How do I achieve turbo calves?
>>41692247
roids
I got done skipping rope for about 10min, 45min ago and my calves still feel it. So, try that.
>>41692247
Is calves a fetish? Because a lot of guys ask about this and I consider over proportioned calves disgusting like pic related.
Even worse in case of women.
>Decreases recovery time
>Cheap as chips
>Increases muscle volume and appearance of fullness without appearing bloated
>Increases raw strength
>Increases endurance meaning more reps per set
>increases cognitive function
>b-b-but one flawed study on a single football said it increases DHT despite being a completely non-hormonal substance.
Why aren't you supplementing creatine? It's basically a must for people who lift weights.

My goal of to be able to do a respectable number of single arm chin-ups (like 5 reps) without needing to hold my forearms. I'm 5"10 (king manlet), 170lbs like 12% bf.
What's the best way of getting there? I figured weighted chins. Currently doing 3 sets of weighted chin-ups twice a week at the beginning of my upper workouts.
I can do like 6-7 reps with good form with a 20KG plate (44lb plate), 3 rest with 1.5 plates and only 1 strict rep with 2 plates.
Anyone able to do these got anytips?

From my experience it has very little to do with regular chinup strength.
How many one arm chinups can you do? I'm guessing 0.
I rarely practise them and I can usually do 2 of them with my right arm.
But I also am able to do 40kg weighted chinups for more than 10 reps.
Weighted chins are food but a peogression will help a lot, just ro get stronger at the form. Things like uneven chinups or negatives of the one arm. 4chan hat way you can more gradually move to obe arm rather than cutting one arm out all at once.
>>41691988
Forgot to actually give you some advice on that post.
do one arm chinup negatives after your regular workouts, or even at home if you have a pullup bar, but don't kill yourself doing this.
do more than 3 sets of chinups, or just do 1-3 sets but do them everyday of the week for like 2 months.
I felt the greatest gains on chinup from doing rest pause bodyweight work, it increased my WEIGHTED chinup strength and also bodyweight max rep endurance.
who else /too anxious to go to the gym so works out home/ here?
I do squats and deadlifts at home.
The squat racks and deadlift platform are always being used at my gym and I'm too dyel to participate
>>41691831
Everyone's scared to go to the gym at first, then they go once and realize that it's not scary at all.
Just fucking man up and go one time, I guarantee you won't be scared anymore, and you won't feel intimidated by anyone, or anything like that. No one will care that you're at the gym as long as you don't bother them.

I don't get the hype with all these supplements.
Why do some pick protein powders/gainers over real food?
The supplement industry has been having a massive growth these past years.
My theory is that beginners buy supplements because they think that it is an easy route to what they want to achieve, but all they do is spending insane amounts of money on """crap""".
It was uncommon to do bodybuilding 10-15 years ago, at least from my experience, and I think that supplement companies convince beginners who are new to the sport that supplements > real food.
I bought all kinds of shit when I first started but now my diet is 100% real food that I prepare for a week at a time.
Pros with real food:
>real food
>better shits
>know exactly what i put into my body
>cook for 2-3 hours on sunday and have food for 7 days
Cons with real food:
>somewhat more expensive protein compared to protein powder
>comments on "its not healthy to eat the same food all the time *glugs down processed gainer with 13 unknown ingredients, for 30 days in a row* "
>its easier to chug a protein shake/gainer than to sit down and eat a meal for 5-10 min
Pros with protein powder:
>cheap
>lots of alternatives
>easy to drink
Cons with protein powder:
>the shits
>unknown ingredients
>processed
>what are vitamins and minerals?
What supplements do you take? Do you agree with me? Why/why not?
I only take pre-workout and omega-3 as my supplements.
welp, people generally are looking either for a shortcut, or the mysterious product that will make them grow like people on roids
folks have completely warped expectations of what a natural can do and because they have been lied to they think that their lack of gains is because their protein powder doesnt have the frogtech™ protein blend

>he supplement industry has been having a massive growth these past years.
Fitness people on instagram that pose with a supplement on each photo.
I use powder and a few Supplements. But I prefere real food. It's mostly to trick myself into taking Workout more serious. When I have to get up at 6 in the morning i like to have my rituals and drink my shake on the way to the gym. Makes me feel ready. Vitamin D and Zinc are not a meme though.

It's goat. People just hate it to validate themselves because crossfit includes an endurance aspect these for-the-grils meatheads failed.
>b-b-but that ONE webm of someone with bad form
Kekekek. I could show you TEN regular lifters with worst form for every poor example you post. Crossfitters with poor form are an argument against poor form not crossfit.
Overall fitness is not just lifting weights.

Hi /fit/
Been doing cardio for 3 months, gym for 1, have lost 8kg so far
Pretty happy with the weight loss but I've noticed I've got pretty big man tits compared to the fatties on here
Seen a few people mentioning gyno and I'm starting to get worried that I might have it
My whole life I've noticed I've had bigger tits, even when I was 10-15kg lighter than I am now
Pls help is there something wrong with me
I dont think so, OP
But don't forget to worry about your pecks because you do kind of have bitch tits from being so phat
gyno isn't bigger tits in general, gyno just makes them perky
just keep losing weight

Redpill me on kefir. I like to drink it from time to time, should i continue doing so?
Kalinka-malinka malinka moya
>>41690963
>>41690986
But seriously, irregardless of answers, continue drinking it, it's the drink of the gods.
>>41690996
Also, Kalinka is the worst kefir I've seen in Germany, any other brand has a better taste.
I think it's unfair that black skin looks so good on muscles. I can get fit as fuck but I need to look tan or bronzed and shit to look good.
>>41690715
White master race can always tan but niggers are black for life.
