So I started liftin from zero about a month ago and tried squatting (zercher) for the first time. I could barely do 60lbs for 8 reps. The hell is wrong with me? I was always kind of weak but that weight is ridiculously low. I'm at ~130lbs bodyweight.

You've been lifting a fucking month what are you doing meme lifts for.
Forget fucking Zerchers.
>>39336819
>zercher meme squats
>130 pounds
Please be a girl
>>39336839
Nope just skeleton mode. Also Zercher seemed fun to do. Why is it considered a meme?
For over 6 years now I have had to crack my back daily or more
I started this habit during high school sports, and now 6 years later my back is stiff unless I stretch and crack it.
What long term consequences when into back cracking daily?
What's master technique to back crack on days your back don't want to crack?
>>39336768
Cracking your back is not the issue. The poor posture that leads to you having to crack your back is the issue.
Strengthen your core and your posterior chain and fix your posture.
Look up anterior pelvic tilt. If you have it. Fix it.
Just out of curiousity, does anyone here tuck in the back of their shirt when they are in the gym? I'm not saying tucking your shirt in completely, just the back like pic related? I've been doing this for years, and as of lately I've noticed a lot of guys in the fitness community doing it. It may be trivial, but I've always done it because it keeps my shirt tighter around my waist and makes it look smaller when I lift.
The bigger guys on here should know what I'm talking about, when you were a Tshirt and it sits baggy around your waist because your frame is so much wider than your waist, so it makes you look kinda fat? That's why I tuck in the back of my Tshirt. Anybody else do this?
Tldr; do you tuck in your shirt when you lift? Specifically just in the back?
"look fat"
you wont look fat unless you're
-actually fat
>a manlet on steroids
>"anons p-pls, will tucking my shirt make chad notice m-me?"
>>39336716
Not fat, I put that wrong, but it almost takes away from the how small your waist is. Like look at the dude on the left in a regular t shirt. Yeah he has big arms but he would look even that much more impressive if his t shirt was fitted along his waist
Hi. I got fat then flabby then fat again and trying get back on the saddle one more time.
Supermarket closes in 1 hour. I have a job so I am not limited to cheap food. But I have a job so I don't have much time for cooking. What can I buy today (sunday, 5pm) that will last me until friday night and I can easily cook ?
I figure breakfast could be banana/apple + oats and boiling water but I have no idea for lunch and evening meal.
Help, pretty please ?
I am also thinking of tuna and salmon for lunch plus some vegetables but I don't know which.
Basically, I need fast and easy recipes.
>>39336585
My favorite quick and easy meal is tuna salad. It takes maybe 10-15 mins and has alot of protein and not so much calories in it.
2-3cans of tuna
1/2 onion
1/2 Paprika
>optional
2 hard boiled eggs
Some diet mayonnaise (or real mayonnaise depends on your needs)
>1.
Chop the onion and paprika.
>2.
Open the can of tuna and let all the oil drill out then put it in a bowl.
>3.
Put everything together and add mayonnaise until its nice and creamy (but be careful mayonnaise has a lot of fat).
Then just eat it pure or on top of some toast in which case you made yourself a tasty tuna sandwich
>>39336585
Also just eat vegetables for snacks instead of processed foods.
For example
Make your self some carrot or cucumber sticks in low fat herbquark (?)

mine is too salty, i dont like it. And i dont have any friends :(
Anyone ever try stronglifts with deadlifts and squats switched?
Don't
why not?
>>39336052
Have you seen Steven Hawking? Yeah he tried it...
If i go for a run in the morning then lift in the afternoon will it negatively affect my gains?
>>39335976
As long as your nutrition is OK and your run isnt 100% exhausting you, you're fine.
>>39335976
Not op
Running is a big part of my routine (nothing crazy, 8 miles at the maximum) and its important for me to feel healthy physically and mentally. I'm also fairly new to lifting so I have some questions and I've been waiting for this thread.
Does running/not running while lifting make that big of a difference?
As long as I'm getting enough calories and protein runs after my lifts shouldn't affect my recovery or gains right?
>>39335976
That's not how evolution works
/fit/ please help, you are the closest to health stuff. Is this wart one of those that can fuck the whole nail up? It has been there for several months but it hasnt grown bigger than that.
its dried cum consider taking a shower
Heres another pick of its location, its the black area just next to the line where the nail connects to skin.
Try soaking feet in Epsom salt, vinegar, with warm water for 15min. If nothing, see a podiatrist. Consultations are usually free if amerifag.
>You see that guy over there? He browses a fitness board all day long and isn't even /fit/ or big. Can you believe it? He must be gay or just incredibly incompetent.
You should go to the gym instead of shitposting here all the time with your feels.

>that first plate of the day
>>39335833

How do you get over the one that got away?
Did you guys start lifting because of that or what?
>>39335794
Get over a girl by getting under another one and by stop being a pussy.
>>39335810
But that can't be it anon i can't go on getting under another girl every single time i fall in love with one and things don't work out like they could have
Learn from it and keep improving.
>tfw if she could see me now
how can i stop my bones from cracking? should i be worried? my arms and legs keep sounds everytime i stretch.
>>39335722
Break them.
>>39335807
but that hurts.
>>39335722
See a physiotherapist/chiropractor.
