Good Feels Thread

Hurt my back this week, feeling bummed that I'm not in the gym. Can Veeky Forums give me any good feels stories that happened to them recently? Breaking PRs, strangers mirin', got laid, etc. Positive vibes and constructive shitposting welcome.

I've got a couple of good feels to share. I'll start with a PR.

>Tuesday
>Day 2 of sheiko skills test
>Already PR'd on squat yesterday by 30 lbs and bench today by 20 lbs
>Time for deadlift
>Have pulled 510 before but hurt my back, failed an attempt after c6w 2 months ago
>Feeling good today
>Pull 495 ezpz
>Load up 515
>Want to record myself
>First attempt, break the ground but come up on my toes
>Put weight down, rest 5 minutes try again
>Listen to the song that gets my adrenaline going the most youtu.be/9m4685liWb0
>As soon as I hit record on my phone, stand up, lock my belt in, walk to the bar
>Looks like an SLDL but set a new PR of 515

I was fucking pumped desu senpai.

Nice, I'm mirin'. Last week my PR was benching lmao1plate for 7 reps. Also got over my fear of asking a complete stranger to spot me. He was super cool about it though.

I hit 135 5x5 for my first time this week, two days later I tried again with out a spotter and got it. Feel pretty good considering 4 months ago I could barely rep 65lbs.

good job, man

feels fucking good man. Next thing I need to do is just prioritize my time better and focus on my finances. Feels amazing being in good shape and having dates/social interactions every night of the week. As a former /r9k/ faggot, I couldn't ask for anything better.

>tfw no loving but lonely grandmother who'll cook delicious food just for you to spend some time with her.

Fuck dude, I wanna volunteer at a retirement home now

Sick shit. Just Deadlifted my first plate the other day after doing them for only 2 weeks with 25lbs. Havent benched though cause I have no spotter so I just stick to dumbbells.

No i worked as a nurses aid theyre all dementiated, they attack and steal unsure of where they are, they smell like pee and poop and all have this better than you snobby attitude. Some are nice and others are vile always pinching and pulling my hair calling me a whore and whatever.

>had a patellar tendon tear and slight meniscus rupture

>it hurts so good

I have no clue how but I literally did my previous PR for powercleans as a 5x5 and since I lost wait in my legs when they're pumped now they look so grainy and veiny and so joocy

This is so fucked up but god damn.

>wont be hard
Damn right you wont be hard youve been looking at half naked dudes for the past 4 years.

I don't have a meaningful comment to accompany this, that's just the way life is, many terrible things happen, many good things too, just gotta keep pushing through, remember, it's the struggle that makes you.

>tfw you break through a plateau

Benching 190 lbs for 5x5 a couple days ago felt incredible. I had gotten to the point where I couldn't get past 180 but then I decided to go to change my routine a little bit, became more consistent, and upped my calorie count by 500 and my lifts have started to improve big time.

Very conservative goal is to get to 1/2/3/4 by the end of the year. Attainable yet hard to reach goal I think would be something like 150/245/335/425.

>visits snap city
>wants to do deadlifts again
you know ... once you snap your shit up, there really is no unsnapping. don't do deadlifts AT ALL when you're goal is to look good.
have fun having chronic back pain when you're 40.

>started chatting with a qt about swimming in my gyms sauna
>he gave me his number in case I want him to show me some tips
Feels good

>I hurt my back boohoo
Fuck you bitch. I broke my jaw and literally haven't been able to eat solid food for a week and won't be having surgery for another week. Even after surgery I won't be eating solid food for who knows how long.

You're not strong and independent, you're living off inheritance rather than working for anything. You worthless fuck.

>"user! You're losing weight"
Always makes those cut/bulk cycles worth it

>apply for a million jobs
>have a job currently but its temporary and can only be renewed for 2 more years
>get a phone interview
>goes well

>bad news tho

>its entry position so hopefully wont have to know too much
>they want me to meet and get to know all levels of the company
>gotta study up on my shit this weekend

Only on Veeky Forums is it a competition to see whose in the most pain.

>4 months lifting
>3 plate deadlift for 3 reps today
>65lbs down this year
>Can finally start to find clothes that fit

Getting there slowly

140kg deadlift after 3 months is pretty sick, congrats. I'm at ~100kg for 5 reps after 2.5 months of lifting now, but it's about the limit of what I can do.

>position opens inside my company but not going to apply because I don't particularly want the job

You can make it user. Just keep pushing.

Deadlift is probably my best lift. Im stuck at 100x5 on squat, and my OHP is terrible. Last attempt I managed 40x5, and then I had to push press 45kg x 4.

Still need to lose at least another 100lbs though.

Yeah, I'm in pretty much the same boat, all my push-lifts are awful. My OHP is like 30 for five. For some reason my deadlifts started out pretty strong (I think I started at like 75 or 80 for my 1RM) and my pull is also pretty good (can do maybe 2-4 good-form chinups)

On the upshot, I'm really close to my ideal bf% now, and girls are starting to mire and be really friendly.

(here's my overall weightloss curve, btw, only started measuring on a daily basis recently)

>take off t-shirt
>lat rips out a massive hole under the sleeve
>tfw literally 2swole2control

Thats nice progress.

