Veeky Forums sort of failed me on this, so i'll post here.
please give inspirational literature - fiction and nonfiction.
what should i read at night after daily, heavy workouts?
what books convey the same feelings as the Southpaw type of films?
or induce a profound change in perspective, like Squat Everyday / Antifragile?

Interest how much taleb has taken off. He's such a weird character, one of those 2010+ pseudophilosopher life coach type guys but with a financial market twist. He's had a significant effect on business. I'm not saying he doesn't have anything to offer, he's got a lot, but his impact is outsized. Great marketer.
Anyway. I can recommend some stuff.

First of all this will help you get over any antisemitism, and it's also about manliness and defining yourself against a community. Also read The Chosen by him.

It's about being a man, about rising above your circumstances and being good. Bonus 1950s South African setting
Important to note that reading is all well and good but ultimately action is the only thing that can make you smarter. I mean you need to acquire knowledge that you can use and make it yours. These books just put me in an emotional position of power, inspiring books like you asked for. Discipline beats motivation 100% of the time bruh.
Whatever makes you feel better, brainlet.
Just reading won't make you smarter. Memorize and utilize.

And don't forget to analyze your novels:

Thanks for this, just finished speed reading Building the Gymnastic Body. Wouldn't weight lifting help accelerate the training described?
Read The Count of Monte Cristo.

FUCKING BASED. I never thought I'd ever see a decent recommendation for a running book on this site. Daniels' Running Formula should be added to this list, as well as Pfitzinger's stuff, but otherwise excellent list.
/fitlit/ got me a girlfriend, first I got fit and met a girl at the gym who told me about her book club, then I joined her book club and got Veeky Forums. She asked me if I'd read lolita and I asked if that was the one with the dad lusting for his daughter, she said yes and I said "I'm worried if I read it it'll awaken something in me" She laughed for a long while and started hanging out with me outside the gym and book club.
We're all gonna make it friends
Kek, that could have easily gone terribly wrong
If true, that's probably why it worked. From all I've been reading/watching recently, putting yourself out there and not giving a shit about any potential consequences (as if none exist) makes girls panties instantly moist.
And really, he might have pinged her creep-o-meter and ended up not feeling welcome at the book club anymore, but that's not especially dire.
Revolt against the modern world - Julius Evola
Mein Kampf - Adolf Hitler

This is true dedication to bait
Anything bruce lee wrote. Whether you're a martial artist or not, the man knew about making a lifestyle pushing his limits.
