Stop being lazy fuck and find out yourself.

People here can't do the lifting or you, therefore, the answers won't change a shit in your life.

Improved confidence. Stronger in my job. More energy. Made me look better. Women noticed. Men noticed. Gave me some “me” time. Became a hobby that is only secondary to my career, college, and 12 step meetings. I put it above women and friends, and the results are immeasurable.

It didn’t. I got fatter, weaker and tired.

Girls found my muscles ugly, said it looked disgusting.

Guys looked at me like some hobo and treated me like shit.

What really improved my life was eating 4000kcal a day. Pizza, beer and Doritos.

It makes me feel good. It’s literally the highlight of my day.

Especially if I had bullshit day at work or something. Fucking pop in some headphones and listen to a playlist while lifting some heavy ass weight. My problems just melt away.

Personally this one goes way back. I was always smaller than my cousins, brothers and friends. In my early teens I wanted to change that cause the sport we played(Rugby) isn’t really made for slight frames. Over the next four years, and thanks to the help of an elder sister’s partner; I managed to get my weight almost up to 220lbs. By the time I hit my 20’s I was 5’10 and maintaining around 100kgs.

I did okay with girls at high-school but at college/university it was like a buffet. Parties were insane. It was almost literally a new girl every weekend. You learn pretty quick the price of pussy when it comes like that.

Fast forward in my 30’s and I recently got a lower leg injury. I have a home gym so work out every morning. Not being able to run a program for the last few months you really notice the difference. Less energy, enthusiasm and overall quality of life has definitely been impacted. Also is a good reminder why I made it a daily habit two decades ago.

Godspeed and good luck!
