okay so this might be the stupidest question ever but in my defense I am pretty stupid

I keep seeing these different workout routines for different goals on insta, so like there's hypertrophy, muscle growth and strength

but... isn't it all the same thing?? isn't hypertrophy your muscles getting bigger? and so getting stronger? and if you get stronger, doesn't that mean your muscles are growing?

I am so lost and confused

pls help king

I'm sure you're not stupid anon, give yourself some more credit! There's a shit ton of confusing info out there when it comes to fitness stuff, even I find myself occasionally reading a paper and being like ??? lmao

The answer from the training guide I use most often is kinda yes and kinda no lol, basically hypertrophy is what is gonna ultimately drive muscle growth - however it is possible to see muscle growth without comparative increases in strength at the same time. Typically workout routines that are aimed at increasing strength will have you lifting heavier weights.

I've been thinking about that post that's like hey don't think autism is destigmatized irl just because there's memes on this website about "my autism beam" or whatever and Ykw?? Guys, it's not even hard to see how much people still love dogging on autistic people for being "weird" all over the entire internet! Even on here!! A lot of people still see us as the people they're allowed to bully for no reason, and while I'm glad there's been some positive change over the years, we still need to work towards getting people to unpack why they think some people are ok targets, and how most of the time it's ableism.

#casinos whining hour #ableism #autism #asd #hell even im guilty of this to an extent and have to catch myself and ask why i think someones behavior is 'funny' #like if its coming from an ok place or not or if i need to examine further #a lot of things we picked up when we were younger was from copying other people to fit in and that came with stuff we need to do away with

hey king, how's it going today? did you see any cool snails walking around?

idk if you'll know this, but it's a fitness question and I thought maybe you might have an idea

I read up a fair bit on nerdfitness.com and started doing their bodyweight strength workout (and increase reps/difficulty as I go) and I've noticed my arms getting bigger and I know for abs to show, there's a lot of what you eat/how much calories you consume/spend etc that has to do with it. but for now I'm just trying to focus on my muscles getting bigger, and even tho I can feel my arms muscles getting bigger, I feel like with my abs, they are not progressing as fast in terms of the abs muscles growing.

idk, is this normal? like is it easier to grow arms muscles than abs muscles?

thank you

Hey there anon, ah I wish I could have seen some cool snails out and about today but I did see the chocolate guy make a giant snail out of chocolate on Instagram just a few min ago so that's already made my day!

With regards to your fitness question though, I honestly don't know whether it's necessarily inherently easier to grow any one muscle group over another. If you're doing the exact same number of exercises and reps for both areas, and the effort you're putting into both areas is getting you to that hypertrophy sweet spot, then what it may come down to is the percentage of body fat present in those areas.

From what ive read and in my own personal experience, as you burn body fat typically this has the visual effect of emphasizing the tone of the muscles in that area - but where your body is gonna torch fat from first depends mostly on genetics. So if your body is predisposed to want to burn fat from your arms before taking it from other locations, the loss of body fat in that area will tend to make those muscles stand out more visually.

Take this info with a grain of salt though, I'm by and large consulting from a body recomposition book I bought a couple months ago but I'm only about 3/4ths of the way through lol. The subject of whether one muscle group is truly easier to build up than another isn't one I've come across yet in my research, but the subject of the effect of body fat loss on muscle toning in different parts of the body has, so that's why I focused more on that angle for now. If I do find info out there that says otherwise though I'll definitely come back and update my answer!

It is his burrow and blanket. #The familiar soup and banter is his home. The familiar arguments and tension are also his home. #Notice how quickly he throws LWJ to the side once he has JC back in reach! 'He was so boring; I wish *you* were there!' #WWX is very quick to constantly remind himself that he fits within a very specific power structure and role. #He pushes boundaries but almost always only the boundaries that he knows he can push against. #Sitting here now and realizing that if WWX did take life more seriously and act more diligent he would totally usurp JC. #Because the contrast with Them (tm) is wwx is the one that gets in trouble and JC is the one that sticks to the rules. #That responsible appearance especially in contrast is the thin line that holds JC's self-esteem together. #And lets be fully honest. From JC's perspective the last week was also extremely intense and stressful. #It truly was a feat to travel so far so fast despite also being exhausted. Never knowing if it is all in vain. #JC said with his actions 'I would move mountains for you and dig through stone with my bare hands if it meant reaching you.' #and WWX said '[read]' #It's about wwx chronically asking 'why would someone care for me? I'm always tool to be used' than accepting that people love him.

You should draw Vanny with that red lipstick more often she slays in it 😍

She only wears the red lipstick when in her suit but I agreed wholeheartedly,, queen
