What makes a man tough or hard?
Sure some of us are athletically big but how well could you do if some guy slabs your girls ass in the club?
Does tattoos or clothes maketh the man? Or maybe training in boxing?
I want to know, I'm getting gains but i STILL feel like a boy in a mans body and if we're honest bros, i just feel out of my depth all the fucking time, I don't tell anyone i just suck it up, but work, studying, my girlfriend
TLDR: How do I get tough?
>>41252226
Toughness is internal, not external.
If you do "tough guy" shit without changing your mindset you are just a poser.
Learn to stand up for yourself and to say no. That's the first step.
>>41252226
martial arts gives you confidence, but you need to be physically strong to be able to exercise your martial arts in a real world situation. hard to say anon, toughness is primarily how much pain or battering you can endure, so if you cant take a punch to the face, keep exercising and work those neck muscles. the appearance doesn't make the man but it does represent you, so if you want to LOOK tough then thats the way to go.
>>41252226
I feel like "toughness" comes from a place of complete confidence. Many a times you'll see people throwing off mean glares in the street whilst walking and puffing their chest to demonstrate publicly that they are THE man (lord knows I used to do that for an embarrassingly long time).
That confidence gives birth to a relaxation and peace of mind that cannot be bought or bargained for, it's something that is earned. Take the following video as an example:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V-s53vL19aE
Might be a poor way to illustrate my example, but let me get to it. This is a man who can walk into 99% of the rooms on the planet and kill most men with his bare hands. Yet in this video, which perfectly encapsulates the entirety of the personality he crafted, he's calm. Perfectly calm, not once does he walk in a pseudo-confident way, he's complete and utter relaxation. That relaxation, I believe, comes from a place of hard work and dedication to one self.
>i just feel out of my depth all the fucking time
And you'll feel that way until you don't have to anymore. What you posted is good, you have to read a lot if you don't want to feel lost in terms of discussions. But if you're going on about physicality alone, lifting isn't enough. I practise MMA and without I used to feel just like that, out of my element and that any dude bigger than me could slap my head off. Not fearing, mind you, more aware that it's a real possibility and that would make me take a step back several times.
So yeah, take up some full contact combat sports if you want another element of pure confidence in your life.
All and all, a combat sport coupled with lifting and reading will eventually lead you to that zen place I talked about above, where one exudes confidence and toughness without the necessity of faking it. You'll notice even your speech patterns change once you get past a certain point.
>tfw been skipping cardio the last year
I hate running so god damn much and I can't make myself do it consistently. Any tips on how to enjoy it more?
do other types of cardio?
>>41252225
jump rope is arguably as good as running and you can constantly get better.
>>41252238
Somebody stole my bike and I don't have money for a new one and doing cardio in the gym is the most boring thing imaginable
>Have been funny friendzoned fat guy my entire life
>Been losing noticeable weight recently and started lifting a couple months ago
>Most of my female friends have been either ignoring me, giving me mean looks, bragging about their boyfriends, etc in front of me
>Been ignoring female "friends" that rejected me a while back and they are mad that I dont talk to them or afraid to talk to me
>The few that haven't been salty as fuck that are already married are telling me I look good and am more handsome now
What's happening? They used to be nice to me and nothing about my attitude has changed.
>>41252151
They used you to feel better, they watched your fatass while thinking "thank god I'm not a fucking whale" and now they're pissed that you're no longer a fat fuck.
>>41252151
maybe your attitude has changed without you realizing it in your process of getting /fit/? something to consider. also girls or maybe the boyfriends may perceive you now as a threat. find some new girls
>>41252181
This.
Op they're probably fucking pissed that they're stuck with some shit that's probably not as stronk or fit as you're becoming.
Since I began lifting I've had the same thing happen on my end. Give it time and soon you'll likely be knee deep in puss
Keep it up bro.
We're all gonna make it.
The roaches got in my protein again
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>41251855
>not eating the roaches for those nuclear gainz
You know those things have lids, right?
>>41251917
Yes i left the cup closed overnight... the small ones got it
Deadlifts on leg day or on back day? Help a brah out.
on your lower split
thank me later
>>41251852
Back day. On leg day your quads and posterior chain will be tired from squats, and thus it will be very difficult to maintain proper form on both lifts. Separating them allows you to go hard at both.
The real question is, what day should you train overhead press in a PPL routine?
>>41251882
Yea you're probably right. Doing deadlifts after having done squats and leg press is quite exhausting desu.
What's the best beginner workout?
> read the sticky faggot
I'd rather know what type of progress you experienced with your workouts not just to read the sticky
Read the sticky faggot.

Stop being a lazy fuck desu

I eat whatever I want, whenever I want, in whatever quantity I want.

>tfw almost every Oxford college has its own tiny private gym

redpill me on strechmarks
stretchmarks mean that you got shit done
>>41251107
Drink more water. They never go away.
dermaroll and bio-oil make them go away.
How does it feel knowing when (IF) you get a gf a PUA is going to SWOON her?
All it takes is 2 minutes of SMOOTH talking and you're getting KEKED 10pm friday night.
How can you even compete with guys like this? you know who I'm talking about, Legends like Matador, J-DAWG and even the great (((MYSTERY))).
What's /fit/s opinion on PUAs and the community?

Good technique tips
There are too many negative threads on /fit/ right now. Lets change this. Tell me about the moment you realized you were making it, the moment when going to the gym finally felt like it was making a difference for you in a positive way.
Ill start simply by saying eating healthy has helped my IBS immensely, and when i had a normal poop it felt great.
I'm not gonna pretend that I'm in some sort of blissful "making it" state (whatever the fuck that is)
but i'll share some positivity
>Working a good job making $20/hour starting with tons of upward mobility opportunities right out of college doing IT
>Got laid the other night from a Tinder girl (she was weird, not gonna talk to her again)
>Met another girl from France who is here on internship. She is here for 2 months. She wants me to be her 2 month American boyfriend
>Cutting is going well
>Dad is proud of me
So yea. All things considered I'm alright
looked in the mirror today and didnt want to kill myself for a few seconds :D

Very tough to call, if AJ wants to win he's going to have to get him out of there in the early rounds.
AJ will win in the first 4 rounds OR Klitschko will win if if goes long
