>Punch harder kid! Punch harder and use your oxygen!

No pic sorry but I always was motivated by dragon ball z as a kid, them growing their muscles and being ripped was crazy inspiring and probably slightly sexual too for me but I just always thought at like 11 or 12 I wanted to be like that
Now my hairline is receding like vageta but my body is great

Becoming strong for her is my exact motivation to become fit.

Three things had to come together
1. I wanted to like myself in the mirror and on pictures
2. I didn't want to sweat like a pig for no reason anymore
3. I wanted to do something about my back pain from sitting the whole day.

One year later I lost 17kg and gained 3 back. Look better then ever and only sweat when it's to hot or i'm doing labor. Back pain is gone, too.

Heartbreak and an inferiority complex does the trick.

Now I do it so I dont get antsy, and i like being able to throw girls around in bed. One of them I picked up and would throw around and she told me that nobody's ever done that to her before. Feels good to be the only man to really physically dominate her.

sun ken rock, fun and great art but do not read the last arc, its beyond terrible

Why, I lift for tomboys of course.
I did well in most things I tried just as a result of talent, so I wanted to (and still do) show myself that I could also outdo others in an area I did not have any talent in.
Other than that, wanting to be stronger, more aesthetic, better at athletics and martial arts etc, what most people want
Horses don’t have thumbs, so seems like it should be easy enough to get away from it as it can neither grab your now climb, open doors etc. If it just runs you over and kicks you until you can’t move anymore you’re fucked though

>in hotel messing around
>jumps on my back
>says I can't squat with her on back
>do 5 squats
>asks me how much I think she weighs
>nailed the guess
>the look in her eyes was worth everything

With all the sex we had those couple of nights in the hotel, that moment stuck with me so much.

>One of them I picked up and would throw around and she told me that nobody's ever done that to her before. Feels good to be the only man to really physically dominate her.

Can 100% confirm, there's a reason chads everywhere pick up girls who don't want them to pick them up: because every girl loves to be picked up by the right man, and a lot of girls will go crazy for nearly anyone who does it immediately.

Had a model-tier mean girl type at my place once, she started dicking around on my PC. Told her to knock it off, she continued. "Jokingly"* picked her up out of the chair and threw her on the bed. Instantly went from playful brat to fuck-me eyes.

*played it as a joke, but seriously, get the fuck off my PC bitch

What did it for me was having a piss one day looking down and I could only see my gut, I was so disgusted with myself, I watched DBZ and really clicked with the part where vegita turns super sayian for the first time, wanting something so badly. I would load up the soundtracks and imagine the weight was an energy blast like a massive fucking nerd.

Was friends with jocks in high school and wanted to play sports with them, but I was 6' and 280 and could hardly bench the bar. Decided to fix it. Lost 90 pounds but gained body dysmorphia

I hate the fact that I look like a walking pretzel stick when I am shirtless and I want to change that.
Anime was definitely a mental boost. Looking at characters from HxH, Bleach, Jojo etc. really gives that extra motivation to get buff, and to go the extra mile.

4 years ago My brother drowned in a swamp and his remains were partially consumed by alligators when we found him. Me and my dad started going to the gym after that to lift away our suicidal tendencies and depression. So that's my motivation.

We do PPLPPL and are still fucking sad as shit, but at least we are fit for whatever that's worth...

Fuck user tough luck. I hope you continue to work on yourself and get rid of those suicidal tendencies. Me writting all of this probably has no effect on ya, but for what it's worth... Keep at it my man.

Thanks user, I appreciate it. He was my only remaining family along with my father. so once he's gone I'll pretty much be like an orphan

Something similar happened to me but it tore the whole family apart and I've only just reconnected with my mom after 8 years.

Remember the good times and be thankful your dad is a lifting bro. I'd give anything for that.

