What are some fit cars that can be used for our fit lifestyles.
Heres my pick..the Honda hrv.
Plenty of room for bikes ..enough utility to get you around in bad weather etc etc. What do you pick?

Yup
im about to get a 97 civic dx hatchback and stance it
So, I'm 6'3" and weigh about 65 kilos.
That's massively under the appropriate weight, or so I've been told.
Qtpa2t girlfriend jokes about not being able to lift her for over 10 seconds.
Hurts my ego.
Now I want to build up my stick figure of a body.
But, sadly, can't go to fitness centers.
There's this free for all gym at the park, however.
Been going there the last 3 days, but there's a lack of proper guidance.
I've been doing random shit with weights/push ups/crunches/chin ups/dips and whatnot.
Out of nowhere today, a former gymer boy tells me that I should stick to a diet and free hand stuff and not use weights, or I'd completely fuck up my body structure.
Is he right?
My goal right now is to build up my strength as much as possible while avoiding looking like a bouncer.
Guide me, /fit/. Any reliable links to how I should workout would be appreciated.

>GOMAD
>Basic Muscle Building Program
Eat 2000 calories on top of GOMAD. Recommend a lot of lean meat. Try Steak or chicken, or make them a sandwich for your carbs. Download MyFitnessPal, and count your macros. Focus on compound movements for lifting, but that should be covered in the workout plan. PB&Js are good for extra cals.
>not use weights, or I'd completely fuck up my body structure
disregard this faggot
nothing wrong with bodyweight, but if your goal is strength then barbell is the most efficient way. find a beginner strength program like SS/SL and eat at a 500 calorie surplus and start from there
Holy shit dude. I weigh about 160 and I'm like 5'6/5'7. I was about 140 before I started lifting though
Now that you've gotten fit, what's the best job you can get to go with it? (Bonus points for highly masculine jobs.)
>tfw don heavy welding helmet, gloves and boots
>ftw forging heavy plates of sheet metal together with flames coming from my mortal hands
Try and 1-up me, plebs.
I pick things up and put them down in the freight yard.
Lifting for income and lifting for gains, fuck off OP.
>>39590349
Electrician/Appliance repair. But I am hoping to get into welding for funsies.
If anyone wants advice or has a question on their appliance I can probably help from here.

Solid, thought about it myself

I finally think I can consider myself /fit/, I enlisted in the National Guard for a 6 year contract. FeelsGoodMan. The next step is to get a qt 3.14 Korean girlfriend. I think I am making it boys. Only negative in my life now is that the transmission in my car went out yesterday.
>>39590300
>tfw woke up feeling like shit and basically decided to do nothing all day
I ended up going for a 1.5mi jog, and then went to the gym for an hour.
>>39590333
Nice trips. There is no shame in doing nothing all day as long as you kept to the routine and made progress.
I got a date today, with a THINN qt 3.14 girl who I am guessing is like 5' tall, which means my manlet status doesn't matter. It's great. I'm so happy.
What kind of shoes does fit wear to the gym?

I'm literally considering cutting out whey. I eat meat and feel that it is stupid to get my protein in with ALL animal products. Dairy products also make me feel like shit and whey is literally all I consume. I was thinking about those vega plant based ones as well.
>>39590108
Nectar makes some fruity flavored protein isolates that aren't half bad
>>39590122
>No whey

Remove that bit close to your lower lips (I don't know how you burgerfags call it) and you willlook handsome as fuck. Actually you would look handsome without your facial hair thanks to your handsome face, so stop worrying.

What are the best power racks for a home gym?
Is this okay?

>>39590065
It's not the worst, but you could raise the base budget by 100 and get a better rack with free shipping.

How many of you do brosplit a versus strength ?
>>39589877
Ppl while on initial cut. Strength training on my first bulk, probably gonna go back to ppl or Phul or phat afterwards.
>>39589877
Split my training into phases, doing a bro phase using GVT and then gonna do more athletic based full body workouts, gotta keep the gains coming and not get complacent doing the same boring picking things up and putting them down
>>39589877
lift purely for strength, trying to get good at powerlifting atm
I'm doing SS (not GOMAD). I've failed my squats for the third time and is time to deload I guess. My question is about the timing. I've been doing this program for about 14 weeks. My squat started at 95lbs and I'm stuck at 285 for 3x3. My other lifts are also reaching the point where I'll have to deload and work back up. At 14 weeks, is this where I should be? Am I doing this right? When can I expect to stop making linear progression?
>>39589848
unkess youre like 300 lbs, move to an intermediate program
if you like SS, youll like texas method
>>39589848
>When can I expect to stop making linear progression?
Typically, 3-9 months. It varies widely. Unless you started doing something differently recently, you've probably hit the end of linear progression.
The Texas Method is the standard recommendation for people who finished SS.
You can also check your strength on the tables here:

If you are category 3 or higher, you've finished your noob gains. If you're category 1 or lower, you're still can make noob gains.
>>39589895
>If you are category 3 or higher, you've finished your noob gains. If you're category 1 or lower, you're still can make noob gains.
This is fucking retarded.
>>39589848
You've finished noob gains when you can't progress on a simple LP program anymore.
If you've deloaded as per the program, and you still can't progress, you need to move on to different programming.
Texas Method is fucking shit, so don't do that.
The intermediate bench + deadlift + squat from gnuckols 28 free programs (strengtheory.com) are pretty good.
