Keep doing it until your lifts start plateauing, it's a strength programme so don't expect to get totally shredded. But it will build a good foundation to build the rest from.

/sci/ fag here looking for some advice.

I don't much care about staying fit and I would not even mind getting a little fat. But the thing is that my body is completely fucked up. I can't run properly, I can't even stand properly. All, I suppose, from years and years of barely standing up as all I do 24/7 is study mathematics.

I want to know simple and soft exercise that I can do every day when I wake up, when I come back from university and before I go to sleep, that will keep my body in a not-shit state.

I read online and from the suggestions in some blog posts the only one I like is jumping jacks. What else is out there that I could do regularly?

What was your first day at the gym like?

I literally live down the street from an internationally recognized competition venue that has a gym, and national and international events take place there on the reg. I wanna take advantage of this great blessing and the sticky has been helpful, but I wanna know what I don't know (in terms of what to wear, how to act, how to ask for help, and just not make an ass of myself)

Everything is self-explanatory, provided you're not autsitic. The only gym-etiquette you must know is the "point at the machine you want and make a puzzled face" to insinuate that you want that equipment but don't know if the people around it are using it.

Also, re rack weights (put the weights back on the racks) when you're done, and clean the shit you use.

>What was your first day at the gym like?

I asked the dude working the desk to set me up with a basic "I don't know shit" routine

Two weeks later I asked him what I could switch to stop doing bodyweight exercises

Three weeks later I asked him to show me a proper squat bench and deadlift form.

Honestly nobody will care about you(in a good way) and nobody will even look at you unless you fulfill one or more of the conditions:

* You are a hot chick

* You are an Olympic level performer or just currently the biggest dude in the gym

* You are doing something exquisitely dangerous and stupid with horribly bad form which will net you an injury and a gym a lawsuit.

Exercise induces muscle hypertrophy. Heat induces muscle hypertrophy. Both of these together synergize to induce hyper-hypertrophy.

Okay, but seriously… Here are a few of the basics of how muscle hypertrophy works: muscle hypertrophy involves both the increase in the size of muscle cells and, perhaps unsurprisingly, an accompanying increase in strength. Skeletal muscle cells do contain stem cells that are able to increase the number of muscle cells but hypertrophy instead generally involves an increase in size rather than number.

So what determines whether your muscle cells are growing or shrinking (atrophying)?
A shift in the protein synthesis to degradation ratio…and an applied workload on the muscle tissue (of course). That’s it.

At any given time your muscles are performing a balancing act between NEW protein synthesis and degradation of existing proteins. The important thing is your net protein synthesis, and not strictly the amount of new protein synthesis occurring. Protein degradation occurs both during muscle use and disuse. This is where hyperthermic conditioning shines: heat acclimation reduces the amount of protein degradation occurring and as a result it increases net protein synthesis and, thus muscle hypertrophy (as is the case during muscle use). Hyperthermic conditioning is known to increase muscle hypertrophy by increasing net protein synthesis through three important mechanisms:

Induction of heat shock proteins. [8,9]
Robust induction of growth hormone. [1]
Improved insulin sensitivity.[10]

Exercise induces both protein synthesis and degradation in skeletal muscles but, again, it is the net protein synthesis that causes the actual hypertrophy. When you exercise, you are increasing the workload on the skeletal muscle and, thus, the energetic needs of your muscle cells. The mitochondria found in each of these cells kick into gear in order to help meet this demand and start sucking in the oxygen found in your blood in order to produce new energy in the form of ATP. This process is called oxidative phosphorylation. A by-product of this process, however, is the generation of oxygen free radicals like superoxide and hydrogen peroxide, which is more generally referred to simply as “oxidative stress”.

Heat Stress Triggers Heat Shock Proteins That Prevent Protein Degradation
Oxidative stress is a major source of protein degradation. For this reason, any means of preventing exercise-induced oxidative protein damage and/or repairing damaged proteins, while keeping the exercise induced protein synthesis, will ultimately cause a net increase of protein synthesis and therefore will be anabolic.

