because they want to?? literally the only reason for doing anything

doing something for the sake of it? hmm... sounds like mumbo jumbo

>>41193862
doing something you want to isnt the same as doing it for the sake of it. the purpose is either your enjoyment of the process, or desire for the end result

Better mental health I've found since starting less of a downer and more energy on a day to day basis

having the commitment to bettering yourself everyday over a long period of time is a skill that most people lack, and a skill that translates to every facet of life.

it's impossible to try to explain this to somebody who has never tried and succeeded at anything in their life

a large majority of anons live in a made up world where there are no gradients, only binary results; therefore positive progression is meaningless to them and they cannot process it because they don't have the patience and/or capacity to appreciate it

>Each year countless young men start down an obsessive, destructive path because they let bodybuilding consume their lives and they lose all perspective of what's truly important. They allow obsession to destroy their relationships, their education, their jobs and their health. Don't let this be you.

wat did he mean by this?

>>41193967
hmm, you seem to have that completely upside down... people who are successful want a tangible reason to proceed with an endeavor

i'm looking for reasons to start working out, but can't find anyway

apparently you don't have any either *shrug*

>>41194039

>*shrug*

Am I on reddit? It's blatant you came here to troll. Just give up.

>>41194039
you literally proved is point you moron. your not a successful person, even if you think you are and you dont understand

the reason for you to start is either because you want the result, or you enjoy the process. the fact your looking for a reason in the first place suggest on some level one of these already applies to you

you know nothing about me or my story, how could you know? the way you've presented yourselves in this thread paints an uglier picture of you than me, brocun... i'm looking for advice but i'm not going to call out bullshit reasoning and shitposts just because i'm novice/uneducated in fitness

meanwhile I make 33k working for the state.

You're not a faggot because daddy left you some money. You're a faggot because of your irritating personality and the way you talk

>>41194231
>equating money inherently to success

unless you have a specific goal for your money, or are one of the types of people who simply enjoy making lots of money (which fits into my two reasons for doing things) then your are just doing it to see the arbitrary number in your bank account grow. so its just for the sake of it, which you earlier condemned

never gonna make it

If you dont want to, then don't, it's not up to anyone to convince you, I lift for glory and because I'm addicted to PR's and want to look jacked as fuck.

sorry if i come off that way to you, i'm not trying to be malicious in anyway but i won't be accused of being a unsuccessful leach, i have some grounds to talk about successful pathways

>>41194290
i love working because money is tangible to me, i understand it's importance and the quality of life it can bring... working out is nothing that is alien to me so i was hoping for some meaningful insight

I just jumped in after reading the thread and you come off as an insufferable cunt. You talk about lack of tangible results being the reason you can't get into being physically fit. Becoming more physically and mentally healthy through the process of lifting is the end result that most people one this board desire. It's one of the few processes in which your work and consistency show directly your end reward.

Get the fuck off this board you socially defunct retard.

>>41194635
this is an emotional post but i'll try to give a meaningful reply; you say becoming fit leads to mental health, there's far more efficient ways to obtain mental health than dedicating yourself to a gym, you are obviously NOT mentally healthy because you're unable to have a productive conversation, does this make sense? oh wait it's just 4chan, heh

>It's one of the few processes in which your work and consistency show directly your end reward.
you cannot be serious

Hes giving advice on mental health because of weight lifting. He literally thinks that being a homosexual having a gay man he's never met before cum in his ass demonstrates the actions of a mentally healthy person

Next time ill be sure to ask the pizza delivery boy to perform my nephews open heart surgery

>>41194727
great post, thanks for that

>>41194699
fuck off back to wherever you came from

>>41193806
It's therapeutic for some. It helps some people stay "balanced." Hard work directly translates into visible results that better your health, physically and mentally. There are several reasons why one would/should lift.

>>41194699
How many things can you endeavor in which you can directly see your efforts rewarded 1 for 1 with minimal outside help? You can name a few for me and I'll wait here patiently. Most people who are financially successful have had the way paved for them. Obtaining a higher education when you have neither the capital or support from your family? Oh obtaining a scholarship? I wonder where the money for that came through? Oh dear me it wasn't from my family? So to receive a masters in engineering I need to have the money myself or rely on the good will of others?

If you have connections or money from your family you can obviously have a much better starting position both socially and financially. We both know that having a degree in which you might even be successful financially in is almost not nearly as important as having connections in which you can receive that position. How do I know? A lot of LWD engineers hire family and friends and which I had turned a position down. You're an insufferable fuck because you immediately go to wealth as your analogue for what drives you and made you successful. You see tangible results and do it because you like to? Isn't that the same reason other people enjoy pushing themselves physically? Then you proceed to look down on people who enjoy bettering themselves. You're an ignorant fuck who already made up their mind and got shut down when you realized people were better than you at the one thing you think is fucking important. Guess what? I make 40k in annuities and don't have to do fuck all for the rest of my life because everything I own is already paid for.

Get the fuck off the board you shit head.
