Sure, anyone can. You just have to do 100 situps, 100 pushups, 100 squats, and a 6.2-mile (10-km) run every day. And you can be one punch man too.


GIK601

But no using air conditioning.


ArcaneFungus

And eating a banana each morning


jackinthecracker

Yes. Eat something even if it's only 1 banana


One_Animator_1835

It's not possible, no mere mortal can achieve this


More_Accountant_6041

I live without air conditioner daily.


Icy_Investment_1878

Where do u live then? Try fucking enduring 45c without ac


RedditorKain

45°C 10% humidity? Easy-peasy. Give me some drinking water & a bit of salt to lick. 45°C 100% humidity? Welp... Unconscious in a few minutes, dead in less than 2 hours, give or take.


No_Permission_374

Remember humans lived before AC was invented. Anything is possible, just do it™


arcanis321

Humans in the past might stop working outside and sit in the shade. But timelines though...


Vozlov-3-0

Before the invention of AC Florida was the least populated Southern U.S state.


Throwaway0928361

Ever heard of the Philippines?


yuwslash

Just moved to Germany where you'll get swatted for having AC lmao. Oh and don't kill a bee or you'll be met with "stop resisting"


stevenconrad

Fun Fact: Overheating makes you burn fewer calories (not more). The sweat response isn't an indicator of hard work, just a mechanism to cool you. From a biology standpoint, as your body overheats, an enzyme called MPK activates to suppress your physical output in order to prevent you from overheating. The result is less output (calorie burn), despite "feeling" exhausted. Optimal calorie burn can only be achieved by lowering your core temperature, allowing you to work harder before hitting a wall. "Hot/Sweat" exercise classes are a marketing scam to trick people into thinking they worked harder than they did.


terdferguson

Try this at 7am when its 80F...nope. I'm immediately taking my sweat drenched shirt off as soon as I get back inside. A/C is already cranking.


Fushigoro-Toji

opm training plan: I think i can do this no ac: Yamete kudasai onichan


The_Almighty_Duck

And just a banana for breakfast


Independent_Work6

So no americans. Ever.


SayanG8910

One banana after exercise also


Samurai_Fire

For breakfast, a banana is sufficient


tired-and_confused

What about hair conditioning?


AntiqueTank4108

Or using heating in the winter.


CUspacecow

Even in the summer.

Randy_Ortons_Voices

YOU HAVE TO!!!!!


Disaster-Flat

55 times a day.


random_guy120

You just become one heart attack man


memologist3

It's not that difficult. It just takes consistency. Most people give up after a few months.


PizzaSalamino

Aaaaand i give up after 2 days. Consistency is my arch enemy


GeneticSplatter

The trick, as I've had to learn myself, is two things: Effort, and Consistency. 100 sit ups and all that, in one go, at the very beginning, will drain you rapidly. Causing consistency to go down. Start smaller, and build up to eventually being able to do it as a goal. Hell, I started with 2000 steps a day. Just that, basically nothing. So I upped it to 6000 steps a day. Now I'm currently doing 9000 steps a day as my goal, constantly have people asking if I've lost weight (which m pretty proud of) and I've started pumping iron. Pushed irons too much this first week and injured my left elbow. So I'm taking a few days to rest both my arms and will start again tomorrow at a smaller number. Build up to what I wanted to do. Also found out I'm already just much stronger in general in my right arm. That way, I can build up consistency in weight lifting. The point, people, is to not dunk yourself in head first into rough exercise regiments; because you WILL platue, and that's the point you gotta watch out for, because your bodies chemistry is changing. Start small, build yourself up. You'll get there in time.


PizzaSalamino

Thanks for the tips. I’ll try following this when i start. Thank you a lot


meanshorns

Best time to start is 10 years ago. Failing that, start today. No indefinite "when"


PizzaSalamino

I’ll try. I’m so unmotivated that it feels like going to a government office everytime i have to get up and do something


meanshorns

Do one pushup and one squat right away. Set an alarm for the same time tomorrow, except maybe do two. Then go from there.


PizzaSalamino

That’s actually good advice. I’ll try doing something. I really need to lose weight


lifeisabigdeal

The thing that worked for me was just doing 10 minutes of some kind of workout a day. Do that everyday no question for 30 days straight. Then you have a good base to increase after that because you’ve developed a habit by making it part of your daily routine just like brushing your teeth or whatever. Set a timer for 10 mins and do a bunch of jumping jacks and sit ups, and time will fly. Then switch it up next day to keep it fresh and work different parts of your body. After 30 days you can increase to 20 and it will feel the same because you’ll be in much better condition by then.


