why are sports dying
>>40117501
generals ruined /sp/
Watersports are more popular in Germany and Japan than ever :^^)
How can people enjoy sports year after year?
I loved sports as a kid, from like 8-15. Then I grew out of it. Now 30 and my brother is still just as obsessed with sports as he was back when we were kids.
I just don't get it. I'd rather lift.
I get light headed and nauseous every time I lift or do more than mild cardio. I've been going to the gym regularly for over a year now. What could the problem be?
I've been to a cardiologist and they said I was fine, I know it's not dehydration cause I drink a gallon a day minimum.
>>40117386
a gallon of water a day is retard shit
Bump. Been having a similar problem lately too. Really messes with my workout since I can't do more than 2 types of lifts without getting a headache
>>40118148
I've been making sure to drink a ridiculous amount so I could say for sure whether or not dehydration was my issue because that's the #1 thing google says.
what in the fuck happened do this dude? he sounds like the biggest arrogant better-than-you attitude douche bag now
>>40117296
>tfw you google elliot hulse wife
that's because he is
Nigga took a year off YouTube and came back even more delusional. You'd expect the opposite to happen, no?
Ordered this month's 5 lb tub of Gold Standard protein and, rather than the normal Double Rich Chocolate, mistakenly got Extreme Milk Chocolate. It's so sweet I'm losing my mind and hit up GNC for an emergency replacement. Vanilla Ice Cream is still too sweet though...
Considering trying out either Mocha Chocolate or Chocolate Mint before returning back to Double Rich Chocolate...
What do y'all like to get though?
Extreme milk chocolate tastes like nesquick. fucking best flavor
>>40117057
Also, normally I make my shakes with 1% if it matters.

How's my GSLP with accessories /fit/?
Monday
2x5, 1x5+ Press / Bench (alternating)
2x5, 1x5+ Chin-Up
2x5, 1x5+ Squat
2x12 Lateral Raise
2x15 Calf Raise
Wednesday
2x5, 1x5+ Press / Bench (alternating)
2x5, 1x5+ Pull-up
2x5, 1x5+ Deadlift
2x12 Curl
2x15 Calf Raise
Friday
2x5, 1x5+ Press / Bench (alternating)
2x5, 1x5+ Row
2x5, 1x5+ Squat
3x6-8 Dips
2x15 Calf Raise
Damn, that's one hot grandma
>>40116837
2x5, 1x5+ deadlift is a problem, when you have some decent weight on the bar doing a heavy 3x5 with deadlift is really hard to recover from (even moreso if you AMRAP last set)
I dislike AMRAP in general in a program like this, you are trying to make session to session progress on squats and deadlifts but you are creating a lot more fatigue for not a lot more volume with the AMRAP
The squat volume is just fine, any more deadlift volume than 1x5 while you are trying to progress squats twice a week is going to be tough, and the bench/press volume is still insufficient
consider instead
Monday and Friday
Bench 3x5, take some weight off and do 2-3x8-10
Squat 3x5
+accessory work
Wednesday
OHP 3x5, 2-3x8-10
Deadlift 1x5
RDL 2-3x8-10
+accessory work
on friday's session you can emphasize chest/tricep work, BBer type shit tends to really help with pressing/benching and you can recover from it by the time monday rolls around
>>40117060
Yeah it's ont 1x5, fuck I forgot to edit the deadlift. Anyway I would follow your advice man, thank you very much.
Anyone take "natural" supplements for mood disorders or mental illness in general? Been thinking about trying to supplement with St. John Wort but been hearing mixed things about it.
Anything for focus/concentration as well?
I can kinda relate. I'm working on beating my anxiety, and I've been taking Omega 3, B vitamin, and E vitamin supplements. Also started eating better. I've noticed I've felt better, but still dealing with anxiety.
I still need to improve my sleeping habits and need to get active again.
What's a good workout to get back into things?
i had pretty bad depression as a kid and bipolar. ive tried to off myself twice to no avail.
at around 18 i got a regular psychologist and got some meds. havent been depressed in years its awesome. i'd say seek professional help and explain what you're going through to your friends or family

COMBAT SPORTS GENERAL
>Why start learning?
Defend yourself without going to court for a manslaughter charge.
It's fun as fuck, and a way to entertain yourself without vidya.
It's non-boring cardio.
>What start learning?
If you're interested in striking arts, try boxing, or Muay Thai if you're less interested in mobility, head movement, but more interested in learning elbows, knees, and kicks.
>But grappling?
BJJ schools are the easiest to come by, but wrestling is going to give you the most control on the ground, while also letting you decide to stay standing if you don't want to be taken down.
Catch wrestling is for sick cunts, if you can find a gym for it.

>LIFTING FOR COMBAT SPORTS
You're going to want to develop explosive ability for high reps, especially in your lower body. Do something like Westside for Skinny Bastards III
https://www.defrancostraining.com/westside-for-skinny-bastards-part3/
That's
MONDAY – Max-Effort Upper Body
TUESDAY – Dynamic-Effort Lower Body
WEDNESDAY – Off
THURSDAY – Repetition Upper Body
FRIDAY – Max-Effort Lower Body
SATURDAY – Off
SUNDAY – Off
Be wary of pseudoscience regarding martial arts (not just trad martial art kata faggotry).
While routines with high-volume pull ups and dips have their uses, even Western boxers are notorious for things like chugging their own piss.

Bumping. Am a powerlifter but /fit/ needs these kind of threads instead of /pol9k/ shit.
Ive been getting into boxing recently and started sparring too, but i always find myself becoming really sluggish in the 3rd round, any advice on how to build that type of stamina?
Give me one good reason why I shouldn't hop on dat der protons. Is natty lifting a pointless endeavor?
I've been thinking about riding my bicycle latelt
ON Gold Standard milk chocolate pretty much did that to me in ~8 months.
He could do that In like a month to be honest. Just cut and lower bodyfat, get a tan, and get a pump and flex abs
you must teach me to lift a thousond ponds
>be Eddie Hall
>Swim 4hrs a day for 10 years
>lift one day
>bench 4 pl8 Natty aged 17
>become pro strongman
>get fat
>take tren
>eat 10,000 kcal per day
>deadlift 1000lb
>>40113991
yeah pretty much this
just be a one in a billion genetic freak and then dedicate your life to lifting the heaviest thing
>>40113890
Was it ever proved that the weight was actually 1000 lbs?
Anyone starting to feel sorry for him?

Currently being stalked by Fitmisc autists because he told a couple of white lies
Nah our boy Hemingway brought it on himself.
He did a ton of lying to try to gain respect and admiration. It failed. Now his channel is basically dead and he will forever be seen as a cringey meme.

John?
i'm sorry man, i just find it really hard to get some sleep most of the time.
Is it possible to make gains as a poorfag? I have approximately 30 dollars left over each week for food and I live in canada so meat and dairy is expensive
I want to start lifting but the only thing I can really afford to eat is ramen noodles and cheap pizza pockets
Make a budget figure out where you can save money cause your probably wasting some on muh luxuries
>>40111912
I don't have any luxuries, my rent is 975 and I make 1200 a month
>>40111923
so move somewhere cheaper
