You went too far anon, you hurt everyone's feelings...This is supposed to be a s-safe space.

QQ-Q-quit projecting OP
It's there to give you a meaning, a reason, a goal.
That is, to better yourself, and what more could you ask for?

>call my gym to reserve a bench for 6pm
>come to the gym at 6pm
>all benches are taken
mfw
>>36422621
You thought you could reserve benches at your gym?
It's not a hotel/restaurant, anon.
>>36422621
Had this today sorta
>filled the form to book the 20 kilo plates
>I have to upgrade my ownership
>fuck that
>have to book the 10 kilos instead
>>36422637
>you can't book benches or racks at his gym
Lol.. do you go to planet fitness or something? Sure you have to generally pay a bit more for gyms that allow it but it's definitely worth it
>>36422494
my poor muscles and skelington are trapped underneath all this ):

Why are his abs floating
>reserve something in the gym
>being mentally stable
actually i saw it yesterday here and just wanted to make a meme of it because its so fucking ridiculous to reserve a bench
>>36422645
pretty much happens every time i don't lift between 6 and 10 am.
>get hyped to move some big weight
>all squat stands/ power cages / benches are taken by groups of 2-5 dyels each
>have to wait around for like 20 minutes with my dick in my hand asking people how many sets they got left
>>36422878
sounds like you don't got enough gym-crd fampai. my bench usually waits for me decorated with one of those hotel chocolate bars.
>implying you can tell
I hide my power level well

>delude myself into thinking that having a good looking body will get people interested in me
>still so badly socialized that I don't have the vaguest idea of who'd be interested in me
>even if I got in a relationship I've got the combination of depression, fetishisim, relationship idealism, and lack of experience that would make me a horrible partner
it's probably better that I stay alone
I shouldn't burden another person with that stuff
>>36422979
you are retarded.
the best thing would be you stop being a pussy, force yourself to be social and endure all the humiliation/spaghetti/crash-and-burn moments it takes to stop being a faggot.
>b-but my character flaws
i could probably show you a billion assholes less deserving of some pussy that you.
>>36423025
you could be right, but I just feel like I'm so ineffective at independent socializing that it's just not worth trying.
I've been at my social best while drinking, but I don't drink much anymore because muh gains
>>36423129
of course it's worth trying. you will just have to face a lot of cring moments until you become effective.
i'm speaking from experience because i've been in your place (and probably even worse than you).
you get good at social shit by doing social shit, and then reflecting upon said social shit. read some stuff about sociology, psychology and maybe pua shit as a supplement.
people will think you're a weirdo for a while but that's alright.
if you consider yourself a hardcase, maybe take up a job in sales which adds a component of ''be social or go hungry'', which is 100% guaranteed to make you grow.
there are millions of things you can do to become more social. you just really have to force yourself to do it though.
>>36422797
fat gets stored behind your abs too
>>36422387
this is probably what people think of me at my gym...
I get tunnel vision at the gym and just stare straight ahead of me in between sets...I also barely respond to texts while working out...shit
If anyone is thinking about therapy- unless it's for something serious; don't.
That stuff stays on your permanent record and can ruin your employment prospects in ways you can't imagine.
Man up for the time being, don't be so quick to admit defeat.

is this a thing or just an autistic flight of fancy?

It's a thing, but you have to tip the receptionist girl

That's what happened to me, got my 1.5 mile time down to 8;20, 92 press-ups, and 80 sit-ups in 2 minutes.
Told everyone I was joining, and now when they ask about it and I reply "I was medically unsuitable"
It's the biggest kick in the dick ever.
7 months of my life down the shitter.
>>36423931
>>36424021
Are you guys joking? Does this mean that when they come for muh guns that I wont be able to buy any because at one point I was "depressed."
>tfw NY so it's pointless anyway

This. and be sure to compliment him on how hes looking thick, solid, tight.
thanks for the bad feels OP
I sometimes stare at myself in the mirror for 1-2 minutes when doing DB bench with a pretty empty expression, it's my way of focusing, I've noticed some people stare at me doing this.
They probably think i got some mental issues
>>36422964
20 minutes really isn't that long, just do some other shit and keep an eye on it.
>>36424081
I'm britbong, so I've got double fucking no chance mega bonus of ever dreaming of getting a bolt-action license now.
All I want in life is to shoot stuff and drive fast.
>>36424081
I meant to add, I've got no idea towards the specifics to each state, but I know over here anything like that is a massive red-flag.
you really shouldn't be depressed between sets familia, are you resting for like 10 minutes?
>>36423753
But what are the abs attached to
>>36422554
No more tripfags

Stop forcing this meme. It's not going to happen.
>>36422683

Come to America, britbong. And by America, I mean the South. You can drive a tank here, while shooting an Browning.
And also other freedoms too.
But you have to give us secret of inexpensive medical care. I don't care if I pay for it directly or through taxes, American medical care is much higher than everywhere else in the world.

>>36424407
Think about what you're doing during those two exercises. Pulling a robe towards your face and pulling yourself off the ground. You're simulating hanging yourself, senpai.
Lat pulldowns and rear delt raises for life.

Diagnosed PTSD. My experience is:
>Stop going to counseling for a few weeks, feel fine. May be slightly more irritable, might seem like an asshole to people.
>Stop going to the gym for a few weeks, fall into deep depression and stay in bed until 4pm, don't talk to anyone.
So uhh, yea. Lifting has been a bigger help in my life so far. Everyone is different, dude.
