>tfw you step into the gym for the first time as a skelly and everybody looks at you
You didn't prepare me for this /fit/
>>35166125
Never happend to me
>>35166125
Everybody starts somewhere. At least you aren't a faget sitting at home wishing he were in better shape, you're doing something about it, and people DO respect that.
>>35166125
same thing here bro
>walk into the gym as a skelly
>music comically stops
>everybody is eyeballing you
>huge ripped guy walks out in a towel
>takes it off and rat tails you in the face with it
>you slip on a a puddle of water
>janitor comes out and confuses you for a tree limb and sweeps you out of the door
never again
>>35166207
At least you didn't spill your spaghetti.
>>35166125
Just start with your little skelly weights and then keep making progress constantly. Get your calories in, rest properly etc. I think it's probably even more impressive then when you start out as bretty big already.
>>35166125
just make brief eye contact, do the white guy smile and nod.
do this everytime someone makes eye contact. forever.
I remember this feel
>>35166125
You haven't got the full feel until a girl looks at you and covers her mouth to hide her laugh.
Literally no one cares about you faggot. Just don't do retarded shit

I care OP. I love when dyels come to the gym and all they do is 15lbs pulldiwns and some curls. Im looking at you oh yeah.
>>35166125
>having gym-autism
>so self centered you think everyone pays attention to what you do in the gym
>>35166125
>tfw people mire when you lift
the ride never ends bro
>>35166125
Quit being a pussy
>going to the gym
Dips, chinups & pistol squats master race here
>>35166535
>i make no gains and use 'cocoon mode' as an excuse not to face my social anxiety

So do some bodyweight shit at home til you've got some meat on you.
Get a door wedge pull-up bar.
NOBODY REALLY CARES
>tfw you are one of the new guys from september
>skelly but overall proportionate physique from always doing sports
>be the only person without a phone or a music player
>never rest more than a minute
>some of the people sometimes do 10 minute pauses just sitting on their equipment checking their devices or taking pictures
>make gains like never before
>no one looks at me anyway
Perhaps it's just the new face that caught their eye and not your body. Eat more and squat.
>tfw see this all the time since our paper towels are next to the entrance
>The skinny dudes and really fat dudes look super nervous
No one really cares, and if they do, they probably admire you for working on your shit. There's this really fat guy at my gym and I didn't go for 2 months due to some family issues overseas, I came back and he had lost loads of weight. Just do you, senpai.

;_;
>>35166125
did anyone ask you for your 1 rep max?
>tfw dyel skellys stare at you
Guess i made it fäm
>>35166125
Nah man you aren't me.
>Joins Golds
>Go into the gym for the first time, 103lbs.
>First day there some butch lady gives me shit in front of everyone for taking her squat rack
>I tried re-racking weights for her but I couldn't even lift up the 45lbs pl8, she laughed
>Butch lady teased me for almost a year by dinging my car and giving me a stink eye
>Butch lady snitched on female manager and people made a fake drama about me and that almost got my ass kicked out
I have no idea why I stayed there for 3 years now but things are chill now.
It's not because you are a hungry skeleton OP. It's your dick. They can see the outline of your dick, and they find out hilariously little and cute.
Just remember this the next time you walk into the gym with your weanus peanus.
yep OP. i remember hearing people talk about me
>"did his arm buckle from a 20kg dumbbell"
yeah you have to suffer now to live rest of your life as a champion
they dont talk shit anymore
i think they worry (im 6'6 and getting wider every day)
>>35166125
In fact these meatheads are just as insecure as you.
I hope this helps.
>>35166125
Ah new people in the gym. People look at you because we all look at each other. That doesn't mean they're assessing and judging you in their heads, cos the reality is if they're doing their shit right they're not going to be able to focus enough for that sort of thing. Odds are they're looking around and counting or working out what's coming up next. Beyond noticing you're there and whether they know you or not they don't give a shit.
>>35166125
>one of the regulars gives me 'the nod' on my second visit despite not talking to him
clearly he knew i wasn't going to be one of those faggots who only goes for a week
>>35167093
what a cunt.At least you have a good physique now right cheekie?
>>35166962
Stay weak. I bet you've never been deadlifting. You cant deadlift heavy triples with a minute of rest.
>>35166962
When you're lifting heavy you rest around 3-8 minutes between sets m8. Longer than that if you're going for some serious deadlifts.
>>35167549
>>35167554
I'm weak for now. And you are certainly right about needing more time when it come to lifting really heavy.
I'm also looking into dealifts as the next exercice to incorporate into my routine.
But you are missing the point, which is that people are spending more time on their screens rather than concentrating on their lifts.
That feel when you step into the gym like you have every other day for the last year and it feels like coming home
>>35166125
>tfw you get called "big guy" or "big fella" but they're actually making fun of you because you're dyelmode
STOP IT
>>35166125
Unless you go to a very small out of the way gym people probably do not care, they probably forgot about you seconds later.
>>35168084
was getting ripped part of your plan?
2 things:
You're new, someone is going to notice
People actually don't give a fuck about you
Keep on
