>Highbar is GOAT confirmed
Why even waste time with >low bar squats?
People who recommend low bar:
rippetoad (copied meme program from reg park)
People who recommend high bar:
Coach Dietmar (the GOAT)
Coach Trappy (made me switch to high bar and now I'm even stronger and shoulders are healthier)
Coach Sheiko (even Kirill squats high bar!)
Coach CWS (who trains many top tier football players)
Highbar: Trains more muscles, keeps your shoulders healthy, improves mobility
Lowbar: Tries to cheat weight and fucks your body over it

>>40103202
Have you ever heard of the term "put your back in to it"
That's literally what lowbar does. It uses more muscle mass if you stay in the hips
>>40103259
kek, he doesnt bounce there
>>40103202
You should convince trappy to coach me too

>>40103305
you may be my idol but i wish youd stop falling for the low bar meme
Isley and Esmerlda just posted a video of them dogging in the Discord
>>40103305
Yo I hope your making mixed race babies with that nubian queen over there.
>>40103202
hybrid squat ala candito is the way to go
its just high bar with a wide stance so you only go to parallel, which naturally involves more hips
you still break at the knees, stay upright and all that good jazz
feels real comfy SENPAI
>>40103346
already did that for a while pretty shit DESU
>>40103321
Isley out squats you. It clearly works, as clearly does high bar.
Relax, it's not a war and hopefully you're better than the console vs pc fags cause that's what ya sound like
>>40103346
Candito switched to low bar though once he realized his meme was bad
>>40103377
how much heavier and how much older is he in comparison to me LOL
cant really compare the difference considering the gap is huge
>>40103362
it's basically what you're doing now though, no?
only difference i see is knees pointed out, while candito recommended forward and flat shoes
>>40103340

>>40103321
>low bar
>meme
>>40103426
no in the webm i clearly am doing full high bar
>>40103436
compare your squat to the video you posted >>40103294
how is yours full high bar, i.e. olympic style (because thats what everyone means when tehy say high bar)
yours is more like hybrid i'd say because of: wider stance, tees pointed out more, not as deep, not as upright
but ur the talent chad so who cares
>>40103471
high bar does not determine stance it determines bar position lmao i didn't say Olympic high bar i said high bar
>>40103484
and the hybrid squat is high bar
and you say ur not hybrid
but ur also high bar
HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
really makes u think
>>40103493
there is no such as a "hybrid squat" its just a wide stance highbar lmao it depends on your hip structure look at aleksey torokhtiy
>>40103574
so ur just disagreeing with semantics
thanks for reminding me about your age
when you said
>already did that for a while pretty shit DESU

