Gyms are for women and gays

>>520989821 (OP)
Made a thread here with my thoughts:

>>>/fit/76812433

Gyms weren't even letting people in without covid masks. When that shit happens they get replaced. Why go to a gym when I can go to any park after hours and do some pull-ups on the bars or some shit

People are too poor and broke to even afford real food, why waste time in the gym when you can't even build muscle if you do go? Be honest OP can you even afford to eat rare steak every day? Can an average person?

>>520989821 (OP)
Gyms were worth it when they were cheap, not so crowded, and effort was made to maintain the equipment. Now you can get an adjustable bench, barbell and 200kgs of weights that will last you 25+ years for the equivalent of six months of membership.

I have a home gym and don't need to be around whore women, black people, and douchebag gymbros.

I'm convinced that gyms are just retarded amerimutt invention, if you want to exercise then go outside lmao, but right amerimutts can't go outside because all they have are highways so they drive to some place where you have a bunch of metal balls in a room and then lift those to get "healthy" then drive back home, fucking lmao, stupidest shit ever

kek I only go to the gym because its the only time I leave the house. Might convert the detached garage into a gym soon though because too many niggers are moving into my town and joining my gym. Niggers smell bad, get ringworm all over the equipment, and don't rack their weights. The only bright side of niggers in the gym is that women stop going kek

The cold hard reality is that building big muscles doesn't increase your lifespan. You should maintain fitness to do everyday tasks like hauling groceries without panting like a fatty. To be fit from a longevity / health standpoint, you probably only need a pair of 10lb dumbbells and that's it. Just do slow reps and keep the intensity up.

99% of the fitness industry is about tricking you into shortening your lifespan in the pursuit of hot bikini bitches that will never, ever date you.

If you're starting out, you don't need anything other than a bench.
I bought a bench with 100lbs for $100, I still have it more than a decade later with an additional 100lbs in plates.
The only thing that seems to have skyrocketed are punching bags. A decade ago I got an 80lbs Everlast bag for $40, now it's more than $100.

Dieting is more important than exercising (though doing both is best).
People simply can't exercise enough to burn off that 1000 calorie "coffee" from Starbucks. People consume way too many calories, and it can't be worked off.

People cutting back on food will be a great thing for this country.

If you had asked the average American a month ago how many people they thought received food stamps, I think the most common answer given would be "a few million". I think it would be the overwhelming majority of answers. I think most Americans were shocked to find out it's 40M, and I think the average American reached the conclusion that too many people receive food stamps.

We might actually see welfare reform in the next 10 years. Maybe it waits until after the 2030 census (when GOP makes gains due to illegals leaving, and possibly not getting counted)

Your calves are almost perfect. You just need a tibia dorsi flexion device to build up the muscles in the front (anterior tibialis and peroneals)
It will also make it damn near impossible to roll your ankle.

I paid just under $600 for a bench/squat rack combo and a 300lb set. That was 6 years ago. I did pay another $120 or so for another pair of plates. That’s $10 a month to lift in my own home whenever I want. As long as you lift for a couple years a home gym is a better investment than even the cheapest planet fatness memberships.

I don't have unrealistic expectations I saw this video from somewhere in Asia where 20 odd cops charge a group and they start swinging back making the cops retreat. Just around 5 guys who were trained.

There's just too many fighting styles out there and gym kinda botches up your movement flexibility and speed so I thought calisthenics would be best to build strength initially and then get into martial arts.

>>520996177
I think about what kind of man would want a lot of kids to begin with, or one that brags on 4chan about his trad lifestyle.
It would be someone super insecure about his low value genes to the point he would be obsessed with having as many offspring as possible to prove that he is “superior” to men who have good enough genetics that a woman would want to breed with him.

>>520996439
if you're starting from zero, which I'm sure you are, it doesn't matter where you start and whether it's weights or calisthenics, what matters is that you do something and don't sit on your skinnyfat ass overthinking it.

Gym tradition is unhealthy we should reasearch and come up with a new system that gives a natural build with peak strength, speed, etc and a society where any guy can fight.

Agreed to everything else you've said.

>>520997283
I use pic related.
You put it up against a wall in front of a chair, then you can put your hands on your knees and work everything to failure for several sets.
And unlike other calf work you can do this at the end of your workouts and still get development.
You can get one for 150.

this is the gayest, most female-coded way of looking at fitness
Fitness is about being fit to feel good about yourself. If you are fit, you feel better. You don't realize it until you start working out regularly, but not exercising makes you feel like shit. Like you're sick with a cold.

