I'm not having fun lifting anymore.
What do?

Pick up guitar

>>76298665 (OP)
decrease to 2 times a week. do bench on 1 day, ohp on the other. do rows on 1 day, pullups on the other.

On both days, do cable pushdowns and cable curls.

>>76298795
i'm already doing only 2 days a week (upper/lower) with muay thai 5 days a week

Calisthenics. You can choose to do weighted for muscle gains or just focus on awesome looking progressions (the latter will get you much more women)

hi phil

>>76298665 (OP)
mix it up and find variation.

try kettlebell
try bicycling
try swimming
try hyrox

just find variation.

>>76298665 (OP)
Maintence routine/HIT
You just go harder but less often. If you half ass it you'll maintain, if you full ass it you'll grow. That's all there is to it preventing slide back is probably a bigger part of late-game lifting than growth. If you can just keep what you got anything past that will be gains.

>>76298665 (OP)
this is the only meme I made that other people have saved and it makes me happy to see it every time

>>76298665 (OP)
You just going out of habit, or you pushing some goals?

>>76298901
Got an optimal HIT routine fren which is also safe for legs (due to light injuries in the past)? Sounds interesting. I'd be grateful for your knowledge.

>>76298665 (OP)
listen to better music

>>76298969
Nothing you probably don't already know about. It's mainly swapping your compounds for machines you can feel safe going to a fuller extent of failure on and then a single accessory for whatever head in that group needs the most work. I'd probably do every other session with your barbell lifts just to make sure they're not decaying. Before switching that to every 3rd or 4th session.

They're mostly fullbodies ran with every four days as the frequency.
You can structure that any which way pplxpplx, "fullbody" a: bench squat row abs b: ohp, deads, lat pull down, glutes, just normal fullbodies. As long as lift is repeated every 4th day it's not decaying and any added intensity or loading will still elicit an adaptive response. You don't really want do it sooner than that because there's some kind neuron thing that lowers recruitment in a refractory period with high intensity. Most conventional training only banks on 80-90% strength recovery between workouts but this approach works better if a larger amount of strength is recovered which makes longer rests important even if mps is well over these things take longer. Don't try to speed it up. That's the biggest thing I can preach here is patience.

>>76298665 (OP)
Drop it.

>>76298665 (OP)
you're a man, you do what you need to do, not what's fun
You make it fun, by having friends to talk to, by changing up a split a bit, experimenting with new exercises, challenging yourself to increase weights and bettering up your diet.

>>76298665 (OP)
Having fun setting things down.

>>76298665 (OP)
Start doing Bugenhagen style training: choose an exercise you feel like maxing out on (preferably a heavy compound), work up to a heavy set to failure (<=5 reps), then hit whatever isolations you feel like for a couple of higher rep sets to failure

>>76299124
Thanks for taking the time to write it all out. Let's say someone doesn't care about their numbers on barbell lifts (and barbell in general) whatsoever, would you still say that barbell lifts are necessary? Because I gotta be honest, I lost interest in numbers a long time ago.

>>76298691
Bro needs some EMGs

>>76299175
No, I mostly recommend it to alleviate anxiety. Lot of people think they're missing out when they do HIT and think they're regressing when they're actually not. So just having some kind of objective proof they can still 10 rep their 10 rep weight if not 11 or 12 rep it now is just "proofing". If you're like me and have to always have some kind of objective criteria to measure a routine by so you stick with it, it helps.

I dont know man, the man on this picture was a general of herzegovinian croats in the war in the 90s, very very intelligent man, very loyal to his nation and its people, did everything in his power to lead his people dilligently, bravely, intelligently and fearlessly, he wrote a book of 1000 pages explaining that he did not do any war crimes and he decided to take his own life out of principle because the foreigners decided to label him as a war criminal. He fought off serbs, muslims, english, god knows who else yet they got him 30 years later. Very moral man, very intelligent man.
And when i see retarded memes like this mocking him it makes me really sad

>>76299254
it isn't mocking him

>>76298691
I sadly lost interest in guitar when I started lifting

>>76299254
>retarded memes
its what he would have wanted

go swimming, keep lifting for your health some, and get some fucking hobbies

>>76298665 (OP)
are you using your new found muscles to crush the skulls of niggers and kikes? I think I might be seeing the problem

>>76298665 (OP)
Same boat anon, I'm just spinning my wheels. Shaving my head bald unironically killed what little happiness and motivation I had left.

>>76298691
I am not a lean 21 year old Norwood 0

>>76298665 (OP)
find a sport you enjoy and lift as a means to an end

>>76298665 (OP)
Kil yourself

>>76298665 (OP)
for me, the trick was trying unconventional split + unconventional variations

>>76298665 (OP)
You muscles don't care how you feel.

Give up and start from scratch in a year. It's like presteging in call of duty

>>76298665 (OP)
Take some time away from your routine. Go in and just do whatever you want, and make your only rules to not over or under train any muscle. I’ve been doing that for a year or so now rather than conventional splits and it’s much more enjoyable. I’ll do an exercise and then look around the gym to figure out what I want to do next. It’s better.

Time for a cycle nigga

I'm thinking of doing callisthenics because the only lifts I enjoy are dips and pull ups

>>76299142
This is the way

>>76299254
shut the fuck up croRAT

>>76299254
My mom knew him personally. He was a mad lad even back in the 80s.

>>76300942
Дyдлaј гa бpe.

>>76298665 (OP)
Yeah I got bored just going to the gym and lifting. So I started crossfit. My cf gym programs strength training cycles along with the typical crossfit workouts. I've gotten much better results than I got just going to the gym and lifting on my own and I have fun.

>>76298665 (OP)
train for strength

>>76299254
they're not mocking him
and because of the memes, his legacy reaches out way farther and way longer than he would have imagined
some people probably also dismiss him as a war criminal because they got to know him through the jokes

>>76298665 (OP)
Fun?

for me it's I've gotten into a depressive mood and I've obliterated my sleep schedule barely getting by at work and now I feel like nothing matters. It'll go away soon

>>76300426
If you've already built enough muscle you can definitely get away with this, even just lifting once a week will maintain what you have

>>76298665 (OP)
Try some old school lifts. Bent press, one-handed olympic lifts, two-hands anyhow, pullover variations, etc.

>take a deload week
>try lifts you don't normally do
>go for weird goals (like a 17 rep max)
or as a last resort, skip the gym entirely for a week and do something different with your free time. watch a movie, go buy something you don't need, go hiking and watch the sunrise/sunset from the trail. i find skipping the gym for a full week makes me want to go back real bad.

>>76298665 (OP)
Lift anyways. Fuck having fun 24/7/365. That shit isn't healthy for you.

>>76299254
Bosnians and Croats are literally the same shit. I do agree though that serbs and albos are not white. Škutors should stay in their own country through instead of niggering up Mostar

>>76298969
Copy Dorian Yates' stuff

>>76299254
History is written by the winners. Long story short don't lose.
