So do you really start finding it easy to pull women once you've made it?
Don't get me wrong, I'm lifting for my own satisfaction with my body and to maybe sort myself out some, but giving that it's been year or so since I've had consistent sex it'd be a pretty good bonus
i was a pretty boy before lifting so yes
but who gives a fuck about what women are instinctively attracted to. any man can go to the gym and start a novice program. any man can eventually get swole, bench 2 plates.
what matters is if you get strong as fuck. aesthetics is a byproduct of strength and being strong af is something women can literally NEVER DO, AAHAHAHAHA
it's like the one most glaring, blatant advantage we have over them
First off, I had to check if this wasn't written by me. I mean, wow, are you me?
>>40538575
I don't think so but it's good other people have similar goals behind liftin
bein a useless flabby shit sux and makes me discontent when I look in the mirror
What routine should a complete beginner do for aesthetics/size? I heard that it's possible to start with a pure hypertrophy program and no 5x5, SS, etc...
Pic is my body.
help /fit/
>>40538344
literally anything
also eat less

How's PPL?
Hey /fit/ I've been doing fullbody workouts 3x week for a few months now and am not making as much progress anymore. I now want to do either a ppl or upper lower routine. Any tips/suggestions/recommendations? Help a nigga out
>>40538319
i'm in the same boat but i've been doing full body @ 3/week for a little bit over a year.
i can manage weekly progression but it's slow and i'm not putting on much size.
i'm thinking of switching to a ppl with high volume and seeing how that works for me. never really did anything high volume for a long period of time.

>go to gym the first time
>all sweaty after so take shower
>come back and everyone is staring
>mfw they found the cum homunculus
has this happened to you? How did you deal with it?
>>40538232
Whats a cum homunculus dare i ask
>>40538232
Just say it isn't yours
Well you deserve it OP
It's common Gym etiquette to make your cum homunculus wait outside the changing room as he is technically not a member of the gym
Hello, 5'11 19yr old manlet here. I wanna gain at least 3 inches to lose the manlet status. At 19, do i still got a chance? if so, would working out, stretching, and drinking milk really do the trick?
>>40538230
doubtful desu
better you learn to love yourself
>>40538230
Stop fapping, do violent things, and pray.
>>40538248
But however things work out, you should also do this.
>>40538230
better start looking into HGH and IGF sources m8
I haven't lifted in two years
Give me one good reason why I shouldn't run a cycle of test and dbol for 4 months with a 1k surplus, eat whatever I want, then get off and maintain my natty limit.
Because you need to know how to lift.
>>40537856
Squeeeeeeeeeak
Oh silent but deadly this time!
Quite pungent my dear
Why do people keep using the same images of this girl? Like there's another thread on catalog right now with this exact image, use a different one ffs
Get it goin
Why aren't you a huge jacked man, /fit/?
>tfw he's natty
>>40537706
damn his delts are small.
>>40537718
Your delts look small if you're deadlifting heavy tbf
In this one his delts are ok, but his arms are small
he's got the same upper/arm (tricep/bicep relation) that I do where they looks smaller when your palms are parallel , makes me wonder what other if this is a body-type type of thing
I'm looking for recommendations on dip belts and wrist straps. You can never tell what percentage of Amazon reviews are shills. What do you use, /fit/?
Help me out. Nothing?
>>40536876
Go to a fucking bodybuilding store and ask there
>>40536876
buy a respectable brand. you can get eleiko straps for <20$
If I am 145lbs 5'10 as a male, how much protein do i need to eat to make sure I am gaining as much muscle as possible?
>>40536791
0.8 to 1.25 grams per pound of lean mass is the formula I use.
>>40536791
Just take .7 to 1 gram of protein * bw. so for you it would be 116 grams of protein a day and you'll have pretty much max gains.
No natural needs more than 100g of protein.
What the fuck was this guy's problem?
>>40536786
mirin' those shoulders desu
Manlet

Manlet
Just got a pull up bar, but i forgot to check if my door trim was at a 90 degree angle, which it is not, it goes slightly down, not much but a bit.
Could i fall and erect myself?
put some couch cushions in the doorway
do you only have one doorframe in the house?
also put masking tape on the wall behind the top black bar because it can leave black smudges
>>40536704
I live in an apartment so i have two with the same trims.
is 5'10 manlet status? if so, i'm fucked.
>>40536677
6'2 is the cutoff for manlet status. You're super fucked kiddo
>>40536677
Congrats on popping your cherry, manlet.
It's average in North America, so it definitionally can't be "manlet status"
However, average is certainly not ideal. How many girls do you know always harp on about finding an average? Or show off about how average their boyfriends are?
At 5'10, you are excluded from some women, but not many (and I don't just mean taller girls).
It does amaze me how much height truly matters to majority of women, which I guess is the reason this insecurity is so dramatized here
Do it
>>40536587
theyre for faggots and high school football teams
they're the best
>>40536587
They're the same as a hack squat.
is the fix for this:
horizontal rows
reverse flies
chest stretching
lat stretching
shoulder stretching
because i keep doing this but don't seem to be making much progress
You also need to actively force yourself into a correct posture, its not magically happen from alone.