Health and mobility , as I was a huge fatass
Still a fatass but getting smaller
Somewhat embarrassing but to be more specific, I started having issues wiping my ass without a specific technique
That was quite the wake up call for my fatass - down 80 pounds so far

I used to be anorexic, but wanted to gain some weight. I really hate how I look and have had times where I got nauseous when I saw myself in the mirror. It hasn’t been long since I started, but I want to be able to look at myself in the mirror and be able to smile, take my shirt off at the pool and feel proud. But on top of that I also want to go from being weak and frail to someone who can be agile and strong, like running super quick miles and shit.
It’s a pretty narcissistic goal, but it’s a goal nonetheless.

Boredom and bemusement.

YGMI

Did contemporary dance at uni, finished 2016. Couldn't find any work for almost 2 years. Moved home to my parents basement. "Live" like a sloth. Contact my old mcdojo. Get back in the physical practice. Reconnected with a friend from HS, his friends are very welcoming. Have peers to nerd with. Recently got into Occupational therapy at local college.

It's easier to keep a balanced mind with consistent physical exercise.

Still look dyel and I feel good.

Wow. Just wow.

I started playing basketball at the end of middle school. I was generally taller than most of the other kids and could jump higher, but I was a complete lanklet. I got frustrated because people would just bump me and I'd fall down on my ass.

Another thing that motivated me was something that made it so I never bought into the whole hating leg days thing. I took karate as a kid and a sensei asked me to come up in front of the class to demonstrate something. He paused during it to laugh and say out loud "Boy you really got some chicken legs there" and the class laughed.

1.5 years ago my back started hurting all the time time. My doctor said I could go to therapy or she could give me some stretches to do and I could fix it myself. I decided to do it myself.

Since then I've lost 50+ pounds, started stretching more, started riding an exercise bike several times per week, and have been lifting weights for 6 months. My back still hurts, so I give up and I'm going to therapy soon.

So, basically, getting fit was a waste of time.

Unironically. I went to the gym for a year, stopped, and over the summer played Katawa Shoujo. Game spit on my heart and made me start running again. I figured after some weeks if I was running I should probably lift too, right?


Two years later and i'm looking the best I ever have. I still think about Emi when i'm having trouble finishing a set.

This is such a good fucking manga. For anyone interested it's called To Your Eternity

Spoilers about the little Gugu kid but he eventually grows up to be an ABSOLUTE FUCKING UNIT and gets a helmet that lets him breathe fire like a dragon. It's the coolest fucking shit in the world. The manga isn't about him specifically but he gets his own long arc and continuously shows up later on.

Imagine standing on the moon looking at Earth, so far away, but so close, and think about all the people looking back up at the moon that have no idea your sitting there. On the fucking moon. In SPACE.

You gonna make it user.

Me too, brah. Me too

don't they typically pick pilots and military people for astronauts? rather than super educated people

Don't worry user I go out at night on my golf course and pick them off with a high power .22 air rifle and if I can't kill them safely I can call wildlife control and they come and kill the Gators for me.

Even back then they needed some sort of engineering or science background. All you need now is a STEM degree and work experience. Of course you need to be really good at what you do

Jesus tapdancing fucking CHRIST what the fuck is wrong with this shitty board?
I mean...We're on Jow Forums(el) so you have to expect some level of virgin faggots and decadent weeb shits, but this....this is so fucked up. Literally 80% of the people in this sorry excuse for a thread are still watching cartoons that were mass produced by some jap shit salarymen just to cater to virgins like them. It's embarrassing really. You get your motivation from a low quality smut pseudo borderline animated child pornography cartoon? What's wrong with you? You get molested by your uncle or some shit? Why do you do this weird shit? Diabetes? AUTISM? I just don't get it. The fact that there's so many of you weeb fucking virgin faggots on this board is truly an alarming thought. But at the same time it explains everything. The low quality shit you see posted here every day....It all makes sense now. 3/4 people on this board are some weird chris chan esque faggots that jack it to cartoons and probably don't even lift. Fucking weirdos. Go see a fucking physician you fat disgusting depraved degenerates. I shit on you. Hopefully more of those gook studios get burned.
