Hey /fit/,
I run a decent bit every morning, but I never did any genuine strength training. I've been wanting too the problem is that I have a very long history of insomnia, sometimes I'm able to sleep well for a week, but that's a rare occasion.
Would my irregular sleep pattern be considered when planning a routine?
At this point my body is used to being awake for too long, so I don't feel too much physical vatigue, but I doubt that means I have as much strength/stamina.
Could you give me some advice on this topic?
Sorry for the long post.
>>35151136
Have you been to a sleep center and/or seen a sleep doctor for your insomnia?
>>35151136
>insomnia
Sounds like a brain tumor.
Exercise might help you sleep desu
So the most /fit/ job is being a firefighter, right?

Did Chestbrah make it?
What lifts did you do today?
>>35151034
Chestbrah is getting too old for this shit.
He looks like a fucking faggot.
Didn't he get arrested for fucking a tranny hooker?
He'll never make it.

how old is he
How come so many pro athletes are able to get both so good at their sport AND get big and muscular? I started wrestling and it seems like you need to choose between either. To get good I train wrestling 4 or 5 times a week, which not only burns a ton of calories but also leaves room for 2 lifting sessions a week. How are they able to get so juicy? Is it genetics? I'm stuck at 172 lbs at 6'1 but would like to hit 200 lbs.
TL;DR: How to get big and good at sport? How do they do it?
Let me blow your mind real quick
It's possible to train for a sport and lift on the same day
>>35150824
Top level athletes (pro or amateur) are able and willing to dedicate a fuckton of time to exercise, diet and recovery.
They also may or may not have genetic and chemical advantages.
>>35150824
hmm.. perhaps because it's their job to train and stay fit
Just letting you guys know that a guy that's 5'10, built like a powerlifter and who's clothes, hands and nails are dirty from the hard work he does day in and day out commands more respect from his peers and females alike than the effeminate, self absorbed pussies you guys try to be, shaving your legs and waxing your eyebrows and being so insecure about your bodies
>>35150773
>implying caring about your appearance and doing physical work for a living are mutually exclusive
>>35150773
>commands more respect from his peers and females
do you have proof in the form of a peer-reviewed study?
Ok
Serious question, /fit
Does that No-no hair removal thing actually work or
it is just another As Seen TV cancer causing scam?

Been wondering about that and it's effectiveness with pubes

Dear /fit/,
This is a post to thank you. Thanks to you, I've been working out and I'm starting to see results. I'm stronger and my muscles have grown. You've corrected my routine and I think the new works much better.
You're a force for good and anyone who wants to improve will benefit from your existence.
I wanted to say this because it makes a huge contribution to my life and my mood. I no longer fear aging because I'm actually improving as I get older now.
Bless you, /fit/izens.
ITT: thanksgivings, showing progress, asking questions, helping each other, feeling brolove, no homo.
You're welcome! Keep up the good work bro!

I wasted 7 months on a circuit routine... Now I do splits and added exercises, and do 5 sets for each exercise. Way more volume than I used to. Used to do 2 rounds of my circuit, with too many exercises (full body, everything from lifts to situps, left me exhausted but not worked out to my limits).
I hope my progress will speed up now. I sure as fuck feel my body the day after my new work out.

Keep up the good work. Merry Christmas,
health related question here.
in the last few months my personality has shifted dramatically. I've gone from an extrovert who loves socializing/partying to an introvert who is completely content with his time alone. My motivation has also been severely tapped. In this time I have also been on exchange to a school in northern Sweden, so my exposure to sunlight has decreased to the point where I now go entire days without seeing the sun.
You guys think this is depression, vitamin D deficiency, home sickness or what? Im honestly not sad, just turning into a massive introvert.
On a fitness note, is upper back movement acceptable on a pendlay row as long as my hips dont move?
>>35150451
Lack of sunlight
Force it or just make like a scandi and drink the sorrows away all day erry day

By actually trying, you failed the test.
Do twice a week routines work? I want to have more time for studying.
Day One:
Bench Press: 3x6-8
Incline BB/DB Press: 2x10-12
Military Press: 3x6-8
DB Skull Crushers or Close Grip Bench Press with 4-5” ROM (Not all the way down to your chest and your index fingers should be where the knurling starts): 3x10-12
Kneeling Cable Crunches or Other Heavy Ab Exercise: 3x10
Day Two:
Pull-Ups or Wide Lat Pull-Downs: 3xAMAP (As Many As Possible – Use Minimum ¾ Your BW for Pull-Downs)
Bent Over Yates Row 3x8
EZ-Bar Curl: 2x10
Squats: 2x10
Deadlifts: 1x10
pic unrelated. I'm a dude.
Training your body at all is better than not, but in terms of optimization you'll get mediocre results. Why not just do 4x 30min sessions a week consisting of your core lifts instead of 2x 1 hour hypertrophy sessions?
>>35150329
>Do twice a week routines work? I
only if your on the juice
>>35150365
What about all the warming up and stretching? Every trip to the gym takes almost an hour longer because of that (2 hours+40min walking to and from).
Is this achievable natty?
why are you posting the guy that bullied you in school?
>>35150210
He is estatting. 4 months no way
>>35150214
Its an indian or persian trip on here that claims he's white bicepbro or something. He's been on here for years and posts a pic saying it's been a few months
Prob gonna be a stupid post but I need at least one person so say this isn't all retarded.
Do ya'll think health wise it's ok for a 5'2" female to restrict her diet to 1000 cals per day? Do you think I'd notice results in a month? Atm I eat 2,000-3,500 cals per day and weigh 135, so I think I'd obs. lose weight at 1,000 cals a day right?
It's temporary, after I finish school in a month and a half I'll have time to hit the gym but atm I have work and school and don't have time.
Tl;dr is 1,000 cals ok? And would I see any results in a month. TYTYTY.
>>35150175
What is your actual diet? What food are you thinking to put into those 1000 cal? Probably something into 1300 & 1600 cal will be better
>>35150217
My diet atm isn't the best, no fast food or sodas but a lot of high fat and carb stuff when I don't extercise.
I'd eat only fruits and veggies for the 1st month as I REALLY want to see a result.
>>35150175
No I don't think that's a good idea. My girlfriend is the same height as you and we calculated it and for her to lose enough weight to be considered perfectly healthy (not over weight not underweight) she'd have to reach a weight of around 135. So based on that I'm willing to guess you have no need to have that restrictive of a diet. But that's not exactly the answer to your question so I'll put it this way. Various health organizations say a female teenage or older shouldn't eat around less than 1300 Calories a day for an absolute minimum
the fuck is up with ronnies elbow

oh fuck

last couple of days my eyelids and lip have been twitching randomly throughout the day
what is fits diagnosis

Stop sucking clit.
>>35149948
*I mean dick
>>35149927
It's twitching: it happens.
Been sleeping poorly? Added or subtracted caffeine from your life? Been stressed? Been exerting muscles harder than normal?
All those and a lot more can cause twitching, and it's almost always harmless, and can last for even a week or so.
