What is "making it" for you? Why do you lift? For pussy? For money? For recognition? Has anyone actually reported back after "making it"? Has anyone "arrived"?Or does what they seek elude them forever until one day they expire? I lift for a beautiful death. I wish for undying fame among mortals. I wish to strike at the gods with an arm of bronze and join their company. Picrel.
>>70422020>WAGMI? Make WHAT exactly?You are clearly, unironically, never going to make it

>>70428860You're very much correct, anon. Now I want to focus on making money. I'm fucking broke, my family is broke and I've been doing manual work to survive since after high school. But WAGMI.
>>70422020>What is "making it" for you? To live life by my own rules, answer to as few people as humanly possible, in a body I am happy with.>Why do you lift? >For pussy? Yes - my girlfriend is into fitness(dick in her ass) and I want to be, feel and look confident for her, as she does for me.>For money? Outside of modeling or influencer shit, being /fit/ is not directly related to money. Being tall makes you statistically more likely to be in positions of power and income, and deferred to in the workplace. I am both, fortunately.>For recognition? Of course, being fit is a status symbol. See Arnolds 'you can't buy it' speech, or the fact the Tyler Burden gets posted here once a day despite coming out before many anons were born.>Has anyone actually reported back after "making it"? I made it and kind of just forgot about 4chan for a time. I used to post on misc too, kind of gave up. I'm back now and can confirm it's rare to find good info here; it is entertaining though.>Has anyone "arrived"?I 'made it' according to goals I set five years ago. In five years I hope to make it according to my new ones.Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.

>>70432466> Strangely enough I think I have to imagine her genuinely in love to heal myself. Strangely enough I may have to swap her out for someone I can't imagine hurting me, like this gacha waifu I'm obsessed with.You are wanting someone to come along and solve your problems for you. You are looking outside of yourself for acceptance and love. This is why you think you NEED someone to love you. It's also why you think you can't have friends: because you don't accept yourself. You are terrified of rejection and failure. There's a good chance you might even seen yourself as a failure, which feeds back into all the rest making it worse.Stop doing that. Work towards self acceptance and self love. If you can't love or accept yourself, all the love in the world from others won't "heal" you. If you think you aren't worthy of friends, all the friends in the world won't make you feel better. Stop telling yourself you are a failure. And stop thinking you NEED others to approve of you. You need to approve of you. Period. In the end, you are the first and last person you will be around. You are the one who matters. Not them.>T. Someone who broke out of a similar feel. It takes time. You can do it. Get help if you need to. There's no shame in it.
>>70432466Your therapist already know you're a loser, I any of this would actually surprise him, but he might try to get you on anti-psychotics if you tell him tho. Either way your gay little fantasy world is part of the problem, it satisfies your desires just enough for you to not be compelled to actually chase them. But your unconscious knows it's all a ruse and isn't fooled in the slightest which just spirals you down deeper into this bullshit. So to answer your question, don't imagine your stupid waifu doing anything.
>>70432466I think >>70433033 has a point. Your headspace determines the reality you live in. If your waifu is either fucking you or beating the hell out of you, it's because you don't see yourself as worthy of love. You've got to accept yourself first. You can try to find something like a chatbot to help you but I think you've got some self-work to do that an AI won't help with. Start small. Next time you're pretending ninja Bae-din is beating the hell out of you, imagine that she's doing something like interrogating you while she's doing it.
feed me whitepills bros i pulled my pec at my peak performance after smashing PR after PR3rd day of rest today kinda feels better than yesterdayi can't wait to go back to the gym but idk how i'm supposed to start again. i should "take it easy" but what exactly does this mean? do i do my regular program at 50% the weights?also how long am i supposed to rest? until i don't feel any pain at all when stretching my pec?
>>70432466i lost my virginity at 32 and have been fucking about a girl a month on average since thenjust keep lifting and self-improving
Currently bulking on one entire baguette a day (I'm French), half or an entire tablet of dark chocolate a day, steaks, milk and a lethal amount of pasta and yogurt. Will any of these foods kill me or will it make me ascend?
>>70433284>baguettebased>half or an entire tablet of dark chocolate a daybased but cacao powder is even more based>steaksbased>milkbased>lethal amount of pasta and yogurtbasedYGMI, OP
>>70433284>>70433303Forgot to mention, if you're not eating eggs, add em. Eggs make the world go round so you should eat em, besides that you're gonna make phenomenal gains
>>70433303>>70433332Ty anon. Would it be a good idea to sprinkle my hot chocolates with cacao powder? I don't do protein shakes etc so I don't know how to consume it any other way. Also I've heard eggs are super based but sadly I hate the taste and never could stand them.

