/fit/ can you help me out here?
i am poor as fuck and wondered how fit i can get (sixpack and some pecs would be nice) from just doing pushups, crunches and squats and how long it might take? (i am 6'4'', currently 20 pounds to much)
∞.
Don't expect results from nothing.
Read the sticky.
>>39582624
put pushups and crunches aren't nothing, are they?
i've read all the stickies and also had a read into starting strength, since i am too poor to buy dumbbells though i am specifically asking how much said pushups and crunches can get you
>>39582624
This.
Work in -> work out. If you halfass your workouts or try to put in as little effort as possible, you're going to get the same level of results. Almost none. Took me like 6 months of lifting 5-6x a week to start smiling when I looked in the mirror.
Is this true? Does that also work the other way around?
btw. Fat/fit-culture discussion
It's true, but only because fat women are told by society that they're princesses and perfect the way they are, so they'll never be satisfied by anyone except the perfect man.
Why would it work the other way round?
men are the privileged ones :^)

tfw you will never get the chance to reply "yeah I don't own a forklift" to sit back and watch hamplanets lose their shit
>>39582486
sure. you srent a mech robot from alien movies.
Title says it all I guess. Why do you continue doing peaking programs when you want hypertrophy? Don't quote me Rippetoe or Sheiko or whoever is in-vogue nowadays. I want to hear how YOU, Anon, justify your training choices to reach YOUR goals.
>>39582478
I don't.
I do ppl
>>39582485
That's good.
>>39582478
Because benching 40 kg for sets of 12 was embarrassing and getting me nowhere.
Redpill me on cannabis-protein
>>39582473
i could but i will not because you use the trem redpill..
>>39582523
ooookeee?
>>39582538
yah. yanno, its plant based protein with alot of omega shit. sticky it up.
i wouldnt buy it because it is probably industrial hemp grade. idk whats been sprayed on that as pesticide.
same with creatine with those roided out antibiotics fulled animals.
Monday: Chest and Tris (flat bench, incline dumbells press, cable flies supersetted with pushups) chest press machine till failure( 3 sets) tricep pushdowns, skullcrushers, and overhead extenstions
Tuesday legs: (squats, leg press, leg extenstions, calves and maybe lunges)
Wednesday back: (deadlifts, pullups, bent over rows, lat pull down, t bar rows)
Thursday misc: (shoulders/traps/abs)
Friday begins chest again and so on.

>>39582435

Attention
currently squatting a bit over 3.5pl8 5x5 and i'm starting to notice that i'm losing my core tightness
i was wondering when was it OK to buy a belt and knee wraps? when did you start using them?
Fuck yeah. Someone strong. Go ahead and buy some Inzer knee sleeves. They helped so much with my knee pain.
https://www.inzernet.com/detail.asp?PRODUCT_ID=SLEEVES_ELBOW_XT
It keeps my knees from caving and helps me focus on keeping my chest up and core tight
Btw I started using them after I squatted 335x3 for sets of 5. I completed smolov and my peak was 425x1 with belt and knee sleeves.
>>39582307
Fuck wrong link

Anyone tried melanotan before? What were your experiences?
>>39582279
Developed it in my mid 20's. Wasn't too bad if I recall. just lost all my rights
>>39582295
KEK
wow he looks great
Aside from lifting how do you spend free time?
>>39582269
Eating
Masturbating
Showering
Wiping my ass (sweat)
Tying my shoes
Taking off my shirt and putting it on
Yelling at my mom
Working. School. Jackie ch-
FUCK
eating
studying
games
football (soccer)
Bout to hit a THICC girl. Give me tips /fit/
>>39582268
for maximum enjoyment, put her in a prone bone position and put a pillow under her hips so her ass sticks up, then just fucking plow away like a madman
that clap clap clap noise will probably make you cum within 15.4 seconds, be warned
Make sure you follow through, don't punch with just your arms, your power comes from your hips. Drive your fist through your target

lol
>TLDR
What would be the best way for someone who has been lifting for 6+ years to re-learn how to squat?
>FULL STORY
I'm getting pretty bad lower back pain and squatting is starting to feel much harder than it use to, I feel I may have fucked up my form in the last few years, which has caused me issues.
In my last session I literally had to stop squatting after 3 working sets because I could barely fucking stand. Something definitely has gone wrong with my form, causing me serious issues.
That said, I am 100% ready and willing to put my ego aside and re-learn how to squat from the bar again. What's the best way to approach this?
Start with an empty bar, and add 5 pounds to it every week.
>>39582157
Start with 5 pounds, and add an empty bar to it every week.
I have a power rack at home, 10 x 20kg plates at home (including a variety of other sizes of course), oly-shoes, and a lever belt.
Should I drop the belt?
Should I drop the oly-shoes?
I have the perfect set-up at home to re-learn the squat and start over again.
I want to be able to hit a 5 plate squat at home without having any back issues.
have been training for 2.5 years
5'11
178lbs was before lifting 146lbs
have not made any real progress in a few months.
Is this my genetic limit?
Just plateaued man. Switch things up, just gotta bust through it.
I'd suck your dick no homo
>>39582143
Pretty much this. You've reached a plateau. Like anon said you need to change your routine, nothing dramatic so don't go pants on head retarded with it.
is 5'9 short for a man /fit/? I'm only 19. Should I stop lifting to make sure I grow some more?
you wont grow more if you stop lifting lmao
you sound like a new lifter who will never ever make it
>>39582068
I'm in the same boat as you right now buddy. Sucks too since both my parents are giants. All we can do is hope to get another inch in before our mid 20s when the height becomes permanent. God speed.
>>39582088
>you sound like a new lifter
I sort of am.
> who will never ever make it
Pls don't say that.
>get /fit/
>start taking care about appearence, hair, fashion, skin
>realize i got beautiful compared to when i was a teenager
>now i feel some inner dread, thinking about the inevitable decay that one day i will become old, my hair will fall, will lose muscles, start getting ugly
>enter some kind of Mishima like, existential crisis
T-thanks /fit/.
There is only one thing to do.
>>39582001
>tfw not manly enough for sepukku
The idea of having to stab myself and then proceed to slice my stomach open while enduring the pain makes me pale.
Men age like wine don't worry
