what is your excuse for not lifting for your mental and physical health?
autism and suicidal tendencies
Going to a gym requires effort
You WILL be mocked by people on their phones taking pics of you (if you are weak or a fatass)
Its a useless waste of time for the vain and insecure, and ofcourse, gay men. If youre doing it for the health benefits, youre an idiot, do cardio instead.
>>26624777
gym is for homosexual brainless son of bitches
a real PIMP buy gy machines and work out in home because he dont need to make things in front of other brainless people
ELLIOT IS OUR GOD
ALL GLORY TO ELLIOT
>>26624806
>You WILL be mocked by people on their phones taking pics of you (if you are weak or a fatass)
you will be mocked regardless, except you wont even lose any weight or become healthier sitting at home.
>>26624806
this is complete bullshit. Most people at the gym are chill, I have never heard of chad bros bulling skinny kids at the gym. Lots of endorphones flowing = good will towards mankind.
I'm not interested in roasties.
>>26624814
>Its a useless waste of time
yet robots play thousands of hours of video games
>>26624806
I'm a skinny bastard and I'm always the one making fun of juiceheads at the gym
Don't most community centers have a free one? I am sure there aren't 10 full weight sets ann shit and you will have to wait your turn more but it's free...
I bought a set of dumbells and I think I can use those to gain muscle. The bigger issue is buying and eating all the protein I need.
Because lifting won't make your face or any better

I work out 30 minutes 3 times a week in my room with some cheap dumbbells and a pull-up bar and see good progress.

Takes to much effort (I'm an ectomorph so this is incredibly true) and gymfags are annoying.
>Lifting
>For mental health
Let's see you explain this one.
>>26624777
>lifting
>mental health
ever been to /fit/? Not saying that lifting precludes good mental health, but it most certainly does not promote it.
utter apathy
>>26624777
>what is your excuse for not lifting for your mental and physical health?
i'm a lazy piece of shit
Im too smart for it. I realize that what the actual objective reality of the situation is that I am lifting something and then setting it down, allowing my muscles to tear and slowly callous over to become larger and more dense.
Its a useless exercise (and the pun is not intended, as puns are a shallow and banal form of humor) for someone like me, who realizes how much of society tries to program us to follow base animalistic behaviors like preening or signaling.
Id arther live a more enlightened life. I listen to podcasts and play video games that are steps towards a simulation that we will be able to download our conciousnesses into (such as what was shown in SOMA).
But by all means, make sure your muscles are large and that you eat plenty of Health Food (TM): its "your" decision to do so, isn't it?
>>26625581
All those people are on steroids.
Its a waste of energy.
>>26624806
never heard of that EVER happening, but even if it did so what? if homeboy is taking pictures of strangers at the gym, he's obviously dealing with his own insecurities
I find lifting repetitive and boring as fuck.
Sure I won't look like one of the pretty boys in the magazines with the martial arts I do but they are enough to keep me healthy and fit.
>>26627853
holy moly you sound lame. i've met average gymbros much smarter and more interesting than you
Because I cut down trees and chop logs out in the open even when weather conditions are against me, way more practical use of my time and builds character than just moving an object up and down in some sterile room and actually paying money for it.
>>26627853
This has got to be pasta
>>26628663
how hueg are your shoulders? i've seriously been considering a woodcutting-based workout regimen

Started lifting last fall. Injured my back. Can't lift any more until I finish physical therapy.
>>26626219
Shows you're genetically inferior, makes you look stupid for having something covering your face, ass of jokes, easy to just break someones glasses, having to pay for them, etc. etc.

I hit the resistance machines earlier this week to get rolling and strange places I didn't know I had still hurt senpai.

Not as huge as you would expect, but its given a lot of good back and torso muscle too from the weight of the swing, a heavy axe is your best friend
>>26624890
Then do it for your future qt gf... I am sure she will appreciate it
Tall guys don't have to and still are considered attractive. Why should I? And don't say "hurr bcuz ur not tall" as it's something I didn't choose.

