What the fuck do i do /fit/? Please help me, i'm really sick of being this way
>>39813313
You already know what to do, you pathetic sack of shit
>>39813329
W-what do i need to do?
Hey OP one thing my therapist has recommended to me that has really helped me have a better understanding of what makes me feel better and what makes me feel worse is tracking my daily mood.
Here is what I track:
Mood (average)
Mood (high)
Mood (low)
Sleep (previous night)
Anything notable that could have impacted your happiness?
Do people actually follow this routine? Any progress on it?
/fit/ is too autistic about routines. They're not magic. Any lifting you do with consistency is going to yield results.
It's a standard ppl except shoulders were paired with legs..

I bet you could live entirely off of just sweet potatoes and avocados every day, and it would be enough to maintain gains and be healthy.
both have almost no protein tho, maintaining gains would probably be possible with effort, but making new ones would probably be very very hard.
Add beans and maybe
>>39812658
Add any type of meat then yeah
How the fuck do I know when i'm breaking apart my muscle fibers?
Im not feeling nothing after workouts.
the micro trauma in muscles induced by lifting will result in disruption of homeostasis in your body which will require regulation from the pituitary gland to return to normal. the will cause you to have a headache
if you don't have a terrible headache after you finish lifting, the you need to lift harder
>>39812618
>after workouts
Could you just keep going? If not then you've got to be breaking down SOMETHING, right?
lift harder and lift more
IS apple cider vinegar the real deal?
Studies indicate that taking it before a meal reduces the glycemic respond by 20 to 40%.
They studies some fat japos that lost 4 lbs in 12 weeks taking a drink with 1-2 tbsp of apple cider vinegar.
What is the dealio?
Any success stories on here with weight loss + apple cider vinegar?
>>39812472
How the fuck would drinking more calories before a meal induce weight loss
Unless it causes you to eat less because gay people have no self control there's nothing here
>>39812486
*fat people
God autocorrect is retarded
>>39812472
source of the studies?
i looked up this stuff a few months ago, and found it's health benefit claims are unfounded
Do you train your rotator cuff?
Yes: great job!
No: you are a fucking fag and loser. You will never achieve a real /fit/ body without fully developing your rotator cuff.
Pros of training rotator cuff:
- injury prevention
- balanced shoulder girdle
- back A E S T H E T I C S
Cons
- none
Seriously. I have no respect for people who do not train their rotator cuffs. The rotator cuff is the single most important muscle group in the human body. Also, girls go crazy when they see developed rotator cuffs. Its like having abs on your shoulders/back. As an example, I am a 170cm manlet, I was at the pool, and girls were absolutely bewildered by the strength and development of my rotator cuff.
It doesn't matter if you are a manlet, lanklet, landwhale, pro bodybuilder, etc, if you can not externally rotate your bodyweight, you are not a man.
>>39812453
I don't know if this is a meme, but I like it.
>The aesthetics of a rotatory cuff
specifically, but for injury prevention and strength, it's really increased my numbers on bench.
Protip: do face pulls from the cable's lowest position into this pose for optimum rotator engagement.
>>39812782
I more or less did this a couple weeks ago, and my less flexible shoulder feels pretty tender send help pls
I want to eat chicken, I really do
I've just been a vegetarian since birth
> What does chicken taste like?
I want to go to a fast food place like Tim Hortons and try a Crispy Chicken sandwich or maybe the Chipotle Chicken wrap. I just want some type of taste before I go for it, so can you tell me what it tastes like?
>>39812054
it tastes like chicken
>>39812085
/thread
There is nothing a vegetarian would eat to compare to it. Trust me though it is delicious.
Can I reach ottermode with only adjustable dumbbells and a bench? Also I'm a 5'5 Grand Duke of manlets so I've heard muscle gain is easier for someone like me.
>>39812010
better off doing squats
>>39812010
not without roids. It's a common misconception that muscular/ripped/athletic/"swole" physiques can be accomplished without drug use. The truth is you will have to pin-up or just be happy with a slightly toned look.
>>39812010
youll be about 120 lbs ottermode and 55, just try to get some natty gains dawg it will be easy, 5' 7 manlet soldier reporting in. (I'm 175lbs)
How do i into Vlad mode /fit/?
I dont want stacy... i want lilith and lunas...
>>39812008
Follow the p90x routine and diet plan to the letter, once you finish move on to Insanity. Once you finish THAT your body should look like Vlad. At that point you don't have to do the routine every day, only when you notice some size decrease.
Headbanging and windmills for 3 hours daily,
>>39812008
publish nudes in playgirl and get really mad when you realize its mostly dudes jacking off to you
>finally hit 3pl8 squat today
Can I finally say I'm stronger than the average normie?
nobody gives a shit how much you can lift if you still look like an average overweight guy off the street
i'm not even a normie either, im just going by my own experience having lifted for many years and played part in all the different sub-cultures in the lifting arena
from my own experience, the outside normie world only gives a shit if you're aesthetic, they dont care how you get there, or how you maintain it, they just care that you look good, doesn't matter to them whether you're squatting 5 plates or 2 plates
Traditionally one would post a video of said strength feat and proceed to get shit on by /fit/ for scores of replies telling you your form sucks/isn't a legit squat etc.
>>39812092
Thad why I'm not posting my video.
Good morning'd the shit out of it but fucking hell lad I was going to get it up
What's this exercise called?
squatlifts
>>39811863
Desquat

Deathwish
I ate like 1kg of chocolate over Christmas and now I'm breaking out in pimples like crazy.
Is it because I ate a lot of chocolate?
>dog
>chocolate bar

>>39811760
>literally poisioning your doggo
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>39811760
No worries, chocolate should have the same effect on you it has on the dog.
Are there any good exercises with this bar or is it a meme?
Seems kinda long for a curling bar but 21's are GOAT
>>39811747
Preacher curls for biceps, overhead extensions (lying down) for triceps
>>39811747
Skullcrushers & preacher curl
I forgot to do one exercise today... why did I not check my notebook?.... PLEASE KILL ME...
Specially on back day, It`s hard for me to tell if the muscles are working or not.. and it was my lat iso exercise
>>39811707
>It`s hard for me to tell if the muscles are working or not.

>the back day
