Get better at chin ups, then

And yeah stop drinking, easier gains

>>40527550
Yeah cut down on sugary and alcoholic drinks. Also do machine lat pulldowns if you can't do pull-ups

The sticky seems determined that machines shouldn't be used

I got a question about Vitamin D; sticky says 5000IU/day is optimal but the only ones I can get my hands on are 1000IU per pill and say specifically not to go over the recommended amount.

I don't wanna gamble with this and start popping 5x what this box is telling me.

Wut

Sticky is nonsense on intake, the standard dose is fine, too much causes cardiovascular calcification.

>>40527777
Thanks and nice quads

Is there anything else on the sticky that's glaringly wrong like this?

>>40527741
So do negatives or some shit. Google it, ya fuck

Protein intake, but ill get grief for saying this here: if you aren't frauding then a meat filled diet will have all the protein you need, shakes are just sugar that roiders are selling you as a chump.

To build mass you need to focus on carbs, that will be your limiting factor. Eat carbs and watch the gains pile on, or drink one Hardgainer Technological Extreme Pure Whey TM and watch yourself be a dyel faggot $500 down in a few years.

Thanks for the advice, of course i'm not gonna take it as gospel but it's good to consider a different side

>>40527942
Of course, I have shakes but just fine oats, 2 bananas, creatine, milk and water. Any doctor can tell you shakes just go to expensive urine or convert to fat in the first place.

Spend that cash on preworkout instead.
Also form, form, form. Don't get into bad habits that will damage your back. Good form will get you bigger quicker than bigger weight.

>>40527766
I didn't know what to call it. The things that counterweight your legs as you do incline sit ups (I said push ups like an idiot)

>>40528053
Oh, well just do captains chair and ab wheels instead. Oblique cable hammers as well.

I went to gym for the first time today, started doing SL 5x5 like a good noob I am. The guy at the gym recommended me a different program which is basically a brosplit. I did it it was hard as fuck.
Should I keep doing the brosplit or tell him to go fuck himself and continue SL I mean the guy was a powerlifting champion in my country 15 years ago.

>>40528229
Brosplits arent as bad as fit says, and they will really exhaust particular muscles for those DOMs, but big compounds are great for getting a great base strength, strong core and testosterone rise that will let you smash brosplits even harder down the line.

Do the compounds now for greater long term gains.

>>40528229
Oh also

Dont listen to them

I got a question about the whole cut/bulk phase. Everything I read is that you can't build muscle while on a cut. Yet, the same posts explain how muscle is built when the body heals the micro tears you suffer doing exercise. I don't see how these two match. So if you are on a cut, your body will refuse to heal?

>>40528535
If you are eating under maintenance the body won't heal properly, you will lose muscle and potentially injure yourself. Especially if you have little fat.

Yeah, I'll do that. I may switch to greyskull as it has bodyweight stuff which I like doing.
