Say before you knew what was the right thing and the proper diet. Just one good learning exercise or a bunch of wasted time? Just since "properly" working out in late October I have put on more power+mass than I did for a long time doing stupid exercises with a bad diet n sleep
“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
Anyone else feel like they wasted time?

What happens, IN HER MIND, is that she comes to see you as WORTHLESS simply because she hasn't had to INVEST anything in you in order to get you or to keep you.
You were an interesting diversion while she had nothing else to do. But now that someone a little more valuable has come along, someone who expects her to treat him very well, she'll have no problem at all dropping you or demoting you to lowly "friendship" status.

No I dont. Because its not results but the journey Im after. Sounds courney, but whatever. Just keep in mind whatever you doing is what you will be doing for the rest of your life, other wise you are REALLY wasting your time.
I get a lot of insparational crap after running at 5:30 am each morning, outside, rain or shine. Sounds crazy, but there is nothing like it. I only get off more when I race cars. You are first, nobody else is outside but cats, sprinklers spray on you and its nice, I got one spraying my a55 and I really gotten to love it. When its cold I just put the rest of addidas running suit and its fine. Women somehow notice you doing that, I bet some are up that early. You are set for the rest of the day, mahn, try it.

I only gained strength and barely any size the first 6 months I lifted. While I learned ALOT in that time I could have made 300% as much progress if I knew how to workout and diet better. I finally met some people with a physique I wanted,asked questions about their workouts and dieting and I haven't looked back since. Live and learn!
I sorta burned out my nervous system for a while going to failure or close to it on every set. I thought that was what I was supposed to do. It only worked for so long even with weeks off and only going 3 days a week. Now I only push my hardest to failure or close to failure on the last set.
Since then only a handful of times have I not gotten some sort of progress each time I repeat a lift. And i'm actually eating a bit less than I was before. More progress but less food? Gasp!

I dont think it was ever wasted time, and never do so it that way. As said, it is a LEARNING experience. I never gained much at all the first year, but I did learn how to lift CORRECTLY, and that is huge. I learned how my body worked, what it really took to do this correctly, and still to this day keep learning. Nothing was ever wasted. If anything, it helped better me, and helped me to better others.
Its kind of like in a relationship. Some complain they wasted so much time with a girl, or cant believe the time wasted with so and so. I look at it like I gained something. Maybe it was more information about a particular type of girl, or learning how to react when you get let down like never before. You take everything you learn with you for the next round. It all made me stronger, as did the above with the lifting.
Just my .02 cents.

This is strange... it almost sounds like you are upset at yourself for improving. Very rarely do people start out doing everything correctly. There has to be some trial and error involved with learning. Some people go through many injuries and mistakes before they start to see good results. Be proud you have improved, even if it took a long time, it's worth it.

It's imperative that you guys between 16 and 25 start out and maximise your gains while your natural test levels are still high, after that it gets harder and harder to grow. Especially your first two years of lifting when you can expect 40-50lbs of mass IF you do everything correctly. But if you run your body into the ground with routines out of Flex and poor nutrition, you're wasting your time, yes. Learn, learn and re-learn the basic principles of growing and maximise your early potential, and build a physique you can maintain throughout your 20's, 30's and 40's without much effort.. don't be that guy who wakes up at 35, had lifted for 20 years, paid a small fortune on supplements and gym memberships, and has NOTHING to show for it.
