About lifting, diet and exercies, mostly about going 'to the gym.'

Only you have to decide what is worth for you. A lot of people are content with a 4/10 fatty as a wife, sex in a blue moon, and people pushing them around because they chose the easy life.

If you want the best in life, you have to put in the work in all important areas. Career, family, friends, health.

It's very well known that attractive people get more attractive partners, they are treated better by people, higher paying jobs, and many other benefits. Exercising and taking care of your nutrition will only help you with this, but it's not gonna come easy.

You’re right that it’s a life long commitment. It’s not always that strict diet wise. The body builders you see are generally not your goal. They are extreme.

You’re focused like them for the first couple years while you get your best results. Then you’re big and then you are intelligent enough to eyeball macros at a company event when scooping your BBQ chicken onto your paper plate.

Benefits aside from girls: - strength to defend yourself - command in any room - displays hard work - can’t be bought - can’t be inherited - raises test - sleep better - focus better - new brotherhood of juicy alpha friends

Still need more reasons?

You know how fucking sick it is to go to the bar first time after lifting for 8 months and have chicks feel your chest as you walk by without even talking to them?

No lift for yourself silly

You can get away with lifting only 2 time a week, assuming you’re doing full-body compound movements.

And assuming you’re not eating mostly chips and fast food, consuming two scoops of protein powder between meals should be the only diet change you need.

That’s nowhere near a “body builder” level of time commitment.

There’s been literal essays written on the physical and non-physical benefits of lifting. As with all things TRP, try it yourself before you tell us it doesn’t work.

Honestly when I have a routine I find it liberating in some sense, as I know I'm getting done all the things that need doing and I can enjoy anxiety free down time. Suppose you sleep 8 hours a day, work 8 hours a day, workout out maybe 2 hours max (way more than a beginner should), and spend two hours cooking or in commute or cleaning or whatever. You still have 4 hours a day to do whatever the fuck you want, be it hobbies, hang outs with friends, approaching, dating and/or banging girls, artistic expression, whatever. And you do it feeling strong and secure and with the knowledge that you've earned it.

I could also point out that hedonistic pleasure is fleeting and that triumph is the highest sensation you will ever feel, and that you cannot triumph without struggle or goals. Indeed the measured progress towards a goal and the mastery of your own life is a deep form of happiness and a style of being lifting teaches you quite handily.

And aside from appealing to women, don't you want to look yourself in the mirror and feel proud instead of ashamed? Aggressive men will be less likely to start shit with you, people will pay attention to what you say and do. Physical strength is power, and people bend to power.

If you don't think you can do it, find a friend to be your gym buddy and go together, keep each other accountable. If you want fun explore some group classes, maybe rock climbing or yoga or martial arts. Hell, hire a personal trainer to show you the ropes if you don't feel like doing it yourself- that entire industry exists because people can't motivate themselves to go to the gym alone.

The routine is not your master but your tool. As you get more experienced you will switch to other routines, you will tweak your routines, and you will have the confidence of knowing how to work your body and sculpt it to its best possible state.

If you want to subscribe to trp mentality- you should know that it's about making yourself better, selfishly, but better.

You sound like you're looming for excuses, and seem 100% like what some will call a beta I believe.

If you can't do 10 push ups you are pathetic excuse of a man.