Being a low bodyfat certainly does. Lifting increases test and HGH so I'm sure it has some effect on your face.
>>26626321

>>26628646
you could be way more effective at martial arts if you lifted.
agoraphobia and not having space in my room for a home gym due to all the other shit there
>>26629826
what does that even mean?
This comment is original. Fuck you.
>>26624777
Sick trips btw
Because distance running is much better, and lifting will just make you fat when you are >30, plus doing the two at the same time is retarded.
>>26629917
if you're gonna be a cardiofag at least do swimming and get ottermode

Fucking retard
>>26624777
I lift 4 days a week though.
>>26630038
I agree, running is for fucking nerds, if you swim you don't sweat and stink like ass.
>>26630038
not him butI can't swim though
believe me when I say going to the gym solves nothing
wished a girl looked at me like that. maybe in my next life
>>26624777
i do tho
I wouldn't even know where to start. I have no clue on form, routine or the amount of calories to eat. I am extremely skinny and weak, so I'd have to start out at the lowest possible weight, and I imagine it'd be quite embarrassing. That combined with a complete lack of motivation. If I had a personal trainer, I would do it but I'm really poor.
i just keep my core strength and get energy by doing simple excersizes/stretches in my room, takes 30 minutes of my whole day, no weights needed.
who cares about impressing some whores
>>26625581
First guy still looks fat with those hips.
>>26624777
If I can ever get glares from girls like that gif, I'd throw all my money and energy into it
>>26624777
Because I like having a soft squishy body perfect for cuddlingplus dancing is more fun than lifting
>>26630473
go on /fit/. read sticky. everyone is embarrassed their first time, until you realize 99% of people there don't give a fuck and if one does they're a tryhard.
>>26624806
alot of gyms will kick you out if you do that to other members. its a fucking business they are running. they dont want customers to feel like shit.
>>26630129
not him, but I tried it and experienced none of that. Seeing yourself improve through effort can easily just do nothing for your mental state when you're depressed. I lost fat and gained muscle and endurance and didn't feel better at all. I saw a physically better me in the mirror and thought "Why'd I bother? What does it matter? Everything was pointless before, and everything's still pointless now".
>>26630610
i hate how people, especially fat women, think one of the positive things about being fat is that you're "soft and squishy". new's flash, muscle is only tense if you flex it, otherwise it is also soft and squishy. except it doesn't have that disgusting loose feeling that fat does when you grab ahold of it. muscle always feels nicer.
>>26630288
And lifting is for future heart attack victims, but really swimmers do smell like absolute shit have you ever been near one after laps?
>>26630819
>implying I'm fat
>implying dancing isn't exercise and I don't do a shit load of it
seriously the lifting meme needs to stop, no one cares
>disgusting loose feeling
ooo, that's the good kind. the smaller and cuter they are the better too
>>26629468
this.
it's not even about being tall, it's all about having an attractive face. zyzz and matt sieds are popular with the girls mostly because of their face and then thier height AND THEN thier body.
you guys really need to stop pushing the gym meme. it hurts wheb you've been lifting for years only to find out because of your height and face, nothing will change.
>>26630129
>So many memes in one post.
Nice trips though.
>>26630929
>be a man
>roleplay and get off on people confusing you for a woman
>>26630929
>seriously the lifting meme needs to stop, no one cares
uh the thousands that pour in and out of my university's gym sure do.
You're just a chubby faggot who thinks he can dance. I bet I could bench you.
For aesthetics, I'd rather learn to swim.
I am. I can't wait to show off myself and impress with my personality. I'm not that far yet but today I did 30km on my exercise bike. Which is pretty good for a ~110kg nerd who hasn't had physical activity aside from walking in the last 2 years. I think so atleast. I have no real reference.
>>26627853
>lifting makes your muscles calloused and dense
>I'm too smart
>>26631094
Literally what
>>26631108
>lifting is the end all be all for exercise and being happy
It's not. Gyms are just convenient and an easy option.
>I bet I could bench you
Again, no one cares
Why are people interpreting op as asking you to lift?
>>26625320
ya its not so much the lifting that gets me. I feel like i need to be nutritionist to do it properly. I mean do you naturally crave food when your lifting or do you have to force feed yourself. Ive hear chicken breast, rice and oats is really all you need.
>>26631272
Soo you can't just eat meats? I don't see just see how massive your gains can be that protein intake is a problem. Not that I know anything.
I do, but it doesn't mean much since I'm short and have shitty genetics.
the face she pulls in OP's gif... fuck man. wish a girl would pull that face at me.
>>26631407
Just bee yourself anon. You just gotta bee yourself.
>>26631407
even if a girl likes you she'll start bitching and nagging shortly after you get comfortable with her
>>26631407
thats a fake reaction. she's acting
>>26624777
my excuse is the simple fact that her reactions didn't come from his body, but from how emotional he was getting while talking about how much he loves his wife and how he was dedicating his success to his mother who was of failing health.
the reason the interviewer was soaking was because of female preselection bias and emotional appeal, not because he repeatedly lifts heavy things and puts them down.
>>26631254
>lifting is the end all be all for exercise and being happy
Lifting compliments every form of exercise.
>no one cares
you did enough to respond
you need to buy personal trainer so you wont waste 15 years of your life going through library of bad info, not going anywhere&ruining your body.
personal trainer costs 1500dickdollars/europoors / 6 months. 3000 for a year.
plus the training food+supplements which is atleast same(3000-6000) per year if not more, so you need 6-10k in total at bank first to surely have the money.
after first year you dont need personal trainer anymore, since you have sucked all the info like a sponge, then it gets cheaper. but progress also gets slower. but with personal trainer, youd be fuckable in a year. bank money up first to do it right&safe&optimally from the first second with personal trainer.
>>26632058
those traps look unreal
>>26632058
Dammit Anon. I came to /r9k/ to feel not to fap.

