38

Last Fall, I got a visit from an old friend whom I hadn't seen in a while, and he had done a great job of bulking up. OK, challenge accepted. So I dug out my old weights and got to it. I also researched everything from lifting form to diet and made very good (natty) progress over the winter months. I hadn't even heard of these redpill subreddits until about 2 months ago, so none of this had to do with any redpill lift mantra. (though I totally agree with it)

Earler this month we made our first family trip to the beach for the summer and my transformation was obvious. My wife (who sees me everyday) felt compelled to say "wow you do look defined". As I'm standing out in the waist-high water, I'm getting other mom's saying little conversation starters to me like "do you think there's sharks near here?" and "these waves aren't too bad don't you think?". My teen daughter actually seemed a little perturbed at one persistent (and busty) mom trying to chat me up out in the water. We'll go back a few more times in August.

TLDR: lifting works.

What? No enthusiastic blowjob at the end of the post?

For the new guys, THIS is what we mean by "Dread."

Dread is NOT: "Look at me flirting with all these women, you better drop your panties bitch or I am going to cheat!"

Dread is subtle and ideally simply flows from the changes to your body and personality we suggest.

I view dread to be both passive and active. similar to income.

Looking good is passive, you aren't doing anything more than simply existing.

Active dread is making your wife's friend/the waitress/random chick melt in your hand through you gaming her.

I agree.

Passive dread (Levels 1 - 5 if I remember correctly) is shit you should just be doing anyway for yourself. Have hobbies, lift, look good, work on hitting goals.

Active dread is the hammer used to give your relationship percussive therapy until either it works, or you move on.

Great way of summing up dread, I'm going to memorize this by heart.

I was also wondering...

I find a nice piece of folksy wisdom helps keep it straight in my head.

If you have to tell someone, then you ain't it.

Way to go, this has inspired me to start working out again myself after a very busy summer. How much time did you dedicate to lifting? An hour every few days focusing on a few different muscle groups, or maybe a half-hour workout every day?

You can kill a man, but you can't kill an idea.
