On a completely unrelated note, a lot of people enjoy working out for the sake of doing it.
people do that with anything really

sad neets and depressed people (me) use video games as escapeism so they don't commit suicide for another day

normies hang out with friends or workout cuz it releases good feelings in brain

then you have the weirdos who want to get away from everyone and enjoy nature, so they go hunting

True, I just thought it was worth reiterating because we're apparently supposed to treat it as work of the devil.

I mean I think Luciana's point is that you might live to be 40 - 50 but the quality of your life might suffer. Various issues that add up to make it less enjoyable.
the world is shit, i'm poor as a motherfucker, and everyone's a fucking idiot but at least i have abs :DDDD

what a joke
lmao, have fun with your various nagging physical ailments that could have been prevented from spending a bit of time doing some exercise.
don't, you'll only encourage him more

It's so hard not to

i'm $100K in debt because my college career didn't pan out the way i thought it would, but at least i have 20 extra years to slave away paying it all off because i'm just so darn healthy!!!

better than having fun living in complete misery because i didn't spend enough of my time doing what i wanted, rather than what some dumb kid on the internet thinks i should do

"but you already live in complete misery"

four fifths misery, work and exercise would complete it

A serious post though

Verb I see where you're coming from with it all being pointless from the bigger picture, since my mind wanders that way on more than a few occasions with regards to other worldly issues.

We just come from fundamentally different standpoints and will disagree. My mindset being that if my life is ultimately pointless and serves no real purpose, I might as well feel good and enjoy it while I can, and maybe try to make an impact on some idiots lives.

That's about it really. And now I'm gonna try not to die on Escape from Tarkov.

either way i think the goal here should be comvincing him that there are people who could conceivably see being healthy as worthwhile, even if he doesn't.

explain how feeling sore for hours in the morning because i expended all my energy lifting or running the other day, and not having any remaining energy left to do actual fun things, is improving the quality of my day to day life

Your argument is already flawed if you have your own threshold of what fun is. Some people find working out as fun as you find something like Zelda (which shouldn't surprise you considering others enjoy something like CoD all day for fun, whereas others don't)

that's what makes humans unique and allows you to argue with them all day. People have different opinions and ideas.

but its not "really silly"

a middle aged man with a genetic predisposition to heart problems has an obligation to prolong his life (and foster a functional psychological position) in order to provide for his family until such a point where they can do it themselves

a philanthropic person could conceivably want to live longer in order to help more people

and there are good reasons for it even beyond prolonging life

people with unhealthy dieting habits increase economic strain on society at large

a depressed person could want to "reset" their brain's chemical creation process

a recovering addict could be trying to find a healthy substitution for their addiction

someone with low self esteem could acquire more self worth by proving himself a physically capable person in the gym through competitions

either way i dont think its prudent to treat elitism with more elitism

Your actual fun things require the same energy as that? You're playing video games or whatever, you can do that for hours without moving what kind of physical energy do you need??

The soreness is one thing but you're only sore because you haven't done it in a while, if you're consistently working out for a moderate amount of time you don't feel like you're dying when you do the same exercise.

As for the improvements, say you have a bad back because of posture, well doing exercises to improve your back strength will help to alleviate that. Say you were sore every time you stood up but did exercise for 10 - 20 minutes every couple days and it went away. Is that such a commitment?

well no, you see, because that was my point from the beginning

you were giving advice to jono saying "working out will get you laid and improve your life in general"

all i said was "yeah but maybe it won't though, that's not guaranteed"
