MikeShlort;534372 said:Are your ligs reaching fatigue within the first two sets? If not, you definitely need to move up in weight.
If yes, you should still move up in weight:
1) Is your attachment point (where the hanger clamps onto your penis) conditioned enough to support adding more weight?
2) Have you been hanging 6.6lbs for 7 days?
Move up to 7.5lbs if you said yes to 1) and 2)
KingCobra;534401 said:Thanks for your advise.
I don't reach fatigue in the first to sets. I got it in my 5th ot 6th set.
I will be 7 days on thursday and I'm going to move up to 7.7lbs(3,5kg) next thursday.

neognostic;534880 said:Mike, what's your diet like for leaning down? I'm pretty lean but I've got a bit of stomach and fat pad that are very stubborn. Seriously, should I just hit cardio really hard for a couple of months and lift intermediate weights mixed with deadlifts and squats?
MikeShlort;534853 said:Here's a good profile picture that I will use in the future to track changes. I estimate I'm about 7.10" NBPenis EnlargementL. 5.75" MEG for sure.
MikeShlort;534924 said:I leaned down just from diet. I was also sick for three weeks in December, so that helped. But mainly just diet. I've hardly exercised for the majority of the time since I've been getting lean.
When I was exercising, I was just doing regular lifting then I would do interval training. I'd jog for 2 min, then sprint for 1 min, repeat. I'd do that for 10-20 minutes. That helped a lot. Also I stopped all the protein shakes except for just one after workout.
I've heard the expression "abs are made in the kitchen" from a dude who is in his 40s or 50s and jacked. It's really quite true. Eating properly will get you looking fit, then adding the weight lifting, stomach work and cardio on top just cuts you up. I recently started going to the gym again and I am looking nice after a workout.
The key is really figuring out when to eat, how much to eat and when not to eat.
I got the info on what to eat from like 4 websites. I will give you the links tomorrow. I basically listened to what it said for all meals: no added sugars, preservatives etc. for ex, if you eat yogurt, add your own fruit and buy all natural 0% fat yogurt.
- Lean meats - chicken, turkey, beef, fish (i eat salmon and tuna)
- Raw fruits and vegetables
- Nuts
- Lots of water
- Fish oils with each meal
- If you're going to eat dairy, eat low fat dairy
- Eggs are great - the bullshit about the yolk being high in cholesterol is bullshit. It's good cholesterol. I eat two eggs every morning. I am lean as fuck. You can research for yourself but all the information I've found states that eating whole eggs is fine. No sense just eating the whites.
- Avoid processed foods, including lunch meats. Avoid things with added sugars, preservatives. Read the labels. The less ingredients, the better. Shit you can't pronounce as ingredients, avoid.
- Avoid bread and wheat. Oatmeal is cool though. Bigger oats = better.
When I was cycling 50 km 2-4 days a week I was looking cut as fuck. You can see how I looked in the picture from Dec. 2011. I have even more definition in my stomach now. Once I start doing ab exercises and lifting heavier, I suspect I will be cut up very nicely. My approach for lifting will be very different now. Before I would just gorge myself with food and lift each day but I wasn't able to keep up with all the calories I was taking it, yet I still would lose size rapidly if I missed a couple workouts.
The beauty with eating right is I've maybe worked out between 5-10 times since early December and the whole time I've looked like a jeans model (from the neck down).
To be fair, I am naturally lean (lean-kinda fat body type). I can easily lose weight. I have small bones and I am 6 feet tall, so I am not stocky and put on weight easily. But I've never really had abs like I do now.
I was 16.9% body fat, 181 lbs Oct 2012. On Jan 31, 2013 I was 14.3% body fat, 166 lbs. Of that 15 lbs lost, 7.2lbs was fat. Not too bad considering that was 80% due to diet alone.
I believe I'd need supplements (legal or otherwise) to get below 13-14% body fat.
I'll get you those links soon.

I couldn't fucking sleep and that R3dd1t page powersnake posted in another thread was aimed at my head worse than a crack relapse so I just jerked off to it. Fuck. So much for being able to stay hard in missionary for another month at least.
The good news is I am definitely 7.25" NBPenis EnlargementL when I'm fully aroused.

