Is getting good at video games truly pointless?
>>720751575probably depends on the gamethe top players of competitive games always seem like miserable people
Extremely. Getting a million bucks for being the best in the world at Street Fighter 6 seems worth it, but impossible.
>>720751575yes. but its up to you to prove that life is about having a point
>>720751818thats because the top players never had to work for it
>>720751575>steroid addictionkek the FDA DEBOUNKED this in the 90s right in Joe Biden's face during the hearings.
>>720752037its just reddit ragebait
Who here #nattygang maybe I should’ve taken roids bros
>>720751575"pointless" is an non-pointy insult better used by passive aggressive women
>>720751575absolutely BITCH MADE post, imagine being filtered by the most noob friendly and accessible physical activity next to running.
>>720751575Is getting good at anything truly pointless if you can't make a million bucks per year off it? Why learn calculus if you're not gonna make 120k starting? Why do anything at all if it's all pointless? You're gonna die, might as well shoot up heroin and snort coke. Yolo brah frfrMoreover, if you had the million from your talent, then what? You're rich. You have your house. You can buy pretty women. You might even find a waifu? Then what? Say you made a billion bucks. Then what? You buy more and more and more, you sponsor your dream vidya, then what? Start a podcast empire, then what? You can't take the money with you when you croak. You can't take it into the next life. St. Peter won't look at you and go "ZAMN, YOU WERE RICH IN LIFE, YOU'RE HELLA RICH NOW"Say you could afford to live sitting on your ass, playing vidya or watching netflix or doomscrolling tiktok. Then what? You can't do that forever. Welcome to basic bitch existentialism, can I take your order?
>>720752197I started lifting 6 months ago natty and it's been a complete waste of time, if you're not doing roids you don't get anywhere.
>>720752785its full of gatekeepers too, they hate any form of competition
>>720752785You can if you protein, milk and creatine max. Steroids just cut the time to get there
>Never exercised>Still alive>Zyzz>Has been dead for more than a decade And that's why exercising is a meme.
>>720752197Im natty and Im loving where Im at. I could always be bigger but admiring my body in the mirror with the post workout pump.
>>720753025Because he had a heart attack from gear
>>720752785I started calisthenics and boxing about 7 months ago and I've made huge improvements. I look completely different too, much stronger. Maybe you're doing it wrong.
>>720752916cute
>>720753086Me too, but I want to BE Jotaro, but I can’t ever get there without gear. Curse my dysmorphia
>>720752785If you're skinny and not eating at a surplus with plenty of calories you won't see any progress past a few weeks
>/fit/ has a completely fucked perspective because they all blast roids or they are /r9k/ demoralization posters>normalfag sites also have fucked perspectives because they abuse roids+lighting+pump+photoshop
>>720753346Lighting really is your friend when it comes to taking pics
>get sick of being kv>hit the gym hard for years>parents and siblings tell me I look great>dad says he's really proud of my progress>still kv and the only one in the family who isn't marriedMaybe I'm just ugly.
>>720753272>I want to BE JotaroThat's a cartoon. You might as well be a furry considering surgery to look more like a cat boy. Don't do it.
>>720753410I personally think being ripped and ugly is better than being dyel and attractive
>>720753409it really is, also having a decent pump. I get way more of an ego boost with the softer morning light when I mire myself in the mirror compared to the evening when I have the lights on.
>>720753410Yes
>>720753517I have a nice mirror, and my room is generally dark, but some sunlight peeks through my window that when angled right, the shadows and indentations of my muscles just pops so fucking hard. I pose like a tard for a solid five minutes a day when changing my clothes because of this
>>720753338Nah it's genetics. I've been working out for years and I don't see shit, my strength also plateaued at the same level it was in 8 months.Tried everything, high intensity, high volume, buffering, bulking only made me fatter and strength was still the same mediocre beginner shit. Some of us are just genetically weak.
>>720752785>I'm a skinnyfat bitch who only ate cheetos and played videogames all my life, why can't I undo 20 years of damage in 6 months?
>>720753779Funny how you don’t mention anything about eating, tell us about that anon
>>720753669lol I do this too. Kinda fucks with my head just how insane the difference is in my physique. Makes you wonder how many people dont look nearly as good outside of staged pics they upload.
