Bench more, a lot more. Presses and deadlifts/rows/curls are more important for looks and real life strength.
If you can squat 315 for even 1 rep your legs have good size. Training calves is more important than squat frequency, but still try to maintain a good squat, but don't go overboard on leg training. Leg days are useless.
Full body 2-4 times a week is the way to go if you want a life and have a job.

Friendly reminder: You will lose all your hard earned gains within 3 years after you stop lifting.

The loss is inevitable. What can you do to stop or slow it down?
This keeps me up at night. I think of all my hard earned gains, all the pain, all the misery pushing through another set.
Does this only affect steroid users in such a massive way?

>>40410303
I'm sure the cessation of steroid use has nothing to do with it.

Deadlifts done with perfect form will help your back muscles and improve posture better than any other exercise.

Am I the only guy here who lost all his motivation to hit the gym ?
I use to lift weights and exercise for 1 whole month and it kind of feels pointless now.
The drive isn't their anymore.

Not OP but am at intermediate progression and competing in powerlifting competitions, and do feel totally beat up on rest days while my powerbuilding routine does fucking kick my ass.
I do feel healthier than when was obese with no muscle mass but do agree with OP's statement about rest days.

These are unequivocal symptoms of low test, right? Especially the first point which distinguishes it from normal depression.

Go get lab work done and look at your blood chemistry. If you rule that out talk to your doctor, they will probably refer you to a specialist.

I can still cum I just don't remember the last time I had the explicit desire to.

>>40409625
Hmm... which of the brain controls your desires again? The brain!
Brain tumors effect brains.
If you have depression try St. Johns Wort before getting on SRI's

Looking for amusing, nerdy and or witty ass shit to have on for tanks to wear at the gym.
Either listing places to get them or shit I could upload to redbubble is cool.
Interests sideways to /fit/ include reading, gaming 40k, innawoods and generally geeky shit.

does working out cure clinical depression?

>>40409379
No but it helps.
>>
Yes, the body stores dopamine/other endorphins when in a state of chronic inactivity. When one exercises the brain is more willing to release dopamine because it recognizes that you are engaging in necessary action. So pretty much lard asses are typically depressed for a good reason
>>
>>40409379
No, but it helps with the symptoms.
Hope is what cures clinical depression.
