Who here /fit/?

>>35446117
I'm not fit in the sense that I'm ripped and muscular, but I exercise daily. The only difference it makes is that the regulars at the place I exercise at will sometimes fist bump or nod at me. It literally hasn't helped me in any way other than giving me a fun and challenging outlet for exercise

I'm not /fit/ because I have a job.

it gives you one extra point to looks, but honestly it's a waste of time so I stopped 4 years ago

>>35446117
Fixed my shit tier self esteem, helped me manage my asthma and boosted my confidence. I don't really flaunt it, but being able to lift heavy shit at work despite my size has gotten me respect in the past.

>>35446188
I feel you with the "not flaunting it" part. Ive never told anyone i lift and even if asked i tend to lie about it or i just change topic or say something stupid. I just feel like if i tell people i lift that im tryharding and i dont want to come off that way because thats not what im doing. I lift for myself.

I stopped being the chubby manlet I was and became an otrermode manlet instead.

Yeah it made me even more confident than I was before. I basically had an ego boost as well.

Girls actually look at you know. Funnily enough, it happens often with rich daddy girls than the uni girls.

It won't fix your autismo unless you were super self conscious about your body before.

>>35446117
How has it affected your life?
Overall very positively.
Has it changed you in any way besides physically?
I don't find hard work as challenging and its easier to force myself to do things I don't want to do, pretty much increased discipline,
Do you feel more confident?
Generally yes especially with girls but I'm still socially inept.
Do people treat you better?
Yes, compliments and things are nice and people tend to see you as more useful person.

>>35446117
It gives me something to focus on a stops being getting high/drunk.

>>35446117
>THIC asian qt
God listened .

>>35446166
More like you're fit because you can't manage your time to save your life

changed me appearance, but that's literally it. still don't have any connection to any human being and still shy as fuck. 25 kv

>>35446269
When you try to shame people for not following your cult of insecure faggots it only highlights how empty and shallow your life actually is, not to mention going against everything this board stands for.

>>35446117
I worked construction for 6 years and now exercise is a complete fucking chore to me

>>35446117
>If you are not /fit/, why not? It can only help you, there's really no downside to it.
Feels like I'm physically unable to right now.

I lost 60 pounds last year through diet (280 -> 220) and had planned on starting cardio / lifting to try and get down a bit more and tone up a bit, then I got costochondritis and anything remotely active makes it flare up. Feels like someone is driving a knife through your heart and sternum. My doctor hasn't really been able to do anything for me, either.

Apparently it normally only lasts a few weeks, but mine is going on half a year now. Keeping hope that it ends up being more like a year-long thing instead of a rest-of-your-life kind of deal.

>>35446292
You're not *

Not originally

the best thing about it is probably the confidence. you start looking for ways to utilize your body.
i smoked cigs when i lifted and lost weight, so when i would go try to do something physically fun, i'd feel like death because my lungs.

i quit smoking and wanna get back into it, now i'm jjust struggling to regain momentum, because it's a huge momentum thing.

people treating you better, i dunno, this one is mixed. it makes the people around you more insecure.
all i would hear is, "yeah i need to start getting in the gym", that's all i would fucking hear and i wouldn't need to bring up the gym, they would bring it up themselves.
my mom even started exercising. it didn't last long, but it was nice seeing her try.

>>35446117
>If you are not /fit/, why not?
It's too expensive for me. I'd rather take some martial arts classes as bjj, kickboxing or muay thai but there is no such thing in my town.

I spent 2-3 years becoming /fit/ in college. Went from skeleton to decently muscular looking in a shirt. Results :
Confidence UP
Sex HAD
Girlfriend GOT
Self esteem UP
but also
Contentment DOWN (the day you start lifting is the day you realize you're small)
Money DOWN from eating so much
Future happiness DOWN because every day I now remember my good body and compare it sadly to my current body

I stopped lifting when I got a full time career job. If I'm honest, I still have time to do it, but I'm so drained after work that I don't

>>35446414
>It's too expensive for me
How much does a pair of dumbells cost?

