How do you guys feel overall about your progress this year?
I feel pretty good, at this time last year I was 250 and I'm currently at 200, 50 pounds in a year is pretty good. I technically lost 65 pounds but that's only because I gained then lost 15 pounds in April after an injury meant I couldn't go to the gym and I had to stay home all day.
I definitely could have done better but overall I'm still proud. People at work are starting to notice my weight loss and complimenting me. My boxing has also improved, I'm curently only boxing at home for fun/exercise but once I get in better shape will join a boxing gym

Pretty decent.
Lost ~20kg, got closer to my goal of OHP 100kg (70kg -> 90kg), improved cardio alot (rowing 5k down to 18:20).
Missed all goals by a c**thair due to injury but wagmi sooner or later.
I fell off most fitness stuff so I'm getting back to it ASAP. Works been kicking my ass with the holiday season so after Christmas I'm getting after it
I'm over 25 so I've only been regressing because of age. My hair has fallen off, my skin is wrinkly and my memory doesn't work. My dick has now stopped working as well and I have lost significant muscle mass. Being 27 sucks ass.
Dude I'm only 2 years older than you and I have none of those problems despite being fat. I think you're just really unhealthy. Do you get enough sleep? Are you a heavy drinker? Drugs? How about junk food intake?
Oh yeah? Well I'm 29, smoke 2 packs of heavy tar gays a day, drink a bottle of whiskey when I wake up and brush my teeth with absinthe. I take coke and speed all day and shoot heroin to mellow in the evening before falling asleep at 6 am and getting a half hours shuteye before waking to start again. I have been making so much strength gains that I can now bench a small car and my wiener is constantly hard as a rock
Yeah, well I'm 45 and a certified nonfunctional alcoholic. I inject heroin into my eyeball for breakfast (2am) before screaming into an empty metal bucket for an hour, which is both my only exercise and the closest thing I have to human contact. Even so I am at my all time peak of physical fitness, and have gained 50lbs of lean muscle this year despite taking *catabolic* steroids to encourage dystrophy. My amateur MMA record stands at 33-1-0, all by knockout, including my one and only loss where I self-KOed through excessive windmilling. My penis has grown half an inch a year for the last twenty four consecutive years and is in a permanent state of ischemic priapism and involuntary ejaculation. Every night I go to bed at 3am, an hour after I'm due to wake up, and snort cocaine to bring my adrenaline levels down.
Genuinely more believable than balding demoralization gay posts
t. alcoholic 37 year old that’s jacked af and has exceptional cardio
Why can't zoomers and newfriends simply stop biting every bait they see? Do they realize you're not legally required to reply to every provocative post?
I’m 27, heavy drug user, smoker, I eat fast food 3 times per day, and I sleep 2-4hrs per day. I am still making strength gains in the gym. Are you sure you’re trying?
Also wanted to mention the only thing you said that I relate to is my penis doesn’t work but that’s because of my heavy drug use and severe porn addiction (jack off for average 2h per day every day for 15 years)
What's your goon cave look like?
minimalistic crack den. I have no furniture beyond a bed and a desk. Zero decor whatsoever. All my things are spilling out of brown moving boxes haphazardly sprawled out on the floor. There are clothes piles and garbage and dirty dishes and drug paraphernalia covering most parts of the floor and all of my kitchen counters including the stovetop except for a cutting board that I prep food on and one element on the stove that I keep free for use. I finally got a garbage can recently: for years I would just throw trash on the floor, I am still adjusting to this and still throw garbage on the floor 50% of the time out of habit. About once per month when the smell gets bad enough I collect all the garbage and throw it out, and usually do a laundry load and dishwasher load as well. My bed contains a crusty light blue shirt that I use as a cum rag which I usually throw out and replace with a random one of my old shirts every month or so.
I could go on. None of this is a lie and this was just off the top of my head, my life gets so much more disgusting. The craziest part is I work a high-paying job in tech and present as a normal human being in public but when I’m alone I feel like a schizophrenic animal with the way I live.
>I work a high-paying job in tech
>and present as a normal human being in public
Choose one.
>I work a high-paying job in tech and present as a normal human being in public
You had me until here, gr8b8
I’m 10 years older than you and besides receding hairline everything is fine. You’re aging prematurely, check your lifestyle.
OP I’m in the best shape I’ve ever been since I started lifting almost 18 months ago. For the first time in my life I’m consistently lifting and sticking with it. This year lifting went from a chore sometimes and a routine that I had to try hard to keep to something that is an important part of my life and almost automatic.
I’m looking forward to what 2024 brings and my next step is upping my nutrition game and focussing on sleep hygiene.
That doesn't make sense
You're a b***h
T. Balding's my only problem, 28
homie im 33 skinny fat and barely work out and none of those are an issue for me, get ur vitamin levels checked or some shit, your dick SHOULD NOT be dead at 27, what the frick
>im 33 skinny fat and barely work out
disgusting serf
Damn, that’s sad man. I’m 45yo and none of that shit ever happened to me.
