Ab crunches too, and maybe order a kettle bell or adjustable dumbbells.
I do have one of those cheap yoga mats at home.
Chin ups, push-ups and ab crunches every second day sounds good? I just don't think I can bring myself to do 10 different exercises. I spent the last two days in my bed and only stood up for the kitchen or toilet.
>last two days in bed except food or shitter
That has to change or you will not make it, dog.
honestly even if you feel like you can't do 10 exercises once you start seeing results you will want to do more, just start and stay consistent the rest will come. If the drinking is getting in the way just save it fro after working out so you have to earn it, this conditions yoru reward path in a negative way but if it helps you cut down from just drinking for no reason then it's a positive outcome and will maybe lead to you not doing it at all in the futurel.
yes, also whats your poison?
With poison you mean alcohol? I guess whiskey. I'm not a connoisseur or anything though.
I know man, it's really bad. I have an appointment with a psychotherapist and psychiatrist next month for my mental illnesses, gotta hold out until then and hope she can help me. Until then I try to increase my self-worth with trying to get fit. But thanks for the concern.
Let me save you some time and money, no woman is ever gonna give you good advice and they're never gonna help you, they want your money and will make it so that it takes 20 sessions just to get to know you and listen to your problems I'm giving this advice to your for free because you have the potential to be the preson you wanna be and if I can help you in some way then great but a therapist is just gonna blame your parents and say you had a shit childhood and possibly put you on some ssri that will make you even more of an empty soulless moron than being a drunk. You know what steps you need to take to improve your life that's why you're here just make small goals towards it and once you start getting some wins it'll motivate you to be better and do more.
Try using some punctuation marks next time. Its really hard to read your text schizo
oh I'm sorry did you not understand what I'm saying, do I need to spell it out for you on this himayalan yak raising forum get fricked if you caught the gist of what I'm saying then that's all that's important. I'm not writing a thesis I'm just speaking the truth.
He did.
>Let me save you some time and money, no woman is ever gonna give you good advice and they're never gonna help you
I know. I specifically requested a male shrink. But our psychotherapy situation is sooooo fricked up in Germany, you will be lucky if you find someone 50km away who has an appointment for you in 8 months. I just took the only thing I can. At least I don't have to pay for it, because my doctor said I am so fricked up my health insurance has to pay everything. I have no hope the b***h is going to help, but I am willing to try.
>You know what steps you need to take to improve your life that's why you're here just make small goals towards it and once you start getting some wins it'll motivate you to be better and do more.
Thank you, this is my hope too. I even ordered a safety razor and moisturizing cream to make my car crash face look a bit better, like you said, I am doing small things but then I drink for 3 days straight and lie in bed for two more, so it's hard.
Every man endures trials that make him into someone strong and capable, I feel like that's what the essence of "making it" is. Someday you might be the best version of yourself but until then we struggle against our lesser self, if you ever do start making progress make sure to let us know we got your back even if we do make fun of you and make snide comments everyone here wants you to succeed just because we understand that desire to be more than what we are now.
I am skinny fat and women break their necks to see who's coming.
>women kill themselves when they see me
Sounds about right
That's just fat anon. Not skinny fat.
If you're skinny then you have an advantage as any muscle you build will be visible right away, unlike with fat people.
You should still aim to eat more, specially protein. You can try to keep track of calories/protein intake at least for a few days so you understand your own eating habits.
What you're looking at (excercises with bodyweight only) is called calisthenics. Here's an example of a very simple routine: https://www.reddit.com/r/bodyweightfitness/wiki/minroutine/
Baby steps, anon. You got this.
Yes. I'm someone who did it. Well I'm far from *done* but I think my escape from skinnyfat mode is shaping up nicely.
Pic related is just
>pull-ups
>chin-ups
>dips
for 9 months. I'll be Brad Pitt one day bros.
don't skip leg exercises
not only they will make you look more balanced, they will also progressively overload calisthenics because you will be heavier
It's a good tip overall and thanks - but my legs are p good - I've been skate- and longboarding for the last 5-6 years, used to run 10-15km for years before that, and I also walk a lot.
