>tfw you start cutting and realize most of your "gains" are just fat
Now I truly understand this whole fake natty witchunt. Anyone who denies it are just living inside their little bubble.
This chart is 100% the truth for bodybuilding, there is no way you can escape this truth. This is for the genetic ELITE,most people will never attain your number in this chart even with a lifetime of training.

yup yup

seems a bit on the low side, but also about right.
i assume this is assuming practically no fat and maybe some dehydration.
so yeah. I don't disagree

This chart is for 5% bf but also for the genetic elite. I was brainwashed at one point and thought these numbers seemed low, just like 90% of the gomadders on this board

I'm going to be thirty in a little over three years (I turn 27 tomorrow). I have nothing to show for it. My one friend, the barbell, used to help me forget about everything for just a little while, but he's not able to do that anymore. I don't know anymore. It feels like I've hit rockbottom.

OP, I am literally you. I turn 27 in June, same boat exactly. Don't worry man, we're gonna make it. What are you studying? I was working towards a bachelors in criminal justice and then interned and got completely turned off, now I've started all over. Going back this semester to study web development. Why are you bombing finals, man? The barbell can't make you feel better if everything else in life is bad. I know this. I'm worried about the future too man, every year is getting shorter. feel like I've never started living and never will, but we gotta keep trying. Please man, for me, for us, keep trying. We have to make it.

I used to smoke about 1.5 packs of cigs a day
About two months ago I decided to quit smoking and I weened myself down to one or two cigs a day last week.
I decided to say fuck it and try dropping it completely this week.
It's been four days since I had a cig, how long do the cravings stay this bad?
>inb4 just have better willpower
Never said I'm thinking about caving in, but I'm literally shaking from what I assume is nicotine withdrawal.
Also if anyone can post some literature or tips on how to do this better it would be much appreciated.

I've been smoking a pack a day for 3.5 years. My mom got diagnosed with COPD a few months ago and now I just feel horrible because I need to quit for my mom's health but I can't be assed to, am I in the right for trying to manage my habit or should I have quit already?

Hey /fit/.
I have a simple question, however, as I'm a gym newbie, I'm pretty clueless.
So I've started to go to the gym and lift about four months ago. I've got myself a coach, who gave me my diet and a whole training and all that jazz.
I've started at about 190cm and 55kg, and currently, I'm weighing at about 65kg, so I'd say the bulk is getting pretty good.
However, even though I follow my diet closely and whatnot, I can't get off of my habit of drinking. I do about 5 beers and two shots daily. And besides the obvious problem of going drunk to the gym, which I've done only a couple of times, could this affect my gains and growth somehow?
Thanks alot, /fit/.

It will absolutely CRIPPLE your possible gains.
The average can of beer has 154kcal x 5 = 770kcal DAILY, not even taking the shots into account.
Not to mention that alcohol has a negative impact on overall strength.

You were a skelly, you are still a skelly, but 10kgs is a lot for a skelly, so good job gaining all that.
Stop drinking. It is horrible for your gains and growth. Beer in particular is full of empty calories and promotes estrogen production reducing your test and fucking up your gains. Stop drinking right fucking now. get drunk AT MOST 2 times a month, and do it by mixing cheap vodka with low sugar mixers.

Aight guys, thanks. It will take some time to break the bad habit, but I'll try to get it down as soon as possible

You can ignore actions and appearance by turning away. You can't ignore smell.

Your anecdote v. other people's anecdotes. Every indian i've been around in the gym smells like foul curry.

Move to incine you sit at an incline not plateuing flat like regular bench
FEMANONS
Lifting for strength will only impress men and get you nowhere near the beautiful, fit female body that you want
Lifting for aesthetic is the best route for you, start doing Strong Curves for that dere X-shape

no wtf 8-12 with low weight for the 8 weeks, then high weight and low rep for the last 4 weeks

On repeat?
I could sympathize with lower weight for ensuring stability and such, but there's little other reason to forego HWLR for 8 fucking weeks.

The fuck are meat pancakes?
Like, do you just put bacon or ham or some other breakfasty meats in there?
And then do you still use syrup?

Can we have a bowel movement thread? What's the perfect shit? How should i eat to optain it?
I don't know if i have IBS - light or something but i swar to god like 8/10 times my shit will never be solid. Like i'll shit out one moist/wet sausage and then 2-3 small ones and they really dirty up my a - hole on their way out. It's fucking hell to clean up, like sometimes i'll have to wipe my ass forever to get it perfect. And even worse sometimes the shit will break off in the middle which makes it even worse to too wipe.
Fucking hell how do i avoid this? I feel like i eat enough fiber, but maybe not. Also sometimes it seems like the longer i go inbetween each shit the more solid it will be. I basically just wanna shit dry , solid sausages that are in one fucking piece and dont take forever to wipe.

Crackers
Bananas
Look up "foods for firm stool"
Bananas work the best, but I hate them, so when I did gomad I also did tube of Ritz per day.
Make sure the crackers have no fiber

there could be various causes for those issues.
what's your idea of eating enough fiber by the way?
also, you might be intolerant to some foods (maybe lactose or fructose intolerance).
other than that your gut flora might have turned to shit. most people have issues with their gut microbiome. oftentimes that problem manifests in your skin as well, e.g. with neurodermitis.
this can be caused by taking antibiotics that eradicate good gut bacteria or unhealthy eating (like lots of refined sugar/starch that feed the wrong kind of bacteria and can cause candida). pic related helps "repopulating" the gut with healthy bacteria. i can recommend drinking kombucha, it's fucking delicious. apart from that, as far as i know, the best probiotic supplement on the market is VSL #3 , which people take after repeated exposure to antibiotics among other things.

How do I achieve that I shit every morning? When should I stop eating the day before to achieve this?
I want to weigh myself every morning before breakfast, but it's useless if my bowels aren't empty