>>40103283
SS --> TM --> Memeko
ur welcome
>>40103471
His stance, toes, depth, etc doesn't fucking matter. What makes it high bar is the bar position on his back. That's the only thing that matters.
>>40104175
I wish there was one available
but no
Cant squat high bar with a belt and without lower back rounding.
how fix
>>40103202
>>40103202
>>40104278
work on ham string and hip mobility ankles too
>>40104278
don't and become pete rubish
>>40104304
do you need to work on ankle mobility if you have oly shoes
>>40104359
Do you feel like the ankles restrict you? If yes then yes if no then do whatever.
>>40103471
Nah man, stance, etc. don't determine high-bar. Position on the back does. Also, not everyone can do a squat like clarence does. Take me - I will probably never be able to do it like him, because of structural differences. My squat will always look like Ops and still, I'll always do it high-bar.
>>40104359
i mean i did both but you should try hips and hamstrings first and if that doesnt work do ankles
>>40104378
i could do it like Clarence but ow my knee and its not a strong position for me
>webm related
>>40104418
Good for you man, but I just feel like my squat will always look like your variation in Op. I'm most definitely lacking the mobility (especially in my hip flexors and lower back) to do so, but I just feel like I will never be able to get in the Oly position even if I had better mobility.
>>40104470
how do you think that do you have extremely long femurs?
Hey, if you guys can can you check out my form on deads again? I know I've been asking a lot but i just want to make sure my form is ok.
i tried pulling with my hips a little higher this time on advice I got here, but I feel like there are still some issues. I think there's a little rounding in my back, especially near the last few reps for one.
Also, sorry that I dont have the initial setup in here, I asked the guy filming to get it but I guess he didnt understand
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ol0r8lUqB-Q&t=4m30s
do this for hamstring mobility
no risk for lower back rounding either
>>40104529
id say just a bit lower hips, chest up and tighten lats pull the bar back not up
>>40104478
>extremely long femurs
Extremely long meaning? I definitely have relatively long legs. Extremely long? Idk. What ratio are we talking about?
Also I've always been rather tight in the hips and the back, even as a child. Had really good body tension tho.
As I said, it's more of a feeling. When trying to get into the oly position it just feels like something is blocking my upperbody from 'sinking' between the legs. There's no stretch feeling or anything, it just blocks and stays back and I lose balance. Kinda like trying to hyperextend the ellbow.
Boring saturday
>>40104529
Focus more on thrusting with your hips when the bar is at your knees. Instead of thinking about lifting the bar up, think about shoving your butt forward.
This will also fix the weight shifting around your centre of gravity, and your soft lockout.
Pull with your lats, the bar is out of position often.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dm7ZbgjZklE
Your back seems fine, that small amount of rounding is usually just the muscles flexed. Your spine is inside the "vale" the two erectors create.
>>40104550
27-28 % is average femur length to body i have 22.7%
and the tightness is more than likely just bad mobility when i was a kid i was tight all over
>>40104546
>>40104571
>lower hips
well last time y'all said higher, so I'm just going back to how it was before, it feels better anyway
>tighten lats
I've heard this a few times now, I'll be honest im confused on how to. Is it like trying to "bend" the bar? and would that be by pulling "backwards" or pushing "forwards"? How do i into lat engagement?
>hip thrusting
yeah, i noticed that now. I usually do have better hip drive, but I wasnt really focused on that I guess, I'll keep it in mind as a major point next session. Nice to know that my back is probably ok though
Overall this was an ok day, I tweaked my lower back a bit earlier in the week and I think it may have impacted my lifts a bit.
>>40104575
25% is average and you measured wrong / are lying as nobody has 22%
Hey guys, my gym tends to have the power cages fulled up pretty quickly and I have no clue what exercise/lifts to do if they are taken. What are some lifts that can help with the Big Three without a cage?
>>40104611
>How do i into lat engagement?
Watch how Mike T pulls his "arm pits" back right before pulling in that vid.
Pulling with the lats means pulling the bar towards the centre of your body. This isn't a passive movement by gravity, you have to actively pull in order to keep the weight from shifting around or the bar from twisting.
>>40104611
>"bend" the bar
yes, do this now: extend your arms in front of you, and imaging bending a stick into a / \ shape, focus on the feeling in your lats and shoulders. now emulate the same feeling but instead of bending the stick you're just pulling it down, like a standing lat pullover
now do the same with your arms in a extended vertical position, like the deadlift
it's essentially just pushing the bar into your shins, sort of
>>40104575
Measurement isn't 100% accurate, but for me it's about 28-30%.
>>40104623
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Femur
sorry was off by .3
also no i have 15.5in femurs at 68in height
which 15.5/68=22.7
>>40104666
>>40104611
you could also see it as shrinking the pyramid in pic related. you increase the pyramid by rolling the bar away from you, and decrease it by pulling it towards you
>>40104693
why teh fuck did i write pyramid, i meant triangle
>>40104687
round up you faggot,
>>40104687
You're measuring wrong lol you fucking idiot

There was a webm circulating of a Brazilian boy who looked vaguely like a hobbit with a sub 350 wilks...
You have lots of webms, do you have that one? The one with the grey oval/box edited in, covering something important?
What was that hobbits name, heiny? Hank? Heinz? Hellifiknow? Lmao.
He did a cheap imitation of Mike t's pressure breaths and lat engagement. Then he proceeds to dribble his diddlies like a basketball in some poverty fovella.
Is any of this ringing a bell to anyone?

>>40105097
trappy's friend
>>40105097
it is the man behind the trappy trip, using pics of a facebook friend of his
and he will remain so until trappy proves with a timestamp that shes (hes?) the girl (guy?) in the pictures
there's NO link between powerlifting, weightlifting or strength training and the girl that's supposed to be trappy
there's however some "evidence" (not that convincing though) for haino being trappy
>>40105238
Then why are they still friends on facebook?
2+2 mate. every big name trip here knows trappy is livia, she probably just doesn't want anons to know.
>>40105257
still no proof of her lifting, or being in medical school, or anything else she claims
it's pretty weird that someone so passionate about lifting and coaching and everything else related, doesn't have a single picture near a weight
>>40103259
This kid looks like a total faggot, but his form is not the problem
>>40105296
there's a picture of her in the gym >>40103283

That's a restroom or locker room.
He's clearly fishing for juicy dongs.
i've been in the other ded thread for like an hour reeee
Squats tomorrow, I've gotta work on staying more upright. Doing box squats for too long got me too used to sticking my butt way back and now I've got some seriously ugly forward lean that's just rekking my spinal erectors. MAD crepitus when I try to massage them, it's pretty disgusting.

