Inb4 Autistic
Here's how it works:
Build a program that spans over the course of several days. Mine is a 4 day program and I'll use it as a example.
If you've played Dark Souls, you know that every time you die you have to restart at the beginning. Now take that concept and apply it to your workout schedule.
Day 1: Deadlift/Back
Day 2: Squats/Legs
Day 3: Bench/Chest
Day 4: Shoulders/Arms
You progress through each day. If you miss a day, you start back at day 1. If take a rest day, start back at day 1. Get through the cycle, add more weight.
The idea is that you're forced to go to the gym or you'll be stuck on deadlifts and squats, which are the hardest lifts, but also the best for you. You won't keep doing arms because you need to work hard to get to them.

Its a good concept but it would be better applied to specific exercises and stick per muscle group
For example: i fail something like a bicep curl on 8x3 at 50 pounds. I should have to redue this work out again until i can pass my failure point, never skipping the exercise or moving to another for that muscle until i have achieved the set. Obviously you will still need to incorporate multiple exercise per muscle group.
Its not a great a program, you are just training your body to be good at repetition specifically that exercise
I would say Dark Souls method is:
>Workout until you die
>Restart at bonfire
>Repeat

this
also I try not to die at the gym.
Feels like I get close some times on the last heavy DL sets though
How do people make friends in the gym?
I just sit quietly and do my thing. Is coming up to strangers and talking to them really a thing and am i just autistic or does the rest of you not talk to anyone as well?
My interaction with other people in the gym comes down to "how many sets do you have left?"
And ive been in the same gym for 6 months.
And also, does any of you hit on women in the gym?
*BUUUUUUUUUURRRRRRRPPP*

>>40204128
leaving your blood pressure and resting heart rate behind tbqh.
go for 0.5kg a week, anymore and it's just excess fat
t. i know.
>>40204128
nope just noob gains and fat from the GOMAD if youre not working enough. Could also be when you weighed yourself (water weight, a meal, a fat shit etc etc). No haterino or anything, just dont get too excited :)

fuck off
I was deadlifting at the gym today and this old PT came up to me and told me my form was "completely wrong" because I don't control the weight at the bottom of the rep and am just "dropping the weight"
He then proceeded to tell me that basically I'm a young retarded faggot and don't really know anything because I'm young, and that he was a powerlifter that could deadlift 600 lbs so that means he knows everything and I should kill myself
So was he wrong, or am I actually a retarded faggot and should be deadlifting 95lbs so I can completely control the weight throughout the entire movement?
>>40203225
no he's an old faggot fucker. no one does reverse contraction super control bullshit on deadlifts and you're not supposed to
>>40203225

Look at him dropping the weight! How he can do dat! He doing it all wrong he have no idea what he doing! Someone tell him! Fat old powerlifter PT better inform him!
If it's not obvious I'm fucking triggered
I'm a slightly less fat and old PT, and I used to be a powerlifter and I deadlifted 605 pounds. I say you can drop the weight.

You could try chicken hearts. Real cheap like 1 dollar per pound. pretty good and chewy
>>40202663
cook them before you eat them.
>boom
Pork tenderloin are fucking godly. Also round steak, its lean but not too dry.

Has lifting made you happier?
Somewhat.
>>40202482
No. Meditation made me more happier.
So far i just started trying to get fit about a month ago. But yeah sure
Anyone taking this?
I get extreme boners, better sleep and feel more calm.
They say it's supposed to raise test if you're lower than you should normally be.
It's pretty cheap and I don't know if its placebo or not, but I think it's working.
Opinions on Ashwagandha I guess.
Thx.
>>40202459
Pretty sure it raises test in healthy adults as well.
I took it before when I had a cheap source for the root powder, and I liked it. It definitely seemed to help me with feeling more calm and I feel like I had more energy for workouts. Not like a stimulant or anything just like I didn't wear out during the day like I normally would.
Think it helped with my sleep but I take a lot of different things to help with that
>>40202459
Exercissing and getting enough saturated fats, minerals and vitamins will raise test if your deficient.
Otherwise take steroids if you want more.
>>40202459
yeah it helps my anxiety. never noticed a test difference tho

SCOOP
MY
SHIT
what mode is this?
>>40201328
My favorite moment in all of DBZ mode. Gohan is criminally underrated.
>>40201343
agree. rewatching the entire fight right now.
>>40201351
What makes Gohan so admirable is that he isn't about that life. He doesn't crave violence. He could have been the strongest Z fighter, but he'd much rather have the world be peaceful and just study and enjoy family/friends. He's a goofball (saiyaman) and dork at heart. He's like his dad except he doesn't yearn for a fight. But fuck with those he loves, and He'll unleash a hell unlike anything you've ever witnessed. The definition of speaking softly and carrying a big stick.
I'm gonna watch it now too, anon.
