[jade fiber]

Gahdamn

Big man

[vital dragon]

Posting so thread doesn’t die

[silver swallow]

Keep getting the gains boys

Officially done 40lbs since April 4th

Down*

[onyx flint]

Wait how long does it take for a thread to die

[vital dragon]

3 days I think?

[onyx flint]

Oof

I switched from a 3day to a 4day split and I’m so glad I did lol

Just feels a lot more productive

[vital dragon]

Nice

I’m still at 0 day split

[onyx flint]

Since I switched programs I’m currently deloading for a few weeks before I get back to my original working weights when I finished my last program

I’m doing shorter rests now so I think the deload was def needed lol

It’s also nice because I can focus on form a bit more too

[vital dragon]

I never understood deloading

Do you just drop the weights for a predetermined timeframe or until u feel recovered or sth

[onyx flint]

Well my program calcs the starting weights based off your 5rms

So I just plonked those in and I’m just continuing the linear progression using those starting weights lol

[vital dragon]

Ahh gotcha

[onyx flint]

Yeah I believe the starting weight is like 70% of 5rm or something

[vital dragon]

It’s supposed to help with plateauing, right?

[onyx flint]

I could’ve prob done higher start weights since it’s less of a reset and more of just adding an extra lift day but I’m pretty glad I’m deloading esp since I was still a bit jet lagged early this week

Like the first few days I was lifting in Poland I was below my targets by quite a bit lol

Jet lag’s a bitch

Like basically it just so happened to align that my 16 week program ended when I came back home lol

[sharp kiln]

I got covid so yeah kind of an L for the gains lol

[onyx flint]

I got Covid in the middle of my first program cycle

Took two weeks off then got back into it with around 80% of my previous weights

Don’t push yourself too hard once you get back in the gym

[jade fiber]

legit same dude

why is this shitty disease still running rampant

[onyx flint]

You guys got this

[sharp kiln]

Damn

Yeah I think this is my 2nd time I got it

[jade fiber]

Actually man, that really sucks. I thought you’re much less likely to get it the second time

[sharp kiln]

And not even in a cool way like at a club or party or something, prob from work

[jade fiber]

For me I mainly have congestion and this shitty cough periodically

[sharp kiln]

Luckily this time it only lasted like 2 days but still really annoying :/

[sharp kiln]

Oh dang

[jade fiber]

Yea it’s always some dumb fucking way

Do u have symptoms?

I figure u do, but I mean to a lesser degree

[sharp kiln]

Not anymore, I’m pretty much back to normal. At the height of it which was like Sunday, I was in bed nearly all day so mostly fatigue and migraines and stuffy nose

Tylenol helped a lot

[jade fiber]

Yea true true

[sharp kiln]

Also my sense of smell isn’t great rn 🥲

[jade fiber]

Ohhh actually? I’m sure you’ll recover tho since ur vaccinated I imagine

[sharp kiln]

Yeah vaccinations + booster. Hopefully just temporary but yeah can’t smell stuff rn lol, kind of weird

[jade fiber]

Dude I never understood the smell one, Jesus that must be trash

Is it congestion in the nose or like u straight up can’t smell anything?

[night widget]

It's a straight up no smell

But congestion is not uncommon

[jade fiber]

Damn that’s fucked

[wide plume]

it just gets archived right

i dont think u cant send messages anymore

[jade fiber]

Ye

[night widget]

You can unarchive it at any tim anyways

I think I have this set for a week

[humble bolt]

what streak are you guys on

[vital dragon]

Streak 0

[sharp kiln]

0 🥲

I was on like an 8 day streak

Gonna get back into it though…eventually….

[night widget]

Waiting for paycheck, then gym pass here I come

If I can actually find where to sign up for it

[onyx flint]

Nothing quite hits the spot like a heavy deadlift that just makes you go full beast mode

[vital dragon]

We gonna get a red pill compilation of some motivational speaker talking in the background while u go beast mode on DL?

[night widget]

Nah, you need leetcode tutorial voice over while going ham on cardio bike

[languid lion]

My apartment has a squat rack but smallest plate is 15lb

Progressive overload with 30lb increases 👍

[onyx flint]

Honestly buy your 2.5-10 lb plates it really isn’t that expensive for the light ones

[languid lion]

Yeah for sure just thought it was funny

I'm lucky they have a real squat rack regardless

[humble bolt]

When Gigachad brings his own weights to the gym

[sharp kiln]

If I start lifting again it’s prob back to the 15 lb curls 🥲

I’ve gotten trash

[sharp kiln]

lmao

i went to the gym to make myself feel better, release endorphins, get out of depression

then got even more depressed cause I couldnt lift sht

its gonna be a painful few months I think

[vital dragon]

just gotta power through bro then you'll find satisfaction when you see progress

[sharp kiln]

covid really did a number on me lol

I feel more tired than usual and have this annoying cough if I talk, hope its not like long covid or something lmao

will just have to push through

[vital dragon]

yea nothing you can do about covid side effects bro

just gotta get right back on it

[humble bolt]

