I cant even understand why tinytrip left such an impact on me, but he did.
i didnt even follow his posts that much back in the day,
he had it tough and made me realize that life isnt always sunshine eventhough youre ripped and shredded as fuck. and its always good to be reminded of that every once in a while.
so, yeah
where is he and how is he doing?
>>38816177
He left this toxic swamp and became a normie
>>38816177
Can someone post his routine?
>>38816177

Wait, why are you deloading? Are you eating enough? Resting enough?
>>38816134
OK, there's that answered.
But still, why are you deloading after failing at 45(kg or lb?) How many times do you try and fail before you start deloading?

What does /fit/ wear to the gym?
I'd wear that if the majin symbol didn't look so gay, didn't have a picture of vegeta on it, and had shitty dots all over it

The dots are holes in the fabric. Have you never played a sport...
How much could George Costanza bench?
well considering that it is mentioned in an episode that he can OHP 100 lbs, he probably benches mid high 100s.
George would stand next to 300 lbs and bullshit his way unsuccessfully in front of every fit babe that walked by.
I imagine he would wait for just the right moment where they're in visual range, make like he was just finishing the lift, grunting loudly and barely pushing the weight off the pegs.
He'd stand up all successful and puff his sweatshirt clad chest out and stick his foot on the bench, giving the women a wink and a tilted head-nod.
They get all gooey eyed, so at this point, George is starting to get into it. He puffs his chest out even more, starts to flex a bit. Does the Arnold pose, all the while the hot babes continue with the cooing and coy looks.
Confident, George begins to approach these HB8+s with the stride of someone eager to stick their dick into the room first while maintaining invisible lats posture.
A few steps into his deliberate gait, George is passed on each side by a huge Chad, he's roughly bumped by each as they pass.
The Chads take their women in their arms and saunter off to the sauna room to do things to each others buttholes that no one ever talks about.
This is how much George Costanza benches.

My first day at the gym sucked.
I chose the closest gym near me that had weights, and signed up.
Today, I went in after work, and tried to do Starting Strength. Squats, Bench Presses, and Deadlifts.
Someone was using the squat rack, and I heard that you shouldn't use smith machines. I could have taken one of the free weights and squatted by one of the bench-things by the dumbbells, but nobody else was and it felt silly.
When the squat rack freed up, I was only able to put on like ten pounds because I'm a goddamn weakling because that's why I'm going to the gym. One of the gym employees, who was helping someone else, told me that I should be facing the other way if I'm doing squats.
The bar fucking hurts my neck, and I couldn't figure out how to do a squat that felt right. All of the burn was in my arms, from holding up the goddamn weight.
Then I tried bench presses. I couldn't tell how far under the bar I should be. Should the bar be above my eyes when it's racked? Above my pecs? Whatever, I gripped it, unracked it, and tried doing up-down motions. My left elbow hurt a little bit and I was really wavery with the bar. There wasn't even any goddamn weights on. I felt like I might hit the rack-teeth (whatever the fuck you call them) if I went back too far, so I think I did weird bench presses.
Finally, deadlifts. I don't even fucking know how to do those, my gym didn't have a big mat or anything, and I know you're supposed to drop it on the floor when you're done but there wasn't any room for that. I took a free weight barbell, stood in front of the mirror, and just picked it up a few times. It felt like I was hurting my back.
The only positive thing that happened was that I got to stare at some black girl's ass on the treadmill in front of me, and she bent over to stretch with yoga pants riding up.
I wanna lift and get strong, but I'm feeling really discouraged. Should I look for another gym? Get a personal trainer? Am I gonna make it, /fit/?
>gif related
Jesus christ. Watch a goddamn youtube video.
The gym definately wasn't the problem. Get a personal trainer or take a some CrossFit classes.
I wish I could've seen this. How much did you try to deadlift?
>>38815683
if you want to make it don't let some dirty looks get in between you and your dreams

