how many can you do
 

I can't get past 18 yet..

I cunt even roll over to point my body downwards. Im kinda like an upturned turtle in bed atm... :(

Pretty cool that you can get in shape like that without having to change clothes :upsidedow

Why? Even healthy people get old and die someday - just going to sit and relax.

:2 cents: . . . you've reached enlightenment.

Did this in prison everyday for years lol

I like cutting grass though.
I like the weed eater the best because it looks like it's eating stuff for real.

:1orglaugh

I cut a front yard of a house that is neglected today and it livened up my day.
I think watching youtube vids has made me get more into it.

I actually watch this shit instead of porn :

Muscles protect your body

Since switching from sitting at a computer all day to walking around and lifting things all day at a real job, I've lost 40lbs, got a 6 pack, ripped shoulders, etc. But I still can't do pushups, they suck..

A few days ago, 15, three series but that's what the trainer told me to do. It was after a previously finished much more serious bench workout. I will try on Monday to do only pushups before having muscles tired with big weights

just got 19 yesterday.. barely

When I workout at home, I usually do 5x30, but the main thing for me is to be consistent, so even if I do ten pushups every day, I am happy! :)

Nothing like prison to pump you up, isn't it ? ?

Actually, "forced reps" are unhealthy for metabolic well being.

Any exercise that causes micro-tears, for purposes of rebuilding more tissue, puts your body in sympathetic mode (fight flight vs rest and heal).

Here's the whole explanation:

Non-aerobic exercise has greater advantages for overall health.

Focusing on:

- Keto diet
- Intermittent fasting (I have been doing one meal a day OMAD for 1.5 years now)
- Feed your gut biome
- Daily gentle regular exercise and stretching
- 12 hrs down time each day.
- Regular prayer/meditation

It works!

:2 cents:

Got to 20... 30 seems impossible

Same competition done at company. I love watching this video. The comments section is full of haters who say the winner wasn't doing proper pushups. I'm not sure. They look pretty damn good to me!



Quality of life.

You got a six pack from walking around and lifting things at your job?

It might seem a stretch (pun intended), unless you've actually experienced it first hand.

A dozen years ago, I sustained a serious, permanent, physically debilitating injury, which over the years, cascaded into subsequent reinjuries and new injuries - by the degrading nature of the initial insult, and through overusing the remaining healthy parts (you know the joke "with remaining eye, do not look into the laser").

I reached a point where: I was in constant excruciating pain; I could not sleep, hence chronically sleep deprived; I could barely walk requiring a cane; and my body would seize up with cramps and muscle spams that literally ripped tendons.

It's not that I didn't take care of myself before, or after, my injury. Some physical traumas don't go away, ever, but...

Over the past year and a half, I have been experiencing an amazing recovery through a regime I accidentally evolved into (as I mentioned earlier in this thread).

My inflammation and associated pains have been substantially attentuated.

I can sleep and rest and heal, again.

By stretching and doing only range of motion exercises, I've managed to be able to walk again, without a cane.

Now, by walking 1-2 hours daily in addition to my OMAD keto diet, I dropped 50 lbs, and I've not felt better in 15 years.

As I'm en route to 70, I'm not obsessed with a six-pack, but by next summer, I know it will be there.

The salient elements of this regime, which in many ways were how I lived as healthy as I could, are:

• Stop ingesting crap (sugar, booze, nicotine, bad oils, preservatives, factory foods).
  
• Don't be afraid of healthy (yes, saturated) fat (coconut oil, olive oil, fish oil). Make sure your Omega 3 is balanced with your 6.
  
• You can still pig out on as much volume of food as you crave (I do - I never feel hungry, even with just one meal a day), but keep the protein to (healthy non-starchy) carb ratio to mostly protein.
  
• Intermittent fasting (keep as many hours between your last meal and your first - I usually have 20 hrs between meals), is important to apply a healthy stress to the body which kicks it in gear, and also perform daily cell cleanup (autophagy).
  
• Supplement, with whole food if possible, to ensure healthy level of Zinc, Vitamin D, magnesium, potassium, sodium (salt is good), iron, Vitamin C.

I've never taken pharmaceuticals (or CBD), before, during, or now.

Anyone relying on pain killers and steroids is just pushing symptoms down and creating new, more severe, illness/disease down the road.

It surprises me how by just establishing and maintaining metabolic health is all it took to experience such dramatic life-restoring health improvements.

One other tier of this was shifting my life schedule (work/rest cycles) to follow circadian rhythm, and to understand the importance of natural light - especially near infrared for good health. Going up and going down, rest-wise, requires adjusting light accordingly.

This works for me.

Anyone who may be seriously interested in this, is welcomed to contact me personally. I have nothing to sell, but I know that anyone suffering with pain/inflammation, or insulin resistance, might appreciate a path that has been proven to work for many.

I'd be happy to share my resources.

Yeah, but I'm also eating better than I used to and go to a skate park a lot. Sitting at a computer all day for years vs now is a lot different, I feel like a teen again and not almost 40 lol.

I always thought you had to do thousands of sit ups (and lose weight) to get a six pack. I was nearly there for a while with a 4 1/2 pack lol, but then I gained weight again. Now I'm trying to cut back down.

I did too, but that sometimes can make your stomach stick out a bit. I was at a point where I was trying to gain weight again, though, that made it easier.
