I guess if I don't have beard, something might be wrong with me.
I have nothing. I weigh 120lbs at 5'10, but I've seen skinnier people with full beards. So it can't be the lack of calories.
Seriously /fit/, I look like pure shit. I look like a kid.
How do get manlier?
>>39125532
increase test
try minoxidil
have good beard genes
it's simple; be a man, get a beard
keiran i thought you were doing a live show with sam on NTS right now
>>39125532
No offense OP but you look like a homeless woman.
How the FUCK do you drink these 1 liter smoothies? I just made one and halfway through the first glass I can feel vomit coming out of my mouth.
>Can't drink a liter of liquid
Genetic dead end
>>39125454
Those look good.
>>39125469
Could it be? Or is it just because the drink itself was garbage?
>2 cups milk
>1/2 cup quickoats
>2 bananas
>4 tbsp peanut butter
>2 tbsp olive oil
It tasted good, then drinking it felt disgusting,
Sup /fit/, i have been lurking for a long time but i don't post regularly. I am 18 years old and figured i should pick up lifting again. Last time i lifted i was 16 and i followed the subreddits guidelines and it didn't get me very far. 5x5 took my bench from 22.5 kg to 40 kgs, that's all. The only thing i got from those 4 months worthy of bragging of is maybe that i was legpressing 4x my bodyweight.
For the record i am a mix between mesomorph and ectomorph, leaning towards ectomorph. I find it impossible to gain any weight at all, i have tried, i just cant. Now that i am 18, i have got a lot more testosterone and a rather impressive beard for someone my age. I went to a gym and did a regular 5x5 routine and added some curls and brosplit arm, core workouts after. I saw how much arms were bulging more than they ever had so i think this time around my gains will improve a lot more. I read somewhere that people who are ectomorph/mesomorph mixes should just give up on bulking and just go for the regular brosplit and gain volume instead of a lot of strength. Do yall agree? Btw my i have Persian genes and everyone in my family seems to have it rather easy to gain weight/muscle. My cousin is swole as a motherfucker and he does the regular brosplit. So ill appreciate any help
what do you want help with?
>>39125599
Do i go brosplit? Do i do 5x5? Did you read my post? I have heard brosplit is better for an ectomorph guy like me
>>39125393
Keep training legs that's for sure
Maybe start bench press, squats, deadlifts before moving on to isolations, but make sure you do squeeze workouts for chest (e.g. flys) or your chest will be deformed.
Also cardio, it doesn't kill gains that's- just a meme, and it will help your overall health
So I looked at a BMI chart and apparently i am even more obese tan I thought I was.
So it's two years before I can consider myself a human, not one.
Hold me brehs.
>>39125350
wtf how much were you off by
>>39125366
I thought 95kgs would be the norm for me, but turns out healthy BMI is 70kg at 180cm.
I'm 120kg right now.
Down from 140 kg. Jesus christ time is passing slowly.
Hold you? I can't get my arms around that lard
Hey /fit/
I have really bad social anxiety and can't really go to the gym, but getting on meds soon so I can. Pic related is what I have to work with. I'm 6ft tall, about 170pounds, and kind of skinny fat. What can i do with these weighs to make some progress until I take care of my anxiety and go to the gym?
I currently do squats with the 30 pound weights, forearm curls, bicep curls, and overhead press. With the 25 pound weights I do lateral raises. I also do push-ups often. Any suggestions?
>>39125081
Stop being pussy, find a gymbro or someone to go with, do your routine and leave
>>39125107
I wish it were that easy. I don't really have any friends interested in lifting weights either. How can I find a gym bro without friends who are interested?
>try bodyweight stuff
>read the sticky
>go to a gym
ITT: we assign an exercises and fitness related things to a fictional race, character, thing, etc.
ATG front squat - High elf.
Low bar squat - Ork Grunt
Bench press - Space Marine
Cardio - Vampire, because it will suck out your gains.

What's your excuse, nu-male?
No trees in a circle of radius epsilon centered at me.
No fireplace and it's not cold here anyway.

I have a real job.
How do I unlock this mode?
Drink 17 gallons of water and reach -8 BF

The fuck is this, looks like a part of his bowels.
This is what happens when you confuse the muscle too many times.
is it safe to work out on cocaine? if so, can I still take all my usual supplements?
no, it fucks up your ability to feel pain so you might push yourself too far (not in a good way)
>>39124733
rev up some tren, snort a line, take a preworkout and hit the gym bro. what have you got to lose, your life? don't be a pussy
>>39124762
don't forget your post workout protein shake too
If I'm not gaining any weight does it mean that I'm not making muscle gainz either?
>>39124525
No, just like peeing doesn't mean you're losing fluids.
>>39124525
past the novice stage that's pretty much what it means
recomping is slow as fuck and ineffective once you've been lifting for a couple years
bump for replies
>was opening a jar of pickles at a party (slav life), relatively drunk at this point

>the one on the left was looking at my arms before staring at me with that smile and strange look in her eyes like she's tempted or something
>tfw you're still a dyel skinny fat
at least i'm 6'3 so i look lean with shirt on...
why arab girls tho
that look she had was hot, i dont like arab girls but that was what you guys call eyefucking for a few seconds i think.
first time i have a mire that i'm sure of
>>39124521
it wasnt because youre some superhuman you autist its because the jar was shitty. enjoy telling people about how a pickle jar busted and thats why your hands are covered in scars
>there are people on /fit/ right now who don't put water in first
>there is retards that actually put the scoop in first
I don't believe it
>>39124508
>there are people who don't put milk over water in first
had a friend constantly explain his shake tasted like shit and i watched him mixed it. i actually had to explain that the scoop takes up volume and he wasn't putting in the right amount of water.
thoughts on the brand? Is the whey good? I'm running out of my MusclePharm blend and need some more protein powder. Could use some more Creatine too.
SUggestions on flavors? Should I get the isolate or just the impact whey?
>>39124448
I think they're the best out there in terms of quality and price. Get the regular Impact Protein. I highly recommend Chocolate Smooth.
I heard their creatine is very good, but I haven't used it, so I can't vouch for it.
Make sure you wait for a flash sale; 25% is pretty much the normal price, but I got a 5kg bag during a 50% off sale for $60.
Finally, my only complaint is time. It takes about a week to actually get your stuff, so order ahead of time.
>>39124448
60% off on all proteins right now
Get 11lbs vanilla and add cinnamon to make it less disgusting
Just got lemon cheesecake flavor. It's ok-ish.
>life is shit because i'm a coward and unable to take decisions
>mentally feel like shit
>gym is the only remedy, live life okay-ish but unhappy
>months pass
>same problem still
>now develop a physical tic (shrug my right shoulder all the time and can't control it) probably because of all the stress and pressure and anxiety i'm under
>afraid it will interfere with my lifting aka the only thing that's been keeping me sane
fuck this shit. AND FUCK THIS SHOULDER JUST STOP DOING IT
any advice on how to get rid of a nervous tic?
>>39124439
Treat the underlying cause - learning to deal with the stresses of life.
>>39124462
maybe one day i'll learn it
>>39124518
maybe one day you'll actually choose what makes you happy, instead of going the way which makes you obviously feel like shit?
>Tfw you just finished your shitty small meal and now have to wait 5hrs before your next shitty small meal
No, sorry, I'm on a bulk.
>>39124278
Eat of salad, onions, radishes etc
Make soups/smoothies, they keep you full longer
I know that feel all to well. Do paleo and stuff your face with veg
