Are you so insecure that you need people to know that you lift to feel validated? Why don't you take comfort in your health, or the fact that your diet is probably better than most people's. If you still want attention just wear nicer clothing.

this is me before 6 months. I don't believe I have made any serious gains since then - weight remains the same and all my performance is the same. Idk what body fat this is. Can you give me body fat percentage on your judgement on this picture? I'd like to consider if I should continue.

Around 28% but it's hard to say because, well, you appear to be sucking it in a little.
Keep going, anon.

if you should continue? Motherfucker, keep going. Fix your diet and your sleep schedule and return in 2 years. You son of a bitch. Of course you should continue. Besides, I'm seeing a lot of progress. I'm 6 months in as well and I thought I could not see a lot of progress.
You are big. You just need to cut and you will see what I'm talking bout. No need to hurry with that though. Just keep getting bigger.

So is using creatine generally considered as cheating or not? I remember when one of my friends bought creatine a few years ago (when I didnt lift), we all thought he would become a monster, because of societys general outlook on supplements like this.

I started taking creatine ~15 minutes before my workout, 4x a week
Pros: lifts jumped to 15-20 lbs instantly, its honestly like popeyes spinach
Cons: front edges of hairline started receding by month 2, immediately stopped taking creatine

It's found in red meats, so in short no. But if you take a lot you'll hurt your kidneys.

>sup /fit/, anybody here have a neuroscience or biochemistry degree, or study it?
If you do, doesn't this board piss you off sometimes? I mean, I love /fit/, years and years ago when I first started working out I came here I wouldn't have gone as far without it. I've had a long hiatus from working out and in the meantime started studying neuroscience and got my degree. Now that I'm back in the gym and back on /fit/, the board is different. There's a handful of people who know what they're doing, while there's a gullible chunk who rely on broscience and do nothing but circlejerk and regurgitate their absolute bullshit.
I see posts about genetics, metabolism, testosterone levels, effects of various supplements, dangerous habits and rituals that just make me fear for kids who come here looking for advice, kids who know nothing, and believe that shit. Whenever I try to post anything informative, post studies, references, I get a wave of memes and bullshit. It's almost impossible to actually help nowadays... So different from the past /fit/, and it's fucking scary to think that kids take these dangerous things seriously
So, my question is, if you ARE involved in the field of neuroscience and/or biochemistry, how the fuck do you not go insanely mad from the shit you see idiots post on this board?

Was gonna eat my daily 6 eggs when the last one was full of blood worst of all I cracked it on the pan.Checked the label and it was caged never thought it matters does it?

Not full of blood

I tried some of those virgin pee eggs in China a few years back and they're actually pretty good. You expect them to taste bad, but they're surprisingly addictive. The texture is the same as a normal boiled egg, but they have this amazing after taste. There might also be some nutritional benefits to virgin pee eggs, but I'm not sure.

Brandy and sleeping pills. There's nothing worthwhile you can do on a plan so catching some extra zzzs is your best bet.
This is why the most expensive and exclusive flight options have beds. Millionares know there's nothing worthwhile that can be done. So brandy and sleeping pills.
Meanwhile, if you want to sail well, rum and coffee is the combination.

Anyone got experience with Ani/Piracetam?

to gain the most out of it?
Should I also slowly go colder so I have to adapt or shock therapy?
btw no matter how much actually free test you get from that, I still recommend taking a cold shower after your regular one, you feel very energetic

LoL
>2015
>Taking cold showers
>Losing your gains
A recent study showed this.
The key findings were that cold water immersion (1) substantially attenuated long-term gains in muscle mass and strength, and (2) delayed and/or suppressed the activity of satellite cells and kinases in the mTOR pathway during recovery from strength exercise. We propose that regular deficits in acute hypertrophy signalling in muscle after cold water immersion accumulated over time, which in turn resulted in smaller improvements in strength and hypertrophy.
Source and full article here:http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1113/JP270570/abstract
Tldr: stop fucking taking cold showers if you want to make gains
>>
>>34887617
Majority of studies have been inconclusive or negative, reports are anecdotal and the only scientifically confirmed results of cold water immersion after exercise are hospitalizations.
This is an urban legend that can literally land you in a fucking hospital.

You will actually start making gains the moment you start plateuing. Now you are just testing your strenght to see what you are capable of

Help /fit/. She won't let him out of the house unless he promises not to lift anymore than 50 pounds for the next year. What do?
Also, what is /fit/'s opinion on underage gymbros? Earlier the better right?

Underage doesn't bother me, as long as they have proper form and aren't little whiney shits.
I dunno man. Might wanna consider looking at the contract. Also, consider going with him, and talking to the owner. Consider asking (politely) for your money back, and maybe threaten legal action if he refuses? He's refusing to give services that have been paid for; that's an issue.
Also, whatever you do, just remember that your bro is a customer, who's paying money. The gym owner took that money in exchange for services. If he isn't providing those services, then the law is on your side.
May not wanna take it from 0-100 straight away, though.

>>34887641
Nah, he can do 110 pounds for 8 reps with no discomfort.
Also that is the only gym within 100 miles, we live in a shit country. Only one squatting rack.
He was even encouraged to use the machines,"for safety purposes." I'm so proud of him, he refuses to do anything that doesn't use free weights.