Working out feels like getting better after having a fever. That's how much better you feel after exercise. It's really that simple

1) Building muscles without first fixing mobility, flexibility and stability will render you susceptible to injury and severely reduce your range of motion.
2) Isolationary excersises build dysfunctional muscles, unless they are used with caution to specifically fix dysbalances.
3) Every excersise that's worth doing, can be performed in the comfort of your home or in close proximity.
4) The costs of relevant equipment is a small fraction of a gym subscription, and lasts a lifetime.

Paying for gym is paying interest on your health, debtcattle.

>>520989821 (OP)
When I was younger I used to only go to fight gyms and they usually had a weight selection. Now that I'm older and have kids I can't dedicate 20-30 hours a week to training (believe me I tried) so I just go to a crunch fitness now to stay in shape and lift 3 times a week. I still run outside and do calisthenics at home, but it's nice to have a huge variety of weights and a sauna. It's also like $16/month so I don't really mind.
I think there is likely just oversaturation in the gym market, even fight gyms struggle due to it.

>>520991966
>what's callisthenics
If you can't lift and move your own bodyweight, you have absolutely no reason to buy any equipment whatsoever.
You're just making excuses -- you can start excersising anytime, anywhere.

>>520998700
That's true, but some guy pushing iron is going to make MUCH faster gains and be stronger than a pure calisthenics person. Optimally you'd do both.
If home gym is what you want then you can purchase a bench, squat rack, and Olympic set for like $500-600 to keep at home.

The only communities who have access to food in the United Debtcattle Ranches of Muttopia are Amish, Amish-adjacent or trading with Amish. The rest "sustains" itself on nutritional blanks coated in industrial waste, sugars and hormones.

The competitive spirit of men has been redirected into video games. Only the ones with narcissistic traits go the gym, and those that do it to impress women soon realize that 1. It doesnt work because money/status/good chat game is more important, and 2. They are mostly doing it to impress other men, which is gay. Gyms are also too gynocentric these days and it would be easy to end up in some bitches tik tok or whatever for just talking to them or existing in the same space.

>>520996658
>it doesn't matter where you start and whether it's weights or calisthenics
Abysmal advice.
>what matters is that you do something and don't sit on your skinnyfat ass overthinking it.
Good advice.

Before start excersising, get used to moving at all. Building general constitution, discipline and endurance by opting for a bicycle or a walk instead of a car goes a long way.

you can get 260lbs of bumper plates (CAP) from walmart for like 300 dollars too. i use bumpers for everything. they are quieter.

>>520994769

I can confirm that no lifting happened prior to this pic.

>>520996439
As someone who fought on commission for nearly a decade,
Being a super duper roided bodybuilder (which I know you aren't and takes years of hard work) effects it, but reasonable lifting absolutely helps in a fight as long as you aren't concerned about weight classes. If you are fighting competitively then you do need to worry about weight and too much muscle can screw you over there.

>>520998873
>pushing iron is going to make MUCH faster gains and be stronger
That's just building dysbalances. You are excersising to become and stay healthy -- aesthetics and strength are functions of health. Instant gratification is the absolute worst approach to anything remotely related to health.

>>520999961

And that guy will be stronger than you faster, it makes sense to use weights in certain applications and goals. If I'm training to be a sprinter I would need a squat rack and weights to improve. If I'm training to play football I need full range of weights. If I'm training to fight certain weights can shorten my training times and add strength in ways calisthenics can't.

Why would I go to a gym for $100/month and have to wait for equipment to be free and have to worry about catching shit from disgusting Indians, when I can just spend 1k up front to buy equipment that will cover 90% of what I would normally do? It's a no brainer. My buddy also has a gym in his garage that a few of our friends contributed to also in terms of equipment. He has a "open garage policy" among us where we can just drop by whenever and get a work out in for free. Sometimes you work out alone, sometimes you work out with another friend who's there too, it's pretty neat, I just prefer to workout in my own home though, especially in winter.

Going to to an actual gym used to be somewhat tolerable for me until a bunch of Indians arrived, then it became intolerable pretty quickly.

