Sweat-time, sweetie

4x5 front squats @ 225 with an AMRAP for the 5th set. I got 8 reps and now my weight is going up 1.5% next week. I'm doing Layne Norton's PH3 program, highly recommend it for anybody wanting to run a power building cycle. Still getting used to the volume; I was working out 3x a week and this program calls for 5x a week. Still making good gains tho, just finished week 3.

Also I should have mentioned, I switched in front squats for back squats. I'm really trying to build up my quads more than my max squat right now and it's been going pretty well.

>>94308
Usually something that helps. I assume you had a forward lean or something?

>>94310
A while ago when I was still doing low bar but I switched to high bar and more or less corrected it. Really I'm wanting to deadlift 500 and I feel that front squats compliment that more than back squats. Speaking of, had my rep test yesterday:
Front squat: 7x235
Bench: 6x230
Deadlift: 10x380
I just finished the first phase of the program and I'm feeling like I've already made some good gains.

Greens pinch far less plus using a blue the pressure coming out is too high causing some soreness, with a green it's a nice gentle flow.

>>94311
almost took this seriously

Sugar doesn't matter at all unless you're diabetic. The only thing that matters is calories.

>>93328
this is only correct on some levels, and wrong on others. for a beginner avoiding sugar is one of the lowest hanging fruit

Eat less. However it much take a month to notice the change..

>>93281
I stopped eating hi carb stuff and fuck me, my new jeans arnt anywhere as near as tight as they were a month a go. Do this!

>>94304
if thats an easy way for you to achieve a caloric deficit, then by all means queer

>>94180
gotta start somewhere.. You can either stay at home bitching about it or get to the gym. I was really anxious about going for the first time but after the first session I wanted to go back ASAP. Also I find y workouts are a lot better at the gym than at home, i.e. I have more stamina and endurance, not sure why that is. Maybe because other people are there so you feel you have to give it your best

>>94204
Home workouts suck because you don't get the mandatory, "Well I'm here so better make the best of it." that a gym forces. Homes have shitty air circulation in small rooms which makes them suck balls to work out in. And you can postpone home workouts too because it is at your literal doorstep.

Also, just go OP. That is the hardest part. Just get in your car and drive to the place. Once you've done that, the rest will all fall into place.

>Basic beginner boxing:

Focus on actual training over everything else. If you take it up try to get in 3 sessions per week. Boxing is as much skill as playing pool. Everything else for a beginner is the finishing touch. You're sessions will likely involve a calisthenics/cardio warm up, so 3xweek in the boxing gym for 1-2 hours is all you need early on.

>diet

Don't be fat or 'overfat' (i.e. keep your waist under 36 inches).

>work outs

Focus on your three sessions per week and then add these (to be a better boxer) in order: 1) shadow boxing, 3x2min, throughout the week. 2) Footwork skills. 3) Roadwork, 20min jogs or 1 mile times runs would be very good for a beginner.

>What role does weight lifting play

Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.

Box like you want to win

At different times during my life, I did:

Tae Kwon Do
Fencing
Jujitsu
Some form of Krav Maga/militarized martial art
MMA

The MMA gym I went to knew their shit. The leader guy believed that a combination of boxing/wrestling style with muay thai/jujitsu backgroud (for the meta) would make a champions combination.

I lasted about a month of every day training before I opted out. I got 3 injuries training there, got hit in the face, slammed, choked, kicked (though not hard since I basically mastered spacing in tae kwon do), and had pretty much all my major joints twisted in some way or another including my spine. Still can't figure out how to do a spine twister like that.

Anyways, call me a puss, but I don't like getting the shit kicked out of me. I mean, I wasn't being a bitch about it, and I was dishing out as much as I was getting. Plus I was surprisingly awesome at jujitsu for someone with no ground game (strength training and a sharp mind gave me an edge). But to the point:

>guy posts lookism shit
>obsessed with Physical beauty
>lots of pseudoscience and "I believe"

Then you tell him to grow up because of keto.

I this 2 days ago and my sides returned from orbit 30 seconds ago. You are a god amongst men.

This is quite a severe case of body dysmorphia, imagine you get so obsessed over physical beauty you start linking /pol/ threads.

>>94237

'Keto' is effectively a meme sold by snake-oil salesman and/or those completely ignorant of nutrition science. Pick up a textbook on nutrition and you'll either be forced to readdress your belief or double down on delusion.

Keto is a diet medicine prescribes to epileptic kids, which has no value in health and or BBing outside of short term water weight loss. In terms of BBing it's completely counter to gaining muscle, which you would understand instantly if you picked up a medical textbook rather than garnering your knowledge from forums.

>>94295
ketosis is when your body is depleted of glucose, and your body needs glucose to thrive, recover and allow for basic functions. Your body can turn fat into carbohydrates (glucose) through ketosis, which requires a lot of energy

It does not make you lose more weight than a simple caloric deficit. It does not give you more energy. It does not give you anything other than insulin sensitivity (because your body is starved for carbohydrates). You lose water weight because your body uses water to bind to glycogen to store itself in your muscles and other tissues.

Carbohydrates play such a vital role in recovery, performance that to deplete yourself of them for simply losing weight is short sided and useless.

If you want weight loss, eat at a caloric deficit.

Holy crap, awesome.

Find your BMR without activity and then look up average calories per exercise and add it up

the way you should do it though, is just pick one and do it.
If you gain, eat less. If you lose more than 2lbs in a week, eat more. if nothing changes, eat slightly less

can you do starting strength at home? what would i need to buy and can you recommend any equipment? pls help i want to get fit but i'm not going to the gym with agoraphobia.

and what do you think of push pull legs?

>>94284
Crowds make me extremely anxious and irritable.

You can still use the gym if you're agoraphobic, just go at quiet times. Early morning is good. Monday is probably the best day off because everyone starts their week on Monday and then they spread out. Plus there's always people who say "I'll do 3 this week" and then miss the 2nd and then "I'll try again on Monday".

If you don't work or work weird hours most of the day is quiet.

I've used the gym at all hours. I have a couple of friends who go in at early hours for those reasons. One is legit crazy around people and he would just go in at 6am. I'm assuming you can handle a couple of people. Hell outside Monday half the time I go to the gym there's less than 5 other people in and I only go very slightly outside peak (6-7pm) times.

>>94285
I think pull push legs is great if pull has deadlifts

otherwise, if you have more time and passion you can make faster progress in other ways

>>94279
Riding a bike is always good. I like to use a single speed, personally. Riding in a city is stressful, but is also kind of fun because you can see so many things, and it's great for no emission transportation. I rode my bike all around Baltimore when I lived there, and it was awesome (minus the absurd amount of potholes, flipped over the handlebars several times [wear a helmet my guy])

>>94279
Not cardio but it'll help.

Lifting? Or body weight stuff? You should still run a bit but building some muscle will help you run harder anyway.

Swimming is also a good option. Less damaging to your joints. If you're paying for a membership you can abuse the shit out of it.

Fucking worked out for the first time in a long time. And while it wasn't super long I'm feeling it. Going to be increasing duration daily till I start to hit at least an hour. Working on getting myself back to trim. The blood rush and endorphins have got me feeling pretty good honestly.

BUMPIN

Wasn't able to hit the gym for 2 weeks due to work, but I managed some time this morning

Keep it up

The hardest part of having weightlifting a part of your lifestyle is when you need to rest extra and you just want to kill it in the gym.

>>94241
Do you even lift?
