why did you start lifting? I started lifting because I was really skinny, clothes would always be baggy no matter what, and girls would compare my noodle arms and legs to theirs.

I started lifting because not lifting is what weak homosexual do
I'm fat. Being thin isn't motivating enough. Being fit is.
revenge
Same sort of.
My friend put a knife up to my arm
And said my arm was the same size as the knife
Decided there and then I wanted to get bigger
I was getting embarrassed on the wrestling mat
I wanted to write a newspaper style online blog about cryptids in my town/area of norcal. While thinking about starting it, I realized that I would completely get my shit pushed in by a cryptid/wild animal/person if I were deep in the woods. I started lifting a few days after that, I'm now up nearly 60lbs that skinny insecure little homosexual twink I used to be

Literally the best reason for motivation I've read. Also that sounds interesting af, looking for cryptids and stuff
Im gay and i like going to the gym. There, i said it.
Same reason. Eating more helped more than lifting, though.
>Be skinny freak
>Embarrassed to see my own reflection
>Lift
Still skinny by IST standards but I don't look like an Auschwitz survivor any mor and have to contain the autism not to flex at myself in every mirror.
I was insecure and wanted to improve myself. Now i just like being big and strong so i keep doing it
Went to a physical therapist to correct my back and she was more muscular than me. It was humiliating so I began lifting to exercise away the pity I saw in her eyes whenever she looked at me. Being strong felt good so I stuck with it and loved the confidence I got, and people treated me better. Met her again a few years later to help with some physical therapy and she was miring hard. Got to talking during a session and she asked if I was single. Told her yes to let her down easy, but I really just wasn’t interested in dating a trans woman. She certainly knew a lot about the male body though

i was struggling with panic attacks and lifting made me feel betta
i started out with rehabilitation after osteoporosis and just kind of kept exercising after my condition got better
Insecurity and feelings of inadequacy. Lifting has helped, for sure.
I started lifting because I quit alcohol so I needed something else to fill in the time, also I was a fat frick and didn't want to be a fat frick anymore
Teasing and feeling satisfied
because men are supposed to be strong. And its fun mogging basedboys
I'm trying to slow the decline of my cardiovascular health. Also I'm too weak to perform daily tasks without difficulty, but I don't think there's much improvement to be made in that department.