Wait, trappy claims to be in medical school? Idk what med school is like huehue land, but here in the states you can't spend all day posting pictures of anime girls with cocks on /plg/ and telling people to do sheiko.
>>40105443
I just re-gripped the bar wrong on the last set ;_.
>>40105471
It's summer break in Brazil.
Going to transfer from weightlifting to powerlifting this Monday due to an ankle injury (basically ankle dorsiflexion required for the bottom position in a clean or front squat feels like someone in twisting a knife in my ligament).
What sort of routine should I do? a 5x5?
Also I oly style squat 190kg, what can I expect to squat low bar after a few months?

>>40103377
It's actually exactly like the console vs PC argument.
The console scrubs only dislike the PC Master Race because they are indisputably better than the console peasants, and the console rubes are just buttmad that they can't afford a bitching gaming PC. Take it from me, I am a buttmad console fag that needs to get a job that isn't shuttling pizza to fat people so I can buy a bitching gaming PC. The point is, these retards are like high bar squatters.
The PC Master Race are low bar. Because it's indisputably, and without any qualification, better than high bar.

>>40104278
Don't go "ATG," you tard. Just hit depth (top of thigh at the hip joint level or below the top of the patella), MAYBE a small touch further to make it easier on the retards they get to judge this shit, and no more.
>>40104529
The bar needs to be an inch closer to you at address. Because it isn't, it's moving back into you right off the ground and you aren't getting a straight, efficient pull. Minor issue.
You also need to tighten your back before you start the pull. I think this is what Frog is talking about when he says "chest up."
Also, when lowering the bar, try not to flex your knees until the bar has reached them. Bend at the hips, sticking your ass back in order to keep the bar in balance and not swing it out in front of you, until the bar is at knee height, then flex the knees. This will keep your knees out from under the downward path of the bar.
>>40105422

Yes, but don't forget her fucking retarded orbiters. They are the ones who are really at fault.
any idea how to train chest with an impinged shoulder?
>>40108651
Seated fly machine, assuming your frame isn't wide enough to allow shoulder flexion relative to hand placement
It won't do much, but it can slow losses a bit

Picked up a pair of these babies a few days ago.

>>40108707
dumbbell
>>40108685
Coach Cavalcanti is at your service
>>40108735
I really dislike doing this. I tried doing them from a higher surface and it was a lot nicer than doing it from a bench, but it negated some of the movement from the lats into my upper back / traps.
I need to work lats directly.
>>40108719
Looked fun, but doesn't work lats?
>>40108707
>>40108784
Pendlay or Kroc
>>40108732
Exchange them or return them. I have flat feet but have never had any discomfort from heeled shoes.
Chances are they are just too narrow or something for your foot.
>>40108793
Do krok rows work lats? I thought it was mostly upper back, which I guess isn't necessarily a bad thing either.
>>40108810
You bet your ass they do. Can't get those big ass weights up by just using your upper back.
>>40108801
Yeah that's what I was thinking. Thanks m8
>>40108784
try every type of row, and every variation until you find one that works for you
for instance, seated cable row you could try close grip, medium grip, wide grip, strict form, loose form, touching on your abs, touching higher, high reps, low reps, different handles, different degrees of leaning back, using more biceps (i.e. gripping the handle hard), or less biceps, shorter rom, longer rom
and then you can do all these variations (where applicable) on db rows and barbell rows or whatever row you try
>>40108844
:) I'll do them then
>>40108858
Good idea, I've been trying different rows instead of trying different variatnts of the same row, which is a fair point.
Definitely worth a play around.
Thanks lads

hmm really makes you think
>>40109338
Your shit's all fucked.
Remember:
Bar moves in a straight line perpendicular to the floor.
In your case it's moving forward, when it has to stay over midfoot all the way up and down.
Lowbar and highbar depend on your proportions. As long as you can squat to parallel with the bar over midfoot and spine straight/arched you're fine.
>>40109380

is that 1RM? i left my gold sig wrist wraps there about a year ago
youre divebombing the fuck out of your squat, yeah it came up ok but it looked awful and you lost all tightness
your bench you had no tightness either, you were moving around and your feet were moving so they werent screwed in
the deadlift i watched 5 times and id have to be really picky and anal to point anything out
>>40109841
foot is allowed to move, but not raise

