How you doing, user?

Got the week off

Going to retraint my squat depth and just lift all week.

Also either getting drunk or high afterwards

Doing better than ever, but somehow it still doesn't feel good enough. Why can't I ever just be happy with where I am?

What city? It was like that with me last year but it picked up a bit once everyone arrived.

Had to stop lifting the other week, good bulking food is too expensive here. It's relieving not to have to eat so much and spend several hours lifting a week, but I'll miss the feeling of knowing that I'm getting stronger.

My OCD has been acting up a bit and my head's been scattered. Hard to focus on a single thing.

Things are still good, just trying to align myself.

Found out today I have lingual hernia and therefore need surgery sometime next month. So the prospect of losing potentially 2-3 months of gains down the drain sucks.

Got rejected today when I was sure I was in

> Get super close to this girl at uni over the semester
> We do a bunch of projects together/study for tests together, probably spend about 5hrs week one-on-one
> Today she asked me if I was free after class, asked if I wanted to grab lunch
> We went and got lunch and had a good time, laugh and joke about random shit and have a good connection
> Feelsgoodman.jpeg
> About to leave for train
> Decide that was the moment
> "Hey, I was wondering if you'd like to go out some time?" or something like that
> "Sorry user but I have a bf"
> She literally never mentioned it in 8 weeks of the semester
> Was as confident as I ever was asking a girl out
> Get rejected

That was soul-crushing

Atleast I have gym to look forward to

Well as of a few weeks, she's just someone that's residing on my contact list. We're not writing with each other, nothing.

block and delete bro, it's the best way

Pretty good. Graduated from 1pl8 diddly lift to 2pl8 today and feel awesome today. Made a lot of progress this month

>t minus 1 hour till my first day at a powerlifting gym
>Going to take my first scoop of preworkout with it
>Nervous as fuck
Everyone is going to be better than me. I bet some of the women will lift more than I do.

Monday mornings are the quiet before the storm. Another week, another split, another 13 credit hours, another 7 hours of homework, another week of dad asking why i have no gf now that I'm "shredded", ie noobgains. It's just another week, like any other.

No point, it's like i'm blocking her by just not texting and that is making me sad, because i really like writing with her, exchanging some dank memes and having a laugh.

just go in there and work hard. they'll respect the work ethic, not the numbers.

if you go in there and fail to break a sweat making sure the perfect taylor swift song is playing, you're fucked.

Not good senpai. Sitting in the reception of a walk-in centre becasue I've fucked my knee up somehow.

I haven't been to the gym in 3 weeks, but suddenly it started hurting last week.

Fuck.
JUST

>White people
>Aryan

When will this meme die?

I sure hope so.

dont fuck up like I did. join a club and start meeting people. There are usually lifting and martial arts ones for students.

Ex dumped me 1 week ago, apparently already found someone else

I cannot run for a few days due to body being too exhausted from weekends marathon, yet my mind craves for the runners high and I just feel empty and depressed due to having to wait so long before next run.
I guess I could try other cardio like swimming, but it just doesn't feel the same. I only feel alive when running.

join a climbing gym if u have the money. you will meet the best ppl

>Get there as soon as they open
>Owner is there, only 3 other people
>They're all 6'2-6'5, huge
>They can smell that I'm new, all come to greet me
>Introductions, ask what I hope to achieve and what I plan on doing
>Owner shows me around, tells me I can do whatever, treat it as a home gym, be respectful of the equipment
>Great atmosphere and music

g-gonna make it even if I feel out of place

Talked to my qt at the gym. Made her laugh. Confidence is at an all time high.

Same happened to me few months ago breh, except I'm sure she was already seeing him before she dropped me

I just wanna lift weights and smash pussy.

Is that too much to ask? ;-;

Holy dingus i want something like this

It's really awesome. Little small and again I feel way out of place, but that should hopefully change. Feels like really great motivation.

Feeling motivated.
Had a Helix body scan done on the weekend, and it gave me back some horrible numbers.

>161cm
>72kgs
>37%bodyfat
>female

That's what I get for not training and eating chocolate all winter. But I'm motivated and determined to stick to my meal plan and train.

Leg day was today. DOMs are coming. About to eat my last meal of the day which is greek yoghurt and blueberries. Then bed.

>female

Hello all.
Turns out I have a ruptured bursa over my kneecap.

Likely from kneeling down too much. It's similar to housemaids knee, but more severe apparently.

