So que the shit storm- if you had little time/ energy from being dad/husband/blue collar slave but want to go bane mode, what would you do to maximize the little time you had?
>>36574503
find out how to work out while you're at work?
>>36574503
It's hard, mang. I could hardly keep up a 4 day routine working 12 hour days - and I don't have a wife and kid.
Your schedule is literally packed, and I'm guessing your job is physically intense enough that you're going to have trouble recovering from shit like DL's and squats.
Gotta go with:
>>36574523
Try the startbodyweight program here:
>>36573383
It's a quick routine with solid progression, you could honesty break it up and do it throughout your day. I'd say try it two-days-on-one-day-off at first, then work up to every day once you get a handle on it.
After you get deep into it, you can just grease-the-groove and do pull-ups or one-armed push-ups whenever you feel like it.
>>36574503
Home gym l guess. It would save you lots of time, work, come home, lift. Don't workout more than 60 minutes, seriously, lifting is all about diet, sticking to a routine is easy, the hardest part is your fukken job

Fucked a crazy fat Korean chick. Don't do this bros.
Reminder that when it comes to attracting girls, money trumps gains envery time.
beign jacked with money is the w8 to go breh.
if you manage to attract a girl just because of your money then she is not worth it

Approximately how many more pounds of body fat do you think I need to lose to see visible abs? I feel like I'm somewhat lean enough that I should be able to see them. Maybe I just have shitty genetics... Feels bad man
you look really good, it's probably just your genetics. isolate abs if you want but don't cut.
>>36574203
That's the thing, i do abs just about everyday and see no progress. I don't want to lean out anymore because I don't want to lose any more size just to find out I still can't see my abs
>>36574184
you and I have the same body. Im lurking in this thread to find an answer too man. I hit abs hard as fuck every single day and I eat really lean. Nothing man. If I flex I can kinda see a 4 pack but thats it. Been at it almost a year feelsbadman.jpg
pretty sure we just got fucked with genetics.
>started working out not too long ago
>abs starting to come in
>uneven insertions
It's still worth it though, r-right?
no, just kill yourself. U're fugged
Just go bear mode
Of course it's worth it.
If you can't do anything about it, why worry about it? If someone says something about it (which they won't) just ask them to show you their abs, that should shut them up real quick
TFW I am immortal BC all I eat every day for breakfast, lunch, snacks, and dinner is celery and I will literally live forever because of it. So tell me, /fit/, why haven't you joined the celerykin master race yet? What is your excuse?
>>36574168
I lost 120 pounds only eating celery and carrots.
>>36574168
Id rather eat broccoli
Why even bother eating? Would probably be easier to starve to death than attempt to survive off celery.
Where do u bros get your button ups that don't need to be tucked in for clubbing and Vegas

There are only two types of cammies, you non combat fuck.
Field cammies and cammies that aren't field cammies yet.
Time to cut the lard off my bulky ass
What's the best way to maintain as much muscle as i can? Diets, workouts (train for strength or hypertrophy?)
Brotein amounts? Does it really need to be 1.5×lb or is that a meme
natty only pls
Sticky
>>36573811
>1.5g/lb of protein
Holy shit, would people stop upping the meme.
It's 1g/kg.
>Strength or hypertrophy?
For us natties, strength IS hypertrophy.
On a cut, my best advice is to keep doing your current routine, minus any deloading. When you struggle maintaining your reps, add more sets si that your total reps remains the same.
Also, sleep and hydration will become more important than ever.
>>36573811
Typical numbers cited for protein consumption are 0.8g/lb. You typically need more protein on a cut than a bulk. This number ensures that regardless of caloric intake you are meeting your protein needs. With regards to training, there are different philosophies. I train the same way on a cut as a bulk, and lower the weight if necessary.
How do I make this shit taste good? Or at least enjoyable to eat.
The texture makes me want to vomit and the taste is far from the best, should I just dump sugar into it like has been suggested? Water vs Milk? Cooking it in a pot on the hob vs the microwave?
blend it dry to powder and drink
or
+ honey + milk + banana and eat
also mix with whey and buy good osts, they taste different
have a nice day anon
>>36573410
How can I tell if I've bought "good" oats? I'm taking it for granted that price isn't always indicative.
And do I just go with unflavoured whey for mixing into my meals?
Mixed 1 cup with unsweetened cashew milk, tbsp of cocoa powder, scoop of protons, 2 tbsp of sugar free chocolate syrup, 2 tbsp maple syrup. Let it marinate overnight.
Still tasted like cardboard.
Is it okay if I just buy the whey protein from Walmart? or should I get the more expensive brand?
Off brand "whey" is often expired cake mix.
>>36573405
Are you shitting me?
>>36573551
Roses are red.
Korean girls are hot.
The internet is full of lies.
But I shit you not.
No I'm just kidding. Walmart whey is fine.

I don't understand the question
About 8 months ago I got an ankle injury that I ignored and continued training through. After a month of that, I sprained the other one and got to the point where normal movement was excruciating.
4 months in I got into Physical Therapy, 6 months I slowly started training again. I'm currently 23, started martial arts at 12 and lifting at 16 and have been fairly consistent with both since. I've actually tailored my entire life around martial arts, plan to open a school someday and went for movement related formal education.
Last week I was back to lifting and jogging about where I was before I had to take a hiatus, and back at about half my martial arts load.
Then over the weekend I reinjured my ankle playing with my cousins at Easter. I basically just broke down, this is worse than a break up, worse than failing. I feel like someone is kicking me repeatedly in my heart's groin.
Has anyone had to deal with this? All I want to do is train, and all I can do is sit here and waste away. What do I do guys?
>>36573290
Let your injuries fucking heal and take a break, if not you're gonna continue to fuck your shit up worse than it already is man.
>>36573290
>I reinjured my ankle playing with my cousins at Easter
Kek
>>36573290
If I've learned anything from being an athlete with aspirations, it's that your body is yours to expend. If you want to risk injury dicking around with your friends or playing soccer or whatever, you're free to do it. But you have to think about potentially having to bail out of your sport prematurely.
I've had friends that have washed out because they wanted to play high school sports and hurt themselves. Or they roughhoused with their siblings and snapped their shit. Or decided to go out trailrunning only to fall as displace their patella.
Is it worth it? Save it for the mat.
i just had to make a vegan dinner because i have no meat and it was delicious!
i had baked sweet potato and it was so crispy and pasta
it tasted so delicious and was a change from my usual meat dinners. I may turn vegan senpaitachi
I am glad you had a nice supper.
>>36573235
I'm glad you enjoyed yourself, but..is that all you ate? Because it was str8 carbs m8
>>36574695
pasta has a decent amount of protein, this is coming from a vegan.
but yeah OP, lentils, beans, chickpeas, rice, sweet potatoes and regular potatoes, nuts, I eat all those every day and I get around 100g of protein without even worrying about it, plus you get more energy on the lifestyle, arteries get cleared up, stool is great kek