Reminder that if you’re under 175lbs, you are victim weight
Does anyone else go to the gym after work? I told my little brother I go to the gym after work and he looked at me like I was from another planet. I have this internet friend who also works out first thing in the morning. Is working out after work so rare? I always feel reenergized after going to the gym after work. Normally I’d come home from work and immediately crash in my bed but if I go to the gym on the way home I feel all refreshed and have energy to actually do things like play videogames
>>720754043fuck working out after a 10 hour shift I work out in the morning after chugging some coffee
>>720752197You work out for its own sake, not because you want to “look good”. That only matters if you’re a professional wrestler or a gay porn actor
>>720752306Axel is that you?
>>720753410nah you're probably just autistic, looks dont matter if you're a sperg. i have had women blatantly flirt/hit on me and i just kind of shut down or try to get away as fast as possible
>>720754043Working out after a shift is horrible. Not only i feel sleepy and tired but also groggy and grumpy. I think that just happens when you age having less energy and whatnot
How much protein do I need to eat daily? I just bought a bunch of protein bars I think they have like 16g of protein each, if I eat one after working out will that be enough?
>>720754097>>720754258Maybe it’s because my job involves sitting on my ass a lot. My body gets frustrated so a workout after work revitalizes it. To each their own I guess. It helps me stay awake on the drive home so I’ll just stick to it
>>720753410>dad tells me a bunch of stories about at least ten women he hooked up with before he met my mom>grandparents tell me I look exactly him when he was young>meanwhile I’m invisible to women
>>720754361you should get 50g of protein within 30 minutes of finishing a sessionjust get protein powder. it's delicious!
>all these people who want to get heavierWish I had your problems.
Do I really have to roid and diet and live in the gym if I don't really wanna look like a huge roidmonkey? I just want something normal like this.
>>720754361Whatever your body weight is at the end of the day Sugars, protein and electrolytes after a workout helps with the recovery
Gyms gross me out. I'd rather exercise at home.
>>720754651>normal >>720754694If I had the living space for an indoor gym, I would’ve sunken my money for one. I want an integrated lat pull down/row machine and those are huge
>>720752785>>720753814you can actually, the human body is very adaptable and even if you trained for decades and then had an injury and ended up in the hospital your muscles wither away so quickly
>>720751575Only multiplayer slop
>>720752785>6 monthslollmaoYou're still in beginner phase
>>720752785Fucking bullshit dude, you're either going 1/week or just being a weak faggot about the whole thing. I could believe a swimmer yoger saying this because they don't get ripped or shredded, but free weights give visual results in a few weeks and if you've been at it for half a year you have accomplished something. Look at an old picture of yourself.
I havent hit the gym in ages but I do cardio and some light weightlifting with my adjustable dumbbells>5x60 pushups (daily)>5x50 crunches (daily)>2-3 10km runs (weekly)and then every day I alternate one of these>20x5 dumbbell curls (45lbs)>20x5 goblet squats (50lbs)>20x5 dumbbell OHP (40lbs)I wish I had a bigger chest but I dont think I can ever get a bench setup in my shitty little apartment
Why do people turn physical activity into a second job with diet, routine, goals and schedule?
>>720754043I have an office job and I do the same thing. Really helps clear my head.
>>720754043HIIT right after waking up, before breakfastWeights instead of a lunch breakHuge dinner
>steroid addictionwe just throwing addiction on top of anything now
>>720754651this is not normal, this is post photoshop + roiding physique
>>720753127what's your cal routine? I moved out and no longer have weights.
>>720754990You just need heavier weights, and dips too. Pec flies are super good too if you use them at the gym>>720754998It costs to be sexy as fuck gang
>>720754651look up sean connery weight lifting and look at him and some of the other lifters. that's the natty limit. it still looks great.
>>720754790I should get some equipment, because I hate gyms here in slavland. They're always filled with roid cliques, retarded zoomers hogging the machines blasting their niggerap, or underworld criminals in the ''fancy'' gyms.
>>720755075that's literally a dad bod, attainable after 2 months of semi diligent weight training and eating enough protein. stop with this defeatist nonsense
>>720755184>that's dad bodno its notthat is a hollywood actor who blasts roids and has a financial incentive to look as good as possible.
>>720755180They’re expensive, like a 40lbs dumbbell is like $50. Everything after Covid inflated the prices of gym equipment unfortunately
I have severe ET physique. I can barely do 5 rep on just barbell. I’m 35 btw. What should I do.
>>720751575>gym feesNigga just buy some equipment for your office. Feels good working out whenever I feel like it.
So is the consensus that the natty limit is peak female attractiveness? There was this whole entire movement of>hmm well akshualy womin HATE muscly body builder bros!but literally all I ever see is women talking about how mega bodybuilders like cbum or whatever his name is just have a "dad bod"
>>720755184>dad bod KEK
>>720755184That's not dad bod, this is dad bod.