>>35446445
I have a pair of 10 lbs dumbells but i can only do that much with them.

>>35446117
I've been lifting fora few months now.

>How has it affected your life?
Positively I guess.

>Has it changed you in any way besides physically?
It's given me some more confidence now that I'm actually seeing noticeable gains.

>Do you feel more confident?
Yes. I feel like my arms will look okay in short sleeves by the summer and I won't be laughed at.

>Do people treat you better?
Not yet. While I am making gains and I can actually go out in short sleeves now, I'm still somewhat DYEL mode.

The main reason I'm doing this is to gain confidence, but it's actually made me physically stronger, which is useful.

>>35446473
I'm sure you can get heavier for fairly cheap? I cant remember how much cost desu but they have weight plates so you can add more as you progress.

>>35446445
Losing weight is cheap, but gaining real muscle isn't. You need at least a barbell or dumbbells up to a high weight, not to mention the large amounts of calories and protein.

>>35446431
this is pretty accurate. lack of contentment also comes from how you've just completely transformed your metabolism and there is no stopping it now.
you will be hungry 24/7.

and notice how he said "drained" and not tired. that's the central nervous system we're referring to.
you'll actually know/remember what it's like to drain your CNS when you exercise rigorously, most people haven't tested their nervous system since they were children.

>>35446508
Those things are actually expensive. I'd rather go to gym than buy weight plates. However, i'm a neet who lives with parents, so i have zero income.

>>35446347
You didn't meant to answer my post , right ?

>>35446431
>the day you start lifting is the day you realise you're small

Ughhh i fucking hate this. Even after gaining literally 20 pounds of muscles and have been told by everyone that i look great, and my mom even telling me that im getting too big, i still feel like a small guy.
Once you start lifting you are forever small and its a stupid stupid feeling.

Im know i look good, but i still manage to look small to me. Its a vicious circle and a hard thing to explain.

>>35446117
I'm pretty obese and don't have the patience or willpower to get /fit/. I'll probably remain a fat KV.

>>35446580
>I'm pretty obese
Height, weight ?
t. another fat kv

stop posting this pig

>>35446117
I train since 3 years. I am by far the most muscular guy if I go out or enter a room. But:
- That changed shit, I still cry everyday and say to myself "everything is alright, nobody will hurt you, everything is alright" to calm down
- Still feel exhausted if I only spent one hour with a different person
- Still have concentration problems that ending in bad grades (I study Information Management, in the first semester (I'm in the second now, I'm 23) I felt through one Exam and have bad grades for the rest and I've learned 2 months 4 hours everyday)
- Still virgin
- Have a Teddy who I cuddle with to sleep good at least

I'm pretty fit but I'm also ugly so it never really improved my life.

>>35446679
>I am by far the most muscular guy if I go out or enter a room
>Still virgin
This should be /fit/ banner
Btw, you are supposed to get in shape, not become autistic about lifting.

>>35446580
>>35446610
Hey faggots, look up progress pictures on reddit. You'll see you can lose tons of fat very quickly.

Building muscle is the hard part, it takes a long time.

>>35446117
I don't even know if I ever will get fit, lad.
For one, I have Klinefelter syndrome which really fucks with my body shape. Narrow shoulders, as wide as my hips. Also I have a pretty ugly looking hanging belly full of fat (which is my fault I know) and don't know if I can ever get rid of it. 25 yo virgin reporting in.

>>35446726
I train only 4 times the week for one hour, I have plenty of stuff outside of weight lifting, I just have mental problems but no one take that stuff serious. I think about killing myself everyday but I'm too scared, I'm even too scared to swim under water.

>>35446911
>I just have mental problems but no one take that stuff serious
Why wont you seek therapy? There might be bigger problems.

>>35446941
I read from subjects where People got more exhausted and ending killing themselves and I'm really easy to scared, I didn't even flight in the US as I always wanted after I finished my school because I was scared about terrorist attacks and that someone could kill me there (besides that no one would spent their holidays with me, maybe my parents but they must work a lot).

