Stop shilling your sups here mike
Yea fuck off mike, you cuck!
Don't be retarded. "This stuff made me sick" isn't exactly a stunning endorsement.
It's not about his brand of pre-workout specifically. It's more about pre-workout in general. Do you use pre-workout? Had any adverse reactions?
Are people who eat meat natty?
Think about it, meat contains creatine and we all know that taking creatine means you're not natty.
If you eat meat and claim you're natty, you're literally a fake natty.

Now here is a real mans question, if i go heavy on my weighted dips can I use them to completely replace bench? I hate bench so much and just love meme dips
>>39816481
if you dont like benching do something else
dips, pushups, machine pressing, db pressing etc
get BLM on this
Hey /fit/, couldn't find a lot on this so I'm asking you guys instead. How do I fix my imbalanced pecs, my lefts noticeably smaller than the right? (Ignore the dyel body, I've only been lifting for a little bit.)
Try lifting some weights, preferably at a gym followed by rest and a high protein diet.
>>39816477
Yeah good one smartass, I'm already doing that.
Lift, eat, sleep, repeat x f

Come again after few months.
So it's been 6 months now and I have been going to the gym roughly 5 days per week for an hour, doing weights. I'm seeing some results especially on my shoulders and back and legs.
I know in 3 years, I will be in shape, my issue is I still don't like to work out among a lot of people. I make sure I use the correct form for everything, but when there are a lot of people at the gym, it's intimidating. Especially if they are much bigger than me which is always the case.
Any tips?
>>39816444
Don't worry, guy. New years is right around the corner and there will be so many new people that you will see how good you are doing and be happy in a crowd.
>>39816463
I go to an all male gym, maybe I should go to one of the bigger ones, but I doubt they have as many machines
>>39816505
No you are doing it right. Do you look at the other guys a lot? Do they look around a lot?
would it be bad if i raised the heel on my pp2 for an extra 1.5-2 more centimeters? i'm having trouble with hitting a good depth at cj and snatch
no, ive seen some chinese raise the heel of their shoe
but i think you should work on your mobility instead.
>>39816421
i am but it doesn't seem to help. any specific stretches i should be doing, especially for cj and snatch bottom position?
starting to think my legs have weird proportions
>>39816334
Issues with hitting depth and butt wink are often tied to ankle mobility, contrary to what you'll read online so often.
I suggest you do some dynamic stretches for your hamstrings pre workout and some static ones after you finish.
But as I said, if you think that raising the heel would help, ankle mobility is probably the issue. Google some stretches and do them every day, once you're able to lower the angle of your foot and shins, depth will come naturally.
I like the 'American spy squat' stretch the most. You squat down as much as possible and lift your heels and then lean forward a little, until you feel the tension in your ankles building up.
How common low testosterone actually is?
Especially among teenage """men"""
>>39816322
I have gyno so I have high test which converts to estrogens, come at me.
>>39816322
In the modern day it is overwhelmingly common, in older ages I would say the vast majority.
>phytoestrogens and estrogens in water.
>phytoestrogens in shampoo
>phytoestrogens and estrogens from plastic in water bottles, essentially making tap water better for you.
>estrogens in all soy products
>acting masculine as a white male is offensive and wrong, studies have shown that masculine behavior produces higher testosterone levels
>masturbation lowers testosterone levels by 50% for hours after orgasm (not broscience look it up trolling faggots)
>a majority of adult men don't lift, up to 35% don't exercise at all, which lowers testosterone due to no need for putting on muscle.
>high prevalence of gyno due to these symptoms
>a larger amount of people actively "changing" their genders due to hormonal imbalances fucking with their brain
Ultimately the odds are stacked against us, we have to fight to remain traditionally masculine in the modern day and age. The best thing you can do is cut out all plastics, use glass to store your water, use natural shampoos, actually lift for a change, AND STOP MASTURBATING.

Hello,
what is the single best excercise for abs?
I don't have any in my actual routine, I surely work them but I want an isolation excercise.
If you could do 1 abs excercise, what would it be?
>>39816257
Either hanging leg raises or dragonflags.
Janda sit-ups
Google them
>>39816257
Hanging leg raise/knee raise for sure, can't go wrong with good form sit-ups also
I started lifting two years ago, the first year I did some basic P/P/L and Candito's linear program, and after plateauing I switched to 5/3/1 in the second year.
Now I've had two fairly shitty months, with colds and flu and other distractions and I haven't made it to the gym except for a few times. I've lost both mass and strength, probably 20% at this point, so I am basically a beginner again. Continuing with 5/3/1 seems like a bad idea, since it is sooo slow, so my question is: should I go back to some basic linear program and add 2.5-5kg twice a week? Or what would be the best strategy get back to where I was, in the shortest amount of time? Any other tips outside of routine?
Bump, there must be at least one other person on /fit/ that actually lifts?

I'm a female 5'6.5 (169 cm) tall and weigh 101 lbs (46 kg) and I would really like to begin getting fit but I have no idea where to start.
I could take a membership into my uni's fitness room but I don't even know the basic fitness routines or anything, so I would just look lost I think
Any routines to suggest ? The goal would be to tone my body and give me a butt

There's no such thing as toning.
I've said too much already.
