Keto is not a meme. If you could switch to a full keto diet and maintain it you will see mad gains, However, maintaining a full keto diet longer than two weeks is one hell of a challenge.

Honestly, losing wait is as simple as counting calories.

You probably have a fucked up circadian rhythm. What you need to do is a schedule your sleep, always wake up at the same hour, no matter when you go to bed. Also only use your bed for sleeping and sex, so your body associates it with resting. Eventually you will fall asleep faster.

Sadly no, huebro

Proud of you brah. You're gonna make it

Why are all self improvement generals about workout? Why not just go to Jow Forums?

Need advice on fat loss.
I exercise 5 days per week. A mix of lifting and cardio. I managed to drop from 250lb to 190lb but have been stuck at it for 6 months. Nothing seems to work.

Riding as in horse riding?

diligence in my studies and a fit body
I want to climb and swim/do boxing more

obviously my addiction to weed

history of my nation aswell as some Greek classic

relearning some maths for a good start come next schoolyear

nothing. weed killed my motivation. my motivation is to regain my motivation. also my future 14 white children.

Every self-improvement thread is "go lift", it's fucking boring.

It's good to remember people to get in shape.

Check out jonathan kleck, you will learn more about the bible (and sort of sacred geometry and symbols)

That's a choice, not a must.

Outside of lifting:
>Completed a chemical engineering degree
>Got an engineering jobs
>Attained a good who I now live with
>Am working on a book and short stories
>Read one book per week

>Calcium
>Magnesium
>Vitamin K
>Apple Cidar Vinegar
>Iodized Salt

You're welcome.

It is a must if you want to be a role model, an inspiration for people around you. And if you want to be ready for any incoming conflicts.

hey guys, I'm now to sig right now I'm 200lbs 5"11 (~90kg and ~180cm for eurofags) I'm new to exercise but I work out at least three times a week. I'm looking to put off fat and put on muscle. Can sig recommend a diet that in conjunction with exercise help me with that?

eat less than you burn, you'll lose weight

Attached: 1488091812346.jpg (530x558, 202K)

Thats where youre wrong memflag. Just because you think its choice doesnt mean it is.

Eating more protein, less fat.
Calorie deficit to lose weight.
Working out 3 times a week to try to maintain muscle mass.
Other days I do VR Cardio (Maybe its a meme but its fun and it seems to work decently).
Went from 27% to 24% bodyfat in the last 4 weeks.

I'm on 1500 cal per day and nothing. I'm autistic about it too and weigh all my food for accurate calorie intake. Still nothing.

Getting rid of emasculation and low self esteem due to porn + social media.

It's really tough to be motivated to do anything when all you can think of after work after lifting or after whatever is how inferior you are. I know porn is fake and I definitely know most people on social media fake their shit but it's still a tough thing to recondition myself.

I am in debt. Wasting away as a NEET. Haven't worked in years. Have a degree but nobody wants to hire me. At least I'm not fat though. What do I do?

I don't care though.
Well it is a choice because I'm choosing not to exercise and get fit, idiot.

How much are you actually lifting/running per day and what are those 1500 cals consisting of?

If you're actually severely autistic about it and arent losing weight, id suggest go keto for a while and then begin bulk again

It's ok if you want to stay out of shape, but don't make people who want to improve themselves think it's ok to be fat/skinnyfat/a skelly.

Pro tip you can bathe with apple cidar vinegar to destroy parasites
If theyre really bad like mine are you can also bleach your hair for a more dramatic result

Try intermittent fasting 16/8 is a good start, once your body is ready try a 24 hour fast. It does wonders for your metabolism.

>Drinking a little less
>Growing bonsai tree

>VR Cardio
As in sitting at a desk with a VR set?

Do whatever you want, just don't tell me what to do.

go up to 1800 kcal.
I had the same problem and was a little too low. Sometimes going up in kcal a bit helps

Be less picky with jobs, try free qualification courses.

I use a heart rate monitor to determine my calories lost. I eat generally 1500 to 2000 and burn 500 to 600 not including he small amount I lose when lifting. I lift 3x per week. Doing 5x5 until I stall out. I have some definition when flexing but am holding belly and chest fat. I have been obese my entire life and now according to my BMI am on the low end of overweight. I tried keto once for 2 months and got down to 180 but 10lbs came back on as soon as I reintroduced carbs.

Hatred of SJW

Eat 3000+ calories per day and lift heavy. As a still somewhat fatty who was a massive fatty 3000 calories is easily achievable.