Yup. It's closing soon unfortunately.
I don't bench like that for volume work, it does usually look a bit better.

why is dietmars programs still 3 times a week?
wasn't higher frequency better in every sense
>>40109895
ahh no whats happened to tony?
Thought of the day:
Physically speaking, the strongest speed for squatting is doing most of it moderately slow but divebombing the final part.
By doing the initial part slowly, you avoid accelerating the bar down too much, and avoid small technique mistakes.
By divebombing the final part, you maximise your power production off the bottom with a more powerful stretch reflex.
However,
Not a single person squats this way.
They either go fast all the way, or moderately slow all the way.
Really makes you think.
>>40109895
what are you trying to show me? you get thrown off line in the hole on every squat, big lateral movement in the hips, not good for your lumbar spine
and the bench, loose every rep, get tight, you should be able to have someone trying to push you out of position and youll realise how loose you are

It's from a study on olympic weightlifting. I remember Pent posted it once on /owg/, it included the actual calculations that showed the difference in the acceleration you had to fight off the bottom for every style.
Interesting stuff, but for some reason it doesn't seem practical. I wonder if this is a limitation from our nervous system, or if it's just something people don't really care about training.
>>40109968
He keeps constant speed, moderately slow all the way through.

No.
Mental fatigue, and lack of time for conditioning are problems with high frequency.

who cares about john paul
he's a manlet who falls backwards when squatting
>>40110016
>>40110011
please stop memeing at me
My real question is, am i better off doing accessories after my main lifts 3 days a week, or the next day as an accessory day?
Or should i do accessories one day a week on Saturday?
>>40110019
>I remember Pent posted it once on /owg/, it included the actual calculations that showed the difference in the acceleration you had to fight off the bottom for every style.
Is this what Caladan is talking about in pic related
>>40103428
>lel she's like 110kg
FUCK YOU.
>>40110056
Now that's more like it.
So if it is doable to squat like that with heavy weights, there's two conclusions
- It's a bad way to squat for some reason, maybe cause it fucks technique
or
- A squatchad who trains to develop this motor pattern can become unmatched in competition, since no one else seems to do this.

Textbook projection.
I'm the first person to admit when I'm wrong, change my opinions if shown how they're wrong with reason, or disclaim when talking about an opinion which still can't be proven 100% one way or the other.
Most of my opinions are nuanced, and I always keep a levelhead and never bring it to the personal level when discussing or debating something.
That's not to say that I'm a saint and never do anything wrong or act rude to people.
But you won't see me acting like this >>40109930

I haven't seen someone this deluded about their own personality faults since Sean and his make-believe Maserati.
Garage bro brings up good points. Just because it rustled your homo butt feathers doesn't mean that you should go into full cunt mode just yet.
But go ahead and argue yourself out of other people's opinions. They are wrong aren't they? And you are right? Objectively scientifically morally ethically etc etc?
>>40110170
I actually do it all the time. People just don't notice cause it's not drama.
My article about deadlifts, for example, received at least 3 corrections that were pointed out by anons (though recently I have found out through reading a McGill interview that one of those things I changed was actually right before).
My article on pullups and chinups was completely redone from the start and I disclaimed that the old one was completely wrong and inaccurate.

I'm going to do an SL variant instead. My gym doesn't have any bumper plates and there is no room to do power cleans, i hate this gym.
trying to get my strength back to where it was, i got a lot weaker after a cut and i moved. so i've decided to not even attempt a 1rm for 6 months and to focus on strength for now
But ok, i'll try and get them all done on the same day
tomorrow's work out
5x5 squat
5x5 ohp
1x5 deadlift (i want to do some back off sets as well)
5x5 weighted chin ups
5x10-15 ab curls
5x10-15 push downs
>>40110202
McGill is GOAT. His take on neuro drive and max effort single pullups are intestering as well:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EdveLFrh9U8
Let's you handle a lot of pullup volume even if you can't do a lot of reps.

