>My question is what motivates you guys to lift after a long day.
Lifting is my way to clear my mind and have some time on my own after a long day. I finishing my day by lifting, eating some eggs/drinking a shake, showering then going to bed.

Because at times its all i have.

Just DO IT man.. early own, you can make ez gains and that will just fuel your motivation.
Then again you need discipline, lots of it. You really have to be committed.
Think of it as an investment.. why would you not get /fit/? It barely costs you anything but 2-4h per week and the benefits are for life.

Moreover, it will make you feel better mentally and it will boost your test levels. It makes you more energetic as well.
I always feel like a deadbeat in the morning of after long hours of work, but when I hit my first set it all just dissapears.
It's really good "meditation" as well

This.
Lifting in the evening motivates me to get through the day

And right after, doesn't your body boost estrogen to compensate or some shit? I saw it on Fight Club

Two of my daily reasons are:
It kills stress of the day
My muscles feel good after getting pumped.
In the long run, I love being stronger and have long term fitness goals, like being able to do a pullup or do a lot of pushups consecutively. stuff like that.

What stresses you?
>>41383244
Just normal work stress, thinking about bills, sitting in traffic. Nothing overly dramatic thankfully. Working out helps me focus and pushes that stuff out of my mind until the next day.

What doesn't stress you?

Keep going man youll get there. Do you like being this tall. Personally I think it has its disadvantages. I always feel awkward and that Im in the way
>>41383274
Well, when you put it like that...
>>41383275
I have a coupe and my head almost touches the top
Finding good fitting suits is next to impossible
You tend to intimidate people when they first meet you
You have to lift for a long time to look like you actually lift
With that said, the pros vastly outweigh the cons
