there are no 60 year old gay men at my gym and if there were they probably not interested in " hanging out" i can't en get one person to go to a movie.
and the 25?year old straight boys are not interested in hanging out with old gay men.
if i could find someone to hang out with i wouldn't be at the movies alone every week.
i have a completely different situation than all of you. i know you can't understand it. i literally do not have ONE friend locally. not one. ( except my fwb who did love to train with but who isn't avail)
are you suggesting g i just what... walk up to some some random muscle bros and ask them to be friends l that's not a thing that happens here.
German volume training is a good option
bro we're here to motivate you every day you post
i was just the impression that you are from LA for some reason so you'd know how difficult it is to connect. and the bay area is much worse.
no one here is looking for a new friend .
sure g the month while i have PT i will get in the habit of doing one extra day on planet on my own so that when the pt ends hopefully i keep momentum keep in mind i've always ultimately failed here.@SFDom415 maintain 60 is good and prepping some meal prep would be perfect
having a local friend who lifts would be great but i dont have a local friend at all.
if i lived in the city it might be possible but not here. like i said i dont even have anyone to see a movie with.
That's WHY i see my trainer so i have a friend for one hour to talk to. we talk about everything
i wish one of you lived here .
it actually works and i get results. i hate doing it. but it works. after 5 supersets i want to stop . Dan forces me through the other five sets. while insist he miscounted
actually right now from anxiety i'm having trouble eating. i'm not only not getting enough protein but hardly eating at all. my protein is under 50 g per day . i only eat a few bites of food a few times a day. today i've had two beef patties two slices of bread and a serving of coleslaw a pint of iced tea and no water and it's 730p
training is T W F this week.
training is T W F this week.
Just gotta find a way to keep the motivation without having a trainer.
yes well it's been a fail every time for 40 years so i'll try again. if i can commit to showing up ( that's the hard part) even a half assed work out is better than no work out the problem is i just don't enjoy it.
sad as it is i literally sing up for an app just to find friends that's how desperate it is around here.
maybe i'll get li my and meet someone i like who also lifts and who's avail on my sked.
fingers crossed.
Maybe try an entire different type of training. It could be more interesting and keep things fun. At least switch up the exercises you have been doing or any other changes.
ina figured out two things the helped. at last when i was doing one solo day in addition to.@SFDom415 you're not failing, not trying is failing, at least you pushing hard and trying
1. headphones and classic disco
the music is very positive and happy and tunes out the bad gym music and all the people. i just bop in my 1978 world. that removes the anxiety.
2. once i'm in my own world go really slow. just work out really slow sit around take my time and think it through but, that puts me at 2 hours which is to long.
going to the gym is like going to the dentist for a root canal. and the headphones and the tuning out is like the Novocain and nitros oxide.. generally wind up doing a whole body pump rather than two specific muscle groups.
it looks like this
row 5 min
4 sets of 10 or 12 on everything
some shoulder and chest and back pushing and pulling
some curls some leg press leg ext and some abdictor machine
some ab swing machine
some calf machine a couple sets of 20
everything 3/4 sets of -10/12 reps with light to moderate weight
oh and i do the assisted pull up thing.
oh yeh and the tricep rope things gotta do those.
i just need fit all that into an hour. 3x week.
i just really like Dan he's really great . and like me bipolar and a d d and super knowledgeab about it so he's alway telling me about dopamine and all that and what causes what reaction and he tells me about girls he gets and i tell him about the bkys i get and i keep
him supplied with tadapox. it's nice
Anyway one day at a time.
oh and inwas headed to the beach trails to walk and get some good pics cuz it so warm an sunny but by the time i got there late ... the damn fog had come in. so walked around the castro in my short shorts and no shirt instead and took some pics over there .

finally tried this place. we avoid eating in the castro it's often mediocre and more about location than food. but this place isn't bad. i always judge by the " adobada " good amount of meat for 3.50 each. ( 3.50 for a taco is a good deal in sf.)
and they put some grilled pineapple on the pork.
the salsas are good too. friendly staff.
oh wait this isn't yelp. where am i?
couple shots of the massive afternoon fog rolling in