High carb diet+good exercise

Just fuck my life up. I was on an a good weight lifting plus intermittent fasting routine for two months. Went from 191 to 162 in that time. But then I got fucking tendinitis in my wrist and haven't been able to do any weightlifting and my weightless has stalled to a halt. I can only do cardio now and haven been to the gym in a month (I can run outside while it's still warm). I don't know what the fuck to do, I've been icing and heating my wrist along with keeping it in a splint but It won't heal and I can't afford to get a surgery for it. I lost all of my newbie gains.

I've been hitting the gym for a year but the last few weeks I don't go very often, sucks but my motivation is lowering for some reason. Maybe because I don't really see much difference because I don't really changed my diet apart from some small changes and I still drink way too much alcohol which is bad when trying to gain fast.

I'm investing and reading a lot to improve my knowledge in the financial world. It's fun and can help me in the future.

My girlfriend is diagnosed with MS and it sucks because I puts a lot of stress for our future plans. She's doing fine at the moment but you don't know what to expect.

Get a wife and you succeeded in the no fap for life challenge

find a girl you like and save up your cum for her. It will boost your T and you'll be able to ask her out.

>(((Metric)))

work on your core or legs, fag

forge a pay stub, lie about ur income, and get a private loan

Thank you for the quick replies! Are there some good carbs you can reccomend?

>Good habits you're trying to gain
Working out, meditation

Not really sure, be responsible I guess though languages I just love to learn them, they're pretty cool

Any advice would be appreciated. My brother is infertile so him and his wife cant have kids, but are always trying. He's really become depressed and just kinda sad. Developed OCD tendencies. Drinks a lot more. I dont know what to do anymore to help him. It's been a few years now and he's not taking any of my advice to get better. I know he knows he has to get right mentally and stop drinking but he never does it. He has shit will power and I'm starting to get frustrated with him. It's starting to take it's toll on me now because im constantly worried about him and want him to be happy, but now it's affecting my own life. So much of my days are wasted thinking about him and getting caught up in my own head on what else I can try on him. He obviously just doesn't care to help him self and if that's the case nobody else can help him. Unfortunately, I'm starting to realize I may have to take a long arm approach and try and comfort/help him from a distance because i've put off my own life for 2-3 years now. I haven't dated the whole time or changed careers like I wanted because im so mentally spent from him. Sorry for the word vomit. If anyone has any advice i'd love to hear it.

Rice, whole grains, whole bread.

You're in the same boat I was in when I dropped from 250->190. Basically I did IT (and still do 16/8), and a fuckload of cardio along with high rep low weight lifts. Once you get down to the teens in bf%, it takes a lot more discipline to lose weight because it's pure fat and not just water weight anymore.

I believe in you potato nigger, you just gotta believe.

Good habits I'm trying to gain:
like most autists I have bad anxiety attacks and horrid trust issues. In that regard I'm my own worst enemy.
I am trying to teach myself to stop overthinking and to learn to extend trust to those who deserve it.
All throughout August I worked out every day with support from my Twitter friends- and it made me feel better. I lost 7 kilos, I regained confidence and clarity and I got a new job because of increased confidence, so I will keep on going

bad habits i'm trying to quit: I'm a comfort eater. When shit gets bad I pack on the pounds.
The past year brought me a traumatic breakup( my ex literally had a nervous breakdown), moving to a foreign country, my mother passing away and I was attacked and thrown down a flight of stairs in Brussels and broke my foot.
So, gained like 20 kilos. I am working out, but I need to learn to not use food as comfort.

Currently reading: Asimov's Foundation Series

Currently Learning: Dutch. Also Java to improve my skills

What motivates me: I know the war is coming, and I want to be ready

No standing and playing stuff like Beat Saber
vrhealth.institute/vr-ratings/

what are some good routines.

Working on learning more about National-socialism and using it to improve my life and the world around me.
Trying to work out more and do better at my job.
Wanting to quit smoking and lie a lot less. Lying comes from my inner jew. Hate it.
Not currently reading anything, but just finished For my Legionaries. Not sure what to read next.
What motivates me the most is wanting my son to grow up and be a respectable man. I don't want him falling into degeneracy like I did growing up.

You're a private party. Can I get a loan from you? I am an aeroplane engine engineer and I just need 250,000 doll hairs to create my faster than light engine. I have a prototype here. Being that it is faster than light though, you can't see it.

Sit down with him and discuss it. Is it him or his wife that is infertile, and could impregnation be done medically?