I've been neglecting my upper body so I'll continue to focus on it for now.
Of course.
Now get to it, anon!
Yeah, you can go ottermode like that.
Especially if you eventually add a little weight to the pushups (like wearing a backpack), and find a way to do lateral raises (even if that's just done unilaterally holding the backpack).
If you've used the term ottermode you probably know this but you'll have to be lean for it to look good.
Forgot to say but add some bodyweight squats in there too.
OP, Give me one breakfast meal that has 30grams of protein, about 70-90g carbs, and contains either some fruit and some vegetable.
Overnight oats with whey and some yoghurt/quark. Crush a banana and mix it in or frozen blueberries. Pinch of salt and a bunch of cinnamon. Also yeah you can make good gains with just pullups+pushups, I did it a few times a week during the pandemic. You'll make no gains if you keep boozing tho
not op
If you want to look good lose weight fatass. It's all about the face.
My face is literally 2/10, it is incredibly detrimental to my life. I try to bring it up to 3/10 with losing weight, shaving and moisturizing, even though I know it's just gonna be like polishing a turd
>I know it's just gonna be like polishing a turd
So why even bother lifting? You'll look like the gymmaxxed incel from the meme
Women don't care about muscles it's all about face + height + low body fat
>So why even bother lifting?
I hope to increase my confidence and feel better about myself. Yeah I'm still gonna be ugly, but there is still a difference between ugly and skinnyfat or ugly and kinda nice body
>Women don't care about muscles it's all about face + height + low body fat
I never mentioned women, why do you think I care about their opinion or do this for them? I do this so when I look into the mirror I can say "At least I made the best with the dogshit genetics given to me"
if you have shit genetics anyway, why not focus on a strength/talent and try to derive confidence from that? could write books or make marble statues or something. getting good at something you also enjoy is extremely fulfilling in this way.
You cant say the n word here sweety
Quit the alcohol. Any sort of exercise before you do that is a waste of time. Alcohol doesn't only poison you while you're wasted and on a hangover, most importantly it slowly poisons your mind and ruins anything worthwhile in your life. You cannot build a life (or a physique) while drinking.
Just don't touch any booze ever again. It will be the best decision of your life. I quit 18 months ago and I cannot even start to describe in how many ways my life (and, for that matter, my body shape) has improved dramatically.
>You cannot build a life (or a physique) while drinking.
My dad was a gigachad and he drank like a sailor
>was
Life expectancy in my country is 73 years and he got to 78, that's a win in my book.
your book must be titled "How to be miserable and feel good about it" if that's a win
we know by reliable census that people can live a healthy and happy life up to 120
>people can live a healthy and happy life up to 120
Not body builders or people who lift in general. Vast majority of those 120 year olds were women who lived sedentary lifestyles. Exercise puts stress on your body and ages it, this is why men die early because male oriented jobs are stressful to the body.
>Not body builders or people who lift in general.
Oh sweaty thats because the joos come and jerk off them to death in their sleep
> healthy and happy life up to 120
Being a decrepit old man in a nursing home doesnt sound that good to me. Hell, even washing yourself/doing groceries is a win in that state
I started drinking cause life was shit,
stopped drinking when moderate drinking stopped being effective
had enough self control to know how much is too much
life is still shit anyway, only now I can't use alcohol as a way of feeling better because I've a tolerance
Based quitter. I was in the top decile <---- 14 months ago, but since then I haven't had a drop. Life changed immensely for the better.
I built better body than most dedicated bodybuilders with just pullups + forearms stick with string and weights + neck workout. I look intimidating and combat ready.
...and I noticed a clear switch in the way I'm getting treated.
I have thick lats, forearms and neck and people respect me more, people pay more attention to me when i speak where as before I would get ignored sometimes or cut me mid sentence.
The social gains are huge. I attribute most of them to neck + forearms.
