Man I love it. The feeling when you've finished your training and you've taken a shower. Now I feel like a god. Drinking cool water and relaxing. Sweat is all gone, everything feels so fresh. That's one of the most satisfying feelings you can get (in b4 ahrnold cumming). Muscles feel pumped, you know you've worked hard to get them bigger and bigger. I feel satisfied I did my best. That's what I train for.What's your motivation /fit/? What to you train for? To impress the chicks or to prove yourself that you're the man?
I'm a no limit souljah, I always have to push the boundaries when working out.
When I see my uncles and my dad with their fat beer bellies, that's my motivation. I'm running away from my desttinnnnyyy!!!
I'm in the army and want to get in better shape to go special forces./oorah
HOLY FUCK IS THAT A HUGE ASS MACE THAT STATUE IS HOLDING?I WANNA BE LIKE HIM
>>75512>army>/oorahOorah? Its HOOAH, funboy.
>>75512If you're going to pretend to be a spec ops fag, at least fucking read the wiki. Jesus. I do it all the time, but at least I researched it.IM losing motivation because i see no results due to my girlish appetite i cant bulk
I wanna be the very best, like no one ever was.To catch them is my real test, to train them is my cause...I will travel across the land, searching far and wide,These Pokemon to understand, the power that's inside.Pokemon...gotta catch 'em all!!It's you and me...I know it's my destinyPokemon...Oh..you're my best friend,In a world we must defend.Pokemon...gotta catch 'em all!!A heart so true--our courage will pull us through!You teach me and I'll teach you!Pokemon!
i train so I can smash a pitch.yeah D-league softball!
I train for capoeira. Flexibility and strength.When I see lumbering oafs bragging about their highest bench it's nice to know that I can hold a handstand at 45 degrees for two minutes and then backflip over their asses.The motivation though is definitely that my girlfriend of six years broke up with me. I was only 30 lbs overweight, so I wasn't huge, but when I started this whole fitness thing I was in the middle of a suicidal depression. Now I'm ten lbs overweight with muscle and for the first time in a while I pretty good.tl;dr working out to burn the emo, also fightan dayns
As soon as I'm content with my body and my indomitable disposition - I lose the game.I don't want to lose the game.
>>75609You think you're acrobatic skills give you any advantage over a guy with hueg muscles?No need to be pretentious just because you have a girly body.
>>75631Do you remember when Trunks reached USSJ and fought with Cell? Do you remember how he ultimately lost despite having overwhelming strength? It's because that kind of great strength and size comes at a price: the loss of speed and agility. Goku and Vegeta both understood that, and it's why they chose to pass that form over in search of something better.
>>75646dbz nerd, i have the strangest mixture of love and disdain for you right now
>>75646HahhahahahhhahahahahahaWhat a great troll
>>75646the difference in the real world and dbz is the differences in ability that can arise. Also flight.you see, you cannot get behind a guy instantly by getting skinny, and then what would you do with him. certainly not hurt him, no muscles.
>>75650>>certainly not hurt him, no muscles.So you assume that "not ridiculously overmuscled" means "no muscles"?
i train for basketball. it seems that everyone is naturally faster and stronger than i am, and so i decided to hit the gym to compensate. yes i love the sport THAT much. also i am only 5'4" which puts me at another disadvantage. but my love of the sport drives me to improve myself for it as much as i can.
>>75650if i were standing behind a big muscly fucker who wanted to kill me, i'd stick a knife in him
I train to get back at my ex damn bitch, lol. However, I do find it to be very excellent motivation to push harder.
because it gives me a reason to live
I'm training to impress someone...
If anyone says anything other than 'pussy' they are lying, are deluded or fags.So I guess my answer is pussy. Sweet, juicy pussy, of all colors and shades. Tight, loose, pretty, average, hairy, bare, I love it all.
Now that I'm in my mid twenties I see that dexterity, stamina, etc aren't in excess supply anymore. I now understand why people shy away from eating a bag of chips and a pepsi for dinner. I have to work for it. I see my parents in their 50's pissing away their bodies. My mother is nearly bedridden due to her weight and various health problems. If she goes on like my grandfolks she'll live another 30 years like that.I'm married and not interested in getting pussy on the side but I'm not dead. A second glance from a girl is motivation enough.
