Newfag here, I've been attempting to do this but am stuck on day 1 of week 4 after starting on week 3. What am I doing wrong?

I have a Weiider machine from baaaaack in the day that I used to use. But then I nearly killed a nigger and went to prison instead of university. Long story but it was a must. In prison there were no weights or anything really so I just did pushups and this and that using my own body weight (forgot the name for that) pretty much so I wouldn't become sick. Can I make gains with this thing? I'm seeking good health not any great appearance. Or do I need free weights? If so, what should I buy? I was thinking I'd like a chin up bar. Alright, thank you.

greetings and salutations, /fit/izens i'm thin as fuck 55kg (120 lbs) and i'm manlet 177cm (5'8). i have a few dumbbells at home. how do i start building muscle and getting fit? i'm so fucking weak and i just can't stand it. my hands are very thin and it's starting to make me look like a fag. i need to know that if push goes to shove i'll be able to defend myself. seriously help. i think i need: >exercise plan >diet plan (im neet so no 20 euro salads) >people to watch/read >whatever else i don't know THANK YOU ANONS

What have you been watchan and playan? What do you recommend? I've been watching Fist of the North Star and playing Yakuza.

Discuss things that aren't workouts or exercise per se, but help you to improve your performance as well as maintain /fit/ness and motivation. For example: >meditation >wim hof method >supplements >prayer >onions >nofap >abstinence in general >study and inspirational reading Things to not discuss: <roids, drugs and other gay shit Personally I stopped using warm water in my showers, all my showers have been 100% cold for the last 3 months. I've had a huge uptick in energy levels since I started doing this, and I also feel more solid, like my body has become more dense. The reason I decided to do this is related to an observation I made a few years ago. I was visiting family and had my cat with me, and even though it was the beginning of winter, he had to stay in a shed outside because of their dog. Now, he was normally 7.5 pounds, but after a few weeks in that shed, he was 14 pounds. The reason I weighed him was because he was noticeably bigger, and suddenly had muscle definition, it blew my mind that he just about doubled his weight. Interestingly, he went right back to his old weight after he started living inside again. It reminded me of something called "Bergmann’s rule" which is basically an observation that species adapted to cold environments tend to be bigger. Anyway, a couple years later I learned about Wim Hof, which really activated my almonds about a few things, not least of which was my cat turning into a chad in the cold. It might be worth noting that he was unfixed. I think if I keep my cold showers up over the winter I'll see some real progress. Otherwise, I'm on day 7 nofap (29 days is my personal best), and today is day one of a 7 day "mind fast". I won't be playing any games, watching TV, reading anything other than the Bible, or using the internet (with the exception of /fit/, my email and 4 astrology sites, I've already got my tabs up and they won't be changing them for that time). I'm just going to focus on training and meditation. What are you doing to improve yourself /fit/?

You haven't been touching that soda now, are you? Drink your water, now! Keep your posture straight, keep straightening your back every few minutes because you keep slouching forward. Most importantly get up every half an hour, take a walk, stretch your butt and look outside to unfuck your eyes. Stop ordering crap everyday and make your own meals. Cooking good food is easy and cheap. See pic related, that's the basic foods you need to be healthy. There are many more techniques like keto and shit that you probably don't even need to be healthy. And keep that calories in check.

I think I injured my rotator cuff. What exercises are safe to do until it heals and how long will it take to heal completely? I don't think it's torn but it still hurts every now and then, seemingly at random. I just started getting big pecs and biceps; I don't want to lose them already. pic unrelated

WTF happened did the animators not understand forearms are meant to be parallel with the cable?

That horse face made another one of his yearly comics.

Are artificial sweeteners bad for your health? And to be more concise, by that I don't mean stuff like Aspartame being bad for teeth, I mean endocrinology bad Personally, I frecuently take coffee, and sometimes soda, before or immediately after a workout. One of the main points of the detractors of artificial sweeteners is that they raise hunger levels and fools your body into expecting a rush of insulin which may lead to Diabetes type 2. TL;DR: Do artificial sweeteners raise hunger levels and increase insulin resistance potentially leading to Diabetes?

So, long story short, I want some advice on planning my exercise routine on Wii Fit U. Pretty much what I have been doing is spending the first hour, every morning doing 10 minutes of "aerobics" (Usually playing a regular Wii game that requires motion controls), then 20-30 minutes of actual exercising (In Wii Fit U), then another 10-20 minutes of "aerobics" (Again, in a regular Wii game). Reason I've followed this routine is because one of the fitness instructors at the gym I used to go to recommended it as the "best" way to get a workout. Another thing they recommended is that I don't do the same exercises every day, otherwise my body starts building an endurance against those specific exercises. So, the routine I've been following for the past few months is just selecting randoms exercises in WFU, five days a week, with Satudays spent going hiking/jogging for an hour (Plan on increasing that time as the days get warmer). Outside of that, I currently work at a fabrication facility, so I spend most of my days walking and lifting (Though, it looks like I'll be let go within the next few weeks). <So, here is my dilemma, what exercises routines would be best recommended in order for me to receive the most benefits? As far as my body's circumstance, I'm currently 5'11", average around 205 lbs. The only real "goal" that I have is that I want to reduce my waist size. Outside of that, I just want to build up the rest of my body, especially when it feels like I spend too much time building up my legs because of everything else I do (Apparently I average around 8000-10,000 steps each day). Also, I only have the chance to set up two routines because the first slot is already filled with activities that do not require the Fit board because, in the past, it seems to become very finicky whenever I change the batteries and it refused to connect or turn on. So, what are your recommendations?

George Floyd Do you figure this barbell placement is approximately the position of the "neck" that Chauvin's tibial tuberosity was on?

Feels that don't deserve their own thread. >wanted to punch stuff >got a punching bag recently >started watching boxing videos plus some fighting anime >bought hand wraps and learned how to apply them >practiced stance and shadow-boxing >doing bretty gud and it's fun >throw punch at some point >fucked my hand up >it's not broken but hurts like hell No punching for a while I guess.

Is your physique just for your own ego or is it actually put to use? What sports do you train for? Hopefully not the kind people buy expensive tat for and drink while watching.