I lift weights 3 times per week and play basketball 3 times a week too. I also try to swim 10 laps twice per week.

I'm starting to see some progress, especially in my biceps and triceps, but it's slow. I've only kept this schedule up for about a month and a half so I'm trying to just keep the cycle going and let the gains come as they may.

>>35447011
So you've been scaredy cat since childhood? How was your relationship with father?

I was fit a year ago before I went on holiday, was going to the gym 6 times a week. Feeling great.

After coming back from holiday I started full time work and started living in a new city with my gf and I didn't have enough time.

Started again recent I feel like shit cause my body is all fucking weak again.

>>35447068
He's never talked much and worked maybe 70-80 hours a week. He has his own company so I understand why he had never much time, he must work so we could live a better life than him as he was younger.

>>35447136
Rationally you understand of why your father was distant (company business) but subconsciously you're still hurt because of it. I'm guessing that you two never had a talk about girls, dating and life in general. If parents werent able to dissolve your uneasiness in early childhood, you were thrown into vicious circle where you wanted to elevate uneasiness but couldnt figure it out and therefore you felt even more uneasiness due to not being able to figure it out.

For those of you who managed to become /fit/ (going from a skinny fag)

How much did you change your diet and what was your beginner's workout?

>>35447136

>father has his own company
>never involved you in it

bad father desu

>>35447766
He owns a Driving School, I don't want to work in a Driving School desu. If People yelling at me I start to cry in front of them and begging for forgiveness. That's the whole reason why I train, so People don't get so angry so fast if I made a failure so I don't must cry so often.

>>35446117
I think I am starting to get looks from girls around me.

I have a decent face and a growing heard.

HOWEVER I DONT KNOW HOW TO TALK TO A FEMALE OT WHAT THE FUCK TO TALK ABOUT.

I notice girls in uni checking me out and just waiting for me to initiate but I never do.

FUCK

>>35446117
i just loose the motvation sometimes for weeks, and it puts me back in progress so much i just can't finish it

>tfw you're too stupid to eat healthily so you can't become fit
I'm not overweight but I don't know how to cook and I'm a NEET that has my mom make everything for me when she's home.

When she isn't home I look for something to microwave and if there isn't anyway I just don't eat.

>>35446166
What about doing some exercise instead of shitposting on /r9k/?

My problem is that I have literally no time to cook.

So I thought about doing simple things such as mixing protein powder with 5eggs for breakfast
Then oats+whey and having frozen meals( simple meals like aspergus and chicken breasts).


Should this work?

>>35447976
Has anyone here surpassed this shit ?

I never had a female friend .

I know I am already over qualified for a friend, in every department except the most important one : actually fucking speaking.

>>35448137

Sounds great.

I live in a poor country and U can't afford that much protein.

Eating that with the right program will give results.

Maybe calculate how much protein you need and eat that.

I'm pretty /fit/. I'm a pro mma fighter so I spend most of my waking time training if I'm not getting high/fucking around/taking care of family.

>How has it affected your life?
By giving me opportunities to make shit money getting beat up. Also, because of healthy lungs, I can clear a huge bong rip like nothing without even coughing
>Has it changed you in any way besides physically?
I've always been pretty active and athletic since I was in middle school, so I haven't changed much
>Do you feel more confident?
Yeah. A lot of people wouldn't even fight me out of fear when I was younger
>Do people treat you better?
Lol they treat me the same nobody cares

>>35448163
You shitting me or not?
I need serious advices because even to me it sounds autistic as hell.

>>35446166

>The only fit people are NEETs

hmmm

but yes OP, I still think I'm ugly as shit but girls are checking me out and guys think I can do anything, and can't help it but gay guys are also checking me out.

but then I go home and play vidya and jerk it to porn because I don't know how to actually pick up girls, just get their interest.

>>35446166
im fit because i have a job. maybe youre just a waste of space anon

>>35446414
>want to get into martial arts
>can't do it because I need glasses
Too bad, it' seems like the only fun form of exercise to me
