What sort of gift should I give to my girlfriend? I want to suprise her and let her know how special she is to me. I don't know what to get her. I've never seen her wear jewelry or eat chocolate. I don't trust internet searches for this because it either says I need to spend a lot of money or that I shouldn't be buying her anything because she'll get used to it.

Get her a bag of skittles. Women ultimately resent the man who gives her ostentatious gifts because it shows you care too much, which is a sign of weakness.

jewlery

chocolate

Though a nice place to start, Im glad you didnt jump on one of those options.

She engage in any hobbies/ crafts? Get her a nice piece of equipment that she will use regularly.

Sometimes you dont even need to get anything. You just have to celebrate the ocassion with a little time set aside for reflection. Go for a walk/hike, talk about the last year and the one ahead.

Does she like to read?

Have any of you improved your myopia? Mine has gotten worse, too much reading and screen time, but I don’t want it to keep getting worse. I’ve started doing focusing exercises but I’m not sure what else will help, or how much I should be doing them. I don’t wear glasses and I’m far too stubborn to get any

Are you a drawfag? Probably better at it than you think, if you can do a drawing of a place that’s important to the two of you (first date, favorite park, favorite bookstore) that would be a really nice, memorable gift. Painting can actually be easier than just regular drawing, especially with nature scenes, very forgiving

I also wouldn’t knock the necklace idea, it’s a really sweet that she could wear it and always have a token of you with her. Just make sure you ask another female before you buy it so you don’t get something really out of style. Simple is best

Been lifting and dieting for half a year. I've dropped 40 pounds, am stronger than I was in high school. Still smoke, but it's down to 2 cigs a day organic tobacco with non-fiberglass filters and even then I can run a 9 minute mile as a warmup. Trying to cut porn. Went almost 4 months then fell off the wagon.

Feels decent, but now I have such a cold and bitter hatred of the things around me. Even moreso than before. It's like I discovered another layer of filth, and I cant stand it. It's to the point where I work out as a form of meditation.

Going on a vacation soon though. Camping, hiking, fishing, horseback riding. Im really looking forward to it

Appreciate the thread. Now I'm up to 35x5x5 on chest. I know it's not exactly world breaking, but it's the first milestone I set. Kept a workout journal and it's pretty great. Gonna make it bros.

Well anons, I started the 5x5 workout routine today, and I'd like to share what I did, how I think I did and I want to ask for some feedback.

So, first thing I did was pack some water, light clothes, and ate something. Now, I only ate about 15 minutes before the exercise, as I was busy with studying, and I can only afford to spend so much time on different things. I ate a soup of Polish lentil soup with chunks of boiled beef, and went to the gym.

First thing I did was a bit of stretching, but I'm not sure if I did enough, I'll get to that in a moment. I started off with squats. I got the barbell, got into starting position, and I struggled a bit. First I tried to hold the barbell up behind my back, just above my neck, but I nope'd straight away. I then tried resting it on my neck, and nope'd once again as I felt it press against my neck way too much. I managed to get a position where I supported it with my neck, but held it firmly in my arms. After a few squats, I started to think I didn't stretch right, cause I felt a pain in my biceps. It wasn't injury pain, I don't think, but it felt a bit too severe to be simply worn out or tired, especially so early on in the exercise. Anyways, I did 5 sets of 5 reps each, though I couldn't get my hips below my ankles (my thighs are a bit too thicc, I think. It's been like that forever, even back in primary school when I played soccer on the daily, my thighs were rather thick). Grand, that's done, onto the bench press.

Now, I am no newbie to bench press, and I have gotten to lifting 40kg (nothing big, I know), so the starting weight of 20kg was nothing. Still, did the 5x5, better to stay in the routine. Not much to say here.

Then came the 30kg barbell row, and it didn't go as well as I had wanted it to go. While I got the 5x5 done easily enough, I found my upper body pitching up to around 40 degrees, which is much above the 30 degrees inclination that is recommended as max. The rest was grand, just gonna have to work on the form.

All in all, the exercise took me about half an hour, after which I had some nice Irish lamb stew to replenish the muscles overnight. The short duration of the workout is the thing which is my largest concern. Am I doing something wrong? Is there anything that should be focused in particular? Thanks for reading, and any advice is much appreciated.

Only squat to parellel. Squatting ass to grass will result in you activating your low back to push up the weight at first, which is injury inducing, especially when your form is sloppy as a beginner.

If you have experience benching, start at a weight that is actually difficult, fuck the programme. The whole point of making you start light is so you have time to practice good form before you get to real weight, but you can't exactly bench "wrong" to an extent you injure yourself like you can with Squats and Deads, so just start benching with a weight that makes you struggle on every 5th rep.

Barbell rows are tricky and I still don't fully understand them to be honest. All I know is that if you're taller, you will have more of an incline, you can't avoid it.

