Does anyone else feel like they're getting more confused the more fitness theory they read? I read the actual scientific articles about hypertrophy and strength training, but there's just so many possible variations you can do on everything.
>work out every day, or every other day
>let each muscle group rest for 24-48 h
>for compound lifts ("bigger muscles"), you may need to rest them +72h
>do deadlifts only once a week, or three times a week
>do reps until volitional failure, or technical failure
>reps vs sets vs load vs volume
>volume is all that matters, given enough load
>do linear progression even though exponential processes are much more common in biological systems
>do deloading so and so often
>a whole week of full-body recovery is great to incorporate
>mixing grip every session is good
>completely kill one muscle group with several exercises targeting it during one session, or break it down using different exercises across sessions
Maybe I should just lift instead and let my scale, measuring tape, and Excel be the judge

you could do all that....or you could be black and be fucking ripped and swole as fuck. But sadly you aren't lol. pathetic white men will never learn. you can't compare to superior black men, not even in your wildest dreams. it's 2017 sweetie, it's time to wake up :)

Based Clarence deadlifts 330kg with hook grip.
What can I do to get ridiculously high numbers with hook grip without feeling like my thumbs are going to break in two?

OK, I know people like to laugh at Planet Fatness, but is it really that terrible? I work out at home, but I'm going to be traveling for a couple of weeks at least and I'm looking into making use of this inexpensive gym. I'm a bit wary of some of their language, such as "judgment free locations" and pic related (bullying is a feature, not a bug). So give me the dirt. Can I just go lift some weights for next to nothing or am I going to be harassed for being a fucking white male 6'2 master race around a bunch of angry manlets and hamplanets?

This would be really cool if it was more about boys and girls working out so they have the self-confidence to not let themselves be bullied, but I don't know.

They don't have free weights, nuff said. They are more of a scam than other gyms as they cater exclusively to people who don't want to exercise at all

check out the gyms in your area and weigh the costs. there is a PF thread every fucking day asking the same autistic shit.

Your shins need to be more vertical. Make sure they form a 90 degree angle with your feet. Your ass should stick out more as a result of this. Imagine "opening your taint" at the bottom and closing it at the top by squeezing your glutes. This should correct your lumbar flexion.

You aren't using your lats at all which is why your lower back is rounding like a wet noodle just above your belt.

The following is ripped straight from the GSLP 2nd Ed. book.
>“Why the A/B setup on the press/benchpress, and not on the squat/deadlift”
>The press and bench press both use significantly less muscle mass than do the squat and deadlift. The resulting loads used for the former two lifts are smaller than the latter two, thereby placing less systemic stress on the body and its recovery ability. This allows one to train the two lifts in an alternating fashion each training session without any detrimental effects. Remember, the more opportunities for individual stress/recovery/adaptation (read: strength and muscle gain) cycles, the greater the potential for growth and strength development. We want to keep the frequency high and the load and the volume significant enough to elicit an adaptation, without providing an unnecessary beatdown that forbids us from getting back into that glorious growth cycle with another stimulus within the desired timeframe.
I still don't understand, are the muscles used for squats and deadlifts not strong enough to recover from an alternating workout? How does that make sense? For that matter, if you only do deadlifts 1/week and squats 2/week, won't your squat weight eventually overtake your deadlift weight? How would you reach 1/2/3/4 in relatively equal time if your squat would reach 3pl8 WAY before your deadlift would hit 3pl8, let alone 4pl8, barring excessively frequent deloads on your squat?

No it isn't.
That's some plebbit fags "version". Deadlift is +10lbs per workout. Never trust these retarded infographics that condense and entire book into a braindead photo. It's also completely missing the frequency work, which is the cornerstone of the upper body work on this program.

Completely a personal preference. Some people prefer the feel of a high top for that locked in feeling but others like low tops that offer more free movement. If you have weaker ankles I'd say go high or maybe just boot tape for games

Hello citizens
I was wondering if any of you could explain this to me.
Its now midnight, I had my last meal at 6pm. Around 10pm I felt very low on energy, extremely hungry, and didn't feel alert enough to drive.
I got into bed at 10pm and tried to fall a sleep, it failed. But suddenly about half an hour ago I felt very energetic. So much so that I did a few sets of push ups and sit ups. I even feel like running now but its too late.
Any explanation for this?
Thanks and enjoy the pic of the babe with a nice ass

Thanks for the reply anon, it could be that because I have slight gyno as well. Once I finish my cut if the gyno is still there I'm gonna get the doc to test my blood.

Any one of you guys don't count your calories and grams of protein fat carbs?
I only eat home cook meals from my wife so I can't count and be accurate.
I have been going to gym since I was a teenager so I don't know if counting calories will make a big difference.
What do you think guys?

Calories in vs calories out is mostly a myth, anyway.
>>
I counted calories for like a week just to have a notion of how much I eat. The way I proceed is quite simplistic but effective if your diet doesn't vary too much from day to day.
on a bulk:
Are you gaining weight? No? Then eat more
on a cut:
Are you losing weight? No? Then eat less.

>>41664576
Depends on your goals. Generally not.
