How did 19th century bodybuilders/strongmen get so fucking jacked? Most people would accuse these guys of being on gear if they were alive today
Lol'd at Dorian Yates
Oral testosterone supplementation.
Fresh from the testes, if you know what I mean.
Higher testosterone levels, mainly. I've read somewhere that they had literally double what we have now.

I'm pretty sure you're doomed the life of a twig rather a /fit/izen by doing a bypass.
Get fit faggot
I do actually attract women you know. The occasional 18 years old. Cute, but not out of this world.
I'm 120lbs at 5'11, and look like a child. I'm 21 this month, and that's the biggest problem.
I've been at the gym for 6 months and made no progress so far. I try to eat, but have very little appetite. Hence, no gains.
I want to attract bombshells /fit/, I'm fucking tired of the mere 'cute' women. I want the estrogenic babes.
drink whole milk with everything. 150 kcal per cup. I have at least six a day, and it helps a lot with hitting my calorie goal. dat brotein too. good luck skelly.
>>35194305
drink semen for maximum gainz faggot
>>35194319
Alright. Being French, I have little idea what you mean by cup. Don't you have US and UK cups?
How much cl is that?

Anyone ever make cold oatmeal here? Sometimes it's too hot for a nice warm bowl
>>35192810
It's ducking awesome. I usually do it overnight, but it doesn't take more than 1-1.5 hrs to be ready. PB powder/Protein and frozen fruit, stevie if you want it to taste sweet. I make it so it's thick as fuck, and after the fruit is in there for a bit it basically turns into ice cream consistency.
>>35193528

>pour in milk till all oats are just barely submerged

It's time for one of these again.
>The Old Jesus Freak
Old man that is local priest at a shitty non-denominational tryhard, wannabe-cool church. After he finishes a set of anything he jumps around yelling, "Whoo, whoo, whoo hoo!" in an annoying ass high pitched voice. Always looks around to see if anyone is watching. Poor as fuck form on literally every single thing he does. Thinks the Holy Ghost is in him.
>The Over-Groomed Hipster Fag
Comes in wearing the tiniest muscle shirt. Has a descent build but is covered in like $100k worth of ugly, shitty, trendy, cliché tattoos. He thinks he's there impressing the females but he's really only impressive to the homosexuals. He is 5’4” tall. Women literally laugh at him when he is not looking.
>The Welder
Construction worker that just got off and came straight to gym. He's wearing Carhardt jeans and steel toe work boots. Does what he thinks are shrugs on smith machine with 3 plates but is really more like a shitty leg workout. He leaves the gym after 20 minutes. Probably brags to the guys he works with about how hard he works out.
>Grape Ape
Black guy who is short and square. Moves more weight than anybody in the gym. Uses good form and posture. Never has a spotter. Wears a perpetual smile and never says a word to anyone. Always re-racks his plates and wipes down equipment with disinfectant when he is done.
>Bluce Ree
160 pound Asian guy who is around 5'4". Works out every single day. Has good form and appears to train smart. His eyebrows are plucked perfectly and he has groomed himself impeccably for the day’s workout. Has had no noticeable progress for at least 3 years now. Slyly checks himself out in every mirror he passes. Probably knows karate.
>The Hidden Beauty
9/10 rock hard female that comes in on the regular. Wears nice workout clothes with no makeup. She is there to train. Grabs a couple of dumb bells and heads to the abs room to work out where no one will stare at her. The nerve of that bitch.
>The Pseudo-Fighter
Middle aged man with beer gut that comes in. He bought some bargain MMA gloves from Academy. Stands in front of the heavy bag and punches it poorly.....repeatedly. After 5 mins he is pouring sweat and breathing heavily. The staff has 911 on speed dial just in case he heart attacks all over the place. He leaves with his cool MMA gloves & a painful look upon his face.
>The Jailbait Goddess
Beautiful jailbait female comes in with her mom and dad like 4 days a week. They all fucking KILL IT every time they show up. Girl is 11/10. Try not to stare too much. Mom is cute and moves more weight than me. Dad is beast mode – moves massive weights without effort for 16 or 20 reps. He looks like he could kill me with telekinesis. Avert my eyes every time dad looks my direction. He can read my thoughts. I know he has psychic mind powers. Never make eye contact with the dad. Never ever. Ever.
>The Tries-To-Act-Strait Gay Guy
Older gay gentleman that comes in religiously 5 days per week. He has been at it for years and has a decent build for someone his age. He is super cool to everyone and never has been a flaming faggot. Literally everyone knows he is gay and literally nobody cares. He thinks nobody knows he’s gay.
>The Rager
a 5'8 turbo manlet who has left humanity behind. Is a labourer, has hundreds of tattoos. never smiles. Always lifts light weight but looks like Rich Piano minus a foot
>The Twins
Jacked roider brothers. Seem nice enough but mostly keep to themselves. Have severe inferiority complex as a result of being 5'6.
>The Third Twin
Roider that has the aesthetics of a greek good. good looking dude that put up a ton of weight and has a qt wife that comes in with him sometimes. Hangs out with the twins a lot but is clearly on another level than them.
>Pajeets
4 indian dudes that come in every saturday morning. Always smell like shit due to their lack of bathing. One or two of them hopped on a cycle right off the bat because they got cannonballl delts after a few months.
>The Gainspa
60 year old guy who right off the bat looks like shit. Has a 315 bench, 495 diddly, and 365 squat. Is nice enough and gives advice when asked. Used to be a PL
>The Gainspa's Padwan
guy in his late twenties that has a bit of a gut. Squats 4plate, OHP 2 plate and benches around 3. Always has gainspa spotting. Might be related.
>Russian qts
2 Russian or eastern European chicks that I woodberry.
>The Scaredy cats
2 stinky, ugly fat dudes that come in and only do back. always.
Row 135 like it is heavy weight and through it on the ground. Deadlift 275 with the worst form that I have ever seen. Waiting for a herniated disk.
>Gym nemesis
guy who looks more aesthetic than me despite being able to squat and OHP less. granted he can bench and diddly more.
>Gym bro
is a faggot. fuck that guy
So what the fuck is the motivation?
Tell me what you use as motivation to stay fit.
Tell me what you used as motivation to lose weight.
I need motivation.
Every man should aim to get stronger. What other motivation do you need?
>>35190987
I enjoy 'mirin my ass after showering while I'm towelling off in front of the mirror.
>>35190987
I lift because it lets me turn my anxiety into power
Sometimes I get so anxious it's like pre workout

How long are you gonna keep shilling your product in these threads?
Why do you think it's acceptable to shill your product when you are skinnyfat?
PPL is a good place to start.
American here,
Serious question.
One of my good buddies is originally Canadian, but we were in the US Army together. Anyway, he's way nice. Why are all Canadians so nice?

Is SS really just a meme /fit/?
>>35186357
Nope.
"SS is a meme" is the actual meme.
Next question.
Yes, one of the biggest meme in 4chan history. You don't know how many people have had their lifting careers at best delayed by 5-6 months and at worst completely destroyed due to the lack of results because of this troll.
>>35186357
This guy is fat. He Iooks Iike any ordinary footbaII coach that never got to be the pIayer and Iives out his dreams through the team he yeIIs at.
