/fit/ is dying. its summer, and the zoomers don't bother posting shitposting on /fit/ :(

where are the oldfags of /fit/ (from 2010s) shit posting? on discord? they left /fit/ and moved on with life?

here's my routine, 3 days weekly, ultra minimalist...

A) Bench, rows + arms
B) Squat, pull ups + arms
C) Deadlifts, OHP + arms

I guess you can call it a torso + limbs routine.

Quite the opposite ky friend

Nothing but high hopes on the horizon. Yeah we still deal with Kam but his fatass is mostly harmless and delegated to shitting up cbt, the namefags are gone, the lookism tourists leave around summers end; the namefags fucked off
The future of fit is BRIGHT!

It’s funny because this is my first time here in quite some time. Haven’t seriously lurked since late 2019 early 2020. I sort of see what you mean OP, /fit/ feels a little different. Definitely doesn’t feel as active or fresh as before though I suppose that comes with change and being older. I won’t go as far as saying it’s dead or dying, different for sure.

>>74752113
That seems to be the trend unfortunately

os (+ arms) a joke that all those exercises work your arms indirectly? I never do arms because they're small muscles compared to back/chest and just build naturally working those

desu, misc and /fit/ was 99% white. once browns and changs came online, whites kinda moved on ... 2008 iphone got introduced, then blacks, changs, browns came online ...
>>
I remember "joining" /fit/ in 2011 and being instantly obsessed. I was an edgy 17 year old kid so this place was perfect for me. And surprisingly, unlike the rest of 4chan, there was very little misinformation/schizo nonsense here. Might sound funny but I really enjoyed my late teens and early adulthood nolifing /fit/. Sure, the style of talking was edgy/autistic/toxic, but the SUBSTANCE of what was being said was amazing (legit lifting advice, squat form, deadlift progression, programing routines, etc.). This was a time when forums were still a thing, reddit wasn't the main place for discussing various topics and forming communities over them. I probably stopped visiting around the mid 2010s (2015?) mostly because the internet started changing (forums dying), life got in the way, I was barely working out, studying a lot, traveling a lot.

And now? I turned 30 a few weeks ago, I live a simple life but I wouldn't say I'm happy. There's not much to look forward in the future. Every day is the same, and for some reason I'm feeling less connected to the people who are close to me.

>>74753267
thats the thing people tend to forget, and the thing people who werent around then will never understand. the energy these OG communities put out there was just something else. they were actual communities with actual comradery, if someone was a douche or a retard they actually got ostracized to the point that they fucking realized they werent welcome and left. unlike the dogshit you get now with people posting shit threads on here day and night, the reddit circle jerking and virtue signalling faggotry, the social media clout PC horseshit in general
>>
I only come here to shitpost between sets. There's like 1-2 threads that are funny each week so it's still better than 99% of the internet.
>>
>>74753333
To be fair I clearly recall meeting up with people I "met" on local forums, you could do it and not get hyperswatted and/or having some retard troon send your whole post history to your workplace. Can't trust anyone these days unfortunately.

i almost did, i had a dude literally offer to come help me renovate a new house i moved into for free. i could absolutely see going to a steakhouse or something and just chillin with some bros from back then, it was a totally different time. the fucked up part is it wasnt even that long ago it seems like shit has gone downhill so god damned fast
>>
>>74753228
We've not seen the full scale of this turd worlder internet infestation yet since everyday there are hundreds of jeets, changs and the co getting online for the first time, that's a fact. I really don't want to be a doomer faggot but it's only going to get worse. We all can witness this development in real time and it's not pretty. Old majority white internet is dead and the online white flight to some strongly gatekept communities is on-going. Everything they touch turns to flaming garbage and strict online segregation was always the only way.

Deep down I think forums are gonna come back big time. I know it's a cope but people will soon realize is the best way to create a real community with no bigger platform interfering (unless you host weird stuff like Kiwifarms or go full politisperg). Also, I like how the Internet brought people from different cultures together but this latest wave of third worlders is too much, forums will be our only way out.
>>
>>74753391
>Old majority white internet is dead and the online white flight to some strongly gatekept communities is on-going.

Take for example, language learning app. Nowadays language learning app and dating apps is full of Chinese / Nigerian scammers doing pig butchering scams. White man built technology, browns, blacks and Changs use it for crime.

I'm glad /fit/ is dying. This board sucks I'm just a hopeless addict and can't quit. Rate my routine:

A) 6-count burpees, 20 minutes AMRAP

C) Squat, OHP, Chinups, Delt lateral raises

AB Rest AC Rest Rest

I just like burpees. Considering adding some kettlebell swings instead of squats on day C. What do you think?

Yeah it was a very cool time. The way people talked was more unhinged, since we called eachother faggots, retards, nibbers, but the underlying substance and closeness was there behind it all. I honestly believe the internet and its forum communities were A LOT safer. How often would you hear about weird grooming stories? Seems like nowadays that's 99% of discord communities. Back in the 00s and early 10s, when I was a teenager, people of all ages went to forums. But there wasn't any weird shit going on in those communities (Ok, there probably was, but it didn't happen as often). And those were gaming communities, deviantart, fan-art, indie game fans...Basically breeding grounds for groomers/stalkers now.
>>
>>74756831
It should really be one or the other; wait 60 seconds or fill out a captcha. Not to mention, these captchas are fucking retarded and just waste time. Go back to clicking on images with fire hydrants.
>>
>>74757285
ya i agree. i met up with at least a dozen anons in real life and worked out with them and had a genuinely good time. would get recognized by anons in the gym and just banter then move on. never felt any sense of danger from them, just a bro/sisterhood. people were much more postive in general, making it wasn't a pipe dream. couple of cute girls i banged from .fit as well, just from meetups to help with form and stuff. those days are over. stopped posting around 2020, when anons were becoming crazy af. trying to find my apartment, dox me, death threats, etc. too crazy for me. the best time on this forum was when you could make a friend, trust them enough to exchange addresses discreetly, and send them a package, something cool, like a pair of rugby shorts and see them post in a cbt wearing the same shorts you sent them.
>>
>>74752063
I remember the days of Scooby, OP. Still love that old guy. The memes and atmosphere back then was incredible. It was exciting and fun with a lot of creativity and less of the mechanistic mindless troll wars and outside agendas you get now.