I haven't been a normal weight for over 8 years. A healthy BMI is a pipe dream. I lift weights but I can't outlift my cravings.
>>70432620Legitimately just give up once and for all and die you fat fuck Stop acting "woe is me i can't stop eating" whilst trying to fucking lift 6kg weights to make you feel like you've done somethingGo order 5 pizzas, relax in the front of the tv, and keep on going ad infinitum until your heart gives out

>>70432958Honestly? Be happy where you are. your body will always naturally fluctuate up and down sizes. If you're struggling to lose weight on a programme that has worked for you (you've lost 70lbs, that's huge, you know what you're doing) your body might be very happy at this maintenance level. If you lose a lot of weight its very important to remember that it will never be like other peoples bodies. I was grossly obese for the majority of my life, i will never be slim and toned but that wasn't the point of weight loss , it was to be healthier to live the life i deserve. I went insane trying to reach my goal weight but now i don't even care what i weigh. I like how i look, i can wear my clothing, and I'm ok when i gain and lose weight. It's just proof youre living your life.Bored snacking will ruin you. My only advice for that is distraction. If you're not hungry, you're not intuitively eating, you need to do something else. Hobby, interest, or just getting out of the house and removing yourself from food. Playing with a pet. Doing some art work. Engage with a cam girl. Masturbate. Anything to break the association of bored must eat
>>70433263I'm 6' and hover now around 160-165. But still smothered with fat, and it's too hard to go lower. I'm just absolutely fucking exhausted all the time trying to do any amount of steady cardio like walking/hiking, and then lifting is brutally difficult
>>70433281bro >>70433060 I'm 5'8 and if I went to 165 I'd literally be dead, like 5% bf. How in the fuck are you that at 6 feet? No wonder man... Lift/Eat More maybe? that might help? obviously.....

How many people in your gym can actually bench 225 or heavier?
>>70425248Probably around 10% from what I've seen. 5% for reps. Saw a dude repping 3pl the other day. He's probably in the 1%. Never seen 4pl at my current gym.
>>70425571I can do 5x5 185lbs so probably yeah. for 1 rep
>>70427295havent been to a gym but its pretty shit, sometimes to0 crowded and ppl asking to work in and the staff is pretty unprofessional. i wouldnt reccomend going to a normie gym.
>>70427368>How many of you guys see people deadlift 3pl8+ in your gym?There are a couple obvious roiders that can pull 5-6 plates, as well as the group of about five powerlifting turbo manlets that pull around 4-5 plates (albeit with straps and belts). Anyone who looks kind of normal besides myself maxes out at just over 3 plate>According to /fit/ this is something most people can do after ~3-6 months of liftingI actually surpassed it in about 2.5 months of training diddies. I do around 365 for reps (5x5 was my best dating back to 4 years ago)
>>70429418being strong is way easier than being shredded, the later requires encompasses many more aspects outside the gym

I have massive hemorrhoids that acted up a few days ago and now they're so big they hurt like nothing else I've felt in my life.Doctor said I needed to get them removed by surgery, but this was back in mid 2022 and they kind of calmed down and shrinked.Something a few days ago made them come back stronger than ever. I already lost 3 days of lifting. How much will this shit take to heal?I'm taking flavonoids, rectal cream and some painkillers but nothing makes it less painful. I don't want to get surgery yetAny experiences?
>>70433115Anything I can do about the smell? It's horrible. I havent been outside these last couple of days
>>70433115also a month without lifting? I'll go back to skelly mode. fuck
>>70433163there's a smell? jesus, ya wash your ass, get a bidet attachment. the cold water will shrink them too.
>>70433181you can work on your upper body as long as you don't strain anything near your pelvis. focus on cardio. walking is also good even though that seems counter intuitive. sitting makes them worse.
Get a bidet. Haven't had a problem with hemorrhoids since. Doesn't have to be fancy. I just use a tushy.
