Hello /fit/ who or what motivated you to get off the couch and hit the gym?
>>37804561
Certainly not this gay shit
lol this question
the same thing that motivates a dope fiend to go find dope
I had always been a half-assed, active kid. When I was really little, I did soccer, then moved onto TKD for about 4 years. After my dad got arrested, and money became a lot tighter, we couldn't afford to do shit like that, so I just played vidya for a few years until we moved close to a YMCA and my mom was able to get a discounted family membership from her work. I fucked around doing random machine and bodyweight shit because they didn't allow anyone over 14 to do free weights and I got taken in by guys pushing those fake "Tobey Maguire's Spider-Man routine" or by Jujimufu before he started seriously lifting.
I made no gains, and the membership eventually expired, so I just started doing some cardio shit not knowing what the hell I was doing in terms of routine. Around that time I started browsing /b/, then realized that if I wanted to get laid in college, I'd need to start working out, so I started browsing /fit/ and been here ever since.
Zyzz was still around and posting at that time, so seeing his shit enticed me as a dipshit 18 year old, so he got me lifting more seriously
>tl;dr zyzz, but not anymore
This board is complete garbage.
You even make /o/ look good as far as interest boards go.
All of you should kill yourselves.
ummm...... haven't lurked here for years. Been checking it out over the last couple of days. It's not as good as it used to be.
>Leave /fit for 2 years
>Come back
>Harsh is in the sticky
>Leave /fit again
>>37804466
This is literally just a shitposting entertainment board. Most people just lurk here for like 10 minutes a day then fuck off; they don't have a reason to make the board good

Being on a high protein diet has some unwanted side effects that beget other unwanted side effects.
I want to know I'm not alone in this agony I have now found myself in and know what you have done to make it go away, what worked, what didnt work etc
Hemmerhoids.
Surely I cant be the only one.
>>37804436
What does your diet look like? Hemorrhoids are common in people who don't get enough fiber. A high protein diet shouldn't be all animal protein. Eat some beans and veggies.
>>37804436
I have trouble sleeping.
>>37804436
Prop your feet up on a stool when you take the Obama's to the pool. Shit will slip right out your poop-chute, no breakages, minimal pushing. 30 second evac and cleanup.
If your doo doo is still stubborn get some psyllium husk. Metamucil is your friend. Make sure you're getting enough water.
Is this legit? Or is it just a placebo?
Placebo. You get the same thing by eating normal oils in other foods. Just go to McDonald's and order a fish sandwich
>>37804431
It is not just a placebo. Fish oil and other oils from nuts, seeds, avocado, etc., help with heart health.
But the oil from fish is different and exceptionally good. Eat fish! It's good for your brain and heart.
>>37804468
Sorry, but you cannot get this from McDonald's.
>>37804431
Do you side with the plethora of scientific evidence, or some /fit/ anon who calls it a meme
Can a person stay fat while running 20+ miles per week?
I know based on calories it's technically possible, but is it likely?
>>37804344
If running 20+ miles per week and you're still on a calorie surplus, yes, you'll stay fat/get fatter.
Yes. 20 miles isnt even that long. After youve ran 20 miles for a couple of weeks you might be able to complete 20 miles in around 4 hours. Thats around 2000 calories worth of cardio. Concidering it only took the person 4 hours to complete as well it shouldnt even take time away from eating. My guess is the personshould be running at least 80 miles per week to be guaranteed not staying fat.
>>37804449
I see, so on the order of 10-12 miles, 6 days a week?
I calculated it at the site below and 12 hours at a 12 min/mile pace is like 2200 calories at a weight of 220.
I assume you're right, it would be pretty hard to stay fat burning that much per day.

