This thread is for advice on improving your physical, mental, and social fitness.
General life advice is tolerated, but please attach a fitness question to prevent this thread being deleted like its predecessor. This should make the thread count as on topic(hope this pleases the jannies).
looking forward to the incoming cringe
are there any additional sources similiar like in the Jow Forums sticky regarding fitness?
A compiled good source with all basics.

I'm so socially awkward is annoying.
I know what I should say but I just drop my spaghetti.
my face often flares up whenever I'm literally around any girl my age, could be some goblin whore and I still go red in the face.
Has anyone got advice?
>get crap grades in a levels
>ohshiite
>uni of choice rejects my initial offer
>but
>they offer the same course but with a foundation year and I have to start in September
>this will make my uni course 6 years long
Oh well. Got in anyway, and starting in September means I don’t have the gap year to develop hobbies but it means I meet new people sooner and don’t have to risk a gap year without friends.
Just cause things don’t look good at first doesn’t mean they won’t be. Can’t wait to go and meet the flat mates. Wish me luck.
Plus it’s a new campus, and apparently it’s got a cracking gym. Going to look at it on Wednesday.
Idk if it’ll work for you but I try and think of a chad I know and emulate their mannerisms. I once drunkenly spilled my autistic self-doubts to a mate at a party and he literally said “mate everyone thinks you’re the ballsiest, most confident lad in the group where the fuck is this coming from?”
get a tan
Good luck user.
self improvement is cope
Cute, I wonder if they're boyfriends.
>implying the white demigod on the left would settle for the horse faced turbomanlet with bitch tits
My mental and social fitness has been really lacking lately and it's starting to affect my joy from physical gainz.
It doesn't help I got a promotion that puts me on night shift which is a disaster zone that I'm not expected to turn around.
Needs an OP still. Bring back /sig/ OP and put basic fitness routines and food tips in the OP text.
Let's extend /sig/ stuff to more fitness stuff like info on swimming, running, cycling which we recommended anyway.
pic related was my issue
after some thinking time i recalled what my life was in the past and what changed
night shift, good luck user
anyone has an answer to this? ->
pic related is totally accurate. The only real things that make me feel good atm is going for long drives to see the outdoors, bonding with my wife when she's not in Karen-mode, and going to the gym.
I don't really have much I'm passionate for and I don't really get to do much of the few things I'm passionate about.
I want to feel that light and alive again.
Ever since I got Jow Forums my physical health finally improved. Then slowly my confidence and mental health did too.
I'm 22 years old and finally had a girl show interest in me. Unfortunately she's 17... which is a minor in my state. All I have done with her is kiss her neck and lips. We also talked about having sex once she turns 18. Is any of this illegal? Am I screwed?
I'm having such a hard time lifting and doing anything now because I'm so stressed out about the idea of committing a crime. I was so happy to finally receive attention that I ignored the fact she was 17.
Cuck a gap year before college. We don’t even have that shit in America. Do your time and get school done and then jerk off afterwards. You don’t have to get a job right after you finish school, especially if you have $0 debt. Plus when your traveling you’ll meet all kinds of people. Many of them may open up opportunities for you, especially if you already have a degree.
Definitely 100% wait until she is 18. Especially with all the bull shit going on these days it’s just not worth it. Imagine when you break up or something happens “he raped me when I was 17!! I didn’t know what I was doing I was a minor!!” Type of shit. Just be safe.
Anyone have good resources relating to yoga ?
is greek yogurt+ honey + almonds a fit breakfast/snack?
Why does Gym-maxxed Chad have a skinny neck?
idk where to ask this but, im 25% body fat should i go for gains or cut, im a newbie btw, also how does my routine sound
A
3x5 squats
3x5 bench press
3x5 dead lift
2x8 barbell curls
B
3x5 overhead press
3x5 barbell rows
2x5+ pullups
anything that i should add? im retarded and i also only have a squat rack cage thing + barbell
I would cut. Routine looks all right for beginner but I would probably change it after some months
Routine looks good.
You could alternate barbell curls with tricep dips.
Don't call yourself retarded.
yes, based
if you are not trying to lose bodyfat you can still add some oats for carbs and energy
only meditation
check out "body recomposition"
a slighlty calorie deficite to lose bodyfat but still build muscles and strength
since you already work out at home, you may have the time to throw in some 3x12 reps for hypertrophy muscle grow
appreciate the advice, and im only jokingly calling myself retarded, im not insecure, just dont know shit really
switch squats or DL to B. Day A is too much volume compared to day B. Add more sets to all your lifts. You're missing out on ez beginner gains with low volume.
how big of a difference is there in incline and regular bench? should i be doing both on the same day, i dont have a dip rack
Incline works your upper chest muscles, decline works lower chest. Yes do they both on the same day.
>I dont have a dip rack
you don't need a yoga mat to do yoga, improvise.
Kinda significant.
It helps to do one barbell and the other with dumbbells on chest day.
Though tbqh I do most of my lower chest work with cables now but that's because I'm focused heavily on trying to beat genetics and get popping pecs.
How do I unfuck my mind for mental gains?
>Heart is constantly beating fast, right after I wake up until I go to bed
>Have woken up exhausted for years no matter how much sleep I get
>Constant state of tension, constantly paranoid about situations breaking out that I'll have to be on guard for
>No curiosity, can't find it in myself to genuinely care about anything at all, can't get absorbed into anything like I used to
>Want to enjoy books, games etc like I used to but can't enjoy them, somewhere at the back of my mind there's a voice saying this isn't a good use of my time
>Tend to assume the worst of everyone due to tinder and other bullshit
>Just turned 22, no job and hence no income
>Living with parents due to this, constantly beating myself up about having no financial independence
>Even in high school and university I was like this, when everyone else was way more chilled out
>Fractured spine, asthma and other bullshit mean that I'm constantly thinking about what's good and not good for me when moving around
>Constantly trying to correct posture as it will relieve back pain, but I haven't gotten any sense of accomplishment from finally relieving the pressure on my back either
>Have to consciously reign in smirking/tiny laughs when in serious situations because the most autistic shit comes into my head
There's just so much shit wrong with my head I don't know where to start, what the hell can I do?
Even though some American states have those "romeo juliet" laws or whatever they're called (if age is close it's alright if one is under 18), wait until 18 just to be absolutely fucking sure. Good luck with her.
Start with the Greeks. Unironically. It might help you in some way, though it takes time to really grasp your head around it all and for it to get into your bones.
better safe than sorry, wait until she is 18
until then raise her properly to be good wife and mother (if she hasn't been railed by ten guys already before she met you)
>Is any of this illegal?
yes, pretty much any form of romantic interaction with a minor is "corruption of a minor", saying "we'll bang when you're 18" is a crime.
it's retarded and no, you wont be prosecuted for it, but yes, it is technically illegal if the cops really want to go after you over nothing
Chads don’t care about necks

I will keep an eye out and if I end up seeing something I will mention it, but the sticky and wiki are still the best condensed resources I’ve seen

Practice talking to girls, you will eventually adjust.

both the guys look so fucking terrible in this image what the fuck kind of muscle anatomy is this?
Britfag here. You don't need a yerar to develop hobbies as going to uni gets you access to trying so much different shit it's unreal. So many clubs and shit to do and everyonen is always nice about it.
I never went to uni and I regret it, although I do have the added benefit of getting a decent wage and not being in debt, but uni in itself is a huge social opportunity.
The original is a shitty blackpill image that was clearly lowest effort possible. Focus was not on art, but on making as many people feel bad about themselves as possible.
Yeah it was drawn by a skelly incel who had no idea what muscles look like, just that it was pointless to try because Chad
