OYS 13 Stats 32, married 4, 2 year old child. Weight 206lbs. Read NMMNG, WISNIFG, SGM, WOTSM, MMSLP, unplugged alpha, the way of men. Lifts/training Lifting x 4 Martial arts x 2 Stopped the bodybuilding routine and I've started doing a modified version of madcow 5x5. I've reduced the Squats and will only be doing them once (twice max) a week - not worth the risk it poses for my already compromised spine. Will do other Lifts as accessories so I still get a bit more of a workout in when lifting. C…

It's her friends kids birthday party and it's good few hours of driving too. I'm not thrilled about the social side - but not going to something I don't want to go to is more of a challenge for me. I'm used to just saying yes and going anyway.

Lifts and Cardio: 4x a week: weighted (+4kgs) pull ups and weighted (+4kgs) leg raises, dumbbell (14 kgs) OHP, BP, squat and bicep curls 8 sets each until exhaustion; 1x a week: run 7km How much are you lifting? Is that 14kgs for everything? Mate honestly - stop cheating yourself and lift some proper weights and feedback here what you're ACTUALLY lifting.

The only real focus I have right now is to stop eating garbage food, continue to lift 3x per week, add in cardio 2-3 times per week, go deeper in the side bar and STFU. The rest will come later. Best place to start

I was surprised when she said "you know I love you the way you are". I was surprised because impressing her is genuinely not a reason I have for considering a new haircut, and that it is truly self-improvement for me to increase my style and personality. This sounds like an attempt to stop you improving yourself too.

I feel like I am already physically attractive, though Skinny dad bods aren't attractive. Do you mean you have a pretty face? Not the same. 1.80 mts. 68 kilos. 20% body You would be 55kg with 0 fat. 61kg roughly with 10% body fat. I assumed your Lifts were in kg.... but I'm starting to think they're lbs now. You've started lifting - good. Just keep it up now. You're definitely skinny fat. How many calories are you eating and what is your macro split like?

Just read the dancing monkey article and the one about the guy who essentially had his whole OYS journey as one big covert contract. Man if I'm being honest, I am 100% dancing monkey. I don't know how to disconnect the two yet. I am definitely still outcome dependent and use sex as a gauge.

I didn't lift with any plan that day. Just wanted to get in and do something instead of "resting". I did rows with some dumbells around 30kg each. Plate loaded machine rows of like 100kg for 10 reps. I don't follow a plan- I've lifted weights for ages so just go in and lift for the muscle group I'm working on. So I'll do PPL - but just make sure I hit the compounds and do some accessory and arm work.

Yeah, I usually try and keep Squats at 220lbs and try not to go higher because its usually not worth the risk to go higher and go for an ego lift a PB. Trap bar is also a safer way to deadlift, so utilising that more. But regularly using the leg press which let's me get 660lb + so I still get to move some heavy weight with my legs. Also found walking lunges are a nice way to cook my legs. So my aim is to focus more on hypertrophy training as opposed to big 1RMs. Rows wise, struggle with bent ove…

Ok cool - I'll switch the calories and macros up. Average steps is about 5'000 daily, but can easily up that by walking the dog. Also use an exercise bike for an hour about 3 x a week and do about 20km a time on that. Pull ups- yeah not a chance of getting more than 2-3 max. Pushups I can whack out 40-50 in the first set then 20-30 after. Thanks dude, appreciate the guidance.

5'10. Macros, 140p , 200c, 67f When ever I've used the macro calculators on bodybuilding.com etc - they put my calories in the region of 1900-2100 to lose weight . I have lost weight eating 3000 calories a day and slowly tailored that down on to about 1700 in weekly increments- but that was when gyms were open - I was gaining strength and losing fat, 5 days a week, 2 leg days. I was eating 5-6 meals a day and having my macros adjusted on a weekly basis and then carb cycling for the final 4 weeks…

I cant blame any diet/lifestyle for my lack of results. My issue is that I haven't stuck with anything long term. I don't make it a part of who I am. I've always viewed it as a "temporary diet" to lose weight. While I've been doing IF - I have stuck to 2000 calories or lower (with the exception of that week where I did jack shit). I honestly have a pretty comprehensive understanding of everything I need to do to lose weight, spent lots of time researching but not really putting it into action. W…

Started at 230lbs, I was wrong about my weight on OYS1. assumed I was 220 instead of weighing myself. But agreed. Could have lost 20lbs in 10weeks.

Nah I don't believe that only schmucks and pussies get their wife flowers. I knew that my intentions behind doing it would have been wrong. I would have been operating from the same frame as those schmucks doing it because they're supposed to. I chose not to, to challenge that side of myself so that I'm giving in less to that side looking for approval.

Yeah good point. Sex doesn't mean attraction necessarily does it. Cool - feel free to give me shit tomorrow on my OYS when I talk about how I fucked up my diet and training last week, I deserve it. But agreed, i remember being 194lbs a year or so ago and I still had too much fat around my chest and stomach.

So, when I did OYS 1 - I assumed I was 220lbs. I was actually a little over 230lbs when I actually weighed myself. I've lost 10lbs since I started through calorie counting, cardio and IF. I can lose more faster, but trying to keep it sustainable long term - habit changing as opposed to crash dieting like I've done in the past. Height, 5'10.

This is solid advice. Was in a similar boat as OP when I was in college with an ex girlfriend. At your core, you're a bitch and there's part of you that wants to save her. You won't. You're a pussy and she knows it. Funnily enough - she'll be fine without you. You won't be though, because "after all I went through for her.....". Have some fucking self respect. Lift and sidebar. And when she comes back to fuck you when she's seen your gains - tell her to go fuck herself.

Fucking hell - yep, true. Honestly thinking about it now, the only reason I've been able to "stick" to diets for any period of time, is because deep down I've known its temporary. Also definitely not the only place in my life where this is the case, but I've never put the 2 together.

I lost 37lbs last year and put it back on. Done a 3 month "shred" bodybuilding diet. But as soon as it was over - as I didn't have a plan anymore, just went back to my old habits. So I can do it - just need to fix my mindset and keep it off. Rest of my life , was doing BJJ until the lockdown came back. Career, need some direction in this area but still figuring stuff out with that.

I blew a disk in my lower back trying to deadlift through the lower back pain. Keep on with the physio and dont destroy your spine trying to ego lift. Trap bar deadlifts are cool because they take a bit of the pressure off.
