What triggered you to get /fit/?

I was always somewhere in the middle, I had been at a boxing club for a few years but didn't eat healthy and did drugs. I was always a skinny fat.

And then i did LSD and it made me question

"what would my life be like if I had never done drugs? How different would things be? How many times has it held me back?"

Since then I've been drug free and sorted my shit out. Got in shape and reached my goals. It completely changed my relationship with drugs and looking after myself. Has anyone else had a similar epiphany? What was the trigger for you to get /fit/?

I tried out this armored combat league thing with my buddy and got absolutely destroyed. I could barely breathe, the armor weighed a ton, and it took everything I had just to stay on my feet while these other guys beat me into the dirt. I was incredibly embarrassed by how weak I was, so I started lifting and fighting more and have gotten better at it. It feels fucking great to be able to actually move and fight in medieval armor without getting horribly winded after like 10 seconds, and the satisfaction you get from blasting someone onto their back with a shield punch to the helmet is amazing

I was a fat fuck in high school. Then I took a "weightlifting basics" optional course in since we had to take a certain amount of optional courses to pass.
It was the first time I enjoyed any sports and made me feel great.
>>
>>39182922
Been there

Just remember, she doesn't give a fuck about you. You know what I've discovered?

I had a bitch I had feels for for 6 years after we broke up. Every single girl I dated was second to her and I thought no one would ever be as good as her.


Recently she got back in touch with me, and I slept with my oneitis again. And I discovered as a person i don't like her, shes cold and manipulative like all women; maybe even more so. All these things I had forgotten suddenly came back to me and it became obvious I was remembering the good parts and ignoring the parts I didn't want to remember.

I was very skinny between 57 to 60kg on any day.

Got shoved out of the way by some fat guy on the Uni bus, looked like a fucking joke. That was the last straw.
>>
>>39182969
Hope it helps man. I seriously wasted 6 years lamenting her; I'd always refer to her as my benchmark when discussing girls with my friends. Whenever a relationship when to shit I blamed it on it being because they weren't her, and that she was my best match I'd ever find.

Turns out shes legitimately a bad person and I just never saw it, while she was with me she hid a side of her and as "friends" she revealed that side to me. We had sex and it felt wrong and she went a bit weird with me afterwards; I've not bothered messaging her since because I legitimately don't like her. I feel free finally for the first time in years.

Yes, I've been lifting since. I didn't make much progress during the first year since my diet was terrible and my routine was not that great. The course focused on things like how to use proper form etc.
After I fixed my diet and started doing cardio I lost 40 kg (~88 lbs).

When I went shopping at my highest weight, there was almost no store which had clothes my size. I went to like 15 shops without finding anything. And I don't mean something I like, just something where I would fit in.

I went that day home without buying anything and cried myswlf to sleep. The next day I started lifting, changing my eating habits, even visiting a doctor.

It's been 1.5 years and I've lost about 30-40 kg and got a lot of muscle mass. I haven't skipped any workout and have not cheated in my meals.

I went shopping about 3 months later. I grabbed some things I liked and tried them on and they did fit. At that moment I broke down and cried the secod time in years.

Fuck beeing fat, life is great.

I was getting blackout drunk. Embarrassing myself on a pretty regular basis and life was going nowhere. Had one particularly bad night and the next morning I rose out of the ashes of my former life like a Phoenix and things have been steadily improving ever since

alwyas hated how I looked.
One time on vacation my buddy came and visited halfway through and said that I looked fat.
After that, I never looked back. I will always thank him for that.
>>
>>39182245
There wasn't a life changing point for me. Instead, being surrounded by people who were into fitness, I gradually started to admire and adopt their lifestyles. It's still a work in progress, but it's still progress. As a neet who hates adapting to new routines and habits I found this gradual and progressive approach to be better at maintaining a steady rhythm.

Wait till she sees you again.

