How can some people actually have the confidence to go to gyms while being completely DYEL or even fat? I'd feel embarrassed if I showed up to a gym without any muscles at all or if I had been fat. I've been working out at home for some time and I think I'm starting to reach a point where I can actually frequent a gym without feeling ashamed of being weak. How do fat people manage?
>>77046731You're a retard, no one at the gym cares about you. I'd rather see a fat guy and a dyel at the gym over McDonald's. We can all make it
>>77046731Simple, I don't particularly give a shit about other people or what they may think.
>>77046731Biology
>How do fat people manage?They don't. The grand majority of fat people you see at a gym quit after 3 months.
>>77046731No one noticed or cared I was in the gym until about a year in and my first interaction with a person was when someone randomly complimented me after a squat that I was strong
Every gym in the world always has at least one very fat person working out in it at any given time. Anybody who is jacked has been in the gym enough to have seen 100s to 1000s of fat people there. It's as common as seeing fat people at Walmart. So why would anyone care?
>>77046731There’s a bright and shiny wonderful new world waiting for you if you would just let go of what you believe other people’s opinions are about you.
>>77046788No it's way less common than seeing fat people at Walmart. But not a rarity
>>77046731Weak faggot that is why you are dyel. You go to the gym and sniff hot bitches and start lifting.
>>77046731Nobody started fit retard. You have to start working out at some point. Even people that played sports in school had to start going to the weight room at some point
>>77046731Most people at commercial gyms are DYEL. Nobody pays attention to you, trust and believe. You're not the main character, especially if you're DYEL
>>77046731They don't feel the others are watching them. Imagine that. Your whole existence is different than theirs.
that's why you take steroids before going to the gym
>>77046731WTFdid this complete DYEL loser just come into OUR /fit/ and make a post???WHAT THE FUCKAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHWE'RE ALL LAUGHING AT YOU AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA
>>77047181yeah ok buddy
I’m weak and fat struggling to lift 30lb dbs for ohpIt’s kinda embarrassing but whatever gotta keep trying
>>77047187*epic facepalm*God you are so weak LMAOI better not see you at the local planet fitness. I will give you a swirly
>>77046822No, you don't get it. To get into university you need a undergrad degree, to hit the gym you need to be a seasoned roidtranny, to take MMA classes you need to be a proven cage fighter, and so on
>>77046731Depends on the country but here in the US it's pretty tough. I showed up as a DYEL at a regular golds gym and got raped pretty hard my first day there.Decided to persist with it since I was watching Goggins at the time and after getting raped by every regular for 3 months I think they decided I "passed" and after that it was relatively smooth sailing
>>77047265this. it's a brutal black pill but that's just how things work. when I needed to lose 100 lb I tried to hire a dietician but nobody would take me before I proved I can lose 120lb
>>77046731>posting on /fit while being unfitughh moodsssss
You guys who say "no one cares about you no one's paying attention to you", you don't get it. It's not about others judging you. It's about you being there and judging yourself, seeing and thinking about how pathetically weak you are compared to everyone else. >dude everyone starts somewhere>dude people are not paying attention to you, stop being narcissisticIt doesn't matter
>>77046731Because not everyone is a neurotic self-pitying narcissist like you.
>>77048567those feelings eventually go away as you train more and become bigger and stronger (or slimmer if you are a fat ass) or they don't go away and you settle into a kind of positive feedback loop of body dysmorphia where you keep thinking you look like shit so you train more and become more obsessed with the gym and hopefully it doesn't become out of control and become a major problem like you see in badly written PSAs
>>77046731>why come to the library if you haven’t read all the books there?This is how retarded you sound
>>77048567It is about others. You just gave them internalized and depend on their gaze. Those crying about others looking at them want to be seen
>>77046731Do you remember anybody that you saw last time you went to the grocery store? Do you think you can be too sick to go to the hospital? What the fuck are you talking about? People say you should get on meds or go to therapy or whatever, but even just talking to chatgpt about whatever stick you have up your ass might mean you don't have to worry about it anymore.
>>77046731>How can some people actually have the confidence to go to gyms while being completely DYEL or even fat?When I was a DYEL skinny fatter, I went every day consistently at the same time so I ended up getting to know the regulars and more importantly the trainers who worked at that time.Each one of then knew I was a newbie and had a twinkle in their eye. Almost like they remember their first time fondly and missed being fresh, nervous, and at the start of their journey.They were also some of the most helpful people in terms of advice.
>>77048567>judging yourself, seeing and thinking about how pathetically weak you are compared to everyone elsethere's your problem. stop doing that.
>>77046739This. We go to the gym to better ourselves. Muscles, fatloss, improving cardio... It doesn't matter why you are there. Being in the gym is more important than lifting 2PL, running 2k, or working your forearms.
>>77046731You just go, and lift to get strong.
>>77046731>Why would people use a place of self improvement if they clearly need self improvement R u fkn retarted m8e
>>77046731you feel nervous the first time you go, but you go anyway and then you realize no one gives a shit about you, everyone is working on their own thing, and some of them are in worse shape than you are>>77048567>It's not about others judging you. It's about you being there and judging yourself, seeing and thinking about how pathetically weak you are compared to everyone else.stop coping, just because it's self-conscious doesn't mean it's not externally motivated. if i put you in a gym full of holograms of people doing their regular gym things instead of real people, we both know your fears would immediately disappear. you're afraid of being judged as weak by the tribe because it reduces you on the social ladder, and your self-perceived position on the social ladder is very important to you. it's called embarrassment. that's why grabbing your nuts, going to the gym anyway, and realizing no one there cares about you is so freeing
>>77046731The first time I went to the gym I failed to bench press the bar alone. It doesn't get any worse than that and I was fine. Nobody cares.
>>77047959>hasn't put on solid size or strength in months"So what you are going to want to do is hit full body twice throughout the week and start on a 3x5 or even hear me out a 5x5 program utilizing progressive overload and add 500 calories a day of 60/30/10 carbs/protein/fat to bulk and 500 calories to cut."
Fatties at the gym are based. Yes most of them give up within a few months but the ones who stick around are giga-based.>>77047265>>77047952You niggas are joking but this is how it actually works in real life.Businesses won't hire you unless you have experiences and you can't get experiences unless someone hires you. Women won't date you if you're a virgin and you can't lose your virginity if women won't date you.>>77047187Keep going fatty. I started my db ohp with 10 lbs and now I've finally reached 30 lbs for 10 reps. Next week I'm going to upgrade to 35 lbs.>>77048567There are people stronger than me at the gym and there are people weaker than me. There's always a bigger fish. Your only competition should be you from yesterday.
I just fucking went I guess. doing OHP my second day with just the 2.5lb plates while some guy is doing like a plate and a half next to me fucking sucks. earbuds (the kind that seal your ear a bit and suppress noise) and some breakcore kinda helps me ignore everything else going on at the gym and focus on myself a bit more
>>77046731sick people should be embarrassed to go to the hospital
>>77054243This guy reads the sticky
If you actually commit to making progress you will see so many people who were stronger than you just spin their wheels as you pass them in strength. Closing the gap and going beyond that feels great.
>>77046731No one cares about you. No one. Everyone is focused on their workout, they aren’t watching you, or even care you exist. You know, like your mom.
>>77046731Most people don't even register the fact that you exist. Nobody cares. Stop being a fag.
Um e don't judge here sweaty
>>77056339Yup, half of the people would let you die under the bar, because they are so zoned out and focused on themselves.
>>77046739I care. Fat people disgust me. I hate seeing them at the gym. I respect that they're working on it, but I still look at them with disgust. I am also fat and disgusting.