One of my coworkers has that

[sharp kiln]

its rough

I wish I at least got covid having fun at the club or something. what a lame way to get it, from work

[humble bolt]

Back on grind and no soreness

[teal phoenix]

damn 1000-1500 daily calorie deficit really begins to hit hard after a few days lol

[wide plume]

Why tf are you going that low

Per day

[jade fiber]

Bro I’m trynna get that in caloric surplus

[wide plume]

Ikr

I lost too much weight last month

Cuz of health issue

Our free lunch macros are fire for cutting

[jade fiber]

That’s tuff man, damn I even have less of a reason to be a shtick

[wide plume]

Wait hold up

Friday’s macros are not as good though

Buffalo chicken Mac and cheese

Yesterdays was good it was like arugula, bell pepper, grilled chicken with pesto

[teal phoenix]

turned out to be low electrolytes

drank a Gatorade Zero and I can runup the stairs again after squats

[teal phoenix]

https://tenor.com/view/ff7-cloud-strife-cloud-ff7ps1-squat-gif-25415816

thats our team gym

[humble bolt]

Is that roblox

[teal phoenix]

ff7

[onyx flint]

I just witnessed an absolute beast of a man just yeet a 110lb dumbbell like 4 feet in front of him towards the db rack after he finished tricep curls

Kinda scared rn

It actually hit the rack and fuckin shook

[jade fiber]

Match his energy by throwing a 120 lb dumbbell towards the rack

[onyx flint]

My arm might actually fuckin snap lmao

[humble bolt]

I hate when people do that

[onyx flint]

Same but I’m not about to tell this hulk of a man that

[teal phoenix]

I don't even think my adjustable dumbbells can do that high 💀

[night widget]

@vital dragon is blind ™

[vital dragon]

Toxic

[vital dragon]

It’s fine. I expect an employee from a dead company to be toxic

[onyx flint]

lum throwing smoke

[jade fiber]

When does he not throw smoke lmao

[wide plume]

When there’s no more money and ur on the losing side of the economy

[teal phoenix]

is there a way to effectively do leetcode, but also have a life?

[jade fiber]

Doing 1-2 a day really doesn’t do much to ur time

U could even squeeze smth like that into a workday

[teal phoenix]

but do you remember how to do them?

[jade fiber]

Well u gotta try to understand the concept and pattern

Gotta give enough time to engrain that

[teal phoenix]

ok.. lets switch to main thread

[humble bolt]

Damn, mans is getting like 10k worth of stocks first two years and flexing stability

[river isle]

How many leetcode problems do I need to do to bench two plates

[onyx flint]

Bench 1.95 plates

[teal phoenix]

thicc = thicker than a bowl of oatmeal

[teal phoenix]

of chicken curry and rice

[teal phoenix]

My body won't let me lose any more weight. Even with a heavy calorie deficit

I can see why people get frustrated and give up

[vital dragon]

Thanks for reminding me I need to workout today

[teal phoenix]

So yeah

[humble bolt]

Monday is the hardest day to go

That’s why I make it my hardest workout

Then I burn out

[vital dragon]

Active rest days tho

[teal phoenix]

are there douches that look at you and judge while you workout?

[teal phoenix]

same brrro

oh really? that's a no?

i always imagine some dude disrupting your workout to lecture loudly why you're doing shit wrong

i knew someone that was like that

[jade fiber]

They’re just jealous you bench 400

[teal phoenix]

more like 40

[teal phoenix]

if my hip flexors hurt.. should I do my squat pb?

[onyx flint]

Got a mad nice chest pump today after cable flies

Bro I’m not the only one lmao

I see like mad jacked dudes doing some weird variation and I really wanna ask why they do it that way

But at the same time nahhhh

[onyx flint]

I’ve had this happen but mainly by like old powerlifter dudes who are wayyyy past their prime lol

In those cases I genuinely was doing the form wrong tho

[humble bolt]

This place is cool

We’re safe from Kirb here

[onyx flint]

[vital dragon]

[vital dragon]

Goal is to be able to do L-sit -> handstand push-up by EOY

[onyx flint]

Holy shit those are some goated tasks

When human flag

[teal phoenix]

I workout 4 days a week.. but last week I ate fast food 4 days in a row 😢

[vital dragon]

After handstand push-up

[jade fiber]

[vital dragon]

Bruh I can barely do pseudo push-ups

[vital dragon]

Just gotta hop right back on the horse bro

[onyx flint]

What’s your progression up to L sit

[vital dragon]

This basically

[hot frost]

#fitness channel is out btw if u guys wanna converse on there now
Up to you

[jade fiber]

We’re gonna get censored by Kirb tho

[vital dragon]

Ily juda

[hot frost]

Ily too

[onyx flint]

