I had dropped this Manga waiting to see if it would pick up because while I found it interesting it seemed to be stuck in a cycle, but scrolling through the untranslated chapters it seems to still be in that cycle.

Girl talks about exercising across way too many pages in a dejected almost bored way, but it doesn't seem to build up to something we saw or in a way to change her character

Girl exercises alone in almost complete silence for fanservice, meaning the chapter is pretty much a volume extra
Girl accidentally gets physically closer to guy and he does a bored face

The main girl's body is nice but most of the time the panelling is quite boring and normal, and devoid of background, the fat guy looks like a background NPC.

I thought there was more plot to it, but after 6 years...where are we?

I might as well follow a pixiv artist who specialized in muscle girls and I might get as much than from this story.

You missed some other chapters though
If i remember right when the whole DMCA Purge happen. The scan group didn't like the rules that MD put in and left. Then Comick happen, which made many groups to call it quits as well. Since then a lot of people are feeling like shit and will comeback once it's better to read online safer.
From what I gathered elsewhere, chapters 45 and 46 were released on the scanlator's Discord server - presumably as links to some private archive on a third-party platform (e.g. MEGA).

Thanks for the TLs OP, I'll probably be dropping this so your announcement was right on time.

I thought I'd enjoy an ecchi SoL on bodybuilding but the subject matter got old fast. Nothing interesting ever happens. Even the few interesting story beats that do get introduced, like Itsuha's body dysmorphia or Kyousuke's SA by his sister, don't get any follow-up whatsoever. It's just a means to an end to fill pages.

So yeah, thanks again OP.

It's a slow-burn examination of body dysmorphia and the ways that body issues can present themselves, so that cycle you're seeing is all there is. There is no plot, in the usual sense, and the ecchi is both a trap and a window into the MCs problems with sex. The romance tag really needs to be replaced with the psychological tag.
Anyway, I think it's fantastic and really hope someone else picks it up some day. This is the kind of manga that will never get picked up in foreign markets and that's a damn shame.

It would be nice if it actually focused on that, instead it feels tackled on, in the grand scheme, it feels like bait to pretend there is a deeper plot behind, like we are watching Conan and every now and then they pretend there is a main plot that is progressing.
