Clearly

Honestly I'd still be a NEET if I didn't. Physical fitness and being an adult go together for me.

What are you, 18?

To gain visible muscles.

>>39118590
>What are you, 18?

Early 20s, close enough. I'm not doing shit if I'm out of shape, hence why I lift.

>>39118513

So I can be ready for when the Metaphysical war comes.

narcissism mostly, but i also have little else going for me and i truly enjoy making gains

>>39118513
I'd love to see the dyel faggot who drew this who is probably projecting because some Chad stole his gf


I lift to overcompensate for my short comings, feel better about myself, look good in clothes/shirtless, pick up chicks, health, idk.

>>39118714
It used to be her, but the at this point I'm wise enough to realize that this is the root at which my tree of gains has stemmed from. I know it's petty to be self conscious /insecure about my body, but if it means that I'll push myself harder to strive for that muscle group or last could pounds of fat, then I'll gladly submit myself.

I just want to be leaner and bigger.

>>39118828
Not really, life isn't particularly fair.

>>39118846
Yeah, its rough but thats what keeps me going ultimately.

I’ve posted this before, but fuck it.

I had a very close childhood friend named Zoey while growing up. We used to live right next to each other and would always hang out. We did everything together, one night we ended up getting curious when our parents weren't around and we started fooling around, as years went on we kept escalating our affection we felt towards each other after what happened that night. I lost my virginity when I was 11, but she technically she lost hers at 14 (Broken hymen).

We used to live right next to each other, but since she moved away freshman year it's been harder to see each other frequently. I usually fly out to see her on special occasions like summer break and other long term holidays. We almost have everything set in place to go to uni.

I guess everyone is trying to get fit in their own way be it mentally or physically. I just do it because of a small comment that really got to me the last time we saw each other "you're getting pretty thin Spencer, hope you don't miss me too much".

>>39118580
>having super vegeta legs in real life

>>39118850
First I've heard about it. But as you were saying you lift to keep moving to keep the bad feefees away? Something about being an adult in his early twenties and moving to work and living to move?

>>39118935
Better than becoming fat.

>>39118927
It's all smoke and mirrors. But so is most of /fit/.

The childhood female friend i had ended up getting hot.
When we were kids playing, we would always kiss and talk about getting married.
Then she got hot, and i got more and more socially ostracized.
She started dating football players, and i stopped talking to her because i was tired of all of her emotional bullshit.
After a few years of lifting as a teen, i became a god. Nobody even came close to me besides a few bros of mine that also started out as social rejects. The football normies would ask us for advise, and we would tell them to eat cabbage, and sell them estrogen pills saying it was test.
I remember walking up behind them and OHPing their squat weight.
In the end, she started showing interest in me again. I debated reciprocating, but i realized it would make me the exact kind of person i hated. I held myself to standards in every aspect of life, and before me was a person that was content just existing.
So when she actually asked me out, i said no, ditched school, got a pizza, and watched LOTR, lifting and running between movies.
Im glad you found love mate. Cherish it. But dont get complacent. Be the best man you can be.

To answer OP.
When i started training, i died. Im not sure exactly when, but at some point between the first sets of starting strength squatting less than a plate, the first run, barely able to do 5k, or picking up the illiad and being unable to even smoothly read without backtracking, i died. The weak person that was content with just existing faded away.
I lift because its all i know. Since my rebirth, life has always been nothing but pushing a boulder upwards. And even if people say its fine where it is and congratulate me, i wont let go to shake their hand.
One must imagine Sisyphus happy

>>39119004

>>39119093
That last sentence was incoherent. Are you saying im an idiot? Why? Dont just attack random people for no reason.
If im writing poetry, i'll make sure to word it well, but i just made that post while taking a shit.
Whats got you so rustled?

>>39119119
It goes without saying. But I thought you were always moving, and now you're suddenly Mr. Sedentary?

>>39119128
Then you should probably flush your crap away rather than post it. Am I being coherent now?

>>39119147
Never claimed I was always moving, that would be ridiculous. Rest is important.

>>39119158

I keep lifting for "her", but the problem is that "her" is always different. I tend to fall in love with pretty much any women that shows me interests. The problem is that I never ask them out because of my insecurities and I'm pretty depressed, so I don't want to drag them down with my depression.

Its probably not even real love. I've never had a gf or too many female friends, so I just get really fucking lonely to the point where my brain thinks it is real love.

fuck me, right?
Oh well. Lifting still helps me for get about how much of a shitty person I am, so thats another reason why I lift.

You've made a huge improvement, lad. However, you need to eat more.

I just don't want to be feeble and useless when I'm old.

Because I was morbidly obese throughout my childhood and adolescence.

I have a picture of myself at my fattest on my mirror. I owe it to myself to never get to that level ever again.
