I’m getting close to benching 255 for 3 reps. My goal is to do that by the end of November
Hello fellow /fit/izensI'm training to do a complete handstand, my goal is to do a full handstand at the end of this year. Hopefully being able to walk on my hands. I'm currently training to do a frog stand for longer than 10 seconds.
unclogged my sink drain todayfeel greatWAGMI
>>76768326starting a new routine today, based around 5/3/1 Boring but big, with 2 accessory days thrown in. since i was doing 5/3/1 for a year my arms didnt get bigger but my lifts got bigger. now i think i want big arms too so the 2 days are added to get bigger arms and calves while still moving up on my main liftssquat/OHP/accessory/Deadlift/Bench/Accessory/restHLR and pullups are accessory lifts on barbell days
big thanks to the looksmax suggestion poster on how to handle the wife. it got me into the mindset that doing unattractive stuff (poking the bit of fat on my gut, other things like that) is almost necessarily going to lead to some level of disrespect. so i started digging around for some of tighter clothes and they fit perfectly, tucking my shirts in, got my car cleaned inside and out, and booked an appointment to get the hair on the back of my neck lasered off. anyway, thanks for the new mindset. mires have been up which is good for the ego. thanks to apple's new update, my vo2 max is now considered High has been for over a month. kinda sucks that it's due to an algorithm shift. i haven't been using the cpap but i did record myself for snoring the other night and there has been a drastic reduction. went for my second bodyscan and it has me down 3 pounds but the distributions are also kinda f'd. don't regret buying the package but it's obvious that the thing isn't perfect. more importantly i averaged around 201 last week, really hoping to see below 200 before next Monday. 195 was the target from the sleep doc, but if i could get and stay under 200 throughout the holidays i'd be stoked. also finished reading another book, and started another. slowly but surely getting through what's basically a decade long logjam. goals this week are unfortunately the same from last week since i was burned out at work. expand my consulting practice. i also want to identify another useless certificate to get. i also want to continue writing out that meal prep guide as well as create an AI model for generating cover letters using my own writing style. last week of November let's get it
successfully finished 2 weeks of my cut. gonna reduce my training volume a little this week and focus more on home projects. next week should be able to upgrade the home gym with a rack and barbell setup. WAGMI.>>76768608qrd on wife situation?
I WILL SUCCEED IN THIS JOBI WILL STUDY HARDI WILL PASS MY LEVEL 3 CFA EXAM Work is difficult but I’m improving. Compared to the last filing cycle, I feel much more confident in my work. I still have many concerns, but I feel much more capable. As I continue doing this job, I’ll continue improving. I’m confident that I’ll survive this job and eventually grow to be above average. I’ve finished learning new content for my exam. For the next 3 months, I’ll just be practicing and reviewing. I have enough time to master this content. This time I’m a little excited about taking my exam. I’m ready to complete the CFA program. Whenever I’m feeling down, I fantasize about how much better my life will be in a year after I’be finished it. I have a lot to look forward to. But I need to be strong and work hard. This time I will pass! The man you are today must brutally mog the man you were yesterday! Use every day as an opportunity to improve! The chance to prove ourselves draws closer! WAGMI!
>>76768326My local supplement store is hiring part time. They are good and kind of hippie as well. Gonna go to the library and print of my resume and see if I can't get something there. If so, guess my calling is to be a druid of some kind.
>>76768647nice, congrats on the cut. got married this year, had a miscarriage early on (basically just shit luck), we were going to start trying again about now but she wants to put that on hold until next year because of her new job and a retarded certification. this comes after putting buying a house on hold, and spending most weekends studying. we also sleep in separate rooms, which started out as my snoring waking her up, so i got a sleep study, diagnosed with sleep apnea, and got a cpap. then it was me moving around in my sleep (allegedly) and that would wake her up. so back to the other room. then we got twin beds and put them in the king frame, worked great for a week until it didnt and she turned into a massive cunt in the middle of the night because she couldn't fall back asleep so now i had to buy another mattress and move back to another room. none of that has impacted sex btw other than using protection again
>>76768477Good luck fren! Your digits indicate that you’ll crush your goals
>>76768563Congrats on fixing something around the house! It’s important to celebrate our little victories. WAGMI!
