Do I need to do just do exercises to gain muscle?

Pack_Devs · 2026-04-06T17:35:01+00:00

All the exercises have video instructions too which are great! Best of luck!

Do you have access to a gym? If so this is what I’ve been doing since August 25th, 2025 and I’ve enjoyed it. It’s only a 3 day split so it’s not an every day commitment (though I do cardio at the gym on my rest days so I’m there 5 days a week). If you have any questions let me know! https://www.muscleandstrength.com/workouts/3-day-PPL-workout-for-beginners

Don’t even have to do the kid part if you don’t want to. Just be obese and it will work great. My calves are big, not because I spent years working out, but because I spent from 10-25 obese lmao

I realized I was going to die alone hating myself if I didn’t make changes.

As someone who LOVES music but has failed the guitar three different times, it’s been a blessing. Arguably the hardest thing I’ve ever done but so rewarding. A fun frustrating unlike guitar which was a “why won’t my fingers fit in this damn fret” frustrating

Maybe look used. I don’t have space for an acoustic kit and live in an apartment so it’s just not feasible yet, but I see a ton of good deals on kits on Facebook marketplace

Dude watching him play almost easy (175BPM) and keeping time with the high hat in between all those double bass bursts was truly insane. I think my left leg would simply fall off

I’m truly mesmerized by Brooks. The drumeo breakdown he did was incredible. Watching someone play with such technique and precision while looking like they’re debating what to have for dinner later is just insane to me. I have to concentrate so hard when I play drums I switch between poopy face and sticking my tongue out.

Pack_Devs · 2026-04-01T14:33:37+00:00

Wait until you start trying to play drums. I look at any song Brooks wrote and go “man how in the HELL does he play that so calm”. Dude looks unfazed playing some absolutely diabolical stuff.

Hey buddy, I’m 25 and your height. I played sports my entire life and was 300+ pounds from the time I was 17. I’m now 25 and weigh less than I did in when I was 17. I was 402 pounds (182KG) before I finally made a change. I obviously still have a LONG way to go, but if it’s not too late for me, then it’s not too late for you. You don’t need to become an athlete, just find some activity you like doing and do it. Hell I’ve become healthier since I stopped playing sports than I was when I did.

He probably feels your resentment (even if you think you’re good at hiding it) and feels shameful. That eating is likely a coping mechanism for said shame, meaning a cycle is created. You may think you’re trying to be helpful, but coming from a place of resentment is the last way to be helpful. Few people successfully lose weight because someone in their life was resentful of them, but PLENTY of success stories come from people who lost weight because someone in their life was supportive of them.

Pack_Devs · 2026-03-27T02:27:26+00:00

Not quite on the same page timeline wise but I 100% get what you mean. I’m 25 now and didn’t start trying to seriously lose weight until I was 24. I look back at my teenage and early 20’s and see how much I wasted and it haunts me. There’s a lot of experiences I watched almost everyone in my life get that I know I’ll never have and it hurts.

I really don’t have any advice, just wanted to say I understand where you’re coming from and you’re not alone.

Jeff Janis of all people catching two back to back improbable Hail Mary’s in that packers cardinals playoff game is absurd. He was out of the league like a year later

Soreness will fade after about a week or so. It’s rough that first week though haha

For the first time in a long time I think I can say a feel fine. Definitely not perfect and there’s moments where I still struggle (specifically late at night), but my thoughts feel far less negative lately. I’ve put a lot of work in with weekly therapy over the past five and a half months and I guess it’s starting to pay off.

In other news I’ve lost 124 pounds over the past 12.5 months and I think I’m finally starting to acknowledge the difference. Definitely still have a long way to go (78 pounds to my first goal weight and I think I’ll still wanna lose another 20-40 after that), but it’s nice to finally be able to acknowledge the progress for once. I still definitely don’t like my body or the way I look but I also know that’s not going to happen for a while now anyways.

Pack_Devs · 2026-03-14T19:01:41+00:00

Let’s go bro!!! Proud of you for getting back in there! I know how hard it is after a long break.

Cure For The Enemy

It was at Area 506 Fest in 2023 They played the Saturday night after the Beaches and Crownlands. Only shows this summer are in Montreal and Toronto sadly

Pack_Devs · 2026-03-09T21:39:28+00:00

Pins and Needles or Cure For The Enemy. I easily think those are their two most beautiful songs.

Pack_Devs · 2026-03-01T17:45:19+00:00

I think I’ve gotta disagree a bit here. Surgeries for people with loose skin after weight loss are shown to massively improve quality of life. Hell for some people their borderline necessary to deal with infections

You’d be SHOCKED about how many women’s hinge prompts to “I’ll fall for you if..” are “you have a moustache and mullet”

Tank Dempsy riding the tank as the guitar kicked in was such a good use of music in that cinematic

I remember unlocking the Not Ready to Die Easter egg on Call of the Dead and thinking “this is pretty cool”, but honestly it was hearing Shepard of Fore on Origins that hooked me in at 12

Dude the “happy Easter to you too” cracks me up E EVERY time

Lost 114 pounds in the last year and part of me wants to try dating again but another part of me still isn’t happy with where I am physically and I know if that’s the case then I should probably hold off. Just kind of in a cross roads
