>tfw nice rewarding cig or two after heavy lifts
How do you reward yourself?
>>37791110
Cheat days, several times a week. Then bitching about why I can't lose weight on social media and getting consoled by toxic "friends" who validate my and their own unhealthy lifestyles with things like "you can't lose weight because your like me, our genetics aren't meant for it".
Some nice warm n cheesy garlic bread
Smoking will kill you.. Not even memeing I know I sound like a God damn TV ad but I'm serious.
I dont really want a reward after working out, I feel pretty good enough afterwards as is.
>>37791110
I do a 540 on my way out the gym and reward myself with a couple more deadlifts.
>>37791158
Some people say theres a release of dopamine after a workout, but honestly all i can feel is relief that its over
BEER. always, a cold pale ale, i lounge in a chair at my health club by the pool, with my pump. i order a barbeque bacon burger w/ curly fries, and i scope out the milfs. because there aren't any girls there my own age. but some of those milfs...
really makes you think...
>>37791179
..if they have high test daughters
>>37791110
>A good workout is its own reward
Really though I reward myself if I'm particulately worn out by smoking some dank
>>37791110
as i am currently using leangains to cut, my one fun meal is the bigass one right after the workout
>>37791212
If you hangout with friends and smoke before the gym, how do you regain motivation? This is actually the only thing getting in my way
>>37791110
Workouts reward me by giving me dat dere exercise high
>>37791110
mouth fedora. nice.
>>37791178
I get really horny and I start talking up chicks. I feel dom as fuck after I lift and I just want to grab ass and yank hair.
>>37791110
>how do you reward yourself
I'm not a dog. pursuing my goals is its own reward.
Lifting is the reward. I like it a lot.

Hello tobacco industry shill
>>37791237
Here's a fucking clue, don't smoke a depressant right before lifting. Just smoke afterwards, much better
>>37791110
By lifting weights.
>>37791237
I only try to do it on rest days or after a workout, personally
But c4 can get my ass in gear if ive been sober an hour or two
>>37791110
muh postworkout snack or a meal, depending on the time of day

Nicotine is a stimulant though
>>37792361
>tfw smoking 75 cigarettes a day
anyone here managed to quit smoking?
I've done most drugs out there and the only thing I got hooked is tobacco. Funcking cancer sticks don't even get you high yet are so addictive
>>37791110
why do you even bother getting /fit/ if you smoke?

Some of the oldest people on earth have been lifelong smokers including the record-holder. Stop believing everything you see on TV moronic sheep.
>>37791110
>I did something good today, better reward myself by destroying my lungs
Does this make sense to you?
>>37793549
>some
and hundreds of studies have suggested the polar opposite. Stop believing every story your weird uncle tells you
>>37793515
I quit heroin weed and alcohol and I still can't drop the cigs or caffeine its so much worse :(
>>37793584
ONE OF THESE THINGS IS NOT LIKE THE OTHER
>>37793549
Anecdotal evidence doesn't change the fact that the average smoker lives 10 years less than the average non smoker.
>>37791110
My reward is that I get stronger.
>>37793549
My 90 year old grandpa has smoked cigars and drank since his 20s, never exerices and is at least 50lbs overweight. Am I a big enough dummy to think that these things aren't harmful to your health? Of course not. Some people get lucky, most do not.
>>37793521
They do give you a high and numbing feeling, although gradual it's like a mini high therefore makes it more addictive imo
>>37793571
Actually, he's not wrong, plenty of smokers don't see life threatening damage from smoking.
The reason, however, is a simple one.
Lung cancer and throat cancer are the most fatal diseases that could result from smoking.
Lung and throat, like all cancers, will appear only in individuals with the appropriate genetic markers. While smoking is a habit-forming, repetitive behaviour and if you're vulnerable to those cancers, and a habitual smoker, you'll almost certainly get them.
If you're not, however, smoking will only result in other, less fatal health problems.
In this way, there are several old smokers with a lifetime of smoking behind them, but there are also many, many more who are taking a fatal risk by smoking.
>>37793515
I did, smoked for 8 years. Decided to quit, used those vapers for 3 months and then stopped that too.
Haven't touched a cigarette in over 2 years now, the craving goes away after a few months.
Honestly if you can make it through the first week, you have good chances of kicking off the habit.
>>37791110
There's some sonofabitch "personal trainer" with "tribal" tatts and both nips pierced who goes to his car between clients and sucks down 2 - 3 cancer sticks.
Why is this a problem ? because the parking lot is adjacent to the alley where we flip truck tires, do farmers walk, push the Prowler, etc...
A gorgeous Sunny day and nipple boy has to light up.
>makes me wanna puke
I usually reward myself by jacking off
>>37793651
smoking is more likely to cause heart disease anyway than cancer, and that can kill you a lot quicker
>>37793865
Smoking alone does not typically cause heart disease, but smoking with other associated behaviours can lead to severe heart disease, you're right.
>>37793549
You must be American. How fucking stupid do you have to be to think that sucking on burning tar isn't bad for you?
I'd say kill yourself but you already are
>How do you reward yourself?
I don't. What the fuck is this pussy bullshit where doing what is expected requires a reward.
>>37791110
smoking is for plebs

Who needs cheat things if your body already tell you that you did nicely for it?
>>37793515
I quit, ive quite before for 5 years and they keybis to chew gum and stay away from people that smoke if possible. Just been liitle over 2 months since my last smoke, no cravings

