Increase reps until you can do 10, then increase weight

Can someone post the Jow Forums supplement image to get crazy hard erections? It was an image idk if it was to battle erectile dysfunction but it was pretty in-depth.

unassisted
I only used them for doing assisted pistol squats. One of my friends used them to do dumbbell squats.
lol ok guy

Are compression pants worth it for training in the gym? Or is it all just a meme?

how do you work around a shoulder impingement

That's what I intend to do actually.

What are some good exercises for posture? I've only been lifting for a few weeks but I'm still a fucking golem when it comes to standing up straight. My friend tells me shrugs are good but I don't really feel like they're helping me that much

go to a physiotherapist with that.

AYY LMAO


Here's my question:
As the weight goes up on my squat I worry that I'm starting to lose form or not go low enough because I'm so concerned with just getting the bar up. Is it worth it to stall the weight increase or even deload a bit just to focus on form for a while? Or should I carry on and weight until I fail my first set before I deload like my programme says?

A few weeks isn't much. Posture is, unfortunately, a pain in the ass.
Squats and deadlifts for posterior chain, planks for core, facepulls for rear delts/rotator cuff, this for your neck: youtube.com/watch?v=l_z6e3PzhGo
For stretching: you should really stretch everything but particularly lats, hip flexors, possibly chest

lifting with bad form is going to get you injured sooner or later, so it's better to play it safe for long term gains
although don't be one of those people who resets at the slightest hint of something getting difficult - there's a difference between slow reps and your form breaking down
take a video of yourself to check and continue from there

What if my form is fine and I'm just not going low enough? e.g. I'm pretty sure I'm not butt winking cos my lower back is fine

AYY LMAO

not going low enough isn't having good form if you care about hitting parallel or lower
it wouldn't be a passing lift in a comp
if you don't care about that, then do whatever you want but to me it's like people that say they have a 3 plate bench and then do half reps

lads, what's a good macro split you recommend?

How is the nutritional value of pasta or rice calculated?

Is it calculated before cooking or after cooking? Is eating 20g of dry pasta and then cooking it how you should measure it, or should you measure the pasta after being boiled?

Your lifts are fine. Do more volume/accessory for bench and OHP tho. Most likely it was your bad programming that made you stall for 4 years. If you really want to look good, lose weight and do more hypertrophy, strength will come.

Face pulls, tricep extensions with a lot of reps to strengthen your joints. Maybe use it for pushups too.

Do I need to take arimdex or whatever if I'm just doing 250 test a week?

How do I eat less carbs? Between bread, pasta, rice and cereal there's almost nothing left of my diet

most food is before cooking, so measure before
eating food and then cooking it is not recommended

AYY LMAO

do you have any symptoms of high estro?

Thats an odd dose, I usually use it as I feel. general rule on 300mg is .5 every 3.5d

as a newbie should i bulk on 200-300 calories or 500 calories?
i lost 40 lbs in last 8 months and i don't know if i will gain that back by bulking at 500 calories.

try to gain around half a pound a week maximum
much more than that and it'll be an unnecessary amount of fat
adjust your surplus based on your rate of gaining

how much would you have to be able to deadlift to theoretically rip a typical man's arm off?

do as many as possible unassisted then do negatives

AYY LMAO

AYY LMAO

Do people count fats and carbs?
I only count calories and protein and I don't know if I should start counting fats and carbs?

Can i do light biceps work in rest days of SL 5x5?
Just some curls and dips, not working out makes me depressed as fuck

what's some cardio that 1: I can do by myself at a moments notice and 2: doesn't BORE ME OUT OF MY GODDAMN MIND

it's going to be an extremely high force needed if you just mean straight pulling - more than any human can produce with two arms
historically, even horses had problems doing this and some horses can pull 8000lbs, to give you some idea of where to start your deadlift training

go for it

I'm a fat 30yo boomer. BF 35%.
I managed to bring bwt from 200lb to 180 with running 3 miles a day and cutting down carbs.
My goal body is Mo Farah. Wat do Jow Forums ?

keep running and eat even less
maybe do a push up once in a while

thanks mate, appreciate it

13 year old sister complaining about low energy, doesn't do exercise outside of her PE class

Would lifting fix this, or should I just do some cardio with her? She's a bit overweight, but she's also 5'8 so it's not very noticable

What to do bros? I feel like the bar is just too low so when I grab it I cant straighten my back. Should I just put my hips lower? Any tips?

So basically unassisted. I've just looked into negative pull ups and I think they'll help. Thanks guys.

AYY LMAO

Don't listen to the other anons. One's a jew and wants you to go to a physio, he obviously doesn't care about your wallet. The other one gives you regular lifting exercises, which are very very very suboptimal for posture. His neck video is good though. You can find every posture defect in youtube, and do specific exercises for whatever your problem is. They shouldn't be deadlifts, shrugs, squats, or planks. They should be weird exercises that nobody in the gym does.

is keto as good as it looks on paper? besides the weight loss, the benefits it claims to have like increased focus, less need to sleep etc appeal.

I'm horribly fucking unbalanced from my years of working warehouse and one month being at the gym. DB bench is 55lb right 40lb left. What's the best (not easiest) way to get over this imbalance?

do whatever. Your options are romanian deadlifting it, which is a great exercise.
You could do deadlifts without dropping the weight. So arch your back, lift 20 kg or more and then do partial reps with straight back without going to the bottom.

You could also put the bar on something higher.

Do this while you are working on mobility so you are able to do the correct deadlift.

AYY LMAO

ayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyylmao

100% effort on both left and right arm on all exercises. Eventually left will catch up somewhat.
In the mean time, do extra volume for your left arm. If you do 5 sets do an extra set for the left arm on exercises where it's possible to do so.

My knee is occasionally locking on me or getting sharp (but not bad) pain when I kneel/squat. I personally think it's chronic bursitis or meniscitis.

If it is one of those things, how bad would it be to do regular 5-10km runs? I swear I'll go to the doctor one day.

Is GSLP a bad program? I read a couple posts that told some people who were struggling to make gains to not use that program. Was wondering what you guys think

It works, just like any other reasonable novice program works just fine.

God, I am thankful I don't have knee pain and don't do cardio.

Imagine having a Jow Forums body with a heart that fucks up by age 40.

I don't smoke man.

I've always skipped squats. Now I wanted do start doing them and can't go below parallel without a massive butt wink. How to I fix that? No matter how hard I try now to tilt my hip, it always does as soon as I go deep

Ayy lmao

Ayy Lmao

does your gym have a trap bar?
try that with the high handles

stretch hammstrings for a month to see slight improvement. Too lazy to go into detail

I do weighted dips and chins pretty much every workout because I love them and keep adding weight but I worry that it might be bad for my posture (my shoulders never hurt though).

What else should I do for balance? Been thinking about narrow bench and seated pulley row.

AYY LMAO
