College fag here. Gotta go home for a month for winter break so no weight room, just me and a pull up bar.
i weigh 175 and can
squat 215x5
bench 185x5
pull ups +10lbx10
I want to cut in weight about 8lb, and i need a routine i can build muscle or at least not lose strength. im still on the noob gains upswing but what do you guys do for bodyweight when you have to?
i was thinking push ups, pull ups, and wall sits to failure every other day.

Do calisthenics everyday or at least try to. Also perform a lot of sets, at least 15. Do as many reps as you can with each set. Resting periods also need to be really short, like around 10 to 15 seconds. Apply these techniques to each exercise you do. It gets pretty intense and you will make gains.
>>35208197
hmm ive never heard of doing that many sets. why does that work better? i really appreciate it man!
endless dancing

DESU finding a decent bodyfat percentage calculator has been difficult. I've read the sticky but found nothing.
My current progress from early april is 278 lbs->225 lbs
Focused on cutting diet and cardio and for the last 2 1/2 months I've been lifitng.
gross
Should have just stayed fat you disgusting piece of shit
Fucking fat fuck.
Still pretty high. Lift harder
Has /fit/ ever lifted with a cold?
Or should i stay home till i get better?
>>35207818
It's a cold, you're not dieing asshole
>>35207832
In midevil times it was a death sentence.
>>35207818
Go lift bitch
do you think science will find a cure for baldness in our lifetime?
Yeah its called wearing a wig
>>35207767
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHA GOOD ONE OMG FANTASTIC POST.
SOMEONE SCREENSHOT IT AND PUT IT ON REDDIT
i remember reading somewhere that some research group in japan had found a way to make hair regrow through stem cells treatment and somenthing about it being avaiable around 2018, but it might just have been a huge ruse
I'm 22, experiencing troubles with my erections, got blood tests done and found out that everything is in normal ranges (test 465 ng/dl, only defficient in Vitamin D - now taking supplement). Came to the conclusion that ED may be related to poor sleep patterns as i always go to sleep after midnight and get up at ~9-10 am.
Is ZMA an option? Thanks.
P.S. What about other effective libido-and-erection-boosting supplements are there? I've read that L-Arginine might not help. What about Maca?
have you tried no porn, no fap, no pillow, no shampoo, cold showers?
It does wonders for test.
>>35207501
ZMA is effective if you have a deficiency of something in it. Magnesium def is relatively common, but don't expect miracles.
Are you exercising regularly? Is your diet good? Sleep patterns can help as you say. I wouldn't rely on supplements to get your dick hard though.
>>35207528
I've tried no fap/no porn for a month - only flatline as a result, no increase in libido, nor erections. No pillow, no shampoo - might give it a try. Cold showers - always.
>>35207529
Yes, i lift. Diet is quite rich and broad. Maybe only lacking in vegetables and i don't eat a lot of fruits (now trying to eat a lot of pomegranates, apples).
Just bought myself picrelated for christmas
are you getting anything /fit/ this year?
Asked for a rogue flat bench and a rogue ohio lifting belt.
We shall see how good santa is to me this year.
If my bonus is what I believe it should be, most likely buying myself a lat machine or a new squat rack with pullup bar or both if really good.
Starting HRT the 19th, will get breast implants in 6 month if all goes well. Should finish up my electrolysis by the new years and plan to celebrate by buying all new undies.
What is the best app for keeping track of progress on lifts?
Don't want to carry paper about like an autist
literally anything
fucking notepad for your phone
just use google docs or something
don't overthink it
I use microsoft excel
>>35207384
FitNotes. Can turn your data into all sorts of cool graphs and export into excell files if you care about that.
My only gripe is that you can't enter sets with an unspecified amount of reps.
Looking for a basic bench to complement my power rack/cage to do barbell routine in.
What should I look for? I don't really need extra stuff, but I want your feedback.
Check the height. They should be around 18" tall. Cheaper ones are often above that.
Make sure it can handle the weight. If you weight 200 and bench 300, it needs to handle 500.
If your floor isn't perfectly level, get a bolt together one, you can adjust it to level using the play in the bolts.
Bout all I can think of right now.
>>35207284
Thanks. Good advice, I hadn't thought of any of it.
>>35207237
Rogue fitness 175USD.
Or learn to weld, 50USD.
Is there any other race more aesthetic than jacked & tall asians? They look alien & stand out. Met a jacked tall asian in gym and my perception changed
>>35207166
I don't know what it is but something is off
>>35207200
he's exceptionally wide
>>35207200
pecs are disproportionately large
Realistically, how much weight difference would that translate into?
No height bullshit included ofc.
Thats Like 110 to 185
>>35207076
this, plus a slight reduction in bodyfat
so like 80 lbs of muscle
around 100lbs, maybe abit less? looks like he goes from about 130-220ish

So tonight I power snatched my pr snatch (unintentionally) but I kept missing bodyweight snatch. I'm so close. I just can't catch in a deep position I power it every time.
Mobility+overhead squats to get happier in the bottom position maybe?
>>35206754
IMO hang/block work is probably more important to get you to be comfortable catching lower