>>76768477>I'm training to do a complete handstandHey, I'm training for the same goal! Practicing it against the wall for now, my biggest problem is psychological - when not leaning over anything I just get this lizardbrain signal that I'm falling down and my form crumbles. Do you experience something similar?
>>76768704Give it a try! It’ll give you some money and you might get some samples. Good luck
>>76768608That’s really good advice, I’ll follow it myself. Good luck on your cut! You still have time to reach your goal weight
>>76768326Day was surprisingly good for a monday. Sometimes I don't hate being a construction worker.
>>76768326Meeting a girl off the apps tonight, done this a few times before and usually these girls are just the most broken people I have ever seen but this one seems more normal than most. Honestly dating off the apps is fucking agony and I hate it but I have a few more months before I become a wizard and I'll be damned if I at don't go down swinging.
>>76769360you try talking to women irl?
>>76769389Look I'm 29 now and am well past college age when I was surrounded by girls my age. I spent those years being consumed by anxieties and other bullshit that I have since sorted, and now I want to actually meet someone. The bars around me are full of old decrepit losers and my industry is almost completely men so I am not gonna meet women that way. My friendgroup is mostly crabtank losers who either stay single or put up with the most harpy-like batshit insane women so they arn't alone, and while we share hobbies I am slowly getting disgusted with their inability to improve themselves, so I am not gonna meet women through them. I really don't know what my options are at this point, so I'm stuck with the apps.
>>76769469I feel you. It's tough to meet new women at our age. The apps at least take the edge off and give you some options. I've met tons of girls off there, and while they're almost never long-term material, it's nice to have some company here and there. Ultimately, though, you'll find that meeting a girl the old-fashioned way is probably the only way to snag a sane, responsible one. I'm currently seeing two girls from the apps, and they're both "off" in one way or another. Makes me think of my ex and how much more complete we were as a couple. Not a great feeling.
>>76769535Ya I was with a girl for a while who was basically perfect for me, but I managed to fuck it up with my insecurities so she left. I was pretty broken up about it, but my friends and family assured me I would meet someone new. That never happened and I still think about her. She deleted me off social media a while back but last I saw she was engaged to some new guy, I hope shes happy wherever she is.
>>76768586Good luck on your new routine! Would you recommend 5/3/1? I need to grow my bench
I've been feeling quite sad lately. Whenever i have a social contact with colleagues or strangers, i get more sad and kinda feel like crying sometimes. Especially when i have to talk in groups it gets pretty bad and i kinda choke up. I had a burnout 1.5 yrs ago and these problems have been here ever since. Idk what to do anymore, anyone got tips? I'm thinking SSRIs, i don't think i can do this much longer.
>>76769469The older you get the harder it is to find one that hasn't been used up or is simply using you in that age bracket, there's also crazies to deal with. They're the ones who either couldn't find a mate in their 20's because they're unattractive/weird, had lengthy relationships that left them ruined and cold, or they're ready to settle down after going through men like water until they hit the wall. Or they have kids lmao. Although you will have one advantage: the older and more financially stable you become the more you'll attract women who're in their early to mid 20's, who are redeemable. Or you could just lower your standards a little; there may be someone in that age group who's a little weird or homely but would make a great girlfriend if she were given a chance.
>>76769599Damn, man. Those ones hurt. I've had a lot of time to reflect on what I messed up in my relationship, and I wanna say I've changed considerably since then and become a better person all around, but it's hard not to wonder how things could have gone had the change not occurred earlier. The only advice I can give is to realize that there is no going back. Relationships can be like quick-time events -- if you mess it up, that's it. All you can do is prepare yourself for the next opportunity and learn from your mistakes. >>76769741I was this way for a while. I'd held in my actual feelings for so long that almost any kind of social contact or negative emotion would affect me far too deeply. I felt like I was always on the verge of tears, despite being a rather undemonstrative person. I'd say that unless you've got some psychological issues or some unresolved "trauma," you're probably just suffering from the lingering effects of that burnout. It can last way longer than you might think. Mine lasted for years. (Part of the reason why I fucked up my relationship.) Don't rely on SSRIs. They're a diversion. You need to address the core issues in your life so that you can stand on your own two feet. What do you want? What's making you sad? Are you unfulfilled? What could change that? These are all questions you must ask yourself.>>76769742This.
