When did you realise you needed to start lifting?

When did you realise you needed to start lifting?

First at 14 after seeing picrel

Then again at 26 after 2 years of not doing any physical activity and noticing chronic pain around my shoulderblade for no reason

Never did.

Good luck getting any real stories pal, nobody on this board lifts.

27-28 after realizing that being skinny/lean was not enough and my abs looked like shit anyway

I was mid 200s and approaching a new chapter of my life to meet new people.

>mid 200s
Nice.

Ngl it was May 2017 and I watched a YouTube video called "history of the misc" by Sassy & Opinionated. I immediately got sucked into the fit Memes and what not. Didn't really start lifting for the sloots, rather for shits n giggles. Over time it got more and more serious. This, ironically, got me all the sloots, since I wasn't even trying or coping n shit. Life is good.

it's p. common I think since we spend much time seated in front of the computer.

Yeah I cut 100 pounds. Its the simple things. I said I was fat and I hit the gym.

How do I become /vampire mode/?

when a girl told me i looked pathetic in a tank top

Why in all rings of hell did you think taking a picture wearing a diaper and uploading it to Yas Forums was a good idea. Why.

I was sick of normies pointing out how "skinny" I was, when I was ottermode. Of course some just said it out of jealousy, but I decided to bulk up and mog them to hell and back.

I went from obese to skinny with diet/running alone and still hated the way my body looked so I started lifting and dropped running.

At my teens when I was a fat and got health concious

Unironically, when I saw this image. It just struck me, I wanted to be like that, I wanted to wear a tank at the water park and not look like a faggot, I just wanted to be big and look like a guy that lifts, I wanted to be chad.
That was a year ago, since then, my goals have changed, I'd still love to look like that guy in the photo, but I've taken up olympic weightlifting which I find is a bit more of a 'concrete' reason to be hitting the gym.

I got mogged in high school a few times and decided it had to end

When I realized civil war or extreme civil unrest was guaranteed in my lifetime, and that I absolutely had to be physically fit to have a better chance of coming out on top.

Damn I'm also still waiting for it

I'm not waiting for anything, I'm staying prepared. If you are serious then take some time to learn land navigation (without electronics) as well.

Get the fuck out then

What has replaced that drive? Because thats a sort of kind of male fantasy type thing that is great to kick start a routine but day to day I'm not sure if a civil war would keep me working out. Probably the abs and the gains would replace the sort of philosphy. im just curious.

I noticed things have been escalating significantly in western countries. Unfortunately our Euro Bros I think will have civil unrest sooner then we will. They have:
>less land area
>more restrictive laws
>smaller militaries to respond to crisis
>the inevitable collapse of the eu & the rise of strongman populism/nationalism (for better or worse some unrest will come from this)
>migrant crises
>paranoia (whether legit or not) of russian invasion into small eastern euro countries that were in the russian empire as recently as 100 years ago
>lower birthrates with a larger welfare state
>Turkey trying to bait greece into fighting (I think turkey will eventually get IRAQ’D by nato if they keep alienating everyone)

Strange times indeed bros, godspeed and lift

First you get the shits and gigs, then the hoes follow.

Nothing has replaced that drive. The realization that war was coming was the conclusion I reached after examining the behavior and activity of certain groups within my nation. I lift because my body is the tool I will use to survive the calamity they will inflict upon us, and it is the tool I will use to seek justice against those groups when the time is right.
It's a slow burn, but always in the back of my mind that I will not survive or be able to punish them, unless I have moved beyond other humans which they have turned into their cattle.

Also I want to find and murder the faggot that designed these fucked up captcha.

At 13 when I thought I could get away with being socially akward if i had a nice body. If anything I became even more spergy and don't even try to socialize now. B-but at least I'm pretty close to 2/3/4/5.

13 yrs old, I was insecure, fat and nerdy. Went to the gym for 2 years and it mostly fixed my problems. However I stopped going to the gym when I hit 15 because I had my routine changed due to the begining of high school, which fucked up my sleep and consequently my will to go out and exercise. I became a fat fuck again, but this time my willpower was so low that instead of going out and exercising I ended up developing anorexia, making me lose all the weight again. Then due to some other problems I had at the time i ended up needing to visit a therapist. I got rid of my anorexia, but became a fattie again, and the worst type of fattie, the fat fuck who doesn't even care about being fat. But then, when I was 17, I noticed how fat I was and started going back to the gym again, in a matter of months I must have gone from 20+% to around 15% bodyfat. It felt great when my father first noticed me getting bigger and complimented me "wow user, you are really starting to get strong, good job". Never again have i stopped going to the gym.
