hi im going for a thicc look so i was wondering, for my upper body
should i use high rep ranges and keep adding weight or use typical rep ranges and stay at a low weight? I want to go as heavy as possible for my lower body so that's not the problem
>>40023915
At the end of the day, it doesn't really matter. You may *slightly* build a bit more muscle using the high rep ranges, though, but it's negligible.
If you want thicc, just add a shit load of volume + eat.
>>40024051
yeah this. Just be careful with your surplus though, I was not really tracking carefully and somehow got to 25% bf. Still kinda had abs, but I felt fat
>>40024286
that sounds like a nice amount of thickness
Please no rude comments/photoshop - honest opinions only.

Lmfao. Powerlifting is autistic. You do 3 lifts, with the smallest ROM, with ridiculous technique, and wear equient 2 sizes too small. Strongman is where it is at.
do you ever go to the gym with your girfriend or other female consort? how does it compare to your normal workout
>>40023846
Girls need more recovery time and usually can't keep up intensity... hence the reason why men are primarily in combat positions in the military.
I'm not trying to take a stab at all women, but my workout is simply shit when I go with my girlfriend compared to when I'm lifting with my bros.

I see his mushroom tip

>that feeling when you see a big lunk in the gym that is doing his routine and you see his bitch in the tight clothing following him everywhere he goes and doing whatever he tells her to do
Do you wish a girl would stalk you in the gym, /fit/? Why do the gym fuck's girlfriends all do this?
i do not want to lift with anyone else except maybe one of you guys

How do I massage this knot out?
>>40023746
Foam roller with teeth on it or a tennis ball
>>40023785
got both, got even better: lacrosse ball
but like, how? and where? and what do I target? how do I know if I'm hitting the right spot?
>>40023805
I mean if its a knot you'll be able to tell when you put pressure on it use your fingers and massage the muscles around the area that's bugging you and you should be able to target the spot
you are now manually breathing and blinking

>>40023631
They're not, don't do them.
>>40023631

>>40023631
The best builder for overall strength. The only people who don't squat are crippled or pussies.

I've heard a bunch of people claim that sea salt is healthier than table salt because it's richer in minerals.
Does that actually make a difference or is it just bro science?
There's 0 difference in health effects. Different types of salt may have different grain sizes which can affect the flavor of dishes.
It's the same thing. Stop listening to retards who pay 10$/oz for salt.
>>40023609
broscience
take a multivitamin if you want more minerals
just buy kosher salt
do not use iodized salt it tastes like ass

He made height gains and doesn't have to compensate for being a manlet anymore.
All is good.
>>40023478
His dad pushed him too hard and he burned out. Friendly reminder to push your kids but don't live through them.
Inability to match skin tone in photoshop?
My best guess.
Hi /fit/, I've started a new routine of PPL today (before I was a dumb bellend who did 5 mile cardio and just some dumbell weights) When I was doing bench presses/overhead tricep extensions or other push routines, I was progressively failing to finish my sets. (like 10 10 8 5 0) for each of them. Am I doing it correctly or should I lower weights to just complete the entire 5 sets?
Thanks in advance.
lower weight, fix form, and work back up to that weight finishing each set
also if you're cutting or not getting enough calories, stop that.
>>40023479
that's what I was kinda confused about. Right now i'm using my fitness pal to log in my calories. I'm set as 1500. For example, today my intake of of meal was 1557 and I exercised 600 off. does that mean i'm cutting my calories around 1000? or is it still 1500 because I ate 1557?
>>40023515
It depends what that 1500 is based on, if it's using ~600 calories/day as activity then you'd be going over.
If not, you're in a huge deficit and are probably actively losing muscle. 1500 calories is fucking nothing, especially if it's closer to 1000 net. No wonder your lifts are shit. What is your height/weight/body fat %?
>millennials sending snaps of themselves while they gym
What the hell is wrong with you lot? Weird, so weird.
