All right /fit/ how did you decide on your routine? Did you do tons of research, did you experiment on what was best or did you just ask? How long did it take?

Improvise in gym. Looked at general powerlifts and decided to give them a try, take out ones I don't like. Now it goes:
Front squat 3x5 strength
OHP 3x5 strength
OHP on lighter weight to failure
Chin up to failure
Do that 2x a week
Then deadlift once a week with RDL accessory work and some cardio/speedbag
Sounds good enough for now.

>inb4 you don't bench bro?
I'm 6'0" and every single day I think how much happier I would be in my body if I was taller. Do I have body dysmorphia?
Every time someone taller than me walks past me on the street I start to daydream about how great it would be to be 6'3" or so. It's all I can think about in crowds.

6'1" is the sane maximum.
Normal beds are still long enough and the list goes on.

Why does that Turbo Manlet crack me up so?
>>
You're nuts, just think how much harder it would be for you to shop for clothes if you were any taller. Plus, I'm only 177 cm and sometimes I hit my head in small cars. I worked in a snowplow crew once, and that shovel was a couple inches shorter than optimal. I had to bend over uncomfortably to use it right. I worked in a grocery store and stocking the bottom rows are hard enough. Actually, I'm probably just tall enough to get the top shelves, maybe an inch or two for some off them would help.

FPH threads are mandatory to motivate us on what we should never become or, for some anons, to motivate them on what they should never be ever again.

I'm rehabbing a snap from no bracing. Yeah okay, if you do it wrong you will snap, let's not deny that.
Do it right and you won't snap. Simple as that.
Chances are you're bracing wrong.

Whats good everyone. Junior in college, and im finally ready to start going to the gym seriously. But where do I start? I usually do some light lifting and then jog for 25-40 minutes a couple times a week. But I havent done this since my freshman year. Currently skinny fat. But I wanna put some serious muscle on. Any pointers?

Yes. I'm not sure I can explain how, just try a workout that is just hard enough to take your mind off of anything but the workout

and the worst part is that you beat yourself up mentally for those 8 hours.. i know that feel anon. and it feels bad
>>
>>38873380
Mental work is harder to do unless you're authentically interested in it.
How do I go about loosing these? Have had man-boobs as long as I can remember. I just want to have a fit chest and be able to take my shirt off without getting funny looks. Started going back to the gym after 2 years. Been doing dumbbell flys and bench press, is there anything else I can do to loose them?
More details:
>21 yo
>260lbs / 117 kgs
>6'5" / 195cm
>work out 6days /week (started going back to the gym 1.5 weeks ago)

Strength training will not magically reshape your chest. The only answers here are fat loss or surgery.

I've been cutting for 59 days.
The last two days I gave into urges and ate at maintenance.
What the fuck do I do?
I'm thinking about going for a 3 hour jog.

Mah nigga.
I was playing this from 2004-2010 while everyone else got their hand held by wow.
This was a true man's mmo where they wouldn't tell you how to do anything and you had to figure it out yourself.

My negroes. This game will always and forever be the greatest gaming experience I've ever had. Made so many great friends, two of which I still stay in contact with to this day through Normiebook.
But to answer your question, OP, just continue your cut normally. You may have stalled your weight loss a teensy bit, but just get back on it and don't try to starve yourself. You're gonna be fine.
