I was overweight all childhood and highschool ending up 100lbs over weight. In college I lost everything and lived as a 6'3" god of fitness and health. After college it crept back on 20 pounds at a time. Exercise was a memory. Until I found myself 200 lbs over weight. Then with the guidance of /fit/ I lost it all, ran 5 miles a day and lifted aesthetically. For over a year I lived again as a god, redeemed of iniquity. Then, for no reason i can ascertain whatsoever I quit my routine and gained it all back. I have done that 4 times in the space of 12 years (I am old). That means in my lifetime I have lost and gained back 1000lbs.

I know alot about diet and exercise, its actually nit hard at all. After the 3rd time if loosing and gaining it all back I was no longer afraid of the weight, or the weight loss. It was almost as if with 6 months I could change my entire body. Its almost a God like feeling. However I know now that I have probably done ridiculous amounts of damage to my organs. In all likely hood I will die of complete organ failure of some sort in 20 years or less no matter what, even if I live per/fit/ly for the rest of my life. And that has me thinking. What path do I choose? Either way it I am going to die young. Do I continue down the dark path of indulgence and gross excess? Or do I turn back into the light of purity and health? Loosing this excess 200 lbs for the 5th time could possibly kill me. I will be halfway out on my evening run and just collapse in a ditch. My toned and glistening body reflecting the car lights as they pass not even stopping to gaze upon the body of the fallen hero. I have seen it in my mind. I know it to be true.

So I am decided to make my 5th attempt to achieve perfection. I am resolved that If I must die soon it will be as a perfect statue, a golden god in the final form. If the day I look the beat in my entire life is the day they put me in my casket then so be it. It begins again at midnight.

Walk into gym manlet closely follows, scan into gym manlet closely follow, ponder which beverage to purchase, manlet dives for liquid first, his lunge is successful grabs drink before me, storms to front desk, I saunter behind.

Me 'err no I haven't, just parched desu.' She bites lip an gives me change. 8/10 'cya anon' I raise arm with back turned. SLUT. Later leave gym give her a wink she blushes, me pumped rock solid. Those gains.

Anyone know a good way to improve form or make sure my form isn't bad?
I didn't lift as a kid so I'm mainly just trying to copy what I see others do.

So I've been lifting without following a set program. I started trying to do Blaha's program of 8 exercises per session 3 times a week.
But last week I've been so busy and tired from missing sleep, I've had to cut short all my sessions last week.

Can i do say 4 lifts in a session 5/6 days a week? i feel it would fit my schedule better .

Is rest pause/emom a meme or is it the dream scheme?

Just did 10x2 squats in half the time it would take me to do my usual 4x5. Also my form didnt seem to drop off as much which typically happens in the last one or two reps.

The only reason I started to lift was in the hopes to stop being disgusted by my body, but so far nothing has helped. I was overweight so i cut and successfully went down to like 6% fat but I still saw a fat fuck in the mirror even though all online charts indicated that I was in Auschwitz mode. It took some time to convince myself that I needed to bulk and build some muscle. Im afraid that I'll never be happy with my body even if i get fit.

I have a cardiac stress test and an MRA in 3 months.

I weight 208 and am 5'11 and would like to drop as much weight and blood pressure, and get as good of cardio stats as possible between now and then.

What do?
