While I encourage everyone to do resistance training, I don't think I have the wherewithal to moderate whether people are doing proper opsec. For example, I should be on account 4 or 5 at this point. That shit with current body threads flies on 4chan and look at what a shitshow it has become (We also have their sticky, the liamrosen link, alongside Reddit's in our sidebar after the rules). All they care about on their fitness forum are immutable parts of their body - sparsely intermingled are actual questions and solicited critiques of diets, routines, and results thereof. I'm sure there's a lot to be done about the fitness community here. If I were heads up about it, it'd probably be better that we just merge with self improvement. Not yet has this been a place where we've focused on physiques. If anyone's response to your post is 'post body' I'm going to be . I take some responsibility for that for being a lazy, absentee moderator. Especially as one who has previously critiqued going in depth with bodybuilding as juice not worth the squeeze. If anyone has ideas for how to do a better job, DM me (or put me on blast, I'm not picky). Contests? Weekly focuses+discussions?

You could probably answer every question about physiques without looking at them anyway "should I bulk or cut first?" bulk. "my shoulders look misaligned." go to a doctor. "I don't want my boobs to shrink" do surgery or something else - your vanilla process has other plans. "My progress after X months seems lackluster." eat more, sleep more, and lift with a routine.

If it's up to me, you're not banned for the comments in this thread because you seem otherwise like an upstanding member of the community. But you need to do better if you keep posting here. Asking questions is fine, unsolicited critique of bodies doesn't fly. It also rubs me the wrong way to goad people into inferior opsec.

Former real-world opsec manager for yankee interests before I started shucking off the yoke of empire: what you're requesting is eminently foolish regarding hard-left posters who I can only assume make frequent habit of attending actions and protests. From one potential selfie here, regardless of the context, I could trace that back to every single social media platform you use, maybe even find a couple of your email addresses, or a grip of phone numbers that one of 'em is yours.

Just one badly cropped image, or unscrubbed pool of EXIF data can lead me straight to you, in meatspace, if you're not as tech savvy as people like us need to be. Now just imagine what kind of purpose-made, bespoke tools our opfors have for that exact purpose.

Probably for opsec reasons.

Nothing stopping you from posting yours

You may have noticed people don't post pics of themselves on here period, this is for good reason. Hell even only a handful of people post pictures of their pets.

The last time someone posted a pic they were fucking huge, then it got removed for self-doxx

Nice try FBI!

I run twice a week and have a dad bod.

This is literally me
