They both support it but don't want me to get "too big" and tell me to stay "toned" by doing low weight high rep exercises because some magazine said so in the 90s. Bless their hearts
Parents love goyslop, and say working out is good but are deep down bummed that I'm always opposed to eating out now. They liked it better when I would eat goyslop with them because it would make them feel less like shit about eating it.
When I first started both my parents asked me if I was going to become one of those “freaks” so I was instantly judged for it. Then my mom came around and was very supportive. My dad constantly calls me too fat or too skinny depending on whether I’m bulking or cutting, and he never pays me a compliment ever. But he’s a hardass in general so I don’t take it personally.
My dad got me into it in the first place. He has way better cardiovascular endurance than I do even at his age, but he's neglected weightlifting for a while and wants to get back into it.
Mum is around "why are you giving yourself hardship? what if you get hurt muh little baby"
pa is around "when I was your age we would lift 500kg while running a marathon for fun" boomer cope
Im 32 btw so that makes it more hilarious. Bless them
Dad will ask if I still try to exercise periodically, he knew I'd try to keep to a schedule when I lived at home, I'm 33 now. My brother doesn't exercise much but I'm pretty sure he likes that I do.

Yeah, my mother always liked going to the gym.
My dad had some health issues related to his weight and lack of inactivity. He likes that I help him out with training programs and asked me to look over his diet plan next week.
My mom asked me for help after she got diagnosed with osteoporosis and the doctor told her that weight lifting would help maintain bone mass/strength. I have her some of my old equipment and taught her how to use it. She lifts on her own most of the time, but I drive to my parent's house on Sundays so we can lift together. She's so much happier now and her doctor says we've managed to completely slow the bone loss she was having.
Took a break from lifting, mom said I looked small.
Tell dad I'm gonna do some roids, doesn't even care as long as I'm smart about it because he understands the israelites are poisoning our water and food with estrogen.
Love me parents, simple as.
Dad supports me never eating out or ordering in.
I can use bougie AF (read organic, or other woowoo) incidents and get 4 dinners out of for less than my classmates get chipotle or CFA. Also more protein.
naw, family is actively trying to stop me from training. buying all the horrid slop, making me feel like shit before going to the gym. they've been a bigger hurdle than just regular motivation to go.
My mom cooks for me whenever i visit, she's skinny at 50 and does mom stuff like yoga and pilates. My dad is a bit fat, but a hiker/outdoorsman type.
When I started lifting my dad was like gee when I was your age I lifted weights but I could never build muscle, and my mom pulled me aside when he walked away and just flatly said "you will build muscle." And then I built muscle
dad wasn't too supportive because he was a hippy and played a lot of sports so it's all supposed to be natural or whatnot. plus he always used to buy me my favorite sugarslop. but if he saw my regiment and lifting philosophy now (strict training discipline, cardio sports on the side and plenty calisthenics coupled with the fact that i am too old for any serious sport), i bet he would change his mind.
my mom is happy for me but kinda misses my skinny boyish body. can't really explain twink death to her.
my 90+ y.o. grandma is the biggest proponent of health and work/improvement and she is very supportive. she understands nutrition and admires my strength
Yes he bought a little home gym for us to use. He bought me a bigger kettlebell when I asked. That bigger kettlebell motivated me to start doing supersets every day. I need to look like a 300 Spartan by summer to reward his paypiggery and to just not be an unfit homosexual.
My mum complains that I’m getting too beefy around my shoulders and back and thinks it’s ugly. She thinks I should build muscle in a way that ‘fits my frame’, and she thinks the whey powder shakes I drink are unhealthy.
Nah my parents have never cared about anything with me really. Never got me into fitness. When I started socially isolating in high school and became miserable and depressed and angry all the time they didn’t really give a shit either. Being miserable in college and telling them how miserable I was and wanting to drop out they didn’t care. Wasted and ruined all my 20s being a pathetic miserable loser and even telling them I want to kill myself, still haven’t cared. In my early 30s now and life is worse than ever and obviously it’s not all their fault that I’m like this but when your parents are the only people in your life and barely give a shit about your problems, who cares about living
Yes, mom at least.
Dad isn't interested at all.
Posting from the gym rn.
My mum nags me if I don't go to the gym...
WTF BASED AF, mine is generaly supportive but not as much holy mother of based.
Does your mom look for a tall slavic bvll?
Extremely based, does she cook good meals for you?
more proof that this board is full of 12 year old morons
Where the frick have you been? Absolute newbies
They both support it but don't want me to get "too big" and tell me to stay "toned" by doing low weight high rep exercises because some magazine said so in the 90s. Bless their hearts
this is what they think "toned" is btw lol
My mom was fitness junkie, so yes. My grandma dispises it since I started growing traps. Dad is irrelevant to it.
Mom supports it. Dad thinks it's a waste of time.
Parents love goyslop, and say working out is good but are deep down bummed that I'm always opposed to eating out now. They liked it better when I would eat goyslop with them because it would make them feel less like shit about eating it.
They enjoyed spending time and enjoying a meal with you.
I’m a 35 year old boomer now, so I haven’t lived with them in years. They were supportive enough, but more or less indifferent to it.
I'm 31 and had to move back in with them. Everyday I want to kill myself.
My mom and sister tell me i have gone too far. Im natty
You will post body correct?
Sigma dad
Might as well
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
My dad got me into it in the first place. He has way better cardiovascular endurance than I do even at his age, but he's neglected weightlifting for a while and wants to get back into it.
Crabs won't post body.

Boomers don't give a frick about lifting.
Yes. They know its all I have going for me.

Yes, and get this, I'm a 34yo NEET. Love you Dad. I will succeed and make grandbabies.

Sucks bro. Keep on truckin. Also chek'd.
Mom has lifted for decade and a half so she's very supportive. Stepdad is short but natty limit so very supportive as well. I dont live with them.
My mom cooks for me whenever i visit, she's skinny at 50 and does mom stuff like yoga and pilates. My dad is a bit fat, but a hiker/outdoorsman type.

Is your mom single?
No my parents are devoted to each other. So I grew up with an unrealistic idea of women and relationships thanks to them.
>anger and hope

My mum said the same kind of stuff to me when I was 18 and starting
