>>tfw too embarrassed to go to the gym

>>39776365
a lot of us were. what separates the men from the boys is the ability to do something we're afraid of doing.

I was, and then I realized that I didnt give a fuck, social anxiety stopped me from even asking people how many reps they have.

i-i-i-i just havent asked anyone for a spot yet cause i go with my brother...

>tfw going to the gym, but cant get no gains
This feel is way worse

>>39776365
Just go. Nobody will even notice you. I've been going for years and nobody has ever talked to me.

you can do it man. other than those that grew up always athletic and going to the gym with friends, we were all there.

one thing that totally changed my attitude this one time, was struggling to bench 85, feeling embarrassed as shit, and then this freak best next to me putting up 315 for reps came over and starting giving me advice and a spot. i realized most of these guys are total nerds (to be that interested in something you have to be) and really friendly, or at the worst, narcissistic enough that they dont even see you.

when you start getting respect from big dudes that see you transform, is the best feeling. Don't be bitch, fight through the self pity and do it bro

>>39776387
this desu, asking someone for a spot is the next step for me, I've gotten over my fear of asking people how long they have left.

Honestly I would've asked earlier, but I bench sub-1pl8 so it's kinda embarrassing to ask for a spot for such babyweight. I might ask when I pass 1pl8.

What really helped me was going super early in the morning, basically as soon as they opened (assuming your gyms not 24 hours).

I basically only did cardio for like 2 weeks, I only started lifting after a lot of observing of others and watching videos. You don't need to dive right into things, take your time, take it slow. Slow and right is better than fast and oh god I fucked up and then you never go again.

>>39776365
i remeber when i first went to gym i was 110 pounds curling 15pound dumbells in front of like 10 other cunts in the freeweight room but i just didnt give a fuck lol, nobody even noticed me and i barely noticed them, at least i didnt have to wait to use dumbells, well not for at least a couple months haha then i got bigger and started doing big lifts with full plates

I had it too but once you go enough and get some test pumping you get into a trance and don't notice anything

Today i saw a friend out of the corner of my eye try to come up to me to say hi in the mirror and i was so focused on my set he did a half assed h-hey and walked away because he didn't think i saw him

I only see me & the weights now. Tunnelvision. I only hear my headphones.

Start slow. Just go in, even if you end up not working out. Pace yourself, get a feel for your surroundings until you're a little more comfortable.

I'm >>39777570, I used to shit my pants at just the thought of going into the gym but its really not all that. I still go early, but thats more due to convenience now than anxiety.

Another thing you could do is make a point of going in early or late one time (doesn't need to be your regular time) and ask one of the staff to show you the ropes. Reading about it and watching the videos is all well and good, but its great having someone show you how to actually do shit in reality and once you have an idea of what to do, it really helps the nerves. They've seen a thousand like you, they won't judge. They'll probably even relate if they were former fatties or respect you for making the change that others don't.

I thought my ex was my friend after we broke up, I even thought she was interested in hooking up or going out. And then I find out a year later that the entire time she was messaging me for emotional support she was fucking my close friend over the course of a year and a half.

Luckily you can visibly see shes moved on, if this isnt bait then just FUCKING BLOCK THE BITCH

Why are you scared to go to the gym?

Do you not realize that no one gives a shit about ? No one will look at you and think " wow what a skelly" or "lmao that fat guy benching 1 plate".

Just go in an do a routine your comfortable with, then branch out. I was the same way famalam, my friend took me in after hours and showed me a meme-tier machine and bench routine. The next day I walked in and got a membership. YOU CAN DO IT!

>>39778694
I didn't want to go to the gym at first because I was embarrassed due to my shitty, weak lifts, I felt like people were staring at me and judging how weak I was, but eventually I got over it and i'm stronger than most of the people at my gym.

at the end of it all, you realise one thing

people judge you anyway, so who gives a FUCK?

better to learn this earlier than never, some people go through life never understanding this concept truly because they never get past their comfort zone, the gym gives you a chance to break out of that, to truly make gains is to drop your ego completely.

>>39778052
>that feel
The love of my life is currently going to the movies with another man. One time it ate me up so damn bad it literally made bump my max deadlift to 315

I remember the days that I felt anxious before going to the gym. I was the type that couldn't stand my ground during rests and had to walk around aimlessly. It was pretty bad. I was the literal "sips of water between every set" guy.

Over time you won't give a fuck about any else's presence in the gym, other than qt3.14 grills and thicc cocksluts, and you won't give a shit about pride or whatever.

Essentially you need to get to the point that you only want to lift weights and forget about everything else. To do anything else is to rob yourself of gains.

Advice from someone who has bad social anixety
just get some headphones and zone out, mostly people are too worried about what they're doing to care..I was really insecure about going to, you'll get over it.

Noob gains are pretty damn easy to get. Start with the bar and go up 20 pounds every workout. Train every other day and in only two week's time you'll have caught up with the average gym goer.

>>39786633
>20lbs every workout

What do? I know everyone's first goal is 1/2/3/4 but my squat is supposedly way behind my bench.

No matter how much weight you add, you're always squatting the bar. It's never enough.

Idgaf about who is in my gym, skinny or fat I'm just happy to see you here. Want help with something? Ask me! You're obviously doing something wrong? Don't even ask I'll help you without sounding like an asshole. Diet advice? You got it.

Though if you're in the gym obviously not working hard, sitting on your phone all of the time please get out.

