lateral knee pain during stretches

Lately when doing stretching exercises I've been starting to feel pain in my knees. Not unusual one'd say. Though nearly every single source I try to find referring to this talks about the the medial side of the knees. For me, the pain is on the lateral side.
So question, anyone know why during the splits I get pain on the lateral sides of the knees (between tibia-patella)? It seems counter intuitive.

Is it inside or outside pain? If it is outside it is likely your IT band. At least this was my problem. Foam rolling and stretching it out properly should help. I am no doctor though, so do you.

The pain is on the outside, though (unless the pain radiates and I shouldn't trust my senses), the pain seems to become from below the kneecap (left-bottom). That is what confuses me.
Was the pain you felt with your IT band to the far outer side?

So here's one thing I never read on the sticky or see on this board discussed.
I recently upped my cardio taking it semi-serious and besides the obvious endurance gains - it actually upped my weight rep range I workout with unexpectedly. I expected weaker lifts as a trade off but it's been the opposite and it's been like this for 2 months now. I've kept my calories the exact same, so can I expect a steady increase for the future if I keep this up?
Bench 225 from 4 reps to 9 reps
Squat 405 3 reps to 7

hello progressive loading where you either increase weight or reps over time

>>40535387
What kind of cardio are we talking about here? Rowing? Swimming? Not all cardio is equal.

Outdoor cycling, treadmill, skipping.

Should I focus on volume or intensity during a cut?

So in other words: is it better to train for mass (high reps) or for strenght (low reps)?

BOTH.Don't skip exercises,sets or reps.Try to maintain them all including the weight you lift on each exercise.If you're losing strength too fast you should increase your calories by a bit

Hey /fit/ gonna keep it simple. I used to be a fatass and weighed 220 lbs and now I am 135ish
I did lift when I lost weight but I ended up skinny fat (pic related) should I keep losing weight or just bulk? I have been stuck at this weight for a while now and have been thinking of just bulking now to gain some muscle then cut later. I think it's a mix of skin and fat...thoughts?
Height - 5'6 :(
Weight: 135 lbs
Tl;dr bulk or "cut"

Dont bulk, eat just over maintenance with at least 2g protein per kg bodyweight.

Before pic. Also I mentioned I ended up skinny fat but maybe I'm mistaken ...am I even skinny fat or still considered just Fat? If it helps, the original pics were taken at night after my meals so my stomach is slightly bloated

>Asprey has claimed that when used in combination with other "health hacks," the coffee helped to boost his IQ score by more than 20 points.[2] His company claims that Bulletproof Coffee can aid cognition and trigger weight loss through ketosis.[16]
Dietitians point out there is no scientific basis for these claims, and that any sense of alertness from Bulletproof Coffee is "just a caffeine buzz."[16] Some physicians like Dr. Frank Lipman[17] and Dr. Andrew Weil[18] believe that, when combined with a balanced diet, drinking buttered coffee could be healthy and "might give you a bit more energy than your everyday cup."[15][19]
Asprey claims that most coffee beans contain high levels of mycotoxins and that this "steals your mental edge and actually makes you weak." He sells a brand of "upgraded" beans which are advertised as having undergone a secret, proprietary process to reduce mycotoxin levels.[20][21] However, Physician David Bach has observed that coffee producers are already good at removing mycotoxins from their product, and that there is no evidence to support Asprey's claim that mycotoxins make people "sluggish".[22]

I have the sick and burning need to tell /fit/ how I have been inspired every single fucking gym moment in my entire fucking career at the gym.
Most of you fucks go to the gym because you have personal goals. Some of you do it simply so random girls can respect you. Moreso, some of you just want to do it just because you want to be stronger in life. Maybe you like to look fit in clothes, abs, I don't fucking know. Lots of you make threads and ask...."how do you keep motivated?" and shit like "my pre-workout isn't working anymore".
Anons, what fuels me might be petty, but for quite some time now, what fuels me on a sick level, every single fucking day, is the need to overcome the man who stole the heart of my childhood crush. Ironic enough, I also work with this girl, and every day, even though she fights her fiance a lot, she always talks of his muscles, and fuck does that burn a hole in my heart. My adrenaline kicks in like a never-ending burning explosion of pure sheer energy that is so fucking raw, that if you could harness a drop of it, it should last one anon a fucking year of inspiration. My hatred, my rage, my desires, my wishes, my wants, my depression, my lust, my soul POURS into the forge of fucking SHEER WILL POWER. The question for me isn't how many reps I can do. The question isn't how heavy I can go. The fucking question is HOW LONG DO I WANT TO BE IN THE GYM. The more I go, the harder it is to break me down. I fucking can't stop. I am the wheel that spins and spins and never fucking stops.

My hatred boils nonstop. I make the rivers of hellfire in hell itself have heavy representation of never-ending bloodlust. I wish I wasn't so fucking full of hatred, because all of my workouts are adrenaline exploding rage. When you truly love someone, and you lift in anger that you can't have them no matter how hard you try, and they compare you to a greater sized man who is more raw then you, all fucking life and the food it can provide goes to hell. I have left humanity behind. There are no rest days. There is no rest mentally. My existence is pain, and the gym is the place to demonstrate my hatred and pain into a physical beacon of artistic demonstration that I gnash and grovel at. I lift depressingly, spitefully, lovingly, pitifully, angrily hard. My hatred is neverending, and only death can stop this ocean from flowing.

You're a beta for caring so much about your childhood crush

Pre-workout is not pre-workout. It is an enhancement to my soul which is my true pre-workout.
The fruity powdered drink is the gasoline to my engine. The engine that burns the pre-workout into a dangerous and 4 hour lasting session of sheer fucking hate into a swirling vortex of deep breathing, sweating, and roaring.
I am the pre-workout.

How do I know how many calories I burn running? I did 30 minutes on the treadmill and ran 3.4 miles. My watch (Gear S2) said I burned 350 calories, the treadmill said I burned 500 and MyFitnessPal said 600. Which number is more accurate? Is there a better way to measure?

Your watch is the most accurate. The rough rule is 100 calories per mile.

Has /fit/ ever used their hard earned physique and muscles to meet and/or attract women/men?
Seems to be a waste when the only place you can "show off" is the beach, unless you pull a Jeff and start climbing around Walmart.
How do you use your hard earned work to your advantage /fit/?

Live in a hot climate. Shorts and open shirts are the dress code even way inland of the beach.

Just wear tight clothes?

>>40533476
Well fitting clothes.
You can easy get jeans to show off your ass, and shirts to show lats, shoulders, pecs, forearms.
Plus snapchat. Chicks always say 'no gym selfies, muscley guys are actually unattractive' yada yada yada until they are actually presented with it, then they do a complete 180

I've read poor diet along with breathing problems causes weak face and irregular growth in kids, once you're like 25 it's too late and you'll need surgery to change anything
