/fit/ A buddy of mine is being brainwashed by this guy who claims to be a "nutritionist" and is feeding him all kinds of bullshit, telling him to stop eating meat and essentially become a vegan. How do I save him? I don't want him to end up with anemia and b12 deficiences because of bad advice.
>>41305083
Tell him to take a gander at the average vegan.
>>41305097
I tried to explain to him about canine teeth and how our digestive enzymes evolved due to meat consumption and he won't listen to me. Is he a lost cause at this point?
>>41305166
Yeah. Just let him join the emaciated hordes you see on the streets these days.
Would you rather be weak but look strong
or be strong but look weak?
>>41304953
How strong are we talking?
>>41304953
The later
>>41304953
90 percent of fights and conflicts are mind based. The other 10 percent is the physical part. If you flaunt your shit enough, 99 percent of people won't fuck with you. I'd rather be weak but look strong.
Can anyone tell me how to improve on my pullup reps. I can currently do 5 good ones before struggling. My goal is to be able to do at least 15 good ones. What machines can do I do and or what regiment can I follow to reach my goal.
would pic related help???
>>41304905
>would a pull up bar help me do pull ups
Sure anon, sure.
>>41304905
do assisted pull ups with counterweight, or use a chair
>>41304905
The best way to be able to do more pullups is just doing more pullups.
When you are doing a set, for you as you said it is five, with ACTUAL GOOD form, not these cucks that gymnastic' their way up.
but from dead hang, set the shoulders all the way back (contracting scapula), pull without ANY momentum up to the point as high as you can go WITHOUT letting your shoulders fall back forward (you see this alot, as people get to a point, and let their shoulders roll back forward, just in order get that last bit of distance in the movement, making a sort of a 7 shape movement)
then with the same control, STILL keeping the shoulders back, lower back down to dead hang
when you have exhausted as many as you can do with that form, then when u get to the top of the last one, just stay there at the highest point, really focusing on pulling you shoulders back and contracting your lats even more, while eventually the failure of the muscle will naturally lower you down again
>should i text my ex girlfriend?
she was legit the best, loved me more than anything and was cool as fuck but i cheated on her and she found out
i deserve every bit of pain that i got and i know she deserves better but its been 2 months and i cant stop thinking of her, should i hit her up or just fuck off
wat do /fit/
>pic related
wish i had an attitude like guts
>>41304839
If you think she can forgive you go for it
But life is hard as fuck dude
>>41304839
>i cheated
The only thing you need to send is a bullet in your brain
>>41304839
If you want to get back with her and actually have a chance of it working, you gotta give her a free cheat.
There will be an undercurrent of suspicious resentment otherwise that would ultimately ruin the relationship, assuming you can even salvage it at all.
>girls under 20 are fucking retarded children
>girls over 20 are used up disgusting arrogant hags
i think you'll find most women are retarded
There are good girls in all age groups but you probably dont deserve them

>deserve
This is a really autistic way of viewing relationships
How long should it take for a 200lb male to reach 1/2/3/4?
I am at 115lbs/200lbs/250lbs/315lbs after 2 months.
>>41304602
It depends. I hit a 2plate bench in about a year, and a 3plate bench in 3 years when I was a teenager. However, I was doing a 3 day brosplit and didn't do much strength training.

thats great op who is this semen demon?

What's this about whey and protein shit please explain and recommend me what to buy. Thank you
>>41304593
>myprotein.com
Protein is what your muscles use to recover. And most average diets don't give you enough.
(t. read the fucking sticky)
You need a certain amount for your muscles to not atrophy and so that your recovery is faster.
Your muscles will thank you in the long run.
>>41304593
here's the unedited, superior version.
>>41304593
It's basically pointless if you have enough meat, eggs, and milk in your diet.
I've seen people with chad facial structures that are 5 feet 9 inches like the guy on the left in the pic. So, is being a manlet really that bad? I'm 5 8 and I have no problem with girls. Being in the 5 6 to 5 10 range isn't really that bad. Like overall, you just need decent facial aesthetics, a good muscular body and decent social skills to get you laid with prime women.
But if you are 5 3 or below or a dwarf, then you're fucked.
I'm interested to hear your reponses.
go lift and take your wheykey shakey and take the memes with a grain of salt.
>>41304588
How did you get out of the manlet pit?
>>41304588
It's just a meme most of /fit/ are manlets.

Neanderthals were STRONG AS FUCK. Supposedly, based on evidence from their skeletons, even their women were on par with world class arm wrestlers. But they were socially autistic

I got a stupid question, that was propably asked a thousands of times here. How bas is drinking for your gains?
My mate told me that for 4 days after being drunk its absolutely pontless to work out, cos your body won't build any muscles. Is there any thruth in that? Can I say get drunk every saturday and work out all week and have my gains? I know that alcohol is just empty calories, but is it actually worse than that or are others theories just bullshit?
Workouts the day after suck regardless of any reduction in recovery or hormones. That is enough to hurt you. Or maybe I'm just too old at 26, but I always feel weaker after a night of drinking.
Liquor stops protein absorption. Not for 4 fucking days, but till it's out of your system.
Drinking every Saturday and working out 3-4 times during the week days wont really be a huge impact on your gains. That being said, it certainly wont help, and don't drink before a workout day.
>>41304109
>>41304138
I see now you'd only drink Saturday. If you can keep it to that only that, then the % of "gains" you'd lose is likely approaching insignificant assuming it's not an insane amount of alcohol every Saturday. Binge drinking once a week is still binge drinking, but I've done it this way and really don't see many problems as long as my diet is in check otherwise.
Doesn't happen often, but every few months I start getting blinding headaches as soon as I start lifting. Pain fades after an hour, but comes back as soon as I start exerting. This can last for a few days, which is some unacceptable bullshit.
Any tips on this, and how to avoid it?
Exertion headaches aka tension headaches. Can be caused by tightness in traps or a small muscle that leads down the front of your neck. Honestly only fix is to stretch, take an ibuprofin, and lessen the weight while making a conscious effort to focus on breathing during reps.
I had this BAD when i started lifting, went to the doctor and everything. Most likely its from a weak muscle when youre doing heavier compounds, usually in the traps/neck or upper back. Just gotta push through and keep lifting while keeping good form. It's gone for me so you can make it brah.
