I can attest to this with 5 years lifting under my belt.
I honestly think the whole meme behind it improving you socially is just reserved for normies, who already have at least a basic toolkit of social skills. It doesn't work if you simply cannot into interpersonal relations.
Whats the best thing (routine) to do while bulking? Something like a PPL, or something like a 5x5? Since im done doing my first cut, im thinking a PPL style routine with all the compound lifts of a 5x5 + lots of iso's that dont get worked on a routine like a 5x5 would bring me the most gains...
Since im still pretty skinny but with some strength, i think this plan paired with the surplus of clean calories and creatine about a month or two in is the best route.
What say ye? Post what routines if any, that you switch to when bulking.

Hey /fit/
tl;dr version: I can only seem to put on muscle and keep my blood sugar normal by eating some kind of fat (avocado, nuts) or animal protein (eggs, meat, full fat yogurt) with every meal.
Will this clog my arteries? Will I drop dead of a heart attack at forty?
the long version, with background:
I've struggled with hypoglycemia and being a hungry skellington my whole life.
I have Crohn's disease, and I end up with serious vitamin deficiencies if I'm not constantly taking prescription supplements. My doctor suspects I'm just not absorbing enough from my food.
Since I started lifting and working out, the problem has been getting more serious. If I can add an egg or two or similar to each of my meals, it really helps to stave off the hypoglycemia for extra couple of hours.
I know some ideas about the role of fats in nutrition have changed in the last couple of decades. However, as a child of the 80s I've had it drilled into me that eating like this will kill me, and that athletes thrive on diets like the Pritikin plan.
Are there any oldfags on here who can either tell me
"nah, it's fine, I've been eating bacon and eggs for thirty years" or "yeah, I ate bacon and eggs for thirty years, and now I've had four bypass surgeries"
?

Thats funny op because eating meat causes diabetes

3-6 eggs a day won't kill you. Nor will bacon.
It's all about portions. People eat way worse and somehow live a long time.

2 plates squat is the equivalent of benching 135. its the absolute beginner number. i'd say around 365 you'll see some real gains

Has anyone here successfully gotten with a fat/chubby gf and turned her fit/thicc?
I have a girl I can go serious with at the moment, but I want to know if it'll be worth the effort to lead her into fitness.
In every other way she's satisfactory to me, even the sex. My parents like her, her parents like me. She has absolutely no issue with me being completely masculine and dominant in the relationship.
We've been together about 7 months, and I want to get her healthy, especially since we both want to have kids down the line.
I don't have a problem leaving her, I've been through worse, but I would rather go through the effort of molding her into a healthy wife. I just want to know if it's been done before.
For the record, before I got with her I had just recently hit normie/acceptable bf% myself after living a life as a fatty, so I know that it can be done.

Take it from me, if a woman isn't capable of taking care of herself in her early 20's it only goes downhill. Most women don't have any sort of determination to takecare of themselves. They'll try for a few weeks then give up, and complain, and you'll grow to resent her. And that will be that.
>>
I'm in a similar situation bro. IDK if she can muster the willpower to make it. We've been trying, but she hasn't got the fitness mentality yet.
>>
>>38535201
>>38535206
If it helps paint a better picture, she's been doing a small amount of cardio regularly and consistently.
It's negligible in comparison to her eating, but she's at least built a habit of going to the gym.
We don't work out together due to work schedules, and she tells me often about how other girls stare at me when I'm with her.
I'm not talking about her doing this on her own, my intention is to effectively control her meals and influence directly what she cooks for herself. I'm leaving very little room for her agency, not because I don't think she can do it, but because I think me controlling her for a solid 2-3 months will set in the correct habits for her to be autonomous down afterwards.
The real question is if it'll actually work that way. I know studies on developing habits say that all it takes is 2-3 months time of consistency, but I'm unsure if that applies to directed/guided activities.
>just joined charter fitness
>most regulars are local high school kids and cardio normies
>mix of ghetto and well-to-do types
>dyels wearing singlets
>tfw all the lifters stick to their little groups
At least the PM crowd is like that
Shit sucks,at least there are some qts there though
And they have a few extra barbells
I wanna be able to get to know everbody and have a cool experience
Try to guess which charter fitness,maybe theres someone that goes there
What's your gym like?

I'm fucking laughing so hard at you bodybuilder fags pushing out twenty reps of literally dyel weights. Seriously, do you ACTUALLY think you can trick your muscles into getting bigger by lifting LESS weight? Just fucking lmao

All of those tests actually proved that high reps with high weights builds the most mass while strength training alone builds not as much at all.
Meaning that pure strength training is NOT the best way to build the most mass.
Have fun with that retarded misleading pic.

sarcoplasmic hypertrophy occurs at higher rep ranges so yes bodybuilders are getting bigger lifting less weight
keep in mind, less weight to a bodybuilder is still often more than your 1rm

Nicotine triggers insulin resistance, but at the same it inhibits aromatization.
Just quit tobacco altogether.

Why is inhibiting aromatization bad?
Isn't having high test good?

I'm dyel too nigga, I hit lmao2pl8 back a little under ~2.5 weeks ago. I'm at 260 now
I'm still adding weight to the bar every workout without stalling. in a spreadsheet I made I think I'm set to hit 3pl8 around november. given possible stalls, I think december sounds reasonable

There's 13 weeks until the start of December so if you increase the weight by 5 pounds per week then you'll make it and then some
You've got it brah
