truth hurts
why you may ask?
well you working out to get stronger is holding your body back. your natural strength is stronger over anything, so the fact that you work out to be stronger just proves that you're actually weak.
for me, ive never been to the gym and i can bench 20 kg for 2. most can only do like 6 kg kekw
tldr: why would someone waste 90 mins touching random machines when you could be playing valorant
hey man if ur just starting out, just keep at it. dont stop grinding you will get there one day
No anything is good. Ive talked to people who could only curl 10 pounds at 16. We listen and we don’t judge!
I mean its not that odd since we're talking about the gym since pretty much all gyms default to kg over lb or list both
i think ur looking at it w european eyes dumb euro means brilliants amer. so he might be in the top off america
wym bro 20kg is good. like i said most people ive seen can only bench 6kg max
also, form > ego. 20kg is good regardless what you think. you prob bench 22kg thinking your allat with shit form
ok but he does not have any right to be shit talking me about my progress. thats exactly why i made this post
people always sayin im too weak, im supposed to be lifting x weight and it makes me very sad :(
Don't worry cameran you're not supposed to be lifting x weight. Progress is good and not a waste of time
grown ass man benching less than bar only for 2 reps is diabolical and more so concerning
who said im a grown ass man??
also any progress is good since i used to only be able to do 10kg. i wouldve thought people supported me on this but i guess not :(
Prob bait but gym is super fulfilling imo ! ! ! It's always nice to feel healthy !
(Also idk how it is in your gym but the bar is 20kg by itself)
it is bait :3. i agree
planet fitness has downgraded bars, some as low as 6 kg though i think, so that part i wasnt lying on
Oh wow, tbf I use a smith machine because I have really bad imbalance ! ! ! The bars here are 40 pounds normally, but when I started I could also only lift the bar ! ! ! It's all about progress don't let anyone degrade you for it twin ! ! !
I thought planet fitnesses were adding free weight platforms, I saw them marketing it for a while. lowk goated asf tbh the only reason why I left was bc they had no freeweights and I was getting into powerlifting
proves my point even more.
sad that 11 year olds have to spend their lifetime dieting and spending hours everyday working out when they could be playing fortnite with their friends :(
also pls take this back. this just made me not want to go to the gym more and now im even more sad :(
by 20kg do you mean 1 20kg plate on each side + 15kg bar for a total of 55kg or do you mean 1 2.5kg plate on each side + 15kg bar
I benched 30 kg (20 kg bar + 5 kg plates on each side) the first time I ever tried bench press.... idk how are you getting the 6kg number from
i misread this and thought bro was pushing 65-70kg on his first ever bench
gym bros are like mormons they way they try to get you to go. Like bro, idgaf
I tried it, shit was not life-changing. Glad it works for u but leave me alone i dont gaf
Vlr people who never go outside, dont run, dont walk, dont have a gym at home, got no friends (just wanted to say it), have always skipped PE in school, do nothing but eat, and never exercise in any other way, so in other words everyone here, flaming the 4th GOAT cameran is genuinely crazy.
Not wrong. Gym is only really for aesthetics and if you want to max out, but overall normal physical labor(or lucky genes) is better for real strength and daily use. There are people who go to gym daily and struggle moving boxes or furniture.

Man, I saw women do 225 bench yesterday and I felt like shit. Thank you for boosting my confidence bro you the best
idk why gym is so mainstream ngl, just exercise at home. much quicker.
also gym people should start building more stamina since that’s the most useful part of exercising so you don’t get tired as easily when u run up stairs, run somewhere else, etc.
For real tho like why waste money on the gym when you could buy it for better investments like val skins and gaming peripherals
my coach told me that putting weights that make you tired in like~20 reps is good in any type so i would recommend to push the weight up to like 15
true, people like myself are naturally gifted and fit by default, we dont need these machines
doing sports growing up is already more than enough
HEAR ME OUT: what if you’re right?
what are the real benefits of going to the gym?
do you go to the gym to able to defend yourself? no, martial arts or self defense classes are much more effective.
do you go to the gym to be more healthy? no, there are much healthier workouts than pulling and pushing weights. doing anything outside, for example - just like humans used to do in prehistoric times.
do you go to the gym to build discipline? no, you can do that in other ways that benefit you much more, like building productive habits, job-related habits, learning-related habits, etc.
do you go to the gym to look better? yes. it’s about looking more attractive to mating partners. that’s all.
isn’t it so dystopian that so many of you are dragging around heavy objects, to build a strength you dont actually use?
do you go to the gym to build strength? yes. why? you don’t use it. unless… someone wants you to be strong. who wants you to be able to run around carrying heavy stuff? that’s right.
the recent gym culture and popularization of it - who benefits from it? the people that own you, that want you to fight their wars, while you wear heavy military gear. YOU ARE A COG IN THEIR SYSTEM. WAKE UP.
but that’s just a theory, a game theory.
Can't lie, I studied this in undergrad and am pursuing my doctorate, you're pretty wrong about the benefits of RT.
my apologies, Resistance training. Gyms provide an incredible output for this and a superior one that to any other option. We misunderstand the benefits from RT and try to gather it into an umbrella term that "all exercise" does the same things, and therefore all benefit will come from one form.
so you're saying there are benefits to RT that other types of activities/workouts dont have? thats interesting
w take
unless ur doing it as a hobby
theres tonnes of ways to get quality excercise without stepping foot in a gym
do martial arts instead, improve your body, your mind and learn how to figh, its perfect. I did for 2 years and was good for me
crazy when berlinglazer posts this its spamdownvote, cameran is too loved and its disgustinjg
youre right bro lets be fat chuds together❤️🩹❤️🩹 pass me the chips
Insert gif of guy muching on some crisps with bottom text containing the word cope
While you are out there eating sweets and junk food getting weaker and fatter every single day, wasting your potential every day you may think that you are not lucky "I was not lucky to be born beautiful, my genetics are not good" you are one of the luckiest mf on earth, you live in the richest country in the world, you have all the parts of your body, you can wake up and breath every day.
Do not throw away your potential and your future because of laziness and weakness, you are your only enemy, you don't have enemies.
Wake up.
lowk forgot to reply to this when i saw it. very well said bro im sure some people would enjoy seeing, thank you bro
