Have you bros tried a fucking starfruit yet? bought one at kroger because it looked cool. just tried it and i can say its my favorite fruit now. Super low calories with high macronutrients this motherfucker is gold
Please describe the taste as best as possible in under 10 words
I didn't know it was real. I thought it was just a cash cow in Stardew Valley

very unique taste but its like a sweet sourness. you have to try it man
What's the cheapest yet best heart rate monitor to monitor myself while jogging so I stay in the fat-burning zone?
Not trying to spend a ton of money if there's a cheap alternative
I suggest you read up on fitness in general because you clearly don't know anything about it
>monitor myself while jogging so I stay in the fat-burning zone
"fat burning zone" is not a thing.
What you are looking for is your TDEE and how much calories you consum per day. If you consum less than your TDEE you lose weight.
You can't track this with a "cheap heart rate monitor"...
MiBand 2,its cheap and nice.
Burnt my thumb on a lighter ~1 week ago, and it caused a welt/callous thing on my thumb.
Pinched the callous between two plates today at the gym and it tore off, taking some of my thumb with it.
It doesnt bleed or hurt or anything - do you think I can just leave it alone or should I do something?
>>40976807
sterilize it and leave it be
you'll be fine just keep it dry
Keep it clean, watch out for redness, pain, swelling, puss.
Let it heal.
Use other hand for hitchhiking.
can someone please give me a good stretching routine? i'm inflexible as fuck

>that pic
Kinda relevant to a newbie question I have
Gonna go to the gym in a few hours, is it okay to have a wank now or will I become too low test?
>>40976722
I feel very lethargic after jerking off which is why I don't do it.
Nothing wrong with it though if you don't have same problem.
Newfag here
Is the thing in the picture the same as a bent over barbell row?
I intend to use it in the 5x5 stronglifts program
Also how.much weight is it without any plates on it? 20kg?
>>40976553
nah its a tbar row, you should stick with the regular barbell row. dont question it and just do it.
Pretty much, i think its like 25kg
>>40976584
>>40976553
Huh, just saw this at my gym and was wondering what it was.
Hi /fit/
/lit/ here, I remember good /fitlit/ days, and I want to start lifting, but sadly I am leaving my home pretty soon so signing into gym is not good idea.
What exercise works the same as lifting and is not cardio.
Sorry for meme thread, but you can ask me for book recommendations, love you guys.
>>40976497
Pullups, bicycle kicks, and pushups. Get a membership asap
>>40976497
are you moving into a new house or is it more like uni accommodation? if its the former, you could set up a home gym
how long until you move? most gyms have day/week/month passes
>>40976552
Probably uni or other city, but not sure about this shit, and probably something like 4 months tops.
Gyms in my country have fucking long ass passes.
How do I sleep better?
On a bed.
On the floor.

Everybody walk the dinosaur
So we all know sleep is a major factor in recovery, and getting in 8 hours of solid Zs is a base requirement for gains. But here comes my question: How does /fit/ sleep? I find myself questioning my sleep position at sperg levels I didn't think possible, I'll explain:
on my back
>pro: good to fix back/shoulder problems and APT, breddy comfy
>con: too hard or high pillow can bring neck problems, increased risk of sleep breathing problems, a bitch to actually fall asleep in
on my side (feet pulled in, "embryo")
>pro: even comfier, easy to fall asleep in, stable enough not to turn onto stomach in my sleep
>con: worry about the shoulder I sleep on getting problems, worry about digestion momscience (depending on which side), worry about flexing knees for 8 hours shortening my hamstrings
on my side (feet stretched out)
>pro: hamstring problem from above fixed
>con: all others of the legs pulled in variant, plus less stable so chance of turning on stomach while asleep
on my stomach
>pro: absolutely uber-comfy
>con: furthers APT by disgraceful amounts, gives digestion problems, neck strain from overextending it all night, fucks with REM sleep in some people, all around pretty subhuman way to sleep
I know I worry too much about this, but there really seems to be no sleep position I can safely trust in not damaging me long-term. Help me fix my sleep autism pls
pic unrelated and just for attention
>>40976430
holy shit I've never thought about this so extensively, been sleeping on my back for all my life out of habit, but I DO have sleep apnoe problems. fuck you for making me rethink stuff I didn't worry much about before, fuck.
eh, cannot contribute much to the topic but have a bump m8
>>40976536
>talking to yourself
*cringe*
>>40976836
kek
foolproof way to avoid the shameful archived/pruned without replies feel
Is this true /fit/ or am I being meme'd?
>>40976417
no u dumbfuck u need isolations and compounds unless ur a complete noob beginner which it sounds like u are
>>40976417
Crunches are pleb tier and do nothing
>>40976417
huh half truth, compund exercises DO work the core. But if u really want to show nice abs you need to do many ab exercises (isolation).
I gained 10kg/22lbs last year mainly because my job was really time-consuming so I didn't have time for working out or eating anything but fast food.
>I'm 1.9m/6.2ft tall and currently 90kg/198lbs.
I want to lose all of this 10kg/22lbs or more ASAP. I need extreme but effective solutions.
How could i possibly lose this much weight within weeks?
Please help me /fit!!
>>40976367
>How could i possibly lose this much weight within weeks?
you can't. just end it.
also
>read the fucking sticky
Unfortunately there's nothing new in the sticky. Just the usual things you can find literally everywhere.
>>40976367
just stop eating so much food. even if u can only get fast food get less of it. and if ur hungry then it means ur losing weight so being hungry is good
Why do Asians get big so easily?
>>40976349
They convert what they eat to muscle more effectively.
>>40976349
They're all manlets
Because they're short
All bullshit aside, do you like Connor McGregor has or does take steroids at some point in his career?
Yes.
>>40976335
Dont they suffer the consequences of quitting though? Like low test production and all that wack bullshit associated with after roiding?
>world champion
>guys do u think he is using performance enhancing drugs???
Man you must be 16 or retarded
Is this PPL a meme? Doesn't feel like I'm making much progression and people talk a lot of shit about PPL...
shameless self bump
>>40976278
drop dead
also
what stage are you at?
For a beginner its a meme what are your lifts?
>>40976278
yeh ppl is bad man its pretty much a brosplit with slightly higher frequency, not optimal for naturals. get on an upper lower or full body program(preferred) for the best results.
Hey /fit/,
Is "The Golden One" natty?
Yes.
>>40976219
You dare question the authenticity of the Glorious Lion of Optimal Wisdom and Gains?
How heretical.
Why is there nothing that works better than this?
Stiff legged deadlifts destroy my ass, no homo
>>40976220
deadlifts look like such a stupid exercise, you're destroying your knees, using your ARMS all just to exercise your lower back?
most expensive operation ever
