Will post pics later but I have a list of cars below: Dark Blue 2001 Mercedes ML430 V8 (Had this car since highschool. Has almost exactly 250k on it) White 2014 Nissan GT-R (mostly a weekend warrior) White 2017 Audi S7 (daily driver along w/ the mercedes) White 1997 Mitsubishi base w/ VR4 conversion I have a bike that I rarely ride too.. I want to say I got it in 2011 and it was an earlier model GSX-R 1000 in black. Very fun to ride, but I always feel like I'm going to get in trouble with it which is why it's rarely ever ridden. You may notice all the white vehicles. Such a clean color for a car IMO. I do take care of them quite often even when it's cold out and when it's sunny outside they shine like nothing else.

The garage pics look so similar to JR's garage lol

Like what Fatty Matty said. Don't compare yourself to others. Workout only to make yourself better and motivate others. I struggled alot on bench press until I had to study my own lifts and figure out where my weaknesses are. Once you figure that out, you can continue to make progress

First I'm going to give you an example of where I started to give you an idea of my points below. At the beginning of 2011 before I went to Marine Corps bootcamp, i weighed in at about 143lbs. I've been a skinny bastard my whole life (what many people call an "ectomorph"). Before I got deployed I did put on some noob gains and reached about 153-155lbs but nothing too significant. I hammered myself with alcohol and smoked cigarettes on an almost daily basis until my first deployment. When I got deployed in 2013 is where I really went all out. Granted I didn't have shit else to do but I made a goal. I wanted to gain weight. I didn't want to be called that skinny bastard every damn day. Throughout the 11 months that I was deployed I busted my ass, ate to recover, and went even harder as days went on. When I came back to the states, my final weight was 175lbs. Ever since then I've let nothing get in the way of my working out, continued to create goals, and stuck with them. I'm now at 205lbs and have never felt better. The point of the example above is create goals. Create short term and long term goals and STICK WITH THEM. Don't constantly change them. Learn the correct way, not the lazy way (This is optimal so you don't injure yourself). Keep a log of your progress so you can see that you are making progress. Once you see progress, continue to meet your short term goals while working to meet your long term goals. When you look at yourself in the mirror and see the progress you've made, you'll stay motivated and you'll want to learn more. A side note as well. All this depends on your goals. Whether you're doing crossfit, powerlifting, bodybuilding, or whatever. If you do powerlifting stuff, watch powerlifting videos of people pulling crazy ass weight. Maybe this doesn't make you motivated? Then watch progress videos of people such as transformations between 1-10 years. Look on youtube for different stuff to keep you motivated and keep your head in the game. One thing that I do especially on the Instagram posts of my progress is say that I'm always motivated. You will always have days where you are not as motivated as you were yesterday, but sometimes the false motivation helps too. Keep making progress and kicking ass!!

Thanks everyone. Much appreciated Here's to many more years playing with HG

Like what Suicide said. You are definitely on the right path. Straighten up your diet, don't spend more than an hour to an hour and a half in the gym, and get some sleep. One of the biggest mistakes I ever made was not eating enough quality food. If you are eating ALOT and aren't gaining then eat MORE to support your strength gains. I would say 95% of progress is made in the kitchen. I'd like to stress staying in the gym for long periods of time too. There is no need to destroy your muscles more than you need to. Get in the gym, do some work depending on your strength/hypertrophy goals, and get out to recover. No need to stick around. As far as sleep, try your best to get 8-10 hours of sleep a day so you can wake up refreshed and ready to kick the day in the ass. I don't claim to be very strong, but I have been working out for quite a while now for powerlifting and bodybuilding. Maybe some others will have some different information to slide your way just make sure you do your own research on top of taking our and others advice. Keep killin it whatever your goals are!

What's up guys, my name is Jon and I'm 26 years old. Some of you may know me as V!rUs playing on HG Crackhouse (CSS) or office servers. I've been playing CSS for about 10 years now, and have also been playing on crackhouse for as long as I can remember. I want to say around 2009 but that may be way off... I've had way too much on my plate within the last 6 years. I did have a period of time where I was rarely on due to joining the Marine Corps back in 2011. Now that I have separated, I do play when I have time between personal and work life. I'm happy to finally be posting here and am looking forward to future conversations. Let's have some fun!