Ok the fitness chat is a shitshow guys

Stay here

[wide plume]

I just opened it and it’s just you talking to special Ed kids

[onyx flint]

Legit lmao

[jade fiber]

cant ask a bunch of cs non-grass touchers to seriously have a fitness channel

[wide plume]

There are people who are cs non grass touchers that aren’t spastic

[onyx flint]

That kid who just breaks into a rap verse each reply lmao

[wide plume]

Lyrical genius

[onyx flint]

Kendrick 2.0

[wide plume]

It’s mad weird when they go into other servers like company ones to do the same thing

[onyx flint]

Lmao is he in BB

[wide plume]

I mean there’s mad people fitness so idk

[onyx flint]

Yeah but like normal fitness people

[wide plume]

But there were like three to four in our server

[onyx flint]

Not these kids

Honestly everyone I’ve met irl from bb seems quite normal

[wide plume]

They don’t work here

[onyx flint]

Granted my sample size is 2

[wide plume]

We just have lazy mod so no verification

[onyx flint]

Lmfaooo

[wide plume]

I’ve been saying to add it

But “we’re not gonna scale”

[onyx flint]

To be fair one of the zon servers straight up died when mods refused to verify

So 🤷‍♂️

[wide plume]

I mean whatever, quant discord got nuked twice

Once for non verification

And recently cuz someone got doxxed

With company secrets

They work in small shops so it’s mad obvious who is who but u got snitches

[onyx flint]

Wait are people seriously posting company stuff in an unverified server

Bruh

[wide plume]

in quant nah

u gotta be verified

but thing is u get company specifc roles and channels

[onyx flint]

Ohhh I thought you were talking about the bb server lmao

[wide plume]

ppl got carried away cuz they thought it was secure, except the server owner is the one who gets fuked cuz they obviously dont work at all these places but can see it all

[wide plume]

oh nah

most ppl in that server are clueless

about company policies, benefits, culture

im one of those ppl

theyre nice ppl, even the sped trolls gave up

[jade fiber]

Bulk or cut?

Since I’m bulking, I ain’t even keeping track lmfao

Just eat anything

Clean bulking is an option but I’m way too skinny rn to even consider it, already hard enough for me to eat

So just eat fkn McDonald’s, healthy meals with rice and chicken, desserts

Nah I have peanut butter shakes tho

Oh shit may need to try it

[wide plume]

cbr

but fr though office greek yogurt, turkey sticks, chic peas as snacks

on top of salmon with whatever

[jade fiber]

Y’all get free meals at BB?

[wide plume]

yeah lunch

[vital dragon]

Food

[wide plume]

its grab and go

its nice for the most part but sometimes the portion aint it

theyre jsut tryna cling to ideal macros

but then at that point why eat it if ur so concerned about macros for a single meal

ikr

its dope

plus it tastes good and low calories

its so sus i feel like theres a catch

ok but thats it

its not even that much

[teal phoenix]

kfc

[teal phoenix]

But no joke, I love how when I eat 1500 calorie deficit per day my weight doesn't change... But the moment I start eating junk it shows on the scale

[onyx flint]

#fitness talking about how they’re skipping leg day for an oa lol

SMH

[humble bolt]

I skipped yesterday to sleep

Should’ve went in the morning like always

[onyx flint]

That’s a normal person reason tho

[vital dragon]

Bro how much is ur maintenance

[teal phoenix]

3280

[vital dragon]

Why tf u eating 1500

Wait tf

3280?

[teal phoenix]

normally on a workout day I burn over 3000 calories

[vital dragon]

BMR bro

And how often is workout day

[teal phoenix]

4 days a week

[vital dragon]

Ok that’s fair then

So why tf u eating 1500

[teal phoenix]

lose weight

[vital dragon]

Bruh

That’s how u lose muscle

Max 500 below maintenance

[teal phoenix]

if you eat enough protein it can be mostly preserved

[vital dragon]

Otherwise u slow metabolism, lose muscle, and binge eat

[vital dragon]

Yea not how it works dude

If you’re in a 1500 calorie deficit

No amount of protein prevents muscle loss

[teal phoenix]

i had better results doing ~1000 calories deficit

[vital dragon]

As in 3k - 1k = 2k

Yeah so more than 1500

Clearly increasing calories gave u better results

[wide plume]

Bro make sure it somewhat sustainable

[vital dragon]

I stick to 300 below maintenance

[wide plume]

Cuz if you like oh yeah I stopped eating two days ago like bruh

[vital dragon]

That way i don’t binge eat and shit

[wide plume]

Ain’t no mr beast

[teal phoenix]

and yeah I wont go back into keto

[wide plume]

And he don’t look like cbum

[vital dragon]

Why would you do keto if u can’t sustain it

Just cook at home most of the time and substitute shit for lower cal alternatives

[teal phoenix]

wanted to do body recomp

[vital dragon]

