| Posted: 31 Dec 2020 09:12 PM PST Moved to a new city and know no one, want to finally join a gym (didn't in the past because of money, confidence, laziness, etc), but again I don't have anyone to go with. Do people do squats and bench and other stuff without a spotter? Also, I haven't been to a gym in 9 years. How do I figure out how to use most of the machines? Hire a personal trainer for like 2 weeks? [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 31 Dec 2020 05:23 PM PST Hi y'all: New Years resolution is to work on my flexibility and (hopefully) get to the point where I can do a front split on the floor. For reference, I'm a pretty fit female (above 30). I'm not terrible with flexibility, but I've never been able to do the front split. I've never tried or trained consistently for it. Can someone give me a good routine that would help with this? How long do you think it would take me be able to do a full front split? Thanks [link] [comments] |

| Posted: 01 Jan 2021 02:38 AM PST So a bit of background about me. I am 5'10 and weigh 79kg. My lifts are: Squat (85kg) 3x5, Bench (52.5kg) 3x5, Deadlift (85kg) 3x5. When I started lifting I had pretty much 0 Muscles and im gonna guess around 20-25% body fat. I was a typical skinny fat dude. I have been lifting 5/6 days a week with pretty much a full BB/DB/Cable setup for just over 1 month. During this time i have also been bulking and in 2 months i've put on 9kg - which ofcourse is very visable.. mostly around my guy and front. Ideally I want to have an athletic build. So not huge or bulky like a powerlifter or body builder but still visable kind of 'Jacked' in a shirt. I'd also love to have visable abs so a low body fat % is essential as well. Is a bulk really neccessary to achieve the kind of body that I am after? Surely not every person with an athletic/muscular build has had to bulk and then cut to acchieve that body. MOST advice on reddit will tell you that if you are not bulking you simply will not increase in size, with the exception of newbie gains. So I suppose there may be an upper limit of potential growth that the body can reach without a surplus of calories. For example, if you take the body of a gymnast. These guys are ripped to shreds and look phenomenal. I just cant imagine them ever going through bulking stages to get like that, but ofcourse they have most likely been training since they were very young, so they're at an advantage there. Anyone here been able to achieve an athletic build without a bulking/cutting?? [link] [comments] |

Nevermind that it's the most inaccurate method available, (read: most likely way wrong - see here) you're still just putting an arbitrary number to the body you have. Despite people's claim that they are shooting for a number, they're really shooting for look - like a six pack. So let's stopping mucking around with trivialities and get to the heart of the matter. This thread shall serve two purposes:

| Best dumbbell weight for a beginner? Non-adjustable just free weight. Posted: 01 Jan 2021 01:46 AM PST Hi all, I am looking to begin weight training and want to start with at-home exercises using dumbbells. My question is: what weight can I begin at? I cannot afford resale prices for adjustable dumbbells like powerblocks and would prefer to start with dumbbells at a set weight. [link] [comments] |