By the way, why the hell so many young dudes with penis problems??
They have one at home that can fix it for them
Addiction to porn, jerking off multiple times a day, endocrine disruptors in every aspect of life. I had porn induced ED when I was 18 lol couldn’t frick my first girlfriend it was sad. She would send me nudes and I’d jerk my soft dick to them. I’m 30 now with rock hard boners though no supplements or anything like that definitely don’t need viagra
You shouldn’t be hitting the wall that hard. See a doctor.
Consider moving. Your house might have a fricking radon leak or something.
Uuuh, anon...i think there is plutonium somewhere in your room
u fooking wot m8
I'm 39 and I only starting having thinning hair and wrinkles and shit come around at like post 35 or so
dick still works fine tho and my memory is as good as ever
really just thinning, graying hair and my skin is starting to show wrinkles and not have that youthful elasticity but everything else is same old same old as ever since I were a lad
Bulked from 80kg to 88kg then cut back down to 83kg. Hey I'll take it
Overall happy!
- Started off 170lbs @ 5’8”, fat aa frick
- Lost 35lbs from diet + hiking, 135lbs
- Took 2mo off from fitness by accident due to reaching my cut goal and life getting super messy, passively got back to 145lbs
- Lifting and gentle bulking this past 3mo, 150lbs
On the one hand it feels awesome to finally be seeing strength and size gains after that long cut.
But I can really feel how those 2mo off hurt my progress. I have an extra 10lbs of fat on me that I can see in my face and midsection and I hate it. My original plan was to diet down to emaciation mode, which I did, and then build muscle, but I kinda fricked it up. Now I am building muscle but still have visibly obvious fat. It haunts me that I look a lot worse than I could rn if I had been more disciplined and stuck to my plan.
But oh well, for now we bulk. Visuals are secondary anyway, I am happy to be getting stronger and more functional. I thank God after every workout since every session is a blessing. I am very happy to be back in the gym.
>moved states and got my own place for the first time
>im a highly valued person at work
>strength is highest it’s been since a major surgery decimated my gains
>weight is pretty much the same as this point last year (5’11” 205) so overweight but not disgustingly fat
>haven’t moved on from ex and only gotten laid twice this year albeit with minimal effort on my side
I'm fricking solid
6 mos natty now
I'm solid, an absolute unit
>learn to drive
>get a car
>reached ottermode and put on lots of lean mass
>moved back with mom to save money for college, help her financially and keep her company
>toned down on my drug usage, only smoke weed once a week and occasionally do ket
>made and lost friends, realized I enjoy solitude a lot more and that friends are p much useless
>working construction, hard but chill and very nice people
Next year I want to continue the same routine; make more money, reach my fitness goals and hopefully get a gf 🙂
>and hopefully get a gf
I have lost about 15 kgs and managed to do pull-ups for the first time in my life. Currently can do 4 or 5 of them which feels pretty good. Will also probably try 1x 130kg bench press before the end of the year, current record is 2x 125kg so it should be possible.
Pretty damn good, 6’1 250lbs at the start of the year, got fat from switching to a sedentary job from manual labor. Cut down to 180, bulked back to 230, cutting again now. Hitting 1/2/3/3 working on getting that 4 pl8 diddly now. Finally getting to weighted dips and pull ups, and I’m starting to see the outline of my abs, excited to get bf low enough to see what I’m working with. WAGMI brothers.
2023 was a b***h of a year that forcibly derailed me until the start of October. Consistent 5 days a week since then. All things considered I'd have to say poor progress. It is what it is.
I've had a shit year and my consistency at the gym have been horrible. HOWEVER, I don't seem to have actually lost any progress and my body still looks good which feels like a net win.
Goals
>Ran 10km again after years
>Consistently trained all year
>Did my first muscle up
>Achieved better physique at 76kg than I've ever had at lower or higher weights
I'd say its pretty good. I'll be more ambitious this 2024 though.
started my IST journey in September and I'm pretty happy with overall progress
trying to get my ohp to 40kg (35kg x6 rn)
The good thing is that I tried different things. The bad thing is that I wasn't consistent. Now I've finally found things I want to be consistent with (running + dumbbells) and I'm going to add on tennis and/or grappling. I've always wanted to do too many things so now I'm just going to divide the year into different seasons. I wish I had figured this out sooner, but I'm really happy I can jog for an hour now.
I gained and lost weight this year but I'm ending the year 6 pounds heavier with about the same bf % which is a start but I fricked up eating big time and spun my wheels. I am trying to bulk slowly to try and achieve full green man status by sometime next year.
Man wtf happened to wojak.
I'm net +15lbs which sucks because I'm pretty fat.
I started actually lifting which is cool.
I can put out decent numbers for only having been lifting a month so I think I have good potential.
So overall positive. Goal for next year is hitting like 250 squat and then cut.
I hit a 405 squat a month ago. I didn't hit my 315 bench goal this year but gor relatively close (285). Next year is about slimming down. Not really looking forward to being constantly hungry.
