Ways to make my lower abs pop out more? My abs look more like a 4 pack right now.
Engage your entire core.
Or do leg raises or something who fucking cares anymore.

Counting calories vs low carb
> post your experiences
>>40180096
Low carb helps me maintain a lower calorie count.
I've always lost bodyfat when I've used a calorie deficit regardless of carbohydrate intake.
Your goal should be
1.5g to 2.0g/kg protein
1.0g/kg fat
Rest of calories into carbs; this here determines your final total calorie intake.
why not both ?
Most beginners have no idea about the foods they eat as far as macros & calories.
I get triggered when I see these diets where you are supposed to buy packaged food. You should really be learning about what foods have the qualities that you want. Not just becoming dependent on some prepacked meal.
I'm sick since 5 days and I was 75 kg's before.
Now I hit 80 kg and I'm confused how I gained so much weight in these short days.
I eat and count my calories every day. But I have no clue how this crap happened.
Will it stay like that after I got healthy or Idk.
Im rly worried bout that
H-help
Could anyone atleast help
The intersection of OPM and Dark Souls is a weird place
>"So what do you do all day long?"
I drive

Work
Weekend is mostly reading, hiking, or hunting.
What cereal does /fit/ eat?
Knock store brand of raisin bran that has less sugar.

/fit/ I recently got a torn ACL and a meniscus tear in my left leg playing soccer, what can i do to hasten my recovery ? I´m already applying ice everyday and drinking green tea but it´s been a week now and i can´t even run.
>>40179544
Dude, you're fucked.
You will never ever be the same.
You're going to have to take things slow. Over the next few months you're going to have to start doing one legged exercises, relearning how to walk and run, and look into a really really good knee brace.
>>40179584
this
probably not what you want to hear but a torn acl is basically game over.
you will NEVER be able to play soccer again.
>>40179584
>>40179642
Shit, i play soccer as a side activity but practice boxing 3 days a week, will i still be able to do it ?
Will it affect my ability to lift ?
Where does someone like me even begin? 6ft @ 9 1/2 stone. Want to get swole.
stupid fucking faggot

Is your libido in order, /fit/. I often hear about young men masturbating just a couple of times a week and that seems weird to me, I'm 29 and if I don't do it at least once a day I get random raging boners the next day.

>he can't contain his sexual energy without needing it to be released
Like a fat person who needs their McDonald's fix, or a smoker who needs his next cigarette

Do you also contain your piss and shit and hold it in for days?

I tried having sex with my gf. My dick would get erect but then get soft really fast. I tried to get it erect again, but my heart started beating really fast, and my dick didn't get hard enough to penetrate her. My dick would bend Everytime I tried to put it in. I told my gf it's probably get fault, maybe because I don't find get healthy enough (she's cute, but she needs to workout on her ass) she's a virgin so she bought it. Now unfortunately I'm really anxious. I'm in top condition m, even do cardio so this makes no sense. I'm trying nofap to increase my hardness, hopefully it works. Other ways to increase libido? Currently taking ZMA and fishoil
>lift for 6 months
>get stuck
>decide to eat at +500
>fast forward around 2 months and 5 kg gain later
>still stuck on the same weight
can't seem to increase weight on lifts and i'm slowly losing motivation. what do?
maybe try adding more weight so your body adapts to the new question
>tfw you will never even a girl
>>40179148
You have choices you can cheat or you can go for a bro-split/calisthenics thing and realize that continuously doing the same BIG LIFTS with the same fucking rep range when you inevitably hit the wall in hopes of one day going through that wall mushroom tip first is stupid.

Hey /fit/ been working out for about 3 months i was 95kg now i am 80kg. Can you guys give me a rough estimate of my bodyfat%? I don't seem to getting leaning just skinner. What do you guys think? Am i even close to getting lean? Do i still look fat /b/?
Side View.
>>40179054
You're probably around 18-20%bf and no, you are not even close to being lean
How much more weight should i loose until i start looking lean /b/?
Over the years I grew and grew stronger but I'm STILL confused at what I should DEFINITIVELY be doing to grow. I've changed my routine so often over the years that I have no idea how I got here. And even though I got much stronger and bigger, the fact is now I don't how know to streamline it.
I currently lift heavy, but when I'm done after 5 sets of heavy lifts, I just don't feel exhausted, I don't feel like Ieft it all in the gym. At the same time, I don't want to train like I used to, the volume was excruciating.
So I suppose the question is: If I am lifting heavy, and within the reps/sets that are always recommended, but I don't feel exhausted or I feel like my muscles could still do more, should I stop? Or should I do more?
In the old days, after a pec day, later that night I wouldn't be able to do a single pushup. This would be after a 22 set workout, something like 10 x 4 /45s rest, then 5x 10 /1min rest and 5x6+6 drop setting, /90 second rest.
THAT was a workout for me. But now my workout is 5 x 1-4 heavy , then 5 x 8-10 middle weight and that's it? I don't feel wrecked, you know?
Should I feel fucking devastasted every time I leave the gym? Like I left it all in there?
My stats:
Height 6`1, 186cm
Weight 225, 102kgs
Bench 290lbs, 135kgs
Deadlift 380lbs, 172kgs
Bent Rows: 270lbs, 122kgs
Squat 220lbs, 100kgs ( I dont do more than this, just more reps)
OHP 187lbs, 85kgs
BF% 22
I've tried everything over the years. I've found the exercises that work for me, now I want to maximize my effort :results ratio without necessarily being lazy.
>If I am lifting heavy, and within the reps/sets that are always recommended, but I don't feel exhausted or I feel like my muscles could still do more, should I stop? Or should I do more?
are you progressing? if yes then you are doing enough.
you are sabotaging yourself by not increasing the best compound movement out of them all. heavy squats will literally destroy you and make you feel like shit after you are done with them.
don't confuse strength progress vs exhausting the muscles via volume work
>>40178875
I dont confuse them, but I'm very close to my strength goals , which are bodyweight overhead press for reps and 300lbs bench for reps.
My goal is to gain mass and build my body, the strength is just for ego.
What I'm wondering is this kind of 10-12 set workout, half low rep and half high rep, all compound lifts with a bit of accessory, will give me the body I want EVEN if I don't feel exhausted after it's over.
>>40178846
So, you are 102kg, but bench 135, dead 172 and OHP 85 (I won't count squats).
I'm 65kg, I bench 85, dead 145 and OHP 65.
Apply yourself.
any downsides on doing heavy ohp and bench on the same day?

You could break space-time and cause the end of all existence
