why do you lift?
to pleasure women
I was bored and couldn't smoke weed due to new job
To get laid, and there's absolutely nothing wrong with that.
To while away the time until I meet my merciful end
Literally because I have no other meaningful hobbies.
I fully realise that it won't get me laid (2ugly), I don't give a fuck about anyone 'mirin' me, I got to the gym on monday mornings for fucks sake, I don't really care about being stronk or some other retarded manly shit. I do it because its easy, brainless activity, that rewards me with endorphin rush, which stops my crippling depression for a while

Hobbies are for unsuccessful people with too much time on their hands. They think if they do a bunch of random shit they'll seem more interesting. People maybe have one or two activities they do on a daily basis. "Oh, I love to garden, hike, play guitar, knit, do yoga" just fuck off already.
for the test boosts and strength. I don't give a fuck about aesthetics. You don't need to be zyzz to get laid
Whenever I come across this gif it crashes my phone
I am hugely insecure in my masculinity and have a bad inferiority complex, which started me lifting. Now I have raging body dysmorphia too.
My workouts are now powered mostly by c4 and self-loathing.

ac ouple years ago, i moved to a new state, i saw a black guy with a high test latina and i thought
>hm...
and then i saw a black guy witha high test white grill and then i thought
>hmmm....
and then i saw black guy with a fobby looking asian girl and then i thought
>hmm! now i see
want to know waht i realized? all of the black guys who are dating these fine ass hotties werent skinny little fuccbois. thats when i just mindlessly started lifting.
now i dont really think im ugly but fast forward a couple years after this realization, im still tfwnogf. im not really sweatin too hard tho, its w/e. i like fucking my hand anyone. fuck these hoes breh
I don't.
I do calisthenics for now. I'm too weak.
But I think I know why most people on /fit/ do it.
To gain confidence.
Why the fuck wouldn't I lift?
Because being strong is cool
when I first started it was for this girl, I had a really big crush on her and was extremely insecure about myself
now idk why I do it
To counter how much I eat desu
>>35633914
I know that feel
>>35634040
you must be fun to be around
I think the genuinely best reason to workout is to do something productive and better yourself. Be healthy and strong
But, I also think the reasons getting girls is a decent reason. I mean why not, we buy them drinks right, let's not be hypocritical
i ordered a new work shirt and it was too big for me so i autistically decided to start lifting instead of buying a smaller one.
now i'm in too deep and i can't stop.

thanks real helpful

read "Models" by Mark Manson. It's an interesting read because he promotes becoming an attractive person by inner growth and being at peace with yourself
>>35637151
>iq level over 9000
>>35637146
What a beautiful beast. I'm sorry for your loss, Anon.
>>35636275
>we buy them drinks right
no we don't. if you have to literally pay for a girls attention you are doing something wrong
>>35636185
This, lel. I love eating, working out gives me an excuse to consume ungodly amounts of food
>>35637160
>>35637180
>being this mad because he didn't comprehend my post
>>35637185
listen, all i wanted to know who that was so i can furiously fap to her later
>>35637209
You are asking source for a candid video. Guess what? Source is by definition not possible with candid videos.
>>35637209
not the other guy, but it's obviously just a creep shot
>>35637221
i could of sworn that was lia marie johnson
I started lifting so I could cosplay. I realized that all my favorite heroes and vidya characters are hulking hunks of man meat so I would need to become one in order to accurately portray them. I'm years away from this, but my dream is to cosplay as Kenshiro.
Also I'm really in to nerd girls, so maybe I kinda lift for them too.
Because I have depression and low self-esteem, and lifting helps.
>>35633853
For respect and strenght.
I was a fucking wuss, so if someone i used to know sees me lifting something heavy they are surprised, and i feel good with that
>>35637233
you started lifting because of a cartoon? lol
>>35637233
>>35637233
>Also I'm really in to nerd girls
When you say nerd girls, are you talking about pic related?
Or chicks with fake tits wearing a superman shirt?
>>35637242
who wouldnt do both desu senpai
>>35637242
The former
>>35637146
RIP Ernie the cat. I will remember him for you anon.
>>35637257
Good job
>>35637146
Sleep tight kitty, see you on the other side
>>35637242
You still need to lift for the real nerd girls
>>35637310

>>35637146
LMAO

2edgy4me
Because I want to give guys boners
>>35637376
I don't get how biking (in the city) can be a hobby for someone. If you have nice mountains or something around maybe. But for me it's just a mode of transport. It would be equally stupid to drive around in your car for a hobby
>>35637404
Post booty
>>35637404
Anon, pls.

i agree with that anon.
pretty sure that's her too, she has the beauty mark and same colored eyes and hair.
>>35637422
Yeah alright
>>35637423
/fit/ should have more cats on it
Cats are the best aminals
>>35637449
I'm still not convinced this isn't just some twink.
Post tits?
>>35637449
A cat for your effort. I'll show you a Ukrainian Rebel cat if you post titties.
>>35637449
Okay.
>>35637470
It's a twink.
>>35637477
>It's a twink.
Well that sucks
>>35637470
>>35637477
>>35637482
Hot chicks don't go on /fit/
>>35637475
I want that cat
>>35637488
Rebel cat anyways
>>35637488
assbro?
>>35637498
Thanks anon I don't have any cat pictures but if I did I'd give them to ya
>>35637488
That's always been pretty obvious, lel.
>>35633914
that picture is too accurate
Fear of diabetes. I may already have pre-diabetes or full on diabetes, I have to be checked. My father has had it as long as I remember and he looks like shit with plenty of abdominal fat.
My mother is old too, she's breaking bones pretty easily now and I want to strengthen my bones as much as I can while I still have the time. 2 years until I'm 30 and I want to have a body to be proud of.
I want to have a strong skeleton as I grow old so I can take care of myself until death and after death I want to be the strongest spookiest skeleton
>>35633853
so that when I meet a chick like in pic related, it'll only take me 10 min of talking to get her back to my place so I can plunge myself into that pussy
What made me start was seeing the character Dom Mazzetti present lifting in a humorous way, it really broke down the envy cloaked in anxiety which had stopped me from going earlier.
I will go today because the idea of being stronger next week than I am now is deeply gratifying.
I will keep going because as a young man with the means and the time I'm shooting myself in the foot not doing so, and every day I get one day closer to waking up with the physique I desire.
Oh, and I get to be better than other people.
maybe if i get /fit/ or make it my teenage crush will like me
>>35638470
>maybe if i get /fit/ or make it my teenage crush will like me
You can't make it with this mentality. Get fit and let it snowball you into a rampage of self-improvement and embrace your masculinity. Once you've begun to actualize your potential, then you will realize what it is like to be a man.
At this point, she will like you without a doubt, and if she doesn't, it won't matter because you'll have access to 100s of other bitches, and you won't even care anyway
>>35637153
this is the 342342nd time ive seen someone recommend ths book, i have to give it a read now.
>>35633853
Instant boner
I lift because I was weak and insecure and a virgin at 23, and I figured that eventhough I had an ugly head, I could at least try to compensate with a ripped 10/10 body
It kinda helped, I'm not shredded by far but gains are visible, I became more confident and I found a fwb where I lost some hangups about sex and thank God I lost my virginity. Somehow I also started to dress better, probably related to improved confidence.
Life is still the same, but better, and now I'm lifting to fuck 10/10 milfs and girls with dat booty.