How do you develop that distinctly authentic fighter pecs? I had friends who were greco-roman wrestlers - they all had this chest look.
High pecs, no fat, pure muscle, no bullshit hypertrophy.
up
"how do i get my pecs to look genetically different?"
>>38815530
>no bullshit hypertrophy
>How do you develop that distinctly authentic fighter pecs?
what the fuck?
what is a good pre-workout that doesn't make your face sting?
>>38815512
it appears that the tingly feeling that many get from PWO comes from beta alinine, which actually isnt very beneficial for lifting, since scientific studies have shown that beta alinine helps for exercises that "take longer" aka like running, as opposed to lifting where youre really exercising for at max 30 seconds, and then resting
thus, beta alinine really isnt all that beneficial for your average gym rat out there
if you got the money, if you like the tingly feeling because its like a physical symptom that gets you pumped up and ready, psyching yourself for a great workout, then by all means, continue to get PWO with beta alinine
otherwise, just find a PWO without beta alinine or make your own PWO
or try just plain black coffee or caffeine pills
>>38815636
It's definitely the beta alanine. When I was around 14-15 my group of friends used to dose each other's drinks with it. Shit hurts like a bitch
Just reframe and associate the tingling with going super saiyan
Why do I feel so pent up all the time? I constantly want to smash things and scream.
>>38815447
you forgot to take the first /sip/ of the day.
Happens to the best of us my bro
>>38815447
get some therapy you faggot
Then go fuckin do it. Your being repressed by society.
You're a fucking man. A war ape. Civilizations were built and buried by your hand.
But you're told to just sit back, watch 30 rock, not look at women, and eat your cheeseburgers.
Look man.. if you need to scream at the top of your lungs and break something, do it.
how do i not feel like shit taking zinc? I tried taking it before my meal and once after a meal. ended up vomiting my brains out
tried for about a week and i feel like fuq taking it
>>38815424
Zinc is a meme if you go above 20 mg
>>38815424
If I give you a shell and call it an egg is it a whole egg?
>>38815424
You are only supposed to take a 50mg Zinc once a day.
Any more than that is poisoning yourself
Do any of you guys take modafinil or adderall? How has it improved your life?
Are your gains still there?
how do I get modafinil and ZMA?
willing to spend 100$
Nope. It's a waste of money, also you can tons of secondary effects like palpitations and even psychosis. Also it can easily trigger an hidden epilepsy. And don't forget about tolerance and the tons of shitty generic ones out there in the market.
Most of this scary stuff comes with many other drugs but the worst of all comes from not sleeping enough in a period of time.
Try small dosage of armodafinil instead, only as last resort (like studying for finals or for that busy day whre you only can lift at 11 am). t.medfag
>>38815407
Adderall was the most amazing thing in the world for me. I was such a great person while taking it.
Had my entire life planned out, my house was in top shape, I was in top shape, I was social and everyone liked me. I got promoted TWICE. I took initiative. I was on top of the world.
But it isn't worth it. It probably permanently fucked me over. Right now I'm trying to be the person I was on adderall without it, 2 years later, and it's difficult. You may get to the point you can't do anything without it. Like fucking showering in the morning.
I only took it 3x a week, and never on the weekends or back to back days. But still the tolerance came. I got some amazing job while taking it, then I ran out. Didn't go for more.
Don't do it. Try disciplining yourself.
/fit/ if i post my schedule will you give me fair criticism without just fucking yelling
need to make sure I'm hitting all muscle groups and i feel like I'm missing something
>>38815340
remove your trip and they wont yell

where do you think you are first thing first what about TFS
> I cant gain a single pound, no matter what I eat
Help
Shut up and eat more, pussy
>>38815173
Track what you eat using myfitnesspal or cronometer. It's common for skinny people to think they eat heaps when they really don't.
>>38815190
I feel like a eat alot, but i end up losing weight for some reason.
