Get Your Asses To the Gym!!!

Niceee.

What do you do for shoulders?

I do dumbell overhead press, military press, lateral raises, and some isolation excercises for the front and back of the shoulders. What made a difference, i think, is that i superset the lateral raises and i am very strict about the movement. Last year i dropped some of the weight on all exercises and focused more on the movement. I experienced some good growth this way. Ego is one big enemy in the gym. Thinking about it now, i did got alot of compliments last year ,mostly from the guys, but i was kinda fat. I was big, but also somewhat fat. Didn't feel right. I play soccer, table tennis and other sports regularly and it was affecting my performance. I find it really interesting you don't look fat at that weight.

I am around 6ft-6ft 1, used to do the bulking/lift heavy and got too fat and hated it. Slimmed down to 14-15% BF, look good enough to be complimented by strangers, can eat relatively whatever I want within reason, and can still lift decent.

Yeh that big bulky look isn't great.

I have slimmed down recently, lost most of the belly fat.. worked on the arms/triceps so they pop out more.

Also like t throw in some cardio twice a week

I concur savior. We're usually our own worst enemies in the gym due to ego myself included. I usually get far better results when I drop the weight a bit and focus on good form vs trying to impress those around me (who really don't care in the first place). The desire for boulder shoulders keeps me going.

Because of genetics, I have naturally big shoulders thank god.

low six figures is a nothing-burger in big cities?

I agree with you that low six figures is a nothing burger in big cities. We even had a thread on this.

Women Don't Want a Semi-Successful Man

Men in this category, $75k-$125k salary, relatively in shape, drive a good car, has a few hobbies, women do not want. Why? Because this man has standards. Women do not want to work for their men. Women of today want a simp or a millionaire. Simple as that. This is what society aka social media...

In my city, $150,000 annual salary might be the bare minimum to impress women. It might even be $175,000 or $200,000.

Big muscles can offset any sort of salary deficiencies.

That’s me in my picture. I highly doubt if I were single I could compete with men of vast means. I make low six figures. Anyway, I never bothered with women who were not a potential good match. I was never rich, so I didn’t bother with women of higher socioeconomic status.

That physique and low six figures at age 45 would be competitive in the sexual marketplace.

Yeah, @We_ArE_VeNOM has a physique that would definitely be intimidating and get him noticed. But his advice is just not applicable to many people. Many people at his weight would look extremely obese. I couldnt get to 300 pounds, not even 250, even if I ate to full capacity every day, my metabolism is too fast.

Reading comprehension, sir (respectfully).

No where did I advise or insinuate for anyone to try and get to 300lbs.

I simply said to build muscle on whatever frame you are lugging around.

Lean muscle, bulk muscle; doesn't matter.

But the keyword; muscle.

Build it.