The weight of the bar resting on your upper back/spine WILL hurt the first few times, especially if you have terrible posture and a rounded back. You'll get used to it and it will correct itself.

Your workout is quick now because you don't have much weight to build up to. Once you're pushing heavy weight, you will spend a lot of time on pyramid warmup sets. I also suggest you do pull-ups/dips(alternating) at the end of every workout as your first accessory, because every man should be able to do multiple pull-ups.

A few things. Squatting that deep is good but not necessary, going to parallel is usually all you need. Also if you’re having trouble hitting higher weight, try hip press (4x20 or something high volume). Another thing, I’m not sure what routine you’re doing but make sure you’re doing deadlifts and overhead press, they’re essential for overall strength. If you can hit 1/2/3/4 (1 plate OHP, 2 plate bench, 3 plate squat, 4 plate deadlift) you’re as good as you need to be strength-wise. Also, some really important exercises for aesthetics and strength are pull-ups, dips, farmers walks and forearm curls, shrugs, curls and tricep extensions. If you do all of those, you should be good.

Last thing, invest in protein powder (MyProtein is a great brand imo), and creatine monohydrate for when you’re bulking. Hope this helps and god speed on your journey

Don't eat before lifting. Eat high protein w/30 min AFTER lifting, e.g. 1/2 gal of whole milk (chocolate milk if you're not a lardass)

Don't lift barbells, lift DUMBELLS. Much harder to hurt yourself using dumbells, and you don't need a squatter unless you're doing stupid high weight (you'll know when you need one)

Don't do isolation exercises, do COMPOUND exercises. Don't be a bodybuilder, be a weightlifter.

Get a stamina routine. Hill sprints are great. Look up high intensity interval/Tabata training. Do this every other or every third day.

Stretch AFTER lifting/running. Do some warm ups/light stretching to make sure you're ready to lift, but don't work on flexibility until afterward, it hurts your lifting power doing it before.

Otherwise: Good fucking job, you've probably lifted more than half the neets here, and more than 95% of the (((JDIF faggots))).

You should be pulling the barbel down on your traps. Also, 45 minutes is the "sweet zone" test starts to drop after this. Maybe try prolonging your resting period a bit, you should also take a day out of your week to work on your mobility. You might also want to not eat so soon before working out as it can lead to some pretty bad nausea if you overwork yourself on a pr.

Good evening once again fine gentlemen. Tonight I wish to discuss another important aspect of /sig/, the understanding as to why things have "fallen" societal level. Namely I will doing a primer on the inversion of beauty and nobility to it's current semetic form of embracing the ugly and the modern promotion of the vile and it's effect on us. I shall endeavour to offer an insight into this so you, my fellow sons of Europa, have an understanding of one of the most fundamental weapons in our opponents arsenal and how it is used to weaken your resolve.

Let us begin with art. When one looks at a piece of classical art one has a true sense of the scale and beauty of the said piece. Be it a Napoleonic battle scene or a recreation of the battle of Gettysburg, it encompasses both heroism and tradegy within it. Or mayhaps one glances upon a piece involving a beautiful woman or even a member of the one of the European gods of any pantheon, there is always a level of wonder and awe within the piece. The curves and grace of Venus. The might of Odin. These pieces speak intrinsically to the European soul, an image of beauty and power forever immortalised upon canvas. There is a distinct level of skill and what one could almost term "soul" in the piece that makes it truly a wonder to any man of noble spirit.

Now compare that to modern "progressive" art. Let us for instance look at the "world famous" Tate gallery in London. Have a guess at what one of it's most notable pieces. Could it be perhaps a grand facade depicting Wagner's epic piece Entry of the Gods into Valhalla? Could it be an homage to Dante's journey through the circles of Hell? No. No it is not. It is a rock. Yes, dear brothers you indeed read that right. A rock. But wait I hear some anon cry yonder, surely there is more to modern art than that? Why yes there is! There was the unmade bed with a used condom left on it, lined with filth and dirty clothes, an apparent "reflection" of the modern times (of course from the mind of a (((tribe))) member). There was the used tampon upon a pedestal. There was even a dead shark preserved in formaldehyde, oh such glories of glories. This is what is considered "progress" when looking through the lense of the semetic world. Preserved corpses, a blooded female sanitary product and a dead and lifeless rock. These are but three minor examples but dear friends there is so much more. Here we can clearly see a demonstration of the semetic inversion of beauty with the ugly. There is no beauty to be found in a dead shark. Oh, of course, you have the (((excuse))) of "beauty is in the eye of the beholder" but come now, any man of right mind understand these things are not beauty, they are adorations of the disgusting and disturbed. But, mayhaps, you are not convinced. Then please feel free to look up a recent trend of "Outsider Art", the latest in the semetic theme of degeneration. I do hope you enjoy seeing human teeth attached to childrens dolls.
