>girl reported me to the gym owner because i didnt wear deodorant and apparently i smelled bad
>the owner made me leave
I had forgotten to put on deodorant, but i figured it wouldnt matter since i had taken a shower earlier in the day.
Is this allowed? I felt like shit when the owner was walking me to the door to make sure that i left.

Is it fine to eat just a banana before running for 40 minutes? Isn't eating before running fuckin dumb?
>>40128421
you can eat a banana like 15 minutes before a run
if you eat like a whole meal you gotta wait like an hour or two

Thread-outsider asking: Is this good or bad?
used to be fat as fuck, 5'10" 280 lbs, this is current photo at 162 lbs.
I feel fat as fuck, I feel like I need to keep going. My wife says I am too small and that i have something called body dysmorphia. I am not anorexic because I eat damn near 2500 cals a day and workout 4 hours a day ontop of physical job. Can I get my fitbros and fitbrahs opinions because i dont know what to do or what to think i just stil lfeel so fucking fat.
>>40128359
Lift some fucking weights. I'm guessing your wife is a fatty if she considers you exceptionally small. Consider divorce
>>40128380
no my wife is 5'4" and 110. I think she wants me to just not be a skeletor. But after loosing 120+pounds i still think im fat and need to go down not up.
>>40128359
Honestly you are acceptable. You could walk down the beach in that and nobody would laugh at you. Men get body image issues, too. Talk to someone and see if you can get some help.
It's raining heavily today and will tomorrow. Can't go to the gym in the rain. Am I going to lose all my gains?
Nigger is your gym outdoors?
Where a hoodie and then go to gym
Do pushups, squats etc at home
Use a pullup bar if you have one
Of course you won't lose them you toboggan

I'm working on a school project and could use some help from fit.
I'm making a fictional mma event poster, and need some faces to go along with the fighters.
If you could post a pic of your face with a mean look it would be nice.
They will all be black and white and I need pics with a clear background.
And no sunglasses.
I'll post the fictional event poster here on /fit when I'm done.
I need 7 pictures.
Thank you

Leave this board and focus on your career and take her out shopping more. When you see your girlfriends eyes light when up you buy her something and she kisses you after with appreciation you will feel better. Also why not marry her.

Can you be flexible and agile being this big? How does being this big affect your cardio? (since you're lugging all that weight in muscles around...but at the same time you're fuarking strong).
Does movement speed (like, a punch or a kick, or movement response) depend on size? Stronger muscles mean faster muscles? Bigger muscles (due to strength training, denser fibers, not larger individual cells). What are the strenghts and weaknesses of being built like this?
Sorry for reusing this pic, It's the one that sparked my questions.

I'm not saying OP is the strongest ever. I just want to know how does muscle size affect stamina, agility, flexibility, contraction speed, movement reaction etc.

What am I looking at?
Listen to what Ripp says at 50:44.
He literally says what I've been asking you fucks for years you fucks kept on fucking denying.
Pretty much what ripp says : Its pointless to train specifically for aesthetics because aesthetics is all genetics, and you cannot control how you will look in regards to wanting to look like a typical bodybuilder or whatever. The only thing you can truly control is your strength through proper lifting methods, and your body-fat through diet. You cannot change your unaesthetic shitty genetics into aesthetic genetics.
After hearing this I'm fucking done with my bro-split shit, already wasted enough time doing it getting fucking nowhere with it. After a few years of bro-splitting and getting nowhere it's clear I don't have the genetics to be aesthetic, so I'm just going to focus on total strength, followed up by keeping my body-fat low. Not worrying about doing a ton of useless fucking lifts anymore that don't fucking do anything.

Alright retard, actually delude yourself into thinking that you can't do pullups to increase the size of your lats , work your deltoids to make your shoulders wider, etc.
Look like garbage, not my problem.
>don't do anything
How are you making NO progress in years? Try harder faggot
>>40127254
Link + time stamp of where Rippetoe says training specifically for aesthetics is fucking retarded because aesthetics is one of those things that you either have, or you don't have, it isn't something you can just "train". You can't "train" unaesthetic insertions etc.

He did not say that at all.
I've been dieting below tdee for 3 weeks now and doing SS at the same time. Since that time I also stopped taking coffee.
Thing is I'm 1lb heavier
what could the problem be? The worst thing is I can notice a liiiitle bit of muscle on my legs but my waist has not shrinked.
If this is water weight should I just wait it out? Is there something wrong? I'm counting my calories so that can't be it
Could it be the caffeine I stopped taking with leaving coffee?
I'm on a 600-700 caloric deficit and I'm a grill btw

>people still judge me for eating m&m's while being overweight

>people still don't think genetics are to blame
>>40127019
M&Ms are actually filled with cane sugar which is 50/50 glucose and fructose where as blueberries are 100% fructose so the M&Ms are better for you.

I made more gains on a 3x5 strength routine 3 times a week in 1 year, than I have on a high volume + training for pump + tons of isolation's after compounds training 5-6 day/week bro-split for the last 3 years.
I THOUGHT STRENGTH ROUTINES WERE SUPPOSED TO BE THE MEME, NOT BRO SPLITS.
I think I'm just going to go back to training 3 times a week on something like SS again. I just don't see the point in training 5-6 days a week, with high volume, with tons of isolations after the compounds when I don't even get any fucking results doing it.
it's true that SS is more effective for both strength and size than a brosplit if you're a beginner, but if you've been training for 3 years then SS shouldn't work and your story is bullshit.
>>40126946
> I stretched out and exhausted all my noob gains and now I have to lift like a normal person
>>40126969
>>40126975
I don't understand then, why do I make no gains from doing a bro split? or a PPLxPPL?
Stop acting like you know me better than I know myself.
After doing a few different strength routines in the 1st year I decided to make the switch to bro-style training, and I've done that for the last 3 years. The results are fucking shit. Nothing to show for it. Pretty much look the same as I did after 1 year of strength training, despite the fact I've also got an additional 3 years of bro-style training on me.
So 4 years total, but haven't changed since year 1 (after stopping the strength focused routines to do bro-style training).
Is it just possible that high reps, tons of isolations, and all that fancy bro shit, just simply doesn't work for me?
I'm just sick of wasting my time spinning my wheels training hard as fuck 5-6 days a week getting nowhere. It's legit starting to burn me out by seeing no fucking changes despite training like all the bigboys in my gym train, like compete fucking retards, but they still make gains no problem, doesn't seem to work for me though.
