one day i hope to read a post by drunk driver dad itt that is not about how some part of him is broken, inshallah

hopefully from now on it will only be PR's being broken. My strength gains seemed to have stopped in bench press since I cut out some calories. I may be losing weight too fast, I think I've gone from 204 to 193 in the last 3 weeksish? maybe 4

I think my gym is slowly dying. They used to have everything in a moderately well sized room, but moved the free weight stuff into a smaller room downstairs. I actually liked this, because it meant less middle aged men curling an empty bar in the squat rack or old people whining about music being played/noise created by padded plates hitting the rubber mat. I've usually spent all my time here, but recently started going to the big room to do abs, stretch etc. It used to be full at the times I go, but recently it's been completely empty or max 2-3 people. My only reason to go here is because it's a 5 minute walk from my home, but I guess someone else would take over if the current owner failed.

I have a cold and haven't left the house, so no cardio. Should I drop my calories a few hundred calories today, or eat at maintenance anyway? :/

And how many calories of salami?

I wish lifting weights would go back to the way it was 6 years ago when it was a niche interest that only no life autists took part in. Those were the days.

As a proud no life autist I'm really starting to enjoy lifting and tracking EVERYTHING.

I have this and it works perfectly fine. I'm sure it'd hold up longer if I wasn't constantly dragging it in and out of position since I don't have the space to keep it set up all the time in my garage.

gently caress paying for a gym membership and having to commute to/from one. I don't have to deal with people giving me dirty looks for eating salami between sets.

Same here. Mine's in place on horse stall mats in the garage so I can work out while free-balling with no fucks given.

I also smells like literal Hell - loving sulfur. I remember giving that in the ER to idiot 14 year old girls who tried to OD on tylenol. They got the option of drinking it down or I'd put a tube down their throat and pour it down that way.

Just move to the north eastern US. It's a super niche interest here right now. Most of the local gyms have closed down and everything. There's just lovely chains like planet fitness.

Probably because most people just have home gyms. I know people in $850/mo 3br apartments who have power racks up on the third loving floor of a building constructed in the 1920s.

Here in Alberta going to the gym is basically all there is to do outside of our 3 month summer if you're not a skiier or bar star. The last few years i've seen a HUGE spike in fuckwits doing ~*cOnTeSt PrEp*~ poo poo and trying to become instagram stars. The uni gym that I've lifted at for 7ish years used to be a ghost town and now it is just loving slammed year round. I blame the explosion of social media for it mostly. For a couple years there it seemed everyone had a """""pro card"""" to some lovely fed. Glad that trend is dying off tbh.

For a serious answer the best I have tried recently is Ritual. Good buzz and mental energy, but I'm Canadian and our powder availability is garbage. In the US you can get way better poo poo like Cannibal Ferox or JP8X Hardcore which will gently caress your poo poo right up. Noted idiot and powder thread overlord Krustster swears by JP8X.

Well that's just preworkout stuff, which is mainly caffeine and beta-alanin and L-arginin. It'll make you hyped the first time you take it (unless you're already caffeine resistant due to drinking coffee) but most preworkouts will stop giving you much benefits after a while as you build up resistance to the stuff

Arginine is super outdated and isn't in anything anymore. The new PUMP MAGNIFIER is Agmatine Sulfate and it is some real rear end poo poo.

I've never really trusted anything sold in a health & fitness store, so instead I order semi-legal ECA (ephedrine, caffeine, and asprin) capsules from internet diet stores, they're pretty much the gold standard in doing two-hour wide-eyed caveman workouts

Otoh I think it's more difficult to get those in the US because ephedrine is considered a precursor to crystal meth, so I guess that's another tick in the box for becoming a healthy and rounded individual by taking up physical culture
