why the board is so dead? i'll say the quality is better but in 2021 it was way more active
>>77035060Internet is dead
>>77035060>2021newfag retardyou should've seen 2010-2011
>>77035060the new bloods are on the 'tok
>>77035066>>77035060>>77035065>>77035062are you millennials that talk like zoomers now?
>>77035076No, now we're millennials who went full trans-zoomer off deranged China anti-aging drugs.
>>77035076>4r3 y0u m1ll3nn14l5 t4ht t4lk l1k3 z00m3r5 n0w?
>>77035060>the quality is betterNOW? Are you mad
>>77035060Everyone is old and working fulltime jobs with families now. I know people like to dunk on zoomers shitting the place up a lot, but in reality they're not coming here at nearly the rate millennials are dropping off for real life shit. Zoomers tend to funnel into places like trooncord, tiktok, roblox, and probably some other shit I don't even know about.
>>77035060Everyone got blackpilled becuase every influencer is using gear.
>>77035062Internet is dead>>77035076They are mentally ill. >>77035231I do wonder if the ipad kids are so fucked up they don't even use the internet. Well that's life.
>>77035060>>77035062everyone is on like 4-5 social media or watching streamers. posting on image boards is for boomers
>>77035060Rich looks good here.
>>77035330What the fuck are those legs? How tall was he
>>77035062nah. 4chan, instagram and youtube are millenial platforms. millenials are all realizing they have to stop jerking off online as much because they are shackled to mortgages with kids and other real life burdens. that means even if they still consume a lot to cope with their wagie lives, they create content and participate with posts a lot less. social media is always a young person's game. right now zoomers, as someone else here said, have chosen tiktok and discord as their preferred platforms. millenial platforms wont completely die but they will consolidate to a few large ones, the way boomers all stay on facebook.
>>77035060in 2021 i would click refresh and it would be all new posts on the catalog
>>770353376' But like legit, unlike many bodybuilding faggots.
>>77035060>but in 2021 it was way more activeIt's almost like everyone was forced to be inside and had nothing better to do with their time.I wonder what happened.
>>77035231I have a full time job but since I'm a manlet and will never be loved I have plenty of time to post during my breaks and after work
>>770353935'10" more accurate.
>>77035340Smart post.
>>77035076I do it because I'm getting old and I enjoy ruining things for young people.
As an actual OF (been here since 2017 before you whine) the boards never been shitter than now I assume most of the millenials moved on or actually got lives. The zoomers still here are usually outcasts that don’t fit in on IG or x or whatever
>>77035681You've been on Only Fans since 2017?
>>77035340this
>>77035060I took a break, nothing interesting just frauds larping as natty, CBT was a cancer and some idiots here would post the same pictures taken a year ago.Its was just larping and shitty memes, maybe some bots are gone after post changes
>>77035231This. Millennials are aging out of 4chan and zoomers don't care about this website
>>7703534024 year old zoomer here, this sounds about rightOut of everyone my age that I know only one other person used this website, and I believe he no longer doesAll the normies post their boring photos on instagram, but they mostly consume tiktok slop (the ones who don't still consume instagram reels slop)
>>77035337It doesn't even matter how tall he was. Look at those lift-shoes. Dude was short on the inside.
>>77035681nice baitZero original fags left. I was a newfag in 2008.
There have been quite a few times when I started to come on here to start a thread about a specific theory or question... only to realize I could just go talk to AI and get a better answer than the retards on here and get it faster and shit. Obviously I am still here and I generally do recognize that there are smart anons who might even be better to talk to than Grok. But its a lot faster to just talk to grok
>>77035060If that's 47 I'm literally 27.
>>77035748Actually yeah what the fuck is going on there
I don't understand how the misc died and it didn't help /fit/ at all. What the fuck happened to the miscers? Dont tell me they went to reddit
>>77036705Clout goblin OF whores in gyms running guys off with fake claims and ruining thingsVaxxx crippling and killing most off (RIP Joesthetics)Everyone is broke and worried about the future
>>77035060>i'll say the quality is betterlol
there's porn on the catalogue too often. an irrelevant question/lust provoking image thread stays up till bump limit or is up 12hrs until our lone janny rolls out of bed to her/their battlestation. old board culture threads are hung out to dry; fph is derailed by fucking chubby chasers posting fetish shit half the time. motivation threads & feels bar get jannied. last, like others said, there's nothing new going on in fitness except for being half natty. half the people at the gym are on sauce, or some other compound that's totally safe and legal bro. that's exhausting. nothing else new is going on.
>>77037513>there's porn on the catalogue too oftenwe used to have niko avokado asshole every other day like?
>>77037572that doesn't make me want to go beat off. may marmalade does.
