Thread 76550397

A few months ago I was in the middle of a year-long stretch of disgusting inconsistency in the gym, and I also just so happened to be getting hit on by a pretty attractive girl. Seeing that my self-confidence was at an all-time low, I decided to try to get with her just by simply talking her up instead of playing the muscle card like how I used to a couple of years back, and it somehow worked.

FFW to us getting to know each other alone, she started to run her hands under my shirt and comment that my muscles were really nice, which almost gave me a fucking stroke considering that I had been inconsistent for almost an entire year at this point and was built like a malnourished horse. It fucked me up for a week or so. Combine this with the fact that also in the midst of this slump I got told I have a "Toji build" by a friend of mine and the scales in my head started to get wonky.

I see so many people on this board post lusty ass images like they're manifesting the type of girl they want when they get the body they've desired for so long, meanwhile the type of body that you could get by only about one year of progress in the gym (starting skinny, admittedly) is probably enough for most people to consider you a walking demigod.

God, I need to get off of this board.

true. we don't wanna read your cringe inducing social media tier reddit spacing personal blog garbage here

This happens for you because of completely random genetic lottery (face, height, etc) and it has nothing to do with your fitness, your muscles, or anything you said or did, and you didn't actually do anything to earn it.

Feel sorry for all the zoomers, who have to compete with Instagram and TikTok,

>>76550533
So you got a fat girl and that is inspiring?

>only about one year of progress in the gym (starting skinny, admittedly) is probably enough for most people to consider you a walking demigod.
Basically happened to me but lucky with looks too. Not even skinny.

>>76550620
Going from obese to a normal weight in just a year, while staying consistent in the gym, made me look like a demigod to my female coworkers, even though 99% in this board would call me dyle

>>76550444
and there it is

>God, I need to get off of this board.
Wrong! STOP! You need to STAY!

If it wasn't for /fit/'s high demands on what qualifies merely as a good fizeek, two things would happen:
1) The world would get uglier
2) You would never have come to appreciate that a good fizeek here, is god tier to normgroids

What is your point? You're a bodybuilder, ofc you are mentally ill and pretty fucking gay about it.

>>76550444
Why does he have to earn it? Its his birthright.

woah!

Well yeah if it's influencing or distorting your own body image it's no good. I can read threads 24/7 and it doesn't change a thing about me.

Did you smash her though? I hope so.

>I can read threads 24/7 and it doesn't change a thing about me.
that's not true, no one is immune to the influence around them

Also grats on the success

Yeah no shit your shit gets skewed. Average person is either a fat fuck or a skinnyfat fuck

>>76550397 (OP)
I know what you mean. It's not like you do it intentionally, come here to obsess over bodies like a faggot. It's just that in actually going to the gym and browsing this place, your availability heuristic of what a muscular person looks like shifts. Even if you specifically try to prevent that from happening. I don't want to be a delusional /fit/fag and think that way but I still sometimes get surprised when somebody says or implies that I'm very muscular.
Bummer this isnt going to be a thread about that, though. I guess everybody had to blow off some steam and get their little jab in

>>76553589
wtf is this mlp? gr15, dude

>>76553630
Futurama, I think.
Idk i just watch old cartoons to collect chan images while I'm bored. I call it VLC photography

What's to discuss? Yes, what you consume becomes are part of you. If you want to shape your mind then shape your environment like OP said
>God, I need to get off of this board.
If this board was just about achieving the bare minimum to be consider better than average then it would be boring. It would be just like r/fitness, a forum of full people struggling to achieve a 1pl8 bench being lead by people who are struggling to reach a 2pl8 bench retreading the same ground over and over again.

>>76553630
Here's a good /fit/ one, now that I think of it.

>>76553630
>>76553654
It's from the Futurama episode "Cold Warriors". It's from season 6, and the screenshot is from the last scene with Fry and his dad on the frozen lake. His dad gives him a beer to warm up and says he's tough on Fry because he wants him to grow up strong, something kids these days could use A LOT more of.

>>76553721
>a beer to warm up
I kek every tiem

>>76553654
watching old cartoons is probably a way to avoid living your life for real but the "VLC photography" concept is cool i have to respect that. nice pics

>>76550533
holy fucking normalfag

>>76554418
Yes, and? So what if I am a normalfag? At least I have a wife that even after 4 kids still has a fine body

>>76550397 (OP)
Well, here's the constant same actual red pill that has been posted again and again over the years, but I suppose I'll do the same.

You don't need to be a broccoli Hercules with a jawline to cut bread with to attract women. To attract women - you merely need to do one simple thing. Attract women.

Crazy, right? Well, turns out it's just an activity, and not some golden medal at the end of your journey of gains. How to do this? There's a thousand ways, but one big common factor in all of them:

INTERFACE WITH WOMEN.
That's it. Clearly OP has achieved this and has no issues with attracting women since they're already hitting on him.

The issue is that your self-esteem issues about your body has been formed by the most autistic, women-fearing, bro-science, greek statues COMPLETELY shut off from the other gender and rolling their boulders up their mountains, complaining that no women ever gives them a shot. But their ideas about how this would happen is alien and outlandish. They don't understand how to partake in the mating rituals. They literally count their rate of outward manual breathing while sitting next to a woman on the bus.

Don't accept being mogged by the giant, rippling, snazzed paradise bird who gave up on the mating dance before even trying. Learn from the people actually pulling chicks.

It's more often socially competent people than the people freaking out about seed oils on 4chan. If you combine your body with not being a spaz - you're unstoppable.

>>76554970
>INTERFACE WITH WOMEN
I do that a bunch and I still don't manage to attract any. I'm not handsome but I'm not ugly, I'm shy but I'm not a sperg and I can hold conversations and be entertaining, I dress decently etc.
Everyone seems to find my company pleasant enough, but there's something about me that prevents chicks from finding me attractive and I can't put my finger on it

>>76554997
Keep at it. It sucks but you become better at doing it, and sooner or later you happen to find someone who finds you decent.

A tip that really helped myself is to NOT actively try to seduce them, and just be relaxed, open and warm. "Unbothered" if I were to give it one word. At least until you have a connection.

>>76555012
I'm afraid my issue is the opposite in that I'm not seductive enough, I probably come off as distant and unapproaciable even though that's not at all my intention. Being more "open and warm" is probably something I should work on

So true anon. Ppl think this is fit irl. I will never forgive you for being so mean to me, fit

>>76555192
Put the fork down Mr landwhalel.

>>76555192
You are brown, fat and short
Thats what being fit looks like in india?

>>76555247
>>76555279
My point exactly you need so little to be considered big, fit is just a bunch of faggots trying to put each other down baka my head icl ur pmo alr

>>76555155
> I probably come off as distant and unapproaciable
Yeah, the "mysterious loner" isn't as attractive to women as media would have you believe. Women are attracted to "fun" guys, as in guys that make them feel happy and excited. Most of the "ways to get women" stem from this.
>Be rich
You have the resources to take her on "adventures" to other cities or nice restaurants
>Be fit
Signals that you're active and social, that's why women go for the athletic look moreso than a super muscular build: they want a guy who excels at team sports
>Dress and groom well
Shows you care how your appearance affects others. Like fitness, "too much" is a bad thing.

If you want women to flock to you, you have to be actually comfortable around them. Unfortunately, this is very difficult to learn and impossible to fake.