Ez

[teal phoenix]

easy peasy

[vital dragon]

U can do that without a diet u can’t sustain

[vital dragon]

It is easy bro

[teal phoenix]

already do that shit

im thankful for companies that make pop wit no sugar

[vital dragon]

Yeah but u do that shit on 1500 cals and shit like keto

😭

[vital dragon]

I’m thankful for Kodiak cakes

[teal phoenix]

i will still buy low carb shit tho

[vital dragon]

I just made a fried chicken sandwich with their power flour

Was good

Light Mayo + keto buns + power flour + air fry

Ez 300 cals saved at least

[onyx flint]

Bro I can finally see my pecs a bit when lifting my arms up

Same lol

Well generally doing a shitload of walking means your calves are gonna be toned not thicc lol

for some reason all my genetics go to my quads lmao

I don’t even do any leg accessories lmao

Just squats

[wide plume]

Lumen where’s that picture

I need to see those genetics

[vital dragon]

What genetics bro

My calves are ass

[wide plume]

Nah the one Rob sent but we cropped out the reflection

[wide plume]

[jade fiber]

Probably who tf know what goes down in the chewsday bruv city

[teal phoenix]

I ended up burning 4000 calories today.

[vital dragon]

Tf

What do u do that burns 4k calories bro

[teal phoenix]

Didn't have enough electrolytes in my system so my body had to work harder during/after my workout

[vital dragon]

Tf kinda workouts you do

[teal phoenix]

i had to cut my workout short so I only did squat and bench press

[abstract frigate]

My Sunday long runs make me burn 4.5k

[wide plume]

That’s the thing it’s long so I can understand

A crap ton but still long

BTTS, not typing ur name lol, made it sound like it was fast af

[abstract frigate]

Workout day

I might skip it actually, I just came back from a cold

[abstract frigate]

Jk, I did a hill workout

It sucked ass lmfao

[humble bolt]

Literally?

[teal phoenix]

[humble bolt]

Best workouts to maintain broad shoulders?

[onyx flint]

Damn armhad asking for workout advice?

I’m a complete noob but I’d assume like face pulls def help

[jade fiber]

Shoulder press and prob lat pull downs

[humble bolt]

I do a lot of single arm dumbbell raises and of shoulder press

Shrugs too

[humble bolt]

Yep these are good too

[jade fiber]

Do we at yak into this channel lmao? He works out but he’s probs gonna be a goon

[onyx flint]

isnt lat pulldowns not really shoulders

[onyx flint]

do face pulls even do much for shoulders?

i thought they help for definition

[jade fiber]

It a lil shoulders but since he’s talking about shoulder mass the muscles underneath including back area are important

It all helps give the appearance of larger/wider shoulders

[onyx flint]

yeah i do lat pulldowns too but i was under the impression its mainly back

i guess back does help for boulder shoulders tho

[humble bolt]

But yea back to fitness stuff. Sleep is important for gains b

Gotta get those 16 hrs of sleep in

[abstract frigate]

Yeah I know. Mf woke me up at 1 am and I couldn’t sleep after that

Im going to bed at 8 today fuck it

[jade fiber]

Yes that’s why I’m gonna make sure he’s not catfishing

[humble bolt]

What he do

My first roommate was a raging gamer

[abstract frigate]

Put some movie full blast

[onyx flint]

did you tell him to turn it down

[humble bolt]

^

[abstract frigate]

Yup

[onyx flint]

ok yeah he's a dickhead

how'd you find this guy, fb?

[abstract frigate]

Yeah I’m just buying some earplugs

Yeah sadly

[humble bolt]

Throw his tv out the window

[abstract frigate]

Lmao I would get in so much trouble

[onyx flint]

or be more insidious

[vital dragon]

Bro ez solution

Find the fuse box

[onyx flint]

stab the speakers internally but make it look like its fine on the outside

[vital dragon]

Cut power to his room

[abstract frigate]

[vital dragon]

Remind me to never room with u rob

[onyx flint]

or just straight up remove the speakers lmao

[onyx flint]

lol i've yet to commit revenge on my roommates so dw

[abstract frigate]

I honestly don’t want to deal with a manchild so I’ll just buy some earplugs

[humble bolt]

You should deal with it

[onyx flint]

how old is this kid

[abstract frigate]

I mean I kinda already did

[abstract frigate]

28 i think?

