why are push ups so much easier to do than pull ups?

Because half your weight doesn't move up.
>>
You're not moving as much of your weight up. lol
Dips are better compared to pullups. Still most people will have easier time with dips than pullups, partly cause better leverages, most people are stronger on pushes than pulls and less ROM.
I can do about 60-70 pushups withuot stopping. Can only do around 20 pullups in a row...

Push ups would be would be exactly as easy to do as pull ups if your feet weren't touching the floor.

When they say 1lb protein / bodyweight does that mean that if I weight 200 pounds I have to eat 200 lb of chicken? What the fuck that is expensive as shit. 1lb chicken breast is gonna cost like 5 dollars, so if I weight 200 lb it's gonna cost me 1000 a day just on protein?? Fuck that shit

Now think how hard it is for vegans to get that 1lb protein / 1lb bodyweight.
That's like a tree a day.
It's why that green alien dude has made no gains, he's constantly on the toilet shitting out all that fibre.
>>
You kidding? It's one gram of brotein per lb.
If you weight 200lb, you gotta eat 200g of brotein.
Chicken breasts got 30g of brotein per 100g.

I might be overthinking this, but what do when you have reached your desired weight/strength ?
I like lifting but I have no intention of becoming a powerlifter/bodybuilder.
Don't be dipshits pls.

Several options:
>set new goals. They don't need to be about size/strength, but maybe you wanna learn a sport or be able to do a one-armed pullup, or whatever
>keep lifting, but a bit less, to maintain. Use the time to read books, improve your social life, train for a better job, go travel...
>quit lifting. Slowly lose the body you worked hard to get. Re-start after a year. Or don't and become a normie.
>>
>>35599547
You'll make new goals. They might be to join a sports team, to compete in something, to move bigger weights; there's a lot of things that happen.
You might not have the intention to be a body builder or powerlifter, but might do something with it just for kicks. I went out and did rowing for my university just for kicks.

what are your goals right now, opie?

I'm gonna cut off a mole that looks like pic related with nail clippers. It's about 3mm wide and raised.
Don't have the money to get it done professionally.
How do I make it safe/painless. Was thinking of numbing with ice then just doing it super quick.

Start with incline variation or even with wall pushups, you ignorant fuck.

Coming here asking how to do a single pushup is like going onto an essay writing enthusiast's forum and asking how to spell your own name.

/fit/ says: Eat unprocessed food.
But where the fuck should I get it?
>Store-bought "100%" orange juice is yellow.
>If you mix it with sparkling water, nothing really happens.
>Freshly squeezed orange juice is orange.
>If you mix it with sparkling water, it foams like a motherfucker.
>Store-bought "fresh full-fat milk" has 3.5% fat.
>It goes bad after 2 weeks and then tastes absolutely disgusting.
>Real milk has anywhere between 3.8% and over 4% fat and a wad of cream on top.
>It goes bad after 3 days (1 if the weather is bad) and then tastes sour, but still refreshing.
>store-bought bread starts to get moldy after as little as a week even if you store it in a dry place
>self-baked bread just dries out and is still edible with no ill effects weeks later
>store-bought butter is white
>originally, butter is slightly orange
What the fuck are they doing to our food?
And why doesn't anyone care that the stuff we get fed today has nothing to do with what our grandparents ate anymore?

Hey guys, former ham-planet here, i've dropped about 100lbs over the last year and have been looking into building some muscle to fill out my loose skin. I'm incredibly weak and dont know anything about what to do in the gym so i hired a personal trainer to teach me the ropes, he asked me what my goals are and put me on some different machines to get a feel of the weights after which we discussed my diet.
He told me in order to reach my goals of bigger arms and traps i need to be eating as much of that body part as possible, seeing as chicken is the cheapest i've gone with buying entire roast chickens to eat the arms and traps, this leaves for a lot of wastage as you probably know, but i simply cant afford it anymore, they dont sell traps at the supermarkets alone so im forced to buy entire chickens to eat basically 1/10 of what im paying for...
He makes me tell him what i ate in the last few days every session i have with him so i've resorted to lying about the amount of arms/traps i've been eating and have just gone back to my regular diet of sandwiches and noodles.
I've read the sticky, it helped a lot in other areas but not at all with this problem.

You should supplement that with nuts. Also do not eat starchy food. Do not buy whole Roast chicken and just buy regular raw chicken and grill it (There should be machines in the market that can remove the fat and grease while it cooks the chicken).
>>
>>35599084
Thanks for the advice, i don't know of these machines that remove the fat and grease while cooking the chickens that you speak of

>I eat specific body parts as much as possible and I've totally read the sticky
2/10.
Now ACTUALLY read the sticky. Click the god damn dinosaur running around at the top of the front page and READ.

Yo /fit/
It's been 1 year i started doing some sports and i think i might be suffering from muscular asymmetry. I often get tendinitis in my right arm and it's indeed visually marked. I observe the effects while swimming, deviation to the right, and during workout.
Do you have any advice on What can i do ? Which specialist should i go see ? Could this be a symptom of a nerve blocade?
PS: I already had it before i started sports

Alright fit I started 5x5 again because I only did it for 2 months before and even all my lifts went up but my squat was my weakest lift.
https://youtu.be/jk9qL8CdRAk
I've watched countless of videos and shit but I still don't think my squat is that good.

You're hyperextending your back. Don't. You should also unrack with both feet under the weight. And lose the gloves you pussy.

>>35597919
My hands sweat a shitload I usually only use them for rows. Those are new gloves so I'm breaking them in.
My main concern is that my knees are going past my toes. Is that okay? My wife is doing the same. I'll post her form video in a few

"You are what you eat" -This means that the substances you consume are the things that become your body. Your skin was once something you ate.
Correct fat in correct portions is quite important to testosterone levels.

Tried to have a test-boosting thread yesterday heres what we got:
>Tumblr/Reddit saying test will give you cancer and that actually you want low test for gains (lol)
>A guy saying excessive cardio is actually good for gains
>A guy saying that test doesn't matter at all for gains and that low test people make the same gains a high test (apex kek)
>Fraudsters saying that there's no point unless you rid (nothing against fraud, but this was a natty or mostly natty thread)
So... basically you can't have this discussion on /fit/, but im on the same quest as you.
Things that objectively and scientifically work:
>Vitamin D
>Zinc
>nofap for up to but not longer than a week (fappers need not respond, it doesn't concern you to argue against this study. Just switch tabs to /gif/ if you feel the need to reply)
