How do I get legs like yours OP senpai?
Routine?
>2017
>NOT eating based curry every day
Cost shit all, refrigerates well for a week and tastes delicious and you can LITERALLY add whatever you like. Bulking? Cook it with lentils and pork. Cutting? Lean chicken and broccoli it is (that doesn't taste like plain trash)
Not to mention all that healthy spices you will consume
>inb4 Indian
>>40685929

I bet you smell good OP
>>40685929

Haha I laugh at your ignorance! Curry is basically veggies and meat cooked with spices! That's all and if that is "nigger food" then nigger me up

I didn't even realize I could do this.
I feel powerful.
"lifting won't help you in a fight" is a meme literally one hit and you have knockout power
highest score was around 950 made my some semiprofessional heavyweight boxer a few months ago
>>40685558
punching power is about speed, accuracy and weight.
there is a mysterious genetic component to it also, which is not well researched or understood. Two identical looking people might have an incredible disparity in power despite mechanically doing the same movement.
Since you have shit cardio presumably as a fatty, you will exhaust quickly in a fight unless you can land your killer ko punch quickly.
Actual fights between untrained people are often over in seconds as nobody knows how to block or dodge a punch and it's just two people throwing and one gets lucky and connects.
Your friend and his brother could rape you at their leisure probably, simply by getting you tired first.
Here is a fun exercise for you to do right now, stand up wherever you are, now hop up on the balls of your feet and bounce up and down continously, stay on your forefoot, now keeping your legs slightly wider than shoulder width apart, move around your room for the next 3 minutes while keeping your hands tight and high on your face.
Now imagine, adrenaline pumping, not knowing how to breathe when you punch, also punching and not just hopping around, and having to react to another person. Yeah, this is why most people can't fight, takes a whole set of athletic ability which needs to be trained for.
>>40685594
I should have said it better. I know nothing about sparring boxing and stuff.
I shadowboxed and learned combos and techniques for about 3 months, i have the basics of staying on your toes and shit down
they could prolly still rape me easy tho
>>40685558
An average person would be knocked by a lifter.
An average lifter would be knocked by even a beginner martial artist.
Your punch is no good if you cannot land it.
have you ever been mired from preteens

Some black women in their late 30s asked me what workouts I do for my butt today at work if that counts
>>40685420
post your fucking butt you whore.
guys help please. i bought 700g bag of whey and thought that since i will be taking 100g per day it will last me a week. logical. but after a week there is still plenty left. the scoop that came with it says 90ml and i was taking little more then a scoop per day. am i being retarded? did i miss something or is there like twice the amount of whey in a bag? i am getting some x-archive shit here.
>>40685333
It's called Gainz Hanukkah. Don't question. Praise Yahweh.
>100g
>90ml
I'd say this is a trolley if /fit/ wasn't really retarded sometimes
>>40685333
What's that word for when you realise that you'll look back at the previous year and three quarters and realise it was completely wasted?
>finished a degree I hated
>worked retailcuck part time jobs
>barely read more than 5 books
>did maybe a month's worth of productive stuff in my free time
>went to the gym regularly and lifts went up but ate lots of junk food and had coffee enough to harm sleep at times
>main hobby is taking walks or driving and feeling sad about my life and telling myself I will work extremely hard to learn productive skills tomorrow
>wasted gigantic amounts of time on internet and 4chan browsing
>told myself every day that I'd start working hard and eating healthily tomorrow and having genuine false hope almost every time
I can't motivate myself to work hard on anything or have goals. I know other people have quarter life crises but my life is fucking zooming past, not due to a boring 9-5 job but my inability to do anything with my free time.
I am a Stirnerite that knows deep down that all advice is trivial and worthless.
I hate that there are ten trillion topics considered important and that there is always someone willing to call you a retard if you don't know it. I fully realise that it's all social signalling nonsense. Yet it still weighs on me. There's always someone willing to say you only need to work hard if you're stupid. Or you're stupid not to work hard. Or that procrastination is great- or not. Or anything.
I feel like everything is so trivial it's not worth doing or extremely frustrating and out of my reach.
I see successful people and almost all of them just got in to the right institutions and took the elevator up with tonnes of support. I go to graduate assessment days and am surrounded by normie clones who are interviewed by their normie clones. I have almost no chance. And these are interviews for "respected" jobs that usually do pointless things.