[humble bolt]

It’s not hard to turn the tv down, I would make a stern point about it ngl

[onyx flint]

yeah dont be a pushover otherwise he's gonna start pushing your buttons in all sorts of ways

[vital dragon]

Be more assertive bro. Tell him it’s not cool and if he doesn’t listen, just be as obnoxious as he is

[abstract frigate]

I’ve been in that situation before and it just always ends bad for me

[onyx flint]

wait wtf is he complaining about YOU being too loud

[vital dragon]

Tf

[humble bolt]

Just don’t pay rent next month

[abstract frigate]

Yeah in the morning lmao

[onyx flint]

bro

[abstract frigate]

I mean I wake up at 6:30 and tip toe

[onyx flint]

you're being wayy too nice with this guy and need to be more straight up

he's taking advantage of your kindness imo

[vital dragon]

And talk in person

Don’t text

[humble bolt]

It’s probably soundproofing is shit in your building though. That’s one of the hardest things to test

[abstract frigate]

Bruh I was on my way to work that day. But yeah I’d rather have him tell me this shit up straight

[onyx flint]

yep soundproofing can be ass but if someone tells you to keep it down you should keep it down

[abstract frigate]

Like the mf waits until im@home and texts me

[vital dragon]

Lmao

[onyx flint]

like bro if he had a loud movie and you texted him, then 10 min later its still loud, i'd be knocking on his door at that point

[vital dragon]

But yeah bro. U need to have a stern conversation

[humble bolt]

I can intimidate him for you @abstract frigate

I just need 10% of your tc

[onyx flint]

i wouldn't automatically assume the worse tho, if the soundproofing is ass, maybe he did turn it down a lil

[abstract frigate]

I am barely alive and you want that shit?

[vital dragon]

Intimate with who

[onyx flint]

but you gotta be upfront and tell him its too loud

[abstract frigate]

The soundproof is ass

Like it could be worse. Mf has to go to the office so I don’t see him all day

[humble bolt]

[onyx flint]

yeah but sleep is important

i'm not really sensitive to sound but moreso light and i had a college roommate who always had a lamp on his desk that drove me fuckin insane

[vital dragon]

Still not cool that he’s being inconsiderate about your rules but expects u to keep it down when he’s asleep

[abstract frigate]

And this is where my social anxiety enters in. I’m scared of him making a fuzz about me

[onyx flint]

i put up with it for like a few days before i just had to bring it up

[humble bolt]

Tf is a fuzz

[abstract frigate]

Like I can’t afford to move right now

[vital dragon]

I have some fuzz

[abstract frigate]

Like accuse me with the landlord of me being a dickhead

[humble bolt]

How much you saving each month?

[abstract frigate]

It has happened before

[vital dragon]

Fuss

[abstract frigate]

Haha rn, nothing. I’m drowning in debt

[vital dragon]

Bro honestly

Just talk to him properly

And go from there

[onyx flint]

next time its loud, record it that way if the dude does try to make some shit up to the landlord if you confront him then you have proof

but yeah honestly just confront him mano a mano

[vital dragon]

If he’s still a dick, then do what rob said

[abstract frigate]

I’ve tried that before. And it just stress I kinda don’t want to deal with

I have enough with work

[vital dragon]

Kinda have to bro

[humble bolt]

Dead serious question, what exactly will the landlord do to fix the situation with proof?

[onyx flint]

your sanity will slowly tick away each night that he keeps you up

[vital dragon]

Because this is actually not sth u wanna put up with daily

[onyx flint]

i mean more so if the other dude accuses him of fake shit

[abstract frigate]

I mean I could just buy some earplugs and deal with it

[humble bolt]

Ah

[abstract frigate]

People rarely ever change

[onyx flint]

get a large rug that kinda helps

[abstract frigate]

Oh yeah im getting a rug for isolation

[humble bolt]

Buy a white noise machine. Loud enough and Rhythmic

[onyx flint]

like you said, it could always be worse

https://www.reddit.com/r/NYCapartments/comments/x5oxs2/advice_noise_from_bar_directly_beneath_unit_does/

mf ended up with an apartment directly on top a bar

[abstract frigate]

Like I appreciate everyone’s advices but I don’t think I’m in a situation where I can fight back tbh. I have so much to lose

[onyx flint]

that thread has a lot of soundproofing advice btw

could be worth a look

[abstract frigate]

Besides my lease ends in 6 months. And my sign on bonus drops on November

[vital dragon]

Don’t acoustic panels help

[humble bolt]

Your sign on isn’t immediate wtf

[abstract frigate]

Yup, these mfs don’t do immediate sign on

[humble bolt]

I promise the white noise machine will help btw

[abstract frigate]

It’s 90 days after start date

[onyx flint]

well at least its only 6 months

[abstract frigate]

Yeah that’s why I kinda played a passive role.

Last time i was direct with a roommate. The mf went on and accused me of disturbing his peace

All because I told him that doing laundry at 3 am isn’t right

[vital dragon]

Lmaoooo

What a dick

[abstract frigate]

“You can’t tell me what to do”

[vital dragon]

Yeah so he couldn’t tell u what to do then either

But anyways. Hope this current situation gets better for u dude

[abstract frigate]

It will don’t worry. I’m just gonna sorta ignore it and concentrate on my job.

I think I’m being way too hasty

Picked up two tickets and im drowning in stress

And I hate fucking JavaScript

[gray pagoda]

Based asf

[teal phoenix]

I got a staple lodged into my heel and it broke while I was taking it out

still hit a squat PB tho

[teal phoenix]

anyone still go jim?

