Who /making progress/ here?
I started my second year of lifting a couple of weeks ago (I lost about 35 pounds of fat last year) have to lose the same amount over the next 6-12 months to hit my target weight. Cleaned up diet a fair bit over time. Made more gains in 2 weeks then I would of in a 4 weeks last year.
Who knew it was all about diet.
>>39376322
no one?
>>39376322
Nice progress man, amazing work, keep it up!
I'm down to 168 from 210 earlier this year in late January.
My diet was also shit, and still was shit even while losing the weight.
I didn't get serious until about 2 months ago and I know it'll help.
Still have 23 more lbs to lose until I reach goal weight, which I'm planning to reach by February.
Also got a boyfriend rather recently and we're getting fit together which is awesome, we're all gonna make it bros.
>>39376506
Nice.
I'm down from 245 to about 210. Goal is 175, height is 5'10. How tall are you? 145 is really light. My diet is good right now, not 'clean' all the time but there's lot of chicken, pasta, fruit, vegetables in there and I don't eat any sweets, cakes etc. My biggest vice is alcohol and caffiene. I'm replacing the caffiene with yerba mate and working on my /spiritual gains/ for the alcohol.
I'm hoping to acquire a gf myself. We're all gonna make it breh.
this calories in calories out thing is total bullshit
I ate 1500 calories and didnt lose any weight over at least 2 months and now I'm eating whatever I want to and stopped going to the gym and I havent gained any weight over 3 months
oh and my hair began falling out and my resting heart rate was 50 on 1500 calories. now my resting heart rate is ~70 and my hair is back
>>39375816
You counted calories wrong
Also
>not counting calories now
>haven't gained weight
>obviously close to maintenance
>absolute fucking mystery
>>39375816
Only two possible explanations:
1. Your math is wrong
2. Your body is capable of violating the laws of physics
I've been reading up on MK 677 and I'm considering trying it. I got interested because of the potential height gains, but I'm 22 and realize that it most likely won't do anything for me in that department.
I'm trying to lower BF right now, I'm not sure if it would help. I've also read that it could be dangerous, and that the long term effects are unknown. Could someone who's more knowledgeable than I help me out with this?
apparently you didn't read anything, or you would know that you won't gain any height by taking it.
>>39375570
>will you gain height
no
>will it lower body fat
absolutely not, probably do the opposite due to water retention
>is it dangerous
no
>are long term effects known?
Year long studies have been done, no bad effects.
Currently on my third bottle of of MK-677, been taking it since mid-august. Unfortunately, I've been really busy, haven't had a chance to really use it to it's full potential.
Effects I've seen:
>Fast recovery
>Extremely good rest and sleep
>Joints, tendons, and ligaments feel amazing
>Little to no catabolism when you can't eat (MK-677 was originally studied for frailty in the elderly and for keeping soldiers healthy)
>Water retention
>You get extremely hungry for the first week due to increased IGF-1 levels, before you gain a tolerance.

How can I stop the attention?
>>39375674
Rip ass loudly during deadlifts
Why is this allowed?
Maybe stop talking shit to anybody who isn't a fat /plg/ guy
>>39375121
>>39375121
it would take too much effort to implement the rules that would make pl not suck so much.

High Test Fat fuck here, I just want to pound thicc BBW all day.
How fit do I need to be to do this? Otter mode enough? What responses have you guys had from women? Made you more confident?
>>39372950
be black
>>39372950
honestly fama, it doesnt matter what body you have.
what lifting can give you is confidence, self acceptance and a mood boost.
this is what girls dig, they dig a guy who can be themselves while loving themselves and therefore being able to love others.
this is all lifting will give you, that, and a shredded ass body
it has doubled
0 * 2 = 0
>awaiting a phone interview for a position in a warehouse
How do I reduce the chance of breaking my back.
>>39372389
Lift with the legs.
>>39372389
ded lyfts
Keep back straight and tight throughout the lift. Use the legs to get stuff of the ground. Do this every single time and your back will be fine
If someone asks you if you go to the gym what do you say?
>>39372083
i tell them the truth?
I say "no".
>"why anon?"
Because I have manboobs.
Sad life bruh :(
>>39372083

>tfw natty lifting for over 4 years and have grown tired of it
the last year i've only been going 3 times a week just to maintain what I have
I'm at a point now where it's a chore and something to get me out of the house.
why even lift natty after 4 years? It's literally pointless.
inject le steroids XD XD XD
>>39369431
i don't wanna lose my hair
take up kickboxing or some shit and just go to the gym a couple times a week to maintain strenght
It's cool, were in the locker room all your secrets are between us. Ask questions about your sexsual performance, behaviors, etc
Would Trump increase my test?
>>39364635
how do i grab her by the pussy?
>>39364635
Blood flow
Cardio, bananas/almonds, daily amount of water
Lasting longer
Lotion up the dick daily, thicker condoms, yohimbe and these multivitamin pills help(pic related).