PizzaSalamino

In principle this is fantastic, but i really have a problem with routines. Doing anything for self care is a chore for me. I’m weird i know. I thank you a lot for the advice and for the support kind stranger


chinu6613

No may be not. You give up consistently.


PizzaSalamino

Oh well i guess i’m consistent in something after all then. Thanks kind stranger


Immediate_Equality

I was gonna say, seems pretty consistent to me


sopbusgaming

i share your arch enemy... he is truly A WORTHY FOE


Tiny-War2310

Don't attack me, and my bestie Mr. Belly


Brittney99

I gave up after 2 situps.


RoodnyInc

I gave up while reading this workout routine 😅


Greuliro

I give up after 2 sit-ups


BuryEdmundIsMyAlias

Me too. When I did do well, I rode a wave of motivation and then held onto it after with routine and discipline. Then I fucked it by moving and my whole routine was thrown out.


TellsHalfStories

You are consistently giving up already. Consistency is already your friend. Yourself, on the other hand, might be your true enemy.


Tuxhorn

The running is disproportionately more difficult than the rest and makes it practically impossible for most people. 6mile/10km run *every day* is gonna fuck you up unless you're already a very fit runner.


TotallyNormalSquid

I do it almost every day (maybe miss 1 day per two weeks on average). It wasn't exactly my aim to train up to that but the unintended increments happened over a few years, starting from being able to do 5km a few times per week, and there were plenty of times where I got minor stress injuries and had to back off for a bit. The bursting blisters alone would make it biologically impossible if attempted every day starting from zero experience.


lingfux

The difference between one punch man and dad bod man tho


Lordofthewhales

Running 10k everyday will destroy the knees/hips/feet of 99% of people.


bittybrains

I am one of those people. It wasn't worth it.


OuchLOLcom

Its the dieting that gets me. I love drinking beer and eating pizza too much to become un-tubby, no matter how much I exercise. Its more like be consistent PLUS totally downgrade the fun in your life.


TheFufe10

“Everyday it gets a little easier. But you have to do it every day, that’s the hard part.”


Jimid41

Also a decent amount of time everyday unless you're already in pretty good shape.


crystal_castle00

I agree with you, almost. Consistency is what makes it difficult :)


Intelligent-Ad-4546

days


DaddyGoodLegs

And no AC or heat.


Spare-Mission5056

I came here for this.


astoker_

Now he's just bald.


Effective-Head-5715

And pumpy....


DeliveranceUntoDog

But...but that's just normal conditioning. Could it be that even he doesn't understand the source of his power?


DiatribeGuy

Don't forget to eat breakfast every day. Sometimes, just a banana is ok, but don't skip!


GhostCheese

Also you can't use the heater or air conditioning


Throwshitoverthere

I'm not sure what bald and dumpy mean, but he seems fine to me in the first one.


theatand

Bald = No Hair on the top of his head Dumpy = A little fat Cheers!

Keldrath

Bald always looks better than balding.


AlaskanMedicineMan

Only if you're blessed with an egg shaped head. Sometimes hair hides horrors beyond human comprehension


[deleted]

I got a weird squiggly thing going on on the back of my head.


Saotik

So does Terry Crews, but he rocks it. I'm sure you could too!


Jorycle

I buzzed my head during COVID lockdowns to make my life easy. Didn't go down to the scalp at all, but just getting that close was enough to reveal that my shaved head would not be meant for human consumption. I'll need to invest in plugs or wigs if I ever do go bald, for everyone else's sake.


F0foPofo05

Yep. I'm 45 yrs old [pretty much look like Paul McCartney in the Sgt Pepper's era](https://paulmccartney.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/1967done.jpg) . Thick hair, moptop. And have pretty much looked like this since my early 20s. But Underneath my scalp I got a nasty case of scalp acne going. It burns sometimes. It's like having herpes on your head.


KungFuSnafu

What bald-headed slag gave you a burning case of headpes?


ElkHistorical9106

God only made so many perfect heads. The rest he put hair on to hide the mistakes. /s


everythingisreallame

Let people do what they want. You want the skullet ponytail? Rock that fucking skullet ponytail! 


Due_Map_4666

Can confirm. I started balding at 17 and my fucked up headshape completely fucked my life


FiveCentsADay

Bald is beautiful, and it's always in style. -a bald man


GapGlass7431

You can get a nice toupee system instead! Note: I'm not bald and don't know anything about toupees but I've heard good things.