[abstract frigate]

Nah i pivot more towards running. I enjoy it more

Todays run before work

[onyx flint]

It was push day today

[teal phoenix]

[onyx flint]

As in intensity?

[teal phoenix]

[onyx flint]

Oh lol bro I’ve been doing it for a week

Give me a month or two and I’ll get back to ya

I’m trying to eat more too

[teal phoenix]

when you first mentioned ppl I thought it meant 'people'

[abstract frigate]

What’s a good snack here in the Yu es of Ai

[onyx flint]

Eyyy we’re linked up

[abstract frigate]

All I eat is fruit

[onyx flint]

Ok you’re gonna need to clarify, for health or taste

[abstract frigate]

I burn around 4k or more calories a day. I can eat whatever I want. Anything goes

[onyx flint]

You more of a chips or cookies person

[abstract frigate]

why not both

[onyx flint]

Easy bro I gotchu

For chips get kettle chips, both cape cod and Hal’s are fire

For cookies it depends on if you prefer crispy or chewy

[abstract frigate]

I got muscle milk but it arrives tomorrow

[onyx flint]

Gooooold standard bro

Gotta get that gold standard

[abstract frigate]

huh?

like is that a brand?

[onyx flint]

Yeah gold standard protein powder

They have it on Amazon or at Costco

[abstract frigate]

Nearest costco is 40 miles away

so zon

thanks for the rec

[onyx flint]

Still didn’t answer me about the cookies tho lol

You prefer crispy or chewy

[abstract frigate]

oh lmao

I'm not picky about cookies. Anything goes

like when it comes to food

I eat everything

[onyx flint]

I just realized I’ve been asking crispy or crunchy lmfaooo

[onyx flint]

Oh that’s unfortunate I was gonna recommend the Costco chocolate chip/oatmeal raisin/macadamia variety pack lol

That shit is like crack

[humble bolt]

For cookies Oatmeal raisin. I ate oatmeal raisin cookies basically everyday for 5 years straight

[abstract frigate]

fuck

[onyx flint]

Go for the Keebler m&m cookies

[abstract frigate]

I got amazon fresh

[onyx flint]

Those also slap

[abstract frigate]

idk if that helps

[humble bolt]

In fact I’m eating them right now

[abstract frigate]

shit I should buy some

[abstract frigate]

I ate a whole box of apple cider donuts

[onyx flint]

Is there a Krispy Kreme near you

[abstract frigate]

good question lemme check

I haven't seen one

[humble bolt]

They keep closing them by me

[onyx flint]

Shiiiit

[humble bolt]

The opened one when I was 5, closed it and turned it to something else. 10 years later they moved back and it closed down again within a year

[abstract frigate]

@onyx flint

I'm le fucked

[humble bolt]

Boston is like Philly, just find some nice ass local donut shop on a cobblestone street lol

[onyx flint]

Local donut places slap sometimes

Ask around

[abstract frigate]

hmmm I really should

I just go to dunkin donuts and get a boston kreme

I've finally stabilized financially so I can kinda go out again

@humble bolt https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/967927256825610262/1019015088142815392/IMG_3648.jpg

[humble bolt]

I always sweat like crazy

[abstract frigate]

Jim tomorrow

@humble bolt what should I do?

Goal: speed pure running speed

Ayo

Fucking bet

[humble bolt]

You can do band workouts

And lunge workouts

[teal phoenix]

are you increasing acceleration or top speed

[humble bolt]

Weighted and not

[abstract frigate]

Top speed. I’m running a half a marathon in November

[humble bolt]

Have you tried running with a parachute lol

[abstract frigate]

I did like when I did football when I was 12

[teal phoenix]

ok so are we talking sprinting the last 100m? or speed for whole race?

[abstract frigate]

Whole race

your best bet is to run outside, no jim.

or treadmill

weights would actually hurt you in this case

[humble bolt]

No, heavy weights will hurt

That’s why I said resistance stuff. Do band workouts and lunge workouts

[abstract frigate]

Is there a coma after the No?

That’s better

[humble bolt]

Nazi

[abstract frigate]

Wtf

[humble bolt]

Grammar nazi 💀

[abstract frigate]

It could be interpreted in two ways

[humble bolt]

[abstract frigate]

Also wtf is a lunge workout @humble bolt

[teal phoenix]

I'm seriously thinking of taking a day off for working out tomorrow. Give my injured neck muscles time to heal

can barely shoulder check when driving it's so stiff

[humble bolt]

Weighted lunges w/ dumbbells by your side or plates overhead, single leg squats, high knee lifts

[abstract frigate]

Ty army

[onyx flint]

Did pull day today

Holy shit back pump is amazing

I really wanted to build chest but it really seems like back is most of what makes you look massive

[vital dragon]

