Hey /fit/! I want to share a bit of my personal story with you today in order to say thanks to the whole board and also to give hope to the desperate fatfucks lurking in the shadows here (yes I know you do exist. I was one of you) Up until approx the age of 22 I was a real thin dude, physically active but not actually workingout though.Things started to go downhill for me after I moved in with my first steady girlfriend. She wasn't a slob, but we somehow ended up spending a lot of time at home together "chilling". Activities outside of our home soon declined to going for daytrips or just a short walk. Well about 5 years later we broke up but I continued to live the life I experienced with her. My routine was pretty much 9 -10 hours of work (walking out of my office to get a coffee was the most physical action there), going home to warm shitty fastfood or eat take away food and spend my evenings with movies or videogames.
Around march 2017 I realized that I don't want to continue living my life that way. I weighed about 85 kg (187,4 pounds) at 1,77m (5,8 ft). I was upset with my shape and my life in general so I convinced myself to do something about that and start immediately. This was the time that I browsed /fit/ for the very first time and I'm absolutely sure now that the sticky here saved my life. I read it and started to plan a routine that I thought was possible to implement in my daily tasks.
I started out really slow since my body was absolutely unprepared for any average workoutload. The most basic exercizes made me sore in the beginning, something that must be totally unbelievable to a vast majority of people (including modern me). But! I lost 10 kgs of weight now by doing 30 min of real basic shit at home daily (curls, situps..) combined with some diet advices I took from the sticky as well. In hindsight it honestly doesn't even feel like I had to change that much. It was all about awareness for me. So thanks /fit/! Thanks a lot! You saved me..
well done mate
Anyone get angrier than usual after getting /fit/?
I started working out because I thought the weight loss and exercise would make me feel better. If anything, I just get more wound up and angry, whereas before I was very depressive and apathetic.
Anyone else know this feel?
>>42661327
You are starting to live your life.
I had problems with friends since I suddenly stopped taking shit from them. It wasnt intentional, it just happened.
The rise in test and confidence affects your behavior.
Use the anger let it consume you, become the alpha.
>>42661327
Yes! Especially after I started deadlifting and seriously reduced alcohol intake. I like to feel wound up and angry.
Why is it everytime I eat fast or junk food, I gain weight? I'm tracking calories with myfitnesspal and always stay within the correct amount of calories yet if I eat just one cookie (within allowed calories), I undo 2 days of hard work? In the pic, any fluctuation is when I ate a Subway sandwhich or just a cookie or a small shake or a burger when I left myself 1k calories to eat it... wtf.
fast/junk food contained lots of salt, often lots of carbohydrates which cause big water retention
>>42661228
Oh so its just water, not fat?
>>42661245
eating disorder, good luck with that

What dietary changes have worked best for you? What's your secret sauce no homo?
irrelevant to everybody but me
>>42661190
Im bulking, I just finished an almost 40lb cut so I'm walking my calories back up slowly. My biggest gains goblin is binging after sex because I'm actually getting laid now, so I'm glad to be finally allowed a surplus
>>42661190
I'm a college student with a meal plan so I eat terribly.

This'll be a disappointing thread
>>42661131
My first thought would be to clean the mess up
not take a photo
Having some serious trouble getting back into a routine. My BF is like a freaking tornado in the morning and I can't seem to get out of here before him. I used to wake up at 5am just to get out of here before he woke up.
Also dealing with some serious DOMS. Hobbling around.
How do you get back into it?
By giving the tornado a quick bj
Just gotta take it a week at a time, after 3 or 4 weeks it will become habitual job done.
DOMS is shit, I started up again after a few years off and did a full-body boxing workout, was crippled for days after that and couldn't sleep because of the pain.
All better now though and the n00bgainz are motivating af

make sure you're eating healthy, sleeping, working out and not stressing, and get another test. if it's still bad, just hop on roids.
>>42660895
my diet is fine and i sleep like 8-9h
What symptoms did you have? Has this surprised you?
When did you realize Rip was right all along?
generally the longer someone lifts the less rippetoe kool aid they drink and the more they realize how mediocre his programs are
>>42660848
Programs are fine and really good when isolations are added. But fuck is there anyone worse when it comes to diet advice?
>>42660876
no, they are not "really good", they're mediocre at best

who cares if you have no work capacity or hypertrophy and have a shit time transitioning into intermediate programming we need you strong tomorrow for football lol
lol deload 10% and work your way back up even if accumulated fatigue isn't the reason you stalled on your bench/OHP and insufficient volume is, definitely will work
What does /fit/ think of martial arts as a method of getting /fit/ ?
gud enuff, you'd be working alot harder in any martial arts gym as appose to a regular gym anyway
Youd g3t better at said martial art by also working out but its also good
>>42660810
Fine as long as you don't do a meme martial art.
Hey /fit/, I know this is kinda weird to post but its an anonymous mongolian scribbling cave so what the hell.
My mother is fat, she's simply not getting any exercise, she stands and works every day for two shifts and she doesnt have the time to eat reasonably and eat well. All would be great if my dad wasnt fired recently because younger workers + pension. So I recently ordered my supplements on MyProtein and by chance received a 35% off coupon. Since I already planned to help my mother lose weight through vitamins and fruit, I was maybe thinking if anyone had some idea what to get on that specific site, to help her lose weight, by I dunno, some weight loss whey or protein bars of vitamins. so help a /fit/izen out?
>>42660497
If anything helps she's 54y, 160cm tall, 80kg. She works until 2 pm in the school, then tutors from 4 pm to 9. Shes feeling okay, but always tired and unhappy for gaining weight, so I need something to help her lose the fat, but keep the energy and nutrients intake.
Can you gain muscle mass with just bodyweight workouts or do you need to be training with proper weights?
>>42660490
fuck off you dumb piece of shit
do any of you know any exercises to increase sex drive? i've been doing push ups, no help yet
>>42660430
>increase calories
>zinc
>l arginine
>tribulus
>have at least 1 rest day a week
enjoy your diamond boners. be careful with the tribulus, or you will struggle to go 10 minutes without thinking about sex
not even a shill, shit takes over my life so I have to be careful with it
>>42660593

>>42660416