>>76769741you need to dig deeper within your brain to understand why that happens, how it started, how you're acting because of itand then think about how you would want it to be different and how to changedon't take jew meds
>>76769763The thing is, my life is going pretty well. I got a good job that's fairly chill usually, and i find it interesting. I got a gf, albeit a Mexican (bpd?) one, idk it'll last but she really likes me. I live in west Europe so it really ain't bad at all. It's exactly as you said, feeling on the verge of tears large portions of the day when talking to people. I'm taking beta blockers here and there but it's so fucking annoying. I can't find a reason I'm feeling like this. Food? Exercise? Looking ppl in the eye or not looking in their eyes? Getting more friends? Nothing seems to matter to cure this issue. During my burnout i was mentally completely fucked, i couldn't and still can't properly watch a movie lol. Very humbling to have your mind poop out on you like that. What did you do to cure it? I'd do anything
>>76769354Appreciate these easy days. A hard day will be here before you know it
Life is hard and it is only getting harder.Whenever I thought tough times will be over and I can claim a better time, no, life will tell me something different.You will reach heights which will open even harder paths for you. Greater paths, paths with even more impact for those around you.But not comfier, not easier paths.And even if you don't want to go that way, you know already and done already too much. You can't enjoy simple things anymore.I do not claim that I am better than anyone else, no. I just choose a path nearly no one dares to go.That doesn't make me better in any way, maybe wiser but not better.And still, I do not wish for it to be different.I wish you all a good day, a good night, a good week.Do not fall into despair, do not fall for propaganda, it isn't over at all and even if something is bad, you can still be your best version.May the /sig/ archive help you on your way.May the motivational folder spark a light when times are getting dark.sigAnon files 01.2025for_my_anonshttps://mega.nz/folder/Lro2TQxT#xGKCfbRYvE5cUkCPZyjzGA/folder/L7RDBDBCMotivational picshttps://mega.nz/folder/Lro2TQxT#xGKCfbRYvE5cUkCPZyjzGA/folder/DmokwDhJsig topicshttps://mega.nz/folder/Lro2TQxT#xGKCfbRYvE5cUkCPZyjzGA/folder/7nQyyRaS
>>76768608>Another useless certA tefl certificate would be perfect.
>>76769806It sounds like you've got a decent life, which is great. I worry about those who have to start again from absolute zero. In regards to curing this -- it really depends on your symptoms, medical history, etc. Burnout absolutely messes with your emotions and physique and all that, and to me, it sounds like you're dealing with some longer-term complications from your previous burnout. It can sometimes take 2-3 years for someone to fully heal from that -- and that's if they're consistently getting better. It sounds overly simplistic, but that classic fixes work for something like this: proper sleep, proper nutrition, cutting out unnecessary stress, working on and maintaining social connections, etc. Try to be systematic about it and document things as much as you can. Now that you're a bit healthier, it might pay dividends to dig into your psychological well-being a bit more. You might find something that you were missing or looking for. Tackle the issue from multiple fronts. But in my case, I found that fixing my physical form helped greatly with establishing the resilience I needed to get back out into the world and be some form of happy again. I still get sad inexplicably, but I think that's just me, and that's also what's helped me become a successful artist. Hope this helps.
>>76770007Thanks for the links, sigAnon. The path ahead is difficult. But I must progress with confidence in myself. I am strong enough to make it. I WILL make it
>>76769741I'd honestly recommend putting yourself out there more often. The more you socialize, the more comfortable you'll feel
>>76768326What are your goals for this week?I don't want to re-install videogames anymore. I want to break free of that vicious cycle. I've quit them countless of times, and regretted going back to them as many times.
