Depends on your sport, but if you want to just focus on functional muscle which will help your power output, do something like Starting Strength/Stronglifts.

Squats, deadlifts, pressing (bench/overhead), and rows.

If you do want specifically muscular endurance though, you'll want to be doing like 15-20 reps per set though.

Not great for gaining muscle ofc as you'll be stuck on a certain weight until you can properly crank out 20 reps with good form.

Reduced my squat weight slightly as I was leaning too far forward which my shoes allow me to, probs not too great for my spine though so focusing on keeping my chest up.

Back to the weight I was at for my bench/OHP before my shoulder injury which is good.

Bought an ab wheel too, RIP my stomach.

wot is every1 else up to

Basically my goal, it's before I gained weight. Also I need to work on laughing more. But I just lift weights now and do a lot of kardio. That pic is like 2 years old though.

Nice abs and obliques and is a nice goal but for me im all about mass, i want to be huge!!!

Super late reply.

I do have to cycle a lot which helps down on the weight (because I need to cycle to get places) then a bit of muscle work gets it sorta done. But if I'd want to bulk up.. I'd have to hit the gym way more often than 2 times a week, need to eat way more and such.. That's not for me.

Respect if you can do it though.

Seeing how I'm only 13, I'm not allowed in my gym, but I do the basic sports like football and tennis during the weekend.

You should look into body weight exercices :)

almost at 3 plate

[Funtage 0]

Personally prefer playing sport than weight lifting etc. It's costly and some people take it unnecessarily far.

Some guy wanted to play TT so I messaged him, beat him 5-2 (11-13 11-8 11-13 11-6 11-9)

Hopefully play again tonight.

So I joined that society, also joined the badminton society.

Went to tennis trials today for lads, about 75 of us. 3 stages knocking people out until down to about 15-20 of us, re trials are Tuesday 9-11pm...

Other than that I joined the gaming society here for £3 lmao

also the history one.

Recently started climbing, not particularly going to get me super fit but it'll keep me healthier than I was before.

[SonyTwan 1,208]

Yeah I need to find a sport, enjoyed badminton and squash a few years ago.

Climbing will build your forearms like fuck Skeff if you do it regularly, alongside your grip.

[Skeff 289]

Yeah my forearms are currently quite numb and I know it won't get better but at least it's fun.
