If I don't have a spotter, should I stick to machines or go down in weight?
>>39127079
Neither.
>>39127079
You shouldn't be lifting a weight you can't handle even if you have a spotter. The only exception is when testing your one rep max.

Hey bro, I get that you're probably just looking for an outlet to talk about anime with like minded, fitness enthusiasts because you dont have anyone irl that shares your interests.
If that is the case, you're not alone.
I recently became obsessed with JoJo and got back in the gym and have no one to talk to either.
>>39127049
Just finished Oregairu, pretty feelsy.
I snack on sunflower seeds during my anime binges, macros are pretty solid, shell keeps me from eating too much.

why are women like this? it's like they assume just because you're lifting you have to strive after a ryan gosling "it's like you're photoshopped" physique
this never happened by the way, i just like pretending i have a gf and make threads about hypothetical situations we may find ourselves in

This cracked me up. I'v been feeling pretty low recently and really needed a laugh today guys. Thanks.
>Ugh, anon, we can hear you workout in your room, why don't you go to a gym? & You know possibly meet a cute gf
What? What are you talking about?
I do go to the gym, and I live alone. Why are you in my apartment?
>>39126806
Because I only want my ex and you're not helping.

What's wrong with you?
It still tastes like shit.
The unflavored whey tastes like mozzarella if you mix it with water, and edam if you mix it with milk.
>drinking cheese

Making gains doesn't have to taste like ass, faggot
Can I run Nolvadex on it's own to prevent further gyno or estrogen?
Cheers
>>39126369
Bump.
Don't really have any idea why this happens, but every time I start lifting I experience minor gyno problems such as puffy, itchy nipples.
When I stop lifting this disappears, at least the itchiness and puffiness but the lump has remained the same.
I've lifted on and off for many years 100% natty and I'm legit worried about lifting again, as I had the same itchy nipple issue in the gym the other day and during a cardio session.
TL;DR got itchy nipples, what 2 do
>>39126369
>to prevent further gyno or estrogen?
You do realise that you need estrogen?
Gonna have a problem with getting your dick up without it, and other things
But why self medicate when you can go to a doctor and talk to him about your puffy nips?

doctors just say "its just natural bro" so its not really an option

That's pathetic and sad for both of you

sometimes when I go into the gym on benchpress day, there's a guy there who warms up with my working weight. my working weight is 240lbs.
protip: there are people stronger than you and if you keep making excuses to why they're not really stronger than you, you'll never make it.
I've been doing SS 5 months now.
73kg 178cm
Squat: 85kg
DL: 110kg
Bench: 75kg
OHP: 50kg
Pullups: 15kg
3x5
Squat and deadlift are low because of injury.
I've cut down from 80kg, but my lifts have stalled out. My goal is to cut to 70kg before beginning a slow bulk. Should I stick with SS until my bulk so I can make gains again, or switch to an intermediate program? My goals are to be strong and lean. Thanks.

Hey /fit/ I fucked up bad today.
I've been super stressed all week and binged on Mickey D's this morning. I'm trying to recoup my day and salvage what I can.
Can we start a motivation thread?

Lol faggot stop crying and go to the gym
dunno if this applies here, i saved it a while back
>oh I'm unhappy because I tfwnogf, and am lonely
Have you thought that maybe everyone feels that way too, and that they kind of don't mind those feelings because it makes feeling like a part of something even better?
My man you're thinking backwards here. Having a gf and not being lonely won't change your mindset. That's just what you tell yourself to justify the way you feel.
Instead look at it this way. You are inseparable from the universe, like a wave is inseparable from the ocean. In that sense you are the same as everyone around you.
I you look at a sea shell you'll see not a flawl. It is beautiful and flawless, but let's suppose we are like seashells now, are we going to say that you're not a flawless and beautiful seashell?
Trust me you're not depressed. You're only misguided by your thoughts which aren't your whole existence.
To illustrate this: try being quiet and close your eyes. You'll notice your mind name objects and trail off with thoughts. You can't do anything to change this, so therefore it isn't really "you" as you know it, but is an automatic process or feature of your existance. Much like your beating heart is a process and feature of your existance.
So are your thoughts you? Not at all.
What I'm trying to get at here is that depression is an illusion constructed when we place our centre of gravity in our mind, thinking it to be everything, when it is only a part of the whole beautiful organism that is you.
>tfw 31 years old and in better shape than you
That face is 30? Must be vegan. Brace yourself, fag. I'm 30 now, but I'm gonna catch up to you in six months. Just you wait.
