Yeah ok dude
are you aware that eating at a calorie surplus every day is literally aging you and killing you faster?

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3370421/
Telomere length shortens with age. Progressive shortening of telomeres leads to senescence, apoptosis, or oncogenic transformation of somatic cells, affecting the health and lifespan of an individual. Shorter telomeres have been associated with increased incidence of diseases and poor survival. The rate of telomere shortening can be either increased or decreased by specific lifestyle factors. Better choice of diet and activities has great potential to reduce the rate of telomere shortening or at least prevent excessive telomere attrition, leading to delayed onset of age-associated diseases and increased lifespan. This review highlights the role of telomeres in aging and describes the lifestyle factors which may affect telomeres, human health, and aging.

>Caloric restriction has a protective effect on chromosomes in mice
A sustained lowering of food intake over time results in an increase of telomere length -- the ends of chromosomes -- in adult mice, which has a protective effect on the DNA and genetic material.

"Fasting for as little as three days can regenerate the entire immune system, even in the elderly, scientists have found in a breakthrough described as "remarkable".
Although fasting diets have been criticised by nutritionists for being unhealthy, new research suggests starving the body kick-starts stem cells into producing new white blood cells, which fight off infection."

""Most guys think nothing bad will ever happen to them. But you watch. You'll be seeing more and more serious heart problems, and worse, once these guys hit 40."
– Mike Matarazzo, pro bodybuilder
Matarazzo had triple-bypass open heart surgery at 38, a heart attack at 41, and died at age 47 while waiting for a heart transplant.
He was at his competitive peak in his early-30s, when "mass monsters" dominated bodybuilding, and he claimed to eat up to seven pounds of red meat per day at his biggest."

I need help guys. The REC center of my uni is closed until January 2 so access to a barbell is gone until then. I'm going to be hopping around apartment gyms for free and using dumbbells for whatever I can and make machines a last resort.
How heavy should each dumbbell be if I lift a total of (don't laugh, I just started lifting):
>Bench: 150 lbs 3x5
>OHP: 85 lbs 3x5
>Squat: 165 lbs 3x5
>Deadlift: 175 lbs 1x5
I'm worried about how to get my squatting and deadlifting in for the week since I don't know if its possible to do them with dumbbells. I have access to a leg press though, but it probably won't be the same
>>39744100
Are you seriously so insecure about your body you can't even go two weeks without lifting? It's no wonder you're still a virgin.
>>39744124
I'm not insecure, I just feel a sense of guilt not working out when I can. Besides, I don't want to bulk when I'm not even lifting. I need keep those muscles working
>>39744124
Not gonna make it

Got a letter from my doctor saying my triglycerides are almost in the 300's. I've got two months before my next appointment to get it lower. What are god tier foods for lowering them? What else can I do to lower them (besides losing weight, 5 months into a cut)?
On a somewhat related note, I'm allergic to poultry and obviously can't have red meat as my main source of protein, what is some god tier fish I can eat for protein that doesn't taste like ass and isn't too expensive?
>>39743426
STOP EATING SHIT FOOD
/thread
How much soda and or alcohol do you drink ?
drastically cut out soda & highly processed carbs.

>eat like shit for years
>expect to be healthy in 2 months
Fish doesn't taste like ass, you are just trained to eat sugary carb filled foods.

Not the guy in the red, the fat one in the back row - blue and brown tie.
He's looking at the guy in red wishing - fucking wishing he was that 'skinny'.
Any before and after super fat fucks lurking?
How many years has it been since you've been /fit/?
What's the most significant life change?
Do you walk around in bropolos and Affliction or do you have a new level of douchiness?
What positive changes have you truly made as this new person? Volunteer, compassion, empathy, financial, spiritual?
Thanks

The guy I like is probably about the size of Ken Bone. I'd like to hear what guys of this size think about girls, if they ask them out, etc.
It also turns out the guy I like has a super well paying, desirable job but I didn't know that. Now I'm worried that even if I work up the nerve to approach him, he'll think I'm just attracted to his money.
>>39744743
Because you are
Why dont you rock climb /fit/? It's one of the best full body workouts you can do.
>>39743178
Its a good hobby, and addition to lifting. But it lacks in progressive overload and legs.
No thanks I don't want tendonitis.
Rock climbers are some of the fittest people, they usually have super low body fat composition and have very good cardio health due to hobbies that follow such as hiking/kayaking and most other outdoor activities.

Literally what
C'mon anon just let them be. The reason you get to use your free weights is because all the machines are the dyel-filters that keep them out. Otherwise, they'd be hoggin your weights and you wouldn't like that, would you?

Never change /fit/
So /fit/, I'm in a bind. I'm a recent college graduate looking for a job and my refridgerator recently broke down. I'm on a really tight budget so it's not like I can afford to eat out everyday, but I can't afford a new fridge either, at least not for a month or two until I get all my finances in order and find a job.
What should I do in the meantime for my diet? Any ideas guys?
What do?

Just do oats and peanutbutter. Lots of calories, keeps w/o cold.

Help me lads, I've been doing Greyskull LP and boxing training on the side and I feel like I keep failing at most lifts each and every week. I assume it's because of issues with recovery. I'm thinking about trying out -> 3x5 -> 5x3 - > 3x3 for a few months instead of deloading all the time, worth it? I will add that I run for 20-30 minutes after each training session, so it looks something like this. Also, even with 5x3 and 3x3 for example I will keep the AMRAP as the last set. I figure I get enough hypertrophy from warming up before my heavy sets with 3-4 increasingly heavy steps where the steps are 1x10, 1x8, 1x6, 1x4, 1x2 and so on.
