I tried working out for awhile but I got sick of it. It's not like I'm overweight anyway. Floors are dirty and I have severe obsessive compulsive disorder with contamination fears. I can't even walk on the floor without slippers on or I'll have a panic attack.

Do you really want to push your face into nazrin poop and who knows what else while doing push ups?

So in conclusion:
- don't do sports before stretches
- don't do stretches before sport

Solution? Post on /jp/.

Are you stretching to warm yourself up for an activity or are you stretching to increase flexibility?

Before work out helps warm you up
After work out increases flexibility as your muscles are warm

Senpai please. I'm at loss here.

First warm up a little by doing a few push ups, a little squating etc. and after that do some stretching. I've been doing this for years and it didn't hurt me.

[Anonymous No.]

>>12255093
You can stretch before you work out without hurting yourself, just don't push anything. If you want to be able to push yourself to your limits while stretching then do so after you work out.

I used to stretch before working out for years, now I stretch after working out and have been doing that for years also.

Nothing against calisthenics, but /fit/izen here who happened to pass by when he saw this on the front page. Glad to see my /jp/ bros are trying to get some exercise in, but calisthenics have a limited effect, and once you reach a certain peak, increasing is pointless beyond just increasing the number.

If you want to continue to get /fit/ past the very basics and look good, you need to do cardio and weights. If you want to look beefy, do HIIT cardio 2x/week and lift in 8-12 reps 3-4x/week. If you just want to be super /fit/, do whatever style cardio you like 2x/week, and strength training 3-4x/week. You'll see results over time.

Here's something we value as a sort of holy bible over there: http://liamrosen.com/fitness.html

I'm not any of the anons you're replying to, but there's static stretching and dynamic stretching (or stretch-warm up).

I'm not the end all knowledge for this but I think the general "consensus" is that static stretch before anything CAN cause more harm than good like reducing the body's actual flexibility or some shit. Therefore, they recommend you either warm up then static stretch, or do a dynamic stretch which the method you can look up yourself. Afterwards, its static stretches after your work out.

This is all " " honestly, and you should listen to your body and feel what works best for you

This is all a bunch of bro science. Scientific data shows both a net positive and net negative with stretches depending on the study.

My best advice is that you do most of your static stretches after, and all your dynamic stretches prior. Especially if you're into sports.

Static exercises don't involve a lot of movement ("stretching") while dynamic exercises do ("jumping jacks"). Static exercises fuck up cardio runs in competitions is the ONLY thing regarding stretching that has been scientifically proven.

the point of streching is mostly to avoid muscle aches, that's at least why i do it afterwards

[Anonymous No.]

While I agree that weight lifting is superior in buiding muscle (regardless of if you want strength or looks), I want to point out that calisthenics aren't limeted to increasing the number. They can be quite good for strength training if you increase the resistance/do harder versions. Adding weight to whatever exercise is a good way to do so. Doing pure bodyweight however is quite limeted. Gymnastics is a good thing to look into if that's of interest to anyone. Being able to do your first one-handed push-up or first headstand push-up is quite fullfilling, more than increasing the weight you lift (at least in my opinion).

I'm just saying, but I could probably beat up all of you, and I'm only 5'2. This is because I am a black belt in aikido and can take on a man with 3x my weight - in fact, their weight only works against them as I evade their sluggish blows and push them such that they harm themself. The stronger the enemy fighting me, the stronger I am. This is the principal of aikido.

Just the bar, bench, plates?

what do you need equipment for? if you wanna train certain muscles, do excersises for that area - it's not difficult

The Remimi will always be my motivation.


>>12255267
I already do that, but I feel like I'm not progressing at all.
All I have been doing is adding more reps. I need more weight, and plates/bars cost money.

I'm already at 20 pull-ups and 25 push-ups reps per set, among other exercises.

[Anonymous No.]

>>12255347
Look at harder variants of the exercises you do.
You can also add weight to them, like with a backpack filled with your piss bottless or something.
What will she think of you if you can't even carry your own weight? With one hand? Is Elite Force Commander just a flashy name to you or do you want it to mean something!?

It's a long shot, but any other /jp/sies into WW?
>>12255347
20 isn't many, but here are the next steps for those:
Push-ups with your legs elevated
Aymmetric push-ups
One-armed push-ups
Handstand push-ups

Wide grip pull-ups
Asymmetric pull-ups
One-armed pull-ups

Adding weights is useful too.

lifting is actually the easiest way to be not fat, you exert alot of energy in a short time frame, giving you more time to take it easy than trying to be a cardio nut.

[Anonymous No.]

>>12255347


one of the cheapest ways to get funktional on a budget is to find something long and heavy, like a sledge hammer or wood maul, and swing it around in different ways.

look up hammer throw exercises, training your core and back muscles is especially important if you spend alot of time on the jay, since using the computer keeps your arms and shoulders in flexion, which leads to poor posture, pain, and loss of mobility over time if your upper back and posterior chain is not kept tight.