>75506That's<
>>75609>>75631OK, YOU LITTLE PIECES OF SHIT (ESPECIALLY *YOU* 75609) CAN WE JUST SHUT THE FUCK UP WITH CRITICIZING EACH OTHER'S GOALS AND BODIES?If you want to train for flexibility, functional strength, agility/speed, whatever, then JUST FUCKING SAY THAT, don't say "Yeah I train for this and blah blah blah I am so much better than guys with huge muscles".If you want to train for huge muscles, then JUST FUCKING SAY THAT, and don't say "So I can be better and strong than guy with those guys with "girlybodies" and their "functional strength" lololol".Seriously. It's fucking annoying. You can talk about what kind of physique you want and what kind of physiques you admire without criticizing the kinds of physiques that others want/admire.Seriously, this is not a fucking pissing contest. Or it shouldn't be, anyway. If you're going to behave like this, gb2/b/.
I work out because I feel better about myself the stronger/better in shape I am. It's definately an alpha-male complex. I dig being stronger then other people my size. I push myself in MT to do more push-ups, sit-ups, run faster, jump rope longer, and to kick/punch harder then the person next to me.
>>75506OP is obviously gay.
Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger.Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger.Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger.Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger.Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger.Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger.
The price of ruffies has gone up because america's econmy is in the shitter, and that was the only way i got any tail
>>75631>>75884I'm>>75609and I honestly didn't expect to start a shitstorm. Actually I'm naturally more mesomorphic than anything and I look fairly built, certainly more built than the other people in my roda (capoeira group, yada yada). Anyways, I didn't mean to bash people who are into the whole bodybuilding for its own sake thing, I just don't share their goals.
building up my self esteem so i can find a new girlfriend that won't control my every move.
>>75845I agree. Its beautiful really. Everything man has accomplished has been done to score some pooner. The wheel, agriculture, calculus, its all done to spread crotch fruit.
>>75506I grew up in a home with alcoholics and people who couldn't say no to every kind of impulse imaginable. Our home wasn't the cleanest or the most organized either.I'm sure my obsession with controlling my body and house is at the opposite end of the spectrum but I'd rather deal with this than live how I was raised. Not being my parents is my motivation. I wonder how healthy it is since pussy is a distant second.
I train for function and survival, to prepare for when the zombie apocalypse comes.
>>75962Zombies. Do it for the fucking zombie invasion. They will eat the fat and slow first.
>>75967I'm glad to see someone like minded here. We'll be the only ones to survive the zombiepocalypse.
>>75920*morphic along with somatotypes is a bullshit idea from an out of date theory
>>75967>>75969I'm with you guys. Martial arts will let me run on the heads of a crowd of zombies with impunity and I shall breed a race of super skilled and fit humans who can cleanse the world of the zombies. We together shall reclaim the world.On a related note: that means 4chan will have sired a large proportion of the survivors. Does this bode ill?
>>75967/thread
>>75979We will be the counter-balance to the jocks, bodybuilding.com, and T-Nation junkies that also survive. We will be the new elite.TL;DR version: Yes, really fucking bad.
>>75962>>75967>>75969We are wise men, pure men. Godspeed and fair-well, brothers!
>>75979Only the most ruthless, cunning bastards will survive. We're talking IRL here, not OL. That means the typical 4channer will probably die in the early moments of Z-day.
>>75986Make your way west brethren! I will wait for you in Southern California, where we shall start the anti-zombie resistance!
>>75979i doubt it because you would break their neck when you step on them causing you to fall into a crowd (even if you only weight 145lbs it is likely their rotting necks can't support you), and they rotting skulls will probably be slipy with blood,puss ect...
Niggertits really needs its own /zom/bie board, just like 7chan, but it'll most likely suck more.
>>75990most 4channers are paranoid escapist idiots, they would kill themselves setting "zombie traps"
>>75907No. I'm just starting to love my body. Not only my pen0r, everything else. Bicepses, chest, shoulders..
>>75509to make say uhhhhnnn
>>75996You underestimate the inestimable grace of my movements. I know this because their grace is inestimable. My movements, that is to say.
