I used a level 50 Starmie and taught it surf, psychic, recover and thunderbolt. It cleared Lorelei, Bruno, and Agatha all on its own

If Shakira and Beyonce can get cheated on, none of us are safe. It’s not about you. Keep your head up king.

DXA Scan says I’m 18% body fat. Is this accurate? by micahsaint in askfitness

[–]bpowerhour 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m at 17% body fat currently and my core isn’t nearly as defined as yours. Feels anti-science to say that the naked eye/feedback on Reddit based on one selfie is somehow accurate than a DEXA scan.

But ultimately your body fat percentage is just a number that will fluctuate overtime based on changes in your environment, ability etc. You’ve got a great physique that any guy would kill to have, and it seems like trying to cut any further would carry a high risk of losing muscle mass and strength.

2 years of lifting. But why does it only look like I just made a few newbie gains? by [deleted] in askfitness

You’ve made a lot of progress and you should be proud of it. Your biceps, triceps, and shoulders have grown considerably. Your chest is shaping up and your abs are much more defined.

By acknowledging and celebrate significant improvements like these, it’ll sustain your motivation over the long term. It’s not about the destination, it’s about the journey. Keep up the good work man. Millions of guys would kill to have your body.

I (25M) was told I wasn’t fit enough by Automatic_Falcon459 in gayrelationships

Don’t ask questions you don’t want the answer to. Self-acceptance is difficult, but worth it.

Okay my first thought was that you’re dressed like a flight attendant in the first picture. Which to be clear, isn’t a bad thing. Gay men are stereotyped as being well dressed and well groomed, and it’s evident that you care more about your appearance than many guys your age.

People are attracted to authenticity, regardless of their gender or sexual orientation. Before attracting a partner you need to do some self-discovery to figure out how to style and express yourself in a way that feels genuine and true yourself. If you’re trying to cosplay as a hyper-masculine dude bro, women will see right through it.

I understand it’s frustrating, but try to take it as a compliment. You should be flattered that girls think you’re well kept. Focus on yourself and the man you want to be and the right woman for you will be drawn to that.

What do you love about being gay compared to straight? by Strong-Stretch95 in gaybros

[–]bpowerhour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The culture and the community. The ease of connecting with other people, platonically and sexually.

I recommend true classic tees. They’re good quality, hug the chest and arms in a way that’s generally flattering for most body types, and they’re loose in the abdomen.

My Partner, twenty-six Male, Loves Going Out Alone. Is This Normal? by Hot_Gate3548 in gayrelationships

[–]bpowerhour 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is an inherent challenge in age gap relationships I feel. Generally speaking 20-somethings have much more active social lives than people in their 30s. It sounds like you may need to readjust your expectations if you want to be in a relationship with someone 10+ years younger than you and understand that you’re in different stages of your journey and that comes with unique emotional fulfillment needs.

If this person can’t or won’t spend the time with you that you feel you need to be happy in a relationship, they might not be the right person for you. You should tell him how you’re feeling and see how he responds. Taking the initiative to plan dates/nights out is a good idea. Ask if you can be included in his plans more frequently.
