"Getting fit" in the sense that you stand in one position and exercise the same muscle over is neither healthy nor attractive

If you want to get in shape actually go outside and do various extraneous activities

>>35405534
it takes 2 hours at most (weights + cardio) if you are taking your time, but 1 hour is enough

1 hour out of 24 hours and optimal frequency is 3 days a week. Everybody has time to get fit. I got fit, but it didn't change anything in my life besides making me fit.

>>35405534
because i'm 18 and balding, no matter how fit I am my life is over

I did it makes literally no difference.

this is NOT how you get fit unless you want to become a dyel skinnyfat faggot

I have been trying a sort of minimal effort plan to increase my stamina. According to some paper, just four minutes of cardio at 90% maximal heart rate three times per week is enough to significantly improveme aerobic capacity. Even more efficient than the widely advertised "4x4" high intensity interval workout. I've been doing 4 minutes at 95% hrm every other day on a rowing machine. I've noticed that most of the effort seems to be in getting up to the target heart rate, and it doesn't take much more exertion to keep it there. As for improvement, I can only say that I feel pretty good after doing the exercise, and it seems to require more effort to get to the target heart rate with each session.

I plan on doing couch to 5k eventually, along with Starting Strength. Right now I'm still a skinnyfat weakling, and I don't want to hurt myself. Maybe it's just an excuse to delay, but whatever.

If you get fit you get a bigger dick. Your foreskin will also regenerate faster.

>Implying I isn't

I'm pretty strong but I'm lazy as fuck recently. I hit a 200kg squat a couple years ago, but I've just been doing a lot of work sets at 140-160kg for the past few months.

>doing couch to 5k and SS at the same time
Pick one and stick with it (for now). Starting strength means eating and sleeping like a pig while continuously adding weight each week. You're supposed to get a bit fatter/bigger from it. Running more than a little warmup (5-10 minutes) before/after lifting won't help your gains and will burn more calories that you shouldn't lose.

The standard definition of physical fitness includes strength and flexibility alongside cardio vascular health
If you only do one of the three you are unfit regardless

>>35406224
What's a "maximal heart rate"?

Did got bored lifting heavy things up and down.
I like hiking mountains though, and walking for ever.
People thought I looked crazy when I had muscle I dunno.

>>35408714
>The standard definition of physical fitness
Not really.

If you're able to run 10k, you're fit.

If you're able to lift 200 kilos, you're fit.

Don't need to be able to do both.

Flexibility has nothing to do with either unless it is so debilitating as to affect your posture, which is rare.

>a male hormone that if you dont get enough of will start balding

http://www.healthline.com/health-slideshow/hair-loss-and-testosterone#4
>Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) is made from testosterone by an enzyme called 5-alpha reductase. It can also be made from DHEA, a hormone more common in women. DHT is found in skin, hair follicles, and the prostate. The actions of DHT and the sensitivity of hair follicles to DHT is what causes hair loss.

First sentence.

You underestimate how hard it is to get anything done when you have depression. I used to be fit until a year ago and go to the gym everyday, then all of a sudden I didn't feel like even going outside anymore and went back to fat cunt mode.

If you have some kind of self-esteem problem about your appearance then it can help, but otherwise getting fit is a meme.
What's the point if you're still going to be a dumb autist? Even if you get swole like this people are just gonna think that you're trying to impress someone and yet you don't make any moves towards anyone, making you look somehow even more autistic.

I've tried it for the better part of last year.
What goes wrong?
Depressive episodes kick in and I don't want to do anything
My routine ends up being too much of a hassle and I stop enjoying it
And recently I read that you should save up your energy as you progress insted of exhaust yourself. I think all the times I've stopped, it was because of burnout.

So right now I'm taking it slowly, perhaps too slowly

The point is that you can't and shouldn't overtrain.
Also >>35405621 is right, it's better to go out, at least, much better than lifting dead weights which is unhealthy and injures your joints. Going out, taking the sun, interacting with your enviroment, and actually moving. Even if you don't get buff, it's much better.
But our culture puts an emphasis on ... well, esentially unhealthy stuff just for shows.

>>35405678
That's called being lean. It's how you look when your body trims you down to be as efficient as possible

>>35409021
Are you seriously so stupid that you don't see you are agreeing with me?

>>35405534
No motivation desu. I work or play vidya and shitpost.

But I am thinking about paying for gym, so I go there because I would regret wasted money. Is there wifi in gym? I could work out while watching anime on tablet.

Dude just shave off your hair, its better to have no hair than some balding spots.

Because I live my life making excuses to avoid the effort of even trying.

>>35405534
Because it sucks and I hate it

>>35409166
Yes that is called a conversation.
I was genuinely curious because I was told working out and less stressful things like booze all the time can keep your hair line around.

>>35409245
Wut da fuck?
why and how.

>>35405534
But I am. I go to the gym every day.

just because I strongly dislike sweating, to be desu

I am pretty fit.

I've done lifting, running and now swimming.

Being fit is good in that you enjoy looking at yourself and so do others. I haven't bothered with girls but got lotsa gay attention so I guess it was worth it.

>>35410360
That SHIT ain't NOTHING.

Meh. I used to be fit but got psoriases. Now the more I exercise the worse my body looks. Also doesn't fix autism.

>Now the more I exercise the worse my body looks
How so?

>>35411123
My psoriases seems to be triggered by exercise. The more I exercise the worse it gets. Was really enjoying getting ripped as well.

Too poor to afford eating big and I"'m afraid I'll do it wrong and just get fat.
