It’s time to clean your house. What have you done today to improve your mental/physical/spiritual wellbeing user?
Modern society is to blame for there being so many people who don't deserve to live. Most people in the West used to harden as they grow on their own, like anywhere else. Now without effort you can remain indefinitely infantile due to our decadence. There were always outliers that became like this throughout history, but now the general masses have succumbed to this condition. There is no longer a rite of passage into adulthood, you can be sheltered and live comfortably. This is de-evolution. Everyone has a dandy-ol time being a degenerate well into their 50s. Constant entertainment, pre-cooked meals and pornography has robbed us of our man-hood.
Realize that to live is to struggle. Really internalize this truth in your being and actions and when possible spread it to others that you care about. In the end the Natural Order will always prevail. Nature is inherently fascist. The modern world is a world that goes completely against nature and the results are telling. It's tearing itself apart. Nevertheless you as an individual can always choose to go against the flow and struggle and persevere while the rest of society rots and withers away. It's not an easy path, but you go on because you know that you are in the right and that in the end you will be vindicated.
The modern world is so self-destructive half the battle is just weathering the storm until the whole edifice has degenerated so much that we can rise and deal the final blow. Live to live your life correctly and that will bring happiness to yourself and those around you.
Stop drinking ALL soda/artificial juices and stop eating junkfood. Stop buying super-market meals and try to grow your own vegetables that aren't infected with pesticides and plastics. Healthy and economic, aswell as peaceful. Till the soil like your great grandfather did. Try to drink mostly water or coffee/tea with little to no sugar added. Purchase meat and produce from local producers that you know personally. A big reason why western men’s sperm count has gotten lower is because we do less outdoor jobs like we used to 50 years ago, which means less sun exposure and less Vitamin D production.
Thus we should grow our own food, get outside more, and not rely on commercial food producers. Over specialization creates a society without purpose for many and too much interdependence. Cities are inherently self-destructive because they are unnatural. Multiple cities reaching more than hundreds of thousands in population did not exist prior to the mid-19th century. The countryside would remain unaffected in the long run if a future collapse occurs. 99% of our history has not been like this with populations concentrated like ants and living like parasites. It’s a very volatile mix and you do not want to be a part of it. There’s a reason liberals are concentrated in these shitholes.

While you don't have to go 110% /innawoods/ right now, it's always good to be in a state of relative independence, and in a small closely knit community. It is such values and societal composition that will survive a collapse and reclaim what is left once the dust has settled. Hopefully the kikes will be gone with it, their degenerate little empire burned to ashes.
Aiden Long
Remember, you don't need all the latest work-out equipment, supplements or drugs to get a naturally fit look. All you need is natural movement and you'll achieve the body you're MEANT to have as the Homo-Sapien male. You have a tiled floor? Jump from one end to the other. A fence outside? Climb over. You have a lot of work on your computer? Put it on a shelf so you have to stand and thus better your posture.
Also, set goals for yourself. See if you can lift sandbags that weigh up to 80kgs eventually. Carry it on your shoulders, throw it as far as you can, attempt to eventually lift it with nothing but a single grip. Get used to being able to punch something aswell. Do NOT be a limp wristed fageutte who would cry if he gets hit. Be able to defend yourself.
Also anons, move out of the cities and learn a trade. Find a nice girl in church, start a family.
While I do use my computer like now, I try not to make it part of who I am am. We are constantly stimulated by technology. This is unnatural since we used to be able to just sit for hours and reflect, now we get anxious if there is no internet connection. To be able to relax and just think is a form of "meditation" I suppose, but it’s nice to do it. I have a garden I go sit in during the late afternoon and just gaze out on the nearby mountains. I don't think about anything in particular, I let my mind wander. Really healthy and fulfilling.
The vast majority of things that modern society has brought us have severe consequences. The only "good" things it has brought are directly or indirectly related with making life painstakingly easy and almost meaningless or just increasing world population to insane levels. The kikes would have us be dependent on them soon; once post-industrial society hits and we become unproductive slaves to the state for our monthly food ration.

The question remains, however, as to what that afterlife is. Equally interesting is the question of where consciousness comes from. And this is where philosophy lets religion take the torch.
I'm really getting bored of those pseudo-sophisticate ultra-materialists that seem to be everywhere these days. It seems funny to me how so many smart people insist that their capacity for logic and reason can somehow reach outside the bounds of our existence, explain it in a meaningful way, even though the very terms and concepts they use to, oh so authoritatively, state "idiot, when you're dead you're dead, see?!" have been invented in minds very much created by the very phenomena they so glibly dismiss as irrelevant. "Consciousness? Pff, a hallucination of the brain! Qualia? Ephemera! There's meat and dirt, and that's IT, and you're a fool, and probably some sort of weirdo, if you think otherwise."
The vehemence with which many of those people defend the idea that they're ultimately nothing, completely irrelevant and futile, makes me think that there's more to it than just pure calculation and cold logic on their part, as most of them claim. People don't get so worked up over things just because they think they're true. Most aren't nearly that noble. They have some sort of emotional stake in the game.

