Also, your a med school drop out, whilst your brothers are glorious engineers and masters of the universe - your parents are probably embarrassed to call you their son.

I never complained, I said that I am smarter than my sister and she makes more money - are you purposefully misconstruing my posts? I'm happy that my sister is making more money than me. It would serve no benefit to me for her to make less.

It only works if you actually lifted what you've claimed in the past. Most of these old guys are telling tall tales.

I make more than all my brothers and sisters combined. Lol. Just like I make more than you and your sister who can't stop mogging you combined, like 4 times over too.
When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song and die like a hero going home.

All that money and you're still a high-pitch voiced, estrogenic beta-male who constantly whines on the misc about any and every thing.

The local gang banger at my gym with tear drop tattoos has multiple businesses and ferraris - guess he's mugging you too, huh.

Lol. It's way too early for you to be this mad. I know you have a hard life, but you have to be optimistic.

What have I whined about again?

Also, I wouldn't know, I don't associate with degenerates. Good to know that you do. I guess that's why you're so successful and have such a great life.

Great job on misconstruing my post - again. I said he's the local gang banger, not that he's my friend.

If you're so great at life, why are you on the misc anyway?

I use swype, you're just retarded. There is a difference between a typo and not knowing the difference between your and you're.

The thing about the misc is, I was on here when my life wasn't great, when I was a poverton just like you. This place and some great posters gave me the motivation and advice needed to get my life in order, which I did. Like I have told you before, we have both been here for more than 15 years. In that time I have accomplished everything I have wanted, what about you?

I don't know any gang bangers, local or not. I don't know about them either. My local gyms don't have people with tear drop tattoos. Sorry.

Dang, really? I also used swype and it swyped a your instead of you're.

I've attained spiritual enlightenment - something people struggle to do for their whole life.

It doesn't matter what I achieve or don't - I live in a higher state of consciousness so it makes no difference to me.

You haven't achieved anything. Just last year you were here peddling satanism, this is something that you have said verbatim. Now you found jesus and have achieved enlightenment? You haven't. You're like a crackhead looking for his next fix.

Well yeah, that's how I became enlightened. It happened to me that i had a spiritual awakening and a few years on lost all desires, sadness, greif, boredom, etc. Mind never works on its own and never have negative thoughts. The spirits can do this by messing with your spiritual aspect. That's why I thought it was the bees knees. Then as I got more involved I was told Jesus is real, etc, and then put two and two together and realised I was practicing satanism.

I'm not the kind of person to hold a grudge, I come here for the drama and the lols. Outside of our fighting, I'm being dead serious when I say this, and it's for your benefit, go see a psychiatrist. I'm not gonna try to diagnose you over the internet, and maybe I'm 100% wrong about this, but a psychiatrist will give you a straight answer.

Because I'm not sad, not filled with unmet desires, and have no intrusive thoughts, now I need a psychiatrist? You're an idiot.

The psychiatrist who is a headcase himself will say I'm schizo and give me meds, whilst he has all sorts of sh!t going wrong with his mind, much like you.

The only measure of success you have is how much money you make - ponder on that for a second.

No. It's because you are experiencing phenomena that isn't real. Again, maybe I'm wrong, but it sounds like something is not working right in your head.

I measure my success by my education, my financials, my family, and my overall happiness. Money is the one objective measure.

I was experiencing that phenomena until I got baptised and became more devoted to Jesus. Demons were causing the phenomena. Now I am fine, better than ever actually. I am not saying anything that billions of people around the world don't believe BTW.

When I was experiencing the phenomena the spirit would say stuff that turns out to be true or ends up happening, etc.

For example I see you walking towards me, and the spirit says a few words and then you'd say those exact words or it would reveal something about you, etc. Stuff that cannot be a hallucination like aan exact location or quote you put up on instagram ,etc.

You shouldn't be experiencing that at all. If you already know that a psychiatrist is gonna put you on meds, then you already know something is not as it should be.

Strong non liftercel cope

You can’t just casually say “lift 800lbs” like anyone could do it if they wanted lol


I can guarantee an old guy that worked up to 600 on the deadlift in his prime will be way healthier than an insulin resistant pig that never lifted heavy cause “muh injuries”

Ronnie Coleman, flew too close to the sun, and now can barely walk. All I know is that a few years in the military mixed with heavy lifting, and nowhere near 800lbs has all my joints fuked up.

But that’s the only example you ever hear. He was abusing anabolics, GH, insulin and got botched surgeries that fuked him up

Lifting heavy increases Bone Mineral Density even in older lifters

These two powerlifted for 30 years:

I found the thread you claimed 4-6 reps with 315 on bench. I searched "godfrd fat". I can't remember how many reps you claimed last night

A Misc version is old guys who keep talking about how they used to be Chad slayers and what a legend they were. Prime examples are Hay Zeus and that Tom Paine guy. Very eye rolling cringe.

On the Godfrd824 end of things, turns out he can't even do 1 strict pullup. He says he can do 3 chinups with chin to bar ROM, maybe that I can believe. But even if that one was true, IIRC he said he weighed 265 during the 3 chinup claim. 265x3 on a low ROM chinup does not match up with 315 for 4-6 on bench at all.

He also claimed he was benching 315 since high school but never went above that because of risk to reward ratio or something. As if any high school kid ever benched 315 and said "you know what I'm not gonna go higher ever because it's too risky. I could tear a pec"

Only thing worse than the old guys talking about what they use to lift, are the 30+ year old millennials talking about skateboarding. Cringe.

The truth is nobody cares what you used to do or how much weight you can lift. It only matters what you look like. RFK Jr Bench presses like 135lbs and incline presses 115lbs. Yet everyone rages on what a great physique he has. And he's respected an admired for being lean and muscular at his age.


Almost feel bad for the delusional old guys at the gym. Quarter repping more weight then they can handle talking about what they used to lift. (They are always fat).



Literally the only thing that matters is what you look like. If you look great it doesn't matter how much weight your repping. Absolutely nobody will flex their strength on you when you have a better physique then them.
