I had two girlfriends at the time and I was asking for more, hitting on girls on the street or social media without any success.

So I decided to get buff, but halfway through I realized girls were just an hole for me to stick to have a temporary pleasure. Because when a girl stares at me on the street, I forget about her in 5 minutes. But when it is a man, I become the happiest motherfucker alive on the earth.

Do you know why this is? Because attracting a girl doesn't mean sex and breeding forever, but intimidating a man means domination in the domain and also sex and breeding forever.

Started for me.
Kept at it for a girl.

She don't even care.

But my brain tells me if I keep going she'll be mine.

>Oh anon, you're so functional.

At this point I don't know why I keep lifting.

I think I'm afraid to stop.

I don't make time for it out of dedication, I do it out of fear.

If I stop
>I'll never look how I want
>I'll alwayd be weak
>I'll never have a commanding presence
>I'll never get 'mires

I guess I lift for myself, FOR the reception if me by others.

Holy fuck...I lift for everyone BUT myself.

At first it was for the army

Now I am a student and still lift, hell even more than I did in the past.

I like the strenght, the masculine part, the asthetic part, the health benefits, the dominance and extra confidence.

My GF sended me a photo of a guy who was the boyfriend of one of her classmates..

He was kinda ripped, not big by /fit/ standars. He had a naked chest and made a selfie using his camera.

And I was jealous

He could make a picture of himslef without clothing ( his chest ) and look good.

I look good as well in clothes, but I am not beach ready. I hope to be this year.

SO, that is my motivation.

To know that if I take of my shirt, people will admire me.

To feel something primal. Without some serious physical activity, I feel a bit less human.

Also, I lift for my the mires and girls as well. Just had a foursome with my gf and 2 other girls a couple of weekends ago mostly because I'm pretty /fit/.

because I realised I felt weak. physically weak. And this kind of shit gets you.

Before i knew this feeling of weakness had pretty much dominated my life

I felt afraid to try shit
Felt afraid to have a discussion and stand up for what I thought was right
Felt afraid to approach people

So fuck you weakness. I'm getting strong. Won't be a bitch anymore.

If life comes by and fuck my shit up someday I know now that I'll stand the fuck up for it. The old me would piss himself at this kind of thought. Today it feels more like a challenge.
>>
Because I want my little cousin to look at me and think I'm a superhero.

Because doctors told me I should've died before reaching kindergarten.

Because I owe my mind a better vessel than the one I'm currently in.

Because I want people to think I could protect them when it comes down to it.

Because it improves my understanding of the capabilities of the body, which will help me in my desired line of work.

I'm sure there's more, but that's a good enough list for now.

i dont even lift, anymore

i am pretty much 6'2 295lb have no idea how i actually look until i saw a picture drink as fuck with some ladies, i pretty much gained 40lbs this year, and its due to stress

Initially started going to the gym because I wanted to stay active after quitting soccer.

Lost that urge to be active and instead began going to the gym to get as strong as possible as quickly as I can. That shift happened half a year ago. Getting out of soccerfag dyel is a pain in the ass.

Lifts are
OHP 135 1ROM
Bench 200 1ROM
DL 255 4ROM

Literally never squatted in my whole life. Going to implement it as soon as my hamstrings stop getting sore from deadlifting.

Here is my honest reason that i have never told anybody, nor do I plan on yet. I want a girl. But I know I could get one without lifting. I want my girl to be happy. And i am one ugly bastard, so i think she deserves better. And so i lift weights so that one day when i meet her she gets something that she deserves (my swoleness). Bretty gay, i know

Gotta have like 3+ goals to drive you so you don't into depression breh. I'd be depressed too if I only had the gym to look forward to.

Find something else to drive you. If you can't then make going to the gym a serious thing. Go into powerlifting, professional bodybuilding, or become a strongman. The mind can't be handle a dull life and depression is a result of that.

I want to scare people and be healthy and strong.
Want to be confident that I can take anyone on.
Want to be able to not stress when im bullying people


In all I just want to be better at bullying so my defenses can stay up.

Going to check out a BJJ gym today too.
>>
Helps to calm down and reduces mine stress level
Another is that I want to be in shape in case if some of ppl close to me needs help
>>
>>38440406
Because a pump makes me feel like a fucking king with confidence higher then the roof.
To bad it only lasts around 4/5 hours
After that I'm back to my social anxiety
>>
>so i can be better at physical labor such as yard work and helping people move
>to be more attractive to the opposite sex
>>
Because, as a man, I want to test my potential and see how far I can go in terms of strength and aesthetics both.

I also have almost no other redeemable qualities.

Im a narcissist, i just like looking good, nothing special about that, plus there were 2 periods of my life where i was fat or chubby, living with my grandparents over fed me and living with my ex she got paranoid i was cheating on her because i wanted to get back to working out.

Pic. Semi Related someone a friend of a friend of hers linked her to some feminist bullshit tumblr about paranoid bitches and unfaithful men.