Too time consuming. I do bodyweight exercises and cardio.
>>26624806

>>26632058
Full fuking bs, I just did ss with more chest and I was intermediate on symmetrical strength in 9 months
In terms of diet just carb up before work out and protein heavy + powder post workout
It's not rocket science
>>26624777
weak jaw and chin, i will never look attractive even if im ripped
>>26632905
most autistic post i've seen all year, was that from /fit/?
>>26625618
its a good logic though, why should I waste time playing a rigged game I cant win? fuck that
>>26625581
Half the guys dont even look bad and the other half have autistic haircuts and/or glasses
There's no point unless you have ALPHA GENETICS.
You know why Zyzz looked so good?
ALPHA GENETICS.
His insertion points were UNREAL. It's EXTREMELY rare to have the kind of muscular shape he did - that slim waist, those wide shoulders, those narrow hips, that height?! GENETICS. Uncontrollable, unchangeable, set in stone genetics.
Sure you can go to the gym and lift hard. Sure you can bulk up 50lbs. Maybe you'll even get on gear and build some muscle. But you'll NEVER look like Zyzz.
Why? Because you have INFERIOR GENETICS. You can get bigger biceps, you can build a larger chest, you can get huge quads - you can make yourself look slightly better, but you will NEVER have a body girls will drool over.
"B-but Zyzz used to be beta!" NO, he used to be a TEENAGER. Of course he looked beta in those fucking before photos, he was about 15. He hadn't had time for his broad shoulders to develop yet, so naturally he looked like any skinny beta. But once he went through puberty, the truth became clear. Why? Because the things that attract women are GENETIC. It makes sense - attraction is based off GENETICALLY good traits. These are things like height, a symmetrical face, a big dick, and a good shoulder to hip ratio. All of these things are pretty much unchangeable. They can be improved slightly, but not significantly enough for most of you to "make it brah".
And as for "autism", complete bullshit. Chad can be the biggest shy sperglord and girls will ADORE him because of his LOOKS, they'll just think he's "mysterious". Fucking LOL at thinking game even exists.
>>26633419
>And as for "autism", complete bullshit. Chad can be the biggest shy sperglord and girls will ADORE him because of his LOOKS, they'll just think he's "mysterious". Fucking LOL at thinking game even exists.
The thing he had in his personality (not talking here about any other genetic traits he may have had) was internal motivation. That's the key to both getting big and to getting girls, autism or no, and if you don't have it then you'll have neither.
>>26633419
Lmao, you're a fucking retard senpai
>>26633378
Tell me, what's not an autistic haircut?
>>26624806
Nigg, are you stupid? You think I'd stop doing my workout to take pics of some retard who doesn't know how to hold a dumbbell? You think you famous or some shit?
>>26633419
>>26633419
> Chad can be the biggest shy sperglord and girls will ADORE him because of his LOOKS
You say that, but the overwhelming majority of chads are alpha as fuck, not autistic robots. And most robots who try to claim looks are the only thing that makes a chad (rather than one of the factors) are NEETs with mental problems who are afraid to leave their room.
>>26626321
You are a retard, that is incredibly true
Yeah its 100% genetics. When will /fit/ learn that lifting WILL NEVER fix an ugly face. you arent guranteed women because you are strong, in the end it comes down to looks.
>>26624806
Nah people won't take pics of you. That would look weird if you did.
>>26624814
Underrated post. Thread shouldve ended here

Same here, except I'm not a pussy and I lift.
>>26629917
Those snake oil facts 2hard4me
>>26633188
Just go cuteboy senpai it's that easy
That's what everyone does nowadays
Lifting doesn't fix genetic inferiority. If you have thin and narrow bones, you'll always look like a faggot.

