Serious Don't look down...

Hello friends.

Let me ask you this. Why are you sitting at your desk right now? Why do you look down at your gut with disgust, fantasizing about what could be, yet never go for it when the opportunity presents itself?

I know some people look at themselves with disdain. This is for them.

I have been there myself. I looked at myself with disgust. Big gut, never ending stuffing of my fat fucking gullet. Eat, eat, eat at a young age as if it were my last day. At the age of 16, standing at 1.70 meters weighing 95 kilograms.

One day, I said enough was enough. I hit the gym, had friends with me. I learned techniques, gained form and lost 12 kilograms in under 3 months.

You know how good times produce weak men? Yep, I became weak. I stalled my workouts, was rather playing vidya and doing anything other than what I was supposed to do.

Four weeks ago, I was 89 kg. Eighty-nine fucking kilograms. I got pale, I felt that same amount of anxiety and hatred growing again. My cousin saw this. He was judging me, rightfully so.

This hatred affected my college grades. It made me hate myself. I started beating my head with my hands. I thought that I would NEVER change. That I would stay USELESS, like a fat sack of dogshit.

Well, guess what? Weighed myself today, 80 kilograms. Took me 3 weeks. 1 week of self pity and three weeks of being a go-getter.

So let me ask you this, reader. Why the fuck aren't you trying your best? What? You aren't allowed to go to the gym? Jog, go outside for fuck's sake. My workouts throughout these weeks was instensive interval cardio. 1.5 hours, three days a week. You can do this outside.

You could start eating less. There is an app, known as just Food. It has an apple logo. You can let the app estimate how many calories you are supposed to ingest. Now remove around 150-200 calories from that and you're golden.

So to rephrase that- stop stuffing your gullet with unhealthy food. You don't need a membership at the gym. It's better, sure, but the same results can be accomplished without. And don't worry. No one is looking at you while you run. No one is mocking you.

And if they do, they're fat themselves. Don't let anxiety overtake you. People look at you with respect. If you keep it up and keep coming back to the gym regularly then people won't view you as a statistic. Yes, we see people come who don't last for a fucking week.

We pity them.

Also; I dropped cigarettes. If I wanted to Blitz through my weightloss then I needed the added lungcapacity.

Anyways, enough of that. I will try to post advice in this thread. I sincerely hope that this thread will make you hold your chin up higher and your chest pumped. Go forward with pride.

We're all gonna make it, brah

Wholesome af.

And congrats on the weight-loss, my man. I started hitting the gym last year and while I've gone in and out of it due to IRL stuff going on, it has absolutely helped.

I promised to post some advice, so let me get to it;

here are the top tier cardio machines:

god tier
1. your ass, outside, running-- if you can manage it, carry a long, heavy pipe in your hands and around 30kg of cargo in a backpack @Evil
2. the treadmill; versatile, efficient and a real bitch. i would not suggest this machine if you are too heavy for your own ankles, or lack good running shoes.
3. the cross-trainer; i fucking adore this machine, it burns calories like nothing else if you go high test on it. you can go really fucking fast with it- using this machine, 3 times a week, 1.5 hours a time made me lose 9kg of weight in 3 weeks

high tier
4. the escalator machine; gets tiring really quickly, add weight to your person to train your ankles and thighs
5. the rowing machine; i personally don't like this one, since it's tedious, but it helps you with your form (the way you stand)
6. the bicycle; you're better off getting a mountain bike and taking it for a spin in a forest, but if you don't have that available, you can do it in the gym. it's versatile, you can go for long distance, resistance and intervals easily-- i don't really burn a lot of calories with it, to be fair

shit tier
7. recumbent bike; i see people use this one, instead of the regular bicycle. what's wrong with you? you're only moving your legs, leaning back on your fat ass. get off that thing and go home, or kill it like an animal on another machine

now don't let meatheads discourage you when they call you a cardio bunny. having a good set of lungs and endurance helps with the weights you're gonna start lifting after you lose some weight


now, onto 'cutting'

cutting, in short, is the art of repetition, light weights and tiring yourself out. you're gonna hold a good diet and keep your protein in check. lack of protein will force your body to use protein as a substitute when you run out of carbs to burn. same goes for an abundance of protein. you don't wanna end up noodle armed and noodle dicked after you lost weight and muscle because you fucked up your protein intake

here are some ideal muscle groups you should consider when you want to do cutting

1. literally anything to do with legs; a lot of people despise legday and bitch about muscle pains after they hit the squatrack after a month of not touching it. don't be like this. deadlifts, squats and lunges. they're a bitch to do, when the weights are heavy, but considering that you go for low weights, high repetition, the only thing you'll feel is sore muscles. to avoid this, drink water regularly (you should do this already, man)
2. push ups, benchpress, dumbbell press-- fuck, almost anything to do with chest will make you sweat (if you go for repetition) hit that bench with like 20kg on the bar (so the bar is empty, mostly) and lift it around 30-50 times. Same goes for a lot of things-- your chest is strong, no matter who you are.
3. back exercises; fuck, these make me SWEAT! bent barbell deadlifts make me sweat like a pig, same goes for back extensions

you can see a trend appears, big muscle groups excel at cutting, but you should grab your limit when it comes to auxiliary muscle groups; shoulders, triceps, biceps. they are very important when you lift, so do them right. it's okay to grab light weights, you have to learn a good form and tempo.

also, you might ask yourself; "where are the abs you fucking fag"
if you have a big gut, your ab workouts will do NOTHING. NOTHING! stop thinking that working a certain muscle area will SOMEHOW remove the body fat

NO!

stay strong people, more to come!