>>76359You irl.
>>76372Haha! I will spring from my zombie-proof fatsuit and jump nymphlike from head to rotting head off into the horizon to meet my sexy destiny.
I started to work out 7 years ago because I wanted more from life - hotter girlfriends, more respect from people I don't know and just being able to have more energy in everyday life and at that point - also a new lifestyle.Today I know I go to the gym for totally different reasons.I came from a home with parents that would ignore me and wouldn't care about what I did. It's a long story but it damaged me somehow and today I use excercising to keep my mental issues to a minimum. When I work out, I don't get stressed, angry or as depressed as I used to do - which is quite a big thing for me. I inhereted my parents trait to have a short fuse and getting angry about nothing and everything. Yelling at people for asking me stupid questions and things like that.When I work out I'm much more mellow and satisfied and I'm able to take much more from society.Right now I'm thinking about entering some competitions and maybe taking my workout to the next level.The only negative side I have to working out is I'm totally addicted. If I dont work out for say a week I get irritated and that bad temper comes back.But the gym has always been there for me. It's seen my bad times and my good times. My parents didnt care - but the weights somehow did and I know they always will.
>>76378you sir, are a poet.
Everyone else seems naturally harder/better/faster/stronger than me and some even have perfect bodies by sitting on thier asses playing games all day. So I'm saying "fuck you creator" I'm not bowing down to my fat ass destiny, I'll fight it.
I TRAIN BECAUSE I LIKE TO PWN @ LIFE.
/zom/ board for 4chan NAO! 7chan is for fags
I work out because I am not exactly a looker. So the least I can do is keep my body in a tip top condition.
I workout so I can impress my hookers. When I was fatter, they weren't really into it, I guess since I was a fat lecherous slob. Now that I'm beefy, it seems like they enjoy their whoring with me much more.
be a strong mofo.
I work out just to have good skin. That's basically it.
>>77982good skin?? Working out causes me to break out.
I've been training in Martial Arts (Muay Thai, BJJ, Judo, Wrestling...yes, it's a martial art) for several years and now train MMA. if I don't stay in shape people will beat the shit out of me, especially since I'm not that big (145 soaking wet).Only thing is I'm not as motivated unless I know that I have a fight coming up, otherwise I don't bust my ass and get in great shape. I just do enough to hold my own in the gym.Plus, I get noticed more by girls when i'm in shape. But that's more of an added incentive than anything.
>>77985showering helps.
I TRAIN...FOR THE FUTURE OF OUR CHILDREN\(>3<)/
>>75519Different country. I've been on exchange to America and love you guys to death, but don't force your capitalist buzzwords on me you chauvinist. rawr.PS: please petition your government to bring back the hooah bars.
>>78407Oorah is for American Marines. Hooah is for American soldiers. Get out, communist.
>>75646Now that's eloquence.
The feeling of noodly arms and shakes with adrenaline pumping so hard you feel like you're flying.
That relaxing feeling comes from endorphins that enter your body after exercise.
I'm...actually on a mission of sorts. A personal one, sure, but one nonetheless.I want to trim down/tone/become lean as MUCH as POSSIBLE so I can single handedly prove that an average guy, like myself, CAN crossplay well if prepared properly.I've had it with the stereotype of crossplaying being mainly for guys who SERIOUSLY look like chicks naturally or ugly fat fucks who wanna wear tight fitting sailor uniforms.Oh, and I wanna prove it can be done by straight guys as well, which I am. So I've got a lot on my plate in terms of what's ahead of me, but that only motivates me more and more to push myself that much further in my daily exercising and dieting.Pic not related, don't worry.
>>78439and Hooyah is for badasses
>>78489i'd hit it if you know what i mean... and i mean consensual sex in the missionary position OH YEAAAAH
>>78500lol wut?No seriously
>>78500OH YEAAAAAAAH
>>78505you are the winner, 2 internets to you
I'm with this anon. --->>>75845
increase chances of getting bitches.
To increase my acrobatics to 100 so I can jump on the surface of water if timed properly.
>>78497And then we say huzzah.
>>78505>>78596I lol'd at both these things.
