does /fit/ do kegels?
ive done them for like 2 months now, ive noticed stronger ejac, being able to last longer and moving my dick up and down without my hands as benefits so far
>>38448650
How much/often do you do them?
>>38448757
every day. i have an app that tells me what to do.
also ive noticed i precum more, which is great for natural lube-age
>>38448768
what app?
>Average of 5 hours of sleep per night
A-am I not gonna make it /fit/?
>>38448639
no. you won't make it unless you stop jerking off at 2 in the morning.
That's 15 hours of lost sleep per week (assuming a 5-day week) based on the typical 8-hour sleep per day recommendation. You're gonna die young.
why only 5 hours? you can't sleep or you're too busy?

Still a dyel noobie, but on off days i still feel like I can go out and lift heavy. Should I be resting or is it okay to lift a little on rest days? (yes i already do cardio on rest days)
Your muscles dont grow during your workout. They grow when you rest. Baka desu
>>38448364
>How important are rest days for beginners?
As important as for everyone.
>>38448408
so i can do different muscle workouts each day?
bench on monday
OHP on tuesday and leave my chest muscles to grow
Why do female divers have such nice high test asses?
Because they exercise on an almost daily basis you retard.
>>38448855
Triple dubs confirm
>>38448855
Other women athletes don't have booty like that
Sup bros, recently started working out since I graduated from HS and I've gotta say, it's the best decision I've ever made.
One problem, though.. The shits are fucking horrible.
I thought it was just a meme, but every time I workout and consume protein/pwo I have violent magma shits.
Does this happen to anyone else? It seems like my body expels it so fast.
I was doing pl8 curl to warm up and get blood flowing an hour ago and on the 10th rep I almost shat myself.
(I have IBS if it matters)
I take C4 PWO and Muscle Milk Whey shake.
>>38448185
Pwo will give you the Shits m8. I tried taking even a non stimulant one and it happened.
Coffee is the only pre you need man.
>>38448185
eat more fiber with protean mang
>>38448203
Yeah I drink water and coffee all day, I just take the PWO since it has creatine and I'm out of my other creatine source.
Isn't the pump good for muscle growth though?
"Something something gotta get the blood in the muscles, right babe?"
Or am I just out of shape?
I've been going out running lately, and I can understand that I suck and have low stamina, and results take a while to come... BUT:
Is it normal to start coughing mucus? To have clogged nose/ears every single day? To spit white mucus after a while? To feel my lower trachea burn and as if I can't expand my lungs enough to breathe?
I feel like a fucking smoker but I don't smoke, in fact I fucking hate tobacco. I don't think I have asthma... or do I? I've never had an episode, but I often feel out of breath, when laying down or sitting, which is so fucking weird.
I just want to fucking run without feeling my chest explode. I don't even go full 5k, I just run for like 10 minutes and my legs and all feel fine, but I can only breathe in short rags, and I want to breathe deeply, but it's like someone's sitting on my chest and I can't expand my lungs further. It fucking sucks.
Do I just need to keep running? Is this shit normal? I am scared.
I've had asthma all my life (nearly 30 years now)
Asthma doesn't actually hinder physical performance like people think it does, that's all down to your own fitness level.
I can do HIIT, sprint up hills, run long distance, lift weights etc and have no problem with my asthma.
Then I'll be sitting at home resting and suddenly my asthma symptoms start and I need to take ventolin. Ive never had physical activity trigger my asthma, it's always just random, usually when im resting.
>>38448138
Thank you for sharing. I feel like an ignorant cunt now.
I thought asthma was a chronical inflamation of the bronchi, and made the "tubes" thicker making air passage harder.
So well I just need to run more, and all the mucus is normal I guess?
>>38448159
Mucus is prob diet/genetics related
>Let me in Anon.
So, I realized I haven't been to the dentist for 10 years... how fucked am I?
My teeth seem fine, I brush twice a day, etc. Who here forgets their dentists?
I go to the dentist once every year.
I brush twice a day and use mouthwash, when I wake up and before bed.
Just go to the dentist it'll only get worse the longer you leave it.
Twice a day isn't enough. You should be brushing 3 times minimum and flossing
Enjoy your cavities whenever you decide to go to the dentist
>>38448094
enjoy your fucked enamel for brushing so much
so where on the scale of "machines bad - free weights good" do cable machines fall? you still have to balance the bar
>>38447984
What the fuck is going on with his right lower leg?
Cable machines are perfectly viable for accessory exercises like pec flies or cable rows after heavy compound exercises with free weights.
If your main workout circles around isolation movements on cable machines you will go literally nowhere
>>38448083
yes I do both 50-50
my bulk was going good until i realised how much fat ive put on. so i started cutting.
2nd day into the cut and im already loosing strength. just so you're sure - i'm not crash dieting (~500kcal deficit, 20 minutes of cardio every second day, balanced no-meme diet).
my genes ain't good for bodybuilding but i just want to look good and i cant make any progress, ive been really lean once (~%) but ive lost all my muscle in the process and my only imressive bodypart was core...
any advice?
>>38447704
*impressive
*~8%
fuck this shit keyboard
>>38447704
bump?
>>38447704
People cutting after notice "fat gains" are the same that continue looking like DYELS.
Eat big, lift heavy, and keep it up. Don't cut.
>normies think these are muscles

>>38447674
Fuck he looks shit.
That is why I'll lift till I die.
considering most of the people that read this shit are chubby fat-ass, anybody who's remotely 'in shape' is muscly to them.
>>38447674
Setting the bar so high for fitness when you can't even do a pull up is kinda not proactive

Is this CNS adaptation? or am i actually gaining strength?
>>38447590
Why wouldn't it be strength?
>>38447590
CNS adaptation is strength...
>>38447686
>>38447679
i thought perhaps my body was already capable of this weight but i just wasn't mentally strong, as autistic as that may sound
i still feel like i have much more room ahead with my squats before i even plateau
