Guys, would you rather be a breakdancer (bboy) or a gym bro?

Breakdancer/Bboy

Gym bro

[InventorofWarp]

I've sort of become a gym bro. Halfway through COVID I realized how much more weright I'd put on and suddenly made a home gym and started lifting weights for 1-2 hours every day and in the last 10 months I've lost 30 lbs of fat and gained 15 lbs of muscle and now have abs.
Funny enough I was always a scrawny nerd who got picked on growing up but my drug addiction sort of sent me downward for a while. Replacing that with working out was a wise effort.
I now find myself as one of the douchebags who likes to go sans shirt and posting selfies and sleeps shirtless. Granted self-esteem and confidence don't magically come with knowing I'm now ripped, I don't really feel different otherwise. I just feel good getting healthy.
I don't work out as much as I actually did five months ago but I've reached a healthy diet balance where aside my cheat days I'm able to balance my calories out and maintain an overabundance of protein, fibre and vitamins and work off more calories than I take in.
I should add that I'm also a naturally lean and lithe man, I stand well over 6 feet tall so me ripped looks more cut like Adrian Brody or John Krasinski.

Interesting story. I am somewhat touched by your story. I am glad that you found relief in the gym. I am more of a streetdancer. I started dancing because the jocks and muscle heads used to tease for being a weakling who sucked at sports. Additionally, I was socially awkward, and had a difficult time talking to girls. Though, breakdancing was my blanket, I used drugs to blanket my social issues. When I used to be a cocaine addict; I used to breakdance like there was no tommarow.

Damn, that sounds pretty cool. I can kinda dance by coping all the Michael Jackson, Elvis and Derulo I watched as a kid but I'd never be able to breakdance. Never danced with someone either.
Cocaine was amongst my addictions. LSD, DMT, Ecstasy and I abused alcohol for quite a while too.
Music and singing and working out became my outlet. God man if I'd been as ripped as I am now in school no one ever would've fucked with me.

Except I still can't talk to girls, lol. Aside my friends, one of my best friends is female.

Sometimes females make better friends. How often do you dance? How ripped are you? Height and weight? I am sure no one would pick on you now. Do you still suffer from low self esteem? Sometimes mental scars are difficult to remove from one’s life.

1: I dance randomly, typically if I'm alone and singing something or I'm really stoned and my favourite songs from childhood and such come on.
2: Ripped enough that I have started to get noticed now suddenly. I never had a woman come up to me a bar before.
3: 6'8 220 lbs. Prior to this I was 245 lbs.
4: 100%. If anything my insecurities are worse since now I feel like no one will ever understand how I had to change and will never see that nerdy dorky kid who was dreaming of a girlfriend back when he was a boy and I'll never be able to not feel like someone would've never liked me back when I was a complete loser even though I was still a nice, good kid back then. As is usual I just try not to think about and live now.
Just because I'll have insecurities about having always been unnoticed and rejected and no one liking me doesn't mean someone else didn't have their own thing. Who knows, maybe I meet a girl whose experienced way more than me and was always popular but no one ever really treated her well.
Til then I'm happiest alone with my improvements.

Wow you’re pretty tall. Dude, 6’8” is madd tall. Females can be weird creatures. They are the reason why I started using drugs.

[InventorofWarp]

Yeah, I get that a lot. I'm half-German half-British/French, I think I got the German height.
Ah, that probably wasn't it, it's easy to blame the other gender for me having such a naive and overly-romanticized view of the world and women.

[Sillyboi98]

Glad you’re happy with your gains. There is this dude named JP awake on YouTube and females lust over him because of his muscular body. But his face isn’t so handsome. It is amazing how a nice body can make unattractive dude like “ Awaken with JP” a chick magnet.
