I think rowing machine is the best warmup exercise.
rowing is the best. if there was only one exercise i could do, it would be rowing.
>>40408954
Yeah, it's the best. Legs, back, shoulders and arms are moving, so everything gets warmed up. I usually try to stay at 150W for 10 minutes.
Btw there is only one good rowing machine and it's the concept2. The one in your picture is shit

Doing lots of volume to work on getting my 2k down
Just wondering for all the other college students/20 year olds out there how much do you spend on groceries a week? And how can I optimize my grocery bill? I spend about 150-200 a week on food and I feel its way too much. Going to trader joes tomorrow wondering what I should get?
>Trader Joes
Don't bother. Find your local Walmart SuperCenter.
Canned fish is super cheap and good. Potatoes. Eggs. Veggies for those gains.
FROZEN CHICKEN BY THE FUCK TON
Maybe some fruit.
I spend $100/month on myself for groceries.
Go to the cheapest place possible (fucking not trader joes)
Get good produce, lots of eggs, some bread or tortillas, and then whatever meat you like.
>>40408891
Weekly varies too much.
300€-450€ monthly. Again depends how much I eat out that month.
I always knew kanye was patrician, but is he /ourguy/?
To keep this fit related, how necessary are warm up sets? Any ratio for weight or should it just be light as possible to just get the motion going?
>>40408853
Wow kink shaming much?
>>40408974
back 2 tumblr you degenerate faggot
>>40408997
Meh, fuck her though for being such a cunt about it.
What is something I should listen to every morning to get myself ready and energized for the day?
Do you guys listen to anything that makes you feel happy?
>>40408750
One of the best things I can recommend is waking up and meditating for ten or so minutes, then listening to a playlist with a gradually increasing bpm until you're hyped up and focused. Also go sit in the sun for half an hour with your choice of breakfast and beverage.
Hagen's call to the vassals (Frick, the Solti recording). Always gets me raring to go.
muslim prayer call will wake you right up and pump you up. i know, i wake up every morning to it and it makes me want to go berserk and murder all of them.
i just got declined to enter the gym because im not 19??
>>40408697
Better cry about it on 4 chan
>>40408697
Are you asking a question or is that what happened?
>>40408717
i went to the gym
Any Martial arts that are actually effective in a fight ?
>>40408594
Boxing, some sort of grappling maybe? (not that you'd want to be on the ground in a fight outside)
Maybe easier to just carry pepperspray/knife/baton/gun though
Rex Kwan do
Gun fu.

Enjoy your mouth ulcers bro.
What's your sleep routine, /fit/?
>>40408471
recently iv been putting on the joe rogan + alex jones podcast about an hour before bedtime to mellow me out, I get 8-9 hours a night and wake up at 7am feeling bang tidy
>>40408471
8 hours of sleep with 2 or 3 piss breaks
I work nights so it can be hard to get quality sleep. I have a fan blowing almost full blast just for the white noise otherwise city traffic and stuff will wake me up.
I use android sleep to track my quality and stop snoring. Try to get 8 1/2 hours a day.
Anyone else struggle with this shit?

>people walk on eggshells when I'm around
Usually I don't go physical, I'm not a child. But I always, always confront people when I feel like they're fucking with me. I've tried not to before, but then that shit just won't leave my head and I'll be later punching the air in the shower like a retard again to vent off the frustration. I was thinking about going to a shrink, because recent events lead me to believe it might be getting out of control a bit.
I know this isn't strictly /fit/, but I think this might be the one place where people who were fucked with growing up and then became strong enough to fight back browse.
>>40408269
I struggled with anger issues as a kid and my dad currently does. Honestly I think professional help would be great. It's never good to have that kind of reputation and getting help from a professional is the best way for you to help yourself.
>>40408269
embrace the dark side, just make sure to get into fights with multiple people at once so it looks like 'self defence'
nothing gets you more pussy and respect than beating 3 guys at once to a bloody pulp
>>40408269
I'm you except I never got big. Imagine all the anger and still no strength to do anything to assholes that fuck with you.
Idk how to advise you because I still wanna get big and just fuck some asshole up lmao.
>6'4 280lbs
>start muay thai and decent diet
>lose 30lbs over 3 months
>want to join gym to get stronger for MT
Would SS be a good choice to combine with MT?
Both 3 days a week.
>>40408259
Fuck brahs need an answer
Not sure about combining workouts like that, SS is implying that you go to gym 3 times a week and have plenty of time to rest. Lifting will benefit your strength no matter what, it just not gonna be optimal. Try to search on your own, browse SS forums or something, I'm not that qualified to give you right answer.
>>40408259
I've been doing muay thai for 3-4 months and hitting the gym for 2 weeks now and its great.
I'm good looking now. Girls give me attention and try to hit on me all of the time. I'm 25 though and I'm a virgin. I've never even kissed a girl. Every single time they try to take it to the next level, I always pussy out and pretend like I don't know what's going on or that I'm not interested. /fit/, I need help. I don't know how to get over this and it's killing me. I want to be honest about all of this with someone, like my friends, but I just can't. Help me bros.
>>40408146
Yeah I know how you feel, I've been having a lot of trouble getting (you)s tonight.
In all seriousness you should talk to a therapist about this shit, this isn't normal function. Or you could just decide to take the plunge and after the girl makes an advance towards you adopt a the die is cast type attitude
>>40408146
I have kind of the same issue. Except it's usually 6/10s or below who give me the most attention. They'll easily show a lot of interest and I know I can go for a make out or make some other move but I won't because they're not very attractive.
On a few occasions, I've been so drunk that I don't care that they're not hot so I make out with them anyways, and thus I've gone from being a kissless virgin to regular virgin. This being super drink trick may work for you too
>>40408168
I can't see one. I've done it before and it doesn't help.
>>40408184
I've tried that too. No matter how drunk I get, I still pussy out. The furthest I've ever gone was with molly, cuddling with a gorgeous girl. She wanted me so bad but I failed to take it further.
It's mid February, why am I still seeing NYRs at my gym?

If they are still there in mid-march, then they are probably serious about it. Some of them will still fall off but hey man give them support.
The people that didn't actually mean it at all are gone, the people that are kinda-serious are still sticking around, and soon you will have the one's that are really trying.
Support them, this year can be great for them. Teach them things. Just hold on 2-3 more weeks, if they are still there in mid-march after being there since January 1st then they are probably serious about changing themselves.
GOMAD aside. What is your milk of choice /fit/ and why?
bumping with Coconut milk.
>rich in fiber, vitamins C, E, B1, B3, B5 and B6 and minerals including iron, selenium, sodium, calcium, magnesium and phosphorous.
>Medium-chain-triglycerides.
>puss free
>>40408090
*pus free.
Coconut milk tastes like shit. Real milk is the only answer.
>>40408090
I suck your moms milk and it tastes great you should probably try it too
What's your shower routine like?
What soaps and moisturizers do you use?
>>40407949
Shampoo my hair then i rub the soapy bubbles on my nuts.
I enjoy a minty taint to start the day.
lather my dick and balls in soap and rinse the rest of my body, I have ichthyosis vulgaris and body wash dries out my skin
random suave shampoo.
>on a diet
>steadily losing weight
>suddenly weight/fat stagnates for a week or more, even after reajusting for new tdee and exercising lots
why does this keeps happening? water retention?
ease off diet for 5-7 days. eat at maintenance or slightly above so your body stop its starvation mode.
>>40407937
36 hour refeed
LBM (in kgs) X 20 calories of carbohydrates
keep protein and fats extra low
works every single time
