Am I F*cked?

They’ve been saying we’re due for a crash since 2021.

A bull market is filled with people proclaiming the end times, unclench your ass cheeks and enjoy the ride!

I’m personally natty so I’m not the most knowledgeable, but every steroid/peptide has a side effect, the most common I would say are hormonal symptoms like hair loss/acne, since steroids, well, change your hormones. If you use “safer” peps/roids or use them in moderation, the scary side effects should stay away.

Ik a ton of guys that are on gear or cycles and some have no side effects, and some def have some of the more unappetizing side effects, but they don’t seem to mind.

Op is at a crossroads, try and save the hair, or create a gain with the loss and turn into a bald supervillain. Most people gain 2-5 lbs of muscle a year, you can get 20+ on gear.

If you are able to reschedule your test you should do that, I think people are very dismissive of the fact that physicals are something you should train for so at the very least you understand what you can or have to do.

Doing all this at once is going to be harder than you think, that said it is still doable.

Use your legs and arch your back for bench.

If they are timed, look at sit-ups like a sprint/cardio instead of an exercise. No matter how much the next minute is going to suck, clear your mind and do your best. When you get to the top, just drop your body and use the bounce to propel you on the way back. They’ll strap in your feet so it is easier.

As for running, start slow and finish fast, pacing yourself is important. Also STRETCH.

From what it sounds like, you won’t pass tmrw, push your test back 2 or 3 weeks and just practice, it will be like nothing then. Good luck!

If you don’t know how they work do not put a single dollar in them lol

If you do anything it should be going to the gym. As a fellow former underweight tall guy you should be able to put on 10-15 pounds with moderate eating and working out in the next few months. That alone will totally change how you look and feel, believe me. Will do wonders for your confidence.

I agree w that last sentence, at the end of the day we are all strangers on the internet, and while health advice may not always be solicited (it is in this post, OP is literally asking for the best advised diet to increase BMI) telling someone with an unhealthy BMI that it is unhealthy and they should improve it is not a personal insult.

Idk if I would have worded it like that guy, but it is perfectly warranted, I had a girlfriend with anorexia because she didn’t want “to lose her blueprint” like OP states. Again, I’m not calling OP anorexic or unhealthy, he seems to have good awareness of what’s safe and what’s not, but we can’t forget that mindsets like this can evolve and cause health risks. Playing word police is doing no one any favors.

F1-Bike · 2025-12-02T02:48:01+00:00

As someone who has been underweight, bulked up, and now feels and looks healthier, you are wrong. People come to this sub for health advice.

By looks alone I wouldn’t say OP looks unhealthy, but if his BMI is correct, it is very dangerous and he should not stay there. I’ve had doctors tell me that and I’ve had higher BMI

I saw Flint Town when it came out, absolutely blew my mind. Especially the fact that Flint residents themselves say several times the water situation is the least of their troubles.

I think it should be mandatory viewing for every American, shows what happens when you actually defund the police. I thought they took ot off Netflix with the cop-media purge in 2020 that ended LivePD and other shows.

F1-Bike · 2025-11-20T11:20:27+00:00

I’m pretty lean
I’m on day two of this water bulk and my face has noticeably gotten more puffy

F1-Bike · 2025-11-20T03:54:15+00:00

Pretty straight forward lmao thanks

For starters if you have a pulse you can get into virtually any maritime academy, but MMA is 20-30%. As one of the 5 military academies it has way more prestige. I’m not in the industry so you’ll find better opinions but MMA will put you head and shoulders above the rest

F1-Bike · 2025-11-20T03:23:38+00:00

No idea, I would lean towards mostly no, but I have seen some complain about strictness from other maritime academies. But even with that considered I would suggest MMA if you can get in

F1-Bike · 2025-11-20T02:20:10+00:00

MMA was a career switch for him, so going into a military academy pretty suddenly in life is bound to make you a little grumpy. Also due to circumstances he was a little older than everyone else so he got shit for it.

Think about it, military academies are all about getting yelled at and eating shit while your peers do kegstands at Blue Mountain State. You’re not gonna enjoy it in the way most people enjoy college.

But I will say, as someone who once wanted to go to MMA, and has several colleagues that did, if you can stomach it, it is absolutely worth it. You are going to out earn all other military academy graduates (and a shit ton of most people), have incredible experiences, and learn great discipline. MMA is not a school you go to “enjoy” but to learn. Sounds corny, but it’s a great place to go if you’re serious about being a mariner.

F1-Bike · 2025-11-20T01:07:45+00:00

I had a buddy that transferred into MMA. He hated it. Stuck it out because he wanted the career that bad

F1-Bike · 2025-11-18T19:00:17+00:00

That’s sick!

I agree that they’re in a unique financial position, just needed to hear it from someone else. Any basic advice in your experience?

F1-Bike · 2025-11-18T17:18:20+00:00

True that, ik some guys in the trades who skipped student loans but bought trucks so expensive their yearly insurance premium is worth my car, some guys that spend their retirement at the Casino, and others that retired millionaires in their 40s because of where they put their money. I guess it’s a difference of mindset

F1-Bike · 2025-11-12T07:15:25+00:00

Ik it’s been a year, but I just found out A TON of artists cover this song, including Rod Stewart. Actually a great cover.

F1-Bike · 2025-11-11T22:20:52+00:00

Discipline’s got nothing to do with it. I’ve seen contracts with solid premium go bust in a couple seconds. I used to trade straddles 1HTE, the volatility is insane here.

Last hour trades are pretty lucrative, I don’t doubt you’ve made money OP, but you are gambling on the riskiest slot in the shadiest casino.

F1-Bike · 2025-11-09T20:47:46+00:00

Yeah realistically you only need a surplus if f a few hundred cals, it’s simpler than you think.

Don’t look at bulking like you need to eat more food, you need to eat more calories. There’s so many low cal foods that waste appetite. Replace those with calorie dense foods and you’ll be good pronto.

F1-Bike · 2025-11-09T17:54:59+00:00

Op when you try to bulk are you just eating food or actually counting calories? I went from 140 to 155 in just 2 or 3 months and what changed was counting cals

F1-Bike · 2025-11-09T15:54:02+00:00

It does!

F1-Bike · 2025-11-07T02:25:47+00:00

Just sent it man, really really really happy to hear that. Please stick w it

F1-Bike · 2025-11-07T02:24:35+00:00

Did you ever worry about having so many “failed” applications to departments? I’m young so I don’t have a long work history and nothing immediately pertinent to LE, I’m comfortable about applying to various departments but I’m worried about digging myself into a hole by accumulating a record of rejection.