back again with my autistic crusade against tilled gardening. I know new gardeners won't have their own compost, but check with your city's recycling center. they very likely make compost from all the grass and trees and leaves that are brought in, and you might be able to get some for free. if not, it should work decently with regular old potting soil until you get your compost production going how to start a no dig garden youtu.be/Mmv2zGfhG8w why you should do no dig youtu.be/tLHtveS3qJg this guy's youtube channel is pretty great and he has a bunch of books (that I haven't checked out but some of them are on library genesis). he cuts through the bullshit to try and make gardening both as simple and efficient as possible the one thing I find odd is how he doesn't bother with mulch. almost every other "do nothing" or "lazy" gardener (including myself) constantly covers their soil with mulch to help lessen the effect of the sun on the soil and to prevent weeds from growing, but he doesn't bother with that and regularly talks about weeding his garden, so here are two videos on using different mulches for your garden youtu.be/3KwprzjMSxc youtu.be/k1aJOz3mEHI?t=115
what do you mean by lifting ratio? because to me that sounds like "a man should be able to deadlift 3.5 times his bodyweight", but I'm not sure if that's what you're after
Kevin Gray
start with slow run for cardio push ups, squats, pull ups ... you can see

The correct lifting weight to your body weight. Kinda like what you were saying Generally it helps build muscle more efficiently since it utilizes the best calorie intake to burn ratio Cardio burns muscle m8

Anons, is smoking weed always degenerate? I don't use any others stimulants beside smoking a blunt once in a week. It helped me give up on energy drinks, and I used to drink them every day. Now I don't at all. I started smoking recently, can one enjoy weed in moderation without becoming degenerate?

You don't want to have friends who are nothing like you.
My guess is to meet them through political gatherings or through good healthy hobbies.
I am content with not having any friends at the moment because i am unable to find a likeminded person.
>Cardio burns muscle m8 cardio burns your energy reserves, if you have fat , it will burn your fat, if you run out of fat, or the cardio is too intense , it will or may will burn muscles
Adrian Bailey
You have to suck it up and start the conversation yourself If you're in public, as awkward as it may be, just ask to sit down next to someone. Don't say anything at first, just observe without looking like an autist Sometimes they will initiate the conversation but allot of times you have to Public outings are great for this because the tables are usually filled with at least one person Don't constantly try so avoid people Also don't constantly talk about politics. Talk about Normie shit like sports, school etc If you want to start taking about politics go easy. Talk about the news and give a modest opinion.
And in the end you can always cut off the relationship at any time and start over with a different group of people
Gavin Reed
I don't know but it is not a good idea to smoke weed.

Best way to build muscle is going until failure with a full range of motion of whatever muscle you want to grow.
There is no ratio, you need to fail and you need to fail repeatedly. Full range of motion is key as well, doesn't matter that you can curl 60lbs if you do 1/3 of a curl for 4 reps.

I have horrible anxiety and my blood pressure reacts to it. I had an attack today and it read 198 over some other ungodly number. I'm only 26, and have been busting my ass this year and lost 40 pounds, back down to where I need to be. I don't drink and smoke weed to self medicate anymore. After calming down with an ice cold shower I got it down to 113 over 71. Fucking anxiety

Take a workshop in something you are interested in, perhaps a drawing class, maybe something food-related like fermenting. Bicycle building. When you go out, don't be afraid to make small talk. "Hey, it's a nice day, right?" Ask someone for their phone number.

With self improvement it's important to maintain a balance. The pursuit of any one avenue of achievement to excess (money, exercise, etc) can be just as destructive as having no will to succeed, especially if it is at the expense of all enjoyment or levity. Balance begets sustainability. For instance, today I have:
>Lifted >Spent time with my children >Made a few sales >Spent some time painting >Had sex with wife >Took a break to shitpost on Sup Forums
Later I will:
>Do some more work >Cook dinner >Spend evening time with family >Read/write
Balance is the key to long-term growth and improvement. Being productive should feel like work, but it shouldn't feel like torture, that's a sure sign you're doing it wrong.

Do you have a party in mind, broeder?
I'm 21 years old. Just started /SIG/ I already have been practicing historical martial arts for 10 years. Gained weight the past year due to alcoholism. Currently recovering and sobering up. Do have gf, going to dump her for a more..conservative woman.. Started dieting and working out twice a week next to the martial arts. In university studying history so I have little time to cook, but I do so whenever I have the money.
Not a great start, I know.
Grayson Gomez
>What have you done today to improve your mental/physical/spiritual wellbeing user? I went for a walk in the countryside and came home feeling like suicide is the only way out of my situation.
The only real way is to make new friends via existing friends. If you work you may possibly make friends with colleagues. If you're unemployed and have no friends you're, frankly, unlikely to become employed, so you can't even make friends that way.
Oliver Myers
Nothing really wrong with it. Minor health issue and the social stigma that's about it.
If I get come good hash oil the I can work out a lot harder. Not sure why but if I smoke up on some hash oil before a workout I can go a lot harder a lot longer.
Also lets you see things from a different perspective and grounds you spiritually in the right environment.
I recommend yoga when you're stoned it makes for a really great feeling afterwards.
Jose Lewis
perhaps is just lack of discipline then, to build muscle is a daily task, it takes time, if you have a hard time building muscles doing bodyweight( wich may be hard to gain muscle mass) hit the gym and go there at least 5 days a week , you may as well seek for a nutrisionist to improve your meals nutricionally
Brayden Watson
>is smoking weed always degenerate Smoking, yes. Using THC extracts for skin treatment, if you have cataract, mild depressions, treated cancer to counter the chemical jew or menstrual cramps I personally would say it is red pilled, as long as you don't use it in a hedonistic way