>>77035060extreme censorship + influx of indians, but this could be said for basically any board and any website. I too miss /fit/ before 2021
>>77037513>porn on the catalogue too oftennot as often as before, and the quality is way worse. I still miss high test threads
Fitness culture died outIt was at its peak in the early to mid 2010s during the Zyzz and Piana era. Also The Rock becoming the biggest actor in movies then helped push mainstream appeal of bodybuilding. However sometime in the late 2010s social media went from a motivational hub to influencer culture where the Internet became filled with charismaless hacks rather than larger than life characters like Piana. The pandemic also fucked things up and people started associating gym bro with right wing politics because gyms were defiant to the lockdown nonsense.
>>77035681>2017i was a 2010 guyoriginal oldfags were from like 2007 back when I was browsing fark.com and encyclopediadramatica and thought 4chan was this really super scary place for 1337 hackz0rs4chan peaked in 2011 with the /v/ vs reddit tribes ascend shazbowl/fit/ peaked in like 2014 or 2015
>>77037839Nah, fitness is still big. The term "bodybuilding" just has an "incel" stigma attached to it now, even if it's effectively what people are still doing.
>>77035060There are several factors>This board got flooded by constant /r9k/, porn spam, and blackpill shit in recent years and jannies refuse to mop it up.>Bodybuilding, the main focus of /fit/ during the 2010s, is a dying hobby. Most young people into fitness now are focusing on aesthetics and looksmaxing as opposed to maxing out their squats.>Dieting has pretty much been solved. Just eat tons of protein and count your calories. And if you can't do that, just take Ozempic.>Zoomers and Alphas are moving to other platforms like Tiktok, Instagram, and the Looksmax forums for fitness advice.
>>77035076No, he's right. The internet is all muds and bots now. Why do you think they had to implement this retarded captcha shit?
>>77035340Depressing but I guess you are right. I am either going to have to move over to TikTok and get used to being old there and irrelevant, or hanging out on places like this and watch them slowly fade to nothing like forums did. This sucks.
>>77038387don't worry bro just wait for the new influx of Gen Alphas coming into this website in like 2030 after they saw a YouTube vid about scary hackerz and murdererz on here. then they'll cargo cult our culture, copy it(without understanding it's essence), and let it decay for longer instead of letting it die in peace. Like what happened to Reddit with zoomers flooding the place around 2020.
>>77037827>I still miss high test threadsBasedReminder that ESL newfag religious tradlarp latinx types who flooded into 4chan around 2020 are the ones who got high test threads banned
>>77038499I think because of COVID all the normies, or one of those "limbo-people" too weird to be a normie too normie to be a weirdie types just flooded places where they shouldn't be and generally just ruined things and the culture and vibe of the place. there is nothing wrong with new influx, some here including me haven't even seen 2017 4chan. just don't be a fag that's all.
>>77035060A lot of people left. I left, just come here once in a blue moon. Lifting became too mainstream and stale. Most of it is now brocollihead looksmaxxing culture now.
>>77035681>2017>oldfagLol. Lmao, even.
>>77038510/fit/ got filled with a bunch of third world christlarpers who seethed against high test threads and got them banned
>>77038539>>77038499There is nothing high test about liking obese women."High T" threads always went from curvy women to literal fucking obese pigs very quickly.
>>77038618High test dudes fuck whatever Low test dudes only want to attempt to think about banging their exact type Skelly infertile waifu
>>77036583Been here since 08 as wellThe board goes through fads but the latest high traffic times have been just utter garbage
>>77038618Cope newfag
>>77038631Yes, yesYes, yes
The culture just changed over the years. Genuinely good threads are very rare, maybe once a month or longer at this point due to how much traffic has slowed down. In the meantime it's just bait, schizos, anti-schizos, dude weed/steroids/creatine/coffee lmao, porn, chubby chasers anonymous, etc. It's like 99% bait on the daily.I don't know if it's just indians or underageb&s but the quality of content on the board is just not there anymore. Been thinking about it for a while now but it's probably just for the best to stop coming here, for me at least.
>Collectively whine about every single training method>Collectively whine about any sports>Whine about boomers (a decent chunk of lifters) and especially gen z (the majority of lifters also) 24/7 because most posters left here are mentally touched millennial middle child>Porn and ragebait all the time>Off-topic garbage like biohacking stays up (yes it does not partain to lifting, either make the board a "health" one or push them to /adv/. It's not like they ever post any verifiable results they're just psoaschizo tier spammers who paint the thread full of pubmed links they dont read)>Most people posting here dont even lift or are total noobs, lifting is piss easy anyways and already figured out, but people seethe when you trollpostFuck i wonder why there's no new bloods and why everyone but the mental patients is left !! Such a peculiar predicament totally not because this place was always filled with faggots and never had interesting discussion
>>77037839>Fitness "dead">Literally everything in stores now "PROTEIN *product*">Half the women in the gym 18 and over on var>17 year old zoomers going infertile taking superdrol for insta/tiktok attentionYeah idk about that chief.