>>521000354
It's oversaturation. There are too many gyms now. For a traditional (box gym?) gym to be successful it must have:
>sub $20 base membership
>good equipment
>enough squat racks (6 minimum)

Good equipment beats the planet fitness problem, amenities of some kind attract people in, low cost beats out the more expensive places like 24 hour fitness

Indians also lack the parallel processing ability to check posting ids and frequently erroneously assume two different posters are the same.
Or maybe this is just them assuming everyone is posting from 15 different phones in a shill farm like them.

Calisthenics is surprisingly effective but boring

>>521000864
Are they heavy weights?
Usually they have weights in the fight gym too. I don't know the situation there, but my experience I had weights in my fight gym and basically did crossfit stuff in order to not get too jacked and maintain more cardio.

>>520989821 (OP)
I like going to the gym the same reason people go to the library to study. It's a specific place to do a specific thing and it keeps you focused and in the zone. Just go at autistic hours like noon and you have the entire place to yourself

I’ve always just worked out from home, unless you’re super into it and doing lifts multiple times your own body weight it’s so much easier to just workout from home.

>>520990258
Kek.

>>521000926
Indians in my experience don't even do anything that bothersome they typically just group like four to a bench and just take turns benching like 95 pounds then they go and do every type of bicep curl known to man and just leave lol

>>521001076

Heavier weights than me. PPL seems to be the main system in use, but with higher reps for the L

You should go to Germany and see how white people live.

>>521000697
You are very conflicted individual. You are upset about my comment on Muttopia, cry about my supposedly stereotypical german arrogance and ignorance...to then tell me about your supposed german ancestry, that you hail from rural America and that I am a jeet.

I don't know what you mean to communicate. If you live rural, you should know about the absurd differences in food quality in the USA. Why do you think every American food corporation produces two kinds of product: one for domestic use and one for export? You have the most lax and nonsensical regulation on earth, literally. What's classified as food in America often cannot even be legally produced outside of it, because it's nothing but proprietary additives stacked ontop of industrial waste (chief among them HFGS, seed oils and so on).

>>521000354
>It's basically mandatory to lift and looksmax if you are a zoomer.
Meanwhile all the zoomettes are getting dicked down by older millennial dadbods. You retards are trying to looksmaxx but are too timid to ever actually approach or hit on girls.

You realize that Europe has much of the same stuff in their food but isn't required to list it due to an approved substance list that circumvents them listing it right?
The main difference is corn syrup, which is actually a big difference.
Anyways, you're inability to track conversations and spastic personal attacks makes me think you're a jeet.

>>521001027
You've never glanced at a reply and responded in kind? Regardless: you join unrelated chain to vent your butthurt, reframe the argument of someone else, get told to fuck off and ... continue being a nuisance? Did I hurt you so badly?

The retarded personal trainer/wellness/mealprepr/class dependent gyms are going to collapse when shit gets hard. Cheap rooms where men go to lift will continue to thrive.

>>521002044
>You realize that Europe has much of the same stuff in their food
"Much of the same" is a huge stretch, even though lobbyists are 24/7 trying to get goo approved.
>but isn't required to list it due to an approved substance list that circumvents them listing it right?
It's actually worse, European merchant have long since started circumventing the listing requirements by branding their goo. Instead of, for example, "Milk" you'll see "Mílk" -- which is itself goo containing myriad additives, that, if listed individually, would scare off even the most careless cattle.
>Anyways, you're inability to track conversations
That's petty and asking to get bullied.
>spastic personal attacks
Personal attacks? Quote me.
>makes me think you're a jeet.
Ever since I've learned that poos do in fact use their own ethnicity as insults, while stale and overused, these quips make me laugh.

Gyms are going out of.business because they dont have the guts to ban all forms of recording and cameras, you know, how all gyms used to be 15 years ago.
So, as a result, men stopped going, because the last thing anyone wants, os for some retard influencer wannabe to ruin you just to make "content"

>>520989821 (OP)
I joined a gym for the same reason I joined the military: I needed external discipline until I could get my shit together. It’s hard enough just forcing myself to walk a couple miles these days. In a gym, I felt I should at least do gym stuff as long as I was there. 10 years of military service didn’t fix me either. I’ve always been pretty good at self discipline when called for. It’s just that in my 20’s I needed someone else to take the reins for a bit.

