EPTI must've forgotten to completely lock out my arms during the lift at some point, deadlifted with arms with a tiny bend. Sitting here with tennis elbows =P.

Gains arne't htat apparent, and I'm not really pear shaped so... dunno. Yeah, I wouldn't consider myself to be skinnyfat either, but I don't look like I weigh almost 200 lbs (should hit it within a month. Hyped.) Decaf doesn't look like he weighs 220, either. I think we're all used to people who weigh a certain amount having a bunch of fat on them too, so being lean at a given weight throws off your perception.

Also my doc told me to do shoulder exercises where you make a square with your shoulder movements liforward, then up. and forward then up & back, the back & down. & also to do neck exercises where you push your head back. Basically your body gets used to the positions you put it in and you have to conciously correct your posture. Shoulders back, stomach & butt tite, head back, but all very relaxed and natural Particular strengthening/stretching exercises are going to depend on what's wrong with your posture to start with - google is your friend in solving this problem, because there's a ton out there. Best tip I can give is that each time you walk through a doorway, remind yourself to get into correct posture, and then hold it as long as you remember to. You walk through twenty doorways in a day, and that's a lot of practice. Posture is very much governed by habit, so no matter what work you do to correct it, until you make the corrected posture override the old bad habit, it's not going to show. | ||

I think i need some accessory or something because my body has now been too accustomed to slouching. It's not like a hunchback slouch or anything but you know. progress well in your lifts and mobility and your posture will eventually follow | ||

Most of them will probably sign up at the local planet fitness anyway. My gym is full of the school's "athletes", and it costs $45/semester - PF is $10/month and they have more treadmills, better hours, and a more "welcoming" atmosphere. | ||

Top post was a debate on between whether the perfect height is 6'2 or 6'4 lol. I guess that makes Zyzz, Scooby, Arnold and every other /fit/ hero a manlet then. | ||

I go there for entertainment. The occasional greentext stories tend to be more personal on /fit/. I definitely wouldn't trust it for anything remotely related to exercise though. edit: 6'1 scandinavian masterrace. hue. | ||

It has been accused of being nothing but a hive for insecure teenage boys, and I think that might be true. 99% of all threads are about feels and insecurities, I doubt most of the users even lift.
