Solid post. At the beginning of 2017 I switched to PHUL instead of 531 and enjoying it so far. My weak point is also thighs/butt, does the stair stepper actually work? I do HIIT running twice a week but that doesn't seem to be doing the trick.

Very true. Crushing a new PR at 6:30 in the morning while everybody is sleeping makes little problems throughout the day seem trivial. Almost gives you an automatic amused mastery attitude when dealing with all the weak fucks out there.

I started 5x5 after dropping about 60 pounds from doing an obscene amount of running. Unfortunately I also lost a lot of muscle and have never lifted before so I started at the bar and continued slowly. Deloaded many times and finished just below the 2/3/4 plate standard due to plateauing across a few lifts. I originally dropped weight from 250 to 190, and 5x5 brought me back up to 210 (I'm 6"1). I added pull ups and barbell curls, and dips and skullcrushers as assistance exercises on the days t…

I'm on Android, the app I used is called Wendler log 531 pro on the play store. It's simple but does the job.

That's pretty impressive for 6 months of 5x5. Looks like the DL is your weak spot. Once you start plateauing repeatedly look into programs like 531 and the like for more powerlifting, or phul/phat for a bodybuilding mix. I'm no expert but that's what I've been doing and seeing solid results.

It's fun, got a good variety of exercises. I did 5x5 for about a year and a half, then 531 for a year, and just started phul at the start of 2017. Not sure where your training is at but I wouldn't personally recommend switching off 5x5 unless you've hit at the traditional 2/3/4 plates for bench/squat/DL (or close to it).

Fucking exactly this. You make time for lifting because you must, there's no choice in the matter, no excuses. I hit the gym at 6 am with the old ladies on the cardio machines. It's not easy and its not ideal but you do the best you can with the time you've got. This morning it was freezing rain and I woke up with a bit of a cold. I walked the 10 minutes to the gym and was the only guy lifting. Fuck the weather, I can't miss Lower Power day (doing phul).

Yep InDesign is fine, I work in 3d vfx and am more on the after effects/premiere/Photoshop side of things but I've got the whole suite available. The thing with the infographic is that it looks good and legible but can lead to cringe moments. We have a "board of shame" at my office where they post up embarrassing resumes or unsolicited emails. At least two of them had a pretty useless infographic that we were laughing at. For example, some guy put his Nuke proficiency at 50℅ which is idiotic to …

Great job, that resume looks awesome. I'm not entirely sold on the infographic as I've heard some negative opinions about it when listing software competencies (as in it "boxes" you in) but the design looks terrific. I'd love to get a template copy of that as well to play around with. I'm on the lookout for a new job soon and brushing up all my documents.

Interesting technique you got there, running is definitely a mental game as much as a physical. You clearly know your shit, thanks for the tips! I run a decent distance (12-16km) once a week and HIIT once a week as well and already incorporate most of your tips. Not sure I could lose the music though, it's one of my main motivators to keep going or give a speed boost.

Straining while running can also lead to wierd tension and pulled muscles later on. I used to fuck up my shoulder or neck while running until I started getting really aware of my form while actively running. It helps to do a mental check every 10 minutes or so and loosen up, especially if you're running for longer than 10km or so.

If you're 6"5 and athletic your nose isn't the problem unless it's atrocious and even then I'd be skeptical. By your own admission you have girls opening you on social media and you fuck it up. Work on your game, sounds like your looks aren't the issue.

Deadlifts and face pulls. I had dreadful posture from years of sitting at a desk in am office and slouching on the couch at home. Nothing really helped until I started doing higher rep deadlift sets (225 for 5x10). Add face pulls during your assistance exercises as a bonus.