>ENTIRE FUCKING THREAD
And no one has aptly mentioned the mid-2010s gym fad for the past decade where every gym became full of women, influencers, social media retards, zoomers,
Broccoli haired cunts watching Sam sulek, Zoomers flossing everywhere going “WHAT ARE THOSE?!!!” Whore sluts in spandex who for 10 years straight cried rape because men were looking at their asses in leggings
I think every single person here is underage

You catch that purple gym the right time it’s only $5 a month.

>>521002925
Even with cameras banned women still ruin gyms just by being there

>>521002925
No, the gym fad craze for normies and retards is finally fading after a decade
They were the new night clubs for a while where women would spend an hour getting their makeup done and putting on their tightest leggings to go get oggled at the gym and post photos to instagram

>>521002925
How would that "ruin" you?

>>520989821 (OP)
no pussy = no gym
I enjoy lifting at home and running outside. But lots of men just go to the gym to be attractive. But the self improvement scam died because most men realized that you can't lift to become taller or grow a hairline. So now only enthusiasts go to the gym. That and whores looking for ripped chad's dick.

>>521003164
So this, in your mind, wouldn't qualify as "personal attack" by your own standards >>520999887? It's in response to me making fun of country renowned for its perpetual proxy war, usury and sophistry, and that is feeding its people mystery goo.

While we're at it: do you want to pass on a list of naughty words you can't handle?

Gyms are going out because there's a million fucking gyms in every western city

>>520998012
unless lifting is your hobby, you can be much healthier with calisthenics and moderate cardio

All skyrise condo buildings have gyms inside for their residents and the maintenance for these gyms are built in the condo fees

I can't afford groceries

When I was 18 a friend invited me to work out with him at this local gym. I showed up and met him and was about to go to the weights when the lady at the front stopped me and told me thats not how it worked, and that I had to get their marketing speech from the owner before I could go back there, who then came out and proceeded to tell me why their gym was great and how I should join and pay a monthly fee to use their shitty equipment. Total waste of my time and felt like I was being sold a scam.

And it is a scam, because a bench and some free weights for your garage and simply running outside is all you need to stay fit unless you are a professional athlete, at which point you’ll have you’ll have your own private gym anyways

Gyms are both in oversupply and too expensive at the same time. There just aren't enough chucklefucks ready to pay hundreds of dollars to a gym subscription for every gym in town that they don't use in the current year. Gyms of course react by raising their prices and try to appeal elite.

I don't want someone using a machine next to me.

Based bodyweight enjoyer. It's really better in every possible way;
>No fees
>No equipment
>Can do it anywhere

The only thing I'd consider paying for is yoga and that's more so I can be in a room with a bunch of fit crystal-gazing women than the exercise.

All these vanity meme industries that experienced an explosion during and after covid are just having a normal correction period.

>>521005706
The most common gym equipment I see roadside is “For Sale”. That shit takes up space, sees little use after a month or two. Your best investment is time with a friend willing to walk a couple of miles a day.

I built a gym in my house during covid because that's when we completed our formation into a low trust society and I no longer wanted to be around people. Add to the fact apparently women now complain at getting leered at at the gym just confirms my assumptions. I am a member of a boxing gym, though, but it's a real one.

>>520989821 (OP)
Used to gym nonstop mostly boxing and competed realized I’m paying for slop craft own routine here anons do this you’ll get right.


Round 1: 5-7 sets of
25 pushups
5-8 pull-ups
8-10 dips
300 jump ropes
(You can allow rest in between sets if needed)

Round 2 (4 rounds)
Land mine squats 10 reps
Single arm dumbbell dead lift 4 reps


Round 3(4 sets of)
30 lateral raises
30 front raises
Standing military press as many as possible


This is your workout days the other days are boxing days which should be bag work, sparring, weighted shadow boxing, movement drills, jump ropes, explosive exercises.

Thank me later

It makes zero sense to set foot in a gym unless you're a rootless lumpenproletariat urbanite. Buying the essentials for a home gym costs like 3-4 years of gym membership but they last you until old age.

>>520989821 (OP)
They are expensive and people nowadays arent into fitness.

Yes, Heidelberg is nice, but the average German city is not.
That's like saying every city in the US is Hanover NH

This is the closest gym to me. I haven't been before but want to start going as soon as my arm heals from a strain I got moving.
Do these tend to be good? I read about frustrations with their contract memberships but I have a membership that works for several gyms through my health insurance so that won't be an issue
