/fit/ - Health and Fitness

Probably squatting 200+ lbs during my sophomore year of college, some guy came in while i was doing them and said i doing som srs squatz bro. since i had been a dyeleton all my life that was a huge compliment for me. i haven't gotten back to that weight since and it tears me apart

>>1954
>>1955
What's your current goals then? Mine currently is to be able to do a pull up while parallel with the floor. The idea was spawned from a webm of a guy pulling it off that I never saved.

>>1961
You mean the front lever row?

>>1962
That's it yeah, I didn't bother to look up the name.

I had the best mark in my class in high school when taking the Cooper test. I did around 16 laps around the field, the length of the field I can't recall.
I do remember the only other two lads around my mark had bullshitted about how many laps they did. They did around 1-2 less laps and the PE nigger didn't notice or give a damn.

op plz give update

>start couch 2 5k because i haven't done any cardio since the coof hit
>going ok, running 3 days a week around noon and lifting at night
>start feeling pain on the outer side of my knee at the mile mark today, 30 seconds later it shoot all the way to my hip on the outside of my leg and I have to limp out.

I guess that's what I get for not stretching/warming up enough. Ice packs are helping and I'm taking it easy but what the hell happened? Have any anons dealt with something like this?

probably trying to do way too much, you need to slowly work your way back into it. start with smaller distances at a lower speed then work up from there.

>>1890
Might have something to do with your shoes, too.

What is optimal cardio?

I'm trying to mess around with the Karvonen Formula.

Is 20 minutes per day in the average of 65% intensity sufficient?

You may want to look into low-weight/dumbbell exercises, like the strongman thread >>870.

Any updates OP?

>>1878
He posted this thread on frenschan and someone recommended he get surgery, last update he gave it seemed to have work.

>>1891
>He posted this thread on frenschan
Did OP really, or is it possible that more than one Nazi has a testicle problem? I'd imagine a National Socialist is the most likely to get testicle problems, since we're the only ones with fucking balls.

I have someone similar to old-balance guy, but not exactly. My major gym character is one that is unlike any other gym character I've seen online.

The "Beefcake"
>40 to 50-year-old woman, old enough to have a daughter.
>dressed out in tight-fitting black spandex, top and bottom.
>She told my dad "call me beefcake". I shit you not.
>Blond hair. hard body, everything about her would make a milf-hunter thirstier than a concrete brick...
>...Except her personality.
>She's very loud, almost yells out her movements like she subconsciously wants everyone to know where she is at all times.

>>1488
This is the post of all time.

>This is why I have banished underwear from my life.
How are you gonna catch your farts?

im fucking proud of u anon
we're all gonna do it bros

>>945
>are you looking like the Michelin tire man yet
no. 
>35kg isn't too much of an indicator for me.
yeah it's not a lot. i can actually do more but i was advised to stick to 35kg until i can do 50 to 70 presses without shitting myself. slow and easy wins the race anon
>>946
thanks man. i really appreciate your posts they've helped a ton. i just came back from gym i go back jogging. 6km how are you doing?

>>945
>How's your progress for for someone who doesn't do bench presses? 35kg isn't too much of an indicator for me.

I went to the gym for about two months and a half straight weighing just about as much as him and gained about 10 kg and could bench around 30 kg at my peak, so I figure his progress is about average for what you'd expect from most.

>Are you looking like the Michelin tire man yet?
No way, that's like 1+ year of constant exercise at least, he's not even ottermode yet. He probably just looks like a healthy not skeleton-yn not noodly armed person, who can flex a good looking chunk of meat on his gun.

So how you doing OP? any updates? 
I'm in a somewhat same boat as I'm roughly 130lbs and 6'1. I've been working out and eating what I can for around 4 years now, I got "decent" looking muscle here and there but overall I still look like a hungry skeleton. I've struggled with weight gain my whole life and I'm starting to think this most be related to some weird ass disease or who knows. 
As for my diet: I'm poor af and everything is fucking expensive here, at best I can afford for meat or chicken once a week sometimes less, I drink a milkshake with a banana and oats on the regular but to no avail

Still lifting OP?

Iced Earth is great for this, shame they broke up because of Schaeffer's Capitol shenanigans.

Wtf bros, this shit actually works, I actually became stronger.  I just did 4 clean dead hang chin ups. At the beginning of the year, I tried getting into bodyweight stuff but all I could do was 1 shitty kipped chin up, and I didn't want to do negatives because they were really rough on my joints and tendons, so I didn't pursue it any further. 
I'll continue tugging on my chain, but I might start throwing in some chin ups into my workouts as well, now that I can actually do them.

>>1743
Good to hear you found something that works for you, keep on lifting

>>1743
I'm happy for you! Keep us updated, I'm curious about the validity of these old systems.

>>1638
Not yet, but I am getting there

Anyone have other player ideas? I'm still open to suggestions.

Apparently you fags got mentioned over at the /icup/ board, so as long as you can come up with a team you can compete. Is there a team?
>>1675
>anyone has other player ideas?
What's the roster so far?

>>1728
Assuming it's still happening, yes, we would like to participate.

>>1729
It is happening but no date has been confirmed yet.
Any plans on updating anything about the team?

work it out as much as you can without hurting yourself, keep your protein intake up, work out the rest of your body so it doesn't get dragged down by one limb

noticed over the past few weeks or so that my range of mobility for bending has been fucked, lower back muscles are extremely tense and now I can't even touch my toes without exerting an absurd amount of effort and patience for my back to loosen up. standing up from a chair takes a few seconds for my lower back to get adjusted. i feel like an old fart. what are some ways to loosen up the lower back? will it simply fix itself with time? should i stop doing exercises for now that make use of the lower back, or at least do greatly reduced workloads with them?

this guy is the holy grail when it comes to physical therapy. has helped me through all of my injuries

>>1545
These two wrote the Becoming a Supple Leopard books.  I highly recommend it.

From personal experience, I find that doing nothing after an injury makes for a longer recovery.  I like to drop weight as much as possible, increase reps, and exercise the area more often.
