Who lift/improve here not because of women but because for our ego/self love/beauty ?
Who lift/improve here not because of women but because for our ego/self love/beauty ?
me unironically, I just wanna be the most good looking I can be.
i lift to destroy israel
i'm a mix of all three. sure it's partly for women, but i do alright in that department already so it's not that big of a deal. also for vanity to some extent, i want to look fucking awesome when i look in the mirror, but the biggest one for me is i wanna get better at surfing, and that's all about fitness and power to weight ratio
I lift because of men
I lift purely because of my entirely legitimate fear of dying alone and any other reason does not make any sense to me, because it's not enjoyable in any single way an the result for the time invested is not worth it
I do for both.

I lift because i want to lift heavier
I don't have any interest in powerlifting though and I don't have the genetics for strongman nor can I find a gym that lets you train strongman
i'd say the result is totally worth it (up to a point)
like sure it's a fucking slog and you have to constantly keep at it but
>completely change everyone's instinctive perception of you for the better
>increased social and sexual value
>feel great all the time, can do and enjoy more activities
as arnie said, a good body is the ultimate status symbol. anyone and everyone can get it, but very few actually do, which gives it massive inherent value
I only do it to increase my killing power, everything else be damned.
This dude looked like a gigachad at 60

ego is a route to insanity.You take bigger and bigger risks until your betting with your life and u either die or go insane thinking ur the chosen one bc you shouldev died lol. live a long humble life op. You should lift bc its healthy and fun.
I don't ever want to be fat
Yeah
He is underratef in terms of beauty
I’ve always been strong af, and big and tall (6’3”; 265), played ILB in college and really enjoyed the hell out of lifting. When I move the weight I feel an awesome sense of strength and with that, confidence. I get the same satisfaction out of clean & jerking 315 as I do getting a sack or interception. It’s mostly about having a sense of control and confidence. That’s why I lift.
Dalton was best bond. And living daylights was the best bond film.
>self love
Started because of self hatred, continued because started to love myself. Hate other people even more now so it didn't really helped me to socialize.
I certainly don't lift because of women. I lift for the following reasons.
1. It's genuinely an enjoyable activity, you literally activate your dopamine receptors in the process.
2. It feels great to finish a workout and feel accomplished afterwards, aside from the obvious dopamine rewards, you feel mentally rewarded, as well.
3. I want to be in shape because this is the only body I'm ever going to get, so I may as well take good care of it.
All of that being said, I only do weight training, but I don't try and become a roider or some sort of gigantic beast, I just try and stay physically fit, but if those are what you enjoy, go for it. Lifting for girls is good...if you're in middle school.
I lift to become strong. There are bad people who must have their faces violated, and I am taking the initiative.

Me. Fuck bitches
I do it to be effective with my life goal. My singular purpose that has kept me going since I woke up from that suicide attempt. Women have come and gone, and there was one time where I was enough of a simp to stray from the path for one, but that will never happen again.
I lift to be better than the person I was yesterday.
I lift because I know that being big means I can express whatever radical opinions I want irl and not be judged too harshly for it.
I can wear whatever I want and not have anyone ask what tf I'm wearing. I can get away with much more.
I lift because i lack personality
I lift because I suck at sports other than cycling and I want to train my body.
Based post, but less ego and more self love
I won't say that the idea of becoming a more attractive partner never crosses my mind. But my hope is that they don't see my body as a sexual tool alone, but rather a reflection of my dedication and hard working spirit
