beware the cardio to chud pipeline

>>76927343
This is why I lift.
>>
Actually I disagree massively.

If anything lifting has showed me how everything is genetics and if you have shit genes youre basically fucked when it comes to seeing good results in the gym.

Ive been lifting for 10+ years and there will be guys with good genetics who come into the gym and within 6 months look 10X better than I do.

So yeah if anything the gym made me move more to the left in that life is unfair as fuck with things out of our control and that maybe yeah those who are lucky genetically who share what they have with us less fortunate.

Why do I have to struggle to get under 20% bodyfat when you effortlessly maintain 8% bodyfat because of ur genetics? Why should get you huge muscles lifting with less effort than I do just because ur genetics allow u to look at a weight and gain tons of muscle where as for me muscle just refuses to build on my body
>>
>>76927354
True and there will always be men who are superior, in any domain, it's unavoidable, but you probably still look better than the 95% that don't lift at all.
>>
>>76927354
>the gym made me move more to the left in that life is unfair as fuck
how is that a leftist belief? do you believe in social equity and money distribution?
>>
>>76927381
Because genetics isn't just about the gym, its with intelligence and the capability to acquire resources to build wealth
>>
>>76927354
>why do I have to struggle
He who would live must fight. He who doesn't wish to fight in this world, where permanent struggle is the law of life, has not the right to exist.
>>
>>76927386
You do not understand yourself and the ideas that possess you.
Acknowledging genetic differences is fundamentally right wing coded.
If you were moving left you would deny this basic reality and try to convince yourself it was all socially constructed or the result of some kind of bias or social conditioning where the gym or gym staff somehow prefer the other guy and give him unearned gains.
The fact that you want to offset or compensate for this genetic difference is just empathy - everyone wants to care for and elevate those inferior to themselves (albeit you’re looking at this the other way around).
Empathy is more neutral, but typically manifests in the right as ‘I will help/be helped by my community’ and in the left as ‘the government should help me and my community’.
So whether you’re really becoming more leftist or not depends on the approach you instinctively reach for in this situation- individual or institutional?
Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

> do you believe in social equity and money distribution?
yes

This is a more complicated answer than this identity politician deserves, but here goes: once you understand how merit requires improvement, the initial pull is to acquire as much personal merit as possible. Once you hit your prescribed cap for personal merit, any further effort is past the point of diminishing returns for yourself. This is where the real decision needs to be made. Do you stop accumulating merit because you have enough, or do you continue to accumulate to contribute to things outside yourself? Any excess is wasted unless it is distributed. Figure it out, lefties. The most gracious and society serving members continue to produce to benefit the whole, while the greedy and overly simple will just bitch and be lazy, benefitting no one, not even themselves.

No, retard. This is some Ayn Rand levels of delusions. Maybe this was true in a time of higher corporate tax rates and no stock buy backs, but since Reagan the rich have gotten exponentially richer, while everyone else has been struggling more. The greed problem in society is with the top 1%, not the majority. It has been proven that trickle down economics is complete bullshit. Stop falling for propaganda and actually learn something.

>>76927343
OTT, lifting has not changed my political views at all. Anyone who's views can be easily influenced by simply hearing other viewpoints is a retard. Knowing the value of discipline and hard work did not push me further right.

This sounds like low t and dietary issues. Low t isn't genetic either. Take 30mg zinc and 50mg (or mcg?) vitamin d. Start getting more sun. Cut out all wheat and most sources of sugar. This will all make lifelong differences in health and aesthetics. A lot of guys also virtually cap natty gains after about 6 years, especially if they started in their 20s. Beyond that you may struggle to see +5lbs on your bench press per year. It's not uncommon, and as you push into your 30s gains slow down even more and eventually you just fight to keep what you had until you pin trt. The switch from good gains and a healthy body to athlete level hollywood aesthetics comes from either elite training since you were a teenager or the needle. Women do not want you to look like you pin. As long as you're 5'8+ (actual genetic issue) and fit by eating healthy and exercising, you should have no issue finding love.

>>76927354
Because when you struggle for your results they matter more and they make you a stronger man overall than the guy who got it effortlessly. And eventually, when you mog him, he will never catch up because you are far harder and cannier than he is. I also think that you're being a dramatic faggot here. Excluding some weird hormonal shit, most men are capable of getting into very good shape. The one complaining about lack of progress are almost certainly doing something very basic wrong or half assin it

This is pretty much it. Id I had the choice of choosing a society where I live but the world is choked with jeets and blacks and the rivers are toxic, nature destroyed, population skyrocketing and composed of genetic trash, or the choice of some sort of Elysium where the genetically blessed live in paradise but I've been filled I still choose the latter. Better a paradise without me than a shit hole with me in it

>Why do I have to struggle to get under 20% bodyfat when you effortlessly maintain 8% bodyfat because of ur genetics?
Lol, lmao even.
I take roids and glp1 agonists. I mog normies with my physique thanks to reta. I've gained and lost 50 lbs in the span for 4-5 months twice. First time using DNP and t3, second time same stack but with glp1 agonists.
Dieting is easy as fuck, the only thing I hate is how SLOW it is. 1 lbs a week? Fuck that, add in 200mg of DNP and 25mcg of t3 and that becomes 2.2 lbs a week for me. Problem is, self control stays the same, bit the cravings double so it becomes twice as hard to diet.
THANK GOD FOR GLP1 agonists!
Anywho, moral of this story is it isn't genetics. It's pharmacopeia and you can massively level the playing field with it. Everyone with decent physiques is doing drugs, period.

>>76927354
if you lift hard and eat a surplus you will make gains, guaranteed. lifting is probably one of the easiest pursuits of all time. You are just a retard.
>>
>>76931351
Eating surplus is the hardest thing of lifting. How the fuck I'm I supposed to eat 3k calories in a single day when I'm full for 5 hours from a good 1k calorie meal and I have to go to work and sleep 8 hours on top of that? And no I'm not gonna drink olive oil
>>
>>76931358
I agree, eating is the hardest part. It's trainable, got to progressively overload the stomach.

Why not just kill the genetic trash and use the extra resources for the genetic cream to produce someone more useful?
>>
>>76931416
Because communism/Marxism is an actively dysgenic philosophy. It literally aspires to bring the average down and make everyone worse in the name of equality of outcome. Leftism is a mental, emotional, and spiritual disease that aspires to also be a physical disease.

this is not how you spell trenbolone, low-dose daily tadalafil, retatrutide, and SARMs. almost everyone is doing it or has at least, tried it in the past. smart folks do not admit it and act like it was all natty.
this is very much how bulimia works in various competitive social settings: everyone does it but no one talks about it.

Maybe write down everything you eat for a week or two and see your calorie intake.
