Why do people do pushups on their knuckles like this? Is it just to try and look badass or is there something to it?

If you use the palm of your hand, it's at a 90 degree angle to your wrist and puts strain on it
With your fist, or push up bars, your hand and wrist are aligned when doing pushups, and so it puts less strain on it
Personally, I can't do it with a fist,, it just hurts my knuckles and I can barely manage 10

It's more difficult for the wrist stabilizer muscles.

He was also a fucking genius. No one in history was perfect.
Even people such as Gandhi was racist. Just because someone wasn't perfect doesn't mean the lessons they teach us through learning about their experiences are invalid. I'm sure that if there is a heaven or hell I'm pretty sure they'd do anything to come back and live on earth and fix those mistakes.
tl;dr no one is perfect, accept your imperfections and work on them, don't revere anyone as perfect. We're all just humans

That's tough, but keep up hope. I've literally been in and out of treatment for at least 10 years. Been on a lot of medication. It even got to a point, where doctors wanted to put me in psychiatric hospital to prevent from killing myself.
I can honestly, without a shadow of a doubt, say that one of the very best tools to help me recover have been lifting.

Once in a thread, I told a portion of my story, one that pertained mostly to my situation at the time. I have never been one to feel sorry for myself, but every time I do, I look at this screencap from the thread. I realize no matter how hard what I go through seems, someone else thinks it is easy, and no matter how easy what I do is, someone else thinks it is hard. I just want to make sure the latter outweighs the former.

This one haunts me. When I look at how I squandered all my potential from my youth.
The worst thing is I moved away from my hometown in my teens. When I catch up with friends from there, and we see how each others lives are doing....I can see the disappointment on their face.

Make sure you keep going. I was at 104kg's of lazy fat in November last year. I was also on the verge of killing myself (a stranger actually interrupted the act).
It's 6 months and change later and I'm at 77kg's.
I still have a lot of problems (A LOT) to sort out. But I can't tell you how immeasurably better life has gotten from my perspective. And I don't mean stupid petty shit, like girls mirin' (though it's nice), or being able to wear normal clothes and shit. But the biggest thing was seeing myself change, physically in the mirror and photographs over the last few months.
Knowing that once I pushed past that initial hurdle of doubt and self pity and all that other shit, that I would wake up in a few months radically physically changed, just from forcing myself to keep going through those rough few weeks/months.
It helped me have a completely new outlook on life, once that I haven't had since I was in my early teens. Basically cementing this abstract concept of setting a goal and reaching it. Actually doing it was more motivating than anything I have ever read. And trust me, I was plagued by self doubt at the beginning. I figured I would never lose the weight. It would never happen. I'd revert to being a fat shit. Now it's the opposite, I keep getting excited about taking the next step and the next step to being a better me. I couldn't even imagine that 7 months ago.
So whatever you do dude, make sure you fight really, really hard to make it through the beginning. To hold on and ride it out, because it actually gets easier and easier once you build momentum.

Listening to Hardcore History this past few days on the history of the Mongols.
First fucking thing Genghis Khan told his sons was (to extremely loosely paraphrase); Keep YOUR kids in poverty and hardship, otherwise the faggots will go soft and instead of desiring war and conquest, they'll just sit on their asses and enjoy the spoils we earned for them.
Sure enough they grew up rich and protected and turned to fighting each other over the inheritance right when they were about to take Western Europe.

I told everyone I was going to be a doctor. I was going to go to Stanford, already accepted before my senior year in HS was over. Getting all A's, captain of the academic decathlon team, 1600 on SAT score (when 1600 was max), etc. etc.
And then I don't know what happened. Failed out of a community college instead of going to Stanford for some reason. Just barely started going back to school 2 years ago (am 28 now) but all that fucking wasted potential. I feel like I can't face anyone from before, not even my grandparents.

Bravo, motivationals/stories are nice and all, but they usually don't GET to me. This one did. Respect for this brotha, he's makin it. We're all gonna make it.

wait, so he just stopped caring, basically gave up, and then all his training coincidentally rewarded him at the right moment? doesn't seem very motivational.

Just ordered two. My only question: Why do the tanks cost more than the tees?
>>26921550
Just ordered a shirt and a tank. It might be a good idea to post this on /b/ or even /a/ to get some more support. Also, if the goal is reached, is it possible to order more? I'm thinking about buying another shirt as a gift.
>tfw you aren't swole enough to wear a tank in public
>>26921550
I got a t-shirt, and I want the hoodie, but I didn't order it yet because I don't want to spend that much at once.
I have the same question as this guy >>26931899
Can we order more afterwards, so I can get the hoodie?
>tfw found my new gym t-shirt
>>26931899
Yeah it doesn't matter if it goes over the target. So you can order more for others. I posted it on /a/ they told me to fuck off and I got reported for advertising lol. Yeah you can buy several shirts that would be fine (I originally designed it because there were no simplistic dragonball tank tops and I want one so bad).
>>26931993
Yeah you can order more afterwards. Yeah it's gonna be my gym shirt too