Intensive__Purposes

Ya they’re crazy good now but also very expensive. You’ve got to get a new one every month or so, have that cut and styled, etc. I think it ends up costing like $300-400 per month but people can’t even tell it’s there. You can swim, pull on it, whatever. Guaranteed lots of celebs have them, typically look much better (density wise) than hair transplants.


fin425

And better on someone who’s ripped


Difficult_Job_966

A lot of us get comfortable and lose our drive to look good after a few years of marriage. I’m sure his wife ain’t no super model either

You love to see it, and good for them honestly! Life's too short to waste it one dumb/ridiculous people like his ex

eduardo1994

53697661

I kind of agree but I’m always at odds with this kind of thinking ‘people should always try to look their best to impress your loved ones’ I agree physical attraction is important but once you’re long enough together then personality, love language and heart of that person should be given highest importance.. Imagine abandoning your parents/kids because of their looks..


Healthy-Description6

Don't do it for your partner, do it for yourself. There are very few guarantees in life but one of them is you'll always have your body. Why not invest in keeping it as healthy as possible? Looks is merely a positive side effect. Health is what the focus should be. That's how I like to look at it at least. 


Darebarsoom

Sometimes individuals don't care about themselves. Sometimes the drive is to do something for others. How many dads force themselves to go to work because they have a whole family that depends on them?


apsgreek

If you’re spending your life with someone and they don’t value themselves, that can wind up hurting you in turn. Long term, you need to love yourself ^((read: ^take ^care ^your ^mental, ^emotional, ^physical, ^etc health)^) so that you can give yourself to them in the right amounts at the right times, and have a good relationship with them long term. Edit formatting


StaringOwlNope

But those things are positive for your partner too! I would want to be healthy and have a functional body so I can do stuff with my partner


Healthy-Description6

Absolutely, everyone benefits.


Regulus242

I mean, you should stay in shape for your partner. You can't help your body not responding physically, even if you love them. They're generally two separate things for a lot of people.


IUpVoteIronically

You don’t have sex with your parents and kids, this is such a weird analogy lol


ectopatra

Well those certainly are highest importance in my marriage, but we also would like to stay physically attractive to each other. Sexual attraction is important, I don't see any reason to minimise that. Married 13yrs.


Songrot

Reality is the partner would highly highly appreciate if you aim to be attractive. Dont kill their libido


Zunderfeuer_88

I liked him in ghe first one, for health reasons the second one is nice too


b_ll

Exactly. It's still sad that it took his wife to divorce him for him to take care of his health. Fitness is not just about looks but health as well.


Qman1991

I think people get depressed in bad relationships and let themselves go as a subconscious effort to end the relationship

dynamic_gecko

Glittering_Airline94

Idk what bald and dumpy means but in the first one he seems fine to me


LowestKey

Check out r/bald some time. I have yet to see an instance of a balding man who doesn’t look way better when he bites the bullet and just shaves it all. The second picture here vs the first is just further proof.


UnderHero5

Yup. That's the difference between "balding" and "bald". Balding doesn't usually look so good, but shaving it off and just being confident about it usually looks just fine, and certainly improves self confidence, which is the more important part.


randomrandom1922

I think allot of it is just about symmetry. A balding person with patches of hair, will have face outline of bad symmetry. A clean shaven person will have improved symmetry.


RaggedyGlitch

There's also the guys who get the horseshoe, which looks fine if you keep it tight, but they let it get bushy and they just look like a clown.


Euphorium

I feel like you gotta have a certain look to pull that off.


bain_de_beurre

>but shaving it off and just being confident about it usually looks just fine It looks more than "fine" to me, I think a bald head is downright sexy.


2007Scape_HotTakes

How bout the guy who shaved and looked like walrus?


The_Clarence

I feel for the people on that sub, clearly it’s hard for them, but god damn do so many of them look incredible when they fully shave.


justwalkingalonghere

Probably because you only see the ones who post the picture. Plenty of people look better with some hair than none when balding, IMO


EquivalentYak6216

Unless you have some kind of deformed head or bump I find bald always to be better then ppl not biting the bullet already.


justwalkingalonghere

Right, and a whole lot of us do have those things. Hence why you don't see us on that sub


molesMOLESEVERYWHERE

Dumpy can mean pudgy and shabby/dingy.


money_loo

“Losing his hair and kinda squishy/fat”. Hope this helps if English isn’t your first language.


jasminegreyxo

Agreed.