I left a club with a gf and she said that the club was lame. A big, muscular guy didn't like it and threatened her, said she would have been attacked if she would have kept saying things like that.
I walked by her, and said nothing. It was one of my most embarassing moments of my life. She really wasn't angry that I haven't said anything, but I knew that if something had happened, I wouldn't be able to defend her.
Although I'm still only lifting, things didn't quite work out with that girl, I know I have to get big and learn how to kick ass, because scumbags are everywhere, looking to attack you without a particular reason.
>>
>>39184273
No he isn't

It'll go down one of two ways.

1. She climbs back on his cock, he realizes he doesn't like her anymore and her remembered her to be a better person than she actually is (this happened to me after 6 years)

2. She climbs on his cock, shes the same person but he can't forget how much she hurt him or forgive her. He isn't the same man he was when she left him and he is no longer compatible with her.
We always remember shit better than it was. Twice it's happened to me, they came back around and i realized I didn't like them. One was my ex after 6 years, i fucked her and realized that as a person I don't like her and I was only remembering the good parts rather than face the fact she was a cold bitch who broke my heart and used me.

The other girl was also an ex who after 9 months we met up for coffee, I realized she was a pretty cold manipulative bitch and she was treating her current boyfriend the same way she treated me toward the end of our time together. I cut her out of my life and she hated it.

Guy who has been boxing for 8 years here, I was in a very similar position to you and that's why I started training and then I fell in love with the sport. Lemme pass on some wisdom I've learned over the years.

The worlds full of assholes, if you go around fighting everyone who gets verbally aggressive you'll end up with a long criminal record and a bad reputation; along with generating a shit ton of bad karma in the form of people who might potentially attack you if they see you when you're vulnerable or they're with friends.

I've had a few boxing matches and they've given me confidence, and then a while ago I had to fight in the street to protect myself and that answered all my questions about whether I can protect myself or not. Since then I've always just backed down and played the "I don't want any trouble let's calm down" card.

If you want to learn to protect yourself though, you should do MMA or boxing. Boxing gave me confidence and made me into a man rather than a boy with low self esteem and a victim complex. Starting boxing was the BEST choice I ever made in my life.

When I was close to 400lbs and seen my brother getting /fit/ while I was a miserable fat fuck.
I got on a high protein low carb diet and ate nothing but chicken fits and black beans for a while and started doing an hour of high intensity cardio with only a couple of minutes rest 30 minutes in. Went from 385lbs to 210lbs(6'4" so i dont look fat) in about 10-11 months. Stopped doing cardio and switched to lifting at that point. Have been somewhat inconsistent with lifting but I've managed to keep the weight off and have been making good gains the last 2 months.

Fuck being fat, it is super easy to lose fat, all you gotta do is do what you just did. People who are fat have difficult losing it because they are used to eating the same way that got them there. But you, you said fuck that, and stopped eating and began losing weight. Congrats, and I hope you can keep losing weight and become aesthetic.

I have never wanted to quit doing drugs more so than when I'm under the influence of LSD or shrooms.

It's like I'm in communication with some wiser, older version of myself. Sure I freak the fuck out, but that's cause it forces me to confront my problems, rather then hide from them. Psychedelics definitely had me re-evaluate my train of thought.
>>
I've always hated my self, physically, mentally, socially I never felt good enough. Constantly fought anxiety and depression, video game/internet addict, poor grades, no motivation, few friends, dateless kiss less virgin at age 22.
Then I met the greatest/worst girl ever. She was super into me for some reason and I couldn't see why, but we dated for a while. She was my first everything and she took me higher than I'd ever been in terms of happiness. Turns out she was fucked up by her last bf and just wanted something quick to make her feel better. She left me and I fell hard, crashed and burned.
I started doing even worse in school, quit my job, drank to feel no pain, but for some reason got into lifting. It made me feel better, at least while I was in the gym. It was the only positive thing I've ever stuck to.
I've quit playing games, struggling but fixing my grades this semester, stopped drinking, still lifting, still sad but I believe I'll make it.

Skinny fat for years, slowly developed drinking habit which was steady for a long time, then gradually spun out of control over the course of a year.

