>do squats everyday they said
>you'll make gains no matter what if you're new they said
Imagine getting kicked in the nuts by this guy
I'm unironically thinking about cutting back squats out of my routine.
This guy probably lays pipe at 90 mph

Hey /fit/izens, need some help.
>ended my exams period
>almost 3 months of pain
>taking a piss
>look down
>fat.
I'm basically your average Joe with no muscle and a big gut, today i'm going to the gym, can't stand this fat, would this workout work well? pic related. Or should i do something different?
And if the workout structure is good, when should it be a good moment to start bulking?
>>40456534
terrible advice, read the sticky.
If you are just looking to lose some fat, this vague guideline will do. Just don't eat junkfood and get some exercise.
But if you have long term goals, read the goddamn sticky, then report back
Going to the sticky then.
Are your pets /fit/ too?
>>40456431
Fuck no my cat is a lil fatty
no
She still gettin them noob gains. But she's a good pupper
Is Aikido a scam?
I can't find any solid information on it being useful in any way. Any videos of it in action seem to be weebs larping in fields letting themselves be thrown around.
Does anyone here practice Aikido?
>>40456118
I did it for like a year. if you are looking for a legitimate self-defense program, and get into Brazilian jujitsu or Thai kickboxing. Aikido is not a self-defense art. it is a philosophy and is therefore valuable. any aikidoka who will tell you their style is combat effective will quickly find they must use other styles to survive.
Aikido is very practical if you want to spar with other aikido students other than that it's not much. Aikido is based around the idea that you throw your opponents while pretending to clutch a sword or treating your arm is a sword. If you want to throw people in a semi useful way try judo or jiu jitsu
>>40456143
it does teach you how to fall but nothing or little or real struggles against trained strikers or grapplers. it is only useful against the untrained...or against other aikifags

>Strength training is the best way for a natty to gain aesthetics
When will this meme die?
SS and Rippetoe are pure garbage but strength training is fine and bodybuilding should get you strong.
It should be all one thing, physical development.
>>40455963
I'm a skinny fuck ss is working out for me. Plus I do a fuck load of cardio and count muh calories. Week number 2 and I can already see all KINDS of GAINS
>>40456220
>i lift for 2 weeks trust me brah ss works for aesthetics
these things are fucking kryptonite. I really need to remember to stop buying them.
anyways, kryptonite thread.
>>40455718
B-but they're high in fiber brah.
>>40455718
Whataburger in general is the bane of my cuts
Too much sex. All the cardio is killing Muh gains
I just did 1x5 LMAO2PL8 deadlifts
how the fuck is this possible? I could barely do half the weight 1 month ago.
Is it all downhill from here or will I continue progressing? How long until 3 plates?
share your deadlift progress with us anon
I'm on stronglifts so my deadlift goes up 15lbs every 2 weeks. Just hit 2 pl8 too so with these steady gains I'll hit 3pl8 in 12 weeks
>>40455742
isn't it crazy to lift this weight off the floor? It's unreal for me when I loaded 2 plates, and the weight just kept going up like it's nothing, and not once, but 5 times. I don't know but lifting is seriously making me confident as fuck.
>>40455751
the heavier the deadlift, the longer it takes your body to recover from it. i was stuck at 4pl8 for a month trying to pull them twice a week and then said fuck it and only focused on squats. a month later i tried them again and got up to 4.5 with relative ease.
if you do them often, don't do them above 90% of your 1RM.
Is there a worse fake natty out there?

My gym doesn't have any squat rack but it does have a smith machine. Giving that there's no way to squat with a barbell there, is it better to squat using the smith machine or not squatting at all? Maybe using the Hack squat or romanian deadlift...
Honestly dont squat at all then.. Do some dumbbell split squats and stuff
>>40455593
I used to believe its better than nothing do I spent a few months using one. Now 3 weeks into another gym with barbells I not only decreased what I lifted, I also feel weak and the Smith proved to have no use for strength training.
Almost 6 months completely wasted.
>>40455606
OP here
There is also goblet squat... maybe i'm not entirely doomed to weak legs
How does one acquire back muscles and bigger arms?
>>40455482
working them out
>>40455491
For back do pulldowns rows and deadlifts
For arms do close grip bench shoulder press and Arnold press
I'm tired of being weak, guys. I've decided to stop training for size and will now focus on strength.
Current stats:
Deadlift: 145kg
Squat: 115kg
OHP: 60kg
Bench: 87,5kg
What program do you guys recommend for me? I don't really care if I get fat. What is the optimal way to build strength in my big 4?
>>40455413
Starting Strength. Actually stick to the programming.
>>40455413
28 free or 531
>>40455413
