Harsh truth about lifting weights
Right now you're probably admirning your guns and thinking nice, but before it's too late, i'll mention it.
Hardly anyone speaks about it and they keep it to themselves, until they realise they have this problem.
It's called Hemorrhoids.
Basically when you're lifting weights there are these lumps inside your intestine which get pulled down the more you strain when lifting.
These lumps will then come out of your bum and will bleed or feel really sore especially when sitting down.
You then have to stop for 2 months to fully heal it and eat loads of fiber.
However on the point of fibre, when I wasn't lifiting with the same diet, I was fine and I didn't get hemorids, but when I was lifting my hemorrhoids came out. So it's defiently linked more with lifting than fiber?!
I spoke to other people and they also have this problem, but no one mentions it at first to beginners so be really careful.
Any tips on how to lift with hemorids?
Basically don't lift too eagerly and be weary.

Just googled it. Eurgh, looks like anal prolapse (also do not google)
I don't think lifting weights would be the sole cause of this - true abdominal stress increases likelihood of external hemorhoids but there are a lot more factors to consider. You may for example just be genetically predisposed to it. There's also diet to take into account, bowel movements etc. etc.

No necessarily.
If you were on a decent diet (i.e. not just stodgy protein leading to haemorrhoids) and lifting, you might not get them.
Thus making a low fibre diet the necessary factor, while lifting merely provokes them in those who are on a crap diet.
Either way, I've never heard of anyone getting haemorrhoids because of lifting before, although you're probably right I think the reason for most is still fibre in diet.
I don't lift heavy and have 6 packs and i'm lean u mad bro???

Six pack on skinny guy is like boobs on a chunky girl. Doesn't really count. But well done, if it works for you who am I to say different.

Good work then! I get annoyed as a muscular lean guy when skinny guys come up to me and say that they 'worked hard' to get their packs too. I just laugh.

I'm sure you'd be singing a different tune if you could squat 150kg. Lol get back to the gym, you're still weak.

How do I prevent it, is there a technique I can use now, mines gone away and I dont want it to come back when I lift
