Sooooo

Do you all just lift to get a girlfriend?

Like at least 50% of the reason.

well lifting won't get you a gf, but it can make you more confident. i think a lot of people are unhappy with how they look so it's a good place to start bettering yourself.

I have a fiancé. I started lifting when I quit drinking alcohol to replace it. Lifting and getting a relationship had nothing to do with each other.

I lift because I lost a gf and future wife.

It's 90% of the reason.
Actually i dont even want a girlfriend, i'd be fine with even just losing my virginity.

Fuck you op

i do this mainly for my own health. a boyfriend wouldn't be terrible either, but that's like a distant second :)

I'll fug you bro, it still counts as losing it if your taking it in the shute.

we all want happiness, and in a social setting that is life, generally finding a mate falls into that category. lifting grants you confidence in yourself, becomes enjoyable once you achieve goals and progress, and lets you wear your achievements as a token of pride. when you feel better about yourself and wear it, that is a very attractive thing to people.

I tell people i lift for myself but the real reason i lift is because i want people to look at me and think "Damn i could've looked like that guy right now if i had started working out last year"

Also because i want other men to feel inferior and because i want to feel like i can overpower any one of them in a life or death situation

...

If I have any chance of getting a hot girlfriend, I need to at least look like I'm fit

...

if you do, you are literally a vapid faggot who needs to get off this board

lifting will not fix your

>busted faces
>lack of height
>lack of social experience
>low intelligence and wit

you are hopeless and will look like this if you ever achieve your body goals

Yeah I did that for awhile too...

>Do you all just lift to get a girlfriend?
I lift for lots of reasons. girls are one of them, i'm pretty sure 90% of people who lift other than fat fuck power-lifters are at least hoping they'll get more ass by getting shredded even if it's not the main reason.

Fuck off namefag nigger

the namefag is 100% right

to some degree. being fit makes you a more worthwhile option just by being more attractive, but yeah it doesn't solve all your other flaws.

No, I have severe depression. It's really hard for me to get to the gym and push myself, but once I do I feel somewhat normal. Exercise has really helped me through this rough patch in my life.

I do it to appeal to the imginary standards set in my own mind that I imagine the female characters from my Chinese cartoons would approve of.

>lifting will not fix your
No but looking like a fat loser doesn't help at all.

I'm not a roid monkey, I'm looking for ottermode

>I'm looking for ottermode

to attract pre-pubescent girls and gay men?

To attract 18-30 year old women

Low body-fat improves facial aesthetics, and at 6'2 I'm unlikely to be anything other than otter-mode natty

I finally managed to after about 2 years of lifting little effort on my behalf

>lifting won't get you a gf, but it can make you more confident.

100% this, improve your body and confidence will follow, people find you more attractive when you're not staring at the floor

Don't forget to pose

Lifting will fix my shitty body and help with my confidence tho

Nah, I don't have enough money saved right now to get a car and be able to take said girl out and buy shit.

I mainly lift because it's something to do and somewhere to go other than work at my shitty ass job.

And I fucking love it for some reason, idk, it makes me feel good about myself.

Also, self-discipline.
Going to the gym everyday, pushing through your bodies barriers, will surely enhance the way you handle other things throughout life. I never call off work, for example, no matter how bad I want to.

Eventually will want girl though, so I guess when I start looking I'll use my body to get 'em.

>tfw jacked software engineer

I primarily need the confidence to stop being insecure and doubting all of my social-moves I make. (Even though I look confident to others, it's chaotic in my head.)

There are quite a few actually. Autism is great for both lifting and computers.

nice defeatist attitude man, i'm sure you'll succeed in whatever you seek to obtain.

>>last year
>he hasn't reached the point where people just give up trying to compare

Seriously, I've had several guys with 12+ months of training lump me with the 'I'll never be like THAT guy, but I can try match their effort' people, like Savickas or Yates.

It's seriously pathetic how low most people aim, if a 6'1" 240lbs dude is seen as beyond their reach.
I barely even squat double bodyweight and can't OHP my BW anymore.

But yeah, I've got a wife, who lifts and does muai thai and a toddler firstborn who deadlifts adjustable dumbells and has used every single pulldown/back work machine in the gym

>toddler firstborn who deadlifts adjustable dumbells and has used every single pulldown/back work machine in the gym
Wat

This guy runs LambdaConf.

