Just started lifting in my late 30s. after a few weeks i noticed my posture has improved. is building muscle really that much harder at this age? Is there actually a physical limitation besides injury?
>>
>>75130996
Happens to everyone bud, keep at it.
>>
>>75131132
Your test levels are a little lower and I've heard it's more difficult to put on muscle. Maybe your joints are not really what they used to be.
But really it doesn't matter, you just need more warm up and maybe more time for recovery, inless you are going to compete professionallly your going to get 80% or more of the way there. Most people's problem is weak will and anything better than what you have currently is an improvement
>>
>>75131132
It'll be slower and it's easier to get fat, and your joints might be a bit more fussy about stuff. For example, if you can't bench the bar to your chest, don't do it with weights. If you do deep dips, you'll hurt your shoulder. Technique becomes more important. But otherwise in a 1 or 2 years from now you'll look way better, so don't worry about your progress compared to some 20 year old faggot.
>>
>>75131148
>>75131158
thanks lads I have not had any joint pain or doms at all, maybe because I'm getting enough protein or because I'm still at low weights. I am lifting my maximum 5 rep compounds. I think having kids builds quite a bit of functional muscle.

anon you gotta play with the cards you are dealt.

>>75131229
I only get doms if I haven't trained a muscle for like 3 weeks. I train 5x per week and I never get doms day to day. I got doms in my calves after a 5 hour hike though.

Imagine being this Beta, it sound more like you should get your T levels checked.

The guy in your picture would be an incel mass shooter if he lived in 2024
>>
>>75131302
how long did it take you to reach 60kg ohp from 30kg?
>>
>>75131397
Hmm maybe a year. I started at 28 and I was really inconsistent until I hit 30. I did plenty of stupid stuff like just not adding weight for weeks. I think you could do it in under a year. Do strict presses and then go beyond failure by doing push presses where you bend your knees a bit to assist, and slowly lower the weight for about 3 seconds.

>>75130996
>Im too old now and will never make it
Sad but true. At least you admit it unlike all the other millennials.

I'm 41 and yeah it started going to shit from about 38. Up until that point I felt like a constantly improving version of myself at 28 still. Now I'm like what the fuck is happening to my facial structure? Why am I so grey? Why do I get a bad back from driving for too long? Also, until recently I'd have never wanted to relive my youth. I viewed it as a more difficult time where as now I felt fully in control of my world and was known for skills, knowledge, ability. The world finally felt like my oyster. Now nostalgia makes me tear up. I'd love to go back to experience that intense naivety once more.

>>75130996
What's with all the "I'm 30/in my 30s its so over" posts lately. Its a huge influx.

Where do you even meet women nowadays? The gym is a nono for approaching and I feel in general cold approach is dead in 2024. I’m on a dryspell since early July but broke up with gf and getting kinda desperate because I don’t see any good women around. No I don’t go outside besides the gym and occasional grocery shopping or walks with a friend . Also I can’t go on dating apps
>>
>>75134066
just yolo that shit. There's this cute cashier at the gas station near my gym and im gonna ask if i can give her my number next time i see her. Probably get rejected but fuck it.

Dating apps are fucking worse than dog shit.

>had my heart broken by a fwb this week and haven't been able to fucking eat
>Dating apps full of women who want to settle down and all I want is something casual and room to breathe.
>Time isn't waiting for me

I do consider just ending it. I'm so desperately sad anons.
