So today I was bored af and honestly tired of not having a place to lift cause gyms too expensive, so I went into my garage to try and do something productive and I settled on making a "proper" bench.
I have never been to a gym but seen some pics online so I threw this together.
The hollow aluminium bar withstood 26 kilos before snapping in half and for anyone wondering the tyres are 5kg each and I filled up 1.5L water bottles with sand and those weighed 2kg.
Guess I'll just get back to cardio and cali.... fuck my life

I've gone to Physical Therapy, an orthopedic surgeon, just about everything.
>Have a problem with injuries
>Pick up the teachings of Mark Rippetoe and Kelly Starrett
>Injuries stop for a while
>But as sure as rain...
>Problem is a pain coming from the lower Glutes and upper Hamstring (which in turn hurt the knees), along with the lower back.
>Only catch is that the pain seems to change sides every time
>Most recently, the pain only started when I was sedentary for a while (School Finals)
Just today, I experienced pain in my Right upper hamstring when preforming a normal squat, and a tingling sensation from my right hand when preforming a press
This shit is driving me crazy. It makes maintaining a regular workout schedule impossible and even gets in the way of every day life.
Should I just go ahead with Orthopedic surgery? Or is there another way?

You sure as fuck shouldn't do anything like that until you're 99% certain what your problem is.

A woman who died of altitude sickness while climbing Mount Everest took on the challenge to prove that 'vegans can do anything'.
Maria Strydom died on Saturday afternoon after having to turn back from the final leg of the expedition because she felt unwell.
She returned to Camp 4, the last camp before the mountain's summit, on Friday where she spent the night but died from lack of oxygen the following day.
The 34-year-old South African national taught at Monash University in Melbourne and was an experienced climber.
Her husband Robert Gropel is injured but, according to trip organisers, '100 per cent safe'.
Weeks before her death Dr Strydom told how she and her husband wanted to dispel the belief that vegans were 'weak' or 'malnourished' by taking on the climb.
'It seems that people have this warped idea of vegans being malnourished and weak.

I mean I hate vegans as much as the next guy, but this argument is retarded.
SO many people die on Everest, even experienced omnivore/carnivore climbers

This is like the ninth thread I've read in the last couple of days about this woman

Thoughts on Phrak's GreySkull LP variant for someone just beginning? Thinking about starting it soon.
Goals are mainly aesthetics. Pic related.

It's all right. I'd probably do the lower body exercise before the back exercise, as the low back quickly becomes the weak link when squatting or deadlifting, but not so much when rowing.
I think I like the original GSLP better though. There are also a bunch of cool variations form the author himself in the book, if you can get your hands on it.
Outstanding program all in all. More effective than Starting Strength, theoretically at least, although it does sacrifice a bit of simplicity to accomplish that.

>>37280709
Do you think I would be safe in adding some bicep/tricep accessories at the end? Maybe 3x10 barbell curls/extensions?
>>
>>37280955
As long as it doesn't detract any focus from the main exercises you should be fine.

Hey
My biggest problem right now is I suffer from strong anxiety around people because I don't feel manly in the least.
I'm 22, but weighing 120lbs and having a small face makes me look like a 14 years old who hasn't gone through puberty yet.
Is there anything, and I mean ANYTHING to age myself? I just want to look more masculine and older.
Living like this is fucking hell. I just want to look a couple of years older in the face.

The reason she died wasn't because she was vegan.
>>
>>37280551
Right, it was because she was a vegan who just happened to be weak.
>>
>>37280685
>>37280551
m8 if you take it that way, hundreds of people already died trying to climb Mount Everest.
The majority of them were meat eaters.
1 (that woman) or maybe a few more were vegan.
Applying your logic it would mean that meat eaters are weak and vegans are strong.

Is fruit actually good for you? I eat a ton of strawberries and blueberries, but I feel like the sugar content is probably about as bad as drinking a soda. Is there such a thing as good sugars?

>>37280457
yes, fructose is different than glucose. PLus fruit has vitamins, minerals, antooxidants and phyto nutrients.
>>
>>37280457
Don't drink the carbonated jew motherfucker, eat your fruits.
>>
>>37280457
The sugar in fruit is better, because it is not a "free sugar"
It is encased in fiber, which essentially negates all the detriment of sugar intake.
It just counts towards your daily carbohydrates intake, so as long as it doesnt affect your macros, it is fine.
Fruit juices, however, do count as free sugars, unless you were to mix psyllium husk or something similar in, to make it gooey.
Even then you are allowed to eat a good 75g of free sugars a day wi little to no consequence.
>>37280579
Nonsense.
Fructose and glucose are functionally identical.
Also please recognize that "sucrose" is basically 50% fructose and glucose, so it isnt different than either.
Sugar is sugar, the only factor that matters is glycemic load, which is determined by bioavailability, which is generally determined by fiber content

Wouldn't it be easier if you were a fat ass powerlifter with shit loads of muscle mass to just cut and be pretty jacked than to go from having very little fat or muscle straight to jacked?
I would think it depends on many factors i.e. genetics, build, program, diet, etc.
>>
>>37280523
Thats implying you already have muscle from years of powerlifting and sterons dipshit
>>
>>37280433
Makes no difference. Skinny people just dont understand how much they need to eat to be a high weight while fat people can just work out and see result by overeating as they always do.
Holy shit /fit/, I just started a German volume training regimen and started with DB deadlifts, 10x10 heavy and 10x10 light, and 4 days later I am sooooooo done with the doms.
First, erector spinae we so sore and infested with inflammation that I couldn't flex at the hips at all. Then after 3 days of dealing with that it has finally healed and now it feels as though my hamstrings are going to go through the same process
>whyme.jpeg
So now for the point of this thread, I understand that doms can be accelerated/diminished/avoided with inflammatory enzymes, does anybody shelter any information on this subject?
If not, got any general doms treatment tips?

You do realize that GVT is for roided lifters who have at least 3-4 years of experience, right? A natty beginner will end up in the hospital.
>>
>>37280295
This bullshit needs to end. It's a high volume program, yes, but it's not THAT high volume. I see plenty generic run-of-the-mill PPL splits or bro-splits that are worse. I've done GVT in the past and have several friends who have and it wasn't that bad.
>>37280274
Do a light workout to get some bloodflow to the area. Only thing that helps. Also, pretty stupid of you to jump straight into 10x10 without a transitioning protocol.
>>
>>37280338
Well I'm not exactly inexperienced when it comes to volume, for my first year of exercise I was going for athletic conditioning, (typically 20x3) then the next year I was strength training (typically 8-10x5 x3 exercises per group x2 per group per week), so I felt the transition to GVT wouldn't be very tough, but shit, I guess I was wrong.

This guy is the biggest scammer, besides starving yourself like a homo all day.
Google weighted chin ups and the first link is his website.
Weighted chin up standards
Decent – 0.2 x bw for 5
Good – 0.35x bw for 5
Warrior – 0.5x bw for 5
Greek God – 0.65x bw for 5
Superhero – 0.8x bw for 5
"If you can build up to the Warrior level, you’ll have a pretty damn solid back – you’ll appear powerful, capable and well developed."
I just hit warrior and I don't even look like I lift.
I'm going to need all kinds of rows and a strong deadlift to appear powerful or look like I lift.
I've seen his programs that he sells, they're all shit and have weighted chin ups as the main movement, it will never be enough to get a juicy back, one fucking lift