Before you ask, I think I got it from moving boxes out of my old flat, not sucking dick. (I wear knee pads when im gargling jizz)

Broke up with my girl this Sunday. Turns out she still had feelings for me.
Feels bad because I know she will be very sad but I can't be responsible for her feelings.

>College is shit
>The only thing i enjoy is lifting
>Woke up with back pain
>Cant lift today due to back pain
>Sprayed deep heat on my back but it isn't stopping the pain
>Dont even know how I hurt my back it cant have been lifting as I do not lift over the weekend

No that's what I mean, you need to forget and move on. Don't leave her number there as a temptation .

Believe me I've been through the same heartache, cutting her out will hurt now but in the long run will be better

Y'all need a hobby that is more social than lifting ffs.

Pulled it sleeping. I've done it before to my shoulder.
In some deep sleep shit I probably slept on it wrong, it fell asleep due to shit circulation, and I pulled it rolling without feeling it.

chicks do this relentlessly with dudes, omitting boyfriend details is useful for getting a "Friend" who will help them with schoolwork ,buy them food etc.

Just did 2pl8 squat for 8 reps twice. Didnt know I had this strength after being stuck on 90kg for so long.

How did you do it?

Stuck in the nervous 90's myself

Just got laid for the first time since being at college. The whole time she was telling me how big my dick was. Now off to gym to train legs and bis. Love you guys. Here's a pic of a squirrel eating a chicken tendie.

yo
rest that shit for anywhere up to a week
if it persists past 7 days with no major strain go see a doctor

I've gained 6 lbs and only exercised 4 of the past 7 days.

Send help.

4/7 is more than enough. Fix your diet faglord.

This brotier black PT came up to me and said why aren't you squatting 100kg yet he pulled me aside and gave me a pep talk and I did it in the next set somehow with him spotting me.

Congrats bro, got any of them eating pizza?

You doubt my power? The squirells on campus are nuts hehe.

Down 42.3 pounds since the beginning of june.

Started at 331.5

Goal weight is around 165-170

289.2 feels a lot better than 331.

>doing well in uni
>6'4", 90 kg fully recovered skelly
>hit 200 kg deadlift 6 days ago
>good amount of friends from my classes
>several friend requests on facebook from girls at the uni gym

However over the last months I've been dealing with some pretty bad depression/anxiety and I have no idea why. I've always been an introvert and I find myself dodging social events and making up excuses not to meet "friends", but I have never felt this empty inside.

Just imagine how that 170 is gonna feel. Keep it up

>Heavy drinking at uni
>meet 4-5/10 girl, beer goggles strong
>she basically convinces me to fuck her
>go to her room
>dick doesn't work because alcohol
>I leave

Dodged a real bullet lads

I'm excited user. I've always been fat, but it got really out of control summer after my senior year in hs through my freshman year at uni.

I might actually enjoy shopping for clothes

Not good I tried to go back to normal porn but it ain't the same.

PRs and 1RM, Waist line, and weight have been stagnant for months.

Mad passion dog I met this broad at the club. I was drunk and dabbed out of my fucking mind. I guess I was lucky she turned out to be a 7-8/10

Pretty bad desu.

This really isn't how I pictured my life at 26. I really fucked up in the past and never fully recovered, I just want a friend to go out and talk too about life and just be social.

I was surprised how many guys started working out after a relationship didn't.

Keep it up bro, we're all gonna make it

>I find myself dodging social events and making up excuses not to meet "friends".
Same, I have no interest in other people but they keep inviting me for drinks and events.

>4 months in
>still dyel
>caloric surplus fucking with aesthetics
>grip strength not sufficient to increase diddlys

>whatsthepoint.jpg

To look way more aesthetic in the future?

lol
BE PROUD you atleast tried.
In other news - women are like that. At least you arent her token friendzone organism.

I suppose so. I end up wondering almost every day if it would have been better to just go full bro on my exercise routine and not do any strength training. Although now that I'm stronger, it is nice.

I just changed to a routine with much more volume this week so we'll see how it works out. I'm hoping that by doing rows every workout I can add strength to my grip, but my rows suck because I didn't start doing them until recently, they may actually be too far behind my DL to affect anything.

The real problem is that I have a room mate who got into fitness at the same time as me who only does curls, bench, and weighted pullups, and it's gotten him a lot of comments and compliments but he can't squat the bar. I can't even think about these things without feeling incredibly petty, but on a subconscious level it's fucking with my pretty hard desu senpai

Yeah, I'm kind of in the similar situation because of the bulk. Looking at the mirror, seeing bellyfat and love handles come back just makes me disgusted of myself. It's worth it in the long run tho I suppose. Just don't become a curlbro, it might work out in short term but doesn't lead to a balanced body.

