badposting is a comm where you post badly


This is not a !the_dunk_tank@hexbear.net alternative. This is not a !memes@hexbear.net alternative. This is a place for you to post your bad posts.

Ever had a really shitty bit idea? Joke you want to take way past the point of where it was funny? Want to feel like a stand-up comedy guy who's been bombing a set for the past 30 minutes straight and at this point is just saying shit to see if people react to it? Really bad pun? A homemade cringe concoction? A cognitohazard that you have birthed into this world and have an urge to spread like chain mail?


Rules:

  1. Do not post good posts.
    • Unauthorized goodposting is to be punished in the manner of commenting the phrase "GOOD post" followed by an emoji that has not yet been used in the thread
    • Use an emoticon/kaomoji/rule-three-abiding ASCII art if the rations run out
  2. This is not a comm where you direct people to other people's bad posts. This is a comm where you post badly.
  3. This rule intentionally left blank.
  4. If you're struck for rule 3, skill issue, not allowed to complain about it.

Code of Conduct applies just as much here as it does everywhere else. Technically, CoC violations are bad posts. On the other hand: L + ratio + get ~~better~~ worse material bozo

Is it safe to do a full body workout every other day? I only have limited days I can get to the gym, and latley instead of doing upperbody or lowerbody I just do full body strenth workouts.

I am trying to gain as much as I can without getting fat.

If I go every other day I will be at the gym 4-5 times a week, is that over training?

By observing the French Republican calendar, which has 10 days in a week, you can work out 5 times a week every other day

We sans-culottes have been deprived of the opportunity to show off our massive calves for far too long

Um if you go to the gym every other day, that’s actually 3.5 days a week.

Where did you get 4-5???

so sudden you hear the quiet summer breeze outside

i can't tell you what it's gonna be, i'd lie

out of credit i hear you suffer breath out loud

you know you're in it to see the summit

If you want to gain muscle/size I recommend the 5/3/1 boring but big program. I've been lifting for years and always come back to this.

So you want to train five days a week? That sounds a little excessive

The fastest way to do it is the +500 calorie surplus for a few months and then the -500 calorie deficit. Not wanting to get fat is getting in the way, giving you more mediocre results, and making the process slower and more frustrating (in my opinion).

If you're a nooby little bird brained bird then any kind of workout is probably going to give you gains. If the strength gains plateau then so does the progress and then you're just pushing a bunch of silly things around for silly reasons. You won't get that stimulus response that tells your body to make all the cool stuff unless you can put up bigger numbers on your lifts week over week. We have the stickies from the... other websites in our sidebar on c/fitness

It sounds like a lot of reps on every muscle every week. Reminds me of this short, poignant video that I found deep within the archives of my computer soul https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FYQDo1tNCl8

It might not be overtraining because you might not be using heavy ass weights and if it were overtraining you would feel it and you wouldn't really have to ask.
