i think he is a short chubby jobless little incel and lies on the internet to feel better about himself.
i have been pretending to be friends with him to lift his spirits since nobody else seems to like him.
Op probably weighs more than average.
Welcome to the internet. If you are proud to be less than average and boasting pitiful accomplishments online then you deserve a reality check imo. Keep a private log and post when you made a significant progress no one wants to know you can tie your shoes or lift 2 bags of groceries or other unimpressive achievements.
We have an epidemic of weak men, don't need to defend them or give out participation trophies. A good reminder is benching less than your body weight is considered weak. Which means less talking and more lifting. Talk when you achieved bare minimum.
Without exception, low testosterone males, such as yourselves, feel the need to deride others accomplishments and progress in the gym because they are insecure about their own self-image.
Putting others down makes you feel superior, but at the end of the day, both of you did not make the severe lifestyle change that OP did, so now youre just jealous.
The absolute state of dyels in current year
I will pray for both of you
