I've been working out for about 2 months now, starting from absolutely nothing (years of being a nerd and gaming all day between exams)
How am I doing? Still skeletor mode? 1/10?
From what I can actually see you look like shit. Keep up the good work.
>>39658460
Thought so. But how shit. Do I have the potential to get better or is my body weird in some way I'm not seeing?
>>39658450
Ill put this very bluntly. Its too soon to tell. Youll have to put in a shit load of time work to find out. Keep it up though. You have the potential to at least make a good otter.
Is it absolutely necessary to eat fat in order to burn fat?
I've always been a food addict but I've managed to lose nearly 100 pounds in the past 4 years by just watching my calories. I don't exercise so all of my weight loss is from portion control. The problem is that it's really difficult and I've fallen off the wagon tons of times and I'd be even slimmer now had I not.
I recently started eating what is basically a low-carb and almost no-fat diet. I just eat a bowl (2 servings) of Total Whole Grain cereal for vitamins and about 100g of grilled chicken a day. I also drink 1 soda with each sitting of chicken (which makes 2 sodas a day) which is just so I can have something that's sweet. This is where the carbs are coming from. I drink lots of water throughout the day. Fridays and Saturdays I tend to eat about 3500 calories each day so it's like a cheat weekend. Then Sunday through Thursday I'm back to eating 1200.
I'm doing all of this quite comfortably. It's easier to control my appetite and cravings this way than when I used to eat hot pockets and processed lean cuisines. It keeps me full and I have less cravings. I just want to make sure that I'm not screwing myself in the process. My goal is to lose about 30 more pounds and then see where I am after that. I'm trying to lose my love handles and lower rim of stomach fat. There's still some chest fat to lose too.

>My goal is to lose about 30 more pounds
You need fat for hormone production. Count your calories and don't do some dumbass fad diet.
>>39658456
I forgot to mention that on Fridays and Saturdays on my "cheat weekend" I usually eat nothing but fast food and chips. So I'm getting LOTS of fat on those days, albeit bad fats, but fat. Would this make up for my low/no fat during the week?
I apologize if I sound stupid as shit but this is new to me.
>>39658437
No fat is a bad idea.

I got a 6 week long winter break and not much interesting to do during it. Is there a way to build muscle/gain strength faster then starting strength that I would otherwise be unable to pursue due to lack of time?
>>39658384
Personally, id go to the gym twice a day and eat an absolute fuck load.
I'd also sleep a lot.
>>39658499
What he said. Live like you're in the hyperbolic time chamber. Eat, sleep, train.
Is there an unshopped version of OP?
Wearing a weight vest while you walk/jog/run around neighborhood is it weird and if so how so ?
first of all you look autistic as fuck because im sure youre a fatass who wears video game t shirts
also its bad for you knees and stupid
Not a fatass who wears video game t shirts but ok I see you vehemtly have hatred towards them you're voice has been heard thank you come again
That retarded Dragon Ball Z shit will ruin your body
God fucking dammit /fit/
My fucking cock is broken.
I'm 18. I have acquired qt gf recently. Was going to lose virginity to her sometime this week but she's been on her period. We do other stuff, but I can't fucking get hard. No matter what I do, I can't get past half mast for some reason.
I'm dropping porn completely, and I've stopped taking my Zoloft because I've heard it can fuck with libido.
Pls halp me :(
It's definitely the Zoloft. And you're right, probably the porn too.
There's not much else you can do other than give it a bit of time
no porn
no fapping
zinc
magnesium
lift weights
drink more water
find out if you need kegels or reverse kegels (google it, depends if you contract or relax when you are tense)
It's the zoloft. Took me months to get back to normal after getting off antidepressants (not zoloft but you get the idea)
About to start training for size instead of strength, I know this means more volume and less weight. Was thinking about most of my sets being with reps of 30,12,8,4
Does that sound ok or is it retarded. I didn't just pull those numbers from my ass but I also didn't get them from here so I'd like to know what you guys think.
ITT training for aesthetics general I guess
Try it, if you find it works for you, keep doing it, if it doesn't, keep changing things until it does
>>39658162
Doing 20 reps with baby weight isn't some magic key to unlocking huge size you fucking retard. The key is steroids. Size and strength are not fucking mutually exclusive as a natty.

>normies think this guy looks "buff"

i take a mass gainer to supplement my macro intake and i'm planning on switching from musclepharm to something else. anyone have any experience with TLabs Mass Gainer or a similar product?
I've tried doing some research but most seem like paid reviews or DYELs claiming that the product "didn't work for them" (aka misc)
>>39658093
Gainers work great. I use it to keep my caloric intake up and mix it with half n half to get even more calories. I'm still lean even while eating 3800 kcal / day.
I know that they're expensive, but are a godsendif you're taller and have a big TDEE.
(((gnc))) employee here I read through and compare prices of everything we've got in the store when I'm bored. Mass gainers are protein shakes with 200-1kish calories added and some carbs for an extra $50+++ charge. Just fucking get normal protein and add heavy calorie food to it you faggot
get normal protein and throw a fuckton of peanut butter and bananas in the blender
Which body type do you strive for ultimately? Bear mode power/stoutness, or shining physique? If you somehow have a bit of both, which do you lean more towards?
i like bearmode but im weak so it would be misguided
>>39658017
Healthymode.
>>39658017
perfection mode
'bearmode'
Why would you ever WANT to be fat? I spent like 10 years of my life fat, so close to escaping it.
Shit is retarded
How do I increase test levels?
Just be yourself :-)
>>39657903
with confidence
>>39657903
a needle and 250mg test e/wk
How to I stop being a fat fuck?
About 6 foot and 217 lbs, all fat. Should I be trying to lose weight or going straight to building up muscle

Jaguar is easily the most /fit/ animal.

>>39657554
>Pic related goes to ur town and tries to kill ur dog, wat do?
>>39657544
Jaguars are cool and all, especially because they can carry their prey up a tree with ease, but Grizzlies are much better.
