So the thread over on /v/ yesterday encouraged me to post here. Don't worry, it gets to the fitness part soon enough.

>Be me, 16
>200lbs+ at 178cm tall
>Katawa Shoujo is released.
>Not really a big fan of anime or of visual novels in general.
>But this time one of my friends encourages me to try the game out after showing me a meme of this girl with prosthetic legs lying on the ground and it said something about "WHAT ARE THOOOOSE"
>Give it a shot, no harm done right?
>Download game, start playing
>Don't really see appeal of the game at first, but then I start getting invested in this legless character Emi.
>Spend time with her, go out on dates with her, do anal with her, eventually she opens up about her emotional past to me, and how she lost her legs and her father.
>I get the "good ending"
>In the game, the main character has chronic arrhythmia and would go for morning runs with Emi every weekday to train his heart.
>Decide to start doing the same thing myself. I don't have chronic arrhythmia, but I have occasional heart palpitations when I'm exercising. I've tried going to the gym, doing home workouts, playing outside, but i never had the motivation to continue doing these things.
>Get up 6:00
>Make small breakfast
>Go for a run.
>The background on my phone has been changed to Emi (image related) so I know she's running with me as my running partner.
>Start losing weight
>Start to watch my diet
>Eat more protein
>Now you can actually see my abdominal muscles
>Everyone asks me why I don't have a girlfriend yet
>"I have my reasons."

Katawa Shoujo saved my social life and probably stopped me from being overweight or obese for the rest of my life. Any similar stories here?

Two and a half weeks into keto.

Typically I give up two weeks in due to cravings, although so far I've had the willpower to keep it together

I've done it a few times, I feel like shit the whole time. it's too hard uguu~~ ill stick to weight watchers

>>37984980
It's extremely unhealthy. You're prioritizing saturated fats and cholesterol instead of vitamins and minerals and carbs, the brains food.

Plus it's literally a rich white guy diet.

But hey, enjoy diabetes, heart failure and high blood pressure eventually. I'm starting to think that is what it will take for you keto babies to get your heads straight.

How detrimental is kyphosis to oly lifting?

I've been stretching every day and all sorts and it's better than when I started but I'll never be able to get a beautifully straight spine.

I'm way too old and not genetically built for it, so I've made my peace with never going to the Olympics but can I at least be competent.

>>37966885
same here. my back will never be straight in the front rack and i've come to terms with it.

i have had no ill effects lifting through it so i'd say keep going

So I'm not on gear but I don't see why it is so taboo. The reason that they are illegal is because they can be detrimental to health, right? The same government that allows the sale of nicotine and alcohol and has allowed fast food to flourish and shovels shit into us at public schools is now suddenly invested in our health? What the fuck. Why dont i get to choose what to do with my own body while the fucking fatties get to go to mcdonalds and destroy themselves and our health care system?

Hey /fit/ I'm in a pretty fucked up situation. I'm 24 and this is the first time I fell in love. We were seeing each other for some time, then I got really sick, stopped working out, couldn't eat, vomited a lot and lost 20+ lbs. This was more than half a year ago. She decided we should just be friends. Now, I'm finally over the sickness, but I'm not over her at all, even banged other chicks but it doesn't help. I love her and think about her every day. Please tell me getting back in shape, improving myself, getting some money, getting new clothes etc, becoming the man I was is gonna get her back. I feel my heart jump out of my chest when I look at her pictures, when I remember the times we had...What's the best way to get her back? I've even been to the psychologist because of it. I'm fucking done.

Do all that shit you think will win her back and by the time it's done you probably won't give a shit and will be fit and rich for some other chick who actually gives a fuck.

btw, we still contact each other a lot, we work on a same shift and we exchange messages all the time, but she just sees me as a friend I guess..

she doesn't see you as a friend, she sees you as an emergency back up plan.

have some fucking respect for yourself

Dropping all calf exercises from my routine after 4 years lifting.

Always felt like training them has never done anything.....I was successful with dropping shrugs 1.5 years ago and thus far seen continuous development of traps from deadlift/press.


Wish me luck boys

Never liked calf exercises myself either, as overdeveloped calves look gross tbqh, however I'll still do 3 sets of seated calf raises for 20 reps every leg day, just for the hell of it

OP here.

I actually find calves to be important for overall balance. But as I said, I feel like lifting has done nothing for me.


I always do 30minutes of cardio everyday for health purposes ( after lifting ) and even with that, my calves don't seem to have grown.


But then again I might have muscle dismorphia. I honestly don't remember the size of my calves pre-lifting. All I know is that I've progressively overloaded them like every other muscle, tried all different rep ranges, training them everyday etc. Nothing seems to change their appearance.


What bugs me is that when I make PR's on other lifts, the muscles associated with them seem to mature/develop/grow. For example if I gained 10kg on my squat, I notice a difference on my quads,hamstrings, glutes......but with calf-exercise and making PRs on them ??
Nope, I can progressively overload them all year round and they don't seem to change lol. Shits fucked mate.

Okay, folks. I'm a fat fuck. I'm working on the whole CICO thing, trying to eat about 1500 calories a day at 6' and 210 pounds and walking 3-4 miles. Ideally I'd like to cut that down to around 1200, but I'm fucking hungry as shit all the time anyway.

Now, the obvious choice here is to change my diet so that it's mostly protein. Great! I love meat and beans. But the shit's fucking expensive, and I'm a complete poorfag.

I already eat a lot of chicken and beans. My farts can wilt flowers. What else is cheap as hell and will fill me up all day?

cut slower
1800 kcals is a good minimum

eat more green vegetablea
switch carbs for saturated fat. it's what you're burning off your ass anyway.
>>
>>37990747
Anon, I want to punch the goddamn mirror when I look at it. Cutting slower makes that take longer. So what if I lose some fucking muscle along with the fat? It's easier to bulk up than cut down.

Can't post a pic now but I'm 6'2, around 205lbs and a bit of bodyfat. 15-17% body fat I can still see abs and definition

Don't get discouraged anon just eat a fuck load of food and lift heavy. I plateaued and felt like I was going no where around the 1 year mark of lifting, now recently I've broken those plateaus and people have been telling me I got huge.

Keep lifting and eating senpai, you'll make it

Other than being able to move more weight what is good about low bar?

I can squat 500 raw high bar. I havemt maxed at low bar but its probably around 550. Put some knee wraps on me and a low bar squat and im probably at 600. Though im not really interested in wraps.

Tl;dr why would anyone lowbar over high?

>>37987772
Some people feel more comfortable doing low bar.
Some people like moving more weight, maybe for powerlifting or other reasons.
>>
>>37987772

Its slightly less taxing on the knees and, in tradeoff, slightly more taxing on either the hips or lower back depending on how you set up.

Unless you're competing in either PL or OL, that's about all the difference it makes.

My lower back is shit so anything which has a slight benefit I'm hitting
