l dont believe your story
You're a fucking pussy hahahaha stay at home and don't make it. Save the good pussy for the rest of us
You're new to the gym and didn't spend any time whatsoever checking your surroundings and didn't notice your ex-gf lookng better than ever standing next to you?
I'm with this guy. Nice thread, OP, but you're a fag as usual.
You are hitting some beyond galaxy cringe right there, son.
Anyway, never go full retard and jump straight in like you did. Just buy some cheap dumbell set, start watching videos on YouTube and for first two months build that mindset without leaving your house. When you'll get comfortable with whatever you do, go and join that commercial gym.
Might just try to go in the mornings instead, realistically. It's the closest gym by a long shot.
No, I was trying not to be a weirdo who looks at people because I figured staring at others is #1 sign of gym newbie. I was tunnel visioning.
He was so embarrassed he probably envisions her pumping 40s. In reality he was waving around 2lbs and she was pelvic thrusting a 10lb kettle ball.
alright bucko, time to get shit sorted. go to a barber today and or at the latest tommorow, get a clean shave, have him buzz down your sides to 6mm, and leave about 3 finger lengths on top for you to brush to the side. Ask him what kind of hair gel to get. Next, read the sticky, find a workout that works for you.

this is inexcusable. I personally suggest Phraks Greyskull for a beginner, and on off days you should do cardio, but not in the gym, just go out and fucking run, 2miles if possible.
Improve yourself, dont feel sorry for yourself and dont pay attention to gym thots or your ex, do this exclusively for yourself, pussy comes later.
