/ohp/etc.)

>Zach has gained almost 80 pounds, and right under 60% of that is muscle.
>If he wanted to, he could lose the bodyfat that he currently holds, but the last I heard, he was pushing towards 275.
>The conversation went like this a few months ago
>“So what are your goals?” I asked.
>“Other than getting stronger, I dunno. I guess I’ll weigh 275.”
>“Cool.”

>""Cool""

And the comments

>AND FUCK YEA GETTIN STRONG
>FUCK YEA

>Zach”s “definition” looks the same now as it did when he was a skeleton. So the fact that he”s over 240 now = bad ass

Fluoride Jew vs. Xenoestrogen BPA Jew

Is there any downside to tap water if it's filtered from a fridge or will it still contain the fluoride Jew?
15 posts and 2 images submitted.
>>
filtering tap is your best bet. it gets rid of most of the fluoride, and a little of that stuff isn't too bad for you.

anything plastic is to be avoid indefinitely unless you are a women or wannabe women who actually wants more estrogen in their system.

ideally you'd reverse osmosis filter rain water into large sterling silver drums and drink from there in sterling silver cups/flasks.

I say this every water related thread: Invest in a GOOD water filtration system like a reverse osmosis filter, a UV sterilizer, and a pH regulator.

I reduced my waters PPM content from 135PPM to under 5PPM, returned the pH normal and removed the bacteria. Dont get me wrong i live in the capital city of a very 1st world country so the waters fine but i dont want any xenoestrogens or other bullshit designed to turn you into a woman or otherwise

little bit costly but worth it water tastes 100x better now and i feel so much better

>eat for 8 months at a deficit
>gain weight
I am tired people saying "calories in calories out" it is literally not true. I'm starting to wonder why most (((medical professionals))) support it.
23 posts and 2 images submitted.
>>
>>41787377

then you arent counting your food right

or, in another very rare scenario, you have somehow managed to put on muscle while in a deficit, accomplishing the feat of building muscle and losing fat at a rate so fast that you were heavier than when you started.

Second one is a sign of 'roids, so you need to count your food.

The final plausible scenario would be hypothyroidism. Look it up. You should neck yourself if you have it

could it have been muscle mass, or are you 100% fat?

>fat has 9 calories per gram
>muscle mass is 4 calories per gram
>1lbs of fat is therefore calorie equivalent to 2.25lbs of muscle
>it is also a well known fact that during your newbie gains phase it is perfectly possible to burn fat and build muscle simultaneously

Does the above mean that in some cases it is possible to gain weight even when eating at a deficit? Obviously this wouldn't apply to experienced lifters.

....no

>>41787118
You can't gain weight while in a deficit. You can however, theoretically, increase weight but decrease bodyfat percentage. This happens to male teens and maybe the dudes with top genes when they start lifting and eating in a slight surplus.
>>
>>41787656
Don't think you need top genes to increase weight and decrease body fat % with noob gains

Basic training helped me kick some of my nasty habits. Tobacco, porn, alcohol etc. idk if it was a shot they gave us or just the new lifestyle but no one could get a boner for about a month. Then our penises started working again. Every night someone would be jacking it to a picture of their girlfriend's face in the latrine. My erections were noticibly harder, lasted longer and masturbation felt better. Still didn't do it as often as I used to. Overall 10/10 would recommend noporn

The way I deal with it is every time I have a temptation like that and I turn it down, I give myself one point. I can spend one point to allow myself to eat a marshmallow. That way you feel good about turning temptations down cuz you have a reward for it and you can just think about that marshmallow you're getting later