I am still a 24 year old virgin traveling the world.The cut seems to be going well as week by week I keep slimming down, with me seeing hints of bicep veins for the first time ever just the other day, a tighter, firmer midsection than ever before, and my cheekbones looking more chiseled. Still a ways to go, but my hope is that by the end of December I'll be low double digit body fat % and truly lean for the first time in my life successfully. Sadly I think I'm a bit smaller than I'd like to be or maybe it's just the low glycogen that's causing my body to look flatter, but the frame is good and once I slim down, I'll be primed for a lengthy lean bulk where every ounce of muscle makes me pop more. I am looking into gynecomastia surgery as well and thinking of doing it in South Korea, unless thailand itself has quality options for the price (I don't wanna skimp on quality). So as to not break the bank immediately, I'm thinking I'd pay in installments, or with a low interest credit card, or both. Need to get the plans on that sorted. Also, for future reference, is it better to prioritize bicep growth over triceps for a more aesthetician physique? Not that I'd ignore the latter but I hear a bicep dominant arm looks better.Lastly, I am considering just seeing a prostitute now at this point. I turn 25 in not too long, and I basically got all the validation I needed just from dancing with girls and almost hooking up with one a few weeks back, it feels kind of arbitrary to me and I don't see why I shouldn't just get it out of the way now so I can say I have. But then I'm not super pressed about losing it either.
>>76770349Good luck on quitting video games! As a piece of advice, try to have some hobbies you can immediately try out when you’re quitting a toxic one
It's rainy and it's 2 hours before the gym closes so there will be NO HOES at the gymWHY EVEN GO, FUCKwish me luck fellas otherwise I have to eyefuck the twinks :')

is it 1g of protein per POUND of body weight or per KILOGRAM of body weight? I'm 195lb and getting nearly 200 g of protein every day seems excessive. 90 g is much more reasonable.
>>76770884It's 1.67g per lb.
>>767708840.6-0.8g/kg of lean body mass
>>76770884it's 1 gram of protein per pound of LEAN body mass

This is going to sound fucking autistic but do you just walk into a barber shop and ask for a haircut or call in advance to get a timeslot? I haven't had my hair cut in no joke 7 years or so and it's starting to get annoying as fuck to me now and I need it cut. Also nervous about breaking their clippers, it unironically happened last time I got it cut because my hair matte's like crazy with how curly it is
You guys have anger issues?
Currently getting back into fitness since I became a fatass for like the fourth time in my life but I'm barreling towards thirty so I feel even more pressure. At least I know what to do to lose weight but everyone has been commenting about how I'm getting old and how I'm fat but I think its because I'm kinda hot when I'm at a lower bodyfat so I shrug it off but it does kind of hurt since I try my best to be nice. I've been getting my cardio in daily and it is finally helping me feel better unlike before when I'd do cardio I just got physically tired, it helps me get through my day. The hardest part is not having a steady income source, I just get what I can for food and no membership. I have some light weights and a calisthenics tower/Olympic rings so it isn't so terrible. I've lost a few pounds since being consistent for about two weeks, creatine and pre-workout at dangerous levels have pretty much kept me moving. I take probably way too much pre-workout because its the only thing right now getting me active. I'm also really sad right now because a distant relative tried to take advantage of a special needs cousin of ours and I've been trying to bring my family together to little success. I can't seem to get on my feet but I get by.
>>76772126depends on where you live and how many people go therebut it's best to call>>76772174no I fucking don't and don't imply it ;pI used to get irratioanlly angry at anything and everything but I've learned to control it and direct it towards useful pursuits
>>76772174>Thats my secret Cap, I am always angry
>>76772174Not towards other people, but I get really frustrated with myself personally.I also get frustrated about humanity in general, but never really one person in particular- kinda just mad at the world and the status quo.I’m pretty sure I’ve got bipolar, though. It runs in the family, and when I got psych evaluated for ADHD I guess that was also part of the battery and I didn’t quite check enough of the boxes for it.I also have reaaal bad reactions to certain medications that line up with bipolar, manic episodes brought on by SSRIs. I was thinking back on it and I’m pretty much always either in a really good mood, or a really bad mood.Like I can’t stop thinking about how fucked literally everything is, or I’m having an A1 day and am so glad to be me. At first I figured it was depression or anxiety because the bad moods were so dominant and long-standing, but then I realized I’m literally never “meh”/ just alright.I kinda think the reason I didn’t qualify on the evaluation was because most of the questions about being in a bad mood were either über-depression bait questions or were like >”how often do you completely lose your shit at a total stranger?”>”how many times per week do you go red in the face screaming at someone, wether you know them or not”>”how often do you throw a tantrum in the grocery store and throw shit because someone looked at you wrong?”Literally none of it was about being mad at yourself.Sorry man, I kinda turned this into a blogpost about self loathing issues.Short answer: yes but probably a little different than yours.
