People are stupid. Why would I want their respect?

im 6'2 and im 340 pounds
Girlfriends are grim. Lift to touch the power of the gods.
Nigger what's wrong with you? You've been on Jow Forums for a year and you haven't even started losing weight? Literally just stop eating so much. Go to the gym.
I finally watched United 93 which is a movie about the guys who fought back against the hijackers on the plane on 9/11 that was meant to go into the white house. There's a part where they're coming up with the plan to beat up the hijackers and one guy goes "I NEED ALL BIG GUYS." I hope one day if such a situation arises in my life, I will be a big guy
>I NEED ALL BIG GUYS
become your own man user
Reporting!
this picture always makes me laugh.
I have an intense fear that one day Im gonna be hanging off a cliff and will need to do a chin up to save my life
this but unironically
also lift for Jesus and ocasionally Hitler
just start fasting my friend.
My dad was big and strong. Whenever I had to be assertive I'd imagine what my dad would do and try to do it.
I want my kids to think that about me.
>implying I even have a gf
sister's panties?
>> legitimate reasons for lifting besides girls
Because there's no real argument against doing regular exercise.
You're a smol guy
this. a kid from my city was on a school camp and got tangled in ropes around his neck, the way it was setup he couldve pulled himself out of it if he wasnt weak as fuck. went into coma for a bit but hes okay now
>I owe it to myself to become a spectacular person inside and out, and even if I never get close, I'll get a hell of a lot closer than I would have if I'd never tried at all.
I mean getting girls is pretty nice too tho
Physical health, posture, i'm gettting old and need hobbies
>I have an intense fear that one day Im gonna be hanging off a cliff and will need to do a chin up to save my life
in a situation like that you need a muscle up.
>lifting for Hitler
Wtf
At least half of all Jow Forums posters lift for Hitler or have been otherwise inspired to do so by fascist ideology
These are the reasons. In this order
>being strong and athletic has many benefits
>other men will respect you
>women will mire you
mate you see your problem, right?
Right now my motivation is revenge on a girl, the other things that come along with it are definitely great but nothing will satisfy me more than becoming an absolute beast of a man and hopefully she'll regret treating me like shit.
I'm just spiteful. The best memory I have was going to the 4-year high school reunion and mogging all my former bullies. When the 10-year one comes, I want to mog them even harder.
>to do better in martial arts
>willpower
>to leave humanity behind
>prepare to join the military
Based dubs
It's like showering or brushing teeth
To be called a man, not boy. I'm 30.
To prove the people who thought I'd never make it wrong
I spent the first 24 years of my life being afraid, weak and frail.
No more
>stage 1 testicular cancer a year ago
Lifting to live lads
I lift because it seems natural to me to keep in shape, have been lifting since 12 or 13, and used to go jogging and do press ups since about 10.
I always see fat people and have no idea how they can do that to themselves, your body is really the only thing you truly own
>career advancement
underrated reason
she wont, women are barely capable of guilt
Dumbbell front raises are for Hitler
go hard bro
cmon bro, that's retarded, gods aren't real, and even the strongest human ever is weak as hell compared to a tractor or something
I lift to make my tractor proud
>cheez-its on the shelf
why would you post an image of a guy who will never make it?
>legitimate reasons to lift other than girls
to one day be able to out-tow my tractor
to be able to mow the law with my bare hands
