How can I train to cross the English Channel by swimming? Is 3 years a reasonable amount of time to prep myself?

Yeah im here. Doing good. Don't think you can match normies on your gains, no matter what we are inferior and get fat easier in case you hit yourself with a shit ton of rapid acting insulin.

That's why I said 'control', though. Stuffing yourself with carbs is not a good idea anyway
Do you have a pump/cgm?
Is chewing gum for facial gains just a meme?

I've been chewing Turkish Falim gum maybe every other day for two months now, and I think I can see some changes in definition. Your jaw won't change unless you're really young, but it will strengthen your jaw muscles, which looks nice. Won't help too much of you're fat

It does help but not to much, you won't be arnold from chewing gums all day.

>>38512938
nah it works, just make sure you chew with one side til it's fatigued then you work the other side.
I increase resistance by adding another piece of gum.
Also try beef jerky.

Can you guys advice on a bar (best bang for bucks) for my homegym? Will be used for all kinds of lifts, not really heavy as I only bench press & squat 100Kg, and don't deadlift yet.

Rogue Ohio Power Bar

>>38512895
Too pricey for now in Europe.

>>38512901
In europe look for ATX barbells. I have the bulls bearing bar for oly but I hear the powerlifting bar is great too. Was only $450 in aus compared to $700 for rogue/pendley. ATX is made in europe I think.

How many times a week do you hit the gym, /fit/?
Is 3-4 times enough?

5 times.
3-4 is probably enough, it all depends on your goals. Besides that, oftener is of course going to get your bigger quicker.
>>
Five times a week for me. 3 is plenty for a new lifter though
>>
3 times is for people who got trolled into "muh strength"

whats wrong anon? i was reading forums and clinical trials for like weeks you cant really surprise me. i wanna keep my hair
My job is a physical labour. Shovel/spade work, mixing concrete, carrying heavy shit sometimes long distances, wheelbarrowing loads, other endurance type work. I am convinced that this "is enough" and don't need to go to the gym. Am I right or wrong?
>i also have protein shakes

I don't know man. What do you want? Do you want to look better? Do you want a hobby?
Do you want no social life?
>>
>>38512432
You are wrong. Manual labor will get you stronger, but won't have the same effect as specific, heavy weightlifting.
>>
>>38512432
If you that much physical labour I'd dedicate the free time to not become a dumb fuck and do some literate and cultural things.

rest in peace gains
You went in what's called catabolic damage.
You trained your body to muscle tear and over which means your body is literally destroying muscle in order to repair the tissue
>>
>>38512424
why would you even do curls if you know how to lift good with barbells.
I call bait on this one
>>
>>38512445
how long have you been lifting and do you do any form of curl?

Please can someone that''s not a troll help me. First of all yes I read the sticky a dozen times and for beginners it says it's best to do starting strength. But in every threads you see people calling others retards for doing SS and that it's a bad idea and useless.
I am 6'1" and about 138 lbs and want to gain muscle and have some aesthetic but I just don't know what program to do. Every time I ask in the QTDDTOT I get meme'd with SS + GOMAD.

Do starting strength with accessories
After each session do
5x10 DB flies
5x10 lateral raises
5x10 Curls
5x10 Triceps (only do these after OHP)
Chin-ups are dog shit for building a wide back. Do dumbbell rows alongside them. 5x10
>>
>>38512374
Starting strength is good for starters. I added some pullups/chinups and dips to it and was fine.
Especially since you are completly auschwitz mode you can even do SS+GOMAD
>>38512397
Don't think curls are needed at any time in any fitness career though.
>>
it doesn't matter what programme you're on as a beginner
just eat at a maximum calorific surplus, lift heavy and you're fine

Many men workout to deal with anger and depression, there's something deeply satisfying at a primal level about lifting heavy weights until you can barely move.

Let me start off by saying that I don't usually come to /fit/, so I have no idea if this particular topic has been discussed, an what is the general opinion about it.
I really hate to cook, and prepare food in general. I have no time, and if I cook it takes away a lot of time. I'm also poor.
Is Soylent (or similar products) a viable option health-wise?
Can I use it as a muscle gain diet, if I add more protein powder?
What is /fit/ general opinion about this kind of nutrition?
Please keep in mind that I'm poor, and have no time to cook. I know "real food" is better.

Any hydrolized food is shit for you and your stomach in the long run. Also, Soylent has an incredibly high glycemic index and several vitamin deficiencies, I will make you sick after a few months and probably diabetic in a few years.

It can be useful as an occasional meal replacement. Frequent use of it, especially over the long run, will do some very unpleasant things to your digestive system