>>76768326Banned for racism again over the weekend. Had a productive weekend.
It's only been 3 days, but I'm really enjoying going to the gym and I actually look forward to it every day! I've only been using the treadmill because I'm too anxious to go to the free weight area just yet, but I'll build up the courage to in time. Right now on the treadmill I'm doing 10% incline, 3 mph, and working towards going for 40 minutes. I'm only at 25 minutes so far, but it really does get easier every day since I could barely do 15 on the first day and 3 mph felt way too fast-- Now it feels too slow! Every day I make myself do 5 minutes more than I did the day before and it feels good to see the progress. I'll keep doing my best.
>tfw my nemesis started lifting and he sucks at itHoh-lee I’m am pumped about that, haha. I don’t know if any of you guys have an irl nemesis, but I do and I hate that motherfucker like nobody’s business.It’s a beef that goes back to high school, and we still live in the same town and have some of the same friend circles, so we run into each other every once in a while.I’ve tried to squash it a few times but god damn we both just hate each other so much, it’s honestly pointless lmaoIt doesn’t help that we’re both capable of being total pieces of garbage.I know it’s not healthy and honestly I hadn’t thought about it in a while, but I ran into a friend that I hadn’t seen in like a decade and we hung out for a while. It was awesome, I was elated to catch up with the dude. I missed that motherfucker. He mentioned that I’m looking jacked as fuck compared to high school, and I told him I’d been lifting.He then said that he’d gone to the gym a while back, with said nemesis, who is apparently “very into fitness nowadays, it’s like his new thing.”It makes sense because we both went through a pretty gnarly alcoholism phase and got a little out of shape in our mid twenties. I asked what lifts they were doing, and oh my fucking god it’s just dyel central dicking around with sub 20lb dumbbells, no bench, no barbell anything.It’s such a petty thing, but that made me so happy that that dude is out there, sucking at lifting. Probably not eating right either.I know for a fact he will be getting mogged like fuck if we run into each other again, and honestly it’s been fantastic lifting motivation. It will be all the more better because he’ll likely be expecting to mog me, thinking I’ll still be an out of shape alcoholic. Am I petty? Yes.Is it propelling me towards even better gains? Absolutely.I’m only at 1pl8 reps but this will get me to 2pl8 in no time, I can feel it.
>>76772596I don’t have social media anything- I feel like that’s somewhat relevant to this for whatever reason.The mogging will happen in person, and it will be an unprecedented surprise.
>>76770857You might be overtraining. Are you giving yourself sufficient rest?
>>76772691not that anon but because of my schedule I’ve been going for either four or five days in a row, alternating workouts.The workouts focus on different muscle groups, but it’s the same two just abab or ababa- if you have any info on overtraining I’d appreciate any links or general wisdom.I just want to make the most of eating this god damned much and the weird schedule I keep to even be able to go to the gym.My lifts don’t seem to be suffering too badly, but I’d like to know what to look out for.Sometimes I am still a bit sore even though it’s been 48 hours since doing whatever workout I’m doing. I’m in it for gains as opposed to prioritizing strength alone, if that matters.
>>76771450Welcome back! You’ll be back before you know it!

>>76772174I've got lot's of self hate if that counts.
I've had a cold and lower back pain for most of the previous week so I did not have much progress in anything. No lifting, no going out with friends, no time on hobbies.But this one will be different.
>>76772553I’m glad you’re enjoying going to the gym! Go to the free weight section soon. There are plenty of good guides on easy lifts. You’re already making a lot of progress, soon you’ll be lifting heavy. Great job!
>>76773359I live in a very big city, but it feels small if you grew up here. I think everywhere does, honestly. It’s not some kind of obsession, I honestly forget about it until we run into each other.Just a fun way to refer to the fact that we hate each other’s guts, is all.Yes, we are a little old for this shit (hence me trying to bury the hatchet multiple times), the guy’s just that much of an asshole though lmaoI just run into him every once in a while and we don’t like each other, can’t a guy have a nemesis?
>>76774567>Alcoholic is an out of shape, sub 2 pl8 dickheadI guarantee your nemesis isn't the only person who dislikes you. Kids, coworkers, """friends""". Get your shit together. Do not @ me if you are sub 5'11".
