How many gains will you make in 2017?
Honesty:
2017 will be the year i actually START going to the gym.
I've been here lurking this whole year. I guess i'm ready.
>>39852852
You've been ready since before you started going on /fit/.
>>39852881
That's some oriental martial arts movie motivational shit. Thank you, friend.
I mean that i've been reading a lot before spending my time and money. Let' s go.
Happy NY
Started lifting to get out of a depression. It kinda worked for awhile then my wife told me a week ago that she was leaving me. I already hated my fucking life, so I took the Internets advice and downed a bunch of sleeping pills. I woke up the next day like nothing happened at all except I felt a little more sleepy than usual. So I'm even a failure at killing myself now. On a train riding through downtown Tokyo right now, and I can't think of a single reason to not go buy some more pills and have another go at it.
Does lifting ever really help or am I holding onto false hope for it to help pull me out of this?
Lifting is good for you, but you have to chance how you think anon.
Lifting helps physical health, but you need to make your mental health better.
>>39852441
If you want to die just convince the Americans to nuke you again. If you survive that you may be a superhero.
On a more serious note lifting does help, just because it gives you something to focus on besides your problems. It will help but by itself it won't drag you out, try picking somebody up at the gym if you're single now.
>>39852441
lifting gage me cofnidence.
confidence give mez bitches.
the new bitches make me forget the old bitches.
bitches attention make me feel like a god.

Memes aside, is ICF a decent alternative to Starting Strength?
No no it fucking isn't
>>39852407
It's Stronglifts with a bunch of random accessories thrown in.
jesus he looks awful

Anyone actually interested in helping fellow /fit/izens overcome fear of women and utilize their gains to the fullest when it comes to attraction? In desperate need of confidence gains desu.
>>39852293
Read motherfucker. All the advice you need is already written down. Read and take action!
You don't even need to read, just take action. Crash and burn.
>>39852473
I've read, still doesn't let me communicate with normies
they talk about all the cool things they do with their friends (trying new restaurants, traveling, paying, etc), i can't even relate ( i have no friends)
>>39852520
So why don't you travel around? Try new things?
Go check out some paintball game, go hiking and talk to the people you meet, cooking classes...
Just do shit, even if you are alone. If it feels uncomfortable do it!
>tfw havent worked out in a year
>tfw I'll start again tomorrow
>tfw will be branded as a newfag in my gym
JUST
Gotta start somewhere
>>39852192
You're no longer one of us. You are a newfag again. It's your fault, deal with the consequences.
>>39852226
this
stick to curls OP and dont u dare touch my squat rack
kthx
1.70 mts.
brown taco (but I live in a taco nation, not a white one).
65 kg.
Going to hit 5 gym months when I start college in february.
basic gains, nothing impressive, 17% bf.
So, with all this information, wanna ask:
I'm going to enter college soon.
I'm 27 years old.
Not a beta, I enjoy talking and meet new people, and got once a girl phone in a bus.
Going for STEM and will try to make money in college, make around 250 USD per month.
The question is the following.
How easy is to land new fresh pussy every week in college? (taco college in taco country).
What should be my target of new pussy for every week?
>>39852003
Spic
>>39852003
What taco country? In my experience latinas are easy as fuck, but I'm white.
>>39852040
colombia.
>>39852029
yeah fag.
I'm a spic.
but the average here of males is 1.70
>tfw no SIR comic this year
feels bad man
FUCKING SIR POST YOUR COMIC REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
SIR pls ;_;
Just when you thought 2016 couldn't possibly get any worse
Would you rather be Bruno Mars or 189cm/6.2 tall?
Am 6.2
Would rather have Bruno's level of success.
>>39851821
Bruno desu, I don't dance that well :/
>>39851821
Who wouldn't want Bruno Mars' level of success? Anyone would rather be 5' 5" with hundreds of millions of dollars than 6'+ and poor.
>>39851575
If I wanted humor I'd just ask you what your one rep maxes are.
>>39851578

What is this voodo? Anyone else?
I always have to carry conversations, Im 20 says im now and girls are starting and carrying conversations with me. One qt even spilled her spaghetti with me, and Ive known her for years. Theres something to this semen retention
>>39851224
>What is this voodo?
It's called 'placebo effect'. No-fap is a TROLL/MEME and will HURT you in the long run. Don't fall for it, boys.
>>39851276
I dont believe you. I feel good on nofap. I think you just dont have any self control and cant give up your trap porn
>>39851293
there are people who have a fapping problem and those who dont. If you dont have a problem you wont understand the need to stop. Nofap is only good if you have an unhealthy reliance/addiction to it.
>NY Resolutions thread for 2017.
Just took this picture 10 minutes ago. I am 82.5 kilograms (181lbs) at 171cm (5'7) at 29 years old.
Goal weight is now: 68 to 70kg (150-154lbs). I should reach my goal body-weight somewhere between July 1st and July 15th on 1,800 calories per day.
What's your 2017 goal?
you could bear twins with those hips
>>39851163
Yeah I store a lot of fat in that region. My waist is like 38 inches right now at 82kg.
It was 29 inches last time I was 68kg. It's literally like I have 2 slabs of fat on my sides.
I could post my pic but I don't want anyone to vomit. I might have to lose 100 lbs but that's at most, it might be 80
I celebrated my last day of binging with just a big bag of black bean tortillancbips and chinky salsa. Anything sweeter/fatter could trigger my peripheral artery disease.
Last year I lost 110 lbs in 11 months with just diet but back on about 70 in 10 months
How do I fix :(
I got it from Rich pianas concentration curls for 30 rep sets :((
damn son, you gonna die soon
>>39850886
Vitamin E oil twice per day will help. Nothing will cure it. Stretch marks are scar tissue. Treat them with the vitamin E oil while they are fresh and purple. If you let them mature then nothing helps.
tldr - your reward for gains, son
>>39850917
What about laser surgery?
i can't eat without something cold that's not water is this really that bad? i haven't been noticing any differences.
>>39850392
yeah it's a woman's drink.
pic related is what men drink
>>39850392
I used to drink diet coke a lot. I started to notice if I drank more than about 6 in one day I would get a mad case of vertigo.
Sugar drinks, and sugar substitutes are all shit tier. There are a few alternatives that aren't complete shit... but simple water is your best friend.
Luckily I'm on hard well water that isn't contaminated with chlorine/flouride/pissedoutdrugs etc... and when it's cold it tastes great.
>>39850392
>can't
you mean won't, you fucking pussy
