By gripping heavier and heavier things

Hold the bar for as long as you can at the top of a deadlift. Worked for me anyway.

FUCK SITUPS!
Seriously, situps are so fucking lame and boring and fucking GAY.
Whenever I try to do them it allways feels wrong.
Fuck doing them without some padding, I want my tailbone to last atleast two more years.
I get fucking sick if I've god forbid drank some water during my previous lifts.
They're too easy and I don't feel any burn (other than the acid reflux it causes) if I do them horizontaly.
It feels like my fucking back or thighs are doing all the work if I do them on an decline bench.
All those hanging legraising shits also suck a fat dick, fucking hell!
HOW do I work out my abs without wanting too kill myself, I do deadlifts and all other core lifts with a smile on my face and a raging boner in my shorts, but fucking abs man...FUCKING ABS!!!!!!! REEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!
>tl;dr: fuck situps, plz help me work my abs without wanting to kill myself.

Hang on bar and do leg raises you pleb. Straight legged for more intensity, bring your knees to your torso if you cant do that. Also planks.
>>
dumbbell curls
id rather do 100 sets of front squats.
barbell curls aren't as bad, but fuck...something about dumbbell curls...
>gonna go on a 4 month Mexico to Canada hiking trip
>ottermode and don't want to slip back into Auschwitz, Germany.
How cucked am I gonna be by the end of this trip? Should I say goodbye to my gains? Anything I can do to not go full skelly mode?
I was thinking of doing pushups and pull ups with my pack on, curling seam sealed water filled bags, and doing handstand dips for shoulders. I'll also try and keep my calories up as much as I can

It's called a flush set and it promotes the flow of nutrients into the (exhausted) muscles. Can help with recovery, and will give you a sick pump if that matters to you.

Anyone gotten decent results from a drastic cut?
What can I expect from eating around 1000 calories a day? I don't mind not progressing and perhaps losing strength but i'd like to keep as much muscle as possible but I just can't into a small deficit cut. I need to go all in.
Anyone with decent muscle mass ever done a drastic cut? What were your results?
I am 100kg I'd like to go down to 90kg.

I can't say, because I've never been able to do a drastic cut for longer than a few days without failing.
If you do 2000 calories a day, do your normal lifting routine, AND do some cardio ontop of it. You will get really fucking lean, nowhere near as fast, but you'll eventually get lean, and you'll hold onto all of your strength and all the weight you do lose, will be fat.
>>
>>36566487
You can do drastic cut for short periods of time, try doing a 3 day at least drastic cut, a refeed day and then a week on a less agressive cut, so you can lose fat faster without needing an insane willpower and losing the least muscle mass posible.

Eat tons of fried chicken and watermelon, act like a fucking retard and yell a lot in public, also smell like wet dogs for 3 sets of 12 reps.

>Haven't worked out for 3 weeks cuz illness followed by midterms followed by babies coming to the world close to my family
>hit the gym after a really shitty morning filled with random anxiety (fuck if I know why) and bad coffee stomach
now that I think about it, anxiety was prolly just coffeine overdose, lmao anyways
>get to gym and start warming up real careful, perfect form on every rep and decent weight ratio
>say fuck it all
>beastmode
>hit a new PR in bench
What the fuck, do muscle athropy NEVER kick in? I didn't even do a fucking pushup or eat nearly enough protein during my absence from the gym.
Did I just benefit from a solid break from the gym? Rest periods legit?

Perhaps you needed a deload/dekon
>>
>>36566354
You probly just a DYEL'er, thats why. Never had any muscle to lose in the beginning.
Or you could have had a real good energy to use that one day, try it again the same PR weight, if you can't do it then it was just your energy sweetspot (perfect carb intake/blood sugars at the moment).

You were out for 3 weeks, not 3 years

Not with that attitude brother.
Go to indie events, train hard, get flexible.
Do it, brother.

Benoit was 5'8, Daniel Bryan is 5'9, AJ Styles is 5'8.
Those 3 have been called, at one point or another, the greatest of all time.
Keep training, keep learning, stay fit, I believe in you brother.

Hey /fit/, I'm going in tomorrow to get an inguinal hernia on my left side repaired with a mesh.
Anyone deal with this before? What's the recovery period like? How long until you really feel comfortable to lift at 100% again?

Guy I use to lift with and work with had one. Doctor told him not to lift for at least 4-6 weeks. He wasn't even allowed to go back to work (physical) for 6 weeks, was on paid leave. The work he did wasn't as intense as lifting, so yeah, IIRC he was out for several months, as he didn't want to fuck it up again.
He is back now, gains all back as well. Think of the long term, don't start lifting again so fast and fuck yourself up again and again, just isn't worth it. You can always start lifting again, muscle memory etc.
>>
>>36566106
Get ready to stop training for a month. Seriously dont go back until youre absolutely sure that its healed. Always use a belt on squats and diddlies from now on, and the mesh will shrink up to the size and flexibility of a credit card after the first year. Meaning itll bother you whenever you strain your lower abs, just dont freak out when it does.

Hey OP
just had the same surgery done last weds.
Ask me anything
Im walking about now but slow