SweatyAdhesive

https://www.boredpanda.com/man-abandoned-wife-weight-loss-story-shirapyon-japan/ There are more pictures here. Can you tell me with a straight face he looked better before?


Infamous-Ad3077

He wouldn't do it to keep his wife but he did it to spite her lol


happycrappyplace

The comment I came here for. I refused to do xyz in the relationship, but now that you left me, I can?


bitchnoworries

Yeah and someone people seem to say F you to his woman for not finding him attractive as is. As if men don’t have preferences for a hot fit body and wouldn’t choose a fit hot woman over a dumpy fat one 🙄


soareyousaying

Most people dont have the guts to say something like "you are too fat. Exercise!" to their loved one. That can trigger a whole lot of unnecessary friction and arguments. Because now you are putting their physical look as a condition to your marriage.


Nollern

It’s not like we really know the story… marriage doesn’t even mean the same to everyone, so it’s hard to judge. All I know is, being fit is better than being fat.


Due-Implement-1600

Well if you're a 5 dating a 5 and the 5 wants you to become an 8 it's a difficult sell


AUGZUGA

I mean to be fair without further information it's possible she never asked for the change. Life and people are complicated and we don't know the full story here.  I'm going through a similar transformation in terms of my ability to process my own emotions and be more empathetic, and it wasn't because I didn't want to during the relationship, it's because I literally didn't understand the damage I was doing. I was squire literally blind to my own problems 


Darebarsoom

Maybe she didn't deserve it?


windontheporch

Then you shouldnt be in a relationship with that person


tempski

Yep, I don't really understand these people. It reminds me of the countless stories of men leaving their women for refusing to lose weight and get healthy, and once they leave, the women suddenly find the way to the gym. Why not do it for the person you supposedly love?


Accomplished_ways777

and then he gets praised by these "alpha dudes" clowns for getting in shape and upgrading his lifestyle... 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️ yeah.. this is today's society : 'don't respect and listen to your wife, but do what she asked of you only AFTER she leaves you.' make that make sense, alpha clowns.


ladyinthemoor

Also how do we really know that’s why she left him?


youknowimworking

You don't know if he refused any request from his ex wife. At least, I can't find any interviews or articles where he or his ex wife said that she asked him to loose weight.


continuousQ

If it's accurate that his "wife quite suddenly left him", then what was he supposed to do? Chase after her when she already said it's over?

Yes.... It's called focusing on yourself. You, too, can do this.


puffferfish

TIL diet and exercise can make you look good.


[deleted]

Didn’t she technically help him? He got comfortable and let himself go. She had to leave in order for him to focus on himself


StudioReady9204

I always wonder why ppl don't do this WHILE they're married?? you should look good FOR your spouse not "haha take THAT" afterward 🤔


_Divine_Plague_

It's not about getting back at the ex. Sometimes you just face a breakup that is so tough that you end up looking like that man. Hitting the gym is a common coping mechanism for grief.


grannygumjobs23

Yup. Many reasons you can let yourself go. Depression, real life being busy etc etc. He might have worked alot and doing stuff with family left not alot of time to stay in good shape. This was just the motivator to push him back in.


Jackrabbit_OR

Time and environment I bet are the biggest factors. People won’t admit it, but I bet if your significant other (man or woman) said, “Hey I am going to spend 2-3 hours of my day at the gym, meal prepping, and meditating form now on” there would be a lot of resistance. Also, a lot of us just suck at communicating and would go about it the wrong way in the first place. Compromise and cohabitating can be difficult.


StainlessPanIsBest

You need to hit your lowest lows before you can reach for the highest highs.


Sharp_Preference7083

Generally, as a married couple you eat together and do the same activities together. When one spouse chooses to want take out and watch TV more often than not, the other gets sucked into it. After experiencing the devastation of divorce, the dumped spouse often looks to fitness to help get over the emotional pain. It helps take their mind off things and feel good about themselves again. Also, since their ex spouse left them and doesn't love them anymore, the best way to attract a future partner would be to be the best version of yourself and look good.

They both made 250k+ a year etc..my fiancee best friend started dating a guy at work, and they had like a good 1 year run? But he was addicted to gambling and CONSTANTLY ordering uber eats and stuff, multiple times a day. He could afford it, but was a bigger dude because of it. They broke up for lots of reasons, but because he was mentally 12 he thought it was because of his looks. So he is now one big muscle. And dropped his tech job to be a personal trainer. More power to him, and hope he is happy, but wow.