C'mon leafbro, NL uses metric, the sky is blue, you know this.

Here's a picture of cute squirrels, in case you're having a tough day.

Eating better, mostly more vegetables. It works since I actually like greens.

Know I need to get shit done

Hanging situps are goat for muh abs

Is fishing a good hobby?

those are chipmunks :3

Thanks again! I'll start immediately

We use metric in Canada but nobody uses metric to measure their height or their weight.
We use kilometers for roads and even measure our common goods in grams and kilograms but everyone I know uses feet and inches and pounds for their body measurements.

almost 6 hours of lifting this week a new record
i've been lifting for almost a year now

You're welcome. Do a little bit of research by yourself, but that's pretty much it.

I actually had Alex Jones in my mind as I posted that lmao.

The problem is I can't get these thoughts of femdom, mommy fetishes and all these "strong independent and dominating" women on Instagram off my head. I'm able to keep my composure well outside but it's been a good while since I ACTUALLY felt like I could be able to take care of a woman's physical and sexual needs. I did when I was on NoFap (albeit I edged from time to time to normal lewd images which eventually caused my relapse) and it's just hard to do it when every board past Jow Forums has these fetishes so when I'm off work I can never truly get over it.

I think I need more hobbies than just work and lifting every other day.

I guess I have avoided talking to him directly because I dont want to make him feel worse and I dont want him to think ive given up on him. It's hi that's infertile. No sperm really at all so they cant impregnate her with IVF or any other way. She's accepted not having kids (unless adoption which he doesnt want) but he just cant get over it. I told him you never know if you keep trying it might happen one day but it also might not. Your gonna have to be ok with it either way. Lots of "infertile" people have gotten pregnant 10 years later in marriage by just having routine sex.

That's some serious improvement! Share tips, techniques?

Lift heavy weights MWF for 40 minutes, run a fast 3 miles TuThSa, do calisthenics every morning. Eat lots of meat, eggs, and green vegs. Don't smoke. Don't drink too much. Learn boxing and judo. Learn to shoot. READ REAL BOOKS! (history, political theory, statistics, how-to)

Thanks for these threads
I've been reading an book the last day called the book of pook. Halfway through it, post more plz. Other than will power what's a good way to nofap? Or prevent giving in. Other than sex I want to try the next 30 days and go for it. Raise my testosterone. All that. The androgynous part of the book was enlightening- realizing my bisexual ex turned lesbian was just that- androgynous or masculine. Realizing the base nature of the game. All that good stuff. Thanks anons

Thanks! Now I know more!

I've been working out for nearly three months now.. Went from 188 lbs to 176 lbs.. My body fat percentage dropped from 21.7 to 19. My biological age dropped from 38 to 32.

I am now able to do pull-ups for the first time in my life, and feel stronger and healthier than ever before.

I completely changed my diet, and no longer drink soft drinks (i.e. Coca Cola), and follow a strict calorie deficit. I eat vegetables every single day and only drink water as a thirst quencher.

Currently I'm trying to get rid of the following bad habbits:
1. Sleeping too much
2. Spending too much time at the computer
3. Not spending enough time with my son

I'm currently reading "The Culture of Critique".

Currently learning how to fight as part of a team (soldier stuff).

What motivates me? The fourteen words, and these three more:

Familien, Folket, Fedrelandet.

Take your son to hunt and fish.

How's the bonsai doing? I bought some seeds for my mom but they didn't sprout.

I plan on doing that once he gets a bit older. He is only 4 and I don't trust him with firearms just yet, even though he is old enough to come fishing.

Make your son a person you'd be proud of.

I actually have a GF and have sex 3 - 5 times a week. I'm a freak man.

>Learning: Dutch
Where the fuck are you from and what the fuck are you doing in my country.

Oh that's pretty cool. Cheers

I like the way you think, but I'll rather be the father my son would be proud of. Parents are usually biased towards their kids, so I will be proud of him regardless of what he does (even though I know I shouldn't).

I know you're meming but I know people who are like that and have no idea how they can live with themselves.

I get suicidal because I have a massive inferiority complex and constantly hate myself for being inferior to the men I've admired. I genuinely feel like a waste of space if I'm not the man my ancestors were.

Don't abuse your own life because of him

Can you get him to an AA meeting? Maybe take a video of him really drunk and shame him?

Can't you take him out somewhere and have a heart to heart?

You could always bring him on hikes with you first and bring your gun so he sees you as a role model and a guardian.
I remember traveling with my parents as a 4 year old
