Is this an actual thought process and narrative you hold in your mind?
It is completely and fundamentally flawed, but it does serve as a nice warm blanket of self-pity and inaction.
Balance is a beautiful thing - why do so many on Misc seem to suffer from the psychological self-defense mechanism ofSplitting?
Step outside of this dichotomy and embrace your innate qualities, goals and passions. Smash them together and fuse them with effort - you'll likely find that you build something beautiful, and when standing atop that beauty you will clearly see the errors of your distant former toxicity.

[QUOTE=powersupplyfan post_id=1441552501]you are incorrect in many aspects. first is you dont have to fuk up your back to look aestethic, you can only do curls and look decent, second is that you disregarded genetics of various posters, depending on genetics you can either look like you dont lift or you can look very good by lifting minimally, third is that lachowski (model you posted in op but considering you are from l00kism you probably already know) actually does lift
this chest, triceps and shoulders didnt work out themselves

I can assure you that he doesn't lift.
Lifting =/= doing a few body weight exercises a few times per week, maybe 10-20 minutes each session
I can also assure you he doesn't give a phuck about macros , or counting calories.
"Oh I need to get a bit leaner so I'll eat slightly less" = / = "I need to count every single calorie / macro / micro nutrient and make sure to get that exact amount every single day without deviating from the diet what so ever"

Legit. I stopped gymceling all together since I know it's worthless and pointless without a good face or rioz (which i already have) All I do are pullups and pushups on the weekends and jump rope every other day.
All you really need. Just lol @ increasing your cancer risk by bulking on massive amounts of food + meat. Stay lean as fuk and don't worry about strength, it's useless in today's world and has been for centuries

People start getting obsessed with that "1 hr a day" , they start obsessing about what they eat, what they do, will it effect their gains or not? They become insecure with themselves, "oh chit I don't have the right muscle insertions, my upper chest is lagging so it looks like I have boobs, my biceps are lagging" etc etc, basically stuff that no one will even notice or care about.
No where did I say women don't like a good physique, they definitley do.
But a good physique to a woman = some guy who is lean with 14 inch arms and abs
A good physique to the misc = Some guy who's 6'3, 220 pounds with 18 inch arms , bulging abs @ 8% body fat.
The former is easily achievable without lifting , the latter just causes people on here to be frustrated and turn into bitter blackknights / rotters , or to become obsessed with lifting to the point where it's unhealthy.

Couple of things OP a real lifter lifts for himself not for women or attention but because he loves it, now if you have a ugly face and you build up an astestic physique your ratings goes up immediately of course you won't be able to take away chad's girl but you will get better looking sloots than a ugly dude with an out of shape body.

Relax you silly little *******. So you took lifting too seriously and didn't meet your expectations, yet are still here obsessing over it. Let it go son, there is more to life than trying to feed your ego this kind of nonsense. Humble yourself and go live your life.

Lifting actually improved my quality of life as i can eat a little more. Plus, as long as i get enough protein i can enjoy other foods i like while not exceeding 3000kcals. Plus my physique improved ever since i started although i was still really lean before lifting just a lot more skinny.
