Also, that's not a skin disease.

>>
>>35151110
Just keep bulking, cut when you have mass. You don't look terrible here, just not particularly lean. Probably 17-19%.
>>
>>35151110
Bulk, really bulk for the next 6 months. Just fucking smoke weed and eat. Gain a little pudge, don't worry sbout peecentages. Just tear down the muscle and work your ass off, and then eat like a fat fuck. Worse comes to worse, you get stronger, bigger, ans you're what, 3 months awwy from being 15% BF.
>>
>>35151124
Thanks, man

>>35150907

Because I can't afford healthy food, let alone gym membership. Plus, I'm hardly ever hungry.

A-And I have started working out. I work out every second day, for forty minutes, when I get up: push-ups, planking, glute bridges/hip thrusts, tricep dips, squats, and then bicep curls.

I'm 6 or 6'1" and think I weight somewhere between 150-160lbs, so it's not that bad? I-I'm trying.
>>
>>35151163
No prob. Eat like it's your job.. how much do you weigh?

Eating is tough because I go to boarding school and we only get three meals a day. Should I stick to peanut butter sandwiches and milk from now on?
>>
>>35151257
I'm the same height, 240 at about 23-25%. Obviously carrying a decent amount of fat, but I know how to eat and get strong. Buy milk, buy cured meats, buy cheap Italian bread, full fat cottage cheese, pasta, and potato salad. I'm 20, you?
>>
>>35151255
I have issues keeping an appetite, others can't keep it in control. Either way, extremes are bad.
>>
>>35151219

Cheers anon, but I look at myself in the mirror and can both see and feel fat on my stomach and it irritates the hell out of me. I've always aspired to be healthy (at least in my eating, which means I usually eat less so as to use my money on healthy food), so I want to get a decent body.

>>35151255

> eat whatever the fuc you want

But I can't? I don't have the money to do this. My metabolism rate also has nothing to do with it, it's simply down to the fact that I can't afford to eat. I'm trying my best though.

>>35151257

Full-fat milk. You can get snacks for yourself though, right? Like almonds, cashews, walnuts, etc.

I have a question

Should us hungry skellies be counting calories? Or just eating as much as we fucking can? My diet is whatever they're serving in the dining halls until I can't eat a single bite anymore. Excluding dessert because I don't want that excess and completely unnecessary sugar/fat.
>>
>>35151345

Almonds, cashews, pistachios, and walnuts. Most preferably almonds because of the protein and fibre, and they're tasty. Don't get any salted or flavoured ones - you want natural (organic, if possible) ones.

Aim to eat and apple and banana everyday. Also, if you can, add a sweet clementine/tangerine to that too. Feel free to get other fruit too, like blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, etc., but only when you can manage to consume them all before they are no longer edible (for the sake of saving money).

Hummous and natural yogurts are also good, but they generally need consuming once you've bought them (unless you can store them in a fridge).

Eat healthy nigga.

I used to be super conscious about calorie intake and am currently at a probably unhealthy weight (120 lbs 5'9)

However I'm know more worried about nutrient intake over calorie intake. Pic related is my current diet I've set up for myself, not pictured is probably around 80 - 120 calories of tuna and sometimes anywhere between 200 - 500 calories of dry roasted edamame. Usually this is close to what I eat in a day though, give or take more.

I don't even exercise (I used to but will probably start again in the new year) and I feel like I have a ton more energy than I did before, I also drink a shit ton of water to balance out the flax seed/chia seed soaking in the water weight in my body. Shitting has been excellent and it seems like I've lost more belly fat compared to scarfing the same amount of calories in processed foods. I probably won't ever switch from whole foods.

Fun fact: eating lots of complex carbs like whole grains and fibrous veggies and fruits can "increase" your metabolism, since they are harder to break down it requires more energy for your body to process

>>35151568

>eating more or less 900 calories a day

Cmon anon. I mean healthy eating is good but 120lbs at 5'9 is a bit skinny. At least add like 1000 calories to your diet. That food is healthy but the intake is not

>I dont even exercise
That's an even bigger problem
>>
>>35151618
Sorry mang. Like I said I usually eat more. I should probably adjust because I've been getting full with the lunch and dinner thing but then 3 or 4 hours later I'll eat around 200 - 500 more calories of either nuts, protein stuff, or edamame.
>>
>>35151400
this is peasant as fuck, brah
>>
>>35151188
healthy food isn't the shit that comes in boxes

it's chicken, rice, oats, milk, eggs, and vegetables. that is all. learn to use those and you've got your diet set.

peanut butter is also nice and cheap. got a 4lb tin (cardboard, really) for $8

skip any multivitamin, only supplement actually worth money is fish oil. I am literally just spouting stuff from the sticky, read it.

why fish oil? I'm trying to eat healthy and gain weight.

>Plus, I'm hardly ever hungry.
you don't eat when you're hungry, you just eat you dumb nigger

you don't wait until your car is completely empty to put gas in it, you just make sure it is full periodically

just eat food, stop worrying about whether you're hungry or it's healthy. just eat food

>you don't wait until your car is completely empty to put gas in it, you just make sure it is full periodically

If you don't fill your car with gas when the red "almost empty" warning icon/light comes on, you're just wasting money.

Same with eating when you're not hungry, unless you are eating excess protein for cell repairs or complex carbs for energy you're just getting fat and it's a waste of incoming energy.

Omega 3 Fatty acids, not enough people get it in their diets. Helps raise good cholesterol and lower bad cholesterol, good for your heart.