About the mental aspect... It can be difficult to recover from. I've been fat pretty much my whole life and dropped about 70 pounds a few years ago. I still have issues with taking pictures or my shirt off. The stretch marks don't help either. I did it by running a shitload and eating way less than I should without calorie counting. Don't recommend it as I have somewhat of an issue with food now and find myself forcing food down when I actually DO need it and am hungry. Good luck losing the rest…

Nice to see another early morning lifter! I wake up at 530 every morning to lift before work and everyone thinks I'm nuts. Its not easy but I've been doing it so long that I refuse to miss a single day. I don't care if I'm hungover or didn't get enough sleep, I'm gonna drag my ass to the gym and do what I can. The satisfaction of crushing a new PR while people are hitting the snooze button is unbeatable.

Not only would those idiots get a lower paycheck by working less hours, they also payed out to miss those hours. Unless it's a special event/emergency, I can't fathom the logic of that much net loss for a few hours of free time.

Fucking this! I run a decent amount on the weekend (about 15km) and still get pretty winded doing 5x10 deadlifts as per the Wendler 531 BBB program. I find that kind of volume really improves your posture too.

Planned off days suck. I always end up getting antsy and going for a run. As a former fat guy it's hard to take a break because you're fully aware of what happens when you get too comfortable.

Kits are really dumbing down the process for you though. I can see why you'd do it as a 15 year old, but most people should just go full mash. It's a more time consuming and pricey endeavour but you're going to get the actual full experience. Do a little research and talk to the store guy, they're a great resource and most love to help out newbies.

Brewing your own beer is a great manly hobby. I do it with a group of close friends and its a great excuse to hang out all day and have some dude-only time. It's really not terribly hard and you can get some great results fairly quickly if you're patient and smart. Also makes a fun gift or something to bring to a party or the office on a Friday.

Hmm I've always read that numbing lube is a no-no as you could be doing damage without realizing it. I tried this cooling lube once but it just made my dick really cold and I couldn't get off. The issue now is that the wife likes fingers in there while having regular sex but not my dick... says my dick feels too "hot" when I try. She has mentioned that her orgasm feels "different" and "better" when I fuck her while fingering her ass so I must be doing something right. Any ideas? Just more patien…

Yeah I think I read that somewhere and didn't want to accept it. I'll try and keep shredding, it's gotta come off sometime. Either that or thicken my lats up so it's not as noticeable.

Thanks for the detailed and thought out reply! I'm already eating at a deficit but if I'm being honest I haven't been making sure I get enough protein every single day. It sucks to have solid definition on my upper body and still have love handles. My abs are blurry but there but the lower back fat is just incredibly persistent. I've got to track my micros better.

Good job. TRP and "how to win friends and influence people" also got me through some tough interviews. I'm in a very competitive field and used to get constantly brushed off and looked over, unable to find a job. Post-trp I lost some weight, dressed better and rocked the interviews and landed a solid gig. It cannot be understated how useful the information here is for getting ahead in your career. Read the book I mentioned as well, it'll help with your new school too. Best of luck.

Thanks for the detailed reply, your numbers are pretty impressive! I started doing face pulls recently to help with posture (they help a lot) and already do inclined bench at 135 for 3x10. I've heard a lot of positives about pyramids/reverses but haven't found an entire program with them included which can be confusing to fit into an existing schedule like 531. I'll take a look at those arnold presses, and should probably do more dumbbell work and take care of my diet better.

How low do you need your body fat to go though? I'm currently at 15%ish body fat and have love handles that just won't go away. Been working out for about 3 years and lost a lot of weight. Currently 6"1 and 210 pounds. Even at my lowest bf which I estimated around 10% there was STILL a remnant of the love handles. Nowadays it seems like the moment I eat something it goes STRAIGHT there. I follow a wendler 531 program and do hiit cardio on the rest days to keep lean. My biceps and forearms have v…

I've been lifting for about 3 years now and lost over 70 pounds. STILL cannot fully get rid of those love handles. I think it's mostly genetics coupled with a sub par diet (working on it...). Even with having veins popping on my biceps and forearms and 15%ish body fat, it's a persistent fat deposit I just can't shake. I've read that inclined sprints (hiit) are good for tightening up the midsection, will be trying that out. Hope it works out better for you.

