What do. I got nine months.
>>34865538
Do it and don't regret it. You have nine months to get in shape. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity that you have with your father. A chance to bond and for him to see you as a man.

How did you deal with exertion/excersise induced asthma? I've started to run and can only manage ~30 of jogging at a time before i have to stop or suffocate. I've noticed that the more often I go for these jogs, the more often I recover and get another 30 secs in.
I've also noticed that if I pace my breathing I can go for slightly longer and it hurts less after stopping.

I finally did it /fit/, I pulled my back deadlifting. My question to you is whether I should see a doctor or not? It hurts really fucking bad, like the pain is shooting down my back thighs. I can't move at all without feeling like a knife is in my lower back. Is this something I just walk off or could it be more serious like a disk is out of place?
nah man don't see a doctor, you're ok

Hey guys. As its getting into winter my gym is getting a little bit chillier and it's getting harder to keep warm and have a sweat going. I was thinking about wearing a sweatshirt while doing my lifts. I was just wondering if you guys had any opinions/recommendations on this and if it will affect my lifts in any way.
>>34865272
sure if you have autism
>>34865272
Plz no
The most I ever wore was a thin long sleeve shirt when I ran winter outdoor track in high school in the northeast.
Maybe try hardening the fuck up. hth

That pic is wrong, Paulie used to have his index and little finger out.
anyone have any experience, stories, links, or results of themselves or anyone else fitness minded who went on a "starvation" diet (eating very little to no calories)?
ive been curious about this for some time. ive already abandoned the "starvation mode" meme, knowing its highly exaggerated bullshit. But after watching Naked and Afraid on Discovery, ive seen several people who seemed to retain their muslce mass just fine despite extreme caloric deficits.
wouldnt it be safe to say that a bodybuilder could lose 20lbs much faster by going very low cal for a shorter period of time, while still retaining a good amount of muscle mass? maybe for a permabulker who is looking to transform?
exhausting as fuck
cardio becomes impossible
strength drops

You would burn tons of muscle. Only an idiot would do it.

Hey guys, I had "labrum repair" surgery on september 17th. They went in and found out it wasnt torn it was just something that looked like a tear. They cleaned out some heavy bursa and lots of tissue and shit and he said id be good to go in 1 month. It is not November and my shoulder still hurts, worse than before i had surgery forsure. Therapist told me I have bad inpingement I guess and thats why I am hurting. Do you think this is the case? I am desparately trying to get better but it just isnt. Plus I am waiting on another referral to start therapy again, Please help me /fit/
Why the fuck did you have to repair your labia? Faggot
>>34864906
>Do you think this is the case?
Pretty much impossible to say when you've revealed NOTHING about your situation. "It hurts" isn't much to go from.
>try to fix a tear that isnt even a tear
>no physio picked up on this before
>they did surgery anyway
>still recurring problems
Modern medical practices ladies and gents. You have scapula dyskenesis. Work your Serratus Anterior, retract your shoulderblades, work your rhomboids and mid/lower traps.
You want to balance your torso muscles so nothing pulls or impinges.
hello, /fit/
I am 19 years old, 6'4, and weigh 287.6 pounds.
I have been fat my entire fucking life, and today is the day I decided that I am tired of it.
I'm tired of being friendzoned, I'm tired of being a pussy beta faggot. I'm ready to lose this shit and become the man I know I am.
Any weight loss advice or similar stories would be appreciated.
Teally simple. Track what you eat. Workout in some way whether it be running, weight lifting, anything to burn calories. The weight will come off.

Sup /fit/, what mental gains have you received as a result of your fitness practise?
If you can force yourself to squat when you are sure you're going to fail you have more mental toughness than 80% of the west
>>34864854
>of the west
The West is the best of a bad bunch, so you probably have more mental fortitude than 99% of Earth
