Wut

>>38562887
What happens if you put 115 pounds on the bar and try to bench press it for 5 reps?

>>38562912
Yeah, when I hold the bar lying down and try to do it, it just feels wrong and unstable
Like I'd have to put more effort in doing that than actually lifting the weight

>>38562871

Be rich.

Problem solved.

Since you can go heavy on rows, they're considered a good exercise for mass, whereas pullups are considered an exercise for width since they primarily target your lats.

Also, you're probably doing Yates rows which require a lot more stability in the lower back region, OR your back is going way too low, and that isn't good since you're hanging the weight off and not letting it drop to the ground like a Pendlay row - do Pendlay rows for a few weeks and just focus on your form, lower the weight and work back up with good form, I can't stress how important good form is, especially when you're doing compounds that stress certain areas of your body more than others.

Make sure you're drinking enough water in between sets and keeping your body hydrated, what you might be experiencing is an exertion headache, read about it.

tl;dr do Pendlay rows instead and add pullups to the end of workout A.

>>38563055
Thank you very much. I think that's the most civil, informed, and straightforward answer I've ever gotten on /fit/.

May your gains be mighty and your cuts short.

As other anon said, pullups are great but mostly focus on lats. Shouldn't you be doing them in SL already? Chinups are often added in SS anyway.

The nice thing about rows is that there are multiple ways to do them. Pendlay rows always get recommended and they're a great exercise but a lot of people also complain the form just feels awkward.
What you can also try:
- T-Bar rows, there are some stations with horizontal support in gyms
- landmine rows also called Meadows rows (those are my favorites)
- dumbbell rows
- cable rows, high or low angles
- last resort, machines

Anywhere from the 80s to now looks good on clean, aesthetic pussy.

Shaved or trimmed thinly, no more than a few millimeters long

>>38562637
If you're fat, shave. If you're not, just don't have a fucking bush

>>38562538
As a beginner lifter you will still gain muscle mass and strength, even while cutting. You stop doing a program when it stops working, despite adequate nutrition, rest, form, and actual adherence to the program.

1/2/3/4

Don't cut on SS, don't cut unless you have muscle or are ridiculously fat. If you are fat just diet and cardio until you are skinny enough, then start SS.

Also i have no idea don't listen to me.

500 lb squat

broad shoulders is related to bone not muscularity.

you don't develop it, you are born with it.

>>38562543
why do all swimmers have broad shoulders then?

>>38562551
I read it's because having broad shoulders is a huge advantage.

It's like asking why are basketball players always tall.

>>38562444
what about caffeine pills?

Caffeine pills man or caffine powder is so much cheaper.

>tfw blonde and ginger hair beard
B-but I have dark brown hair

My beard is ginger and my hair is brown. It was never a big issue.

My beard is brown and my hair is increasingly non-existent.

I moved out at 18 and got a job in construction.

>>38562258
Well, for starters-

I live alone inside a basement.
Or rather, the guy up top lets me.

Watch a lot of movies here and there, think the latest I saw was Mad Max, not sure, but-

Last time I went to visit my parents, it didn't go quite well. I had gotten some well earned gains over the years I was away, and it sort of turned out like this.

>Get out of taxi.
>Apartment is right in front of me.
>Sigh a bit, walk up the stairs and knock on the door.
>Sis answers up with her usual wart-nosed self.
>We hug, talk a bit, the hobble inside.
>Mom and dad are sitting there, all hunchbacked and whatnot.
>Soon as they see me, they go Green Goblin levels of ballistic.
>Mom starts crying that I've become a meathead like my brother, and Dad starts getting real pissy yelling how I should be studying instead of working out.
>I explain to them that being skinny as fuck helps out with my confidence and generally made the first year of college more bearable.
>The arguing continues, until Dad finally snaps, and hops out the chair after me.
>"Well, since you're not in college right now, I guess you won't need THIS!"
>He makes a swiping movement, and all of a sudden, my calf feels weaker and lighter.
>I look down
>the SOB took my gains.
>Mom leaps up, shoves me down on the ground, her gnarled hands trying to pin me as she sobs screaming for her "brainy boy to come back"
>Sis holds me down, and at this point, I was about to shit bricks.
>I'm attempting to get up, but dad's ripping my gains away like it's nobody's business.
>Small flesh colored blobs fly all over the place, my precious gains taken from me as I become weaker.
>Finally, I'm back to my DYEL form again, and Dad tells me if I ever go back to lifting again, he's gonna send my brother to live with me.
>I get up shakily, my clothes are 3-times smaller than before.
>I watlz my ass outta town and go back home.

Seriously man, just find your own place and stick to it.

I'm still getting my gains back.

>>38562343
>Seriously man, just find your own place and stick to it.

i can't find a fucking job

i don't have any friends, no gf i have nothing besides some mediocre gains. fuck this life man i'm so tired of my gains goblin parents but i have no where to go

>>Mom starts crying that I've become a meathead like my brother, and Dad starts getting real pissy yelling how I should be studying instead of working out.

i know that feel bro,

>Be bulking
>Mom keeps insulting me for putting on some fat and telling me it's as if i don't go to the gym

>Be lean
>Mom says I look kind of small and maybe i should work out more

Meanwhile she's obese

>>38562254
You will stall pretty quickly, now gtfo.

>>38562254
at maintainence you'll get a bit stronger then just plateau. But really, if you aren't bulking, you can't program as you're supposed to so it's not SS

>>38562254
>What'll happen if I do SS without bulking?
You will gain muscle and strength at a lower rate

>Will I get stronger and aesthetic?
You will only get stronger

Or will I only be aesthetic if I do isolates?
Don't over-squat or deadlift and you'll be fine, unless you are into big legs and small torsos

Cupcakes aren't a vegetable fatty fat

>>38562168
>>38562168
Nope, it's strictly been water and vegetables.

>>38562180
>Eating too much
Or
>All of it is water weight
Start counting calories

>>38562156
Or you could just not eat like a pig and your stomach will shrink because it is not holding so much food at a time

No reputable doctor is gonna give you gastric bypass unless you're fat as fuck. Even then, they'll try to get you to diet and exercise until finally giving up and shrinking your stomach. And even then, it's no guarantee you'll lose weight. Chris Christie got it done 3 and a half years ago and he's still fat as fatass

>>38562156
god damn i would even do the most grueling diet than get my intestines mutilated and rearranged like this.

You should aim for 0.42 times your weight in lbs for fat so in your case it would be around 60g.

>>38562126
p much this

whats the best website to calculate cals quickly? I cant use apps
