If I'm 5"8~9 and 171lbs how long would it take me to get to 143lbs and what would be the best way to do it. I work as a mailman and usually walk from 2 to 5 hours at maximal speed(am always in sweats) and was wondering if there would be any point to work out or my cortisol levels would go way too high for it be worth it. Oh and the only thing I have is a one 10kg dumbbell and though of doing some kind of hiit workout but will it be worth it. I also eat as clean as possible.
Man, stop overthinking. Keep your normal regimen - drink plenty of water (always hydrated) and eat less. Easy as that.

>Man, stop overthinking.
Yeah but I want it to be as efficient as possible and really don't want to wait that long for it.
>>40201492
Wow, you sound like me, extremely autistic
Would you rather have a gf with a 5/10 body and 10/10 face or a 5/10 face and 10/10 face?
10/10 face and 5/10 body.
Every time.

Peas are incredible. Very underrated food.
i mean it's not a complete protein
i like them though
Enjoy the fart though.
But goes well with a steak and potatoes
+ 100/10 cutting food
Age - 18. Been lifting for more than a year now. Doing a little bulk of 2 months , about to cut now. Should I use BCAAs? People say it helps to maintain muscle during cut. My stomach has popped out a bit and chest is also become kinda laggy/saggy. Should I take it?
>>40201012
no, BCAA's are placebo at best
yea if alot of money
no if u dont
>>40201012
check your food intake and see if you miss any of the essential animo acids in your current diet.
if so, it might be a good idea to either supplement or change your diet to fit your needs
>tfw not the weakest bitch at the gym anymore
I guess you're not the strongest either then little bitch
>>40199627
Stronger than you
Wow this gif is good
About to get a new job that will require me to be at the gym by about 4:45 if I want to do my routine and get to work on time.
How do you keep energy throughout the day? Do you crash from pre-workout? Do you nap at lunch? Halp.
>>40198963
Sips
I sleep at a regular schedule and be 22.
wtf you talking about?
I don't take preworkout, any stimulant or caffeine. I just fucking lift at 13:30 to 15:00, shower, then go to work.
all on empty stomach.
I fast 18 hours a day, so I don't need stimulants to get motivated or carbs to get energy to lift. I have laser focus since I'm not digesting food 24/7, only late at night so my test is the highest it has ever been.
/fit/ can you tell me what's going on with my squat? My knees are coming way far forward, and it's becoming so quad dominant. How can I improve this, I want glutes for the sloots
It's fine faggot. Knees going over toes is a meme
>>40198594
Lower weight, work on form, increase weight gradually
>>40198613
It just feels wrong though, I'm getting back pain at lmao 1 pl8, there's no way I could sustain that form and go up in weight
reg gym bro. nothing interesting. Needs to shave that moustache also

Old one dead. New one up lads.
Great pic OP

Whats the best way to hit the entire trap muscle, not just the part that pops out of my neck. Deadlifts seem to be only thing that remotely hits them but I cant do it everyday.
Any suggestions? Shrugs really dont do much imo.
>>40197841
rackpulls above the knee and farmer walks
Srs. I'm tired of being that dumb meathead who doesn't even know 8x6 without thinking about it first. I only got by in high school and collage was intimidating for me so I drobbed out.
>>40197070
medfag here, i still pause on 8x6 even though I do very well on rotations and such. Don't over think it man, everyone is stupid at something.
Read books, practice logic/math.
Also it may sound like a meme answer but learning programming would be helpful because it starts you on learning how to break down problems into manageable, achievable steps that take you closer to your final objective.

Every fucking time I get with a chick and it gets to the point of sex, I fucking can almost never get hard while putting on the condom, and then if I ever do get it on, it fucking goes soft in like 2 seconds of trying to get in her. What the fuck is wrong with me and please tell me how to fix it, it literally happens with any girl I'm with and it's fucking awful, I know I could ask them to go on the pill or some shit but I'd feel safer about STDs if it's just with a short term thing or just a one night stand, so any tips or anything like that for this?

try thinking of your gymbros tight boipucci while you slip it on. Works for me.
How are those noob gains coming along anons? A thread to discuss beginner programs.
So I'm on a modified SS: on last Friday's workout I finally smashed 2pl8 bench, completing my autistic checklist 1/2/3/4pl8 for working sets. Everything on the routine is coming to a stall so after 1 more reset I think I'm ready to jump to an intermediate routine.
However before I do so I need to shred off some of the gained fat I accumulated over the course of my routine, as progression will stall out pretty damn fast on TM/Madcows on a calorie deficit, I'm going to need to make adjustments.
I'm going for a 750-800 calorie deficit with the target aim of losing 1-1.5lbs per week. I've already started cleaning up my diet, and in that respect I have no problems prepping myself, my question is how can I hang on to as much of my gains as possible...what adjustments will I need to make to my routine so my strength doesn't just tank.
Current routine: AxBxAxxBxAxBxx etc
Day A:
Squats: 150kg/330lbs 3x5
Bench: 100kg/220lb 3x5
BB Rows: 105kg/230lb 3x5
Two sets of weighted dips
Day B:
Squats
OHP:70kg/155lb 3x5
Deadlift: 182.5kg/402lbs 1x5
Two sets of weighted chins
On top of every friday's workout:
two sets of curls and x2 skullcrushers
Information on what to do is pretty scarce. Ripp advises guys who have got onto the heavier side of things to eat a paleo type diet at 3500 cals to recomp my body. As much as I respect the guy as a coach, his diet advice is questionable at best, and his diet advice is aimed at strength trainers who often don't give a shit. I'm currently sat around 25%bf and I'd like to slim down to 15% or so before bulking again, so it's not like I'm planning on smashing out some abs, I would just like to lose the belly fluff. My goal is a mixture of strength and aesthetics, trying to balance both while not being a master in either.
TL;DR Finished beginner programming, need routine advice to preserve gains on a cut.
how long did 1/2/3/4 take you?
What do you want to accomplish in your intermediate plan? Strength? Physique? Do you compete in another sport?
I've been lifting since september, but I've been doing it on and off so I haven't gotten really good gains due to injury and depression in between. My bench went from 65lbs to 115lbs 5x5, so that's something. Still skelly, but my friends and parents say otherwise.
What is the training program for the right wing safety squads?
Safety in numbers. AR15 selfies until you feel tactical.
>>40197660
well first you need to lose 500lbs
>>40197660
Don't forget to take 4 scoops of this every day
How about a /ratemyschedule/ thread?
My current one, ABxABxx
A
Squat 4×6
Lunges 3×10
Incline bench press 4×6
Chest flies 3×8
OHP 4×8/10
Dips 3xmax.
French press 3×10
B
Deadilift 4×4
Leg curl 4×8
Weighted hyperextensions 4×8/12
Pullups 4x max.
Bent over row 3×8/10
Pulley 3×10/12
Barbell curl 3×10
>>40195131
Respectable. I'd perhaps do one day as volume and one as intensity, but that's just me. Over all, looks decent. Again as a personal preference, hammer curl > barbell curl
>>40195131
>2pl8 squat
>tfw a girl squats more than you
how long are you spending in the gym per day?
>>40195131
Looks great!
I was talking about the pic, but your routine looks okay.
