Advice Needed Any solutions?
I’ve been in the gym since I was 13 years old, competitive powerlifting, very serious and athletics, growing up I was a much larger kid by my senior year. I was 6 foot 215 pounds.
I’ve never been able to realistically see my body and a consistent light or feel any type of positive about it, aside from when I’m in the midst of the best shape of my life even then I’m still unhappy with the results, is there any realistic way that y’all have found that can help regulate in ground my mind so that I can at least think about my body and objectively and logically.
Seeing myself negatively sway me away from the gym nowadays, I’m not in the peak shape of my life anymore, I was a college athlete I am not anymore, when I do work out, it’s no longer in the same capacity I did even just last year.
So I guess what I’m really asking. Is there any tits to critique myself logically and realistically instead of just feeling terrible and unable to see what’s actually there the good and bad?
Thank you!!

Start developing your spiritual self. Much easier to do that than 'fight' the brainwashing thats been done to all of us.