>>77035060Probably fitness trends. I've noticed that as well, board is very dead compared to even 3 years ago. It's the eb and flow of gym culture getting popular
>>77039006They mean that their little gay subculture of bitter middle aged guys isnt popular. They're just seething about said teens
>>77035340So... what you're saying is that internet is dead. Its not like zoomers are people with their own personally-formed opinions, they just parrot the absolute trash fires that they grew up with. White exceptionalism and upward mobility for humanity were dead before they were born, there was nothing good left for them to use for advancement or useful thought by the time they came around, so their existence is a net loss for humanity.
>>77039024>Probably fitness trends.THIS more than anything. The current "fitness" trend is to go to Dr. Goodgoy for a GLP-1, lose all ur muscles, then come back asking for a referral to a Jewish ophthalmologist to treat NAION.
>>77038631I've been posting on 4chan since 2007. >>77038625>>77038625>High test dudes fuck whateverNo, that would be black animals. High T dudes can actually choose who they want to fuck. And that sure as hell won't be obese pigs.
>>77035340>instagram and youtube are millenial platforms.Lmao do people really believe this mental masturbation
Americans have no sense of self-actualization or guilt. They always love to blame things on abstracts to get away from responsibiltiy>It's muh moot !>It's muh zoomers !! (most of the website is bitter 30yos)>it's muh fbi/cia/mi5>it's muh jooos !!!How about this : you "create" (regurgitate from elsewhere, this place is unoriginal and never made anything in its existence including wojak and pepe which are foreign) the content here and spread it accross boards. You're the reason it sucks.
>>77039158Enjoy high test women was the norm before homosexual jews infiltrated the media and promoted twigsSee Rubens
>>77039209*Enjoying
>>77039209Good goy
>>77039209There is nothing high T about liking obesity. No matter how much you gaslight yourself.
>>77039209>promoted twigsYou have no idea what the world was like before readily-available, cheap food.
This board is good for the first 1-2 years you start posting.After that, you learn nothing new.
i got here too young in 2011 and just wanna say the overmoderationfags are and always have been the worst. look at half the posts in here whining about every fucking thread that isn't /plg/, these fags want to make a dead board even deader, what is wrong with you fags?truth is /fit/ got worse when the dropped the "health" from "health & fitness" and started banning everyone for doing anything but asking if high bar or low bar is better. it's like banning motorcycle discussion on /o/ it makes no sensethe whole site is slower than it used to be but see /tv/ for a board that has managed to retain slightly more of it's original nature over the years; the way it is now is much the way it's always been, and jannies SEETH that they can't ban people for the in-jokes and actressposting because it's uh, all actually film and television related.just look at the faggots seething about looksmaxing in here, how tf is that not a /fit/ category? it's about looking better, kinda the point of fitness
>>77035060Because mods delete all the fun threads
>>77039635I left tevee because no one was cvnny pisting anymore. Imagine going there to have a rational discussion if television and film lmao
>>77039224>>77039239>>77039259Imagine being brainwashed by pro stick jew media to prefer twigs
Been here since 2012, shame 4chan is dying but that's just how things work in life. Feels like this board had one more fresh breath of air during covid and then just now is slowly dying off. I guess it's now tiktok, discord, twitter, other big social media sites.
>>77039709>this random old book told me so!Left is objectively more attractive and better for children.
>>77039185burger here but youre correctlots of whining and reminiscing, very little do-ing
Zoomers use the looksmax forum.
>>77035340Basically this. Just us losers left, revisiting the scraps and bones of something that was alive and vibrant, once.
>>77035231i am failing at life but i am financially stable so nobody notices or cares. the only thing that matters in western society is money. if you had a loving family and a kind soul and you were poor, you would be called a failure.
>>77039709You're just mentally ill. How can you say thin/normal weight/healthy women are a jewish propaganda? When obesity has been always pushed as normal and good?You low IQ cretin mongrel.
>>77039709>>77040185Normal/healthy weight is a scam according to the latest research. Slightly overweight *with just above essential body fat* is actually the healthiest, not some subhuman twig or hamplanet. You can look this shit up, it has been replicated across countless recent studies.And yes a j00 did start the twig meme as a big tobacco psyop: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_Bernays#Tobacco...yet consider picrel advocating swoleness, even to the point of unhealthy obesity. Clearly not the J-word hivemind monolith right-wing Chuds like to paint.