Are these just a meme?
>>37804314
yes an overpriced meme
/thread
>>37804330
but they are tasty
>>37804314
The serving size is half. So you're eating double what's on the box.
How do you cope with a shit rotator cuff?
Look up rotator cuff stretches on youtube.
>>37804141
Try to strengthen and stretch the muscles out. Unfortunately, sometimes genetics are the issue and they need to go in there with a file and file down some bone.
just had this problem. do these three piss easy lifts:

Best way to get pumped for heavy squats?

watch some CBT
have any of you got ED from being on 4chan too much
everytime you click you get a dopamine release - i think being on too much fucks up your dopamine
>tfw all the (you)s from shitposting have broken my dick
>>37804004
well for one, everytime i get on 4chan i end up masterbating at least twice. Now include the mornings and late night faps, my dick doesn't even get fully erect anymore but idc i havent seen a vagina in months
>>37804004
I have been on 4chan for at least 4 hours a day for a year straight, and my dick is in the best condition it's ever been in.
I also fap 1-2 times a day to trannies and hentai. ED is a meme, probably a genetic thing
How to get rid of this shit?
Squeeze them.
>>37803946
I have them, i dont care.
Thinking about going on ADHD meds. Tried to pull off the discipline self to pay attention thing, it's not working.
Considering asking for a dexedrine prescription. How much will this harm my health? Sadly I'm at my wit's end. The anxiety and distraction has become too much so mood pills it is.
>>37803939
>Sadly I'm at my wit's end. The anxiety and distraction has become too much so mood pills it is.
how so
>>37803954
>how so
I am on here for 10+ hours per day, doing nothing. Wasting away.
Easy answer is to just get off and do something else, but that's not going to happen.
Everyone has different reactions of course, but you will wind up habituated on them. I asked for a perscription in HS because I thought it would make me a much better student. I started with Concerta (ritalin extended release), moved to adderall which after 6 months of that has me acting strangely. Finally I moved to dex, although similar to adderall, taking 40 mg per day after I moved out on my own with nothing to do, acting like a tweaker. I was basically dropped by all my friends for seeming like a drug addict. As an adult it would be different, but you will act in characteristic ways that people can spot.
When I quit I went into a fucking bad depression for a while as well. Health wise, it was hard to eat, body was strong, and endurance was good, but it made me smoke cigarettes like a fiend. I suspect it fucked with my hairline very badly but that might be a coincidence.
my parents
>anon you don't need to eat vegetables every day, you eat them too much, have french fries instead
How am I supposed to make it when they do this kind of shit to me? Fatties have no awareness at all
>>37803901
It sounds like TLC films your family for the entertainment of thin people.
My gf
> 160 lbs
> 5'3
I'll let you imagine what her eating habits are like.
>>37803901
Oh for fucks' sake, every goddamn day there is THIS thread in one form or another.
Listen kid: You at least of legal age? If yes then get a job and GTFO, live on your own somewhere, even if it's renting a room, and then you eat and do whatever the fuck you want.
Are you Underage b&? Have no job or money that's all yours? Skeezy NEET? Then TOUGH SHIT, you have to do the best you can until you're old enough to have a job and be able to take care of yourself. There is NOTHING you can do otherwise if you're not paying the bills. Sucks to be you.
you lot haven't bulked until you been to a black BBQ. Hitting MAD calories on chitlings, chips and ribs. Girls don't forgot about you too, you need an African back.
>>37803856
So you're telling me I haven't had real dick, until a black has me on my back and is giving me BBC?
The real question is, why are blacks so ugly?
>>37803856
holy shit that one nigger has TITS... fucking delete them from existence
What do you guys think of Greek yogurt for breakfast? I've been thinking on switching between Greek Yogurt and fruit for some time now and I read its pretty good diet-wise. Also, is drinking raw eggs before exercise good? Imo they taste bad but everyone has reccomended it to me.
>>37803520
Are you retarded?
Put fruit in your greek yoghurt
And don't drink raw eggs because that's fucking stupid
Can't even tell if I'm being baited, jesus christ
Greek 0% yogurt with a scoop and some fruit.
Never drink raw eggs you meme lord, it does nothing that cooking them won't.
>>37803592
Sorry mang, it was a serious question. No, I am not retarded, just curious. Thanks for the info tho.
