Landon Ross
yesterday I hit 3pl8 deadlift for reps after many months
it feels good to have some weight on the bar. It's starting to look like actual lifting slowly
Dominic Thompson
Lost 60 lbs in under a year with 2 months to go. Learned how to save money so I can save up for my 21st birthday and have a plan for school.
All because I started lifting and losing weight. Thanks for the sticky Veeky Forums
Owen Davis
A female friend of mine introduced me as her "hot friend" to a group of other girls and they all smiled at me.
Felt pretty good.

I went to the climbing gym and on sighted a V5, did the two new V6s in less than 3 tries each and almost did the new V7, but kept slipping on the second to last move. Felt amazing since I've been in a slump for almost two months

Daniel Barnes
You were probably already the hot friend before getting fit, unless you used to be fat. If your face looks more or less the same then no way could you go from not hot to hot
Jason Harris
Wrong.
Gavin Kelly
If you're fortunate enough to have bitches coming to YOU, bite the bullet and just get all the spaghetti out of your system using that stream of girls. Eventually you will learn to contain the pasta and you won't even have to do scary shit like approach a girl O_O
Noah Ross
Yes user the end is near. Go on a date and then become relationship. Im sure it will feel good to know someone loves you :)

Fuck that man. She's not worth your time if you weren't worth hers.

i know you guys hate black guys but when they're on your side it feels so fucking awesome
Brandon White
The app is Bumble and its gimmick is that only girls can initiate conversations once you've both right swiped each other. I haven't replied to any of them
Jason Jenkins
Sheeeit man. Climbings my motivation right now. You can do so much cooler shit the better you get at it
Parker Jones
Oh shit, do most of the people just open with something like "hey hows it going" or are some pretty interesting?
Matthew Jones
So far it seems like most just do a "hey :)" even though I explicitly designed my profile text to facilitate an easy conversational opener
Hudson Lee
Climbing is the only thing keeping me going too. I wanna start doing bodyweight stuff. I do push ups, pull ups, and planks, but I wanna shoot for harder stuff like hand stand push ups and dragon flags. Along with shooting for that V8 goal this year and eventually campus a V1 with 90 lbs on my back
Evan Ward
feels thread? ok posting my story. this happened 2 days ago.
>mega autist >read pickup stuff >pickup women in the mall >eventually get qt gf >she thinks im super hot (ottermode i dont even have defined abs lol) >things go alright except that sometimes she cancels dates alot and cancels on the same day >i even cancel plans with friends to hangout with her >confront her about it >this has happened alot of times and tell her that i feel that she disrespects my time >being single is better than being made into someone's bitch >i breakup with her >told her im blocking her on my phone/fb/steam(we play cs go together) >she thinks she did nothing wrong
I feel like the breakup was necessary. I'm not gonna be in a relationship with a girl that does bullshit like that. And if she realizes that and apologizes, I'm ok with getting back together.
Was it the right thing to breakup with her?
Julian Anderson
Mirin
Joshua Green
if its a big deal to you, yeah.
I personally end up having to cancel lots of stuff. My schedule isn't always up to me. Things come up.
shit sucks because i know it bothers people

help me brehs
Brody Edwards
> I explicitly designed my profile text to facilitate an easy conversational opener what does this mean?
Easton Phillips
Most of the time that she cancels is because she just doesn't 'feel' like it.I know that it's my fault for being a too much of a beta in the relationship that she does that. I'll just move on i guess.
Aaron Hall
It means you have a joke of some sort as the bio that is easy to comment about
For example your bio can say something like "My diet consists of taco" and then they can say "I love tacos!" and then a conversation can start from there
Cooper Sanchez
>literal autism
Hudson Jackson
How is that autism? It makes the conversation more natural, and not the typical "so what do you study" boring ass conversation
Obviously the taco thing is not something i'd put on my bio, it was just an example

social skills need PRACTICE breh just go out there and shotgun it you will get better each time you fuck up
Jeremiah Turner
Shes just not looking for the same thing as you are, best of luck m8, the girl for you is out there
You could be like me where the girls who show interest in you are just super fucking social and always busy, but again it's the same thing that they choose other things to do over us
Nolan Reyes

Multimire is best mire.
Chase Howard
Good job that you got away from her. At least it sounds like she wasn't as invested in it as you were.
Jason Young
You can chuck as much pasta as you want at them without consiquence user.
Levi Flores
1pl8 ohp isnt that impressive imho
Brandon Baker
Just having info about yourself on your profile should be enough (so instead of "hi" it can be "so what do you study in grad school?") But I also even have a "swipe right to hear X" thing so they can always just say "so tell me X."