Right off the bat, I have to say this post really connected with me. I think a lot of us are going through a similar struggle. And I don't think there is a well-known, one-size-fits-all solution.
The only tiny amount of progress I've made in this area is:
(1) There seems to be some hard-coded phenomenon in us where accomplishment begets accomplishment. So perhaps try to keep some momentum up in your life?
(2) Loving yourself sounds cheesey, but I always feel less inclined to waste my own time if I realise I actually like myself and want to help myself. But part of this is realising its okay to be mediocre and sometimes fail. It's okay you only read 5 books.
About Stirner: I try to keep in mind that he died on the run from debtors and largely alone (only 2 people at his funeral, IIRC). But I do love his idea of using ideas as tools.
The people who we so often see as virtuosos or geniuses typically have foregone so much balance in their personal lives - but that is hidden from us.
Again, I'm just a pleb, but in terms of something concrete: why not find just one (relatively healthy) thing in your life you genuinely love, and do that for a while? Forget 'being productive'. From where I stand, it sounds like you're living a pretty decent life. I don't really understand what you're so upset at.
I sound like a Jordan Peterson wanker...

Just go join the army or something you clown.

Does anyone here go to a tanning salon? Is it safe if I use it sparingly? I work graveyard shift and with the winter weather I rarely get any sun and I'm starting to look like a fucking vampire.

Is John Cena physique achievable as a natty?
define "natty"
I have a better body than that, fully natural but take protein and creatine.
I am a serious trainer though, gym at least once a day, even Christmas day etc, never drink or see friends because either doing weights or resting up. A lot of effort and sacrifice
>>40685298
>I have a better body than that
i do jump rope instead of run.
will i live ?
/jumper/ here
of course bro
make sure to do weighted jump ropes as you get better
>>40683989
thats good idea.
for now i'm working up slow. i went to crazy back in october and got stress fracture. so took time off and now increasing very slowlyly. then will work in the different types of jump, then def weight the ropes that sounds cool
>>40684007
yeah man, if you want top quality ropes go on crossrope.com
If not
then go on amazon and getadler ropes, theyre slightly cheaper
then when you think your ready get a pair of gloves and try this bastard: https://www.amazon.com/Rope-Fit-1-5-Heavy-Jump/dp/B00FB3GLUO/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1489381258&sr=8-6&keywords=weighted+heaVY+ROPE
Would you consider Joe Rogan a solid source of work out advice?
On a side note, what do you think of his podcast and general philosophy on life?
He's aight.
>>40683927
>tfw taller than Joe
feels good man
>>40683927
no way.
but he's a well rounded successful dude and i generally listen to him about anything but DUDE WEED LMAO and DUDE KETTLEBELLS LMAO and whatever supps he's shilling.
and man, that Alex Jones podcast had my sides in another dimension
I've looked it from all perspective.
I have a job and studies that take ALL my time.
I have literally no time to make meals myself and I'm not making any progress in strength because of it.
This is so fucking frustrating.
How do you guys do it? How do you eat to bulk up when you don't have time to cook?
You have the time. Either adjust your priorities or shut up
You have time to make this shit thread. You have time to make food.
>>40683911
>>40683909
I'm making this thread while finishing my exercise for tomorrow's course and I had to stay awake for it...
>6'1
>265
>25% bf
Am I fucked? How scrawny am I going to have to go before being able to bulk?
I already started resistance exercises and high protein dieting but I still don't know how long it'll take. Lost 90 lbs already but did it all fucking wrong
>>40683874
Just lift weights and get used to eating actual food with some level of portion control.
When you have the habit of preparing and eating healthy meals, then you can worry about the number of calories in each meal.
If you lift weights, as the fat comes off you will simply expose your muscles. They might not be big muscles. But you can worry about that later.
Or do it the other way around.
Bulk now, then cut.
>>40683874
You are way more than 25% body fat lol
Tricep Routine
When focusing on triceps, I would always do chest before so my triceps would already be kinda worked out. Then, I did tricep pushdowns then overhead dumbbell tricep extension to complete my tricep workout.
I wanna try to focus on each head of the triceps now so instead of doing just those two, I'm gonna do close-grip chest press (all 3 heads but not so good on long head), overhead dumbbell tricep extensions (long), tricep pushdown (lateral), and reverse tricep pushdowns (medial).
What order do you guys think would be best to do these 4 exercises? I was thinking of doing it in the order listed above, since I should go from heavy compound presses down to isolation exercises, but if close-grip works out medial/lateral and not really the long, shouldn't I do the long head first and then do close grip and then the last two? Thanks for anyone who responds
>>40683700
Wanna know how I know you just started lifting?
>>40684324
Sure buddy
>>40683700
I'm more interested in that picture. Are you saying a fucking 12% would be a B- after that curve?
