What's the minimum bench legally required to wear one of these in public?
>>
>>77238299
4pl8
>>
if you're sub 190 lbs then 3pl8
otherwise if you're 190+ lbs and reasonably fit go for it

anything else people are just going to think you're a cringe small man trying to look tuff
>>
>>77238299
1pl8 skullcrusher
1pl8 curl
for reps
>>
>>77238299

You just need some muscle definition. If you have big fat arms but bench 3 plates then no one is impressed. If you have a bicep vein and at least a bit of size but only bench 185 more women will be impressed.

I say the same thing every tank top thread.
You will be ready, on the day and not before, you stop having the thought "am I allowed to wear a tank top?"
Tank top is a state of mind. Asking if you can is the antithesis of the tank top mindset.

Call him fat but fat dudes with muscle look tough in those shirts
You guys with your fatphobia just aren't tuned into reality
There's a 300 lb nonlifter at my job who is just built strong and everyone acts like he's a demigod. IRL people are way more impressed by size than leanness

Anyone else feel ridiculous wearing these?
I was walking home from the gym with a joocy pump the other day and some guy drove past me in a van and jokingly shouted "Look at the fucking arms on that cunt".

Like yeah I do wear them to show of the gains because I'm proud of all the hard work I put into my body, but it also comes across as a bit douchebaggish.
>>
>>77239146
Wow what a clever response. About what I expected. You're a valued and worthwhile presence here.

>>77239153
Yeah. I realized I have shit delt insertions and look better in a t shirt anyways so that solved that problem.
>>
>>77239145
Black guys always wear tank tops anyways
>>
>>77239153
Yes, it does feel ridiculous. Even a reasonably-fitting t-shirt feels weird now. My traps push it up too much and reveal more arm than I’m comfortable with. Because I work construction everyone has to get a word in about it. Sometimes it’s really gay.
>>
>>77238299
You must be able to bench your top since sleeveless shirts are inherently homosexual

Imagine being such an insecure sissy that you're need to come up with rules to wear a tank top in public.
>>
>>77239153
I like to show off my guns because women are more sexually attracted to me when they can see them. That's it, that's the entire reason. Fucking proud of hard work LMAO it's like being proud you jerked off for 3 straight hours one time what a retarded thing to be proud of. Learn woodworking and make a cabinet or something then you can show off something worthwhile that someone else might find useful. lifting is all just vanity and I show it off out of vanity. Delusional to pretend otherwise.

What's the deal with these dudes pretending lifting weights for years consistently and eating well is not hard or disciplined?
I'm not saying I'm fucking Grizzly Adams or anything. But if it was that easy everyone would be walking around jacked.

Garden variety nonlifting demoralizer pieces of shit, most likely. Ask any of them to ever post physique and see what happens.

>What's the deal with these dudes pretending lifting weights for years consistently and eating well is not hard or disciplined?
the only objective measure of difficulty is the proportion of people who attempt to do something and fail versus succeed, so by that metric looking good - or at least looking the way that you want to - is quite difficult.

however, a person's subjective experience of difficulty can vary. if you absolutely love going to the gym then it's easier to do it. i go to the gym 5 days a week and these days i enjoy it mostly, but for a long time i fucking hated going to the gym and it always annoyed me hearing people talk about how 'hard' it is when it's clearly something that they love to do.

basically people want credit for the hard work that they do, which is fair, but just because something is hard that doesn't mean it's a challenge in a meaningful or personal way that forces you to grow. a lot of gymbros want you to believe that gym has some moral/virtuous/spiritual element to it, and it can, but the simple act of going to the gym and putting in hard work isn't it.

i could use a forklift and lift a lot more weight than i do in the gym, and forklifts cost money and i worked hard for that money too. morally, they're equivalent. in principle, bragging about gym attendance is the same as bragging about forklift ownership.

difference exists only where gym is a place where you confront the self and grow as a person instead of just a body - eating disorders, dysmorphia, rehabilitation, whatever. and i think everyone experiences this to some extent, but this happens in places other than gym too. some people get more out of it than others, and for some people it's harder and more challenging work.

2 options.

Bench 3 plates

Or drink enough to think you can bench 3 plates

Then you're ready.
>>
>>77238299
It doesnt matter because you'll never put in the work. If you really wanted it, you'd already be lifting and not worried about some arbitrary timeline.
If someone does tell you a timeframe you find acceptable, you'll go the gym then quit in a few months when you see no progress and then go back to making "how to achieve" threads with a pic of Gooky the anime character waiting for someone to "redpill" you on how to get jacked without doing anything. loser

:/ I'm actually overweight for my height...
Being overweight + summer temps + humidity leads to tanktops and shorts being the most comfortable option.

do you have to shave your pits for this

I have that upper "yes i go to anime convention how would you know?" arm hair and on my shoulders, i shaved it and it looks 10 times better. pits not sure? if your hair is literally poking out with your arms down, probably

If you're a woman, sure.

>>77238299
doesn't matter whatsoever
people here saying you need to be benching a certain amount of plates to wear this are obese powersharters that would look hideous in a tanktop
just be lean and don't be a complete twig
>>
>>77241386
>the guy with abs
the guy who finds any excuse to pull off his shirt is usually seen as cringe and tryharding, to the point it undercuts being hot by outlining insecurity

Easy to wear
Doesn't stick to skin


Perfect gymwear

Literally stop wearing these degenerate clothings. Wear a black t or a white t without logos and lift hard. Tank tops are for literal faggots and trannies. Modest masculine men don’t want to show their body for vanity. Repent
