Fucking rest.

But if so much time should be attributed to rest, why don't I see the majority of people just doing nothing in the weights area?

This, just vaporized 8ml of preworkout.

Home gym here. I basically watch some shit on my TV while I lift and rest.

pros:
I can lift more and it isn't boring
can finally watch the stuff I else never have time to

cons:
whenever I have to laugh while training I am lacking a proper form

2 min Fap for testosterone gains

>tfw you just rest and not Fucking rest

dyel cat lmao

I do a mini recovery cycle. I eat couple of meals and sleep good 8-9 hours to recover fully.

#DESTROYED

I use to just look at my phone in between for my first few years lifting.

Recently I started approaching people near me, introducing myself and having a quick chat.

I thought I hated socialising but now that I've started doing it more often I'm beginning to like it. Now I actually know a lot of people at my gym instead of being the autistic mute.

I spoke to 3 new people today, actually had decent interactions.

I'm definitely what they would call a "hard case" in that I was shut in for 10 years playing World of Warcraft. Feels like I'm slowly turning into a normalfag now, socialising gets easier and easier. Who knows I might actually start going out to social places soon, maybe level up my social skills in the gym abit more first!

Go to bathroom and take major poo.

Stare at myself in the mirror with a lifeless look on my face

this makes me happy

Good on ya, user

Really good stuff. I'd fucking hate to go back to a commercial gym.

Talk with gym buddies.

I jam out with my headphones on

Stare at the ceiling/floor.

Sit down and breathe heavy. Or changing weights on BB/DB's.

>homegym masterrace

Wish I had one of those where I live. Best we have here is a metroflex, but the place is full of wannabes and it's obnoxious

Piss, shit and drink water.

Look at my phone while yawning and taking sips of water from the fountain in my basketball shorts after I do OHP in the squat rack on leg day.

Sets are plural because there's rest

Home gym here.

Dance to the song I'm listening to. Usually bumps my heart rate but I can't resist.

Read articles from the Jacobin. Link them priorities.

Just described how ass my community center is. 1 rack, no platforms
Are there such things as niche gyms like this with running tracks? I got me a lot of hate for cardio machines

Kys my man. Unless you vape ironically, in that case my b

>Are there such things as niche gyms like this with running tracks?
No. You can run anywhere you want to, no need to do it at the game.

Drink water

Am i the only one who listens to audiobooks in the gym?

>Mental Gains alongside Physical Gains

>not having a motorized cock-pump to suck you off lift

I will admit though sometimes people wonder why there's a *whirring* noise and something is flapping about under my shorts. They're just mirin' though.

I take the panties I stole from my roommate and huff them like an inhaler

Sauna.

thnik about life

Autistically stare at the wall, hoping people won't look at me

reeeeeEEEEEEEE

>I'm still stuck in the WoW hole
>I got a home gym instead of a gym membership
>Making good progress working out and running, but still socially inept

I literally said "you too" to a neighbor that said he was impressed with my progress when I ran into him while running yesterday. Just kill me.

I do another set of increased weight. Makes my working sets seem a lot easier.

Snapchat to your spat hoes, DUH!!!

I play shitty Japanese mobile games

I usually yawn, take a sip from my water bottle, or look at the ground.

Because the majority of people in gyms (I'm talking like above 95%) never push themselves, they think that going 'too far' is bad, and they lift the same 5 pounds dumbbells for the 3-4 months they bother going to the gym.

In every gym there's never going to be more than one, maybe two guys at a time who are actually on routines that require 5-minute rests

People doing 5-10lb puzzle me. Especially fat people. If they're successful they're going to be moving less weight over time instead of more.

>Resting between sets

That's why OP said setS you fuckwit.

Sounds awful
I've been at the same gym for over 2 years and I don't even make when contact with the other regulars

Eye contact*

>What do you do between sets?
I look down at my feet, then look up at the ceiling because I avoid chats with people. I also don't ever look at people's face when I'm walking around the gym, it's annoying. People try their hardest to make a long eye contact as we are walking by but I always look away or look at my phone.

I look at gifs of high-test women until I get a throbbing cock.

>What do you do between sets?
pace around and feel my hairline while I worry that the added test and dht from lifting is most certainly making me go bald

look at the ground

...are you me? I swear I fucking do this a thousand times a day, slowly feeling my hairline give way. I dont wanna be bald Veeky Forums, help me

Collect phone numbers

thousand-yard stare x F

EMOTM : take a drink & mark which set I'm on
EOMOTM : since these are heavier, pray for death
30s rest : check to see if still alive, then next set

5-10 minute rests : lay on floor dead for 3-8 minutes, slowly get up, setup for next set

I dont remember making this post wtf?!

>baldness is actually caused by insecure betas rubbing their hairlines down

rly makes u ponder

>you too
I am a social guy and comfortable around people, but I still say this shit regulary.

>between sets

I count to 15 or 30 in my head depending how tired I feel, what the fuck kind of vacation are you taking between sets?

>15-30 second rests

Found the NYR lifter.

Nah I'm just not trying to spend an hour doing 1 lift.

It's objective that if you only need 15-30 seconds rest then your weight isn't heavy enough.

It's objective that your DYEL as fuck if you need to rest between sets for longer than a minute.

I put back my equipment and take out the equipment I need for my next set.

Stare into the abyss.

Stretch

Monitor my heartrate and breathing, contemplate form, check my rest timer on my phone, drink water. Only check phone if 5 minute rest period. No headphones, they get in the way and i dont want them affecting my balance.

Every now and then i catch myself in the mirror and notice how old, balding, and unimpressive I look. But then i snap back to thinking about form.

I vape creatine

kek

I play with my semi-chubby until I'm hard, it's fun edging between sets, then going back to doing a set and picking up where I left off.

Sometimes I tuck it in my waistband and go and do bench presses, my shirt hikes up just enough for the tip to peek out ever so slightly it looks like a slip.

I either look at my phone or, if there's a grill nearby, pretend to look at my phone but actually look at her bum in the mirror.

Only decent thing about the city I moved to is the locally owned gym. Literally a hole in the wall and machines and free weight area are cramped as fuck.

It's literally comfy as shit and it's a close knit community. Wouldn't trade it for the fucking world

They even have a functional strength room and a boxing ring stuffed into their respected corners

Shit's fucking fantastic

Wanna know how I can tell you started lifting in 2017?

/r/ing this pasta

>not supersetting everything

I do supersets so in between sets I'm doing another set

Hells yeah. WE know what's up
>mein negger

Show pics

Drink water and walk around if the equipment I'm using is occupied. I've got a little card with my program on it that I have with me at the gym so I sometimes pretend to study that instead of just staring into space austistically.
