Why lift

why are we working so hard dude?

we're just going to die

why not live a comfy life of mild excess and flab instead of killing ourselves with all the counting and trips to the gym?

what point does it serve

If you're comfortable languishing in your one existence on this earth, feel free m8.

>le ebin nihilism meme

because i have never felt what it is like for a woman to care about me

i want to

At least your pecs won't gradually become more and more disproportionate as you progress... Collar bone broke and I can't activate the same muscles. I'm gonna look like a failed boob job when I cut
Hold me Veeky Forums

Because you can be more hedonistic in good shape than you can when you're such a fat shit you can't walk

serious awww
thats a cuddly wuddly looking kitty cat

only life I've got OP.

I might as well live it being the strongest and best look motherfucker I can be.

I mean, your life goal might be different than mine, but I want to be that 90 year old dude still traveling and exploring the world, able to move and climb stairs and get myself out of bed.

If you want to die at 70 with diabetes, go ahead.

We don't have any promises, I mean, you could die in a car crash tomorrow.

But shit, I'ma try for that endgame. It's not like those few hours of the week were used productively on anything else.

strong people are harder to kill than weak people
in my line of work, this is very important

I want to pet that dog

Only two ways to live life:

1.) as passive and comfy as possible, the path of least resistance.

2.) extremely active and rewarding as possible, you play for the payoff.

which would you rather be associated with faggot?

Because your mate selection increases with physical improvement
instead of just hambeasts to take your seed you can also deposit it in solid 5/10s

I literally have this feeling everytime I go to the gym

Then I lift and remember I'd rather have a fun rewarding existence than a boring one

If i don't lift i will have to deal with serious back pain. Also it feels good to move in a capable body

Also i want a leopard pet friend that will go in adventures with me

>why not live a comfy life of mild excess and flab instead of killing ourselves with all the counting and trips to the gym?

I've lived that life for over 15 years.

I didn't enjoy being ashamed of taking my shirt off at the waterpark, I didn't enjoy hating looking at myself in the mirror, I didn't enjoy my health problems,I didn't enjoy being weak, i didn't enjoy looking like shit, I didn't enjoy having a fat moonface, I didn't enjoy looking worse than almost everyone else, i didn't enjoy having no endurance, I didn't enjoy not being able to run after a bus, I didn't enjoy getting winded so quickly.


So i decided to make a change and I found a fun hobby that also has plenty of not only health benefits but aesthetic benefits.

Well what else should I do with that time

srs brah?

youtube
video games
music
porn/fap
social media


c'mon dude it's 2016

>we're just going to die
This is the only thing that makes me want to stop lifting, not because I realize I will die some day, but because it lengthens my life. I lift because I have nothing better to do, and I feel like I am accomplishing something, but unfortunately it causes me to be more healthy and live a longer life when all I want is to just die

but I already do that with the other time

Id rather be rich, successful, fit but uncomfortable than pathetic but comfortable

Different mindsets I guess, to each their own

>Get to 5 pl8 DL
>Feel utterly empty and wrong about it
>Stop
>Do BJJ
>Be kinda happy

In other words, I've never been happier than when I stopped 1 1/2 years ago

Because hedonism is a flawed philosphy; pleasure is not the sole cause of happiness. I personally subscribe to Epicureanism, but stoicism is also valid. Happiness is achieved by a combination of pleasures, and a strong self-image cultivated through discipline and virtue.
No happy man without virtue could not be made happier with some.

>self-image
>not self-abasement
rly now return to your greeks

nah nigga I don't wanna be a loser

Because I'm vain. I got dumped recently and this is my way out. If chicks are the kind of cunts they are and I am gonna stick by myself for a while, I at least want to masturbate knowing I look damn good.

>triggered
Read pic you sack of shit.

every hour spent at the gym is effort going into to surviving and thriving in the race war