Yeah I haven't worn anything with a logo or image in years, just solid basic color tees and tanks. Once you go into the higher end you have much better quality fabric but not necessarily logos and stuff. I personally can't stand being a walking billboard, all I wear is cheap h&m, American apparel and Frank & oak stuff. Just good fitting basics.

I wear the organic stretch cotton v-necks from h&m daily. They're about 10$ each, last a decent while, and come in basic colors. Not the best quality but they do look good if you've been hitting the gym.

Shorts with a 9" inseam (or end at the top of the kneecap) are a perfect fit, especially when you're in shape. They're super comfortable and lightweight and they look good. It's crazy how much better 9" inseam shorts make you look than those shitty baggy cargos everybody still wears. If you do any squats or deadlifts your quads will show nicely.

That's the irony when trp or other manosphere sources tell you to be a selfish lover and who cares if she comes. Because when you're letting loose and treating her like a ragdoll, your passion shines through and she gets off on that regardless. Took me a while to realise that no special maneuvering is needed, just do what comes natural but really give it your all. SGM is a great source on this too. I suppose this thread is helpful to those that are still new and feel awkward having sex.

Get over it. Just like how no one girl is a special snowflake then nor are you. I lost 70+ pounds after being fat my whole life.

Through approaching and flirting endlessly. What I meant by natural game is just being the best and most charming version of yourself and honest in your intentions. Easier said than done sure but you're still very young and I know when I was that age I had laughably zero game.

Goddamn Red Wings boots were the best purchase I've ever made. They were way out of my budget at the time and the most I've ever spent on shoes. That being said, they're incredibly comfortable, and give me a little boost to height and posture due to their shape. I've got the Iron Rangers, highly recommended.

My wife once had a dream that I was cheating on her and woke up angry and confused. When I asked her what's up and she told me her dream, I chuckled and asked "was she hot?" That didn't help and she was sullen for a few days but at least I got a good laugh at her nonsense. Also I suppose that's some healthy dread as well.
/r/TheRedPill02/06/16 11:43 PM

Yep that's exactly it. Passive dread causing her hamster to spin in your favor. Ideally this would have her working on her own appearance as well, and if it doesn't you're in a great place to next.

This is passive dread and working well enough that she's articulating it. My wife says the same shit every few weeks or whenever we go out and she's having trouble choosing clothes. I used to be a tubby fuck but have been lifting for a few years and getting pretty built. Keep up the good work and don't be afraid to tease her when this inevitably comes up again. She should reciprocate by keeping her appearance up as well.

Most of the women in the army there are glorified secretaries and eye candy for the higher ups.

Doing stronglifts for a while now, probably way too long. Deloaded on all lifts already and doing 3x5 for all of them except deadlifts which is always 1x5. I know I should change programs but haven't found something that I can do in an hour as that's all the time I have before work.

Love that hobgoblin slogan! Wychwood makes some great beers. Your point about bars vs pubs is very interesting. I've never had the pleasure of sitting in a proper English pub and the way you describe them is very warm and inviting, far from even the quietest neighborhood pubs I've frequented.

Awesome video, great points. I also love running and lost about 65 pounds from it a while back. Wish it was nicer out where I live so I can run outside, nowadays I do HIIT on the treadmill on my off lifting days.

Great call on lifting before work. I wake up at 5:30 AM every weekday to make it to the gym opening at 6 and am either the only guy or one of a handful working out. I've been doing it for about a year, and its such a great boost to my day. It sets your frame for the day right at the onset. When something comes up at work, I just flashback to my morning lifts and know that nothing can fuck up my shit. Nothing can rattle you if you just crushed a new PR while everyone else was sleeping. Everyone a…

Nice write-up man, thanks from this lurker who's really plateauing recently on stronglifts and looking for the next step.

