Been waiting for this for a long time.

Congrats bro!
>no one posts
Is everyone on /fit/ depressed or something?
>tfw can't even do an unweighted deadlift
I'm jelly OP
I had consensual sex with a girl.
Then realized I fucking hate my body because I took 4 days off and went to the gym. My lifts increased.
almost hit 1pl8 while being on the flu, hopefully i'll be able to hit it once i recover
>last rep on the last set
LORD FORGIVE ME FOR THESE GAINS
>>36529001
Keep at it. Remember to challenge your body and eat enough and get sleep.
>>36529001
You'll get there
I remember when I first managed to press 1pl8. It was right next to this guy who was doing sub 1pl8 squats.
He didn't even hit depth kek.
>>36528991
Yeah pretty much
>>36528991
I've been off the gym for two weeks now. Feel like a piece of shit.
Didn't miss a single workout for 8 months before tho.

>tfw finally seeing abs as a former fatty
The myths were not but words of truth awaiting realization.
Started my cut last week
Never been happier, eating 3300 calories a day really took a toll on me, i was starting to HATE eating.
Now if only my exams and my love life can get on the same page of my gainz journey i would be pretty much set.
Why do i chase a girl who isn't interested in me while i could fuck another one who'd kill to get this D?
>>36528836
Down to 285 from 430 - I've come a long way, still have a long way to go.
Finally figured out how to squat yesterday, gonna give it a go with my 5RM today - here's hoping it goes well boys.
Still shook up over some girl, but I know that I need to keep going.

Looking forward to my cut too, 3500/day is a bitch
I haven't been at/under 200 lbs since I was in high school, most was 230 but I'm only 5 lbs away from 200. So close I can feel it.

low appetite crew checking in
dieting down feels like no effort at all though
Just squatted 1pl8 for 3 reps after 2 years of lifting

BIG FAT CAT TATS a best
Recovering fatass here, just weighed in yesterday at 276lbs at 30% body fat. Was 330 last year at 50%. This is the first time Ive been under 280 since I was 17, im 23 now.
We're gonna make it, bros!
>skinnyfat as fuck
>bulk for 2 months
>arms, legs, lats all as big and hard like never before

>Lower day
>Volume day on squats and deadlifts
>Wearing my belt
>Glute pump
>Walking past qts with my jiggly butt and catch them mirin in the mirror
>>36528836
Fuck yeah man keep it up
>starting to get mires
>holy shit, this is finally happening
>it's not like I really want to talk to these bitches anyway
>keep lifting heavier and heavier
I hit the one year of lifting mark in April, I cannot wait for the next year.
Had a good shit today.

>Volume day on squats and deadlifts
>Wearing my belt
thought it was volume day?

My lower back was fatigued on the last sets so I decided to be careful and not risk injury.
The weather was nice today so I could wear my dress.
>>36530901
I haven't shit in like 2. Waiting on that sweet release.
>cutting
>a bit over a month in already feel much better even though the weight loss isn't that apparent (~6lbs)
I won't make it in time for summer but I should be good by August. I won't be built at best I'll be escaped DYEL.
That's what you get for bulking while fat. I said fuck it I'm done with bulking after anons told me to cut. I gotta cut down because I'm not getting anywhere.

Muh man. We were born to be lean
>>36528836
Why is press so hard to progress on?
>>36529001
you mean just the bar?
>>36531222
Uses small fucking muscles and not a lot of them.
Microloading and eventually variations (push press/DB press) are a key to progress in it, but OHP (at least to me) is rewarding as no other lift is.
>>36531242
No I get in a deadlift stance with my arms hanging down as if I were grabbing a bar. I can't complete a rep
finally achieved to do 8 pullups in a row, looking forward 8/8/8 and when i get there i'll start putting weights
>>36528836
and soon you will have the same feeling again, but it will be 2 plates. we were born for this anon
3 plates diddy lift and 12 strict pull ups so pretty cool
>>36531349
Sounds like a serious lack of mobility. Or are you saying you can't even raison your own body ? Are you disabled per any chance ?
>>36531336
>most rewarding lift
totally agree, it makes you feel like dimitry klokov
>>36529980
>girl looked my way smiling slightly
>though she was mirin
>was probarbly looking at my funny t-shirt
Oh well, seeing a pretty girl smile vaguely in my direction rather than flinching is nice.
