What can I do to prevent this shit from happening again?

I can't even do 95lb barbell rows without snapping my shit up.....and doing 85lb rows makes my form suffer because of the difference in plate size.

What do?

Don't do rows
Wear a belt
Lower the weight
Do those seated rows instead
Do yates rows instead
Do wide grip pullups and rear delt raises
Strengthen your core

And most importantly, don't do rows

Like the machine, right?

Was thinking of doing either that or weighted pullups, like you said.

Makes me feel like a fucking pussy, but my core is super weak thanks to being a fucking ambulocetus my entire life.

And suggestions on other ways to strengthen my core, without snapping my shit up again?

Is being 193cm/6'4 considered too long? Or is it a good height?

is it normal to feel a "tingling" sensation on the sides of my forearms and wrists while doing barbell rows? should I be worried or just power through it?

I've watched the videos and regularly form check myself in the mirror and as far as I can tell I'm doing everything correctly

If your gyms got an Olympic sized ez-bar you could try that, or just ad 20 lbs and use a regular stubby ez-bar.

Something about doing rows with a straight bar killed my wrist and elbow joints for days afterward when I started rows, ez-bar didn't cause the issues and now straight bar doesn't bother me as much.

I think tou need to learn the difference between a cuck and someone who was cheated on. If you didn't approve of your gf fucking other people and she did it behind your back, you aren't a cuck, you were cheated on. If you wanted her to fuck other people and supported her doing it, or are raising another man kid without knowing it, then you're a cuck.

If she's giving you the signals, try sending some back. If she responds well, then slip her the dick.

>Ectomorphic gym noob here
I just started lifting and eating a lot.
First picture about a 4 months ago (120lbs) and now (159lbs). Both not flexing.
This is the most I've ever weighed.

Can you guys rate my progress and physique?
Specifically - are my legs proportional to upper body?
I can post more flexed photos, but I may not have many old ones.

How can I become more autistic? I am sick of hanging around normies taking time from the gym and not making optimal gains due to my lack of interest in autismically programming my lifts. I also watch anime but I think I would get greater enjoyment out of it if I was more autistic. Plus, I need to learn math and computer programing languages for my major and austim would help me. I'm already a little awkward but how do I become a full on austsimo robot? Has anyone here had any successes becoming autistic?

Yes, I was fairly normie-ish before coming here. Watch more anime and just participate in threads until you start speaking in memes. I have used the terms "manlet" "j00cy" "fuarkin zyzz-brah" "eat big to get big C'MON" irl around normies at my university. The only reason they still occasionally talk to me is that I'm the least out of shape and am always down to eat garbage food.

Also try wearing a wedding band, people will just assume you're a married guy with no time to deal with typical uni life.