Dropped that bitch like a bad habit

Because I've been a weakling my whole life. Because I want to know how it feels being strong. Because I want to know how it feels being swole and having mad aesthetics. Because I study biology and I know the health benefits of keeping your body at a prime shape.

Was 300 lbs, depressed, suicidal, lost, and all around a mess. Spent 2 years doing cardio to lose enough weight to lift (went down to 180), and now have lifted 2 years and am at 170 lbs around 10% bf.

Exercising has built up my confidence, cured my depression, helped me find God, and become happier than I've ever been. Post got a bit sappy, but I want it to inspire any fatties out there that may read it. Hard part is starting, get out and there and change your lives, my friends

The question is more like : If i dont lift do i implode mentally ?
Then the answer is YES.

I have anxiety and mental disorders due to stress. To keep my mental shit in check i have to lift and run
Otherwise ill just go full retard mode and implode...
This is kinda fucked up desu but i deal with it. And seeing those good gains make me feel good when >tfw no gf hits me.

I lift for Myself
>>
To mate with the best girls and make the best babies
>>
>>38442542
You had a foursome because you have a gf that's willing to get into foursomes.
Try and get even a threesome when you're alone

somewhat this, obviously have to lift heavy or go hard to make the mental restlessness go away though.

Two times disabled people needed my help and I couldn't lift them up. I want to be able to help the third one.
>>
>>38440406
Honestly I just needed an escape from depression at first. Then it moved into I notice my clothes fit better, and I all around took a better interest in my own appearance. Then I moved into the caring about the numbers. But now I am kinda back at the vanity side of trying to look good naked.

All in all if it wasn't fun on its own I would have quit desu.

I want to be able to do the things I want to do.

Getting strength gains has become an addiction. I logged my lifts on Symmetic Strength & got Novice level. There's like 10 more levels after.

I need to get to the next level.
>>
Because I'm a lonely depressed little sperg who desperately wants people to like him after being bullied and excluded for years on end by his peers.
>>
>>38440406
is "gaining power in all its ways and forms" a good reason?
>>
because there is an empty void inside of me which should be filled with emotions, and thus i fill it with gains and endorphins. also bitches digg testosterone and i like it when i get liked.
>>
>>38440406
At this point it's the only thing I have to live for. Would kill myself but I have to lift tomorrow. I don't know why I do it, I don't use strength for anything outside the gym and I don't use the aesthetics for girls.
>>
>>38450654
And once you're 'alpha' and have gains your going to somehow turn straight?
>>
>>38440406
So I can look as alpha as I feel
>>
>>38455154
Knowing that there is one more bro out there gives ME reason to live.
You are now lifting to keep me alive, thanks bro
>>
>>38442099
lmao you guys are losers. Keep living in fear and not enjoy your life.
I used to think that way too and it got me no where and just made me miserable. Lift for love. Not love for others but love for life!

hate grabbing my flab and jiggly my stomach. I'm at 25% bodyfat now.

Because I, among a few others, are the last of a dying breed of high testosterone men surrounded in a world of numale cuckholds that are fragile and weak.
>>
Plan on joining the armed forces and as I used to look like a skelly, I kinda had to start hitting the gym to just pass selection, let alone cope with the training itself.

Also makes you feel alpha as shit when you get to put all the dyels down at parties when they try to show off

I want to dunk a basketball on a 10' net (5'7" manlet)

The gym is near my workplace and I have nothing to do on my hour lunch break
>>
Girl broke my heart. Starting the journey of lifting away my feels. Make crazy gains and everyone notices. Now I just lift for me because I like feeling healthy and confident

Because I want to be a State Trooper, and I don't want some meth'd up asshole to choke me out and kill me in some back country road in the middle of nowhere, ga

For the wrong reasons.
>Be me third year of college
>skinny fat scene gril, but I'm 26% bf with muscular arms so I'm okay with this
>scene gril is crazy, time for a new gril
>qtpi Korean girl in my major, smart, independent, caring. Always miring my arms and my yoyo body fat.
>friends, avoiding spaghetti until single
>spaghetti hard, but Korean June bug gives a second chance
>spaghetti harder, but Korean June bug gives third chance
>unleash Spaghetti from fourth dimension, the alpha pasta. No more chances.
I haven't spoken to her a year, and I'm pretty sure I blew it hard. But Korean girl kept miring my arms, so I'm cutting and bulking to win her back. Or to at least throw it in her face.

Pic semi-related. Looks like her, but never in revealing clothes.

I lift because I want to look in the mirror and like what I see
I also want to be in good enough shape to where I can do the things I enjoy like rock climbing, hiking, and volleyball

honestly I don't even know I just like looking good and the feeling of working out I guess

I have pretty bad body issues from being obese my whole life. I'd like to know what its like to be healthy, not worry about looking fat, and being attractive to women. I also want to lose 50lbs so I can join the navy next year.

Why do so many people here lift for autistic fedora reasons?

I LE LIFT TO DESTROY MY ENEMIES INTIMIDATE MEN AND WOMEN AND BE LE BEST I LE CAN BE TIPS FEDORA