Is trappy-chan a satirical character of a know-it-all millenial?
>>40110236
okay
What are your macros %?
I think I'm going with 20% protein, 50% carbs, 30% fats
>>40110292
+3k calories
+150 protein
lots of carbs, enough fat
>>40110292
Using %s is a meme. I just make sure to get 1.5-2g of protein per kg of bodyweight and fill the rest with carbs. Fats usually end up being around 20%
>>40110337
>>40110302
>>40110292
I know I shoulnd't worry about it too much,I just want to loosely track them
>>40110363
I'd say keep fats as low as possible and focus on carbs for people that lift weights. 30% is pretty high.
Do you think PLG will ever return to its glory days?
Past few threads we've had 90 individual posters, but threads last 12 hours?,

>>40110363
>>40110410
Fats are important tho,they have an impact on hormones
>>40110667
Tbh if you eat even a remotely balanced diet you're getting enough fat. I don't really have a dog in the carbs v fat thing, I don't try to avoid either unless I'm dropping weight, then I try to avoid both, mostly by not eating pizza.
>>40110667
And it doesn't take much to keep your hormones good. 15-20% of your daily calories is more than enough assuming you aren't cutting.

He shows up every once in a while :) he was here earlier this week, shared his "sheiko-like 5 day program" (pic related), mentioned his back is getting better, etc.
>>40110423
Most of the trips that have left are not coming back. So no, it won't go back to what it was.
But it might get better in the future.
Threads have been slow because of the small amount of shitposting, though. Which some people would say it's a good thing.

That's a whole lot of Stacco at pretty high intensity

But you shit post every single day

Is it possible to do sheiko in 90 minutes or less?
>>40110789
Yeah, don't split the sessions and rip through the accessories. Also don't do the large load programs.
>>40110789
Yeah. Keep maxes relatively low in order to not require long rests and skip accessories if needed.

Would you guys recommend high bar done to just parallel or full Ass to grass?
>>40110846
literally, whatever the fuck you want m8.
Personally i feel like i slams my quads more if i don't go all the way down. But thats because i spent forever going all the way.
>>40110846
A bit below parallel.
>>40110841
Trappy didn't kill anything, shitposters did.
>>40110749
Hey trappy, i'm doing TM with 1x5 deadlifts on friday.
I want to include some deficit deadlifts to help me with breaking my deadlifts off the floor better.
I plan to do these on monday, after squat+bench/ohp volume.
what sets/reps/percentage should I be looking for?
>>40110889
>>40110894
So I used to do low bar and felt it wasn't good for me so I switched to high bar atg and hit new records but I'm stalling again and was thinking to go to near parallel and retrain that for a while until that stalls
>>40110935
If you're going to play with anything, just make small adjustments to stance width to start off.
>>40110931
5x3 80-90% of your 5RM (more or less 70-80% of your 1RM)
>>40110846
Half way between parallel and atg, for most powerlifting purposes.
Some may argue this is still too low though.
>>40110959
As in slowly widen from narrow atg to a more wide near parallel? Sounds good
>>40110931
Oh, and here's something that might be useful, specially for the bench (I also recommend increasing number of sets on light day for the bench).
>>40110969
>>40110981
thanks!
for increasing sets on light day, do you mean go up to something like 5x5 with 75% of VD?
>>40110202
Trappy, if I find my upper back collapsing on heavy squats, what assistance work can I do to fix this? I grip pretty close, my back is tight, I think of all the relevant cues, but I think it's just a weakness. would Rows fix this and how often should I do them?
http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/18530485/police-arrest-man-pulling-false-alarm-pittsburgh-steelers-hotel
What an absolute leg.
Why do I keep having cycles of depression and anxiety?
>>40111054
Rows would help, I'd wager spinal erectors are the cause of the problem. (I might be wrong)
I would do lots of weighted back extensions, maybe snatch grip deadlifts, maybe rack pulls.
Anything you find enjoyable and allows you to add more weight
>>40111188
do sheiko
>>40111203
I don't like sheikh because I don't like being unsure that I'm making progression for several months on end, as well as I don't like wasting months of work due to an injury.
>>40111188
Because you don't have the motivation to seize your happiness and you aren't driven. Find what you care about or like. Do what you can to achieve it. Having a purpose does more for someone's happiness than most people realize.
>>40111293
Hitting deep there lmao.
Sure, I guess I don't have any goals right now, other than goals in the weight room, which surprisingly just hold little weight because they are so long term.
Idk what I enjoy outside of lifting though.
>>40111054
Front/SSB squats, paused squats, SGDLs.
>>40111188
No purpose, no drive, no goals.
Only thing keeping me together right now is hitting goal weight of 185 in a month and hopefulness that the job I start soon will give me enough responsibility and tasks to complete so that I don't sit on my ass day in and day out contemplating why I feel so shitty.
I recommend running late at night when it's pouring outside. Nothing has made me feel better in the past 2-3 years than panting like a dog in the blistering cold winter air after a hard run.
>>40111349
yeah running in shitty conditions is good for the mind
skip the music too and it becomes even more meditative
just (You) vs (You)
>>40111349
Surely you don't feel this depressed just because you haven't achieved something great? What else depressed you?

