How do I become alpha, /fit/?
Yesterday I was at a party and talked with some girls I know. Both are bangable, but nothing happened. I wasn't able to persuade them because frankly I didn't have anything to talk about. I was perfectly content sitting there not talking to anyone actually, yet still pissed I wasn't making any social gains.
>>35239018
Make an actual effort maybe?
>>35239018
You just answered your own question.
>I wasn't able to persuade them because frankly I didn't have anything to talk about
Instead of trying to "talk" to them, make it blatant that you want to bang them. Eye fuck them, touch, etc. Be aggressive.

Well done anon!
>going to the gym
>this creepy guy always says hi to me
i'm going again soon
what to do
Publicly accuse him of raping you. Instant gaol time.
Just say hi back.
Don't be socially retarded brah.
>>35238948
In my gym there is tradition that you say hi to everyone
How did he do it /fit/?
he stopped drinking beer
>>35238934
Don't remember specifics, but remember him saying he hated it and can't wait to bulk back up to be happy
>>35238934
Creatine you fucking faggot
How's your winter cut going anon? I started cutting in earnest at 206lbs, currently 186. bench went from 225 for 3 to 205 for 1 but it doesnt seem to be going down anymore, chinup's going "up" but i know thats because i'm weighing less. i don't want to talk about my squat right now
>>35238860
nightmare fuel
Who the fuck cuts during winter? That's bulk season bruv
>>35238860
Would that really be 280 pounds though? How tall is Barney? Yeah he lost fat but also gained a fuckton of muscle.
>>35238986
I've dealt with injuries and over-busy lifestyle for the last couple years, so am both too fat and lost muscle. The being too fat bothers me more, and I'm single and need to get chicks, so I'm gonna be cutting a lot. I'm at 17% now, trying to get down to 12-14 on this cut, then maybe do a small bulk, but eventually I'm hoping for 10-12%. I figure it'll take a while, and with work it's not like I can cut perfectly or fast, so my goal is to be at 10-12% by the end of May.
Why is pizza considered unhealthy? I work in a pizza store so I can get free pizza whenever so I plan on using it to bulk, but I'm hesitant because of the negative stigma.
It's tomatoes, cheese, dough, and toppings, why is it bad?
>cheese, dough
high calorie, high carb
>>35238839
It's not bad per se, but depending on where the ingredients come from, they could contain artificial crap that body doesn't need. Pizza is also loaded with calories.
>>35238839
Bad fats, alot. Sodium, alot. Bad carbs, alot.

Hallo
5' 6" manlet here
19 yrs
150 lbs
15%~ish bf
I hate my height. My dad is like 5' 3" and my mom about 5' 2". Genetics are not on my side. I want to get taller, like many guys do. I'm not asking to be a 6'5" viking like some of you giants. 5' 11" would cut it for me.
Anyone know what I can do to grow a few inches taller?
Preferably things that don't require doctor visits or surgery, but natural stuff.
>>35238479
Reroll your character
surgery.
At 19 you've done almost all the growing you're going to.
>>35238479
You are 19, man, if you are very lucky you might grow an inch, but that's it. There are no magic tricks to get you to grow. Make sure you get enough food and that's about it. Don't even bother trying snake oil stuff. You are a manlet and you are better off just accepting that.
Am I gonna make it /fit/ ?
My shitty genes suggest otherwise ;_; pic related, 6 months ago and current.
Also, progression thread.
>>35238464
strong bulk m8, keep it up
Good on you for leaving Auschwitz mode. Steady bulk going on, now you just need to squat for the summer.
I don't even know why:
(1) Anyone would wear that hat.
(2) Anyone with your body would take their shirt off at the gym.
So, at what point did you realise you were actually making it? Some event that kickstarted the "holy shit it's working" mindset?
For me, it was randomly touching my chest and realising I suddenly had pecs. Some hard muscle I could actually flex and move, and not just some flabby motionless layer between fat and ribs. I just couldn't stop touching them while flexing during the whole afternoon.
Share your feel-good stories, /fit/!
When doing pic related touched my head with my biceps.

Really? Post pic.
What do you guys do when your burning insecurity and self hate isn't enough motivation to repetitively lift metal objects anymore?
>>35238278
just cancel your membership man, if you have to ask these kind of questions over something that is completely optional in life than the best thing is to just quit.
lifting isn't for you
>>35238366
Oh I'm not talking about me lol I'm actually asking you guys
>>35238278
Take 2 scoops of preworkout
>abs
Remember /fit/ these are the standards you're trying to beat

What if it's sarcasm and it flew right over your head?
>>35238229
What if it's not and you're an idiot?
I mean she's an untalented retard the rights of a child forced to do nostalgia shows for their tragic gay fans. Cut her some slack
Why is this a thing?
>>35237941
Why is any machine a thing?
It's the kind of shit that pulls most people in and keeps them paying when they even stop going to the gym.
>>35237957
True. But then taking it to the next level and using this useless shit INCORRECTLY, I just cannot comprehend.
Is it only ever grills who do them?
I need fucking help..
I've been going to the gym for a little over 7 months now and I am making absolutely no progress. My first week there i had someone teach me a routine where you Squat, Deadlift, Bench. He said "Continue doing this and you'll see a big difference within 3 months". I did this shit for 3 months and i haven't seen any single difference, I've tried adding weight on and what not but i don't gain anything out of it.
For the past 4 months I've been experimenting with routines that I find online and little difference is made there as well.
At this point I am very close to giving up.. I eat at least 2,000+ calories a day, i tried that fitness app that you can get on your phone and ate around 3,500 calories a day for a month or two. I gained around 7-8kg but all around with the working out i saw no difference in muscle, just fat.
I don't even sweat at the gym like i did my first week, i just get tired and my muscles fatigue not being able to handle weight after the 40 minutes that I'm there.
I'll take on anything you guys give me right now. Any tips, routines ETC would be a lot of help.
