Old men can get ripped if they really want to

Cookies78 · 2017-12-28T21:04:29+00:00

(I'm not claiming I'm ripped - skinnyfat, yes. Just that old fat men CAN get ripped - need to work on it first - just lost fat and muscle yet) Me age 48 and age 52 (right, thank god). I went from 88 kg to 65. From fat faded fuckface ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uDI5nXKi7e8) slob without a shred of fashion sense to a slim, sensible human being, able to do lots of pullups, pushups etc. (you gotta believe me, gents :-) I lost a quarter of my body weight and I'm even slimmer and much more muscular now than the pic on the right, which is is nearly a year old. Since then I worked HARD to put on some muscle and get rid of the "skinny fat" look. If a lazy old halfwit with health issues can do it, you can too!

Someone said I was karma-whoring and not a real MGTOW because posting here anything else but "I hate whimminz" seems to be not in the spirit of things here but I'm trying to get everyone to post stuff about their accomplishments, goals, projects and activities, for mutual inspiration and advancement! I like the MGTOW sub but please show us some parts of yaall's life, give me some ideas, like how to start with fishing, I want to know, it all looks so complicated, millions of gadgets and rods, what stuff to buy for muddy lakes, from the shore? Fly fishing seems interesting. Let's start posting more motivational stuff for MEN. Yours truly: https://imgur.com/a/gAh2R

I'd be so nice if r/MGTOW would be a place where men get together to get inspired instead of bitching about chicks 24/7.

Good job buddy. Hope you keep at it.

Good job, you look 15 years younger in that second pic.

SorryAssCuck · 2017-12-29T06:52:10+00:00

Is he the St. Blackops2cel of the MGTOWs?

Bestoftherest222 · 2017-12-29T00:50:56+00:00

Good for you brother but now we need to talk about dressing like an adult. Not a gay adult, not a beta adult and not a 18 year old adult but an adult. Since we're dudes you just need NO crotch killing tight jeans, matching belts/shoes (color/Fabic) and a proper fitting polo or short sleve button up.

I can't stress enough how proud I am of you for taking back control, looking better and extending quality of life but ffs man don't dress like you are in this picture. To me it screams all the wrong things.

He looks like a child pedo after the weight loss. Weight loss = harmless look

christianlazard · 2017-12-28T21:36:13+00:00

Awesome, bro! And you achieved all of this just by lifting your phone? How many reps?

2017-12-29T03:25:05+00:00

I mean he's doing ok but he's a fuckin long way from ripped

Impressive! Keep it up.

I'm so on this Jan 1.

Time to stop fucking around. I wont be 45 and in shitty shape.

danielg123789 · 2017-12-29T00:03:41+00:00

Good job man. Back when i was a teen i was working this shitty job, anyway i worked with this guy who was like 65-70 and damn he was a machine. He was ripped he would go to the gym everyday before work, and even when he got to work he didn't slow down, i had trouble keeping up with him, i mean i was 16 at the time so i was kinda lazy at that age. But it just goes to show that men at any age are capable of getting ripped if they want it.

You look great. Enjoy the fruits of your effort. Thanks for the Inspiration.

I COME FROM FRANCE

2017-12-29T02:41:24+00:00

Awesome dude. You ain't doing this impress cunts, you're doing this to improve your fitness and health into the old age. Yeah, I would know because I don't want to get really bad health with extremely high blood pressure, etc. I know some guys who died before they hit 50, heart attack is the main one. Congratulations, man, keep it up. Kind of sucks to eat healthy food instead the food you love.

nunhgrader · 2017-12-29T04:11:49+00:00

Congrats and keep up the hard work!

One thousand upvotes to this

fcb98292 · 2017-12-29T05:16:36+00:00

I just don't have the two hours per day to make this happen.

realChebz · 2017-12-29T05:18:53+00:00

wow looking awesome. Now you can finally find that special girl to settle down with.

I am just kidding :D

Troubleshooter11 · 2017-12-29T10:44:16+00:00

Holy crap. Did you put your skull in a vice to slim it down like that? I knew weight loss has an impact on the face but that's more change than i expected going from 88 to 65kg.

It just so happens i'm 88kg at the moment, coming down from 99, aiming to hit 77 by September. Thanks for the motivational post. Good job on you, sir.

DarwinianKEKistani · 2017-12-29T11:29:31+00:00

You call that ripped? Hahahah

CIAC50 · 2017-12-29T12:41:47+00:00

I ditched ( metaphorically) the mirror and actually the scales. Callisthenics, jogging, fartlek, and cross country mountain biking because Ilike these activities and can usually do them whenever I feel like, something one or more everyday. I'm 68 and want to remain active as long as possible, to never give up on exercise not because of appearance but just to feel good about myself. Thanks for posting.

Blaat1985 · 2017-12-29T13:13:08+00:00

They need to hop on TRT for it to happen.

2017-12-29T13:41:11+00:00

I tried so many diets and none of them really worked in the long run. I've been on keto the longest but I also felt the worst on it. Right not I stopped controlling my diet and just eat whatever I want twice a week. Rest of the time I am on high protein diet. I don't know how people do it but good for them if they can have such and insane progress like yours.

JohnPettimore · 2017-12-29T16:30:19+00:00

I did it, too. A few suggestions:

a) You have to be EXTREMELY careful of your diet. This takes some practice, but when you're older (I'm 55) you don't have the metabolism to eat crap. Diet is at least half of it. b) Hire a trainer. A good one. Pay him. It's worth it. Having a pro work with you makes all the difference in the world. c) Be very careful about injury. Stretch, warm up, take your time working up to heavy weights, and be very careful about Crossfit. You need someone watching you all the time, and form is critical. Example -- sloppy form bench pressing is a great way to eventually come down with a shoulder injury. d) Assume you have to work out every day. You can take a day or two off a week, if you're really beat up, but at our age, results take daily work. e) Be patient. This takes steady, consistent effort.
