Anyone still here from around 2011?
I was just reminiscing about how much better the fitness industry was back then. I want to hear some oldfags favorite things about fitness from 7+ years ago.
Mine absolutely is the fact that women didn't even pretend to lift weights back then like they do now. Imagine walking into the weight section of any gym and not seeing some caked up hoe in lulus doing something retard.
Take me back.

Imagine being 5’2 and being able to look good doing that program
I was here from the start, though i was like 14. I remember taking everything as gospel. One thing in particular was not working upper chest. I ended up with a gross looking torso and with my shit form i had frontal delt imbalance.
imagine having dead parents at that height lmao
The best thing about this board in 2011 is that there weren't all these fucking /fraud/ roidhead losers about. It was just humble guys lifting and being supportive. Now, we have an entire legion of horrible personalities, roided to the gills, and trashing up the board.
That's like #8 of the things ruining this board.
lmao@ how outdated that routine is
it's amazing how far fitness knowledge, routines, nutrition and supplementation have come since that literal dark age
Totally true man now that I come to think of it
Those roid threads were never a thing... until they were.
I remember when they used to have sources doing them and shilling their gear. Lmao I remember how many morons actually bought their gear off this site, don't know if that is still a thing.
The fitness community in general didn't have this obsession with steroids which are retarded and gay.
Remember when DNP was the big thing back in 2013
>daily DNP threads
>sources being posted on the threads
>people nearly dying left and right from consuming poison
Lol I remember Zyzz and Jack3d I don't know what you are talking but I juiced as well back then.
I miss trucrypt
I browsed Jow Forums like a madman in 2011-12
Then I stopped.
Nowdays I browse Jow Forums once every couple of months or so.
to add, isn't Tinytrip the one that started the LONDON meme?
Does anyone have the penis picture from the you mad? trollpost
there's a dnp discord that does that now
Yes, he mistook a guy for a girl and said "Please be in London"
I almost bought some back then. Now people just fast huh?
Other than the lack of re is nothing wrong that program? It’s a little basic but you can always add to it.
I remember trucrypt(was that his trip? the permanent DYEL), zyzz and tiny posting here
I'm also a DYEL
Did Tiny ever hang himself off a doorknob?
Soon we'll see people dying of fasting too.
Probably tons of fags who do something wrong or some medication or some condition and there will be an "epidemic"
Was tinytrip a roider?
He certainly looks like one
He was 140lbs and 5"4. He really didn't need to roid but you never know
yup, his lasting legacy
he never made any progress..,
I was not here during that era but this board has become a gold mine for cringe. Sure, some are bait posts, but the overall lack of basic knowledge of lifting and not reading the fucking sticky is amazing.
Fitness industry died along Rich Piana
did tiny actually kill himself or did he just outgrow (kek) Jow Forums
post more tinytrip motivation
Did TinyTrip actually die or did he just go dark?
this
where is tinytrip?
probably pulled a Zyzz
People claim he left because of the dead parents jokes. Hope he is doing well wherever he is.
No one should do this program expecting to look like tinytrip. He called himself tiny for a reason.
that's an old meme I hoped to forget about
hahahaha yeah brings back memories.
Shit went from ECA to DNP so quick.
Pretty sure at his peak he did an oral only cycle of anavar when that was a Jow Forums meme that people fell for
trucrypt's #1 fan
Bullshit, zyzz, quad, tiny, they all juiced up. The thing is there wasn't /fraud/ back then so you didn't know about it being so common
>2011 was 20 years ago
He made a farewell post and said Jow Forums was really getting to him and that he'd be leaving. To his credit, he really did leave and didn't come back. I remember being a little sad about it.
Yes, he admitted doing anavar. His dead parents inheritance allowed him to buy it and not get broke
He started a blog after leaving. "Attackofthe20footalex" or something like that. He lost all his gains and is a dyel now.
