Hyperextended my elbow.
How long should I stop lifting for? I tried the other day and it hurt.
It only seems to hurt pretty bad on pulling motions, whereas it just has a slight ache during anything pushing.
Lift through it. Inactivity will prolong the injury.

How? I'm scared now.
I remember seeing one of you fucks mention this yesterday.
What exactly is Mastic Gum and why would it be beneficial?
If it is beneficial, what would you guys recommend be bought?
>>40529553
I believe its made of some kind of tree sap, and its basically like very tough gum.
The idea is you chew it for a few hours a day (becomes pretty tiring) with the goal of increasing jaw muscle size. Basically compensate for having terrible maxillae.
No proof it works though but I've been tempted to buy it just for experimenting
>>40529553
>>40529591
this is true, but those muscles get worked every time you eat or talk anyways so it's kind of a waste of money for 95% of people
dumbasses around here seem to think that it will magically give you some killer jawline/chin, which is completely false, since those are entirely genetic
put your hand in front of your ear on your face/cheek and clench your teeth. the flex that you feel is the muscle that mastic works. If you can talk and eat you don't need it
>>40529736
This may be true, that I don't need it.
But I chew gum all the time to stop eating so much, wouldn't chewing this instead only help?
A lot come in each package, and the prices line up fairly well with standard gum.
Stop lifting heavy weights.

After losing my virginity to a whore, I not longer feel interested in sex, since then I haven't even watched porn and don't even want to fap.
is this normal?
Why didn't you save yourself for marriage, anon?

lmao.
I stopped being a chicken tendie eating fat fuck with good boy points.
I lost 100 pounds. Went from 297 to 197.
I walk 65 miles a week, stationary bike 5-6 hours a week. Eat 2500-3000k per day food.
I've plateaued.
Now what?
>>40528752
SS + GOMAD
How long did it take?
>>40528752
LIFT
Howdy. I'm hungry, but need to lose weight. How do I not eat? Is there a way to kill my appetite?
Ritalin worked for me. Now I'm out and it's hard to do it too. I eat when I'm bored. I'm also depressed and food is a quick source of pleasure. It's a tough battle. Ive been lifting for years and was never able to cut.
>>40528693
Count calories.
Eventually it'll be easier.
I'm on the 4th week of my cut and went from ~3500 per day down to 2500-2700.
First week felt like shit, now I feel hungry occasionally but fine overall.
Having a cheat/refeed day once a week also helps.
>Howdy
The hunger is psychosomatic, you're actually just bored.
Fill your day so you have something to do.
Schedule your eating so it's near-constant but not caloric.
Basically eat tiny meals all day long so you're always snacking but still meeting your goal.
Stop squatting.
>>40528617
No thanks
>>40528617
Dom agrees
Just squat a little bit senpai. I do a push/pull split. On push days I alternate between lowbar squats and barbell bridges. No chicken legs, bigger ass, more overall strength to help with jiu-jitsu. Just cover all your bases brah.
Should I watch this?

3 more inches and you're golden
>>40528204
Doesn't look like you're even hitting parallel m8
Unless you're using a Dragon Dildo then no.
Remember most butt plugs are 3-8 inches in height and you aren't nearly at that depth.
What the fuck /fit/
are you telling me I can burn some calories by sitting on my ass?
>>40528153
You'll burn calories simply by existing anon.
Even the wasted thoughts you use on this site burns a good amount of calories.
What you actually do is what matters.
>>40528183
Sure, I understand that we burn calories always but we burn them for useful functions and mechanisms not "because we're sitting" or am I fucking wrong?
I'm not a /fit/fag to know this sort of shit

Anon are you ok?
At what stage should you incorporate dips and pullups into your workout?
Nigger, do them whenever the fuck you want. Why do you need your hand held for something so fucking simple?
>>40528065
I've tried and failed
>>40528116
So keep trying until you succeed. No other exercise is going to advance you in pullups except pullups.

Basically this OP.
Also if you haven't been working out I wouldn't. You need to know what workouts and routines are best for you. Other than that the whole "low fertility" shit isn't a permanent thing that happens to everyone. Besides hcg will help.
Also you're 18 fuck you worried about low fertility for? Anytime I'm on I bust nuts in females with no worries. A lot of people will say I'm a fool because you can still get a female preggos though.
As an idiot, I have a few questions.
Anyone with newbie questions can use this thread.
I recently moved, and the gym that I have a subscription with, at the new location is shit. One of the issues is that the only benches they have that have something to lock your legs on, only go up to 20 degrees. What can I use instead to do push ups?
Because I can't even do one pull up, I used a counter weight at the old gym. It was quite simple. However at the new gym, the same concept is now a massive machine that I hate, and I still can't even do one pull up.
Can I use those elastics I've seen around, to help with pull ups?
I drink quite a bit. Beer mostly. And because my friends start on Friday, I lose that day of exercise.
I've read that alcohol ruins progress in the sticky, but how much? If I stopped drinking for 2 months, and focused, would I notice an increase in gains?
>>40527550
Get better at chin ups, then
And yeah stop drinking, easier gains
>>40527550
Yeah cut down on sugary and alcoholic drinks. Also do machine lat pulldowns if you can't do pull-ups
>>40527645
>>40527676
The sticky seems determined that machines shouldn't be used
We were just bullshitting around, and I ended up losing. Getting man-handled hurts and it fucking sucks. My body is still aching and bruised.
I have NO grappling gyms in my small city. Is there ANY way I can learn this by myself?
>>40527425
Doesn't have to be jiu-jitsu, did you look into Judo or western (catch, Greco, whatever) wrestling?
>>40527425
pipebomb!
>>40527425
You can practice techniques by yourself. But to make them useful you absolutely need to practice them with others that are actually trying. The classes are more for learning discipline and getting a decent workout using their equipment. In reality all you need is to have a sparring partner. Or multiple that you can rotate between is optimal, since once you figure out one persons moves you can go and learn a whole new technique against another opponent since they Will haave an entirely different skill set.
