Why is 90% of the male population content with having a chitty physique?

[DestroyerM]

Pretty much every one of my male family members, every one of my male friends and every one of my male work colleagues is either scrawny, skinny-fat or just plain fat. Why do so few men have the desire to have a good physique nowadays? Surely deep down they want to be sickening? Surely deep down they want to be absolutely pissening?

I'm not trying to hate or take the high horse here... I just can't seem to relate to guys who couldn't give two chits about having a beer belly and no muscle mass. No homo but ever since I was about 12-13 I fantasised about the type of physique I would have when I got older; I always had the idea in my head that men should have muscular physiques.

Do you think most men *do* want a good body but just lack the discipline to achieve it? Or do you think they genuinely don't give a phuck?

[Lolzing]

i guess they dont even lift

[ifitness1]

Because being big and muscular has no bearing on being successful in life. It's a hobby.

[mjf100215]

People have different goals in life? Some aspire to have great jobs, high salaries, to be a great dad or husband even if it means sacrificing their bodies and health.

An old boss of mine was the size of a house. She told me that the only thing that mattered to her was how many degrees she had and that her job title or salary was going up each year. Physically she was a disgusting pig, but she didn't seem to care.

[SmithMachineGuy]

They must all have huge penises.

You're on tech *******. You wouldn't understand the difficulty and how long it takes for a natty to achieve a respectable physique.

I dont want no medicore

If you think having an impressive physique is more important than intellectualism then you are literally a NAZI FASCIST and you belong in 1939 srs.

[ifitness1]

Also, 90% of "jacked" people in the gym are poor as fk, and have ****ty jobs/careers

[JustAGuy94]

most people would like to have a good physique but no one is willing to put in the effort

You aren't falling into the, "I don't have the time/If I didn't have a job I would look like you", trap, are you?

I, and a lot of other miscers, have very ambitious goals in all aspects of life; education wise, career wise, relationship wise and interest/hobby wise. Why does it have to be one or the another? It's not hard to sacrifice an hour or two in the morning or evening whilst keeping on top of all your other priorities in life.

This.

Just like some guys aren't interested in sports but like working on cars and stuff like that. Plus even though I hit up the gym 5 days a week I still like to go out and have a beer while watching a game. I dont let the gym life interfere with my personal life. I dont want to look back 10 years from now and be mad I spent the prime years of my life in the gym and missing out on life.

The nazis were actually super smart. They had tons of scientists.

[The-BeAsT]

having a good physique is still a luxury. good food and time to spare to go lift are privileges. People see that making gains is not so easy and they give up

[TypeNirvash]

My question to you, OP, is this;

Why does it matter?

Does it concern you what other people do with their lives? And if so, why?

When everybody has an amazing body, nobody does.

nice avi *******

lol most of the guys in know with exceptional physiques no homo are also successful in other areas of life

[KILLdante]

bodybuilding = hobby

Not everyone has the same interests/hobbies as you do bro.

[BreakToBuild]

Good luck when you are in your late 20's/early 30's trying to crush it in a career. It's not nearly as easy when you are working 12 hours and have no energy to meal prep.

Making gains in real life (money, networking, etc) takes time and energy away from making gains in gym.

You and I need the gym time to keep the foundation strong, but most brahs have football and beer as that foundation.

When I was in high school, I was overweight/mildy obese. I had 4.5 gpa and played a chit ton of pc games. Got to college, lost weight, played less games, got worse grades. It's hard to maintain everything. Sometimes you gotta pick and choose. Even if there is enough time in the day, do you have the energy and willpower to do it all? Both of those are things you burn through every day.

[xhezmie]

being jacked is for insecure losers (srs)



(not srs)


but in all seriousness, if being jacked is the only thing you care about, you are 100% a loser

I would value health more than intellectualism.

I wouldn't value a aesthetic bodybuilding-type physique over intellectualism though, no. But why does it have to be one or the other? Why can't you be both an intellectual *and* have a nice physique?

[DestroyerM]

you should rename your title OP:


why is OP such a *******?


because it's OP making new accounts, making the same chit threads every hour because his main acc is either red or banned for the same thing(making chit threads/posts)

Don't have any other accounts. Even ask a mod to check. I've been aware of the misc since about February... just lurked for months before making an account.

[Jason265]

You are forgetting the nomsayin. Most people like having hair, no gyno, fully functing dink.

[SpAgetttt]

This. I can't stand when people tell me they don't have time to work out. Everybody has 45 minutes to work out a few times per week, at the very least. If I can make time juggling school and work to lift 6 days per week, anybody can.

All can be prevented if you're not a fuktard that doesn't know what he's doing.

[lolhey]

they're not content they're just too lazy to make a change.
most people have little to no understanding of nutrition and exercising in general. they think to lose weight they have to eat 800 calories a day and to gain muscle they have to take stuff that must not be named

[Nickdude13]

Cause they think that looks don't matter for men

[DestroyerM]

OP are you talking about a jacked physique or simply an " in-shape " physique?

Jacked. Impressive by misc standards.

[anonymous]

because its hard and not fun.. and beer and pizza taste good.

hell, even 90% of miscers only train because they're delusional retards who still believe that sometime in the third year of training their DYEL bodies will magically morph into Greg Plitt. Once reality sets in they'll give up too.

[BrollicWraith]

honestly, i've wondered this too

i don't get it
