Can someone give me advice on how to gain healthy fat? My boyfriend is being a little bitch because I have more muscle definition than him and I think it makes him self conscious. He's been trying to convince me to get fat. How do I go from 15-17% body fat to around 25% without causing health problems?

Your boyfriend is a gains goblin just keep getting swole.
Your boyfriend is a beta gains goblin go find someone who isn’t a little bitch
>>42745160
Make your boyfriend lose weight and get fit, he's probably also twisted and has a fetish for obese whales.
Failing that, dump him, we need more /fit/ women in the world.
Also post pics or this is a fat fetishist bait thread
Any of you brahs have acid reflux?
I have to workout on an empty stomach or I'll have acid coming up during my workout (especially when I bend over for something like rows or DLs).
How do you deal with it?
>>42737839
There are some good meds that help with that
>>42737839
>eat oats before the gym as they create less acid for me
>shove some Gavascon down by throat
>keep hydration at an equilibrium, too much water unsettles things
>power through whenever it doesn't go perfectly
I have it kinda on and off. my dad has a problem so maybe it's genetic
Stopping soda, fried food, and spicy stuff can really bring it down obviously. I used to take 1 pill of ranitidine a day to keep it down. I stopped doing that and just try to control my diet better. Always having plenty of water works too.
The time when you eat matters too. I cannot workout immediately after eating, I need about an hour. Working out on an empty stomach can cause me acid problems sometimes, but usually just makes me feel sick
Is our boy Vin natty?
>>42737808
Half natty.
And it's obvious that he's on the typical hollywood eternal youth,male vitality diet.
TRT a bit of hgh and some magical other element that's probably made from the dehydrated testicles of dragons or something.
>>42737808
Lifetime natty? No. He might be off cycle in that pic, though. With that said, I don't think he's ever really blasted grams and grams of shit, nor has he ever had a need to.
>>42737808
>Is our boy Vin natty?
You tell me
Hey /fit/. I've been lurking and I decided I want to start working out and improving my life. But the problem is I'm scared.
I'm scared of the fuck boys and materialistic faggots who go to the gym. I'm scared they'll criticize me and make fun of me for trying out something new.
Idk how to operate most of the machines correctly.
Has Anyone else had this problem before and if so how'd ya overcome it?
>pic related
>fuck boy
>>42737752
>caring what other faggots think
Never gonna make it
>>42737752
if you're scared of them judging you, go out there and prove them wrong. That's all you gotta do.
if you don't know about something there is always google
>>42737752
Let me be blatantly honest with you. Giving a fuck is the stupidest thing you could do when concerning other people's opinions of you, when and if those criticisms provide absolutely NO explanation or advice.
Simply put, don't be a little bitch. People will talk trash about you, or to you. Deal with it. Look at them, and ask yourself "Do these cunts really matter to me?". They're not your family, not your friends, and surely not anyone you want to be like, so why give anything they say any thought?
Also, for machines, there are staff you can ask and depending how good the gym, signs, on how to use the equipment. Google is another great solution like >>42737787 suggested.
Past that man, don't let others stop you from being the better person you want to be. Don't let them stop you in progressing towards the future you want. Because at the end of the day, if you take the shit they say to heart, if you let it stop you from going to the gym, you're only disappointing and betraying yourself.
As a beginner, is 10 minutes of HIIT with a 5-minute warmup and cooldown enough? Or, should I do 20 minutes with warmup and cooldown?
Bump
>>42737582
HIIT is a meme.
>>42737582
For legs i do some time in bicycle machine and for upper body i do some pull up bars
Im fine
What is the best fighting style for real self defense?
I feel like /fit/ should know about this
>>42744370
Krav Maga
>destroy the nuts end fight
>>42744396
This. Trained 4 years, taught 2. Saved my ass in the club bouncing years.
A grappling art mixed with a striking probably. In my opinion judo mixed with muay thai, but it's really more up to time practiced and experience than which specific style you train in as long as it's not retarded.
I know it's bad for me
When I actually stopped for a month I felt like I could conquer the world...and then I relapsed.
Give me your most convincing sauce and I will turn my life around and kick this fucking habit
>>42737519
Incremental gains man
>phase 1: 30 days no porn. No limit on faps
>phase 2: 30 days no porn. Limit faps to 2x weekly
>phase 3: 30 days no porn. Limit faps to 1x weekly
>phase 4: 30 days no porn. Limit faps to 1x fortnightly
If you fail, go back to phase 1 and start over. If you keep failing at a specific phase, go 90 days at the previous phase before progressing.

