So should I make a new thread or wait for this one to get deleted by the mod?

Wait
Hello guys.
I have been happy for a long time with some old chucks for lifting. In my ideal life I'd lift barefoot because I like being as natural as possible on this stuff. I never use belts, neither gloves, my only accessory is chalk and well, I confess I use straps for DLs. My wrists are not that strong and they reached their max. The only way to keep going forward with the rest was using straps.
So I have this philosophy, but also I love olympics. I am a regular gym guy but I have some olympic movements in my routine and when I have to do some research about how to do stuff I always rely on athletes to see form, etc.
So, lately my chucks are nearly dead, one day the sole will fall apart and it will be ridiculous in the gym. So I am thinking about changing for another shoe. The question is, go minimal or go lifting shoe?
Any thoughts? Thanks in advance.
Those are some cool looking shoes friend. Where can I cop a pair friend? Netherlands btw
>>35551653
You're a faggot.
Olympic shoes are a worthwhile investment.
It isn't even that they have the heel, it's that they brace the foot in for a solid base of lifting. Force is transferred from the ground up. Why not have the first point of contact nice and tight?

Are there any legit ways to make one's cock longer?
The most genuine thing I came across was this exercise thing where you pull the dick in a variety of different directions for a total of about 35 minutes. But then I read about how doing stuff like that could build up scar tissue thus lessening the sensitivity of the dick,
So fuck.
Are there any real methods?
(HGH isn't an option)

Which one is more aesthetic /fit/?
>>35551037
Channing Tatum for grills
Zyzz Brah for dudes
>>35551051
This is what average girl who can't obtain Zyzz's body like bf want to belive
>>35551037
This isn't even a question. Tatum has an aesthetic face but his body is shit tier. Zyzz was the most aesthetic man alive.

Is milk bad or good for you?
Bad
>>35549020

>he started off at 6' 160 lbs total skelly

>been lifting with me for almost 9 months now
>doesn't track his diet super closely, but has made pretty solid progress
>can now squat 195x5, bench 130x5, deadlift 270x5, and OHP 100x5
>>35548989
he's dedicated to be as strong as can be. he sucks my dick for extra protein.
He went to gym with me for nearly 3 years. But he got "injured" really nothing special. Now he switched gym. Even though he got so often lazy and so. Now with him not in the gym i don't have to deal with his jealous bullshit. Because i had gotten stronger, better, he got lazy.
How many times do you actually go to the gym a week in hours?
Maybe you go five times a week but only for forty minutes. Maybe you go twice a week but hit it for three hours.
Be honest anons, how much work are you putting in? Do you ignore your routine and do extra shit for fun?
Why the fuck would you play sand volleyball in socks
>>35548361
2hrs * 3 days = 6 hours per week
>>35548361
2.5hrs * 4 days = 10 hours a week
>>35548370
4 extra hours of gain
Discuss husbando mode. Post pics of husbando ideals, routines, diet, aesthetics etc. Generally agreed on before was 13%-17% bodyfat, body built from barbell strength routine with accessories (Texas Method, MadCow, 5/3/1 BBB), hair is usually just slightly grown out although never long rather than shaved or buzzed evenly all over but this isn't a must have, facial hair is a must even if just some stubble, bodyhair should be grown out or trimmed but not shaved completely or waxed. Not necessarily gay but gaybros welcome. Twink, otter, bodybuilder modes are not husbando mode. No homo. Starting with Justin edition.
Should clarify gaybros unless they act like little bitches and cry over the meaning of husbando mode within a specific /fit/ context while calling the straight people itt breeders & acting like little faggot drama queens. Manly gaybros plenty welcome. /pol/tards will be spammed with pics of black, middle eastern husbandbros and the one Jew husbando mode dude can find a pic of.

I grew up chubby and the idea of reliving it all but changing it from chubby to fit is temping as fuck. My life improved dramatically after I got fit, uni marks got better, looked better, better with girls, made more money. I wouldn't mind redoing it all and doing it right this time
Is three days a week really enough?
Why do my legs hurt, but my arms feel fine?
>>35547891
>Why do my legs hurt, but my arms feel fine?
cause you are entering T-Rex mode as predicted by Dr. Mark Rippetoestein in his Theory of General Starting Strength
You dumb fuck, its not about volume, its about progressive overload. Yes 3 times a week is enough.
Because

Why do vegans age like absolute shit?
>>35547377
Because every time a vegan tells someone that eating meat is wrong and evil, they lose 30 seconds of their age.
The hodge twins are going to be next. Those faggots spitting their shit about how much better they feel after a month of not eating meat when they are old as fuck and have eaten meat every day for the last 45 years.
>>35547377
His face 7 years ago. Veganism, not even once.
This feel is too much fit...
dem hoes ain't loyal man... sad but true
Not sure why this is shocking to anyone.
News flash to romantics out there: women in general love being loved; men in general love loving.
>expecting a woman to have loyalty and honor

Which one of you fucks was this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0kGGibY0cxw and how much did she cost?
>>35545120
I dunno, but his form is shit, he's literally throwing the gods-be-damned bar to get it up, he's not properly curling the fucking thing. He's only really capable of about maybe 2/3rds of that weight, done with proper form.
>''Christina how impressed were you by my biceps curls?''
>uses his WHOLE FUCKING BODY to manage 5 absolute shit form curls
fuck off Greg, go home. Your face is a 7/10 and you're a manlet. Plus your bitch is a 8/10 at best
