I haven't been straight on my lifting game, pastor Gainsvil. I'm slipping, I am realizing that yes, I lifted for vanity. No one to see me lift, makes me not want to lift.

This pandemic has put me on the straight path. I shall do fitness, for fitness.

Reminds me when Jerma tried to make a bit where this jock comes up to you and it's playing fart and screaming from his earphones while he's trying to role-play as the jock talking to you

Fucking said it, brother.

Nothing better than having a good pack.

Share how you started lifting, fellow kings.

Used to be a chubby little fucker I was, always looked at magazines and saw fucking gigachads and other perfect body types. Never really had self-confidence either and wouldn't dare approach lasses since I knew they wouldn't be attracted to some chump.

One day said fuck it, contacted one of my pals who has a coach and started getting into it, no brakes. Dieting, lifting and running (alongside physical work from parameidc'ing alone) got me fit and
still lacking self-confidence ayyyy lmaooo

Nothing better than being comfortable going to the beach now though (before covid) and have a great six-paxk and just not having a fat fuckin tummy that bulged out

was never fat or stick thin, just average. started lifting around 2 and a half years ago after my friend harassed me to come along and said i'd love it. went to this pretty shoddy gym to start with, bad equipment and all that stuff. a few months in I started getting serious and realised it wasn't going to cut it, so I moved to a new gym and it's been great since. I just love all of it mayne, the milestones, the pump, the health benefits, the looks, everything. i could never go back to a non gym lifestyle again, and it's gonna help me out a lot when I'm old

Was 60 kg when I volunteered for national service and it sucked in the first month but I got gains pretty quickly and saw improvements rapidly because we exercised so much doing day to day stuff and as a result ate so much as well

Didn't really feel like exercising either because it was doing anything but it. But wearing the gear, rucksacks etc just naturally worked out muscles because of the weight and intensity of what we were doing

Ended the 4 months having gained 10 kg and I have no idea how it is possible to this day. I guess that experience just reinvigorated how I felt about exercise/working out. Last time I exercised was taking the bike 6km total to and from school and when I swam in my spare time, but nowhere near this level.

Going one punch man to reach the toned goal. I'm at 72kg right now and trying to get to 75kg before summer, but all I need to work is my stomach, chest and my arms considering I got god tier thighs and calfs from work itself

reached my plank max, which was 4 minutes straight and my 1 set max for pushups, being 42 reps

175cm 72kg for reference

I decided to start ice-skating in 2017 and moved to ice hockey shortly afterwards. that season I went from 65 kg to 71 kg in a few months of on-ice training alone. I took up some running before that to improve my stamina on-ice

One competitive season later I was still at the same level of strength and conditioning, only having improved my on-ice performance. I went from 71 kg to 75 kg that season, still without strength training

This season I had to stop because of university and dorms. Decided to go to my uni's gym hall for strength training and conditioning so that I could make a really good comeback in hockey

Finally, this semester, I decided to shift my focus more towards to 800m training while keeping strength training around. I didn't want my previous training scheme to tighten me up

I hope the combination of strength training and amount of lactate threshold work will help me out a lot of I ever get the chance to play again

all went to shit bc of the lockdown, so atm I'm almost exclusively base-building. trying to hit 70 km/week post-lockdown so that I can make a really good off-season training plan for june-october

as long as you keep your muscles working at home you won't lose your gains, muscle memory my dudes. your one rep maxes might have gone down a lil bit by the time gyms reopen but it'll be a blip on the radar in the long run

Pro tip for rowing if you own no weight/ pull up bar

Inverted rows
What you need

• A door
• A blanket cover

Do a knot in the middle of the blanket and place it at the top of the door. Make sure it is precise.
Then close the door and grip both sides. Even out the grip if you must

Execute the workout by inching your feet forward, then going backwards on the spot while holding the blanket

Pull yourself towards the door and repeat.

been having awful pain while running in my feet the past few days. anyone have any ideas? can't block it mentally and I definitely do not want to get injured. i've been completely fine the past 3 weeks with the same volume and schedule

stinging feeling, around the arch of my feet and opposite side of my ankles and around the talus

Tried stretching out/warming up and down after/before running?

massage can also help against pain both before and after any physical activity

Hi, I need some help with am exercise I'm doing. Following the guidelines of the book "You are your own gym" (I think that's the English name) and it goes well so far. But there's one exercise called the "reversed bench press" (literal translation out of German) which I just can't manage to get done.

Is there any bodyweight exercise out there which is a good alternative? Or are there any relatively cheap tools to get it done better? Thanks :)
