My wife goes to Koko Fit Club and brags about being on the top of the list all the time for their fitness challenges. I asked her to do a pushup. Nope. I asked her to do one on the stairs. Nope. She was finally able to do pushups off the wall. This made her sore for a few days. What the gently caress is Koko Fit Club.

I'd basically never lifted and ate enough protein regularly before in my life though so I mean I'm essentially starting from being a small computer blob

Let me see if I can boil this story down to a good length.

This scrawny guy starts coming in. Pale as hell, sallow, soft belly. Probably a lot like you.

He's friendly and doing what seemed to clearly be Starting Strength-ish. Lots of squats and deads. Dude was working his rear end off. Good stuff. We chatted and talked about it. Cool guy, was tired of being a weakling, wanted to get a girlfriend.

He's regular for a long time, then disappears. Made surprisingly few gains for as often as I saw him working hard.

He reappears at the beginning of the year saying that he had been to the doctor's and they had diagnosed him as diabetic. He was on metformin. Improving his eating. He stood straighter, said he felt better than he had in a long time.

Becomes a regular gym goer again.

He tells me he's been moved to a daily shot. Looks better and better all the time. Says his food is on point, he's eliminated almost all sugar. Said it was quite the change but he's committed.

He tells me he's been moved to twice daily shots with regular testing. Still eating like a champ. Friends me on Facebook.

He tells me they're going to an insulin pump, his pancreas is failing/failed. He's making actual gains. He's changing jobs and he's going to be changing gyms.

He posted a picture of himself with a girl. I showed it to mine.

Haha nice. I mean I'm married and not diabetic but I probably have a similar physique.

I don't really have any particular external reason like girls or whatever to want to get in shape, I've just never been in shape so it seemed like a cool idea and I have the time and all.

Everyone says taking the first step and starting to lift weights is the hardest. it's not. the hardest is sticking with it. doing it even when you don't feel like it. doing it even when it feels like you aren't improving. doing it when there there are 2 hot women laying naked in bed waiting for you. starting to lift weights isn't hard. never stopping is what is hard

Also I didn't respond to the 2nd part of this but I dunno why I'd be discouraged, I was being completely serious that it feels good to see progress and almost be able to lift 135. Like I know compared to anyone who actually lifts and a lot of people who don't it's not a lot, but it's noticeably more than I could do when I started. I don't exactly know what my starting 5x5 weight was since I did stronglifts so I started with the bar and eased up but I think the first time it felt hard was at like 105 or something and I imagine I can do that pretty easily now so that feels good. I'm not discouraged at all.

Just get on a cyclical ketosis diet or something where you need to gorge on carbs every weekend, then drink a bunch of beer and eat a whole pizza while you're hungover. It's science

Also a hot young twink guy corrected my form the other day when I was doing the stronglifts barbell rows and I guess I had my back bent a little bit. He was really nice but I didn't offer to suck his dick in the locker room afterwards so maybe that was poor form on my part?

I heard him talking later to some dudes about doing actual bodybuilding shows. He was a really small but swole dude like Tiny Lowtax

I hope I can look like that dude in like 5 years

I tried to squeeze into my deadlift suit the other day to gently caress around with it because noticed it in my pile of lifting gear.

I got it on, technically, but couldn't get my hands within a foot of the bar and now I have bruises all over my traps.

Swole guys, twinks and being over 30. Also proteins, pre workout and testosterone replacement therapy. Just a chill place to be swole without judgement (there is lots of judgement).

Edit: but jebany got banned and TinyLowtax got probated, so there's less judgement than usual.