I've been here since then. Lots of fun times, it has definitely changed but I will say everyone thinks it's r9k's fault it is so shit now but really the world was a very different place 8 years ago. We didn't have Tinder, we didn't have Instagram, we didn't have a bitter presidential election, we didn't have zoomers, etc.
The world has changed a lot and Jow Forums along with it.
Huh, never knew. I left pretty soon after.
>He lost all his gains and is a dyel now.
[citation needed] I really doubt a person who lifts seriously will ever just let themselves go like that, particularly if they have manlet insecurity.
You're a dyel and have been lifting 2 months. It's very common for people to stop being fit. It takes constant hard work to maintain a good physique. If you lose motivation, your body goes bye bye.
t. Less than a year lifting
Once you get injured and stop training due to it you'll realize losing your gains is extremely easy and motivation to pursue it fades away over time. That's why you don't see many 40+ people in gyms
wow you just really can't come up with a photo to back up your claims can you faggot lol
2011 and 2012 was such a comfy time for me
now im a 30 year old dyel incel retard neet
Anyone remember Uzeeh? Those were the times
You're an idiot and you definitely aren't going to make it.
You mean back when this board was Fitness & Health
2012 reporting in.
The biggest change is that back then Rippletitties and linear progression beginner routines were all the rage. Now it seems like everyone talks about work capacity and the need for super high rep ranges. Also, deadlifts are out. No one sucks rippetoes dick anymore, everyone sucks Wendler's dick instead. No one talks about oats or GOMAD anymore.
That's what stood out to me.

Remember lolzgym?
>Mine absolutely is the fact that women didn
I miss frank yang.
I know he's reposting again on his youtube channel, but it's not the same thing without his cult of watching him drink johnnie walker in between deadlifts.
There was a plague of feels threads all over
I miss them
I am
That is the main issue?
I wasn't there back then, was there all this low-quality spam, trannyposting and incelbullshit?
>low-quality spam
yes
>trannyposting
back then it was just traps, and it was mostly ironic except for when it wasn't
>incelbullshit
Jow Forums always hated women, it just wasn't called being an incel
Isley, ever remember the first ever body shot you posted on here? The one with the perfect lighting? You were really lean in that. Do you still have it?
I have it on my laptop but it's in storage in England.
>incelbullshit
you have to go back, buddy, and pretend there that you get laid
Here you go
I actually can't believe I've been around for so long. Jesus fuck man.
What a complete waste of life
On my pc I do, but I'm not near it atm
Amazing. Fucking history.
>Been around long enough to have 9+ years of lifting under my belt and I'm still barely athletic mode
Cringy af era dude. Fit is 100% better now. And no I'm not a zoomer. I was here around 2010.
Recently got back to misc/fit again after same period, super active 6-7 years ago - and so much has changed meanwhile like wtf. Misc is practically dead and full of either incel or rate threads instead of random discussions or even remotely entertaining threads.
Maybe I changed, who knows...
I still got plenty of memes from 2011 and before.
me too man. i had so many dreams of juicing up and being like zyzz
fuck. so pointless to start life now, by the time i'd get fit i'd be invisible to women
I remember a tripfag from long ago that would make little comic strips for each of his runs and then compile them into these huge images, each row being whatever happened on that run. Do you have any of those saved by any chance?
I miss the old Jow Forums
I think I remember but sorry, have none.
gentlemen, this is cope and you know it
I am.
I still haven't lifted anything.
fuck my stomach hurts from laughter
Oh man, good times.
envy is a cardinal sin, repent
These make me sad I missed them, I wasn't lifting back then but doing martial arts. Seems like a comfy type.
Remember that powerlifter that had gym that became a meme reaction face? He was a bald dude.
Are you me? Got to 200 kg squat / 120kg bench / 210kg dl at 85kg in like 2013 and then just quit lifting. Trying to get back to going to the gym 2-3x week but don,t know what routine to do. 531?
Remember when Scooby came to Jow Forums and hid a message in some fucking audiolog or something, it took a bunch of fit sound engineers to work it out.
Timeless classic
>zyzz#noonga
Scoobyposting was so wholesome.