I never stepped in a gym and i didn't even do pushups/situps but I may start
It took me 1 year of nonstop and trying break personal best every time
this is all I do
cardio on assault bike 5 days week
pullups 3 days week
forearms 3 days week
iron neck 3 days week now 1 day week
>I built better body than most dedicated bodybuilders with just pullups + forearms stick with string and weights + neck workout. I look intimidating and combat ready.
post body, otherwise its just a larp, not even gonna read the rest if you lay it on that thick you gotta pull up with an actual pic
>AS A TOP 1% MALE I SAY
nahh bro, prove it
i don't care i don't profit from you believing me.
you are a pussy ass b***h anyway just making posts instead of grinding. people like you never realise that it's not about tools or equipment but about effort put. You get what you put in nearly 1:1. equipment may improve it int 5% but in the end effort wins i'm telling you this because you are looking for secret bullshit. the thing is that everything works if you put in effort and that's what your missing
Yeah I'm actually with
Saying you looked better than bodybuilders is ridiculous then saying lifting weights only gives you 5% better returns than pushups is even worse. Unless you have Mike Tyson level genetics you are a delusional twink.
what forearm and neck exercises do you do?
I bought iron neck for $300 like a moron. was it worth it? I think yes from the result which came very fast but It's pain in the ass to use. my neck is now almost too big so I went down to 1 time a week since I already have bull neck
for forearms, just get a stick (i used baseball bat) and a string and tie it to some weights then roll up an down. I tried many stuff but nothing come close to this. You will have massive gains in 3-4 months. try to go as hard as you can until your forearms burn and you want to drop it
this is it
but use more weight. I am using 10kg
>iron neck
Jesus that thing makes my skin crawl, they should rename it to the neck snapper
I like the forearm exercise but I think I’ll stick to neck raises kek, I don’t frick with internal decapitation
it's actually suppose to be good for your neck, it's used in rehab and shit too. it did alleviate back + neck pain I add from computer posture
but yeah it's overpriced af. Id price it's worth at $200 but now I saw they even increased the price lmao
ngl it was impulse buy for me on black friday for $300
probably just have good genetics
I did that stuff and looked like a stick
Then I lifted and put on 30 solid pounds and look halfway decent
I went from 10 pbrs a day/night to 10 pull ups from februbary till now. Could only hang when i made the bar.
U got it man. Pull ups and not drinking/drinking less will change your body.
It's what I do and my body looks fine. Not 'optimal', but far better than when I laid on my ass all day doing frick all. Don't compare yourself to others, only your past self. The most important aspect of any fitness routine is consistency above all else. Keeping fit and healthy is a lifelong journey, so you should find ways to workout that you enjoy and doesn't get in the way. With that said, I would recommend doing squats or lunges as well, even regular bodyweight ones will do. I also agree with the other guy about kettlebells, they're very helpful for working the muscles in the lower back and hips that are difficult to work with just bodyweight stuff.
yes, check out recommended routine on google.

What is with you guys? Why are you so poor?
The results you get on lifting are fully worth the money you pay in terms of return on time and investment. At most maybe do one month of pushups and stuff before you lift if you are in horrible shape and afraid of gyms but really it's better to just go lift
Why not doing 100 pull-ups and 100 dips on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday? Jump rope for 20 minutes on Thursday and Tuesday. Eat right and sleep right. That’s it. It just works.
You probably won’t do all that right from the start. Build up to it. Slowly: set it as your six-month goal.
One last thing. I can’t stress enough how important food and rest are. Fix your diet and your sleep schedule. Get out of bed during the day and do something else, like going on hour-long walks if need be. Avoid screens at night. Good luck.
you sound like my 25 year old alcohol NEET friend
he’ll get these periods of motivation and ask me for a bunch of advice and I’ll take my time really trying to help him out only for him to give up every time and go back to drinking
Yes and no. If you just do vanilla pushups, pull ups, and bodyweight squats, you can get some definition. To fill out though you will need to do a lot of variations and add other bodyweight exercises like dips, lunges, etc.
Ottermode is 90% diet. So you have to quit drinking. Unless you have top tier genetics, booze prevents aesthetics from going past dad bod. If you are an unironic alcoholic, go to AA
Here is the only device that you will need.