My doms is better

Did a good leg day yesterday

[vital dragon]

Yeah. Goal is to not be able to fit through doorways

[onyx flint]

Like this guy https://youtube.com/c/BackGuy

[vital dragon]

Lmao the liver king vid on his channel is gold bro

[onyx flint]

Liver king is batshit insane I love it

[humble bolt]

I sometimes feel like if I lift heavy I’m going to turn into David from Edgerunners lol

[abstract frigate]

mid, think Jonathan Joestar instead

https://tenor.com/view/jojos-bizarre-adventure-jojo-jonathan-joestar-jjba-gif-20867163

[teal phoenix]

I did a bad thing

[abstract frigate]

@humble bolt

[humble bolt]

Apple Watch acquired

After gym gift

Also this gym has zero fucking fans

[abstract frigate]

Im gonna get a garmin when my sign ok drops

[humble bolt]

Interesting

[onyx flint]

Apple Watch workout timer is quite nice

[onyx flint]

I got one of those rubber cases/straps that makes my Apple Watch look like those $10 Casio watches

So I don’t really care about banging it up

[humble bolt]

I’m gonna use a hermes band

[onyx flint]

Lol I use one of these

Honestly I like the rugged look so that’s my daily case too lol

[vital dragon]

I need me an Apple Watch

[abstract frigate]

Get a garmin

I recommend the forerunner 55

[vital dragon]

But it’s not smart

[onyx flint]

Honestly I got my dad’s old 5 when he upgraded and it’s perfectly fine for my use

[vital dragon]

i want 7 tho

or whatever one @humble bolt has because he is my fitness role model

[abstract frigate]

I just want to fit in with the runners so I’ll get a nice garmin

[onyx flint]

I don’t get work notifications on my personal so my battery life is pretty good on the 5

Roughly 2 days

[vital dragon]

yeah but 7 has big screen and features

[onyx flint]

Really? It seems same size to me lol

My dad upgraded to the 7

[vital dragon]

idk. i haven't seen either in person so

i just go off of whatever apple propaganda i see

[onyx flint]

Lol

Wait for the new one that’s coming out

[vital dragon]

nah bro

series 8 only has crash detection

which idc about

[onyx flint]

Nah like the explorer edition

Hyper rugged

[vital dragon]

and im not fit enough for the ultra

i mean, i do basic stuff so idk.... would i even need rugged for that

[onyx flint]

Should my cable row be weaker, equal to or better than my lat pulldown

[onyx flint]

Same bro

Fav day

You alternate between rows and dl or do you do both

That’s pretty intense lol

Honestly ppl is already more volume than my prev program so I’m fine with my current one lol

I’m kinda doing like a beginner ppl

I’m also trying to keep my sessions like 60-80 min max lol

Yeah lol if you’re doing dl + rows lol

I’m assuming you do 5x5 dl too right

[vital dragon]

Better

My fav is leg day ngl

[old parrot]

My favorite day is arms

cause my arms look really inflated

[onyx flint]

Pull day ftw bro

[abstract frigate]

Long run day bois

[old parrot]

Leg day sucked today was just not in the right mindset

[jade fiber]

[onyx flint]

My leg day is tomorrow it always feels like ass

I just slog through it

[jade fiber]

Fuck legs no cap

Jk I should do legs I keep skipping

[humble bolt]

You’re gonna fuck up your proportions

[jade fiber]

Tru lol

[vital dragon]

I like leg day generally

It’s my favorite

Just wasn’t feeling it today

[onyx flint]

I’m all about pull day ngl

Altho my push day pump was pretty nice today

[vital dragon]

3 months to see proper progress, from what I’ve heard

[abstract frigate]

True. I now have cannons as legs

Did 6:15 on mile repeats

[abstract frigate]

At the gym

[teal phoenix]

you doing ppl as well? are you seeing results?

[onyx flint]

@simple kelp when you do bent over rows do you do it with back parallel to floor or at 45deg angle

Yeah it’s a lot harder to get setup in the parallel one

And usually I end up doing it at a 45 anyway lol

I feel like the most important thing is just not arching back right

[teal phoenix]

i do parallel

[abstract frigate]

@onyx flint what’s a good exercise for well defined shoulders

[onyx flint]

Lol I was asking this a few weeks back

Are you currently doing overhead press

[abstract frigate]

Is this a selfie?

