I got to the end of dinner and was still hungry, so I just ate something I would normally eat for second breakfast and will only eat one breakfast tomorrow. I think that was the right call as I now feel much better.

I weigh 155ish, 67" tall (down at 154 the past few days). 1.25x body weight is okay by me. Would I like to get to 1.5x body weight? Sure, but I'd rather spend the extra time practicing karate instead of getting even rustier than I already am while piling on a little more bulk. E: I'm kinda proud of my deadlift, at 325. But that's partially because my legs are proportionally kinda long for my height. Rodenthar Drothman fucked around with this message at 00:00 on Apr 12, 2016 |

Here's the secret to not getting big and bulky: don't eat so much. Why would you not want to get stronger at the same bodyweight if you are a karate master?

Rodenthar Drothman posted:First, that ^ That's a decent BW:Bench press ratio so props. If your method of doing plyometrics in between bench press sets seems to be working for you, that's all that matters. Chances are good that you'd make similar progress with a protocol that's a little bit more.......conventional. But whatever, lifting is supposed to be fun. As far as what you described, was it like how this girl lifts? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bxAc97K2I5M If so that's just a powerlifting technique used to pervert the definition of a bench press to maximize poundage. By exaggerating their arch, they can minimize the ROM--kinda like using a really wide grip. Probably more leg drive n stability too, but shortening the ROM is the main advantage. Stuff like this is just one of the many reasons competitive powerlifting is retarded, but who cares

You can't see her feet in that but based on where she anchors herself and then moves down I'd say that it's similar, though they don't arch their backs that much. They seemed to maybe arch just a little more than normal - it was the foot placement that really drew my eyes. And yeah, I'm sure I could find other ways to get better / stronger (it's not like I do this specific super set / pairing / whatever all the time, I switch things up and try to get a variety in. I hate things getting stale) but this works and I feel it for a few days after. Dum Cumpster posted:Here's the secret to not getting big and bulky: don't eat so much. Lol I am not a karate master. Been doing it a long time, but will probably never be a master. Just a dude who practices karate. Also, it's not that I actively don't want to be strong. It's a matter of time and motivation. With the time I have I have to weigh what I want to do and do it. If i could spend the time and do both? Yeah I would, as I said I would like to be able to bench 230. But, meh, I work a lot and have other hobbies too.

I am a fat alcoholic looking to un-fat.I have quit drinking (Thursday will be 2 months) and I've acquired a power rack, a bench, and an olympic weight set. Now I suppose I have to start picking the heavy things up then putting them down. I have terrible flexibility and my muscles are incredibly tight, especially around my hips/glutes. I've injured my self (hip flexors?) early into any squat-heavy programs I've tried in the past. Also, I can't overhead press (low roof) unless there's a sitting variant. I'm 6'2" 250lbs (down from 270+) and I want to be all swole like you studs rather than just skinnyfat as this weight comes off. Tell me what to do because I am a big dummy who can't think for himself.