>don't become a curlbro

Oh, I won't. The new routine won't get rid of anything, just add. I know how you feel about the bulk though, I've only got a couple more weeks before I start cutting again (I actually hate having to eat as many calories as I've been eating, I can't wait to slow down)

Good actually, but that girl i have or had my eye on is ignoring me, on purpose.
We both like texting with each other, but she can't handle it emotionally, i think.

Not good at all, hurt my leg real bad and can barely walk. Haven't been to the gym in 5 days

Caught a really bad fever and it's making me miss workouts. Also my appetite is completely gone and I can't eat as much as I need to. I can feel my gains vanishing :(

This. You got played, betamaster.

I have a week off work, and since I workout 5 days a week before work, this is basically a rest week.

How fucked am I for taking a week off, or should I really be training regardless?

STOP

I went to a wedding on Saturday and it went as expected

no girl seemed desperate enough to talk to me
I didn't talk to anyone
I didn't dance

I was sitting in a corner boozing myself to death while watching others dance and have fun. Then suddenly time was 5 am and the groom (my best friend) told me the party was over.

If anything this wedding did for me, it reinforced the idea that I am literally fucked and there is no hope for me in the future.

there was ONE girl I was dying for, and that girl was doing the serving. She is the most cute and perfect girl I have ever had the chance to meet in my life. She seemed shy as well. At some point she asked me if I wanted a drink, I looked at her in the eyes and felt like the skies opened in front of me. After 5 seconds of silence, reality hit me in the chest, reminding me that I am a useless piece of shit that should have committed suicide a long time ago, and replied with "uh sorry yes sure thanks".

This is why I avoid humanity. I do not want to have any interactions, because interactions bring feelings, and while feelings come, reality is always there, watching in silence, laughing at you for even fucking trying.

Fuck this guys

Just fuck this....

Not good, i'd kill innocent person for a head full of hair
>just shave it
I've been shaving my head for the last 2 years, i hate it. Every time i looked in the mirror i wanted to kill myself. Only faggots who never had to experience balding say shit like "ohohoho just shave it brah ;)"

>go to Powerlifting gym first time
>Grab a barbell and weights, begin squatting
>Rack my weights
>Eventually leave
>Just remembered I forgot to put back the barbell

Fuck me I'm so used to keeping it there from commercial gyms

I'm thinking about shaving bro.

I started doing minoxidil to help, but I've been having sexual dysfunction and wonder if it's related and I should stop. I just don't think I'm fit or have a good enough head to shave

I'd rather have a head full of hair then function dick besides i've been using minoxidil for a year and i still can get normal boners. Still i'm saving for a hair transplant. I've been using conditioner and special shampoo on my hair so it stopped falling out and it even started growing back but it's long ass process that'd take me at lest decade to regain normal hairline thus i'm saving for on operation.

Any societies you can join bro? What sort of shit are you into?

I mean I feel you. I'm 25. Idk if I'd rather have hair than a functional dick. I guess it's a grass is greener thing. You doing nalaxone shampoo stuff?

I don't think I'd do a transplant. I will never have enough money where that'll be what I do. My best hope it to try supplements to try and keep it slow and then get fit enough to get away with shaving.

Best of luck, bald brother

>am balding
>buzz it down every other week
>no regrets

Seriously, get over it. Just fucking hair.

>moved to new city
>going to community college
>living with parents
>19 not old enough to go to bars
How do I make friends fit please help

A little down.

I lost an arm wrestling match to a dude who doesnt even lift.

I'm fairly disappointed in myself even though I know arm wrestling ability is not a proper gauge to my improvements from the last few months.

This.

I feel like a new man every time I drag that razor down the last row of shaving cream.

Bald is beautiful, especially if you are a big guy for you

Ehh so so user thanks for asking

Join a club of some description.......most people are at clubs to meet people with similar interests so there's a tacit expectation that you're there to make friends. Doesn't have to be Veeky Forumsrelated but I'd avoid autistic type endeavors (magic the gathering, starting a metal band) and aim for something which adults enjoy. I'm a member of a cycling club I also do volunteer work picking up and distributing used furniture for families on low/no income. I've made friends doing both.

Congratulations, you made a friend. How is that a bad thing? Besides, who knows how long the bf will last. Stick around.

>back to lifting

I'm sure it's because I was doing it wrong at the gym all that time (I never even made it to 2pl8 squat for five reps). But hey, at least I feel better about working out now.

Too bad everything else in life sucks
