Ever since I tightened up my form on the deadlift (brian shaw has some really useful cues) my shins hurt like fucking mad if I deadlift regularly.
I don't even pull 3pl8 yet, but when i wear shorts, people ask me what happened to my shins (visible discoloration and bruising)
How do you fags deal with this?
Pic related though mine don't look quite so bad
>I want to look like a total fag
>tattoo artist: I got you famalam
>glorified DYEL stage because of starting in May
>never got those or them knock against my knees because I tirelessly try to perfect my deadlift form
What's your excuse?
Delay opening the hip angle if you can. The Bar is supposed to go straight off the ground and it starts by 'pushing' directly against the ground and not lifting the chest.
How did you start out?
weak and afraid

Cooking & food thread.
What did you cook today? Don't tell me you eat pre-made food /fit/.
Me? I cooked pic related, simple and boring but done in 10 minutes.
Share recipe and macros/cals OP. What do you eat it with?
Im going to put 2 pounds of chicken breast in a bag full of teriyaki sauce for a few hours and then put them in a hot pan until cooked so I'll have at least some of my meals prepped until the middle of the week
How do you guys buy your chicken?
Reminder that this statue, the Farnese Hercules was considered in the so mind-boggling buff that up until the 1950s, many doctors thought it was literally impossible that a human body could ever achieve that physique.

Your penis shrinks during physical activity. Hercules didn't run around with a boner whilst he was doing his 12 labours

Lifting is basically an RPG game
>>39175040
life is the greatest rpg game
but people are afraid to play it
>>39175040
Life is basically an RPG.
Get fitter, get better equipment, enchant your weaponry, get friends, join guilds, level up as much as you can, take on bigger and harder tasks
I play rs to learn from real skillers and merchants so i could rule in life
Can someone please tell me why I like fat girls so much? Is it really just repressed beta behavior?
This shit is getting ridiculous.
Yeah nah brah your just high test cunt

Let's talk beginner routines, I just started lifting again and want to try this out, did a couple of workouts, feels great.
What are your beginner routines, how much did you progress on them and what did you add to it?
Fuckin love greyskull man. Been on it for a few months. What's your lifts at? Look up more info about greyskull, that pic you have is just one guys variant, it is very customizable. It is such a good program for beginners. In my opinion, the best. The fact that the last set of your main lifts is an AMRAP makes it so that as you progress, you get some autoregulation with your rep ranges, and when you deload, you're not stuck being bored with baby weight, you can still hit rep PRs and get some higher volume in.
I'm 6', 155 pounds
one rep maxes:
Squat 275
Bench 155
Deadlift 345
OHP 125
calculated using strengthstandards.co

I do base greyskull plus dips, cable rows/latpulldowns, and shrugs after the main lifts. I wanna add some calves, abs, and grip work.
