I've been out of the game for years fellows, how do I do this?
Also, how do you exercise with a chest tendon injury?
>>39431524
First off tinder is a waste of time. To meet a women you simply get her number and yarda yada yada.
-rest your chest bro work on legs 3x a week or something

>To meet a women you simply get her number and yarda yada yada.
And Tinder is one way of doing that.
>>39431524
Talk to them, if you got 50+ matches pick the uglier or less interesting ones first and use them as cannon fodder. Practice makes perfect.
Exercises that don't really hit chest + cardio.

Assuming someone the size of Aaron Curtis (what like 210 lbs shredded?) has absolutely no fighting experience, no sports, nothing goes against Connor Mcgregor in a street fight would Connor stand a chance or would he just be thrown around by the bigger dude since he's just so much smaller?
>>39429865
not this shit again about "could XYZ take down Connor?"
>>39429865
McGregor would win easily. The real question is if he could beat someone like Dwight Howard or Shaq
>>39429865
U srs m8? Go watch early UFC with no weight classes or freak fights in pride. Small guys beat big guys all the time who actually have training due to skill. Size comes into play when skill is roughly equal. A professional fighter will fuck up an untrained dude no problem.
hip flexor pain while squatting, specifically coming out of a squat. i've seen these threads a couple of times on here, but i never bothered to read them, because it didn't concern me. now it does (right side only). what do?
>>39428421
My theories
1. adductor trigger points
2. hip flexor or quad trigger points
3. tight hip flexors
4. weak hip flexors
5. weak adductors
6. weak abdominals
7. piriformis trigger points
try working on all of these things for 2-3 weeks. if it doesnt go away or increases in severity, see a sports medicine specialist.
>>39428502
what do you mean by trigger points?
>>39428540
Sometimes parts of the muscle bunch up and adheres together and becomes 'stuck'.
These trigger points can impair range of motion, smooth movement of the muscle, can cause pain directly where the trigger point is, or in adjacent muscles/joints.
If you like that look into Epictetus and Seneca. /fit/ as fuck

QTDDTOT: Questions that don't deserve their own thread
I didnt see one up.
Is is strange that I buttwink like a motherfucker on my squats unless I specifically make an effort to ignore that part of my squat? Basically if I focus on keeping lower back arched or flat or hips from folding under, they do it anyway. But if I completely neglect it and just let my ass end up where it ends up, it looks great.
Will this come back and bite me? Or is it fine?
>>39425995
Is there any difference between cable hammer curls and dumbbell hammer curls?
Specifically forearm activation?
>>39425995
Buttwink is a bit of a meme and in most cases isn't going to cause harm providing you are braced properly.
A lot of buttwink looks worse because of how the waist band of shorts moves as you squat.
>>39426007
There's not a huge amount of difference in my experience. I've always found cable curls more challenging for my bicep and I think this is because the tension is continuous unlike dumbbell hammer curls.
Ultimately forearm activation will be greatest with whichever curl allows you to move the most weight. Dumbbell hammer curl probably should have more forearm activation because there is more stabilisation of the weight occurring and I'm assuming you are moving more weight (because it's slightly easier to cheat when your bicep is fatigued).
does my forearm still get worked if i deadlift with over-under grip and use straps

Is losing hair from creatine a meme or real. I've been using it for a month and have great results from its so far but I also have a great set of thick hair on my head (pic related) that I'd hate to lose. I'm 18 btw if that matters. Pls help.
Basically creatine is only going to accelerate the balding process if you're genetically predisposed to it.
Got thick hair from my mom, they're still as thick 4 months into taking creatine, no entries, no thining, nothing.
Basically if you've been dealt a shit hand creatine is simply going to make you loose your hair faster.
>>39424707
How do you know if you're going to go bald? My dad is balding in his 40's but he has some brothers in their 50's who still have thick heads of hair. My mom's dad has a bald mid patch but he's in his 80s. He's the only living male on my mom's side.

Title says it all. Was about half a minute from slitting my wrists and bleeding to death in the tub. Haven't eaten in almost two days,I stink, I haven't lifted in almost a week and even then I always truncated the workouts and never finished them. I'm tired and my eyes and head hurt from crying, and I can not find the motivation to even get out of bed despite it being two in the afternoon. I'm on the brink of failing out of school and my balding is worse than ever.
What the fuck do I do? My ex stayed on the phone with me for hours to convince me to stay alive, but now I have no idea what to do. I am alive, but not much else, and I am still not sure if I won't just kill myself in another day or two anyways. I have never felt so directionless and empty in my life. /fit/ has been good to me over the years, I am hoping I can get some sort of motivation or inspiration from you guys.
Do you have any family or friends anon?
>>39420471
Once you've hit rock bottom, the only way to go is up. There are plenty of people to talk to anon. Councillors, suicide hotlines et... But I love you Internet stranger and I wouldn't want you to do anything to hurt yourself. Things may seem hopeless right now but if you ask for help you will get it. Go on reddit.com/r/depression or /r/suicidewatch are both great places to start friend. Do you have family or friends you can call. Anon?
