Good. Keep hitting the gym.
Eat clean whole foods (at a deficit of 500 calories), and sleep at least 7.5 hours a night.
Don't concern yourself with when you'll get your goal body. Enjoy the progress.

You have very good muscle structure. Lean out and you will look great

I need something to do while waiting between sets. I used to just scroll instagram but have quit recently since it clouds your mind and kills your attention span.
Since I wanted to start reading more anyways I thought about bringing a book to the gym to pass the time. Right now I'm reading a Manga but wanted to start with philosophy (Nietzsche and the like) once I finish it.
The question now is whether people will find it weird since they all just phonerot between sets.
Has anyone tried this or seen someone do this? Would you find it weird if you saw someone reading across the room?

>>77278810
It's funny bro because you don't really know how intuitively right you are. Life is meaningless. And that's a good thing. This is the beginning of lack. Because life is meaningless we actually create a retroactive false wound. Once we are immersed into language this wound is the feeling that we are incomplete. language can never fully capture something it can only refer to it, something is always missing. From this lack is birthed desire. A desire that you want RIGHT NOW turns into neurosis ritual and an attempt to guarantee an outcome this is called surplus enjoyment. It's the painful enjoyment that comes from trying to force the gap of meaning to close. For example: if you want to be the next big musician. Healthy desire: working day by day steadily releasing songs making slow progress and enjoying it. Surplus enjoyment: you tweak a song for six months this is the song that makes or breaks your career you ruminate over it and neurotically tweak it and tweak it until it's perfect (it will never be) you are attempting to guarantee an outcome

I take a shit, then take a shower to clean myself. Then I swipe my ass and the paper comes out clean. A few hours later I swipe again and it's dirty. I don't know what's going on. My stool supposedly has the perfect texture (not too hard, not too soft etc) so why is this happening? Is my asshole broken?

Go to a GI doctor and see if you can get referred to a pelvic floor physical therapist. You are not going to want to do this because nobody wants to force a doctor to take care of their anus. You probably have neurological issues with your anus tone. It should loosen when you have a bm then tighten up again when you’re not shitting. The pelvic floor PT can actually fix this but it will be a literal pain in the ass.

>can't sleep without a mask and a machine that keeps you from suffocating in your sleep

why do people want to be big freaks? your body is literally rejecting the muscle you put on. your heart hates it.

Because they are extreme sports?
Do you tell someone who is doing base jumping, free solo climbing, big wave surfing, bull riding etc etc to stop because it is le "dangerous"? No you don't.
So why do you gotta tell bodybuilders, powerlifters and strongmen what the fuck to do with their bodies? Is it because they mog you or something and you gotta cope somehow by saying "they may lift 10 times what I lift but I am le healthy so I win!!"

We all know that the “get taller” trend with random exercises or miracle diets is mostly straight-up BS, so I wanted to make a post about what actually matters regarding growth and overall development. Feel free to contribute any information or experiences.

Main factors related to increasing IGF-1 and growth hormone:

From the nutrition side, getting enough high-quality protein and essential amino acids is important. Fasting methods such as intermittent fasting or occasional 24-hour fasts may also influence growth hormone production.

From the exercise side, intense training like HIIT and heavy lifting can stimulate growth hormone and support overall hormonal health. Improving sleep quality is also one of the most important factors.

That said, these things work better while you’re younger and still developing. If you’re over 22, they probably won’t make a significant difference in height, although they can still improve your physique, health, recovery, and overall performance compared to the average person.

And honestly, regardless of height, self-improvement goes far beyond that. Build your body, your confidence, your skills, and your health. Height is only one trait out of many.

Absolute victim mentality. I know many shorter dudes who can get gfs, compete viciously in rugby, and are strong as fuck. Height is only a problem for insecure fags who make it one.

I'm living that life right now my man. My greatest desire is to have a virgin bride that gives me strong healthy children. And I seemingly can't have that.
I've found peace in not concerning myself with things out of my control, and focus on the things I can reasonably affect.
It is like another anon said. If life isn't worth living, why concern yourself with living at all?

>>77280696
For me both are equally miserable. I have an outdoor hobby I do where at least I get to be active and be somewhat social. But when I don’t have that scheduled, I do nothing. I either sit inside all day doing nothing and I’m miserable there, or I go out bicycling aimlessly around town and see how everyone is enjoying the day, usually a weekend, with their friends, spouse, kids, while I’m the pathetic creepy biking around alone. Everything I do is miserable

>or I go out bicycling aimlessly around town and see how everyone is enjoying the day, usually a weekend, with their friends, spouse, kids, while I’m the pathetic creepy biking around alone.
I mostly just do long walks but I facially still look like a teen and get mistaken as one due to the way I dress so people think I'm just a school kid going somewhere thankfully, still sucks
>>
>>77280752
So what is it you want to resolve then?
If being active is what you want to do, then do it. So you don't have a gf, so what? That's out of your control. But being active is something you have control over.
Not much else to be said. Misery only has as much power as you decide to give it.

Welcome back to /SIG/!
How have you improved yourself this week/month/year? Share your successes, failures, methods, resources, suggestions and everything in between.

Basic recommendations:
>Create more order in your life. Live by a routine and set goals. Use a calendar and stick to it as closely as possible.
>Eliminate any unproductive or time-wasting habits (watching YouTube, browsing /b/, etc.)
>Maintain a clean living space and practice basic hygiene habits.
>Maintain consistent sleep patterns (at least 8 hours).
>Engage in regular exercise, at least 3 days per week. Lifting/sports/cardio are all great.
>Consciously manage your diet.
>Explore new hobbies and interests regularly. Get a hobby that isn't exercise or work. If your hobby is video games, expand on that. Create content (guides, videos, etc.) for your favorite game or contribute your skills to an indie game project.

>Learn to focus + meditate
>Simplify your life. Work, hobby, socialize, eat, exercise, and sleep should be 90% of your day.