Heat shock proteins (or HSPs), as the name implies, are induced by heat and are a prime example of hormesis. Intermittent exposure to heat induces a hormetic response (a protective stress response), which promotes the expression of a gene called heat shock factor 1 and subsequently HSPs involved in stress resistance.

HSPs can prevent damage by directly scavenging free radicals and also by supporting cellular antioxidant capacity through its effects on maintaining glutathione. [8,9]
HSPs can repair misfolded, damaged proteins thereby ensuring proteins have their proper structure and function. [8,9]

Okay, let’s take a step back from the underlying mechanisms and look at the big picture of heat acclimation in the context of increasing muscle hypertrophy:
>>
It has been shown that a 30-minute intermittent hyperthermic treatment at 41°C (105.8°F) in rats induced a robust expression of heat shock proteins (including HSP32, HSP25, and HSP72) in muscle and, importantly, this correlated with 30% more muscle regrowth than a control group during the seven days subsequent to a week of immobilization. [8] This HSP induction from a 30-minute whole body hyperthermic exposure can persist for up to 48 hours after heat shock. [8,9] Heat acclimation actually causes a higher basal (such as when not exercising) expression of HSPs and a more robust induction upon elevation in core body temperature (such as during exercise). [11-13] This is a great example of how a person can theoretically use hyperthermic conditioning to increase their own heat shock proteins and thereby reap the rewards.

Heat Stress Triggers A Massive Release of Growth Hormone
Another way in which hyperthermic conditioning can be used to increase anabolism is through a massive induction of growth hormone. [1,14,15] Many of the anabolic effects of growth hormone are thought to be mediated by IGF-1, which is synthesized (mainly in liver but also in skeletal muscle) in response to growth hormone. There are two important mechanisms by which IGF-1 promotes the growth of skeletal muscle:
Activation of the mTOR pathway, which is responsible for protein synthesis. [16]
Activation of the Akt pathway, which inhibits protein degradation. [16]

Mice that have been engineered to express high levels of IGF-1 in their muscle develop skeletal muscle hypertrophy, can combat age-related muscle atrophy, and retained the same regenerative capacity as young muscle. [17,18]
>>
In humans, it has been shown that the major anabolic effects of growth hormone in skeletal muscle may be due to inhibition of muscle protein degradation (anti-catabolic) and thereby increasing net protein synthesis. [16] In fact, growth hormone administration to endurance athletes for four weeks has been shown to decrease muscle protein oxidation (a biomarker for protein degradation) and degradation by 50%. [19]

My point is good news. You don’t need to take exogenous growth hormone. Sauna use can cause a robust release in growth hormone, which varies according to time, temperature, and frequency. [1,15]

For example, two 20-minute sauna sessions at 80°C (176°F) separated by a 30-minute cooling period elevated growth hormone levels two-fold over baseline. [1,15] Whereas, two 15-minute sauna sessions at 100°C (212°F) dry heat separated by a 30-minute cooling period resulted in a five-fold increase in growth hormone. [1,15] However, what’s perhaps more amazing is that repeated exposure to whole-body hyperthermia through sauna use has an even more profound effect on boosting growth hormone immediately afterward: two one-hour sauna sessions a day at 80°C (176°F) dry heat (okay, this is a bit extreme) for 7 days was shown to increase growth hormone by 16-fold on the third day. [14] The growth hormone effects generally persist for a couple of hours post-sauna.1 It is also noteworthy, however, is that sauna use and exercise can synergize to significantly elevate growth hormone when used in conjunction with each other. [20]

Does anyone know how to kill sex drive? I'm lesbian, and goddamn horny ALL THE TIME, and I HATE it. I've been thinking about taking birth control, but I've never eaten those pills before so I'm kinda worried about side effects... Has anyone here tried them? Do they actually even reduce sex drive? Any other ideas? Like what should I eat and what avoid? What about meditation, I heard that could work too? I spend at least an hour a day masturbating, and if I try to endure it without getting off I can't concentrate at all and end up even hornier, to the point I have to do it for hours and hours to get it off my mind. Not only does it consume my time, it's also fucking disgusting. I wish I was male so I could just get castrated:(
