First.

are there any good mobility/streches/strength exercises i can do everyday to fix my weak wrist/forearms/elbows?

i work as a programmer 8hrs a day, play guitar & piano, and powerlift

i feel like my arms never get any rest, or any love for that matter. they're constantly aching or hurting, or getting injured. just writing this hurts my wrists a tiny bit

i don't want to quit any of these activies, help plz

Is Tamoxifen or aromatase inhibitor alone (without steroids) effective for cutting fat?

I don't believe in short cuts. If I had to work from fatty borderline alcoholic to lean (soon) and big without help then other people should do it too.

>>40148709
24%. With wrong fat distribution pattern (stomach rather than ass). This is my personal upper acceptable limit. I'm okay with it if it doesn't expand further. But I know it will. I would be okay with as much as 30% if it was ass fat, not stomach fat.

Nothing lazy about dirty bulking when lean bulking simply doesn't happen.

If you're super autistic about your intake and you don't cut too hard, you can actually gain some muscle, or at least barely lose lean mass, assuming you're not too advanced, which you most likely aren't. Jesus cut while on TM and gained like 1-2 lbs of muscle, DEXA confirmed.

>I don't believe in short cuts.
Following your logic, people with natural high testosterone should take anti-androgens to avoid "shortcuts". With all respect, I don't think so. I think training against unfavourable endocrine environment is masochistic, irrational, counterproductive and unnecessary.

>>40148853

That's a bit of a leap in the dark really, if you're born with a natural advantage then that's not a short cut. Thats just an advantage.

I don't encourage short cuts but I haven't been training long enough to face the wall you may be approaching. I just hope that you know it's the right decision for you before you make it.

Nice link, thanks.

Also what did you mean by "recomp"?

>>40149097
Recomposition is where you take one year off lifting to allow all your cells to be replaced which rids of any injuries as you are fully replenished.

>>40149021

>>40149097
Where you don't change weight much, but increase lean mass. It's a slower route than cutting where you train at maintenance calories. If you find you lose weight too quickly and start to stall increase the calories by 200. It's hard to accurately determine activity level when calculating your base calorie requirements.

>>40149112
Talking about cooking doesn't work for me. I need hands-on guidance. I need to share a flat with someone who lifts and cooks well (ideally a big strong woman with big testicles).

Interesting, thanks.

>>40149154
I'm skeptical about my capacity to accomplish any recomposition on maintenance calorie level. I fear I will just stall. Maybe not, but that's a real possibility that needs to be taken into account.

>>40148935
>If you're born with a natural advantage then that's not a short cut. Thats just an advantage.
So what about hypogonadal men, in whom deficient testosterone makes lean gains outright impossible? Should they passively accept their condition and lift in vain? Why should they even lift?

Is therapy for hypogonadism a "shortcut"? It's not... but who decides which level of testosterone is "legitimate" for HRT? There's no objective level here, it's all human judgement. A philosopher could argue that "hypogonadism" is relative, everyone is born with testosterone deficit, as there's no such thing as "too strong".

Except hypogonadism is objectively a disease and causes other malfunctions that aren't just not being strong/being able to lift more. The levels that are below the average threshold are those that should be treated, statistical normality of the reference class is used to determine whether something is dysfunctional or not.

>>40149361
If you let people decide which testosterone level is "a medical condition" based on their liking, your argument against anabolic steroids becomes circular logic. Who is to say that normal testosterone level isn't "a medical condition"? Do you equate normality with health? Dying is normal too.

>>40149392
>hypogonadism is objectively a disease
By this logic, almost all women are ill because they have testosterone levels that objectively impair their capacity for male sexual function (speaking objectively, i.e. without gender prejudice).

>Statistical normality of the reference class is used to determine whether something is dysfunctional or not.
People still falling for this fallacy... in 2017... This is why we can't into space 50 years after the Apollo programme.

Your "normality" is malleable depending on the reference class of choice. Abnormal becomes normal depending on the whim of the authority. According to your logic, Superman is ill because he is statistical outlier, and dying is healthy because it's statistically normal. Your norms speak more about you and your dogmas than about reality.

>>40149631
>Women's test levels are impaired because they're not the same as the average man
That's not how that works, at all. If you aren't baiting, both sexes have their own average testosterone levels. That point was genuinely something so stupid I don't think I could match it in its stupidity.