There will always be hot young sluts. And thank God for that!
Cultivate abundance. They are everywhere.
MikeShlort;535365 said:It seems impossible to get a foot in the door if you aren't part of their social circle. The hot ones are always the intelligent ones who go to university. They stick to their social circles and shun guys who are older and less educated. I am pursuing a career in a trade and I just don't see how I will come in contact with the type of girls I am attracted to. The ones at my current work judge me because I am older and did not go to university.
Not only that, it is a social stigma to be in your mid-late 20s and be going to the bars that the university crowd goes to. Everything is very segregated by age here. They refer to it as "the older crowd" or "the younger crowd". It's a downer because I don't think I will ever be as attracted to women in their 30s as I am to women in their early 20s. Those are the ones I want.
Any thoughts?

hepcat;535437 said:I found that grazing caused me to gain weight as I find when I eat a large lunch sometimes I can go the rest of the day without eating anything.
hepcat;535447 said:I find that no matter what or when I eat I always look the same. The only thing that makes me look thinner is eating as little as possible, which includes skipping meals. I'm not saying I'm Mr. Fit because I'm far from it. I'm pretty lean but can't seem to get rid of my gut (shitty family genetics). It drives me crazy. I'm not fat but more skinny fat if you will. Basically, it looks like I've got a beer gut. Even when I lose weight I have the same figure just a smaller version of it. Oh yeah, fucking cock sluts!
hepcat;535521 said:I forgot to mention my gut started when I began taking psych meds, before that I was just skinny. The cocktail of meds is up to 7 different types. It makes me feel hopeless about being able to get rid of it. I hope your interval training suggestion can make a dent. I don't want to stop taking my meds cause they help, but looking out of shape even though I eat good and go to the gym makes me depressed. Ah, the ebb and flow.

You might want to not give a fuck about social circles, judgement from females, social stigma, segregation, older vs. younger.
You could work on your attraction. You could work on your seduction skills.
Sooner or later you will walk through the world without apology for being a man, for being Mike and for taking what you want.
Cheers.
hepcat;535651 said:I do cognitive behavioral therapy. It helps to a degree with depression but more so with my OCD, which is very severe. The behavioral aspect of the treatment is done through Exposure Response Prevention (ERP), where you must confront your issues head on to an extreme. It will cause extreme anxiety but eventually it fades and allows you to overcome said fear, compulsion, or obsessions (or at least it's supposed to). It works to a certain extent, especially when in an inpatient facility, but it is hard to maintain when you're on your own. ERP's for depression are pretty retarded. So I do more talk therapy with my shrink.
Anyway, what is this psycohanalysis treatment you speak of? How is it different than other forms of treatment?
MikeShlort;536251 said:This is my thread so not to worry about hijacking.
I appreciate the advice, but it's not the approach I am having trouble wrapping my mind around.
It's the chances to encounter women. In high school, they were there. You know them from school, when you go to parties is when you get the chance to fool around with them. How do you ever get that chance when you are no longer in school and never go to any parties? Girls don't want to be picked up at a bar when they're pushing 30, or if they're young and the guy is in his mid 20s.
I just can't figure out how I would even come into contact with girls. My work is the same thing. The girls are college aged. The only way for me to have a chance with any of them is to go to the parties they go to but I don't get that opportunity.
It seems like it's less about looks and the way you carry yourself and more about social status and having a personality that allows you to be popular and have many acquaintances.
I can't figure out this. I will never have the personality to be popular, and the older I get, the less opportunities I have to have sex with women are. No school, no parties, no friends, no social connection = no women. I can lift weights all I want and make my dick large and look great but that doesn't matter because no girl wants to give it up to a stranger, a nobody. You go to a bar alone, they will immediately ask who you're with. You say you're by yourself, you lose. That's a red flag to them, a turn off. They see you as a loser just trying to pick up and then you lose.
Not sure how I can find a way around it. I always try to figure it out in my head and I always come to the same result - the older I get, the more disconnected from society I get, the less chances to meet females. I really can't see any logical way I'd be able to meet the type of female I'm interested in other than going to college or renting a room with college students and that is too drastic, too pathetic.
Any ideas?