I had a kid,cycled off creatine for the first time in years and got my strength to rebound
Stayed lean without trying and still look huge with a pump
Im getting back on creatine hoping to break my PRs 3+/4/5+ but i have a weird feeling that won't happen until I get a home gym
>cycle off creatine
Why? Only ever seen people say you just take it daily until you die.
Motherfricker creatine isnt steroids, stop talking about it like you're some hardcore tough guy who had to get off the needle because of le kids. It's a basic fricking supplement just like vitamins moron.
> hurr YEAH BRO I UGH HAD TO CYCLE OFF VITAMIN C.... JUST TOO MANY RESPONSIBILITIES, COULDNT KEEP PINNING THOSE GUMMY BEARS NO MORE...
Fricking embarrassing autismo.
Dude, shut the frick up. You trying to get the thread deleted? No source talk, idiot.
I remember when I just started doing gummy bears... My deadlift went up by 200lbs in a month, felt like I could kill anybody with my bear arms. Soon after my dick stopped working and I lost all of my hair and got cancer. Vitamins are no joke
>at this time last year I was 250 and I'm currently at 200
that's fricking incredible, frickin a man good work. Get into a gym, for that boxing man, boxing at home is like fricking with the rubber on. You gotta do yourself the service of working with people bigger and stronger than you, you'll see.
>How do you guys feel overall about your progress this year?
great. I feel great. I took my rock climbing outside and did a 120 foot send. I got my incline press from 155 to 225 for reps, and I learned how to do a tucked planche and hold it for 20 seconds. Extremely productive summer.
best year yet. my cut was great and I got the most compliments I ever got within a year. now it's time for mass 🙂
Best year ever. I've lost close to 50 pounds. All my lifts are slightly higher. Got up to 50 miles run in a week. Got a new GF I actually like.
Still a lot more work to do. I'm 41, by the way.

There's this black girl at my gym. Very dark black skin, but looks like this Wojack black girl. Very cute. Glasses. Huge breasts on an otherwise slim to average frame. Looks very classy. I dont think she has "good" hair, which means she has a tough time of it. I never see any of the nerds, gays twinks or broccoli heads talking to her.
I feel bad for her. She looks sweet and smart.
I think she has one of those real pink on the inside pussies.
She doesn't. It smells horrible too, just get within 3 feet and you'll catch whiff of her unwashed snatch then projectile vomit on her.
This is nt true. I've fricked a few and they smelled fine. The hair on the top of the head thing is regrettable, because some of them were very sweet, smart girls. But they dont have hair. Their pussies were totally normal.
Don't all black gurls have fake hair like wigs they just put on their heads
There's only one black girl at my gym. Like 5'5-6" slender frame but I've seen her squat 3pl8. Very muscular very low body fat percent for a woman.
In under a year that I started going to the gym after doing eh tier home workouts with dumbbells I:
> gained around 6 kilos of which most or almost all is muscle.
> Got deadlift that I never done before to 132.5 kg for 5
> Got barbell squat that I never done before to 95kg for 5
> Got OHP to 45kg for 5
> Got bench to 75kg for 5
> started regularly doing cardio and it improved a lot.
Main thing would be eating more consistently: at least 4 meals of 40 protein each. As is I'm constantly gaining weight for a day or two then losing then gaining and over the months mostly I gain but sometimes I lose. While it still works and keeps me from getting too fat it's not the most efficient way to do it.
Weight and height?
5'10, went from ~72kg to ~78kg
Ngl those are vaguely depressing numbers. I'm 5'11", 195lbs, just started lifting.
That's how it works once you're out of the beginner stage kiddo. Especially when you're doing 1 hour of hard cardio 4-5 days a week.
Keep in mind also that I'm not training for strength, just for hypertrophy
Pretty good. I hoped for more gains on my squat and deadlift but struggled with an injury for 4 months and it still hasn't fully recovered. As far as stats go
Squat 182.5kg -> 195-202.5kg (idk didn't test it yet)
Bench 95kg -> 127.5kg (really happy with the progress on bench)
Deadlift 190kg -> 207.5kg
Ohp 72.5kg -> 85kg (didn't focus on it much)
Bw 92kg -> 96kg
Okay considering how much time my studies have taken. Or energy more so than time.
>weightlifting pr in january
>bench pr in april
>weightlifting pr in september
>started new sport in october and been getting all kinds of prs
next year I'll get bunch of running prs
>boxing at home
Unless you had prior training you are flailing like a moron and learning bad habits. Stop training at home if you actually want to learn.
Just go sign up at the gym, nobody care that you’re fat
I feel like I stagnated a bit, I did get new peaks on my lifts but then I couldn't lift that heavy anymore and I had to take a step back
I started at 195, I'm now 192. Not nearly the progress I hoped for but I didn't get any fatter so I guess it could be worse.
On the plus side, my financial gains have been great and career is going well. Now I just gotta find one of those girls who cares more about a bank account than she does about abs.