So don't fix anything at all?

Fuck you.

I lift because my gf was nagging me to do sport, and it was gym or dance classes...

...

>will look like this if you ever achieve your body goals
And?

0% of the reason I lift is a girlfriend.

50% because it's fun and feels nice
50% because I feel more confident when my body looks better.

>I lost a gf and future wife.

get another one, faggot.

>replying to a reply
>being a faggot

Well aren't you a special snowflake.

Nah, I work at home growing organic crops, takes quite a lot of physical effort so the extra strength is pretty usefull to me.

I hate how I look body wise and I feel weak and physically intimidated by other men, which translates to zero self esteem and no confidence.
Someone please tell me it gets better when you get big.

No, I am completely anti social. The idea of being in a relationship is just bizarre to me.

I lift because the guy I was sucked and I hated him. Even though drinking beer, getting high, eating junk and watching cartoons every day was fun, I couldn't look at myself in the mirror.

The guy I am now is too tired and busy to evaluate himself. He now has a stomach that feels nice to rub in bed, but I know he is still too autistic and reclusive to have a woman. Just read this post for fuck sake.

Getting a girlfriend is not all it's cracked up to be. She costs money, time, attention, and you can't do nearly all the things you want to do when you're single. I love my girlfriend but I'm not gonna lie, being single was way more fun. The constant attention and consistent sex is great, but there is something so freeing about being single which makes me miss it.

It's going to be a long time before I can get the social cred to get women solely so in the mean time I need to max out my looks as soon as possible. It helps with confidence and girls like that so it's a positive feedback loop from that point.

I had girlfriends before picking up a thing. I don't live to please women in any way because I've had no trouble with my choice of them. I lift because I want to be the best I can be, more because my dream requires me to be fit. If you lift for women, you're probably in for a rude awakening.

I've never tried anything sexual with any human being ever. I'm lifting since 3 years and I never showed my body around or wearing tight clothes, I lift purely and entirely for myself, I have a home gym where I spent at least 3 hours/week in. I couldn't care less about things like a girlfriend, I already had the deep depression phase over 8 years where I asked myself "What is wrong with me? Why no girl wants me? Why I have so less friends?", since I've began to lifting, there was no thinking about that.

I lift with my boyfriend... does that count?

Holy shit this

I also wear baggy clothes most of the time

>being a namefag
Honestly kys panzer you attention seeking whore

If you're a qt trap shouldn't take long
>be my gf(bf) pls

Why would I lift for someone who only appreciates my money and attention. I'm lifting so I become more confident in myself.

I lift to motivate my gf to go to the gym with me.
She has god tier genetics but couldn't be bothered to go before she met me.
It pays off, everytime we fuck and I notice a new part getting definition I tell myself "I made this" and feel so good.

well it's hard when you live in a conservative area, and have massive social anxiety lol. i only have one friend and she's moving away :/

oh well. adversity breeds strength? :P

Probably less than 10% of the reason I lift. Like any normal guy I like the idea of being more attractive to women, so it has to be in there somewhere.

But mostly I want to get swole because I never have before, and at my age I need to do it now or it will never happen. Also regular exercise makes me feel better in just about every way, in all aspects of my life.

Increasing my chances of living longer and being lucid and healthy as a senior citizen is a goal, because I don't want to be a crazy, weak, frail old man who is in constant pain and confusion and needing hospital visits all the time. I want to enjoy being an old man.

So I guess pic related. Even when I was a young guy in the Army I was just skinny, not really fit. I want to better myself, to experience having muscles and being stronger than most people around me.

>get married and then divorced raped
idiot

>to attract pre-pubescent girls and gay men?
Which do you prefer?

To prepare for the race war and to take pride in my race

I started lifting 3 years into my relationship with my gf. I never lifted for girls, lift for yourself people.

What?

u r fukd m8

While you lift, she's gonna actually do dance classes and get D from some ottermode ballroom macho who waxes his chest and swings his hips around.
Hell, I'm 180cm\90kg semi-chubby DYEL and I've fucked some gymbro's tall, lean, smoking hot 9.5\10 gf half a year ago while he was at BB comp. And my pussy game is only probably in the top 50 of our sprawling dance community. I've seen dadbod dudes drive away with different hotties every night for the whole summer.

