if you're natty just lift comfortably heavy and enjoy not having to get your bloodwork done every 3 months.

You can achieve all that is 5 seconds.

Do people really not have 6-packs unless they flex?

>>38710077
All my goals are a lie. Why didn't anyone tell me. I feel betrayed by all you flexing faggots.

Sucking off men and stealing their gains.

>I can do about 20 lb squat and I'm completely exhausted after. For deadlift he recommends 90 lb, but I couldn't even lift the 90lb barbell off the rack (I ended up doing 40).

That seems very low for someone your size, you can always put the bar on the floor and then add the weight if you can't lift it off the rack, you're engaging different muscles so you shouldn't limit your deadlift based on what your triceps and biceps can lift. Getting tired is fine, you are working out after all, but if you find your self too exhausted to go on you should probably try to eat more so you can keep your energy up. You'll gain stamina as you continue to train though.

>Is it okay to start with roughly half of what he recommends, and just increment by 10 lbs every week or so (that's the smallest increment in my gym)?

If you can't physically lift the weight then you can't lift it. You can start as low as you want, and starting fairly low is not a bad idea so you can focus on your form instead of lifting the most you possibly can. Increasing 10lbs every week is probably not gonna happen unless you're just trying to figure out what your current max is. You should set goals for weight increases, but if you haven't master the exercise at your current weight then don't bump it up until you do.

>Second, I'm still pretty sore from Monday's workout and I'm sure tomorrow I'll be sore from Monday's and also today's. When will it stop? I can't even walk properly.

Once your body adjusts to the weights you're using. It usually takes about 1-2 weeks when you start, and then every time you up your weights you'll likely be sore for a few days.

>Third, how do I make sure my form is correct?

Stand by a mirror or take a video so you can monitor it while doing your exercises. Or if you know anyone more experienced get them to check your form.

>Finally, is there anything special I should be eating before or after?

Especially if your looking to bulk up, get some whey protein and have it after every workout. You don't want to eat anything right before or during your workout but make sure you're well-fed and maybe even have a snack 45-30 minutes beforehand. You won't have a very good time if you're hungry before your workout. If you trying to gain weight have a snack afterwards so your body has the resources it needs to start building muscle.

> If I don't eat protein immediately after is the workout "wasted" or something?

This is pretty much up for debate, though most research suggests that you should try to ingest most of your protein close to your workout time. It won't be "wasted" if you don't, but it's just less effective and there is no reason not to do it right after really.

This was helpful, thanks.

Using http://www.active.com/fitness/calculators/nutrition it says I should be at 71-246 grams of protein a day, is the lower end fine?

You can drop a whole heap by eating healthily and sitting on your fat ass.

Stacked with caffeine pills? Or by itself?

It doesn't really make you lose weight though

It marginally increases your metabolism and keeps your hunger at bay

Hope you're glad that you lose the natty card.

go away nippy

Count every calorie. Its the only thing that finally worked. Download myfitnesspal and just quick asd everything take your best guess if yu dont know and add 100

>>38709664
Why do you want to change? It's bc you realize your worth more. Start defining your own life and say this is for me. Ita OK to hate yourself but not to the point where you gI've up. Hate yourself bc your not where you want to be and use that passion to fuel you. See you on the other side. I have faith on you.

- ex fatty

because everything is a meme and no one understand the human body

Mixing it up can really make a difference. Really all it is honestly. Also you probably have good eating habits installed in you so probably are still eating a proper amount.

honestly dropping the whole "i can do only 3x5 or 4x8" mindset was what was holding me back as well.

you see the decent sized bros go in and they get fired up and they're like, "WOO BUDDY GO HIT THAT SHIT YEAH" and it'll be like their 15th set of bench and they'll be struggling to lock out 185 at this point but fucking works

>>38709576

Evidently neither do you. Everybody knows girls want three things.

FACE
FRAME
HEIGHT

But you're a beta GYMCEL who thinks he can get a loyal gf with his money. Meanwhile CHAD eats PIZZA and fucks your ONEITITS.

No disagreements here on my end OP.

look man, these folk all put in hard work to get where they are right now
respect the fact that you're different from them, they've all got their insecurities, but focusing on them instead of yourself is the wrong angle

how about you put in the hard work yourself? if they look that good, that means at least 1 year of consistent (and I do mean consistent) diet, as well as training.
Note that I say at least. Let's have this discussion again in a bunch of years, see if you really still are dyel etc etc whatever you were complaining about

put in the honest, hard work that it is, and these things change. The first thing that will _have_ to change is your defaitist mentality though, jfc

>>38709321

Just don't ever go to CBTs, it makes you feel like shit.

In fact, you should just avoid /fit/ altogether and just hit the gym. It will be much better for your sanity.