Getting old enough now that I have to be careful how I work out as it starts becoming about maintaining and watching joints and avoiding injury, which thankfully Scoob has always been into too.

>>74752113
It was doomed when all the tourists flooded in from reddit, tumbler, other social media, etc. When it was a weird little insular autistic clubhouse it was perfect. Nowadays you've got corporations and governments that literally monitor and post on the site 24 hours a day all year round for their own agendas, which would have sounded insane for a weird hobby and anime board about twenty years ago.

It's constantly used as some kind of demented "battleground" by various sides and honestly the best thing that could happen is if the site died (but it will be kept alive as a containment site and is easier to monitor just the one place) so that many more boards would be opened up and each would have their own character and fresh energy like back in the good old days once again. Even years ago various groups openly talked about bot and now AI posting non stop for their own purposes. Outsiders, people whoi have no connection to the old culture and creepy old people included. And people wonder why the place went to shit?
>>
>>74753381
>>74753369
>>74757285
The problem is more and more normies infected the internet and even this place. The farther back you go with the internet, the more open and free you could be. Early on you could post your home address, phone numbers, email, work life, etc. and have zero problems. As the bar for entry got lower and every mouth breathing loon could get on with their phone it finally ruined everything and it became an endless war of retards who shouldn't even be allowed online at all.

I played this MMORPG years ago that was basically divided into two guilds but more to the point, it was discord guild versus non-discord guild. The non-discord guild was nerds that were really good at the game and kicked the shit out the discord guild. The discord guild was no joke made up of fags & trannies that wanted to play female characters and pretend to be girls in real life to players who didn't know any better. They also wanted to "beat" the non-discord guild but were no where near good enough at the game to do that so instead they would talk shit 24/7 until some Friday night a non-discord guild member would be playing drunk and finally say "fuck off faggot" and get permanently banned from the game for hate speech. They basically did that until they got several of the core members banned and the rest said fuck this game.

So modern day internet in a nutshell. I'm sure those same nerds are still hanging out somewhere, playing some game together but they sure as shit aint telling and I can't blame them.

4chan can partially be divided in pre-2016 v post-2016. It's changed since 2016, but that watershed moment truly changed the demographics of the site.

At a certain point we have to abandon every board but /fit/ and gatekeep super hard. Must keep out and destroy all LGBT, Egalitarians, etc.

The majority of old RWers have either graduated to real life or have found themselves on anonymous Twitter

>Must keep out and destroy all LGBT, Egalitarians, etc.

I think we must gatekeep both extreme sides - the /pol/ schizos who blame the jews for their failures, and the leftard retards who blame white people and rich people for their insane mental states. We must make /fit/ great again, where people talk about fitness, athleticism, and diet.

Some of us are still here.

I've been here since late 2006. Used to lurk /b/, /x/, /v/, then /fit/ since 2012 and /vr/ since that opened. I left /fit/ for a few years because of the 2016 election tourists and Nazi larpers. Now it's self-proclaimed adult Catholic converts. I'm 35 now and live a pretty normalfag life.

I'm always curious about these routines. How long do you spend at the gym? Do you superset the isolation exercises? In almost two decades of lifting, does this routine feel the most optimal for you at your current level of activity?

I tend to lift 5 days a week and a mix of two to three compounds will take me 45 minutes. 15-30 minutes of cardio puts me over an hour in the gym, which I enjoy, but these long routines always look like they're stretching over the two hour mark to me which feels like a lot.

Pol schizos are right in their Jewish diagnosis, but are usually wrong about how to go about fixing their lives. Fit is currently more in danger of Homosexuals, general Lewdery, and attention whores than they are from any RWers. Getting rid of softcore on this board would be beneficial. Ostracizing, shaming, and ignoring degenerates would help. Doesn't change the fact that degenerates shill and raid for their own perverse pleasure and multiple intelligence agencies literally try to steer every board in numerous directions at once.

The best thing for actual /fit/ minded people to do is to find OR create a forum that does not allow any lewd or softcore content that explicitly shames and bans those that would co-opt the site.
>>
>>74765106
In all of my years of lifting off and on, this has been working for me the best. I rush so I take between 30 seconds to a minute per set.on a good day, where the gym equipment is available , and I shower, I spend around 75 minutes. Today, I got to the gym at 1pm and got out at 2:30 and I didn't even do cardio.

Get those compounds in.

waaaat. What did you do then?

Mainly compound exercises. I was a barbell purist. I focused mostly on squatting and deadlifting heavy.

Yes. The majority of old /fit/ style content (though with new idols) is on TikTok and Instagram. We are antiquated-- its about videos now, not text and images.

Instead of playing online I've organized a neat gaming area at home were me and my frens can play games undisturbed. It's good to be able to call each other faggots and retards with no repercussion, as we used to do back in the day. It's part of the gaming experience. The only rule is no weed (makes you retarded and annoying to be around)
