Aware me on white rice macros, /fit/.
I see that 1 cup of UNCOOKED rice is about 45g carbs, but what about 1 cup cooked? It pretty much doubles in size once it's cooked from absorbing all the water. So would 1 cup of COOKED rice have less carbs than 1 cup uncooked?
And by 1 cup cooked rice, I mean 1 cup of already cooked rice put into a measuring cup. Not 1 cup of uncooked rice made into cooked rice.

>I mean 1 cup of already cooked rice put into a measuring cup. Not 1 cup of uncooked rice made into cooked rice.
You're comparing 45g of uncooked rice to 45g of cooked rice, right?
>>40830079
Not that hard to understand buddy.
Rice, when cooked, takes up a lot more volume than uncooked rice. I'm wondering how many carbs are in 1 cup of cooked (inflated volume) rice vs 1 cup of uncooked rice

I went to the gym today after work as usual. I didn't want to go, but I forced myself to go and not just sit at home being miserable. I thought the gym closed late and so I started off on my chest, then squatted. As I was squatting, the gym receptionist started powering things down and I asked her if the gym closed early today. She said that it did. I powered through my squats and thought "I'll leave the dead-lifting for another day" But I know that the gym closes early tomorrow(8pm) and I wouldn't be out of work until 9. I said "There's only 10 minutes left before you'll be an ass and stay past closing. Believe in yourself, you can do this. No excuses if you really want something. That's what you said to her when she blamed you for cheating, right?". So I ripped the plates off the squat rack, put them on the dl bar and started doing 2pl8's for 5x5. It was fucking hard guys, I tell you. I was wanting to quit, I'd just finished working 8 hours in a busy kitchen, saw the girl all day at work, she even ordered food that I cooked; only to see her sitting with the new guy and eating it with him. I wanted to just go home and cry, but I kept telling myself "You tried your best for her. Now do your best for you." I've never dead-lifted 2pl8s so fast and so cleanly. Another guy asked to work in when he saw me and I agreed, and together we both cranked out the lifts. I was spent and drenched in sweat. I'm not "better", it's hard, every day it's hard. But I haven't missed a workout since February and I know that I have it in me to be an even better person. You guys have helped me with this heartache a bit and I just wanted to give something back. Don't give in to the pain, use it; channel it and make yourself better for you. Don't let other peoples decisions shatter your world or make you stop fighting for yourself. People will give up on you. But you can always choose to not give up on yourself. God bless you guys and I hope you find happiness within.

Lift before you work you mongrel. I'm done lifting and enjoying a hearty plate of ham, eggs, bananas and peanut butter every day by 9 am
>>40829912
This. You feel like a god for the rest of the day and it improves your focus and confidence.
It takes a little while to get into a routine but once you're in, it's all good.
>>40829912
I prefer doing it after since I'm already grimy and just shower after.

So /fit/, what did you do to try and improve yourself today?
>>40829389
One week tobacco free, I've been able to do cardio everyday now right after work thanks to no blood vessel constriction. I might still be a 26 year old autist failure but I changed a little bit.
I've thought about finding a job
But it's been three years and I'm stuck in my routine and depression
I've been lifting and eating better for two months though so at least I'm on a slightly better path
Motherfucking cutting like a motherfucking boss, 1200 cals per day, 1600 if i lift or cardio that day.
for 3 weeks weight is going down at the rate of 1 kg per week
most of my calories come from red meat, white meat and chicken. so i know im getting a lot of proteins.
life is good the abs are gonna come
How does /fit/ feel about the use of psychedelics to enhance your mental performance in day to day life by coming to terms of all the weaknesses and defeats you carry everyday?
>>40829302
I think they can definitely help people develop themselves, but only if used in the correct way. Fucking with your brain shouldn't be taken as lightly as many psychonauts take it.
psychedelics give you a false sense of being free. ask people who become addicted to LSD and feel like they're creatively useless when sober. it's a pretty great placebo.

Drugs are great guys, do lots of them!
Reminder that this is what peak performance looks like.
Why do women think stretching is the same as fitness.
Its sexually impressive not really fitness impressive.

Cardio man. I've read somewhere every 30 lbs or some bullshit you lose it adds a inch to.your dick
What exercises would help me better with faster head movement and kicks/punches?
>>40829093
Probably whatever exercises they're doing at your local MMA gym.
Or a workout schedule of exclusively pendlay rows

What are essential fitness phone apps?
Stuff for tracking food, lift progression, and anything else related are appreciated :)
>>40828701
Hit it with a hammer x f
>>40828760
excuse me?
I use an app called Progression. It's on Google play, you can make a routine and track lifts with it. It has a ton of preset exercises and you can add your own.
>>40829065
He means hit with hammer to failure, eg destroy your phone.

don't worry about your penis size, 99% of girls do not give a fuck
i'm gonna start training jew jitsu soon.
i'm not gay, but i'm also not used to human contact. should i be worried about getting a boner when grappling another man?
not unless the thought of grappling men gives you a boner
>>40828647
No, you will be so exhausted and out of breath that your blood will be needed elsewhere.
>>40828647
I've never gotten a boner while rolling. You're concentrating on doing something specific and you won't be in closed guard for the entire hour. There's also 4 layers of cloth between the two of you (underwear + pants for both).
If you're too concerned, wear a cup.
>tfw another friday night at home alone after the gym

Put it on a plate and eat it.
I like to pair it with carrots alot, but I don't think carrots are a /fit/-approved vegtable.
>>40828450
carrots are incredibly nutritious
surprising for a vegetable that the average american might occasionally include in his diet