>Superman is ill because he is a statistical outlier
No, the key point is that normal functioning is impaired, which I did admittedly not make very clear in the previous post. If someone was super fit or has excellent cardiovascular ability, it doesn't make them necessarily ill because this isn't impairing their function.

>>40149631
Sounds like some existentialist bullshit justification for taking steroids desu.

Why don't you stop getting all philosophical to try and justify it to strangers and stand by your short cut and fuck what we think?

It's called having an open mind. I know it's alien to 4chan.

>both sexes have their own average testosterone levels
If dividing people into arbitrary population clusters that match your prejudice is acceptable, then I'm free to say that I have my own singular testosterone level which shouldn't be compared to other men. Or, please, put me in the same cluster as HYPERGONADAL men where my present testosterone level is statistically subnormal. Why do you want me to aim low? You're just trying to cuck me (and yourself).

What if I demonstrate that your strength is statistically abnormal? (Which likely is.) Will you cut your strength to fit the norm?

>Stupid doctors
I never said doctors weren't stupid. Just because someone got through med school, it doesn't make them intelligent, although just because someone is stupid, it doesn't necessarily make them a bad doctor.

>Dividing people into groups of 1 or groups of solely dysfunctional people
Literally not how that grouping works, at all. Randomly selected populations of people tend towards a normal distribution once the population reaches 30 (or higher) and there are all sorts of statistical tests and protocols to attempt to ensure such ridiculous groupings don't exist, or at the least, are caught. You're either strawmanning and don't realize, or you're baiting me hard as fuck, which I must admit has been very successful.

>Will you cut your strength
Like I said, if it doesn't cause dysfunction despite not being the norm, I.e. heart rate is lower than average, someone is faster than someone else, then that person is healthy. And with that last part, I'm almost 100% certain that you've been baiting this whole time.

>>40150345
You're probably worrying too much. You don't technically need a belt to compete (especially since you're just trying it for fun), and a singlet can be had for as little as ~$35.
How much is the entry fee?

>>40150721
I don't know too much about the entry fee it doesn't seem to mention it, but the director's contacts is in the meet info. The membership fee is 50 bucks and I'm worried I won't have enough for a singlet and belt. I hope to pull 500 or a bit more. Bench is weak, only 275.

>>40150780
I figure I can find out the entry fee by asking the director via email. I'm just trying to get everything settled 2 weeks before the meet. Obviously registering 2 months in advance.

Any tips regarding a first meet? I kind of want to be at 225 at least. if I have to maintain that's fine too, I just thought it'd make my lifts appear better.

Seems like I won't be able to go to the event. It's $120 just to enter plus the $50 membership fee. I was really hoping I could do some event this year.

>>40150780
>>40150884
$50 isn't too bad, I think. I've heard of it being around $90.
First meet tips:
- Hydration is pretty important. I just use salted water, but most people take Gatorade or something.
- Bring food. Meets take a long time, so have something to eat that's easy for you to digest.
- Set conservative openers. It's easier to make a big jump between your first and second attempts than it is to deal with an overestimated first.
- Don't bother cutting for your first meet. If you're not making a total that's going to get you something (qualifying, placing, whatever), which you probably won't on your first meet, then it just adds complexity to the process. Baby steps.
- Talk to the other lifters. You can learn a lot from them.

>>40151179

Where the fuck do you live that you have more than like three options?

>>40151179

A lot of places have gyms that do novice meets, which generally aren't fed-affiliated so there's none of the complications stemming from that.

>>40151548
I live in a small town and all the meets that are semi official are either in Indy or Ft Wayne. Others are so far out of the way it wouldn't really mean much to go out of my way to attend a meet just to test the waters.

>>40151575
I wouldn't even know where to look. I'd love to go legit if Powerlifting is something I enjoy, eventually.

776 lb total, 77.5kg bodyweight

OK guys, here it goes, take 2 at getting strong

I stopped powerlifting a few months ago when i moved, i didn't work out for a few months, and then went pretty casually and did some meme shit as i cut, pic related, i actually look better even though i'm weaker

I never got to my strength goals in the year i spent power lifting, but considering how weak i was and that i had a horrendous back injury at the start that's not too surprising

But this year, this is the year i will hit my goals

my all time 1rm bench is 86kg, that's gone down to 82kg right now

my all time 1rm squat is 130kg, that's gone down to 115kg

my all time deadlift was 165kg, that's down to 155kg.

at the same time i went from 82kg to 76kg, now i'm back to 77.5kg as i started to eat more protein

so over the next 11 months i need to add 18kg to my bench, 25kg to my squat, and 25kg to my deadlift in order to get to my 1st goal of 1/2/3/4, and then i'll work on my 2nd goal of a 1000lb total

This isn't as big as what i did in my first year, where i went from a 1rm bench of 35kg, a 1rm squat of 45kg and a 1rm deadlift of 50kg to my best old numbers above.