>>75506Holy fuck OP...are you me?
>>78611Yes. I am you.But if I'm you, who the hell am I.Also, I noticed that the progression thread is unstickied and removed. Excellent.
>>78596navy seals = spec opsredcoats = standing armylern2military
>>78622Oh yeah, huh?Btw OP, why didja make this thread anyway? What do you think of the answers so far? Any answers you like in particular? Why?Just curious. Thanks and congrats on making an interesting/original thread.
Just to not look so odd, I'm bony-level skinny so the muscle I have is the only thing in place to keep my bones from showing since I don't have any real body fat.
bump from the grave!
The greeks sure have tiny dicks
>To impress the chicksand you know what? it works. strength is the epitome of masculinity and it drives chicks wild. im not even joking...im not that big (6' and somewhat toned but still overweight) and friends and strangers notice...when im in a group and some stranger addresses us, the strangers always call me "the big guy".tl;dr, just a little lifting pays off, chicks will notice and want you in bed w/ them.
HEY!what is OP? that statue is SUPREME...
To answer OP's question, I work out just to... I dunno make myself just a bit better.I'm an attractive guy, with a charming and attractive personality. I have no issues with my body, and don't really have trouble getting girls or anything. I dunno. It just seems that girls work hard on their figures, and I mean I can lift weights and exercise just to make myself a bit better.Also because I guess I don't do much during the day. At least no one can call me a lazy slob.
>>79204I personally have no idea but I bet you ANYTHING it's like...Zeus or something. Btw didja notice that giant fucking mace he's leaning against? Lol compensating for something much?
>>78489World sure is big place...
>>78631I dunno. I just felt like I need to share my joy with you.I liked guys who wrote,that they were training to impress someone, that's kind of romantic, ain't it?>>79204Yeah, that's because...>>79207THAT"S FUCKING HERCULES AND HIS MACE. He had to be awesome beyond words and built like one tough motherfucker. He is at least as strong as Atlas.Also, I'd buy this statue if I had an occasion.
>>75967>>75962>>75979>>75980>>75990>>75994>>75998>>76004>>76378A little gift from a /fit/ drawfag.Print this out; hang it where you work out.
>>79225For a demi-god he sure had a tiny pecker.
>>75845>>76562>>78528yeah i'm just in it for the puss too. it's cool tho, learning about muscle groups and protein and shit. lulz
I do it for my health. I'm skinny as fuck, and have no history of health problems, but I really do fuck all in terms of physical activity. And since I don't want to die at 40, I want to keep myself in good shape.Girls don't give a shit about looks, gentlemen. You're doing it wrong if you think better bodies are going to change your social anxiety that truly keeps the chicks away.
>>79238Excellent!
I see all the people jogging in the park and by the road every morning with their brand name sports gear and their ipods and sweat bands and think, I wanna be just like them.
I love being muscular. I do it because I love being intimidating. I love when I get told I look big, and even better when people say I'm built like a shit brick house.I do it to feel like the biggest, badest motherfucker in the room. So that everyone knows it.
>>79296Ipods may be trendy to some people, but music is nice while jogging, and the Ipod does its job really well. I will never regret buying mine.
>>79304Hopefully you die of a tumor someday.
>>79304I love you.
>>75962>>75962>>75962>>75962>>75962>>75962SLASH MOTHERFUCKING THREAD
>>79304lol, pretty good actually. 7/10
because it feels good to wake up every morning and look in the mirror naked and smile..rather than look in the mirror and see a fatass
I'm getting to the point of looking like Zeus in OP's pic, in that my obliques are getting so muscular from deadlifts that they just hang there. Which is awesome, I love it when people accuse me of having love handles, and then I get to show off my six pack and hanging 'bliques.
>>79257That's because the Greeks felt large dicks were goofy and for retards at the time.
>>79556dude, seriously? o_o
bumpforawesomethread
>>79558lol @ baby greek dick
>>79546That's heracles you retarded bitch
>>79610Was that wrong? Should I have not done that?
Greek aesthetic values said that childlike, hairless male pubes were the ideal in their sense of physical beauty, therefore greek sculptures were often portrayed as such, and not because they actually had tiny dicks.