Put on weight, clothes didn't fit, broke, and felt shit all the time. Started going to the gym round the corner and doing a lot better now. Started off as a distraction, now I quite enjoy it. I think it will be alright.
>>
>>39184405
Thank you. There are a lot of fighting clubs nearby, and desu I've been thinking about boxing for a long time (lots of people told me I should try boxing, since I have really big palms; don't know if it helps).

I would fight only if someone started fighting, that's for sure. You never know if someone isn't hiding a knife, a gun, or any other weapon, ready to take you down. I am too anxious about my life to lost it in a stupid fight. However, I want to be able to defend myself, if I come across a guy who is looking for a trouble, and there is no way out for me. That's another thing why boxing seems tempting - being able to KO hit an asshole is just too good.

I was on /b/ At the time, and someone posted a /r/unicornblood nude. I was blown away, this girl's body was the most incredibly thing i'd ever seen.

I was sitting there, I was in school after the military, just sorta going through the motions. I wasn't in shape, but wasn't fat, but a typical hint of muscle that most military-but-never-see-combat guys have.
I thought to myself "there's no way I could ever get a girl like that as I am right now." And it kinda just changed me, instantly.

The next day I started a serious lifting, and I hit the books super hard. I crushed my classes, graduated from the best university/best programs in the state/country, got an amazing job/career, hookup with super hot girls all the time, and now I'm, desu, pretty jacked.

It gives me a lot of confidence in my life now, to know that if I met that girl/similar girl on her level, that I'm legitimately on her level.

Tldr: I lift for girls, and I love it.

Came here for the quality memes. Started lifting a few months later partly because i felt guilty consuming the memes without being a part of the community, and partly because I wanted to understand some of the more in depth memes.

I was a fat fuck, 173 cm and 88 kg
I decided that I didn't want to see that fat fuck in front of my mirror ever again
I really never care if girls would like me when I get to my goal, which was losing at least 10 kg, but then, on my way to it, I got something, I didn't know what it was since I never have had doing excersice in my life, so I started to search on Google, and I got to the conclusion that the shit I got from the Gym was called gains.
Now in school i've seen girls mirin me, a lot, but god damn since I was a fat fuck my entire life (from 5 or 6 to 19 or 20) I have so fucking low self steem, when girls are mirin I immediatly think they're laughing or something.
I have had gfs but all of them have been ugly, I know I can do better, but pretty girls intimidate me, I mean, fuck my low self steem, when I see a pretty girl mirin I immediatly think "naa, she's probably watching the guy behind/infront of me, because why the fuck would she be watching me".
I don't know what to do

I got /fit/ before this happened, I said to myself /fit/ is not everything and I should be more happy and social so I started drinking during weekends and training during the weekdays.

I hit rock bottom when I realized I'm wasting money, I'm not having fun. I'm scared I'll become a loner again, but at least I'll be fit and heading in a right derection.

Not going to quit drinking forever, but not drink every weekend is good. 1-2 every month is fine. I just hate what I became.

nice trips

what kind of bad things did she hide from you?

i am dealing with something kind of similar... fell in love with a girl, who then later revealed she was suppressing a bunch of dark shit from her - it didn't bother me, but once she let it come back to the surface she couldn't deal with being around me at all, couldn't feel comfortable with intimacy or worthy of affection, and pushed me away. sad and painful for both sides tbqh.

I was raised on junk food and zero exercise. It worked well enough through high school, as I stayed crazy skinny and older guys were into the tiny twink look. After that though my metabolism slowed down or something and I got fat in my early 20s.

Studied nutrition and diet a ton and got back to skinny twink status but wanted more. Now I'm trying to actually exercise and lift to get a little more curvy and fem :)

Got cut from JV baseball sophomore year of high school. I had been insecure about my body for a long time but that triggered me to stop eating. Then I found /fit/ after like a month of eating nothing/losing 20 or so pounds. Started lifting/eating right shortly after.

Revengeance.

I got mad, so angry at my self that I just had to lose weight. I read /fit/ for a week or so and I was so mad I was tricked by all the be yourself, love your body people and that I was actually disgusting.

started in the beginning of September 6'4 265lbs, now i'm 245lbs and doing calisthenics every day while cutting. I'm not gonna quit the diet this time because i'm still furious.