I truly envy the men who have good and loyal wives.
As i grow older i find myself to be lonely and missing a family.
But the problem is that i wasted several years of my life being a depressed loser. I am still in my early 20's but my time to improve myself and find a wife is running short.
Adam Green
well the general advice for lifting weights to build muscle is to find out what your one rep max is, so let's say you can deadlift 115kg, and then do 3 sets of 5 at 70-80% of that one rep max. so in this hypothetical situation you'd deadlift 80kg for 5 good reps, rest a couple minutes, then repeat. next time you're at the gym, and after you've done your warmup, if your first set at 80kg feels super easy, you bump it up a bit. once you find yourself easily doing 92kg (which is 80% of your initial one rep max) you test your one rep max again and start over with 70% of it. also if you want to get in cardio without killing your gains, then do high intensity interval training. at its most basic it's sprinting headlong for a bit, then slowly jogging for a bit to cool down, then repeating. good stuff most people will disagree, but I personally think that's fine. weed is objectively not that harmful to the body, and the problem comes from becoming a burnout stoner whose only goal in life is to obtain more weed. if you ever see yourself slipping towards that then I guess you have your answer, but if you're able to keep it to once a week then I see nothing wrong with that. some people here preach no alcohol, and I completely understand that for people who have the urge to drink every night, but I'm fine with having a drink or two every 1-2 weeks and I see no reason to stop doing that

Kava Kava, Valerian, and Ashwaganda supplements may help. Be careful with caffeine, but yes tea is good. Try peppermint tea.

Not true at all I got a job at a state senators office by calling them and asking No connections whatsoever and no experience either I was a freshmen in college and since I left I still feel the benefits from that job coming into my life Stop being so down on yourself, find a giving hobby or a passion The longer you stay idle the more you will think about suicide, I've been there and since then I've bounced back tenfold
Blake Ross
I've just quit smoking, it's been close to three days since my last fag and the cravings are coming and going - nonetheless, it's a hard battle with my own mind. Gym is helping a lot after work, as I'm giving 150% more in order to exhaust myself so that I won't think of smoking. Shit anons, quitting cold turkey after close to 6 years is definitely hard, but I'll fucking try my best to reach that 2 week gap (when the nicotine craving flushes out completely).
It's my first time trying to actually quit and I must say that it's a challenge - especially given the fact that I actually enjoyed smoking up until now.

Hey /Sig/,
I'm looking to return to Christianity. I left after college for years and now my wife and I want to raise our children in the Church.
We grew up Protestant but have been considering joining the Catholic Church. We see Catholics generally have a stronger community, worldwide reach, a strong doctrinal belief despite the left swing in recent years, and it is the catholic church in the literal sense of the word.
What are the major pit falls in this? Has anyone here converted from Protestantism to Catholicism? If so, how did it go?
Do high intesnive cardio - sprinting at maximum speed for a bit, then slowing down - rinse and repeat. Make sure to actually sprint, don't just run - this way you won't affect your overall gains. Do it once a week - you can combine it with abs for example (cardio/abs).
I know mate, both of my grandfathers died due to lung cancer caused by cigs. This is the first time I'm actually trying to stop smoking, as I've mentioned before I particularly liked it a lot. I'll keep on battling with my god damn mind until I flush all of the nicotine cravings out of my body - it's a hard battle but fuck it, enough is enough. Lifting is helping me a lot, thank god for that.

I was lucky to find her when she was young, but I'm young too. Either way, don't worry too much about it bro, self-improvement isn't as hard as everyone makes it out to be.
I think of it as a contract: if I say I'm going to lose 50 pounds in the next three months (reasonable goal) instead of 100 pounds in the next three months (unreasonable goal) then the unspoken agreement is that BECAUSE I've made it attainable I need to have to discipline to actually do it. I'm purposefully giving myself something I know I can achieve, but then holding myself accountable to it.
Just work hard, enjoy the process of self-improvement, and reap the rewards in due time. As Trump says, "there are no unrealistic goals, only unrealistic timeframes."

>How do i into dating and not get nervous around girls (and some ppl)?
start lifting - you'll eventually gain enough confidence in yourself and that will help you a lot - people will notice it and you will be more proactive when talking with them. Also, don't despair - girls will see through that immediately, try to stay as relaxed as possible, without falling into the "autist" stance of relaxation - keep it in the middle. You'll get better with time, try again and again and again and you'll eventually improve.
Read the list in the pic here and mold your life around it.