Seriously though snus can help you smokers quit or switch.
>>37794876
Nah just easier to regulate dosage, less spitting required and more purified than redneck candy.
>>37794258
This. Just got a nice stack of General Extra Strong's, feels good man
>>37794258
this is even more gross than smoking and everyone who sees you doing it thinks you're a disgusting pig
>>37791110
>cig
>reward
I guess if you consider getting a fix of a harmful drug you're addicted to in order to alleviate withdrawal symptoms a reward. Sounds asinine to me.
>>37795115
Here in Finland it's seen as a massive turn-on. All the girls and boys from 12yo and up and old people use it all the time.
>>37795115
wew lad. you have no clue. smoking is disgusting smelly and is bad for you
>>37795177
you got cucked by eu tho.
>>37795247
The EU cucked every single member state. Fuck those wankers
>>37795269
not sweden we still have our snus
>>37795536
Pfft, you must be joking.
Sweden is eternally cucked, you have the largest margin of given contribution/received money in the EU. They're literally sucking massive amounts of wealth out of your multicultural shithole. You're being utterly taken advantage of

>>37791237
you have to personally want to lift. you will be more focused on the lifting than the social dynamic of it all.
get yourself in a state of mind where you are out for yourself, first. because you are the one that allows yourself the amount of freedom which you have in this situation and it's environments.
hold onto who you are as an individual before identifying yourself with a pack.
there is no need for distraction. just simply get blazed and lift.
>>37792461
that is what you prefer. obviously the high is a different experience, which i enjoy more as well. but the idea that they have to adopt to your particular ideals when dealing with these rituals, is just preposterous.
>>37794233
this. but we can view anything as a reward, or more satisfactory in spite or because of working out. such as simply resting.
>>37793535
Weed isn't a depressant. Its physical effects include increased bodily functions, which would make it a stimulant. However, it slows down your mental abilities, which would make it a depressant. Weed isn't either one of those, it's a mix of them.
I wouldn't condone smoking it before working out, as your heart works twice as fast as usual. Secondly, you wont feel good after working out as you're coming down from the high. You'll just feel confused and tired.
>>37795177
It's white trashy as fuck senpai. Move away from Kouvola desu senpai.

tl;dr
>I wouldn't condone smoking it before working out, as your heart works twice as fast as usual.
implying smoking bud makes "your" heart beat rapidly, or twice as fast as usual. makes me wonder if bud makes (You)r heart beat rapidly. just focus on your breathing and your body will relax, buddy.
>Secondly, you wont feel good after working out as you're coming down from the high. You'll just feel confused and tired.
weak lies. must be 15 and a lightweight that picks up mainly schwagg.
>>37795788
>implying smoking bud makes "your" heart beat rapidly, or twice as fast as usual. makes me wonder if bud makes (You)r heart beat rapidly. just focus on your breathing and your body will relax, buddy.
Holy shit, what? There is absolutely no man of science claiming that weed doesn't affect your heart rate. I personally go from my normal 80 to 115, and for most people the change is somewhere around those numbers too.
>weak lies. must be 15 and a lightweight that picks up mainly schwagg.
Pfft, don't get me started. It's probably your weak ass hits so you don't get high at all.
>>37795680
No you dont outrun a dog,stop lying you fucking pleb.
>>37791158
I always have a cig in my mouth when I do squats and deads
>>37795830
>Holy shit, what? There is absolutely no man of science claiming that weed doesn't affect your heart rate.
i didn't say it didn't.
see
>>37795788
>I personally go from my normal 80 to 115, and for most people the change is somewhere around those numbers too.
you said it doubles your shit than usual.
if your normal is at 80 then you need to go to the doctor i don't care what age you are.
the change is also different for everyone. from 80 to 115 is a hell of a change just from smoking some weed.
i don't even see a clear point because your calculations have been inaccurate. are you trying to convince yourself that you are normal?
>>37791110
A good fap

the average small to medium dog can be outrun by any able-ed man who runs regularly. they really aren't that fast and neither am i. it's simply a measurement.
>>37795867
"Double" is not an accurate scientifical term. I was merely trying to make the point that weed does raise the heart rate significantly, and coupling that with weight lifting is really not a good idea.
Stop being fucking autistic.

Humans have extremely efficient bodies for running prolonged distances, its actually a quite reasonable accomplishment after some training.

>Stop being fucking autistic.
you specifically stated in your first post false information. you didn't even dance around the idea on a spectrum. your system failed from the jump. the only way i could get you to understand this is if we did exactly this. if you are still in denial then i strongly suggest you read books more.
>>37795977
In denial of what, you mongrel? This is a fucking imageboard, I reply fast and vaguely, so one could get the general idea. Which is that
>weed does raise the heart rate significantly, and coupling that with weight lifting is really not a good idea
Go to some science forum then or whatever, if you honestly feel the need to correct such menial shit. Anyone would understand perfectly what my point was, including you, but you decided to waste your time correcting something fucking meaningless.

>>37795950
Yes, this I've heard a few times. Actually, now that I think about it, I've had some delical effects, such as any noise turning into any music if I think about it enough.
>>37796016
>you decided to waste your time correcting something fucking meaningless.
which brings us to the last phase where you have agreed with the argument.
>>37796075
...wasn't it obvious all along that I agreed? This is a thread about self-given rewards, it's nothing technical or scientifical. We're not even having an argument, you just decided to sperg out about shit. Keep your debating skills where you need them, this thread is defitinitely not the place. Only autists cling onto stuff like that.
I'm pretty good when it comes to evaluating people, and I'd be willing to bet that you don't have many friends.
>>37792050
This.
The feeling lasts like 10 hours too.
It's great.

Lifting is the fun part, now cardio that's something else, but that is why I only ride muh bike for cardio
