Long story misc, with cliffs

So I got soft rejected at work, basically got the hint that I'm too fat and ugly for her, someone else suggested me to her and she said she wants someone her own age (I'm 39 and she is 35), basically bs, but anyway I'm off work now (doctor note) and have a lot of time on my hands and I want to get back into lifting (starting strength program) and lose a lot of weight and gain some muscle.

I'm wondering if after my regular workouts if I can do exercises that won't interfere with my recovery for the main compound movements, things like wrist curls and dead hangs from a chin up bar for time and maybe calf raises, any of you brahs have any experience with lifting like this? doing really minor exercises for a lengthy amount of time just out of boredom? I obviously don't want to do compound movements for several hours everyday or it would take forever to recover.

I'm basically sick of being a fat slob, I'm about 230 lbs, 35% bodyfat.

Also, how much cardio should I be doing everyday and what kind? right now I just do 45 minutes of walking (3 - 4 mph), and it makes me break a pretty good sweat. Should I be doing mass amounts of cardio? like multiple hours everyday to speed up fat loss? or will this make it hard to recover from strength training? I'm not a newb, I just haven't got a lot of experience with cardio.

I don't really blame my crush for not wanting me, I owe it to myself to be the best version of myself that I can be, and not a fat ugly piece of sh!t, and for the record she is not ugly, she's like a 6/10, but needless to say I'm done with her as I was already rejected and don't really work there anymore.



cliffs
- op got soft rejected by a 6/10 (op is probably a 4/10)
- op is no longer working and has lots of time on his hands, wants to start lifting again and lose weight
- op wonders if its beneficial to do wrist curls and calf raises for hours
- op wonders if its beneficial to do hours of cardio everyday and if it will affect gains

When I became a baldcel in my mid 30’s I knew my tour was over . The guy I worked with was a bit of a Chad and actually had sloots hitting on him even knowing he was married.
They actually said they didn’t care if he was married, and we’re going back decades here b4 social media, so nothings changed.
When you see this it really gives you a reality pill .
It’s over for baldcels, even more so with social media giving sloots easier access to Chad

She "flirts" with other guys at the workplace, I use the term flirt loosely, she's actually teasing them playfully.

Time to get shredded. you have the motivation

Run 20-30k a week (work your way up to this obviously)
Lift 4-5 times a week
cold shower/sauna on recovery days
300-500 deficit
Look up supplements thatll help with fat loss

No dont do stupid chit like you mentioned in the OP. just make sure your workouts are intense with compounds and isolation exercises and you wont need to go overboard

Right now this is what im doing minus the deficit and im nearly just bones and muscle

I'm too fat to run, I really can't manage more than 50 steps. 50k of walking a week would be almost as good I think.

I would say you don't need to be doing more than 1.5 hours of cardio a day. Chin up op, you're gonna make it

It's terrific, right? So you know, I am in heaven."

Dude, all you need is a trucker hat, plaid shirt, lifted F-150 with mud on the side, and a 12 pack, and you'll find yourself a good ol daisy duke wearin' southern sloot.
I'm back, bitches!

Do you track your calories?
I'd say do cardio or abs instead of lifting more after lifting. I'll use an exercise bike at home while play video games for cardio.
But I think for most people, overtraining is a myth, workout as hard as you can and find out what you enjoy, and you'll be better than most.
Get used to being hungry, you should either binge on like lean chicken, or accept the fact that you're not gonna die from being a little hungry

I do roughly track calories, never did a real cut before though.
Yeah I'll probably just do tons of cardio, like an hour to an hour and a half everyday.
I don't think overtraining is a myth, when I first started lifting after a year in my lifts were still miserable except curls (could do like 55s), I was training like 4 hours a day back then almost 20 years ago, could only bench 100lbs after a year.
Yeah, I'll just have to eat less, once I quit smoking its gonna be tough to hold myself back from overeating all the time.

thanks brah, although I just use it as motivation to change, I'm not mad at anyone, not even the 6/10 that shut me down, I owe it to myself to be the best version of myself I can be, she doesn't deserve to be with an obese 4/10 (at best) man.

I admire your attitude bro. It just annoys me how much toxicity and negativity there is on this forum. We are all brahs and should be helping and supporting each other, not spewing negative useless garbage like that idiot. Good luck with your journey!
