First day back after holidays and the rain was absolutely relentless.

Most of my classmates did't show up. I still went, and only a handful of us showed up. Attendance was so low that the teachers didn't even bother taking lectures.

So I took the window seat, put on some music, opened LeetCode, and spent the day grinding DSA while watching the rain pour outside.

The rain gave everyone a holiday. It gave me ambience.

Bought two stainless steel bottles in different sizes.

My brain: "They're just bottles."

Also my brain 5 minutes later: "They're in love."

I may have gotten slightly carried away with the doodles... but I regret nothing.

Now I can't look at them without imagining they're a shy couple. 😂

Did 200 push-ups today, split across multiple sets. Took a before and after photo just to see the pump.

I know it's not actual muscle gain, just a temporary pump, but the difference was bigger than I expected.

I've been training at home for a while using mostly pull-ups and regular push-ups.

As you can see in the pics, my arms have grown, but my shoulders still look flat from the front.

I want that wider, "boulder shoulder" look.

What push-up variations should I add to target all three delts (front, side, and rear)?

Right now I mostly do standard push-ups.

Pata Hai Aaj Kya Hua

Aaj didi ke saath sabzi shopping karne gaya tha.

Didi apni shopping mein busy thi aur main bas uske peeche-peeche bags utha ke chal raha tha. Full-time unpaid intern.

Achanak kisi ne peeche se shoulder tap kiya.

Mud ke dekha toh 2 ladkiyan khadi thi... dono hasi jaa rahi thi.

Ek ne bola, "Bhaiya, aap cute dikhte ho." (in marathi)

Main ek second ke liye freeze ho gaya. 😭

Maine pucha, "Kaunsi class mein ho?"

Boli, "9th."

Meri soul body se alag ho gayi.

Seedha didi ki taraf dekha... Woh mujhe aisi look de rahi thi jaise maine hi inko approach kiya ho. 💀

Didi bas boli, "Chal. Yahan se."

Hum dono seedha nikal liye. (Didi genuinely saved me.)

Ghar aane ke baad bhi didi ne mujhse properly baat nahi ki. 😭

Mera crime kya tha? Sabzi ke bags uthana ya cute dikhna? (I looked homeless btw)

Pata Hai Aaj Kya Hua

So me and my brother were having the most heated Messi vs Ronaldo debate imaginable.

At some point he got so angry that he wanted to say "Messi is autistic" (which was already a weird thing to bring up), but instead he yelled:

"MESSI IS ACOUSTIC!"

I instantly lost it. I was laughing like an absolute maniac.

Then he realized he said the wrong word and tried to correct himself...

Except he doubled down and shouted:

"NO! I MEAN AUTOSTICK!"

At that point I was completely finished. 💀💀💀

Bro accidentally turned Messi into a guitar and then a car transmission within 5 seconds.

We were both laughing too hard to continue the argument.

And yes, before anyone asks...

Messi is still the GOAT. 🐐

9 weeks in 💪🏻

Consistency is starting to pay off

Feeling stronger, workouts feel more controlled, and my endurance has improved compared to when I started.

Still far from my end goal, but I'm focused on showing up every day and trusting the process.

Did around 150 push-ups total today.

This video is from my 10th set (15 reps target), and I went close to failure near the end.

Just looking for feedback on: Form, Body alignment, Range of motion, Any mistakes caused by fatigue

Thanks.

Been training at home for 2 months

I have been doing mostly :

• Push-ups ( incline, decline, diamond, wide-arm)
• Pull-ups & Chin-ups
• Core exercises (planks, leg raises, crunches)

Diet is just normal home-cooked meals.
No supplements but recently started calorie tracking.

Results so far:

• Push-ups: 5 → 30+ reps
• Pull-ups: 2 → 8-10 reps
• Better core strength
• Slightly more muscle definition and leaner appearance

I did 10 pull-up today! 🥳

First Set : 10 Second Set : 7 Third Set : 5 Fourth Set : 3 Last Set : 5

Total 30 pull-ups.

My bro says - back engagement nahi hori, sara pressure shoulder pr aara.

I think I'm doing it correctly 😤

Need honest feedback

A few days ago, I told my mom that my water always gets warm and I was tired of constantly refilling small bottles.

I didn't think much of it. Today she came home with this giant 2L bottle. 😭😭

It's a small thing, but it reminded me how moms quietly listen to the things we say and try to make our lives a little easier. ❤️

Not sure I'll ever finish 2 liters in one go, but the thought behind it means a lot.

I saw this movie today and I was laughing like a mad man watching this scene, maybe because I understood the questions 😂

This sub can def understand my joy so I posted this

OG clip from Damdar Khiladi

I started working out about a month ago and recently noticed these spots/bumps on my back.

Is this back acne, or could it be something else? Is this normal when you start working out and sweating more?

What helped you get rid of it? Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks! 🙏

Thanks for all the feedback on my last video.

This time I focused on keeping my head down and my core engaged.

Push-ups to failure — let me know what still needs work.

This phonk track has become a permanent part of my workouts.

Every time I feel like stopping, it kicks in and somehow gives me that extra push to finish the set. The energy, the bass, the whole vibe just makes me want to keep going no matter how tired I am.

It sounds stupid, but some days it genuinely feels like the music won't let me quit.

What do you guys listen to when you work out?

Does your music just play in the background, or does it actually give you energy and help you push through tough sets?

Naruto was my first anime. I started watching it with my brother after my 10th board exams ended. It was during the lockdown period, when we suddenly had all the time in the world and nowhere to go.

We would spend the entire day watching Naruto until our 1.5 GB data pack got exhausted. And when the data ran out, we'd still keep talking about the episodes, theories, characters, fights—anything Naruto-related.

The funny part is that network coverage at our house was terrible. We literally had to keep the phone near the window just to get enough signal to watch episodes. At the time it felt annoying, but now those little struggles are some of my favorite memories.

This reel popped up out of nowhere and instantly brought all of that back. What's strange is realizing how fast life moves. Back then I could spend an entire day watching anime without a second thought.

Now I barely watch anime at all. Not because I stopped liking it, but because life slowly filled up with other responsibilities.

Seeing that reel felt like opening a time capsule. It reminded me of a version of myself that had fewer worries, more free time, and a brother sitting beside me getting excited over the next episode.

I guess this is what growing up feels like.

When you are doing home workout, you have make best use of your environment lol

Able to do 3 sets of these.

Abhi tho hardly 6-7 pull-ups hote hai, trying to increase the count.

I recently came across The Breaker and the artwork immediately caught my attention.

From what I can tell, it's a martial arts/action manhwa, but I don't know much beyond that.

For those who have read it, Would you recommend it to someone who enjoys action series with good world-building?

Thnx
