So what does /fit/ think about the Dragonfruit?
my tongue and lips turn hot pink whenever i ate them
>>42685244
Expensive, bland, a hassle to eat, you'd think something like that would be healthy for you.
>>42685452
Wtf it's bad for me? Was thinking about eating one today.. guess i'll go for the strawberries then
Any downside to these? They have 38g of protein per cookie and are pretty cheap. Is there anything wrong with me eating a shit ton of these everyday to make sure I get enough protein?
Thats £1.20 per cookie on sale
Not super cheap desu
>>42684567
Most of the proteins are from collagen (which is shit since it lacks 4 essential aminos) and the rest of the ingredients are meh, so they're really not worth it
I was in line at one of my local "health" food stores and some dumb bitch bought like 12 protein bars for 50 bucks
What the fuck
I accidentally farted and a couple minutes later a guy winked at me while I was squatting. Did he smell my fart? I was too embarrassed to finish my set of squats properly after that and I left. Now i can't go to the gym at that time because he might see me. I don't know what to do.
>>42684372
he did

I started lifting 6 months ago and I did not gain a single fucking pound of muscle, but gained 27 lb of fat.
I lift 3 times a week, here's my schedule.
Day 1: kinda like a warmup before the big day
5x8 girl pushups
70 crunches with strap ( can do 50ish without it)
Standing above my head for 30 seconds(couldn't even get into position before so doing progress)
Various planks for 20 minutes
Day 2:
Bench press 3x20
Weighted bench press 5x5
Dumbbel flys 3x15
Barbell flys 3x5
Break of 20 min
Chest dips with gloves 2x15
OHP 5x5
20 mins of various planks again
Day 3:
Deadlift 3x12
Squat 3x8
Weighted dumbbell curl 3x12
Weightless spider curl 4x25
Please give me legit advice to improve myself I'm at the point of a mental breakdown.
My left wrist also hurts from benching too heavy but I don't want to stop benching, any way to reduce pain?
>bench press 3x20
Is this bait?
>>42685529
Listen to me :)
Keep a notepad of every single thing you do in the gym to make gains, u can't go into the gym lift random weight every time sometimes lift less sometimes lift more etc. You can't do that.
For example do this
Every single time u bench, write the weight you use and how many reps and sets. The next time you bench, read what u did last time and do more, add a few more reps per set or up the weight.
Change your bench press to 3x5 or 5x5 and work in the 5-8 rep range.
Week 1 you did
100lbs 3x8 every set yok made 8 reps
So
Week two
Now up the weight to 105 or even 110 and get 3x5 if u can. If u only get 2 or 3 reps on the last set, come back next week and get 4 or 5 and just progress man

Apply this to every exercise
powder recommendations?
been using pic related but it's a shitty supermarket brand, looking to extend myself.
>>42684340
>Optimum Nutrition (ON)
>Myprotein
>ESN (if you're in Germany)
Optimum Nutrition had the highest actual protien content when brands were investigated at 90percent i believe. It also mixes and tastes very good. You definitly cant go wrong with it but there are better tasting brands with shittier ingredients.
Just check out the ingredients for whey protein. I use optimum nutrition, pretty high calorie and higher carbs than I'd like but it's cheap. Just make sure you clean your shaker out immediately after you're done with it otherwise it will fucking pong
i'm just started gaining, so which PROTEIN POWDERS are better?
>>42685357
The cheap'ns
The cheapest. Also you want neutral flavor
>>42685576
>>42685583
>MyProtein unflavored
This, for me, but both whey and casein..
/fit/ I can't fall asleep for shit. It's been going on for a few weeks now. What the FUCK do I do? I just want to fall asleep like I used to GODFUCKINGDAMNIT
Same here op. Maybe if we cuddle together we can help each other fall asleep. no homo
Stop giving a fuck. The more you look at the clock, and worry, and get anxiety before getting into bed ("Here we go again") the worse it'll be.
Just let go. Say 'Fuck it'. If you get one hour sleep, whatever.
you have sleep anxiety, you can't fall asleep because you worry that you might not be able to fall asleep. I tried melatonin, audiobooks and all sorts of things to get sleepy, but what worked for me was this
>upload a few episodes of some cartoon to your phone (I watch rick and morty or old simpsons)
>go to sleep, turn the lights off, set phone brightness to the lowest
>put 1 earphone into your ear
>start watching the cartoon
I usually fall asleep while watching third or second episode. When you're watching stop worrying about everything else and just focus on the cartoon
Five, six or seven foot bar and why?
Why is there even a choice?
The longer bar is just room for more pl8s. The 5ft is probably a 15kg bar. You are probably retarded, also.
Five foot for manlets
Six foot for wymen
Seven foot for men
>>42684296
olympic bars are 7ft, anything else isn't an olympic bar
Just heard about Lou farrigno being appointed as head of trumps health and fitness council. What's /fit/'s take on it?
Inb4 >Trump wants to legalize steroids and drug people!!!
Stay mad natty dyel
And I fucked up the greentext :(
>>42685140
steroids are legal in every civilized country
>>42685140
Not a politics fan but that's a baller move
>Mandatory serratus training days for PE classes
Does /fit/ have any advice on how to not be a butthurt insecure faggot? I want to be a carefree dude who doesn't give a fuck but that gets pretty hard to do sometimes. Any tips, advice, stories?
smoke weed
Just do it.
>>42684277
It requires practice. Just remember that there is no "you" and that who you are is dictated second by second, not by past actions.
It may be characteristic of you to get vocal about politics but try doing the opposite for a while. Try laughing at jokes you don't think are funny.
Just fake it my dude. It's the only way.
Why do I look like a skinnyfst DYEL on pictures but ripped in the mirror ?
And why do I look fit in some pictures but vomit inducing skinnyfat in others ?
How am I even supposed to know how I truly look?
because mirrors usually have overhead lighting, which is the best type of lighting for seeing every detail and looking like a shredded cunt
and then IRL you have lighting coming from different directions, sometimes it comes from a direction that obfuscates a lot of detail and you look like shit, you can find pics of almost anyone looking mediocre
>>42685170
So which one is true mirror or pics
>>42685254
Are you retarded?
Aight /f/it bros I got big cheeks what's the best way get rid of them or am I doomed

Start at 2000 UI. Work from there.
Four scoups
Does John Haack roid?
He claims anyone in his weight class (83kg) or below would almost definitely be natty because it would be almost impossible to be at that low weight on drugs.
But then look at his stats for 5'9" 83kg:
200kg Bench
298kg Squat
315kg Deadlift
natty or not, he isn't where he is because of steroids
he is where he is because he's unbelievably talented and has outlier genetics for strength, you could take all the shit in the world and you would never get remotely close
>>42684981
roids trumps genetics
>>42684981
very incorrect
