These are epidemiological studies. The control group is a large sample of the general population and variables are controlled through logistic regression models to find the association of the variable desired. You're right, everything causes cancer. We live so long on average that inevitably some cancer will form. Just don't worry about it and get /fit.

pls respond

I'm doing the intermediate for about 5 months now and imho you're fucked without a pull-up bar.

>>36630822

what if i replace the things requiring a pullup bar by bent over row or dumbell pullover?

>is it fuckin safe to run 8km. cardio after 2 days of drinking?
No, you'll get mugged.

Is it safe to let her bounce her ass on my face?

Don't do it right after you finish drinking.
I ran 10 km after three days of drinking beer, eating crisps and playing vidya with something like three hours of sleep.
I couldn't keep a very good speed at all, got a stinging in my side after the fifth kilometer, and I just felt like dying all the time.

Diet and cardio

Dnp

Cut off an arm

If they never lifted a weight in their life theyll prob have no idea how heavy that is until they try it themselves. So not really.

Most of the people on /fit/ are hardcore gym rats. So to the average person anything over like 185 bench or 95 overhead looks impressive.

Even at my old college gym it was rare to see someone doing over 225 bench.

>1pl8 OHP with strict form
Pssssst I can squat more than that

t. Normie

definitely. once your start living a good life you won't care about what happened in the past. you'll be too busy enjoying yourself.

it goes both ways, though. if you're going through a miserable phase it doesn't help much if you used to have a good life.

>>36630239

not possible

but you should still do as >>36630281 says for the most part

>>36630239
How old are you?

Eating more is hard
Eating less is hard
Fatties have it easier for strength gains but skellies look aesthetic far more quickly

Fatties need to stay disciplined despite the fact that they will look like absolute shit for a good long while before anybody starts giving a shit.

Skellies start getting ottermode mires really quickly, which pumps you up mentally and makes you want to keep going.

Depends.

If you're machinist tier skelly then you're fucked and being super morbidly obese is just as bad.

I'll try to explain this as easily as possible.

Basically, when your muscles grow, your muscle cells expand in size. Once you stop lifting, they remain in this state for a while before they begin to shrink. However, since they have been in an enlarged state, they are stretched.

Imagine a fat dude losing all his weight. He is left with loose skin, since it has been expanded before from the inside. It would be easier for him to get fat again, since his skin is stretched already. There is no need for the cells to adapt and grow if he gains weight again.

The same goes for muscle cells. However, the longer you wait, the more time you leave them to regenerate.

I injured myself doing deadlifts and had to stop lifting for 6 months. Overconfidence and neglecting form will do this to you. So, once I started lifting again, I got bigger faster than before. Just an anecdote.

>>36629935
It's not what you did, but how long it lasted.

Old-time wrestlers, born in the 20s and 30s will advance like fucking crazy when introduced to lifting in their 80s.

Guys who lifted a few years, went on a break longer than they lifted and then lift again, won't get shit.

'Muscle memory' is the broscience way of saying 'large number of nuclei in your muscle cells left over from sattelite cells merging to repair damaged muscle'
If you were physically active for 15-20 years, you'll get a lot faster muscle protein synthesis, since you have a lot more nuclei to send out mRNA.

If you lifted for 3 years and got to a good squat and an OK bench press you propably didn't accumulate enough nuclei to matter.

Also, this guy is so full of shit, he sounds like a HAES or Vegan dipshit, only he speaks pure bro.

And he injured himself doing deadlift. Who the fuck does that?

>>36629915
I hate being near someone chewing gum. All the gross chewing noises they constantly make disgust me. I also hate chewing gum myself.

Chew tobacco you slack jawed faggot.

>>36629934
personally i don't make any noises when chewing gum and i rarely hear someone do, i think that person would have to be retarded to do so

>>36629869
I have im really strong

Look at that heffer in the background doing strength training instead of taking her fat ass outside for a jog

>>36629890
She could be endomorph and you don't know how much she lifts. She could be strong af we don't know.

I just made mine out of wood in the garage. I got everything including pullup bar and dip bar and 6 plates (and 100 pounds in smaller plates) for around 700.

Amazon is usually pretty cheap. I was getting the plates for 25 bucks when they sold out after I bought 3 for 50

The only downside if you can call it that is you have to go since it's right fucking there

>>36629847
I also just figured its a good investment since it would be SO much easier to hit the gym after work or before work, no travelling to gym , no waiting for equipment etc

I made my home gym for less than $400
I have 2 oly bars, an adjustable bench, two squat stands that have bench press height attachments, and 180 lbs of cast iron plates (I will buy more when needed)
Plus I bought some proper shoes
I have only been lifting for about 6 weeks so it was a small investment compared to spending $30 a month for a gym membership, after a year or so I would have paid the cost of my home gym and not have to pay any more
plus the weights are always available and I don't ever have to deal with people in a public gym

How about telling us which exercises you plan to do

I've been running exactly that for quite some time now and I really like it. Except the no upper body pump on lower days.

Yes, especially if you use mostly barbells.

>running
>not just doing brisk walks
Enjoy your fucked knees and zero benefit over walking.

>>36629795
>lifting heavy
>not just lifting less weight for more sets
Enjoy your fucked knees and zero benefit over high volume.

>>36630319
But that makes actual difference. Cardio is cardio, only real difference running has over brisk walks is it takes slightly less time. Also walking doesn't require special clothes and shoes.

>>36629670
Each training session is about 40-60 minutes long

>>36629670
no

>>36629670
Ask myfitnesspal
I'm pretty sure no, though

>barbell flies

>>36629526

All dumbbell workouts are pointless meme workouts. You have 4 variations of bench press and countless grip widths you can play with.

Dumbells are retarded. So are cables. If you want cable workouts buy a bowflex faggot.

>>36629521

My left arm is still bigger and stronger than my right after 6 months of barbell training. Pretty sure it's because I jerked off so much solely with my left arm even though I'm right handed. I don't think many people notice but I do and it sucks.

I can feel it while doing bench and ohp, right side is working way harder to catch up