[onyx flint]

overheads are good you can also do facepulls and lat raises

[austere yew]

Feeling big sad for pulling my hammie and not hitting the gym regularly the last 2 weeks

tomorrow
v_go_jim

I'm sticking to the basics
Stronglifts or SS
All the compounds alternate days 5X5
Only form no ego

[onyx flint]

Please don’t do starting strength

It’s super imbalanced with squats every session

[austere yew]

Yeah ik
I only do it once a week
Substitute it with some core and arms for the other

But I like powerlifts more than brosplits
So i fall into SS or SL with some add-ons

[onyx flint]

If you like powerlifting look into GZCL

[abstract frigate]

Jim only for myself

[onyx flint]

sounds like not a wlb issue but a you issue lol

when did you get up

10-8 is like 9-7 yeah thats a bit rough

where are you working again

damn fintech has that bad wlb

what is keeping you at work, is it just a lot of tasks

i see

[onyx flint]

good shit bro, never skip a day

[abstract frigate]

Fax. I’ve been either working out or running every single day now

The endorphins are addictive

[vital dragon]

Me thinking about skipping today

[abstract frigate]

Don’t

[onyx flint]

Don’t

[vital dragon]

My shoulder hurts tho

[abstract frigate]

From soreness or actual muscle injury?

[vital dragon]

Because of the concussion thing, since my neck was bent at a weird angle, after that the muscles around it, including my shoulders, became tight af. That’s what physical therapy is supposed to help me with

So recently they’ve gotten tighter

[abstract frigate]

Excuse me? What concussion

[vital dragon]

Last year

[abstract frigate]

Get well soon pupperino

[vital dragon]

A lot better actually just muscle tension that needs to be fixed now

[austere yew]

thanks for this btw
Realized i was doing something like this subconsciously but the overloading + failure mechanics are pretty pog

just need to go2jim

[onyx flint]

Yeah I was on GZCL for a full cycle but the second cycle I gave up and switched to a diff program because the T2 deadlift / squats were BRUTAL

For the first cycle tho it was great

But man 3x10 deadlifts/squats with heavier weight are absolute ass

[austere yew]

Yeah 3x10 at 210 sounds insane
idk how I can pull it off

imma keep it low and see how it goes for 6 weeks and see where im at

[onyx flint]

Start off your starter weights really low trust me

[austere yew]

ye

[onyx flint]

Also I’d recommend the Boostcamp app

It’s great for gzclp

[austere yew]

ah ok

I have a custom workout tracker app i've built
Figured i get that setup

but ill check it out

[abstract frigate]

Is 25lb per dumbbell, dumbbell shoulder press weak af?

[onyx flint]

No

[onyx flint]

Shoulder press is quite slow to progress

[abstract frigate]

I just don’t want to look like a stick

[abstract frigate]

Not today. I haven’t taken a day off since last Monday

[onyx flint]

yessir i went this morning

leg day

[teal phoenix]

same bro.. I've been out for 2 weeks

the neck stretches arent helping either

BULLETIN FOR JIM HOMIES: Listen to your body! If it hurts, stop! Or you go physio.

[abstract frigate]

Should I go Jim or 6-7 miles

[onyx flint]

You need a balance of both

Which is hypocritical for me to say since I currently don’t do any cardio lol

But yeah ideally you wanna balance both out

[abstract frigate]

I currently just go Jim once a week and 30-40 miles a week

[onyx flint]

You need at least 3 gym sessions a week imo

[abstract frigate]

It’s hard to do Jim, running AND work without feeling miserable

[onyx flint]

Run less lol

Do like 10-20 miles instead

[abstract frigate]

I do 13 on sundays

Im addicted to endorphins at this point

When I don’t run I feel miserable

[onyx flint]

That’s another option, run on weekends, gym on weekdays

[onyx flint]

That’s how I feel with the gym lol, I haven’t missed a gym day in so long if do I feel like shit

[abstract frigate]

Idk why but I just can’t get enough satisfaction from the Jim

[onyx flint]

Do you have a program?

[abstract frigate]

5x5

But idk why. It’s not the same high

[toxic marsh]

PAIN IS WEAKNESS LEAVING YOUR BODY, KEEP PUSHING THROUGH

[old parrot]

Jim’s very good at satisfying

[abstract frigate]

Well yeah and so is true for almost anything in life.

That’s debatable. It takes years to be able to run fast 😉

Ah so we just have different perspectives on what satisfaction entails

[languid lion]

Jim mayhaps not for everyone ur obviously being healthy regardless just depends how much u care to be a large unit

I assume u can find a workout plan that focuses on improving at running which maybe better compliments ur goals and gain weight in process regardless

I basically do that but for climbing ^

[abstract frigate]

I run to escape the dread of existence

Yo bois

When I go jim and do triceps

Am I supposed to feel it in my shoulders as well?

Or is it just a result of poor form?

[humble bolt]

What are you trying to do

I mean you’ll feel two spots if it’s hitting more than one muscle or something

[vital dragon]

Like tricep push downs, for example

With that rope thing

[humble bolt]

I can see you feeling it if you’re not used to the motion

[vital dragon]

I’m not

But idk if it’s my form or if it’s supposed to be like that

Like I try to keep my shoulders pulled back

[onyx flint]

I feel it solely in triceps

Are you doing pushdown with rope or bar

[vital dragon]

Rope

[onyx flint]

Interesting, are you keeping your core tight

[vital dragon]

Yes

At least, I try to