I actually miss when thinking about a girl got me so worked up. After things fell apart with my highschool sweetheart, I've felt little more than indifference to girls or my gfs after. I genuinely did love that girl. I'm not stuck on her anymore, but I never felt that way about anyone else yet. Even my gf I'm dating for the last two years is mostly out of convenience and accessibility.
Keep feelin those feels while you can mate.

How do I even start? I'm starting to do sit ups and push ups at home everyday just to prepare myself a bit but I don't know.

>mfw even the girl crushing on me at work teases me about my lack of physical strength
I just wanna fucking die tbqh senpai.

Eat more then hit the gym.

>>39794012
You just go man, it's really just something that people build up in their heads for some unknown reason. Read the sticky, it's a great resource... then go! You can make it, eat a lot, eat lean, lift weights consistently. You will be able to toss around your crush in no time ;)

>Babyfaced, socially anxious lanklet

I'm still hitting the gym 3x a week and getting in the rack. I look pathetic and feel it but I just have to suck it up and get on with it. You soon get used to it and realise no one gives a fuck. Even I've been able to walk up to ripped niggas and ask them how many sets they have left etc. Most people in the gym are polite even if they look intimidating.

Just lift and take personal pride in the fact you are working out despite your insecurities

>>39794021
I eat like a fat girl in denial but my metabolism just burns that shit.

worst part is it does nothing for me, I don't gain any mass or any height, I'm stuck being 5'8 53kg with no physical strength, even a girl could overpower me at this point.

How do I even begin? what do I lift? how long do I lift for a day? Do I just stuff my face with protein and left whatever?

>>39794039
I've read the sticky I just can't work up the courage to go, I'm planning on getting a membership the start of next year and going with a friend first so it isn't too weird.

I hate the gym. Maybe if I had bros to go with I could enjoy it, but the gyms here suck.

Eat more, then. It's really just that simple. Count your calories to make sure you are eating significantly more than you currently are.

>>39794096

Good luck anon. The only thing holding you back from your goals is yourself. Challenge yourself every day. Get to the gym and prove to yourself you can do it.

>a-a-a-am I even considered a boy?
you're considered a beginner

I had to pace around the block 4 times before I went in. The first time I went I couldn't go in at all and just went home.

It takes time for your nervous system to get used to doing the motions in the most efficient manner. When I first started all of my lifts at least doubled within the first month because I got used to doing them. The squat uses a shitload of different muscles so it could take some time for you to actually lift what you're capable of.

>first start lifting
>bench like 95lbs for 5
>shaking like a motherfucker
>brother tries to get me to do a full plate one day
>get it like 3/4 of the way down before having to go back up or it would collapse on me

>start doing 5/3/1 soon after
>math worked out that on my third week I'd have to try benching 135 for at least one rep
>get under the bar
>manage to do 5 perfect form reps

It's not a lot at all but I finally managed to lift 1pl8 for the first time and I felt really good about it

Get a macro counting app on your phone to keep track of how much you're taking in. It's gonna be a lot, and you're probably going to want to kill yourself, but it's what it takes. Your body uses fats, carbs, and proteins all for different things and will substitute one if it lacks another, so you need to be taking in a balanced amount of all three for best results.

For a program, 5/3/1 is really good for very gradual but constant progression. Google it.

Real talk anon, I've been to like 4-5 different gyms over the years. Just go to Anytime or... Planet Fitness (please don't lynch me /fit/). I'm currently going to PF because I'm trying to save money for a new car and I'm cutting. Make no mistake, PF is like the worst place in the world to try and make gains. But all my lifting is maintenance and I'm focused on cardio to get down to 13% bodyfat before summer.

So if you're like I was, a butterball who's ashamed of their body. Just go there, it's cheap and most of the people there are absolutely pathetic anyway.

However, if you want to go to a real gym know this. You will not be looked down upon, the only fatasses we look down upon are those who aren't trying to fix it. I've been there anon, I've felt that shit, I know what it's like. If you're skinnyfat same shit still applies. If you don't start now you will always be embarrassed of that body.

Im sorry anon about your shitty roommate. My roommate is pretty much exact same stats as you and ask him to go to the gym everyday but never does and just sits in the dorm eating sour patches and anime. At least you decided to go see whats up, so go to the gym, lift some heavy ass weights, eat good, and become stronger than your roommate

We all have to start somewhere.

Lift and eat more. Pic related.

Listen, this is very important.
For the next month, I don't want to see you in the gym.
Don't even think about going there before February.

Fuck man, you gotta step it up, I was making no progress when I was working out without a routine but then I followed 5x5 and got up to 2pl squat in two months. You might think, hurr durr my genes suck but you really gotta push yourself and eat well, after every working set you should feel lightheaded and feel like puking, so add some heavy ass weights and lift on!

>>39794066
>I don't gain any mass
Yes you do, you think you eat a lot, but you are not, when I was 150lb 5'10, I ate so fucking much and did 5x5, and in 3 months of doing so I am now 180 and my lifts have gone up dramatically. When you wake up, eat, you feel full? Eat a little more to the point where you feel slightly like puking, and after you don't feel like puking, drink a big glass of whole milk, and just repeat that 3 or 4 times a day and you will gain weight, trust me, your metabolism doesnt mean shit when you eat that much, you will be amazed of how eating can make you so much stronger, it is truly amazing to realize our body is just a machine that requires fuel to become stronger

It literally eats me up inside every day, fuck. I don't know how people struggle to go to the gym when it should be a struggle NOT to go.
