Unless you take roids, you should not workout 6 times a week mate, it will fuck you up. (unless its 3-4 days lifting and the rest days light cardio)

inb4 cardio will kill you meme

When I was in high school I would have never ever joined the military. Then my friend told me about his $20,000 signing bonus for the guard and I changed my time real quick, went to basic, found out I loved it, and wished I'd gone active. Now I only get to go once a month. Basically do some research about what it entails. The military is like being on a wrestling team, kind of. Similar discipline and self control, just more.

>Stand by for update.
Confronted my mom about who my real dad is. She didn't really react much and avoided my questions. Dad on the other hand went mental and told me to show some respect. Stuff got pretty heated and long story short, he threw me out.
My mom called me after and explained a bit. Apparently she and dad had a fight back in the days and she had gone back to her ex. I'm the result of that. 'Dad' is still furious and I'm not welcome home for Christmas, but mom says she can arrange it so I can meet her ex, my real dad. What the fuck do I do now?

remember to take a 1 week break after training for a long period of time, after a while your muscles will adapt to your routine and taking a break not only allows full recovery, but it can help you break through a plateau.

dont overtrain

>tfw I'm 19 and a 14-year-old girl sovereignly holds the number one place on my potential wife list

She's smart, beautiful, fit, represents the same Christian denomination as I do, and her hobbies include reading, writing and music, so we seem to have much in common. I've heard pretty good singers, but she has the most beautiful voice I've heard. How do I proceed, and when is the acceptable time to do so? She lives in a different town, so I don't meet her very often, and we've never really talked or spent time without other people around.

>change a lot as they grow up

Yeah thats kind of an issue. Shes gonna go to HS raves and sleep around with the football team anon. After that its an all to familiar path to becoming a basic bitch like all the other 19yr olds you know. The only way to avoid that is to be way hotter than anyone else she knows (not like its hard to look better than a 16yr old dude lets be real).

>>35338308
Girls tend to develop more early than boys. Guys reach their full potential at maybe 25 or even later, whereas girls that age have been pretty much the same since their late teens. If a 14-year-old girl does very well in school, has productive hobbies, actively serves in her congregation and is all-around a good, promissing young woman, I doubt she'll change that much. Maybe for the better.

I feel strong. Inside, and out.

>>35338294
Yeah.......my problem is that I want to get lean but I also don't want to lose what little gains I made on my bulk. Plus I'm home for the holidays so I have ample opportunity to load up on nice food.

anyone else use facebook as lifting motivation?

seeing all these people get fatter and uglier is amazing motivation to keep hitting the gym. I dont want to be like these people at all.

>>35338446
losing gains is a meme, you don't need second breakfast and elvensies you're not a hobbit, drinking over a liter of liquor a day is full blown lifelong alchy status.

Things aren't really working out for her on this one. Never thought I'd actually come out ahead in a breakup, ever, but I did. Oops. Sorry bitch. Should have listened when I said you'd never find a man better than me. I should have had more respect for myself than to settle anyway. :)

No, really, actually, I had never had suits before so I snagged a couple for my birthday. It's not like I wear them everyday. They're for formal functions, interviews, weddings, things like that. I vowed to never wear shit clothes anymore (i.e. beat-to-shit tee shirts I've had for 5 years, pants with stains and holes in them). Got myself some nice button ups, slacks, sweaters, flannel, undershirts, things like that.

Well I'm just saying that a one time visit might be smart. I can understand that you want to make it on your own afterwards.

The story of mine so far as I know is he was a stock broker who speculated too much and then turned to alcoholism which lead to several heart attacks. I don't know for sure, people don't like to talk too much about the past, it's hard to find out more.

Good luck with your stuff though, anon.

>>35339331
You're not answering the question.

Is your dad beating your ass a real possibility - and I mean lasting injuries - is he an alcoholic or something - or is he just an owner of an imposing personality that makes you scared because authority and so on?

Feeling optimistic

Finally starting to escape from ottermode, gaining a small amount of fat so far but I will counter that with some cardio soon enough

Not making it is a lie

>was well on my way to abs at the start of February
>start playing MMOs
>join a HM progression team
>play for hours every night, no gym
>eat and look like shit
>progress down the fucking drain
>back to square one
>uninstall and unsub
>hit the gym again as of last week
>start feeling good again

Kinda mixed feelings. Disappointed that I let myself go when I was close to my goal but glad I can just quit the game at the drop of a hat with no fucks given to better myself.

Tired of going to christmas parties and not being able to touch any of the food.

I feel ya, tough shut to deal with.

As others have said it's still your life, harder with family, but best to not get too entangled with people who will just drag you down

Killing yourself is the easy way out faget.

No matter what hopeless situation you think youre in you are still able to turn it arround homie.

Then sorry to tell you this kid, but don't bother with your dad. Because that guys a cunt and isnt even someone you should want in your life.

Off work for 2 weeks.
Sitting on big comfy couch.
Just got out of shower, post workout.
Watching sports documentaries on netflix.
Eating cucumber sandwiches that my wife made for Christmas.
Bretty comfy SENPAI.
