Yes. I started with a home gym and just watch movies and stuff while working out and do a frequent but fairly minimalist routine. It really doesn't feel like much of a time investment because fitness isn't a "lifestyle" or some kind of gay "journey" for me it's just upkeep.
I don't spend much time on shit other people usually do so it's not like I am "losing" time working out compared to the average person. If they waste 4 more hours than me on whatever and I only lift like 6h per week, I still have a lot more time to invest in other things than them. If you put it in perspective it doesn't really seem like a big time commitment, even if it adds up over the years.
The best thing I got out of training was improved willpower and it's not even close.
It got so much easier to force myself to do things I don't "want" because I'm forcing myself to go to an outdoor gym 3 times a week in any weather for almost a year already.
Need to be in 5 places in one day? I don't even think about it.
Drop alcohol? Just stop and don't start again.
Have to plan something extensively like a trip abroad or a job hunt? I got this.
This alone makes it worth it, strength and physique are a bonus. I hate how weak-willed I used to be.
no
I would have been fat, depressed and lonely. Now I am just depressed and lonely.
Did it both natty and then to the next level on gear. I’m going to have to say yes.
Yes
Im curing my mental health issues by getting stronger and healthier. Well worth.

It would have been if I didn’t develop body dysmorphia
Once I started separating myself from the plebeians my life started to improve exponentially

what kind of a chickenshit question is that
Yeah, I was pretty sickly as a child and as a result was not capable of much. I feel much better now as a fit and capable person.
Isn't it a bit frightening now that you're fit knowing you were borderline disabled while thinking living like that is normal?
I mean I was disabled and definitely knew it, I had terrible asthma and an autoimmune disease that nearly blinded me when I was 6. Pretty scary stuff.
You do not have permission to give up
Why do normies think lifting is some obscene time investment? 4 hours per week is all that's needed.
wasn't going to spend it doing anything much better
No, still unemployed and a virgin. I may need to give it more time though. I was out of shape (fat af and dyel) all my life until ~6 months ago.
Theres worse ways you can spend your time
Yeah
