What is your biggest weakness /fit/?
Not being able to realize when to let go.
Overdoing it. I tear muscles all the time and it puts me out of the gym for weeks but I never learn and a few months later I tear something again.
In general, I have a tendency to tear myself down internally and procrastinate.
In relation to fitness, I have a very all-or-nothing attitude and can get discouraged or take dieting and exercise too far.
Binge eating disorder and depression
Focusing too much on one thing too much.

>What is your biggest weakness /fit/?
My bench press. I get this fucked up sharp pain on the outside of one of my shoulders when I try to push myself.
Besides just having slow gains, squats. Back squats are way too uncomfortable for me. I can only go parallel if I do front squats.
A-atleast they build quads, right?
>>36988300
atleast you gonna be good at olympic lifts
Low self esteem.
No matter how much effort I put into it, I'll never be worth it.
>>36988452
Deadlifts.
It seems no matter how good my form is or how low the weight is, my lower back still hurts.
>>36988236
Lower the fucking bar further down.
If the bar doesn't touch the nipples, you are way up high
>>36987485
I hold grudges and push people away. I could surround myself with better people but I don't, Instead I migrate towards shitty, broken people so that I can feel better about myself and bitch about them behind their back.
I cant focus on one thing at a time. I tend to half ass multiple things. Okay/good at a lot, master of fuck all.
With fitness I have a tendancy to injure myself. I had a lower back injury for months that wouldn't heal until I saw the physio. She told me I was sitting weird (right foot under left thigh). And my squat form was slightly odd (i fucking copied medhi how could it be odd?!), my knees should be facing forward more she said. Anyways I listened to her and stopped doing that shit, back is like 50% healed a week later, squatting again feels fantastic.
my work is very physical at times and I dont co orinate my workouts with my work responsibilities, I still made progress in this last month even though people have picked at me for showing my body off in pride of my achievements, the same people who will call me names but are not trying to better themselves physically or mentally.
I only show my body publicly because I told people I wanted to change , the pressure of an audience made me push harder, im not proud I just know Im going in the right direction and want to prove people who said I couldn't wrong.

Dis...dis is me.
>>36987796
Holy shit are you me?
>>36987485
Emotions tbqh.
I've noticed that every time life gets me pissed off or frustrated I break for the junk food.
Which fucks up a cut pretty bad, but hey I've still lost 15 lbs
This constant feeling of lethargy. Even stims don't help. I collapsed in the gym twice and just stopped going. I can't afford insurance and so the tests to figure it out would be several thousand dollars.
Being myself. It's a tough one to overcome, but I'm trying real hard.
>>36988641
You're gonna make it brah
>>36988496
This. Fuck deadlifts.
>>36988904
Literally me. When I'm able to isolate myself from emotional problems, my lifts and cut progress fucking flawlessly, but it all goes to shit the second a bump shows up in the road.
>>36987485
chocolate chip cookies :( its like crack..
>>36987485
Impatience
Goldfish.
I ate that shit so much as a snack growing up that it's like crack to me even as an adult.
>>36988672
I did the same thing last week. Had a decent meal (fish pie) and then whipped out the vanilla ice cream and mixed in a fuck ton of broken biscuits.
So good but so fattening. Anyway, you can burn it off, just like cut and shit man. It's only a fuck up if you don't burn it off again.
A paralyzing combination of laziness and pride.
Fucking triceps. How do i into triceps gains? I started lifting 6 months ago and doubled/trippled/etc my weight in all excersises but triceps, where im on the same weight i started
>>36989464
Volume, nigga.
OHP
I have an extremely hard time making any gains
I sprained my fucking shoulder doing 80lbs on the last rep of my 4th set of 5
>>36989464
Same thing here except biceps. My are starting to look unbalanced because my bis can't keep up with my tris. I always Burnout fast on curls it seems
>>36988904
This. Emotional or stress eating.
>>36988496
desu senpai, I stopped deadlifts and I did slow back extensions for a couple months and it helped a lot. Dunno if it'll help you or not. Hope so.
>>36989464
lying triceps extensions. the way rippetoe teaches them

make sure to prevent your elbows from flaring out
3 sets of challenging 8-10 reps 2-3 times a week
thank me in 3 months
Vaporwave.
>>36987485
Pornography. My social life is shit, my gains are shit, and my romantic life is nonexistent.
My life is in pieces and I'm trying to pick up what's left,

>>36990233
Thank you, I figured I wasn't the only one with this problem, but it's still nice to see people with similar issues come out of the woodwork.
Cookies and pizza are my absolute worst go-to foods.
Doing a half-ass workout in the interest of being done faster.
>>36987485
Texas heat
>>36987485
seeing people in worse shape than me with a girl
normally I dont care but that kills me inside a little bit
>>36987796
You are basically me. Trying for "all" right now after months of "nothing".
>>36990377
Worry about your goddamn self. Don't be a little beta bitch crying that nobody likes you.
It'll happen in due time.
>>36987485
anal and chocolate cake
>>36990442
I mean, it makes me think a lot
like "if this fat piece of shit can get a girl, why cant I? is something wrong with me?"
idk, I overanalyze stuff too much sometimes
>>36990377
It's almost as if women didn't exclusively care about your body in order to date lmaooooo
>>36990472
Bro. Think about your logic here. Then realize that your lack of ability to impress the opposite sex isn't because you're not strong enough. It's because your lack of confidence, low respect for yourself, and low respect for others is soooo goddamn unflattering.
Accept others and let them go live their lives. Who fucking cares? Accept yourself and keep lifting because you enjoy fitness.
The girl or girls will get there when they get there.
>>36990612
but what am I supposed to do?
im not the type to just hit on random girls, thats just not my persona: I can talk with anyone I just dont care for PUA type stuff.
>>36990659
Worry about you. It'll happen if you just focus on yourself. Strive to keep improving and expanding as you hit your own personal goals.
Eventually some women will recognise you and your hard work and they'll want to attach themselves to you.
But until then, be nice and pick up heavy shit.
>>36990780
yeah, I figure I cant force people to like me (not that im a dick, im not)
but I can make myself look better, which will make things easier
>>36990828
Maybe improving you outlook on life and people would help too. Why stop at diet and exercise?
>>36988672
Fucking shit brah
On an unrelated note I'm on day 486 of my MFP streak
Overthinking of over analyzing everything. it keeps me up at night
>>36987485
cookies, holy shit. i can put in the work no problem, exercise almost everyday. but if there are cookies, i will eat them.
to a lesser extent, some tight-shortened muscles i have to work on.
Pasta and cheeses
> mfw getting into Italian/French cooking
Not gonna make it, family
>>36990867
This. Cocoon mode is retarded. Sure, focus on one goal at a time, but you can't spend 24/7 getting ripped. Work on other stuff too.
>>36990867
I dont train for girls, I try to learn stuff outside the gym too: but ive always been shy/quiet so I guess I need to make some social gains as well. im just not used to approaching random people.
Smoking.
>>36987485
The Ganja. Whenever i smoke, i cascade into breaking macros and drinking. Been off it for months but so many of my friends do it. It sucks also because my brother is a massive stoner and it means I can't hangout with him. I hate the shit.
>>36987485
Having a child.
Until he's old enough to start hitting the gym with Me, I'm pretty fucked on that.
>>36988172
same
>>36991201
I'm fucking terrified to ever have children.
Anything homemade and pacing myself is my biggest obstacle but, I'm losing fat and gaining muscle. So it's progress I guess.
>>36988672
>Eating Bologna
Disgusting
>>36988512
Surely you can hangout with 'better' people, but are you sure you don't belong with broken people?