Anthony Reyes
Recovering fatty here. After months of trying, I finally have my first date from Tinder this weekend.
I'm scared, though, she's like "too good to be true" hot, at least for a guy like me anyway. There's just got to be something seriously wrong with her that isn't readily obvious from her pictures.

Justin Hughes

Gabriel Walker
Do you feel any lifts in particular helped you progress? I've been stuck at V3 for months, there was a V4 in my range but required a powerful heel hook to start and my hammies said no.
Jack Wright
>see abs first time in life >not even flexing It's nice
Jaxon Jackson
This. I mean, I could see fucking a quesadilla, but I couldn't imagine marrying one.
Thomas Wright
most people would say that rewarding yourself with chocolate means you'll never make it, but honestly I think you will
keep going bro, also geralt is goal body

The Swiss army mire. Nice one bro!
Post your lifts then faggot. 1/2/3/4 as standard for "made it" tier. It's arguable that it's the hardest to get out of all those lifts.
Happy for you friendo. So you're making social skills gains?
You made it brah. Hope it was all worth it.
James Wright
Does attempting to insult people on Veeky Forums really do that much to help you ignore your insecurities? Thanks bro Yeah I'd agree, but I've been sticking to a 1000kcal deficit and the bar was only 600 calories so not too much guilt.
Zachary Gutierrez
>Hanging out with friends. >Running joke that i look older than everyone >Girl i invited chimes in "No user doesnt look old, hes just tall and has a jawline"
That was feel of the week right there.
Colton Scott
Youre making it user. Were all gonna make it
Cameron Collins
Treat interaction with females the way you treat lifting: work on it with a plan. If you wanted to get stronger, you wouldn't just load up the bar with 300 lb and try a deadlift if you hadn't lifted in 2 years. Don't wait till you see a grill you're really into before you try your first attempt at interaction. Go out with a plan such as "I will interact with at least 5 females tonight". That way it's not as much pressure because all your eggs aren't in one basket. Progressive overload works on your social life as well as your body.
Ayden Rogers
For a lot of normies it is
Leo Green
nigga I'm not insulting you, I'm being frank with you. You ate empty calories you convinced yourself you deserved and then sat on your ass for hours on end playing a video game. You didn't do something healthy.

You literally had to convince yourself to go to the gym and you barely DL 225. Something tells me these cheat days are more common than not.

Hadn't seen the Asian powerlifter at my gym in months. Ran into him there yesterday and he said, "Damn dude, you're really making it." (Skelly going for Otter.)

Missed out on doing deadlifts and rack pulls yesterday as they were doing some work in the gym and the machines were off limits, so I went in today and had to do it on top of my chest + legs workout.
Couldn't do the squats in the end because my shoulders were hurting a lot and holding the bar in place was putting extra stress on it, but felt solid, did all my usual weights and even went up on my DB Bench, had some disgusting BCAA drink and a Brotein shake after, now just gonna chill and let the weekend roll over me like a disgusting fucking slab of meat.
Jackson Gonzalez
I think Should just post evidence that he has friends. Theres this guy who goes to my gym who is admittedly quite ripped, but he truly just lives an empty life since he's such a dick
>brings his "friend" >friend isnt even DYEL, hes full couch potato >starts him off on bench, doesn't even allow warmup set >"you're getting a pl8" >"ok, whatever you say ripped friend" >cant move it a millimeter >"danielhelp" >"come on at least try, im not lifting it up until you move it an inch" >15 seconds later he picks it up I should've run over there and helped the kid, and beaten that other fag to death.
Christopher Long
Seriously this. And this only or say you're too busy if you're a real man
Carter Nguyen
Good job. Looks like you gained some discipline.
Zachary Long
This happened to me when I first started lifting, this bench-only Slovakian looking dude was working in with me, and basically got tired of putting plates on and off (I was only putting 10's on, literally my first week there) and forced me into doing 1pl8, he ended up just holding the bar, lifting it with one hand whilst looking off to the side and saying how easy it was, made me feel like shit.
Nowadays I'm benching 60kg, he's on about 80, he was on about 60 when that happened so I'm catching up, once I'm lifting more, I'll make a point of working in with him and forcing him to do it at my weight.
Austin Cox
Regardless of his body, what he says is totally true and making it will take years longer if ever even possible with that mindset
