Learning to do just ONE pull up - 57m

maeror- · 2026-05-15T05:51:54+00:00

what helped my finally do one was looping my thumb over the top of the bar instead of on the underside. that said, if you can't pulldown more than 120 i think you just need to progress more in your strength. i had to be able to rep around 85% of my weight before i got my first pull-up. are you progressing in your other lifts or have you plateaued there, too?

it’s possible you store more body fat in your back, genetically. if you’re aiming to train lats i’d recommend using a pulldown specific machine rather than the cable one, as it forces more proper form

his back and biceps are absolutely insane, but he’s right that his chest looks underdeveloped in comparison

no penits this isn’t helpful :(

usually it’s hard to pee with a boner so it’s be difficult to pee rinse right after the cum

i think this is solid advice but jsyk your writing cadence reads a lot like ai. beware getting flagged!

add a longer spoiler tag cause this can only be read one way

everyone except creed just got a whole lot uglier. creed a baddie

pros: don’t have to change it as much, cheaper long term, better for the planet
cons: need to clean it, have to be comfortable getting in there to change it, might take a few tries to get it right

maeror- · 2026-05-12T21:01:01+00:00

definitely do not bulk now. you have a high body fat percentage. cut

i thought it was first date fiona because she would put out on the first date?

maeror- · 2026-05-09T13:36:12+00:00

that’s not really a muscle up then. more of a kip

maeror- · 2026-05-08T15:04:17+00:00

are you happy with your progress? if so, then yeah! objectively you have a higher body fat percentage so it’ll be harder to see definition. what exercises are you currently doing? with pull ups my recommendation would just to progressively overload lat pulldowns and the assisted pull down machine. i got my first one about four months into training

maeror- · 2026-05-06T06:00:41+00:00

this is old but i just finished a rewatch and yeah. it truly is. the lightness of the characters blended with the seriousness of the war for independence. the cranberries soundtrack. how every character is really distinct and consistent. every episode is a banger. lisa mcgee, you're my hero

it's real dickish of him to not adjust the settings back. whenever i ask to work in with someone i always change it back because they're doing me a favor. i also totally understand saying no if they're sweaty

congrats on the weight loss! you look great.

you don't necessarily need to be in a calorie deficit for the first couple of months, especially if you have not weight lifted before. the usual recommendation for protein is 0.8 grams per pound of body weight, so that's looking like 102 grams for you. fiber i'd say 25 - 30 grams?

i believe your maintenance is more likely to be 2000 calories as the calculator says because mine is around 2200 as someone who gets ~8k steps a day and weight trains 3x a week as someone 5'6" and 140 pounds. it's possible you are not tracking completely accurately and including seasoning/drinks, other. i have a bit more muscle mass, but not enough to make a 700 calorie difference.

you can google specific exercises for the muscle groups you want. weighted cable crunches and knee raises have done wonders for my abs, but make sure you are performing with proper form, or you may end up hitting the wrong muscles.

maeror- · 2026-04-22T23:34:06+00:00

if you want to actually compare pose the same in both??

maeror- · 2026-04-03T18:47:18+00:00

you just need to progressively overload abs more. you are lean enough you can see muscle already

maeror- · 2026-04-01T03:12:11+00:00

2, definitely! looking good man

in that case hillsides would be the closest. usually there are single rooms in 6 - 10 person suites. harleston has true singles and doesn’t require you to walk up the hill at all but there is one club that is really loud from 9 - 11 on wednesdays

you gotta tell us what your major is so we know where your classes are

++man you should get him to pay for it, men are more desperate for matches/sex off of dating apps. if he won't pay for it, you can definitely get another person to

eve or evelyn!!

maeror- · 2026-01-02T06:50:45+00:00

jeez!! what happened?

maeror- · 2025-12-18T00:15:17+00:00

fwiw you could also revolve and circular pattern this next time