>>720755450I don’t want to look good for women, I want to look good for me, and femboys
>>720751575What is it with the anti-gym jewish-like detractors on all boards? It's not like people going to the gym will start a violent revolution of strong men, calm the fuck down already kikes.
>>720755450most of the couples i see the guy is skinnyfat or just fat. most men aren't fit by any means whatsoever. even being somewhat fit will make you better than 80% of men on the dating marketplace.
>>720755620You cant fix the tism thoever
>>720754361Moar is betterEating your bodyweight of protein is hardThere's also no timer after workingout for optimal protein ingestion, just eat more within your targeted calories
>>720754694I've got both a garage gym and a pass at a high end gym. "Going to the gym" just gets my mind in the right place. The garage is just for blowing off steam. When I'm freestyling in the garage I always end up wanting to do something that I don't have.>>720754990All that light work+cardio is canabalizing your calories. 300 push ups? 250 crunches? You'd be best to switch it up if you don't want to add weights. Add inclined bicycle kicks, leg lifts, squats, inverted push ups, some other kinds of compound movements. You're overworking your abs and triceps and leaving everything else untouched.
Fit legit freak me out. They're insane. They're in there openly discussing their steroid addiction like its completely normal thing to do. They used to be the nomralfags. Literally the only board that didn't hate women and now they hate everyone including themselves.
>>720755826/fit/ stopped being good around 2015It’s just /r9k/lite at this point
>>720755826>the only board that didn't hate womenBullshit, /fit/ has been the most misogynistic board since its inception. They hate women so much they want to fuck each other.
>>720755826/fit/ was always gay and neurotic man.
>>720755804I forgot to include in my post but the pushups are all the decline variation. Im pretty sure those hit my chest better than regular pushups since I can feel it in my pecs better.
>>720755972You have to be at least 18 to post here.
>chicken>rice>broccoli Let me guess, you need more
>>720755117It's called a gym membership faggot.>b-but Stop being an antisocial freak and get a gym membership.
>>720755173This? This is the peak? Imagine putting in all that effort lifting and dieting and this is all you have to show for it. Better off not even bothering.
>>720755826this -> >>720755878also roiding became WAYYYY more commonplace. If you say you hit 1/2/3/4 on /fit/ faggots would still call you dyel because they hit that in highschool (they didnt)
>>720755878>It’s just /r9k/lite at this pointIsn't that literally every board?
>>720751575Holy ham cope
>>720756084Anything beyond this is either posturing narcissism or an attempt to attract homosexuals.
>>720756035They do but 300 reps of any one movement isn't a good idea
>>720756084looks great and healthy, and is attainable for any man without roids.
>>720756084I look like this but bigger chest and a four pack
>>720756226Im /retardmaxxing/ and in my retarded mind doing high volume low intensity work will get me that same kind of natty jacked aesthetic 3rd worlders occasionally got going on
>>720756023Not as bad as it is now. It was one of my favorite boards before 2021, 2021 being the year that s 0 y jak spam began, and probably feds and other foreign maliscious groups sought to bascially destroy this place. I left that place in probably about that year, and I haven't gone back many times just because I'd rather not see it's raped outcome. I remember the humor threads there being the most hilarious thing on the website, next to /pol/, before that board became defined purely by it's corrosive elements.
>>720755710>You cant fix the tism thoeversuch is lifebut what can you do to offset it as best you can?
>>720756192Or women. Women were all salivating over >>720754651, yes women claim they don't like roiders but they mean stuff like picrel where it starts to look grotesque.
>>720756336That guy's videos contain legitimate wisdom. What he says also seems so obvious, yet, I never really applied it.
>>720756580you're legitimately delusional if you think women don't find the natty limit attractive.
This is Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. 50 years old. 100% natty. What is your excuse?
>>720756168that pew survey 2 years ago said 66% percent of men aren't fucking, it's going to get worse
>>720756084this is peakhe looks like a marble statue ffs
>>720756850Dubious
>>720756928Bro those arms look like twigs and he has like zero pecs. I'm bigger than him and I don't even lift.
>>720756850nvm it was 63% are single
>80F outsideGod help me
>>720757365depressing that there's a majority of men who think like this while being fat fucks.
>>720756084That looks aesthetic as fuck though. Much better than the inflated synthetic look of steroids.
>>720756084Any more than that and you're only going to impress fellow homosexuals.
