How do you know when to stop? My animes tell me that pushing beyond your limits - drawing on will or spiritual strength - cannot but strengthen the body. However, I recently got myself into a position where I couldn't move and had to suspend my diet for a week. Where's the line between that extra bit of effort and driving yourself into the ground? Where does the suffering that brings strength become that which brings weakness and sets training back?

The struggle isn't in pushing your limits, but accepting where your limits are and how to overcome them efficiently.
Also: FORM.

How bad is smoking for lifts and fitness level general (and realistically) speaking?

>>38920439
if you're into cardio it kills it.
i'm trying to stop because it yellows your teeth and kills some facegains.
as far as actual muscle developement it doesn't do much against you.

>>38920439
Smoked for 14 years then started vaping. went from needing 6 minutes to breathe between sets to having to set a timer because my breath was ready before my muscles

It's up to you tbqph familamily. My strongest was when I was still smoking but I had a more consistent schedule three years ago. before hurting my back at work I had noticeably less recovery times between sets and running was and is a viable option
>>
>>38920439
Tell you what, try this experiment:
Find a building on fire.
Go run inside it and start breathing the smoke deeply.
Do you pass out and/or die? Yes? THEN IT MUST BE BAD FOR YOUR HEALTH!

>smokers
Stop being delusional faggots already. You're a drug addict, just admit it and get into some sort of recovery program.

How do I stop masturbating? It doesn't make me a complete sperg like alot of the people in the nofap community say, but I've tried quitting recently and the fact that it was so impossily hard to go even 2-3 days really worries me.

Do it as if you are getting off of a drug and just slowly wain off it like once every two days and then increase the spacing. You shouldnt completely stop, but over doing is bad after a while.

>>38920327
also dont use porn, fapping is okay if you are not addicted to it but porn is overall bad for you

Ignore the advice to quit gradually, you will just relapse that way.

You have to quit cold turkey. Never spend time alone in your bedroom; from now on it is for sleeping and sleeping only. Get a hobby and commitments that will keep you out of the house, and if you want to read, go on the computer or just lie down, do it in your living room where other people can see you. Also, never take your phone to the toilet.

The first two to three weeks are the hardest, after that the anxiety will wear off and it will be way easier to abstain from fapping. If you last for 90 days, your brain will rewire its reward mechanisms and you won't be addicted to porn or masturbation anymore. After that point you will be able to enjoy a fap every once in a while without it becoming a several hours long binge-masturbation session. Just remember to stick to your imagination only.

Shitloads of curls.
If you do them right your forearms and biceps will grow, and nobody will look at your wrists.
Wear a big watch on one of them and be amazed at how no one gives a shit.
>>
>>38920221
I've struggled with this for a while OP, but this past summer I worked for a landscaping company and ended up laying a lot of stone patios. Since that, I've noticed that my wrists are considerably thicker, or at least much more filled out. I'm certain it was hammering stones into place all day that did it, especially since my right wrist is thicker than my left (right handed).

Unfortunately there's not a lot you can do for hypertrophy there, since it's mostly tendons. You can thicken up those tendons, but it means putting a lot of stress or your wrists, and in many directions if you really want to fill them out. Do some manual labor, take up fencing or rock climbing, really anything that really works the wrists and forearms.

And fucking EAT.

why do you take so long betwen reps
>>
>>38920212
For some reason with heavy squats I'm never confident I'm going to get the weight back up on the next rep, so I kind of have to psych myself up after every rep
>>
>>38920158
your form looks fine

ensure you're keeping the weight of the bar on your heels at all times. This is not only safer, but if you push through your heels, you unlock the famed "hip drive" of Rippetoe

also, sack up and stop taking such long breaks between reps. You're expending a bunch of energy by just chilling

Do you count carbs and fat?
If the macro ratio doesn't matter as long as you get enough protein and total cals wouldn't it be better to just count protein/calories and save time?

Growing muscle, recovering and making gains isn't just about eating protein. You need carbs for muscle growth, fats for hormone synthesis and vitamin absorption amongst many other things. A simple 50:35:15 is a good beginner IIFYM. Put as much work Intk your diet and recovery as your workout. Don't half ass this shit if you're serious

consistency is THE most important thing you could possibly have to make gains. I see people always spouting on about nutrition, routines, etc, but the real most important thing is CONSISTENCY.

Who here NEVER misses a workout? I find that whenever I have a groove going and miss, I don't feel like going the next time.

So, what are some tricks to staying consistent? keep in mind that people suffer from some serious anxiety, so we gotta help them bros

Depending on what your fitness goals are, joining a martial arts gym and taking regular scheduled classes could be a good thing to do.

Hi /fit/ I'm sure you'd know more about this... is there any evidence for permanently affecting your metabolism/hormones?


Because I know you guys always say "anyone can become fit!" But surely it's easier for some than others?

I mean... when I was 10-16 I was VERY fat and I slept very little. Now I'm 20 and look pretty bad(I'm working on it though), but is it possible that being a fatass with lack of sleep during my DEVELOPMENTAL stage caused me to have hormonal imbalances, worse fatstores etc?

I mean I couldn't possibly have been functioning with enough testosterone during puberty. Compared to someone healthy, who played sports during that age they're better off than me, right?

I'm almost starting to wonder if I never fully experienced puberty or my genetic potential. Considering running some test just to see where it goes.

Any truth to this or am I thinking of bs?
