Right, fake plates

Forgot to mention I benched today and managed about 45 without the olympic bar. That's shit I guess?

>>41706607
That means about 90 I guess? It was one of those big ass long bars

Depends on your bodyweight and what sport you want to do. It's shit if you're 300 lbs and want to be a powerlifter, yes.

Rule of thumb is to aim for 1.5xbodyweight in bench for heavy athletics like shot put or javelin, etc. Martial artists on the olympic level like wrestlers and judoka usually can bench 1.3xbodyweight.

You can look this shit up on google scholar, there are studies on the physiological characteristics of elite athletes.

eggs and rice is fucking delicious its an italian dish basically boil rice then once rice is ready drain some water add salt and egg cheese done

>>41706475
My favorite way to prepare eggs for a stirfry is to cook a very thin layer of egg all the way through (without touching, like an omelet) and cutting it into pieces so you have large flat pieces of egg, set them aside, then add them at the end to your stirfry so they don't get destroyed while you're cooking everything else

>>Only 120 grams of protein a day?! That isn't enough!
You're probably familiar with the rule of 1 gram of protein per lb of body weight (or 2.2 grams of protein per kg of body weight).
But how much protein do we really need?

According to the Food and Nutrition Board of the Institute of Medicine, National Academies of Science
Located in the following report:
"Dietary Reference Intakes for Energy, Carbohydrate, Fiber, Fat, Fatty Acids, Cholesterol, Protein, and Amino Acids (2002/2005)"

The Estimated Average Requirements for both adult men and women (aged 19-50) is:
0.66 grams of protein / per kg of body weight / per day.
https://www.nap.edu/read/10490/chapter/12#644

The Recommended Daily Requirements for both adult men and women (aged 19-50) is:
0.88 grams of protein / per kg of body weight / per day.
https://www.nap.edu/read/10490/chapter/12#645

Furthermore, it was found that:
"In view of the lack of compelling evidence to the contrary, no additional dietary protein is suggested for healthy adults undertaking resistance or endurance exercise."
https://www.nap.edu/read/10490/chapter/12#661

So for my body weight of 240.8 lbs (109.2 kgs):
my EAR for protein would be: 72.072 grams of protein per day.
and my RDA for protein would be: 96.096 grams of protein per day.

My diet currently gives me about 120 grams of protein per day;
which represents roughly 1.25 grams of protein per kg of body weight per day.
And as I continue to lose weight, my protein intake (relative to my body weight), will increase. (If all other things remain the same.)

>>But wouldn't you like to increase your protein intake anyway?
Yes I would. If only for its own sake. But the truth is, I'm a poorfag.
I have about 475 USD to my name. And this has to last me about 150 days.

I can't increase my protein intake without doing one of two things*:
1. Passing my calorie limit.
2. Passing my budget of 2.50 USD per day.

*(Technically there is a mixture that eliminates both rice, and ground beef from my diet; and replaces it with a beans and chicken diet...That mixture provides about 161 grams of protein a day, while staying under budget/calorie restriction. But I tried that mixture before. It was unpalatable and unsustainable).


>>Who are you?
I'm just an anonymous dude, who gives a shit about health and fitness.
I'm currently on a journey to reach the best fitness of my life.

Here's a video of me from last year when I was ~285 lbs (129.3 kg).
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jclGtuH1468
I don't want your subscriptions, but comments are welcomed. Even dumb/troll/meme comments.

I'm 240.8 lbs (109.2 kgs) right now, with plans to take my body weight to 210 lbs (95.3 kgs) by November 2, 2017.
I'm dedicated, and disciplined.
I'm recording a video every night of my journey, and will release a transformation video when I reach my goal in November.
Hopefully my video will inspire others, or at the very least provide some sort of interest/entertainment value.
We're all gonna make it brahs.

(attached is a graph of my weight loss progress.)

>>Any closing thoughts?
Yeah.

There are a bunch of resources online to help you quantitatively plan your diet.
I think that if you're serious about your health, you should sit down with a blank piece of paper and a pen; and go through all the details.
Simultaneously, you should search online for information regarding the various dietary elements, vitamins, amino acids, and fatty acids involved in a complete diet (Like I have done).

I think it's especially important to look at the costs in developing your plan; as well as the practical issues that come up. No one has limitless money to throw at this problem.
Having a exercise program is important for transforming your body, but as it has been shown before; your diet carries more importance.
So take a moment and analyze your diet. Formulate a plan, and track everything.
Research the nutritional content of the food you're putting into your body; as well as the costs associated with it.

Here are some resources that may help you:
For the nutritional information of the foods you eat, check out:
https://ndb.nal.usda.gov/ndb/search/list
(All other sites/apps like myfitnesspal, calorieking, etc; use this database through the database API. This is the golden source of nutritional information. All foods are sold in the USA with nutritional information labels, those labels are based off the information found here.)

For the recommended intake levels of the essential nutrients you need, check out:
https://ods.od.nih.gov/Health_Information/Dietary_Reference_Intakes.aspx
(While you might shrink away from calculating the essential micronutrients that you need, I provide a source for you anyways. At the very least you should calculate you macronutrients : Calories, Protein, Carbohydrates, and Fat.)

That's it brahs. Good lifts and restful sleep for all you /fit/fags.

What the fuck. Is that bread or dessert?

only 3g fiber so it's unhealthy white bread without much micros
22g protein sounds impressive but it's low quality gluten

Spend less time complaining and more time working towards your goals.

>>41704377
It's probably because you just have an ez-bar with 20lbs per side and aren't lifting actual weight.

I've met some girls involved in figure competition. I used to hang with this girl and her sister would tag along with some of her fitness friends since she also was a fig competitor.
I have to say those are by far the worst kind of women I ever had the chance to meet. Vapid, materialistic, self centered, gold digging, sugar daddy seeking bitches.

Stay the fuck away from those if you actually care about yourself.

i make my own schedule so i have time for the lifts but not that much money for great meal plan

For reps, yes.

It's considered "meh, not bad" depending on your height and weight.

>>41694061
This. Only a 7plate deadlift is respectable here on /fit/ where according to polls the vast majority cannot bench 225.

How much do you weigh and your height?

I hit this score after 4 months of a bro split, i think you should seriously considering being more serious about diet and your training. I always go till failure on every exercise, If i aint burning i aint working. Some people criticised me on my routine as it apparently had too much, but its given these results to me in 4 months, i weight 75kg btw

>Splits may be sub-optimal on paper but I’d say they are more optimal if what’s you enjoy
Abso-fucking-lutely

All that "natties need frequency bro! Hit everything 3x a week with low volume!" advice is garbage for mass/aesthetics. If your main goal is muscle growth, hit it with high volume twice a week.

You can (and should) start with your heavy 3x5 bench press, but if you want a big chest then do some incline or cable flyes afterwards

>>41707368
I've literally never followed a routine before because I learned how to lift properly at a young age. I just do chest/tri, back/bi, and leg. I do abs and calves everyday. Is that what a brosplit is?
