>"i'm going to start lifting so i can get girls

Should I still start lifting if I genuinely just want to get stronger?

Women don't care about muscles, they care about money

Hoard money and outwardly show a rich lifestyle (even if you ain't) and they will flock like flies on shit

>>34686354
Go for it, you can gain incomparably more than you can lose by lifting

I actually want to start lifting for myself so I can stand my own in a potential fight and feel better about myself, but I'm too lazy to start

>>34686448
Lifting gets alot easier after you break the ice anon, you'll do yourself a great favor by going to the gym

You mean I can't just do it at home? Fuck that.

>>34686549
I assumed you were too lazy to haul your ass from the basement my man

>>34686513
Thanks, I'm gonna see if any of my job applications get accepted and if I have to move. I'd definetly start then, I just don't want to drive to the next big city for about an hour just to lift.

>>34686604
Goodluck anon. Let me give you two tips that i wish i knew when I began lifting: Nobody at the will give a single fuck about you unless you do some dumb shit. Also write everything down to keep track of your progress

>>34686322

Now imagine if these guys were flabby instead of ripped.

They would go from a solid 6 to a 4.


This is the only saying I try to follow in my life.

>Sour grapes is better than nothing to eat at all.
lmao that makes so fucking little sense god i laughed so hard

>>34686903
Are you retarded? It actually makes sense. If you had to choose would you rather be a 4 or a 6?

>>34686322
does it matter though in the end. its not like you lose anything by going to the gym for 45 minutes a day 4-5 days a week

>>34686903

Maybe it doesnt make sense if your brain is full of sperm.

>should I get stronger if I want to get stronger

Are you retarded?

>>34688032
Well I'm more confused as to whether it's (that is, lifting barbells) the most effective strength exercise or if it's more geared toward vanity. A lot of these /fit/ types don't seem particularly strong in practice.

>>34688120
I ran track, lift weights now, go camping, ect

Yes, lifting weights will make you stronger, like any resistance training. It is just that that is all it does pretty much. Don't expect cardio gains. You would have to do cardio for that. Honestly there are so many physiological benefits and feeling strong is amazing

t. some faggot who picks things up and puts them back down repeatedly

>>34688120
It depends on what you end up doing with it. Certain acrobatics and body-weight exercises would be very difficult for them to do. On the other hand, someone who trains for those movements would very likely get out-lifted by the weightlifters in traditional bodybuilding lifts. In the end, you don't really need much strength in your day to day life, so unless you're looking to compete in a particular area, you'll be fine with most any exercise that involves resistance.

what about body weight training? Push ups, sit ups, etc... I'm not looking to get big or even very strong.

>>34688173

Do both .

I used to be a cardiobunny but I couldnt run long distances without stopping once in a while because my whole body from the waist up would start falling apart. Strength training fixed that .

Buy a pull up bar you can attach to a door frame and a dipping bar.

Nah. I mean I can imagine it to go like this for many guys, but my story goes like this:
>start lifting in 2012
>look fit by 2014
>have steady stream of pussy, few fuck buddies atm.
>honestly lift now because I don't want to spend a lot of time in doctors waiting rooms when I'm 50
so there you go

PS if you have a nice face and are not afraid of making movies on girls, you'll eventually get laid. being fit is a meme, it only gives confidence and yes, some girls fetishize it. it's just a bonus, like height. Whereas confidence and a face you can show around isn't just a bonus

Face is everything for men

>>34686861
tbf they just created a contrast between their face and their bodies
not the ugliness is more noticeable

the truth is the majority of women don't want a lifter's body, they want a swimmers body, lean, toned, but not overbearing and veiny, also don't be unattractive like the guys in OP

Sure you do

>>34686322
>man progresses beyond worshipping women but continues to sculpt and strengthen his body and mind through the noble pursuit of strength training

What's the problem here?

>>34690337
So push up pull ups jumping jacks planks and dips?
Thats what I did in jail.

>>34686549
You can but you need space for a power rack, a free-standing bench, a barbell and plates.

The kid with glasses has a qt gf.

>>34686549
If you're being serious look into bodyweight fitness. With just a $20 door frame pullup bar and a good routine you can make progress. Look up the r/BodyweightFitness Recommended Routine.

/fit/ doxxed the guy who was second from the left on the top, and he actually has a pretty cute girlfriend.

They went full sperg rage.

The first set is always the hardest, then it feels great. After 5 days of lifting, you take a rest day, and the morning after you see and feel the gains.
>>34686549
You can do it from home, the gym is an expensive meme. Buy some dumbbells and and use your body weight for the rest. Don't use 5-10 pound dumbbells either, they're good for nothing but cardio
>>34688173
This

Push-ups are more important but sit-ups are necessary if you want to build out of that recession between your groin and abdomen

Swimmer's body is still veiny, just not roided out veiny.

There is joy in lifting and being strong my friend. You should try it,

Its still better to lift than to become a fat fuck, it gives more confidence and helps with stress

Some of these guys have 10/10 physiques

Girls just come in your life when you start getting brolic

>>34690214

Not true. Sure every women would love a 10/10 face, but women usually compromise other traits on men. It's a trade off for women. He might not have the best looking face, but if he's over 6 foot, muscular, and doing well in life compared to a 5'9", 10/10 face, whose not doing the best financially, the first guy would win most of the time.

Men usually put more empashis on face attraction towards women becuase men love pretty face with a good body.

Height, face, bone structure, and penis size are all that matter when it comes to sexual attraction for women.
If you weren't blessed with good genes and upbringing, then there's nothing that can be done about it.