I like lifting. Prolly go tomorrow.
>>26624777
It is not good for health. It is very unhealthy. Cardio is better for physical and mental health but quite frankly I do have things to do during the day and thats all the cardio I am willing to do.
>>26632905
They'll make fun of you even if you're not at the gym? So what's the difference?

You generally want it to be short on the sides and lift your bangs so its not covering your forehead. If you have a severe receding hairline just bite the fucking bullet and go bald. The sooner the better.
>>26624777
I lift light weights and dance.
Dancing is pretty good cardio
>>26633153
its always rocket science
I used to lift weights. Then I got a new job which tired me out. I also lack a car so I have to take a 30minute walk to the gym.
I will start lifting next week though, got the gym card ready and new clothes so I have no more excuses.
>>26634291
id hope guys would stop that pineapple hair poop already its been going for 10+ years you niggres and thats almost literally only thing i still see..
you like knew it was originally nazi youth thing, right?
>>26633936
not if i stay home
Cancer fucked up my body. Low test, chronic pain, chronic fatigue make lifting pretty much impossible.
I lift and my mental health is still terrible
it doesn't fucking work.
I go to the gym
Look buff and get looks left and right
Eat healthy and drink mainly water and had only half a glass of beer this week.
Still feel like shit.
I'm missing something but i don't know what
>>26635985
what is your bench/squat and weight?
chances are you are low test and just low bf rather than strong
>>26633994
The amount of eating required for a skelly to bulk is not healthy
>>26636157
I'm not sure if I'm low test. I fap once a week or less. I am low bf though but have wide shoulders and a thin waist.
What do you recommend so I feel better?
All these queers complaining about being afraid to go gym, I've been working out at home for the past good few weeks. Only have an EZ bar, Straight bar, and about 75kg in weights, and 30kg weighted vest.
I'm eating 2700 calories a day, sometimes 3000, 5th week already noticed improvements. Shoulder more broad (it's all the way back now) i suspect from OHP. Legs getting bigger, arms getting bigger from weighted pull-ups and the works etc.. I'm doing SS, picture is a 95kg squat, since then I'm at 96kg. I up by 1-2kg each week on all exercises, OHP i take slower.
Few months from now I'll look decent, since I'm on a clean bulk and not like most of the failed fat faggots who did SS.
Fucking loving it.
because of the gym i only think about killing myself 15% of the time. the stupid fucking chemicals in your brain produced works.
>>26624806

facial gains are possible
>>26624806

>>26636552
He was attractive underneath the fat this doesnt work for ugly skellys with no fat to lose. Holy shit you shills are retarded
>>26636234
go to the doctor and get some test boosts, watch your food for estrogen producing things like soy, start eating big to lift big.

>>26624806
>You WILL be mocked by people on their phones taking pics of you (if you are weak or a fatass)
fatty pls.
be lifting for years and never seen anyone get mocked
>>26636234
even if you have low test docs wont help you so be prepared for that
unless you literally never hit puberty getting testosterone is no sure thing
>>26636395
You're gonna make it anon.
6 months from now you're going to be looking better and all these anons will still be holding on to their shitty excuses.

i'm afraid of being raped in the showers at the gym. that must happen thousands of times a day

Idiot.
Lifting weights is actually healthier than just doing cardio.
This is a scientific and medical fact
guys imma say this once
fucking run
we're animals and we are ment to run
it releases ALL the right chemicals in the brain to sustain a happy life
running is fucking magic
i run before seeing people im so much better in person than if im unactive
run up hill and run down for HIT training its the best you can do
run 20 minutes to start
build up to 30 just run

You don't even lift. Lifting drastically increased bone and joint strength u retarded cunt. It also increases the strength of your heart and your bodies ability to pump blood around the body. It's just not fluff for muscle gain.
My grandfather still lifts daily. His the fittest most active and mobile 88 year old I know. Enjoy being chair bound at 70 because you fell for the lifting isn't healthy meme.
>>26634102
take me to the bonezone skeller
>>26624806
This has never happened to me.
I started lifting
eight months ago and the only thing I've received is motivation from other guys at the gym; everybody started out a sad cunt, and they want to help you get better.
I lift every day and i do it just because i enjoy it. It hasn't had an effect on my mental health, im still a sad, anxious cunt.
