I doubt I will ever feel ānormalā if that is any consolation
well normal as far as normal goes lol
in the sense i felt good enough to wake up and do my daily things without second guessing it because i was too tired.
Edit:im still not fully doing my cardio the same as i was before hand ā¦
but my actual bodyweight training is now back to a a higher level than it was before hand.
EDIT: the mixer at work broke down last week and i had to manually transfer all the mixed from bowl to bowl by handā¦ i was watching people do it and they were struggling massively so i said iād do itā¦
they said they dont think they seen anyone in the ten years they worked there make it look so easy. lol
so i dunno maybe it did do something to my strength i just didnt feel any different.
I was also thinking about trying it out.
Yet i donāt have enough time to commit enough training to it at the moment.
Only thing i take is whey protein isolate.
Btw
Big respect to your transformation.
thanks man i appreciate itā¦
i think it is more of a cosmetic thing creatineā¦
if u feel u have enough energy to do what u need to do without i would recommend sticking to thatā¦
but if u wanna go to the beach and turn headsā¦ maybe use it lol ā¦ unless you already look good without it ofcā¦
EDIT: i personally work out because i want to be the best shape i can be while i can be ā¦
i didnt wanna get to a age where i stuggle and look back and think i wonder what it would be likeā¦
that is what inspired me to get off my butt and get in shape.
iāll never be in the peak shape i could of been ten years ago ā¦ but i can get as good as i can
strength never fades after all.
the bonus is my peak shape now is still better than most people 10 - 15 years younger than me so it doesnt matter.
Do you live near a McDonaldās ?
I think we discussed it a little bit before.
I mostly see rather thin/normal sized people in Sweden.
But at the 24/7 chain gym thereās a lot of mixed people. Half of them trying to lose weight. The rest are pretty average apart from some beefcakes now and then
At the power lifting gym itās a LOT different. My 95+kg body is rather normal
Compared to the big boys that compete in the 3 big lifts, I feel tiny
And of course Iām happy for you mate, donāt want to come off as anything but happy
Oh and have I already tried to recruit you to the gym/disco and/or beach/wrestling bbq parties?
Maybe I have
Anyway, Sisoki is another flex bro and he asked for food so

people here vary in weightā¦ but then the ones which look relatively healthy are generally pretty unhealthy and cannot run , or lift or do just about anything i guess they are just genetically built to look healthy but not be healthy.
there is a big difference to looking healthy and being healthy in my opinion.
and most people go for looks.
EDIT : question i asked myself wasā¦
Do i want a beach body and get the ladies, or do i want to be able to lift over my body weight and not tire outā¦??
then i asked myself ā¦
What is more useful in life?
and it is endurance everytime.
Same with some of the bigger guys. They focus on gaining mass and strength but far too many forget about cardio. Or they just donāt want to rather.
Their choice.
About 2 years ago I decided to give up on gaining mass but still try to get stronger. And focus more on cardio like running (outdoor mostly) and spinning bike at gym.
Apart from a little āsidetrackā up to 105kg+ I felt a big difference.
So yes, no matter what happens in the future, age, smaller body, weaker strength, cardio is very important to me.
Donāt let all the food pics fool you
Both! Is the correct answer
i am the same ā¦
i am trying to stay around 75 - 80 ā¦ but maintain the same strength i had at 120ā¦
it is working out as wellā¦
Cardio is always first for me ā¦ a healthy strong heart makes a stronger person in my view.
i have ran over the last 3 years well over 5000 miles in totalā¦
i havent fully tested myself, but i can nearly lift double my body weight.
EDIT iāve also started to do a bit of calisthenicsā¦ nothing amazing ofcā¦ but it helps me with control and balance ā¦
last year i could not even do a single pullup ā¦ now i do 100 a day.
EDIT2: was watching a beat me in pushups video on youtube the other dayā¦
the target was set at 55ā¦ and only 1 person managed to beat it out of all the people that triedā¦ so i gave it a go here to see if i could beat itā¦ i managed to do 75 without gaps and proper formā¦
it made me realise just how few people do actually look after themselves .
I donāt really work out, and still a low and solid 70kg with only a bit of stomach (which doesnāt get bigger however).
I decided with the old classmates once to do a bit of workout at our hostelā¦ in the end, we did it once and never bothered after, sleeping in the afternoons was much more pleasant.
I did take some cardio training lessons however over the course of my 5 years there. With a generally unpleasant cuisine at the hostel, it was easy to keep our weight in check, as well as body - matter of fact, I was one of the very few ppl who actually liked PE lessons or anything similar.
But mostly because of games. Especially volleyball and football - one of the chicks could kick the balls like no one else in fact thank god she never targeted mine.
Another week for me then 14 days off - got my sonās enrolment day at college in my first week off
difference is Twiluna doesnāt talk about himself in literally every single post he makes no matter the subject
yum! hereās bacon!

Doubt any of us would brag about ourselves really - this is meant to be one of those fun threads you hit up for a good read, or where you can do a bit of āofftopicā or small talk, so to say - many forum regulars keep in close touch ingame as well.
Thank god, Finished Sanctum on Normalā¦
I need a trple cheese and bacon burger
2/3 jello cat, yaay
Pathetic drops ,but whatever, step closer to a mount I probably never use, just so angry the whole LFR thing, I decided to have just to have it
Defiance and is my defining trait it seemsā¦
Iāll have to wait for it a little longer because my friend is going on vacation and itās more enjoyable when we can banter on Discord. I was a bit tempted to do it but I can wait a little ^^
Gratz! Itās almost yours.
Now, after finally finishing my first lower kara (of only hopefully 2), I really crave a reward like this:
Send my way some, thanks!
say you donāt know anything bout working out without saying etc etc, sure hope you donāt hand out advice to aspiring gym goers