Topkek.

Unsaturated fats contain chemicals that help improve processes in the body. They even help with your neurological system and help signals be sent faster up and down. Unsaturated fats can be found in most nuts, whole grains, olive oil, and coconut oil among other things. This should take up 80 - 90% of your fat intake.

Saturated fats are also important in your diet, but should take up 10% or less of your total fat intake. This is stuff found in butter, fat milk, vegetable oil etc. Eating too much for your fat intake can cause heart problems down the road.

Trans fats should be avoided altogether and is the most unhealthy kind that can clog up arteries.

In total, eat healthy unsaturated fats everyday, and they won't make you fat, just help with your body systems.

Nah dude, you just have to want to work for it. I'm 6'3 and I was always skinny but when I stepped on the scale one day and saw I was at 139lbs I said no more. I still have a ways to go to get to my goal of 175 but I'm somewhere around 158lbs scale died so I'm not sure. Start working out and you'll become hungry.

Exercise regimen is constrained because of stress at school, but it consists of body weight exercises to get some basic strenght and agility after 3 years of only doing cardio and last year failing to do it often enough due to stress.

Also doing nofap, this addiction is stronger than I anticipated. Like I get sometimes overpowered by desire and start to stroke my dick when alone to pictures and videos online even if I don't want to.

Cold showers manage to yank me out of the frenzy but still this does not feel like a victory at all. But I gotta keep going at it.

But after 2 months of exercise, my stomach is no longer protruding, it is flat. I wish I wasn't so lonely sometimes.

Now I don't even do bench weekly because I feel so week and defeated whenver I reach even 45kg.

just finished three plates of chili, put the fourth one back into the fridge for later. did shoulders and triceps today. i am trying, but i can't seem to get above 200lbs

>>35159467
do benchpress
bring the bar down to your chest, then push it up

You know what that means? It means you gotta bench 1-2 times weekly and up the weight 5lbs each time. Bench is bread and butter of lifting, and by you leaving it out, you're missing out on some serious gains

Nobody cares about you. People may see you and look at you, but as soon as they leave the floor you're forgotten.

I look at everyone when I'm at the gym, but I wouldn't recogize them if I met them outside. I forget about their faces as soon as I leave their field of view

That's because I maxed out my noob gains months ago. Lifting for a year:

75kg

I know it's a meme, but literally:

Read Starting Strength.

>>35159778
how will that help me overcome my anxiety anon?

plus
i heard strong lifts is better for a beginner?
>>
>>35159797

It will tell you how to into barbells.

>Stronglifts

It has two more sets for each exersise. That's about the only difference.

Read SS if only for form instructions and the theory behind moment arms and leverage and all that. It'll teach you about proper core bracing for all the lifts and where to hold/grip the bar in all the big compounds.
>>
>>35159713
If you're not strong enough to use a barbell then try machines. It doesn't matter how much you can lift, but how much progress you can make and how much effort you put into it.

And most gym goers are dyel, so even on machines an untrained person can outlift them and not look out of place. When I look over, most people just choose half the weight I do and then do really fast half reps. Some women just do 3x10 chest press with 10lbs then walk off.

How long did this take? What's your height and your starting weight and what is it now?
>>
>>35159881
Me and my friend always do 15 reps with only the bar before we put weights on the barbell.
We proceed to add 10-12,5-15kg each side.
In the beginning we added 5-7,5-10kg but we'd never reach our current lift if we never started somewhere. Think about that. You can't get anywhere unless you start off somewhere.
>>
>>35159937
makes sense anon.

gonna use the 5x5 app, which tells me to only do the bar 5x5 on bench and squat for some weeks.
>>
>>35159851
They're probably right, but I made most of my The Press progress on a machine starting at bar weight. But like I said, if you're too nervous/not strong for barbell stuff then machines can be an alternative for a few months.

>>35159881
In that case do bench with dumbbells, or do another exercise that builds chest. Just as a reference >>35159704 I've never actually done a barbell bench in my life, except maybe once in highschool. But I do 66kg 3x10 on a chest press machine so I'm confident I could bench 1pl8 for at least 1 rep. (hopefully). But I was also worried because you do need someone to spot you if shit goes wrong and I've never been social.

You could also look into the 100 pushup programme. I was always quite into bodyweight stuff and now I can do 50 pushups after only about a month of doing it.

Just know that most people in the gym are there for themselves and themselves only. If they see a skelly there, they'll probably just think "good for them for trying to better themselves"; that is, if they even notice you.

If you're just benching the bar, that's ok. Everyone kniws that everyone starts somewhere. If you need a spotter, ask the dude waiting to use the bench, because there'll usually always be someone waiting for the bench.

Just gotta build up the courage to go for the first time, and you'll feel better off. I also have social anxiety but after taking all of my courage to go to the gym alone, I felt better about going. There's no super douchebag motherfuckers that make fun of people like in the movies. Most, if not all people are extremely supportive and helpful (or just uncaring). We all go the gym for different reasons, but everyone has one common goal - to better themselves. And as long as you're not being an asshole yourself, you'll be fine.

Go to the gym anon. Lay down on that bench, and push up and down. You'll feel great

Tuna is pretty good. A can is less then 100 calories and 20g of protien. Doesn't have to be refrigerated, and if you get the per-drained stuff, you can eat it anywhere.

It comes pre-cooked. So you can heat it up if you want or eat it cold. I usually eat it cold.

I'm kinda worried about mercury, but an extra 20 or 40 g of protien can help balance out poor food choices/options.
