I'm afraid to start lifting and notice that my body is NOT changing. Even after several months of training

:/

Are you Indian? If not it will change. Stop talking about it and just do it

Are your lifts going up? If your weights aren’t going up quickly you’re not making any progress, especially as a beginner. Add 100 lbs to your bench and you’ll notice a change. >>76468382

What does that have to do with anything?

genetics

It has to do with everything

fat nips + shitty routine

Fat nips are a sign of low T + being Indian is low T itself (the average Polish women has better grip strength than Jeet saars)

Why do they refuse to eat and train? What's the point of being lean if you don't have a base? These fuckers would look better if they were 90kg and half of that gain was fat (then at least they could cut back to something).

both of these guys have same amount of muscle if not more than vinnie hacker.
the problem is that they are indians with shit aestethics.

the actual amount of lean muscle you need for female gaze and to be gazed by around 10mil followers on social media is very easily achievable even with the worst genetics. you just need to cut and be white and have nice hair.

shit diet. that's it. also not posing properly.

And let me guess the rest is all garbage and oily indian slop

He is 5'5 does he even need more?

You can't fail if you don't try. ;)

>>76468377 (OP)
yeah man better to just stay a skinnyfat dyel for life so you don't ever have to find out if you're Indian

>>76468377 (OP)
>100g protein and running 3x a wk
also probably lifting like an absolute lazy pussy

>>76468377 (OP)
A skinnyfat indian on a retarded plant-based diet is possibly the worst example you could use.

Eat lots of meat and eggs and you'll make gains.

It helps if you don't have tiny Jeet balls.
Still, keep at it - you'll look better if you do something rather than nothing.

Posts like this makes me so happy and motivating of my progress.

I have pepperoni nipples, is it over for me?

>>76468402

>>76471316
You need to work harder to see progress but it's not over unless you're pepperoni nips + a Jeet

Nah thank god im white and 6 feet tall

You can find out how to lift once you've already done it you piece of shit fuck you

I tried lifting a couple of years ago. Sticked to it for a couple of months, and my motivations went down the hill because there was no visible change and couldn't lift much heavier than when I started.
And I started really fucking low since I'm a no muscle skelly.

>>76473762
What kind of routine were you following?

>>76468377 (OP)
>Do powrshitting
>Wonder why you look like a powershitter
Many such cases!

>>76473764
I don't remember, something like deadlift and a couple of things on day 1, squat and some other exercises on day 2, bench and some more exercises on day 3, twice a week with sunday off. Never had any gain, never progressed even though I started with kindergarten weights.
Maybe I'm not cut out for it.

>>76473762
I also started out as a skelly. I made countless attempts to lift and get big. Whenever I didn't see any changes after about 6 months, I gave up again. Finally, I decided that I would stick with it no matter what, and after nine months I saw the first changes, after about 12 months the first people noticed something, and after 15 to 18 months of consistent training I no longer looked completely dyel, and after about two years I was finally out of dyel territory. I've been at it for 7 years now, and in recent years I've only been doing maintenance work, which has been very easy. Of course, you can always achieve faster results with a stricter (bulking) diet or a stricter training, but overall, you have to remember that it's usually a slow process and that consistency is the key. Don't be discouraged by slow results, because if you do everything right, the gains will come. FYI: when I started, I barely weighed 140lbs at 6'0. Keep in mind that even after gaining 20 lbs of LBM with a similar bf% I still only weighed 160lbs. That was a big improvement and I looked much better, but of course I was still skinny and it took a few more years to reach 190lbs. My point is, if you need to gain that much muscle mass, it will simply take a very long time.

Eh I just think you have to strike a good balance between technical exercises like the ones you mentioned (in which you can see your technique progress on a nearly daily basis), mindless machines (easy gains) and most of all lifts you love (don't like barbell benching? Try it with a swiss bar/dumbbells/do dips instead, just find something you really really enjoy doing)

>>76473891
btw I'm not saying this is in any way easy, you still have to give each lift a solid shot for at least one month but if you tried out all deadlift-like lifts (for examples) for one month each you'd still go to the gym for a solid 6 months at least
>trap bar
>sumo (if gay)
>conventional
>jefferson
>RDL
>rack pulls
etc
and it depends on how far you want to get from the basic deadlift, same for any other lift. It's a pain but it is kinda fun

>>76473891
>mindless machines (easy gains)
Such as?
>all lifts you love
Honestly, I don't like lifting at all. It's a chore to me. I guess being a bit relunctant does no good for my motivation.
>>76473819
Thanks for the answer, anon. Good to know the mediocre plateau doesn't last forever.
>it's usually a slow process and that consistency is the key
I agree, and that's the hard part.
I'm going to order a bench and some adjustable bumbbells.
Sad thing is I'm ~132 lbs, 5'8 and 39 years old. Fuck.

What's the body building genetic ranking?

>>76473938
> I don't like lifting at all. It's a chore to me
I suggest you find another physical activity, then, or find a way to incorporate a lifting regimen into a physical activity you like. I’ve met many guys who are in the gym only out of obligation; they usually waste their time there.
> I'm ~132 lbs, 5'8 and 39 years old.
Not a big deal imo. Being 39 means, yes, you will make gains more slowly than an 18yo, but people seriously underestimate the body’s ability to gain muscle/lose fat. The most important thing is to not throw weight around like an idiot chasing numbers: getting injured will seriously slow down your timeline of gains. Your weight is irrelevant, go by the mirror. Being 5’8” is an advantage in resistance training unless you have disproportionately long legs.

>>76468377 (OP)
You have to chase strength+endurance, eat plenty of good carbs and fat and cut out all sugar and alcohol
I would guess he needs a bit less protein, and to get it from meat and dairy, not whatever shit he's eating as well as needing WAYYY more fat in his diet

Changing your body is a hormone game so you need a bunch of fat to let your body make more testosterone (from cholesterol)
If he got his dead/squat/bench up to respectable levels while also doing whatever retarded shit he's doing 5x a week, he might actually have improved his body

>>76473762
I have the opposite thing. I get easily pleased with even small gains. I started from skinnyfat and always push my sets to failure so I grow. My biggest issue is not eating enough and those annoying 2 week minor injuries

>>76474038
>I suggest you find another physical activity, then, or find a way to incorporate a lifting regimen into a physical activity you like
Sadly, there is no other way to incorporate this. The only sports I practice are fencing and badminton.

>only 100g of protein

That guy must be lying about something. Either not consistent enough or just not enough stimulus. Him not becoming not leaner makes me think so. At this point just cut for better life quality if you struggle to put on muscle mass so much.

This thread again. OP are you unironically a pajeet with a humiliation kink?

>>76473762
Are you lifting until absolute failure and eating a lot or are you just fucking around?
