I want to start lifting. I picked GSLP plus arms as a program to begin with.
I don't want to become big, my ultimate goal would be something like ottermode. So I don't know if I should bulk, cut or eat at maintenance. Please help.
I'm 5'9" and 158lbs

Explain.
/fit/ gurus,
Feeback me on my 5 month progress, almost 10 kg +
>>41749206
With those child bearing hips you should just stop lifting and start transitioning
>>41749206
nothing changed, you need to eat less and train harder.
>>41749206
you look much better, good job
Is 1x5 deadlifts really enough?
>>41749163
It can be. I like deadlifts though, and will often do 5x3.
>>41749173
5x3 or 3x5?
5 sets 3 reps?
>>41749163
Only if you do low bar squat, or a similar movement for deadlift for volum. It will still work without, but not as good!
Alright /fit/ I have had it. I have had the last fucking straw.
I have been doing fasting every other day for 2 fucking months. i have just found out that my mother has been spiking the bottled water in my house with sugar.
She was concerned about my fasting, so every time she would buy a new case of bottled water, she open them all and pour in a spoon full of sugar.
I noticed this today when there was fucking sugar all over my hands after having my morning beverage.
Fucking cunt. This is why I failed in my life. Because of normies. I already spent the afternoon screaming at her but she doesnt fucking get it.
I wasted two months of my life downing sugared water on my fast days... I need to get my blood checked now for diabeates.
How do I make normies understand the health benefits from fasting??
>>41749084
Kill the mom the way she kills your progress
kek. i can see this being true, actually – when i started fasting and my mum saw me taking some salt, she asked if i would be taking sugar too.
i don't think you're at any risk for diabetes. it takes a lot longer than two months.
>>41749084
holy shit what a fucking stupid bitch
Which one is better?
>>41749078
neither. deadstop dumbbell rows or pendlay rows are the only ones you should be doing.

>>41749081

>tfw it's a fasting day
>>41749003
I usually spend them by going for long walks and do shopping.
>>41749003
Wh..why would you fast on a weekend? It's so much easier during any weekday.
>>41749003
ramadan hitting you hard nigga?
Are lifting shoes necessary for high bar squats?
>>41749001
>Necessary: no
>Optimal: yes
The heel is only for increasing ankle mobility, but you can always stretch the shit out of it.
>>41749262
this, desu famalam.
i had knee pain squatting over 400 barefoot, but then i got some of the shoes in OP and the knee pain just disappeared. highly recommend
>>41749001
jesus that is one ugly shoe
How to build a big chest without bench press? With as little stress on shoulders as possible
>>41748985
MOMMY I WANT MILK
>>41748985
>With as little stress on shoulders as possible
That leaves out every pressing exercise
Good thing that chin ups work the chest, go do those. Obviously they dont work it insanely but if you do weighted chin ups with half your bodyweight you'll have a decent chest
Tell me about your uses and experiences with apple cider vinegar
biggest meme out there
I normally just have a sip of it with meals. Can't say I've noticed any benefits, but the science is there.

Help me understand the animosity that many of you seem to have toward those of us who choose to use gear. I browse through this board from time to time, and I'm always a bit surprised at how upset many people seem to get over the use of steroids. It's almost like an obsession, to the point where guys are calling people out for supposed roiding the moment they show any progress toward their fitness goals. I'm just amazed by how outraged people can get over the choices of others that literally do not affect them in any way.
So, is it a moral issue? Do you feel like gear users are cheaters who make their gains "the easy way," without having to put in any effort? Is it a jealousy issue? Are you upset because guys on gear make bigger, faster gains than natty guys do? Is it a self-loathing thing, where you want to use gear yourself, but you're too afraid to try it, so you get upset at those who have taken the plunge? Do you feel like guys who are juiced up are ruining their health, and you look down on them for making what you consider to be a poor/stupid decision? Help me understand, because I just can't wrap my head around why this issue evokes such an emotional response from people when it really has nothing to do with them. If you're natty and happy with your decision to be natty, then why do you care if that guy across from you in the gym is roiding? I'm on gear, but even when I was natty, I didn't have any ill will toward people who ran AAS. Likewise, now that I'm roiding, I don't look down on people who choose to stay natty. Can't we all just get along?
I think it is you who cares senpai
>>41748739
I think it's maybe a touch of jealousy behind it all. I have friends on gear. I have friends who are natty. I have friends who don't even lift or exercise at all.
The anonymity kind of juices up people's hate triggers. I've found that in the real world regular people don't care nearly as much.
>>41748760
I'm just curious. At the end of the day, I couldn't care less whether the guy next to me is geared up or not. That's their choice.
>>41748785
I definitely agree with you on the whole anonymity thing. People just seem to be angrier on anonymous boards where they don't have any fear of repercussion.

THE FUCKING THICCEST OATMEAL EVAR .
Try doing oatmeal with 8x as much water , it'll never be thicc enough , but if you mix that shit up you reach the sky and can overload the oats with water , It's so fucking creamy .
>>41748066
Btw it won't be like oatmeal at all , it will be a thicc , creamy & sticky paste that will will you up way more than oatmeal .
With 100g of oats I ended up with almost 1 Kg of food . ( offcourse most of it is water but since the fiber are water soluble the thing stay for a long period of time in your belly . )

>Add milk.
>Add sugar.
>Stir then microwave.
All you could ever need, whey optional.

wtf
>wanting to get anywhere
>not cycling
>mfw
I cycle everywhere, but since people are dicks I use city bikes instead of my beautiful bike unless I can store it inside.
Problem is those are medium bikes and thus too small for me (192cm) and riding small bikes all the times plus squatting three times a week and DLing once a week gave me quadriceps tendinitis.
I still bike, but I can't squat for now.
is this what people mean when they say they are "on a cycle"? is this how you get shredded?
>>41748219
yes
I'm a 6'1, 125lbs man who wants to take up Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. But I don't want to be embarrassed by being physically dominated by women.
Could this happen? I'm not sure if I'm stronger than the average woman. I don't lift and one time was really struggling to carry 30kg around. I doubt I can lift much higher than that. Would women in BJJ beat me?
Pic not related in the slightest.

You need to eat some food dude. That's crazy underweight.
Who cares? The likelihood is that they already can. And you are okay with that, as long as your precious ego doesn't get a bruising. If you ever want that to change, then you need to take the first step, and start moving forward.
Pic related is not me but I've got something similiar with red spots around it. I've tried several acne cures on it and I'm fairly healthy but it doesn't go away. What do?
>>41748004
Have you tried not being indian?
That's acne.
wash your fucking face and stop eating so much grease you pig
