/fit/ - Fitness, Health, and Feels

Call me a fuccboi, but rather than lifting with 1-2 minutes of rest between a sets I lift in a circuit / CrossFit style to shorten workout times and to have cardio come as a by-product of eating ass and lifting fast

>>149862

I do a variation of HIIT in the lap pool on non-lifting days. My current regimen is as follows:

>8 lengths at about 50% intensity to warm up

<Interval 1 - repeat 4 times

>1 length at 100%

>1 length at 60%

<Interval 2 - repeat 3 times

>2 lengths at 100%

>1 length at 60%

<Interval 3 - repeat 2 times

>4 lengths at 100%

>2 lengths at 60%

>Walk the length of the pool until you've recovered

>Do it again

I look silly doing this next to people doing endurance training but idgaf. I have adjusted this plan to correspond to my fitness level. You might need to do more or less. That said, when properly adjusted to your fitness level, I don't think there's a better way to do HIIT training (or any cardio exercise for that manner) than in the lap pool. High-intensity swimming is so much better than doing intense polymetric / CrossFit dumbfuckery and injuring yourself.

I have a treadmill desk, so I walk at least 5 miles a day. I play vidya and watch movies at the same time as I walk

>>149862

Outdoor running, usually variations of jogging and sprinting, and when im inside the gym its always an intense 15 mins HIIT on the bicycle after lifting.

>>149862

If the weather's nice, biking. I have a 4-mile route around my neighborhood that has lots of hills and such. I bike it for time. If I'm going really full-steam on highest gear, I can do it in about 23 minutes (I'm on a cheapo heavy-ass mountain bike, for context). Doing this daily is the only I have ever had visible abs in my life.

If I'm in the gym: walking on a treadmill at about 2.8-3.0 mph, on an incline of at least 10-12. Even just ten minutes of this shit will make you sweat. I've done it for 30-45 minutes a few times and looked like I just took a shower. Doesn't sound like much but it's great and doesn't involve pounding your joints like running does.

Ask a doctor

dont run or you risk having your knee amputated

If I don't drink any water in a day my pee is still between yellow and near clear every time. What's the deal?

>>149783

I always drink water to look younger and fresh

>>149783

Coconut Juice more effective for cleansing toxic

Can't see how

>>149667

Each day 10 sets ( or as many as you can) for 1 or 2 mucle groups would be a better idea. The goal is to "break" the muscle during one training, not slighty tiring it every day.

>He fell for the Keto meme

Anon, you should know better than following meme diets,silly!

You're onto something. Keep at it.

Avoiding machines is generally good advice, but they have their uses. 30 reps is an awful lot, and you'll likely hit a plateau really quickly. Don't be afraid to lift heavier sooner, just remember to listen to your body and don't sacrifice form for more weight. Work on your mobility and make sure to warm up before your working sets.

You're going to make it!

>>148987

I just use hooktube.com or invidio.us to browse youtube without the extra bloat shit and I watch gym bros or workout thots teach me how to do exercise at home with zero equipment. no shitty gym membership that I will skip.

>>148987

Preventing injuries:

Stretching before (and after, if you can make yourself) seriously helps a LOT. It might seem like a waste of time but trust me lads. Especially if I'm about to do some heavy leg stuff….. stretch hamstrings, adductors, glutes, quads (which will also all stretch your lower back) and you'll be a lot less prone to injury. Stretching your abs and serratus muscles are good, too.

As far as increasing weight - I feel like I am ready to move up when what once was my upper limit starts to become very doable. I then do maybe a half-set with something only five or ten pounds heavier. If I've been doing sets of 10, just try 5 of something a little heavier. See how it goes. If it's going good, continue those 5 into a set of 10. Maybe do another set if you feel like it's going well. If it's really damn hard, just do 5 and say "cool, I did five of something heavier!" Gradual is key. There is no rush.

Furthermore why the FUCK are you bumping your thread on a SLOW board after NOT EVEN TWENTY GODDAMN MINUTES FUCKING KYS.

>>149599

lmao he is either retarded or underage

>>149946

Why not both?

>>149489

That's really not an impressive physique. Builtfat with a little more fat than built, and no definition. Although his wrists look stable, so I'd say he has potential.

Still, sage for furry thread.

>>149490

No. this is literally expressed toxicity in the personality of that person. If you just lift weights you're also a dumbass. form without function is retarded and vapid. just like a furfags attempts at being different

>>149539

he looks like a manlet pretending to not only be tall, but strong. He appears balding, and he has his arm in an unnatural flexing position making him look like his muscles are bigger. This is not a man with potential.

>>149489

what the fuck, furries have gone too far

>>149489

Furries sure are pretty fucked alright

>>146702

don't avoid carbs. avoid BAD carbs.

you want high complex carb like oats and dark red kidney beans and black beans, chia seeds, flax if it doesn't bother you in an instant knee jerk reaction because "MUH ESTROGEN" meanwhile you chug pregnant cow titty milk.

and avoid all simple carbs like bread and pasta and flour. proccessed shit = avoid.

>>148228

leafy greens aren't a fucking carb, and atkins south beach paleo are all the same scam

>>148228

avoid alcohol and beer too

>>148785

There are loads of exercises you can do at home with zero equipment. use invidio.us or hooktube.com to view youtube without the bloat and just follow some nice fun workout guides with total bro-tier trainer bros or workout-thots teaching you how to kick ass without even paying a penny for a membership to a gym we're all gonna fucking skip anyway.

>>149767

don't walk to the gym, it's not healthy breathing in car fumes. you can easily count over 400 cars passing you buy in even a short walk depending on your area.

>>149775

no smart phones either. only plebs need devices to tell time. God put the sun and the moon up there for reasons you plebs. sun straight up = 12pm. use the hand/space method to tell hours away from straight up and you got your time.

>>149892

Good advice. Remember, the best routine is the one you stick to.

>>149898

mm hmm

do planks and sit ups on elevated backless chairs so you can arch back deeper.

do bicycle situps.

eat very little carbs. Instant abs

I would have abs but I keep getting kicked out of gyms for shitting in the shower.

I used to feel a bit disappointed with the leg raise progression from convict conditioning so I started doing some planks, and I feel it's made for a stronger core of mine. Do planks, try some leg raises or crunches.

You won't get really defined abs until you're at a low body fat % though which means somewhat advanced dieting. Personally I'm more than happy with a stone slab for a gut but I can see the appeal of washboards. Best of luck anon.
