To love myself.

"No man has the right to be an amateur in the matter of physical training. It is a shame for a man to grow old without seeing the beauty and strength of which his body is capable."

I got into a bad accident as a kid, and a different accident as a teen, that totally fucked my body up in a way that's not really visible. My spine is completely jacked up, and I went through total muscular atrophy twice. I was extremely weak and frail, but I just looked like a normal teenager, so since then I basically had to tell every person I ever met to be careful with me, because even something like slapping me on the back too hard might put me in the ER. This was/is incredibly emasculating and made me want to stop talking to people altogether, just to avoid it. I've been lifting hard for about two years, and that's just what I have to do to achieve "slightly out of shape normal guy" mode. It's worth it, I'd do anything to avoid having to grovel in front of people that think I'm a pussy.

I like lifting. I hate the feeling of being small, fat, and insignificant. I hate the idea of other people being stronger than me. I hate not always looking the best. When I don't lift, I feel like a disgrace to all the men of my family who came before me.

Because I hate myself and lifting is the only thing that brings me even a semblance of inner peace anymore.

because im not too intelligent not to