Jesus Christ. I might be in love with this girl.

...

>attention
So much this.

I lift because it makes me feel good about myself. It has the added benefit of making me more fuckable. I have no interest in a girlfriend or wife. I doubt I will ever subject myself to an actual relationship again.

Best of luck to you user.

For what it's worth, I live in Kentucky and would kill for a trans gf or trap bf.

Glad to hear it. Like the world needs more fit neckbeards polluting the gene pool. Tyrone has already taken your job birthing masterrace mullatos

If she can leave you she's not wife material, remember that

I lift for myself, no one els e

What part of lost do you people not understand, she isn't just down the street and not in my life anymore she is fucking gone.

>tfw a girl will never want you to protect her from the world and anyone that might hurt her in return for her forever faithful love

NO! I lift for greatness. I will become the most aesthetic individual to ever live. And nothing is going to get in my way.

lmao I dm'd this girl on instagram and went out on a date with her

>Tfw meet hot as fuck girl on tinder
>My 10/10 dream girl, thick in all the right places
>Beautiful warm personality, gorgeous face and hair
>We fugg 3 times a day everyday for 6 months straight
>Supports me fully, is totally dedicated to me and making me happy
>Meet families, move in together after 1 year
>End up pregnant, she wants to keep it, I don't
>Have beautiful baby girl together, life is incredible for first 6 months
>Start to get anxiety and depression because I realize this girl is way out of my league despite having kids together
>Totally insecure
>Start to treat her like shit because of my insecurities
>1.5 years later we break up
>I spend my days banging hookers and paying child support
>She hasn't dated anyone since me, she says she wants us to be together still but I'm too embarrassed to go back
>Don't want anyone but her because nobody will be as dedicated to me as she was

You had it all and you blew it, you stupid fuck.

According to your post you're blowing it every day you don't try to get back with her

Getting a gf will ruin your gains. They just want to sit around eating icecream all day. Do you want to look like a homo?

dreams on the internet are nice aren't they?

Kys

I have a qtie gf and look pretty damn solid.

I'd say 15~17% of the board lifts for girls or start that way
Fit is a diverse board and there is around 6 type of people who use it
>the memers
>the dyel who decided to lift for girls
>the fatty who wants to be get shredded or healthy (some lift for girls too)
>the powerlifters
>juicers
And finally the oldfags, the ones who made it but live a depressing life thinking about her

you fags are fucking pathetic. lifting is literally the worst thing you can do to impress people

>tfw 4 years of natty gains and look pretty good but still thingken of her

>Forgetting to mention the proud whites that are preparing for the race war

> I lift for girls because I want sex
> I want sex because it's the most intimate of acts
> I want intimacy because I want to be wanted
> I want to be wanted because daddy left
> I lift because I have dad issues

I just say I'm lifting for health now because it's easier than having to leave conversations after telling them the truth.

I actually got my current gf before lifting. I lift now because it's something I've always wanted to do, and I want her to feel like she's lucky.

To expound on this, so much of women's happiness in a relationship is based on their peers perception of their chosen partner. I want her to be able to bring me around her peers and be proud to show them that she has outperformed.

So you lift to keep her.

male wrists+hands no ty

I'm lifting because I work in the financial/programming sector. And jerking off 2 times a day doesn't cut it anymore.

I lift for my 3d waifu who will never know that I exist but she inspires me to better myself anyway, because it helps me sell my fantasy to myself if I'm someone she would physically desire

> tripfagging for attention on a mexican shark-skinning forum

just kill yourself my dude

> tripfagging this hard

literally nobody gives a shit who you are.

Your a sick freak, man

>Vegan
>Tripcodes
>I work out for health

Fuck me. Someone get this cunt a valium.

I lift so I can cheat on my girlfriend when I'm on holiday.

What do you have against prepubescent girls?

STANDING HERE, I REALISE

I already have a gf, I lift to get noticed by more attractive women to keep her on edge.

Also she'd probably appreciated a more attractive body on me.

Why is she so good looking.