Fapping is actually good for you if done in moderation
Fapping to porn is not but convincing 2 girls, one fat, the other small to let the fat one sit on her face, fart a lot then smother her in piss IRL is really not as easy as it sounds
>>42739099
>Fapping is actually good for you if done in moderation
tired of hearing this shit it's never good for you porn or no its a waste of time and energy the body goes thorugh a regernation cycle of clearly defined and studied parameters to regenerate the sperm lost - men who constantly ejaculate are at a perpetual deficit, the body is constantly trying to recuperate but you won't let it. it renders you infertile, low energy, your brain chemistry is off balanced, it makes you more perverted, it steals your drive, and it generally just fucks you up until the several days after where you begin to feel like yourself again.
masturbation isn't good for you, it's a simple fucking lie that addicts love to spread around because it justifies their DEGENERATE jewish habits.
IF YOU CAN'T SPEAK THE TRUTH, THEN DON'T SPEAK AT ALL. STOP SPREADING LIES.
does /fit/ use a standing desk?
I do entire shifts like the second guy.
Only joking, I don't have the right hormone levels for office work.
>>42737546
are you a male prostitute?
>>42737503
Nope.
I have a colleague at the office whose back is fucked up (he's only 34yo and never lifted a shit). He needs to get up every 2 hs due to the pain.
Thread on which preworkouts you use and what flavors as well as how strong the effects are. Id also like to know if any preworkouts will negatively affect my digestive tract and make me shit blood or something. Ive been lifting for almost two years now and I havent needed preworkout since Im 19 and I have pretty much all the energy I need. However recently Ive realised that my workouts have been lacking because I just feel like im tired or my efforts are better spent outside of the gym. For this reason I was thinking about picking up some pic related to try. Anyone have any experience?

Assault became trash after musclepharn changed the formula.
Go with Mesomorph, or Mr. Hyde if you don't want DMAA

Is it possible to get good abs in 5 weeks? assuming body fat % is 7%
>>42737310
how are you getting to 7% bodyfat without training enough to know how to get abs?
did you do a cut with no muscle or knowledge of bodybuilding, cause that would be a mistake my friend
If you're at 7% then you'll have good abs
>>42737380
theoretical question
Hello /fitizens. I am from /ck. We recently learned about Rich because of his affinity for preworkout sips. As a member of the /ck community, and admirer of your boy Rich, I want to extend a crossboard message of condolence. You guys lost a hell of a body builder, and we lost one hell of a sipboy. I hope that all of us will quickly find peace in this time of mourning. We, /ck, are sorry for your loss.
>>42737307
lmao
>>42737322
1pl8?
he didn't sip his preworkout, he snorted them
>Type 1 diabetic
>No money for supplements
>Afraid of getting kidney stones, are they just a meme?
What do?
>>42737303
i have a co worker with kidney stones
i get the distinct impression you want to do whatever humanly possible to not have that happen
>>42737303
Why would you get kidney stones on keto?
>>42737323
Aye, that's correct. I'm still planning everything. No money for citrate tho, gotta drink some lemon juice everyday instead, but not sure if it's gonna work. Family has no story of kidney stone, but still don't want to risk it. Gotta drink some whole milk along the way, small amount, for the calcium, it will bind with the salad's oxalic acid (damn you spinach) in my intestines instead of my kidneys. Better shitting them than peeing them rite?
