I've never understood the motivation for working out.
If someday your muscles will disintegrate when you're old and gone, what's the point?
Please help me understand
>>38467214
The point, for me at least, is to be healthy and improve my quality of life for as long as possible.
I never want to be too weak to walk on my own or anything else that comes with aging.
I started lifting to help with my depression.
2 years later, and I still want to kill myself.
>>38467295
*too weak to be unable to walk on my own
Shit
Bump limit on old thread
Just started bulking after 3 months of lifting, and my lifts are still plateauing, how long to I keep at it before I switch to a non linear progression routine?
bump
why is my bench so shit?
185 Squat
210 Deadlift
75 OHP
90 Power clean
110 bench press
>>38466797
Your bench is right along with the rest of your stats. Just keep eating enough protein
How long approx would it take me to reach this... (cont in next post)
...from this?
never properly lifted just done some light calisthenics and tried to keep my bodyfat around ~15%.
at LEAST a week
>>38462284

My achilles tendon has started aching recently and my left knee aches all the time and is almost always swollen, especially after running
Should I take a break from running or will it go away in time? Kind of don't want to take a break though
>>38429890
Is it your left Achilles that hurts? If it's all on your left side you might need to start rolling a lot more and stretching frequently. Roll your feet on golf balls to see if it eases up your Achilles tightness as well. ICe you knees every day and slow your running right down and you may get away with not needing a break. Prob should have 1-2 days anyway while trying to rehab it. Good luck

Hey /fit/ I live in Japan and it's pretty expensive to eat protein unless I eat tofu and particularly natto (fermented soybeans). Other types of beans are pretty expensive so I don't eat them too much. One plus is I live in the middle of nowhere so vegetables are dirt cheap.
Nutrition of natto is:
1 pack (40g): 77kcal
Protein: 6.7g
Fat:3.6g
Carbs:4.7g
Should I just spend all of my money eating chicken or will this type of vegetable protein be okay?

R u Japanese
Buy whey on amazon

first for doing rows that tax your posterior chain is a waste of time
>>38468533
i do rows because they are useful for the sport i do.
>calves tight cramping up because hamstrings are tight
>bitch ex won't leave me alone
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
So what did we train today/are we training tomorrow lads?
>>38468494
>>38468509
>Tfw can't db row anymore because it puts too much stress on my low back as a unilateral movement
>You need a strength base before doing a bodybuilding/aesthetics routines
>Strength training is the best way for a natty to gain "aesthetics"
These statements are complete fucking nonsense yet you idiots keep perpetuating them and turning newbies into pseudo powerlifters.
There is also absolutely no fucking need to squat and deadlift if you don't want to.
>>38463385
Enjoy your pussy gains bitch
>>38463385
>yeah brah curls all day
Lel
>>38463385
Post a picture of your body with a timestamp, thanks.
Also, none says shit like you "quoted". All people say is that increasing weights aka linear overload is the best way to gain muscle mass for natties.
whose fault was it?

This is why I love my gym. Literally 10 bucks a month. So we have every ghetto / poor hood critter you can imagine. It's great because it keeps everyone in line, everyone is in there just trying to be prepared for the life they live. Petty shit like this never goes down.
Who else annoyed by people who cannot tolerate even the mildest of spice?
My roommate immediately spits out and panics about the spiciness of "weird food" like Thai and Korean.
Also, conversely, how do you increase tolerance so you can take on the obscenely hot, high-scoville stuff?
>>38467644
I know there's bitch-made people that get annoyed by the smallest things. But honestly, you get annoyed by other peoples' nociceptors' reaction to spice.
This world needs another genocide.
Those noodles are tasty. It made me cry though.
my roommates girlfriend freaks out and starts fanning her fucking tongue if black pepper is added to a dish, it's ridiculous. He and her constantly want to go out and eat with me and my girl but we have to go to places where the food tastes like watery gruel and we like really spicy stuff.
I know there's no such thing as spot reduction, but why do some people store a lot of far in one area but not in others?
Like I see guys who are skinny all over but gave a huge gut, or women who's lower body is much bigger than her upper body and vice-versa.
Is it a hormonal thing? A lack of certain vitamins or nutrients?
>>38467045
>skinny all over but gave a huge gut
I hate having this
>>38467045
> a lot of far
goddammit I meant fat*

np when are we runn
>>38465337
>you are not prepared
>>38465337
Okay, but only if you let me put my penis in your vagina, since that's the only point to any of this shit.
Reminder that genetics are everything
kid is way uglier than his father was though
>>38465209
Wow, his sons going to start a new bodybuilding renaissance.
He's already well into steve reves mode and he
s probably still natty.
>>38465209
Why? He doesn't look spectacular. Just like regular dude who lifts.
Anyone take supps or foods for cumloads to enhance flavor, quality, amount, taste?
I have not noticed anything other than hydration and fapping to influence load, though zinc improves potency (helped me knock up wife) and tobacco definitely makes flavor awful.
inb4 no homo. This thread is going full homo.
Just eat pineapple and you'll have tropical tasting cum in no time
>>38455701
I have tried this and according to my wife it does not work. I've also tasted my precum and noticed no difference.
>>38455708
try looking up different foods that alter the taste of sperm. I know I should be providing further information, but... one thing I can say for sure is to avoid seafood. it'll just make your semen taste fishy af