Just finished yet another interview.This one went decent. I've learned from my previous mistakes and:-was calmer-wrote things down as they were explained to me-asked questionsand they'll get back to me in 1 to 1.5 weeks so yeah, I'm actually looking forward to it.
>>76774681Holy fucking projection, mane.You might as well be talking to a mirror while wearing your two inch lifts.
>>76774726Hell yeah, anon!Grats. I don’t know that I’ve seen your posts in particular, but interviews are just vibe checks and I love them.They put the majority of people out of their comfort zones, but once you get used to it they can be a breeze.Hopefully that one was your last one for a while, but even if that isn’t the case you’ve proven to be a dynamic human bean, capable of growth and change.Just think about how you’ve grown since your first post about perhaps not doing so well during one.Try to hang on to the feeling that thought gives you and remember it when you’re having moments of self doubt or anxiety.WAGMI
>>76772553Hell yeah, anon.Loving this for you, and if I have any advice for someone just starting out on their journey it’d be: consistency is more important than intensity.It is fantastic that you’re able to do more and more each day, but there will inevitably be days that you face obstacles, and one must remember that going for a half workout is always better than not going at all.If you’re ever seriously “not feeling it,” get yourself down there and just walk through the doors, doesn’t matter if you only do one exercise and leave.Although it may not seem it, working out is not the hard part- consistency is.Godspeed meng, you’re doing the thing.
>>76768326working overtime again, but lifting helps save the day.
>>76772553Also- I had a gym membership for like a year before I did anything with free weights (only machines) and I regret it so much.I was always afraid of them because I had a buddy that fucked his back up working out in high school and I would always hear him complain about it.I absolutely love them now and have been taking so much satisfaction in the growth I’ve been achieving with compound lifts.YouTube videos are your best pal, I’ve found that there are good channels out there but personally am wary of ones that put out a crazy amount of content. If one does, they usually have okay/good videos early on when they’re covering the basics, but then shit goes downhill when they’ve run out of good content and have to keep churning shit out. Do not harbor any shame in practicing stuff with just the bar until you’re 100% confident in your form.Practice good form, make sure you’re engaging the proper muscles, know your limits, and all that jazz. WAGMI.
>>76775026Sometimes working out is the only thing I do all day that I feel good about myself for doing.But that’s okay, because I’ve done at least one thing that I can be proud of, and I’m growing.When you’re bogged down like fuck from working like that, at least you can take solace in the notion that you’re not 100% complacent/stagnating.I’m proud of you for that, too anon.
>>76775037thank, anon.
>>76772596There’s nothing wrong with being petty. Use this as motivation to reach new heights. I wonder what percentage of my high school classmates are obese nowt. Class of 2016

>>76774957No. It's because I've met too many fuckers like you IRL. Drama causing faggots for the most petty reasons who never stopped acting like a dumb dickhead teen.
>>76775026Gay faggot Reddit image. Go back and stay there.
>>76775433>getting this pissy over a random image that was downloaded on google imageease yourself there, nigger.
>>76773959Feel better soon fren. Don’t rush yourself. There’s no point in getting back into lifting just to hurt yourself again. Do you have any hobbies you can do when you aren’t feeling well? In any case, you’ll be back before you know it
>>76774726Good luck anon! And good job learning from your mistakes, it's one of the most important skills to have.
I went to the gym today after a 4-day weekend where I had all sorts of junk food and the first thing my trainer said to me is "you look fat"
On Wednesdays I was working at my second job until today, when my boss told me she was bankrupt and unable to pay me anymore. It wasn't that bad cause I foresaw a bad end to this job, it was fucked from very early on and at this point I doubted we were going to see it to the end.So I'm relieved in a way. For one, I don't have to deal with the uncertainty anymore and the whims of an abusive client. Also, all the loss goes to my boss. If she pays what she owes me, which aint much anyways, I'm unscathed from that mess. I wanted to see it to the end tho but at the dame time it's nice to have free time again, working two jobs is exhausting, now idk what to do with two entire free days this week.But I love my job and hate that it came to an end like that. My boss blundered hard against an extreme bully of a client who bankrupted her because she was unable to take control of the situation, when it was not a hard job to begin with. It's a tough world for weak people and she was too soft and naive.
>>76775921Hope that gives you motivation to not relapse next weekend