And its not about how much you can lift. Its about how much you look like you can lift.

>freeshurgs.jpg
Wew I'm laffin

Yeah this is true, but it becomes more tolerable as time goes on.

Nice, dude. What are your stats? I'm thinking about trying to lmao1plate diddy tomorrow myself.

>>Go to a bar on Wednesday to watch the Stanley Cup Finals
>>By myself but whatever
>>See qt looking girl by herself, think nothing of it
>>Penguins win in OT, happy as fuck
>>Go outside to finish my beer
>>Qt comes outside too

I followed along till here

>Start talking to her

You lost me user.

no need for a spotter when benching, just don't go all the way to max and learn the roll-of shame.

Respect the bench, it's where most accidents happen

You'll get through it brother, just let it mend. When you can and if you don't already, start doing some prehab - some decent mobility exercises, foam rolling, all that shit is fantastic. Highly underrated.

Started at 375 in October, currently at 243.

I weigh less than I did in the 6th grade, so that's something.

I passed all my exams, weight is going up, got my gi for bjj yesterday and im feeling better than ever

Thanks, man. Yeah I've been stretching my hams at work all day, I think I'm good to return tomorrow morning. Good job on the weight loss btw.

lmao those daddy issues

Sounds like your typical fucking slut aka female. I swear dude the next girl I get im gonna fuckin fuck the wheels off her maybe spit on her then never call that bitch again maybe just text her and say I hate you, fuck you

VIRGIN ALERT

nice dude that's awesome

Then you should be better.

Why didn't you fuck her? Tinder is Litterally for hookups. Do you guys really use it to get dates? Murrica is wierd...

It's Friday.
I dropped off my dry cleaning, did laundry, cleaned, got a haircut, stretched, foam rolled, now I'm settling down, made a drink before a QT shows up to join me before we go over to my friend's to continue to drink/smoke/play video games. Then I'll bring QT home & bang her.

Pretty OK.

I was getting examined at the doctors office and the nurse tried to put that pump up arm wap thing on my arm, but it was too small. She even says ''too much muscles I guess'' and get a bigger one instead. Good feels man.

Kek,shit you fucking asshole. Had full feelz until you hit inheritance money and buying a FUCKIN HOUSE.

>got the guts to mention independence and shit. IM SOOO FUCKING TRIGGERED

lol/10

So I was doing some sqwaats today at the gym. I've only been lifting for eight weeks so I except to be on the weaker end out of the people there . Then I remembered I lift at the fucking YMCA . I'm the second heaviest squatter at the gym and my max is like 280. So I'm repping 245 when some fat lady starts mirin.

>asks me if I'm on my schools weightlifting team

Felt good man but deep down she just wanted to give me a compliment so I would fuck her.

>pic related current gf

...

>apply for a job I don't really have the qualifications for

>get the job on the spot

>dat der privilege

What company?

>Just asked out a qt tinder girl for a date tomorrow.
>No reply yet, hope she says yes
this is pathetic
what happened to actually meeting and inviting girls out irl?

I was doing 200 3x8 on bench pretty easily and I though to myself after finishing "I'm doing 2 plates"
Loaded it up, went in the house to piss and came back terrified.

I fucking hammered it out x5. Holy fuck am I am on cloud thirty four right now. This is what lifting is about. It's not the most weight in the world, but it's what I did and I am fucking proud.

I also did 3 sets of 10 of 70 pound weighted dips pretty easily right after. And I've been having trouble with reps 9 and especially ten in my last two sets the last times I tried. Not today.

Today was a great day of lifting and the happiest I've been in a while. I should probably go out and capitalize on this.

They did the same shit to you they did to me

>come from old money
>parents move me to a completely different state in bum fuck nowhere to see if I can handle one of our new businesses myself all alone as CEO
>left me with house,car,allowance, and salary from job ...

Shit was weird at first but I got use to it...I always get shit when I go back home though because I'm use to a more casual look but my parents are very strict on grooming. My sister always says I'm going to get shit if I come out in just a plain white tshirt.

mfw when that was the first and yet only girl i ever approached out of no where, feels good even if i'm to much of a faggot to ask for the number yet

man I have a gym crush as well and I'm too autistic to interpret her body language or stares as just coincidence or signs of attraction. I wish I could talk to her but I think she's too qt to not be taken.
Anyway, I'm happy for you I hope you make it

man the girl i approached is really cute, probably like a 8/10 and has a really nice body. she was there sometimes with 2 other guys but you just have to try, she is single so your girl is probably too

Or in a Monty Python sketch.

I started 5/3/1 this year after about three years of calisthenics, and I've been progressing nonstop. Bench and squat are going well, especially. Did squats yesterday, had to do 3 reps@143lbs for the last set, and I was able to do 8 reps. I might need to recalculate my max.

At my city's carnival event last weekend, a girl friend of mine told me that she had a thing for me, and we made out a bit. Now I'm just trying to figure out if it's worth it getting together with her. Never had that feel before.

Don't recalculate your maxes. Follow the progression laid out - you're meant to be obliterating the required rep numbers most of the time.