Right now my upper back feels like shit from barbell rows yesterday, so i'll sleep on the floor tonight and begin my new program tomorrow, unless the gym is closed for the holidays, and if it is i'll start my new program the first day it reopens

I hope you don't mind me posting updates, if you really do i'll post them with my trip so you can filter me if i really bother you

>>40151709
I started with SL5x5, somehow i did some variation of it going 6 days a week and doing less volume per day, i think i also did a 5 day texas method at some point, but i was trying to get away form my parents at the time, if i was in the house they would yell at me constantly.

and at some point did the P2W true novice program and it really got me to my strongest

I tried SL5x5 this week, and honestly i remember why i stopped, fuck 5x5 squats i'm pushing too much weight to do that, and barbell rows make me want to kill myself

i'll try the P2W advanced novice program with only really minor changes to the accessories and added OHP, slightly more tailored to my goals, fighting my personal weaknesses.

I really do have shitty genetics, but i think it's also due to chemical exposure and malnutrition as a kid

>>40151771
a normal average person would have reached them in their first year, but i not only fucked my back up at work, but i was also eating a shitty diet of my mothers shitty cooking, and was weak as shit when i stated. I'm fully confident i can reach these goals this year.

Korea is ok. it's better than living with my parents

So, Adidas is releasing new shoes.

These are the Adidas Crazypowers.
Heels in TPU (the stiffer material, in contrast to EVA from PP2 and PL2s, or rubber from cheaper shoes).

Effective heel height seems to be 2.1cm, the same as the PP2 and Drehkraft. But we have no actual confirmation so far.

Seems inspired by the PL3s, similar asymmetric design, same thick strap, etc.

What do you guys think of it?

How's your sleep? And honestly, it might just be a better option to do a full on intermediate program instead of trying to squeeze out the last of your noob gains.

>>40151828
i wasn't allowed to leave the house except for school, going to work (i would work Saturday and Sunday every week and they would not allow me to spend money, so i had to hide anything i purchased from them or get their permission to buy anything) and going to Taekwondo twice a week.

Other than that, i was never allowed to leave the house. even in my 20's when i moved home after university they would demand to know where i was going and when i'd be back

my brother and sisters are all a lot older than me and didn't believe me. now that two of them have stayed with our parents as adults, they agree our parents are bullies. and the less ineraction we have with them the happier we are

They are bullies, they starved me as a kid told me i was an accident and blamed me for being poor, me for my mum's health problems, were constantly controlling, always going through my bedroom and going through my stuff and generally sabotaging my life. my mother was signing dodgy legal documents with my name to have me registered as mentally handicapped to get government money. in the end she got $350 a year she spent on golf and i was excluded from the army and any job at university. my "mental disability" is social anxiety btw.

fuck them, they belittled and sabotaged me at every single opportunity. they have stolen 1000's of dollars from me and ruined my childhood. And before you say i'm just overstating things, 3 out of 4 of their kids no longer speak to them outside of holidays, 75% of their kids agree they are toxic bullies.

If you look at that modified program, the accessory days have a lot of volume.

should i add something else there?

>>40151947
I am so sorry that you were born into that. Should cut them out completely.

>>40151995

Five sets twice a week is not a tremendous amount of volume.

I wouldn't say add stuff to that routine - because you do have to account for doing 24 near-max sets a week on the big lifts - but at some point that tradeoff has to be changed. You can't be in full specificity peaking mode the entire time.

>>40151947

1MB, 1042x939px

But that's not all.
Adidas is releasing the Leistung 2, the highend of their lifting shoes.

It has 2.5cm heels (vs 2cm from adipowers and romaleos) just like the previous version, but the new design features a hybrid between the Boa closure system, and regular laces, instead of being entirely relying on the Boa (which people didn't seem willing to adopt).

And I must say, looks much better than the Leistung 1. That was an abomination.

