Veeky Forums I have a gym membership and want to lift but I don't know where to even begin and I don't want to look like a retard that spills weights like spaghetti all over the place. How do you find the courage to go and start lifting when you're the fattest piece of shit in the entire building surrounded by guys (and girls) with 0% fat who could pick you up with one hand? What machines or exercises do you do like if you were just starting out never lifted before? Where do you begin - and more importantly how do you not look like a fucktard doing this for the first time?
Read the sticky and just go and put that membership to use.

ditch your ego and realize most people will look at you like a piece of shit, but you cant blame them because you know you look like shit, and you caused it, now you have to fix it.

Who is this demon?

You're just wrong. Most people at the gym are chill and supportive. The rest keep their fucktarded comments to themselves.
Sounds like you have some deep-seated issues you need to fix, friend.

Yeah anyone who judges newfags at the gym for trying and putting in effort has some serious issues

Always remember OP nobody will judge you trying but if you quit you deserve all the shit coming to you

It can be intimidating. I was intimidated and I wasn't overweight just way out of shape. Nobody there really cares what you do. Nobody is going to sit there and go "man, look at that fat guy trying over there ha ha". Re-rack whatever weights you use. Be polite.
If you're starting from nothing it might even be difficult to work with a barbell so use some light dumbbells if applicable to that type of exercise.