Good call on the off days cardio. I did the same thing and dropped about 65 pounds, then added about 15 of muscle, currently at about 210 at 6" 1 right now. Only tip I can give you is not to drop too much weight before really lifting heavy.

Excellent post man, really hits home, especially the bit about just looking decent. Since starting to lift heavy I've been hitting my goals but am constantly disappointed in the results. I know it takes time and that at this point I'm likely to be the biggest guy in most rooms I step in. Coming here though, dudes give the impression that you have to be the Chadliest Chad 100% of the time to get shit done. This freezes me when I try to do anything and I anxiously hamster it into "oh I can do that…

Oh man, Hatebreed's lyrics are ridiculously RP. My personal favorites are Facing What Consumes You and In Ashes They Shall Reap. Great tracks to lift to.

I was reading The Manipulated Man the other day and the author goes into this topic quite a bit. Men scientists and engineers are constantly trying to improve and streamline household chores in order to "free" women of it and make them "happy" (since they always complain). They invented fancy appliances and machines to appease women who are generally the users of such devices but this all backfired as they always just find more shit to bitch about. Great book, short and definitely worth a read.

Nice! I started in back in March and go every second day and mix in hiit cardio on off days. Stayed on the progression and warmups according to the app, and add dips, skullcrushers and planks to workout A, and pull ups, barbell curls and shrugs to workout B. I've deloaded a bunch on most lifts but not once on deadlift. I recently had to switch to 3x5 on all lifts due to a new work schedule since I have way less time now though.

I'm actually squatting 225 next 5x5 workout too, how long have you been at it? I've seen the 2/3/4 plates standard around and it seems attainable but hard work. I'm almost there on bench (185) and I just deadlifted 315x5 and was so proud of the 3 plates, looking forward to adding that 4th!

I'd start with both, but definitely a lot of cardio at first. I'm pretty similar in that I was around 260 lb and dropped down to about 185 before starting to really lift heavy and am now at 210. I wish I didn't cut that deep though, looking back at pics of when I was 185, I really looked too skinny. I'm 6"1 for reference. Depending on your height I'd recommend you start lifting heavy sooner than hitting 180. Look into programs like c25k to get started running and build endurance, then HIIT and t…

Yeah, figured as much. I've lost weight and am getting muscular but can't seem to shake those pockets of fat off. I really have to start watching what I eat and drink. Mostly drink. Thanks!

Can you elaborate on the exercises that got rid of the lower back fat well for you? That's my last pocket of fat that I just can't seem to get rid of and it really bothers me and fucks with my aesthetics.

Thanks for your input! You're completely right as to why I'm exhausted with SL as all my lifts are pretty much at their maxes for the moment. I've heard some mixed opinions about ICF, and since I'm already doing accessory work with SL its probably best to go straight for PHUL or 5/3/1, thanks for the calculator link! One of the things I love about SL is the app. It calculates your warmups and keeps track of everything really neatly, pings you when its time for the next set, etc.. Do you know of …

I've been doing Stronglifts for about 4 months now and am getting pretty tired of it, and it takes me forever at the gym. Looking to start a new program and was interested in ICF or PHUL. I'm 30, 6'1, and 210 pounds with still some fat around the back midsection I just can't shake off. Current weights for main lifts: SQ 215, OHP 115, DL 300, BP 165, BB 180. What would you recommend for building a bit more size and get definition? I'm already doing plenty of running to lean down.

Fuck that sounds delicious. I've got some leftover burgers I'm gonna fry up with some eggs. Not skinny but can always use the protein!

Oh come on. I'm 6'1 at 210 after having dropped about 60 pounds over the past few years, then packing on about 15 pounds of muscle. I still have a bit of a spare tire but I'm working on it. At 6'2 215 just do some cardio to drop the flab and start weightlifting, you're not very far from a good weight for your height.