>>77040211You're such a goycattle that it's almost hilarious.You bash kikes yet you say stupid shit like "le latest research". Funded by who? Answer that yourself and stop wasting my time, you pig lover.
>>77035060browns and spics ruined it
>>77040007there's not a single hwhite on that board
>>77040217>"le latest research". Funded by who?Here's one funded by the Chinese government:>Association of Body Mass Index with All-Cause Mortality and Cause-Specific Mortality in Rural China: 10-Year Follow-up of a Population-Based Multicenter Prospective Study>https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0895398825001588>All-cause mortality decreased rapidly until reaching a BMI of 25.7 kg/m2 (aHR = 0.95, 95% CI: 0.92–0.98) and increased slightly above that value, indicating a U-shaped association. The beneficial impact of being overweight on mortality was robust in most subgroups and sensitivity analyses....I'm sure the j00000z did that one, eh?
Rip
>>77035060I think its the captcha, I can never figure these damn things out
>>77038710Boomer sympathizers/apologists should be killed on the spot desu. Like punched and stomped until properly pulped.
>>77038618>curvy women are obeseway to prove his point, you little spicoid fleck of shit
>>77043197Just say you have low standards or you're a sad lonely fatfuck yourself.
>>77039209Jewesses have the most breedable phenotypes imaginable. It's a dangerous fruit
>>77043309
This board is inactive because the glowies successfully made 4chan much shittier and therefore drove people away.
>>77035060maybe because the same shitty threads have been getting spammed for years and honestly outside of /fraud/ I don't think anyone here lifts anymore
>>77047925They're not the exact same threads, they use slightly different coombait OP webms from interchangeable whores on tik tok.Come on now, give the Russian spammers their due.
>>77043212>if you like feminine women with big tits, wide hips and big asses that means you have low standardslook, amigo, I know that you're a dirty brown shitskin retard that's seething because A) you're brown, B) the only women you can get are the purebred aztecian subhumanoids with completely flat, narrow bodies and tiny tits that still drop down to their knees, but you can't say retarded shit like that because someone is gonna hit you up the head and rape that ugly little brown face of yours into a bloody pulp, alright? peace and love, jesus cabron vamos la amaron
>>77048168I like "curvy" women as in a bit of muscle definition, but bodyfat outside the 10-30% range and underweight or obesity are dealbreakers.
>>77037694>he hasn't witnessed breh era>he doesn't memeber high test breadsluark moar newfag
>>77040211>*with just above essential body fat*Soooo still very very lean? Just ever so slightly less lean than you must be to stay alive without deteriorating?
>>77035060I tried having some fun and an autist here immediately put a stop to it >>77050640I was here yesterday and the catalog is 98% all the same threads. It's a dead board.
>>77039638It's because there are autistic vermin creatures who camp in the board and spam report button on any thread where they might feasibly get it deleted. I'm this anon >>77050688
>>77039635I posted a fun thread about macros but I used a cartoon that an autist doesn't like. Fun over, thread deleted. I had no idea things were this bad here.
For those of you that don't know - a new batch of Epstein files was just released yesterday.Moot met with Epstein in NY around 2011.That might have something to do with how 4chan went downhill.
>>77050477>Soooo still very very lean? Just ever so slightly less lean than you must be to stay alive without deteriorating?Not quite "very very lean" but more like 10-15% bodyfat for men and 15-20% for women; going a little bit lower or higher is generally safe, but *many* health problems start creeping in if you maintain anything too far off of those ranges for many years.
>>77035060The e-mail verification shit and new captcha killed the site and it's never recovered
>>77050803>>77050803That's also in the time range when redditors and poopskins started invading 4chan.
>>770350602012 /fit/ was peak2008 /b/, /x/ and /v/ were legendary The 2015-16 election cycle was the beginning of the end. 4chan never recovered and it's been downhill ever since.
I miss randy
>>77049699nigger I remember the brehs threads you fucking faggot and I remember the transition from "high test means fuck everything that moves" to "high test means you fuck fat women"
>>770350601. Janniggers and mods banned any form of self-improvement such as /sig/ and I've even seen them take down /fitlit/ because MUH HECKIN RIGHT-WING NAZIS!2. Fitness culture is fucking cringe nowadays.3. Way too many autistic homosexual/trannoid zoomers who talk shit on everyone that isn't roided to the gills and they're fucking annoying. Not even clever /bantz/. 4. Too many shitskins who fall for the latest grift where instead of GOOD MORNING, SAARS you get generic whitepill advice.>>77035340Retard. Other boards are still alive and kicking with millennials. Taking fitness culture seriously beyond basic lifting is a young man's game.
>>77037513>>77038119>>77038710>>77039635>>77054137These.