I WANT A GF
Trappy Chan is a Sean character
Does Sean still post here?
I want to take back everything I've said...
>>40111429
I mostly put up a facade of strength desu.
I'm deeply bitter, jealous, and possessive to the point of it immobilizing me. I believe it stems from my youth and current environment. I was always the one picked last and have been more affected than I'd like to admit about my general looks and attractiveness, enough to the point I still avoid mirrors because it sours the rest of my day.
I latch onto people that show me love but am not good at giving it back, instead acting cold and indifferent. In the past few years I have ruined a few relationships with family members and friends because of this.
In the end, my goal is just to become a better person who is responsible, independent and one who can appreciate others and have other people look up to. I'm happy that I'm as self-aware as I am but it drives me to pints of insanity pretty often.
if you do dumbbell flies, you are literally a caveman.

>>40111510
You sound like you need to uproot from where you are and do something ridiculously dangerous or go on a long adventure that will challenge you.
I've felt this way and went hitchhiking in a foreign country for a few months. Best decision I ever made. And frankly, the hardest one I've ever had to go through with. Once I finished my journey, everything else back in the real world seemed like a joke and I felt like I had a purpose. Good luck friend.
>>40111510
>I latch onto people that show me love but am not good at giving it back, instead acting cold and indifferent. In the past few years I have ruined a few relationships with family members and friends because of this.
This is me too.
I have an issue where I get easily over whelmed and I can't see the full picture until it's too late. I get really needy and after a while I forget to think about other people. I'm too self centred, and I don't mean to be, I just end up feeling discarded, alone and unwanted and I forget to show others want and appreciation.

This is precisely why I'm joining the AF. I know it's mostly gonna be corporate bullshit but it is at least a head start into me becoming the responsible and independent person I want to be.
I'm also hopeful once my contract is up and I come back home, I'd have dealt with enough bullshit to make the rest of my civilian life a joke in comparison.

If there was still fighting going on and the role of grunt wasn't sidelined to just be a glorified janitor at this current time, that is the route I would have most likely taken.
The desire to be part of something bigger than myself has been eating at me for a while.

My barbell curl is shooting up.
I'm super hyped to curl 1pl8 for 12
at what bf% should I cut
deadlift pyramid it is
>>40111890
Unironically 18%
>>40111054
Rows won't help. Front squats are the main accessory for this (paused or rack holds are also good).
Strengthening your quads will also help, so doing more back squat volume at lower weights.
And trying harder to stay more upright :)
>>40111890
Dietmar recommends 15-17% bf as the most "competitive" range during preparation periods.
>>40112083
cut to how much?
10? 12?
Also, how long does it normally take?
>>40112120
But I don't compete
>>40111510

i love you
>>40112149
I would say don't go below 12 but really it depends from person to person
It can take any amount of time depending on how hard you cut and how much exercise and cardio you do
>>40112149
So it doesn't matter. Stay in whatever bf% range you want.
>>40112178
I could care less. I am sorry to be the baron of bad news, but you seem buttered, so allow me to play doubles advocate here for a moment. In an age where false morals are a diamond dozen, true virtues are a blessing in the skies. We often put our false mortality on a petal stool like a bunch of pre-madonnas, but you seem to be taking something very valuable for granite. so I ask you to mustard up all the strength you can because it is a doggy dog world out there. Although there is some merit to what you are saying it seems like you have a huge ship on your shoulder. In your argument you seem to throw everything but the kids Nysnc, and even though you are having a feel day with this I am here to bring you back to into reality, because it's now like the pot calling the kettle cracked. I have a sick sense when it comes to these types of things. It is almost spooky, because I cannot turn a blonde eye to these glaring flaws in your rhetoric. I have zero taller ants when it comes to people spouting out hate in the name of moral righteousness. You just need to remember what comes around is all around, and when supply and command fails you will be the first to go.
Irregardless, make my words, when you get down you brass stacks it doesn't take a rocket appliances to get two birds stoned at once. It's clear who the pants in this relationship, and sometimes you just have to swallow your prize and accept the facts, instead of baking a half bread effort. You might have to come to this conclusion though denial and error but I swear on my mother's mating name that when you put the petal to the medal you will pass with flying carpets like it's a peach of cake. Except the fax. Irregardlessly, I guess it was inevadible....