And here's the other colour available for the Leistung 2.
Looks similar to the Crazypower of the same colour. >>40151868

>>40152099

If by 'strength training' you mean '5x5', then yes. A program approach that is generally not used by anyone strong who doesn't also have other major training stresses going on.

There's more to strength training - and getting maximally strong - than just deciding that everything forever and always must be comp lifts for low reps. That's not super effective. Especially not for a guy who is still 20lbs or more under his effective weight class.

File: Adidas Adipower Solid Black.png (1MB, 1477x1236px) Image search: [Google]

1MB, 1477x1236px

And that's still not all, Adidas is releasing a new colour for the Adipowers.
Solid black :)

2cm heels, as always, with the same torsion system (a bar that crosses the inside of the midfoot heel).

I might be wrong, but it seems like the adipowers will only be available in solid black and white/black - meaning the black/red colour might not be sold anymore once their stock is out (just like the old orange/red colour)

well i'm legally mentally handicapped

The army required me to undergo 6 months of psychologist treatment and drug testing payed for by me to even consider letting me join (Australian military) this is after i passed all their tests and they wanted me in their officer program.

She opened any mail that says "PRIVATE AND CONFIDENTIAL" and then signed my name on a letter to the university stating that i was mentally handicapped without telling me. this basically excludes me from any university jobs . it took me three years to find out why i couldn't get any work in the university student work programs.

Fuck these are ugly shoes. I'm glad I picked up some Red Adipowers. Because of how trash Adidas are at making nice looking shoes the price of original adipowers keep going up and up, I got a nice investment going.

>>40152187

Right now? Nothing. Run what you've got and learn how it works for you.

In the future? Doesn't really matter about the exact one. The point is just to spend a month or three accumulating big volume so you can make your next intensification routine more effective (ideally because you'll be going into it bigger and fresher).

>>40152187
>>40152187
>well i'm legally mentally handicapped
just to be clear, my tested IQ is between 120 and 146, (I think IQ tests might be dumb...) but i'm socially handicapped due to abuse as a child causing social anxiety and problems connecting to people. this is apparently considered a mental disability, or at least it was.

I am no longer on the government's books as handicapped, as after turning 21 my mother could no longer re-register me for money and it lapses after 3 years, but i am still on the army's list as mentally unstable due to this.

They will also make you a complete custom shoes if you want, and even customise the heel height if you ask. Though in those cases it can take a bit longer to get the shoes.

It's so wrong that trappy is unsupportive to trap lovers. Not giving them own love AND ALSO not helping them find love. If a trap won't help you find trap love... who will? It's a trap's duty to spread trap love.

>shortcuts

1. Creatine is a shortcut too. Do you refuse to take creatine too? I doubt it. What defines allowed supplementation from unallowed supplementation, other than prejudice? Effectiveness? More effective = more wrong? Sounds like self-sabotage to me.

2. What if you can't get somewhere without a shortcut? For example because you have very little time, and later will be too late. (Because you will be executed on electric chair. Or you will embark on another project on certain date. Or your life is going to be cut short due to a degenerative illness. Or your funds/sponsorship will run out.) Or simply because you are not blessed with great genetics. Will you peacefully accept failure?

Malanichev runs several times a week, why don't you

>>40153967
1. Because Achilles tendinitis.
2. Because burning fat causes muscle loss.

>>40153975
Nobody forces you to burn fat while running.

I took creatine for like a week. All these hypothetical justifications of steroid use sure are swaying me to mess up my endocrine system.

I have peacefully accepted failure and moved on to succeed in other ways. I hope you can learn to do the same.

>>40154513
I don't take roids because I'm a scrooge but if had enough jewgolds and access to a good endocrinologist I'd cruise my entire life.

That said I wouldn't want to compete at tested feds because that's cheating.

But as long as you don't cheat it's okay.

>>40154651
well i'd like to compete one day. I won't break world records, I won't become the strongest in the world, but I will do it in style and have a nice time.

It's a hobby/sport that brings me peace and gives me something to look forward to. I want to do it forever.

>>40154696
You can compete in roid feds though.

Im aight

I fucked up my back in mid August doing very trivial construction work in my garage and it just healed by now. This means I haven't been in the gym since then at all.
What should I expect now I'm returning? What should be my routine? I did 5/3/1. I think my lifts will be so horrible I'll cry right there in the gym.
