Why is the fitness advice on this board bad? When half the board is shitposting DYELS and incels, you can't really trust anything on here. The sticky is mediocore, muh starting strength gomad
Second guy in the top row has a qt3.14 gf though.

It seems like traffic to this board has decreased a shit ton. Everything is moving slower than in years past.
The userbase on this board has shifted over to mostly beta DYELs who dish out the most retarded broscience advice while never realizing that their workouts are not progressing as quickly as they should. This drives away oldfags who have made it and newfags who actually lift and could probably bring good advice.
/fit/ is a wasteland now. I'd go somewhere else if I knew of alternatives.

It became really hard harrassing people and posting illegale or at least questionable material on 4chan.
I remember the old days when i used to regularly wipe my hd in fear of someone finding thumbnails that I never clicked or even saw.
the bad guys are gone, but also a good part of what made 4chan up. we are left with its shattered bones which houses the new guys.
same like the old ones, in search for validiation and adventures. but so different, so estanged.

This is the most legit response
i think most sensible dudes moved on to instagram or real life
Because it's filled with insecure kids for the most part who like anime that dwell on the internet. What do you expect?

/fit/ was never really the wild west like /b/ was back in 2010-11. /fit/ used to actually have a lot of good discussion and people who actually would lift heavy.
I actually used to post on /fit/ all the time, but now I rarely stop by. The few times that I've posted my current progress pics, everyone claims that I'm roiding, even though I'm natty and well within achievable natty limits for your average dedicated lifter. It's now just an autistic circle jerk of DYEL weebs who make themselves feel better by claiming "roids" whenever they see someone who actually lifts. It's the same reason why the most active threads now are FPH threads. Their fragile ego can't handle anything else.

Shitt, this is true lol. and most people on this board dont even know what they are talking about when it comes to fitness advice

agree, I've been on /fit/ since 2011 and lifting since around then and the amount of regurgitated garbage advice (that clearly is not backed by experience) is just fucking staggering now
especially summer /fit/, full of e-statters and nerds posting garbage
