If I'm a 5'9" manlet, is it even worth lifting,

5'9" is not small when you're not on this homosexual fitness imageboard

go for otter mate

I'm 5'8 125 lbs, run 40 miles a week and lift 4 times a week, but I try to limit my calories (currently on a slow cut) to stay lean.

muscles just looks try hard on small men. You know when you see a really small man step out of a giant truck? That's what manlets with muscles look like, overcompensating, doesn't fit.

A tall guy with muscles looks natural, it's expected.

Now a small man with glasses and a briefcase, that looks okay. He can be an accountant or something

It doesn't matter because you will always be a manlet. This is the same shit as when girls say "oh I don't wanna lift because then I'll get all muscely and gross looking."

Go fucking lift. You're not getting taller, so you might as well try to get shredded.

The only time people will think you're overcompensating is if you go full gorilla mode. Being fit is expected of men.

Anyway, 5'9" isn't short unless you're in Sweden or something.

weemen or manlets aren't technically "men"

>>35211639
Many great men in history have been below average height. Many wastes of life have been tall.

There's a hell of a lot more to being a good man than being tall. It does make some things easier though.

This anon is 5'7

People can assume whatever they want of me, I just want to look like a navy seal aka pic related I'm 5'6

Obviously it would be nice to be taller and I'll admit my dating pool for girls is definitely smaller because I'm shorter than most guys but I'm autistic anyways and even if I was 6'0 I'd probably still be a 19 y/o virg

So I'm just gonna keep building my body the best I can and you and everyone on this board should do the same

>>35211556
Yeah in 5'10 but no one outside this board has ever mentioned my height

I don't think I'll look weird if i weight under 180

>>35211654
>Many great men in history have been below average height.

nope, they were typically average or tall for their era in history, i.e Napoleon.

It's only if we compare them to our standards that they are seen as short.

>There's a hell of a lot more to being a good man than being tall.

Who said anything about being "good"?
Women can be good, but they aren't technically "men" either. Just like manlets and little boys.

women don't want their kids to be short manlets.

Whoever heard a parent brag about how short their kid was? "Hey neighbor, what a strapping young kid you got, what is he? 5'5? 5'6?!"

It's shameful.

>>35211737
They wouldn't brag their kid is short but they sure as fuck wouldn't talk shit about him

Jesus you people really are retarded

Fuq dat shit and lift, youll outlift most guys in a small amount of time.. Im 5'9 and stronger than like all the tall bitches at my gym

>5'9"

I'm standing at 5'8" and I don't give a fuck about my height. You're just an insecure fag OP, won't matter if you where taller, you would still carry that beta within you.

>>35211570
Literally the opposite is true

>>35211539
Brah would you rather be small with muscles or small and a rake? Simple answer

>>35211539

Thats the most average height imaginable. Troll harder

>>35211539
if you're on the internet even a 6'2 is considered a manlet. fuck this shit and you're an idiot if you let that shit get to you.
oh yeah. >>35211556
just like that guy said.

a friend of mine has now the single hottest russian chick i've ever seen. he's not even tht muscled and on top of that he's...i dunno what that is in inches but i think he's around 165cm?
doesn't matter. it shouldn't matter.
i feel like everyone is trying to check someones insecurity by mentioning height.
everytime i hear someone complaining about manlets if it's a guy or a chick i instantly tell them to stfu even though i'm tall myself. most of my friends are kind of small but that doesn't give you the right to make them feel bad.
should i do the same thing with women and small breasts? or if someone has brown eyes<blue eyes?
i think that's all the same category. just don't give a fuck. i can't believe someone has to point this out for you.
just stay fit mate.

>>35211556
Can confirm. I'm 5'9", and I've had girls guess my height as taller than I actually am. I've even had people say "you're a pretty big guy". It's a confidence thing, despite what this board tells you.

>>35213355
This board is right on one thing tho ; obviously tall people (6'2 and above) look taller than average height no matter what. And it is an advantage. It's just not that big of a deal.
