Hellu,
I'm doing this HIIT workout on a stationary bicycle here at home, I want to prolong my lactic acid in the legs and to endure much longer.
The questions is however, how long, how often should I do the workout? Atm I do it every 2nd day and. Warmup for 10 minutes and then I work with high load for 30 seconds, rest 30 seconds, repeat that 15 times perhaps.
Sure I have noticed improvement but I don't know if I'm doing it all wrong or not.

That's pretty much it. In my 20's I did hiit 5 days/week with no issues. You might get bored though. Also if you aren't trashed in less than 20 min, you aren't going hard enough.
>>
>>39692326
5 days a week seems excessive?
>>
>>39692353
I did it in a pool so my joints didn't take a toll and my body seemed just fine. But yeah it's considered excessive by most.
Anyone one else here feel an obligation to help the "autistic" kids with lifting in high school? I'm only asking because I used to be those kids about two years ago and no one really helped me out.

Not specifically, but helping to elevate those less fortunate than you are is a leadership (i.e., 'alpha') quality.

Nah.

So oatmeal supposedly is good for gains, I wanna keep eating it but it's just so disgusting for lack of a better word, how do you guys eat your oats?
I eat mine right now with some yoghurt and a banana mashed through but the the taste it leaves in your mouth is just awful

Cook them in milk instead of water and add a tiny bit of nutella
If you're feeling extra gay add bananas and cinnamon

are you lifting or doing HIIT?
>>
>>39692106
just lifting
>>
>>39692113
lifting will gain you strength and mass depending on your exercises. if you want to lose weight keep doing what you're doing and calorie counting, but just add HIIT training twice a week in replace of weights. The fat will melt off you in no time, just you need to push yourself because HIIT makes you want to commit suicide if you're new to it.

Why should/n't I replace Conventional Deadlifts with Sumo Deadlifts?
10 Posts / 3 Images

Because switching between both will help you get better at two movements and build more muscle
>>
>>39692073
Because sumo looks gay m8
>>
>>39692073
because the one (conventional) focuses more on lower back and hamstrings/glutes and u can guess what the other (sumo) focuses more on then
I'm trying to get my mile time down to 5 minutes. Any experienced runners have any advice for what exercises help best with endurance?

ITT: Post Interesting Facts
--
Keep a dream journal. It improves recall, and activities practiced in dreams are shown to be almost as effective as reality.
Vitamin D is probably a meme if you're not getting enough vitamin K.
If your energy levels are low, get more protein. There's an amino acid that produces NAD, which is shown in studies to reverse aging by providing energy.
Low-rep routines could more efficiently bulk because of the types of muscle fiber.
Calories expenditure vs income is probably a meme for bulking because we already have fat stores, and nitrogen positivity is the main tell for development.

Flexibility can increase size potential by expanding the fascia.

None of these are facts, what the fuck are you talking about?
>>
>>39692691
Dream journal is common knowledge.
Energy comes from protein, because carbs aren't necessary.
Low-rep maxes is documented.

Squat and/or do not overextend the knee. Pull up rather than back.

Weight on heels, feet pointing outwards, knees not locked out.

What would you do in my situation?
I work from home/remotely and no real need to sit in an office all day. I've been working from home, and not too sure what to do anymore, been in the house for the past three days, just don't have a reason to go somewhere, do some of you just go on a drive at night? I don't really have a need to just go somewhere, tfw, been in the house for three days, sit at home, work, eat, sleep repeat. I'm getting tired of this life

Are mushrooms a /fit approved food?
If so, how do you usually prepare them?

I usually saute them lightly and then add them to omelets. Great source of micros with very few calories.
>>
Yes: low in calories, reasonable amount of minerals, cheap, easy to cook
God mode: sauteed in butter or oil with onions
Throw them in soups or stews, put then raw on salads, make an omelette and put them in with spinach and onion, or make stuffed mushrooms, maybe buy a portabella and cut into strips and sautee (they come out almost tasting like meat)
The general tastes of food are sweet, sour, salty, and bitter/astringent, and the fifth is what the asians call umami , or savory and hearty. Mushrooms when sauteed fit into this category and contribute to mouthfeel.
>>
>>39691921
you shouldn't eat mushrooms raw,
they need to be cooked to destroy toxins in them

can't do it without your legs. And if you could timestamp that would be nice, just so we know you're not some pathetic loser who pretends to be a grill on the internet so you can jack off to the perverted responses you get while you fantasize about muscular men treating you like a cumrag
>what would you boys do if you saw the girl in the picture who is definitely OP at the gym
I would follow her around, stare at her butt while she's working out. THen follow her back to the locker room, wait for an opportunity when she's changing/showering, then snatch her panties.
If she doesn't change/shower at the gym, I'd follow her back to her home, sneak inside her bedroom window, and wait until I have a chance to snag her panties then

>Hot water knob? Haven't touched it in months. I'm actually currently going through the process of having it uninstalled from my plumbing, they should be coming out sometime next week. I had to list a reason(s) on the work order as to why I am requesting my hot water knob to be removed and discarded. Would you care to hear the reasons? Well stay tuned friend. 4 reasons:
>1. Discipline
>2. Mental toughness
>3. It raises my testosterone
>4. It makes me feel like a mighty viking about to go to war!
>My property manager was initially questioning my reasons, but I explained to her that by taking cold showers I am actually able to develop discipline and mental toughness. After a long and heated (note that I needn't anything heated, especially my water) debate, I was able to convince her to put the work order in. Now I'm living a great life, warm water free. I even started forcing my gf to take cold showers with me. I refuse to date an inferior female, and I explained to her that if she can't learn to accept and love cold showers as I have then we really have no business being together anyways.
>She's already received a black mark for questioning my NoFap practices stating that she wants my seed and wishes me to release my seed. Should she continue in this non-stoic fashion then I don't see us lasting much longer.

I can't get the form right for deadlift, squat and bent over row no matter how many articles of videos I watch or practice with low weights.
My lower back is killing me.
Idk how the fuck to get it right.
I'm a friendless man so I don't have any way for someone to watch me and correct my form with tips.
Fucking pissed I don't want to be a curl bro or do cardio or bodyweight shit. But my back won't last with bad form.
But I had to keep decreasing my 5RMs every time I go to the gym is that a sign my form is correcting itself? With better form it would make sense I could only do lower weights. Because I weigh the same and nothing else has changed.

I always make it a point to keep my back straight and not to push through the front of my feet or atleast this is what the weight training coach in high school told me to do
