    i dont like it one bit
    i want to train whenever i want, you cant force me to go 15 minutes earlier, 5 hours earlier, 2 hours later, whatever. I want to train exactly when I decide to leave my house.

    when im at the gym i prefer to be alone, no one saying a word just completely zoned from reality for the next hour, lifting and listening to music.

      this. including others in your fitness is inherently limiting yourself to a group setting. whats the point?

    had to partner up for football throughout highschool. felt good pushing as hard as you wanted to knowing you had a brother golem standing there ready to prevent the worst.

    Every single person I've ever met in my entire life besides my wife clearly get insecure with the simple thought of me doing anything in terms of self-improvement. Fucking gains goblins and naysayers, all of them.

    >"you can't"
    >"you won't ever"
    >"she'll never give you the time of the day"
    Done with that shit they can watch from the sidelines

      Fucking based.
      The same has always been the case with me. Guess what i did? fucking disproved them. If they aren't supportive, then they can go decay in their dungeons of insecurity for all I care. Luckily I've been good at finding the type of friends that actually are supportive.

      I can't tell you how many times I've heard fatasses that my "metabolism" was going to run out and get fat in a couple years. Decade later it still hasn't happened and now they just switched to regularly accusing me of being a domestic terrorist.

      Bros not even my parents support me while trying to become a better version of myself. I feel like it's me against every single human on this planet.

        It IS you against the world, and it always will be. People don’t want you to be better then them.

          I have a "best friend" which I know since childhood, and he is against me, exactly like our friends group, hope you and your friend make it, meanwhile I'm gonna fight every single human on this planet till I become the best version of myself.

        When you feel like this, remember you are insignificant and no one but you thinks about you (and maybe your parents)

      I have never had anyone in my life tell me I can't do anything. I don't know if this is some fantasy you've made up or you're really scarred by NPC's making mundane comments at you but let it go dawg.

      For me it's just the eye rolls and the shit eating grins they give you when you talk about self-improvement in any form. That shit pisses me off but tells me what I am doing is right and I go even harder

    Didn't like it, it'd take away my focus and I'd end just fucking around
    Probably doesn't help that all my friends are Dyels scared of putting more than 20kg on the bench

    they show up like 3 times and then start making excuses until you stop texting them about it. wash rinse repeat

    I go with my brother once or twice a week and lifting with him has taught me he's a major gay. He won't push himself as much as I know he can, and if I encourage him it does nothing. Shitting on him doesn't give him the rage to push harder either, he just shuts down like a bitch. I guess keep in mind if you go with someone you might loose all your respect for them. I much prefer going by myself.

    if you're doing the same routine its not bad, especially if they know what they're doing too. otherwise a waste of fucking time, drags your session out

    >first partner does seven different arm exercises on "arms" day
    >do my own research
    >"hey we should do deadlifts and squats"
    >'nah, that's just gym bro shit'
    Thanks for getting me into lifting, though.
    >second partner is experienced lifter
    >doesn't shower enough
    >ball stench invades nostrils when he spots me on bench
    Thanks for helping me get over my fear of going big even if I think I'm not ready, stinky.

    Other partners came and went, but those first two were the ones I were with the longest. I prefer it alone now. Everybody tries to get me to do their plan; nobody wants to do mine. And I'm okay with that.
