Repeat two more times.
Does anyone ever wonder what they would look like if they had consistently lifted for two years straight without huge gaps?
Is it literally all down to perseverance to make the difference?
Try again, but when you reach that point remember the regret.
There comes points where for a week or two straight you will want to give up. If you get past those phases it's not as much of a grind anymore.

Never gonna make it.
Nope because im not a faggot who is never going to make it
>>37633956
Will I eventually get used to it?
I love lifting but I keep making huge gaps because I'm busy or preoccupied with other shit and my sleep or nutrition is off.
>>37633922
I don't get how you get bored. Maybe just listen to music while you exercise?

>>37634020

>>37633922
Try switching up your routine when you start to feel bored brah

I feel your pain OP.
I've had problems with dysthymia/depression and it really has affected my progress.
I'll go to the gym for a few weeks, making very little progress because I can't stick to a program and also because it's not a long period of time, then stop when the depression gets worse. Then I binge energy drinks and soda because it makes me "happy" (pro-tip: it fucking doesn't) and lose that progress. I know it's all my fault and I'm on my own.
Things are getting better though, I'm drinking more water, cut out the soduh and have been taking St John's Wort for a week and noticed some slight improvements. What I'm trying to do now is identify the point where I sink into depression and somehow fight through it.

Just quit forever you weak willed pussy. What was your intention when you created this shit thread? To have someone here volunteer to drive you to the gym everyday? Nobody here can help you, fucking faggot.

I just wanted you guys to call me a weak, lazy piece of shit to motivate me.
>>37634281
if you need motivation to go the gym, all you're gonna do is quit again when that motivation goes away
you have to think about why you're going to the gym in the first place and if you really want to achieve those goals
>>37634311
I just need a little boost
Can you just call me a lazy piece of shit?