Becoming obsessed is absolutely right. It has to be a part of your routine to the point where nothing stands in your way. I go to the gym every morning before work at 6am, no excuses. I go to bed thinking of tomorrow's workout. I see so many people half-assing it and they're just kidding themselves wasting their time and potential.

Stronglifts 5x5 isn't an aesthetics program, its strength based. Depending on the intensity you'll still get reasonable results though. I've been doing it for a while now and am seeing great results but I also add lots of assistance exercises, running and rowing.

I notice myself pulling down on the bar or feel like I'm trying to bend it as the squats become difficult towards the end of the session. It is somewhat inadvertent and I thought it was bad form. Glad to see its mentioned here as an option. I've been doing mixed grip but still occasionally slip on the later reps with DL, will look into liquid chalk. Thanks for the tips!

Book of Pook has several chapters on "Womanese" similar to this. Just finished reading it last week, worth a look if you've never read it.

I too used to think that and even was happy of that "fact". Like "who am I trying to impress?" Ugh. Turned it around and am in the best shape of my life and continuing to improve. Fuck that shit.

Yeah you get the temporary sickness at first, feel sluggish and all that but once you break through that you're golden. As for how to get started, there's lots of info on the keto subreddit that I can't link here but I'd recommend checking out if interested. As far as what to eat, high protein, high fat, low/no carb is pretty much all you need to know. Lots of meat, nuts, eggs and cheese.

If you're looking for how to get started, look up Stronglifts and keto. Been working great for me so far.

I've recently been taking BCAA's at the gym on lifting days as I typically work out at 6am or so before work. I got a large sample for free and since taking it I find that I get less DOMS. Not sure if I'd go out and pay for more though. I'm also getting tired of Stronglifts and looked into ICF but read some mixed reviews of it. I'm currently about halfway between Novice and Intermediate level on all SS lifts according to strength standards and have been doing SS for about 4 months. How are you l…

Read Sex God Method by Daniel Rose. Seriously. It directly tackles all these questions. Acting like IDGAF is good and all, but sometimes you need to just go caveman. Staring her down is a good start, but that book has so many more strategies. Highly recommended.

Right on man, well written post. Today was SQ/OHP/DL day (doing 5x5) and I was in the gym resting between some rough Squat sets when I read this. It was the kick in the ass I needed.

I've got the Iron Man and Captain America UA compression shirts as well and completely agree. Those shirts are super flattering too. Considering picking up many more of them to constantly wear at the gym.

Great job remaining calm while he was getting your hair all messed up with beer. I'm wondering what you did after going back to your seat though. Did you go to the bathroom to fix your hair or just sit there and hope for the best? I'm asking since I've recently grown out my hair and am rather self conscious of how it looks (working on suppressing that). Its hard to give off a IDGAF attitude when you seem too focused on your appearance.

Speaking of the "flags" you mentioned throughout the post - I really appreciated that. Made it very clear what were positive/negative qualities right off the bat.

It only stings because you're seeing it as a negative quality.

I've also been hearing the "you're selfish" comments a lot from my wife since I started seriously lifting and into RP. I used to try using the oxygen mask analogy while smirking to defuse the situation to unsuccessful results. I've since decided don't need to explain myself and just shrug it off when it comes up.

Good going on quitting smoking using e-cigs and willpower. I haven't smoked or even thought of smoking in over a year thanks to vaping, which in turn led to more energy and massive weight loss at the gym. Vuse is probably on the lower and "un-satisfying" end of the e-cig spectrum, but if it works for you then great! Everyone is giving great suggestions with protein and supplements, but I'll just re-iterate that whey protein is where it's at. I actually just started doing Stronglifts 5x5 and taki…

First time my wife came over to my place, she said the same thing. Can't remember what I said but the jist is I shrugged it off and ended up getting a long BJ. She later on told me that she lied but "felt like making me work for it". I'm currently working on really instilling RP... but AWALT man, AWALT.
