There has been an overabundance of questions and mytakes on this on this website pertaining to this topic. It's getting to a point where I almost catch myself laughing at some of these trivial attacks and derogatory comments.
**NOTE: I'm not trying to start any heated nonsensical arguments here.. I blocked out the usernames so this is not targeting anyone in specific but rather addressing the GAG community as a whole**
**All of the pictures in this take are some examples.. these alone will only constitute for about 5% of what I've seen all together.. I just can't fit it all into one mytake.**
Are these the same people that are making these types of questions too? 😂
Let's put things in perspective..
Here is a curveball for everyone. If there was a man that had fascination of vintage cars.. I mean he was just obsessed with vintage cars and he could tell you the mechanics of every internal combustion engine created by Ford since 1903 when Ford was established.. He loved the idea of taking something that lacked solidity and building it into something that he sought out to be beautiful.
Following up on that..! This man had a hobby of purchasing these vintage cars that were broken down and he fixed them up. He put in long hours of hard work into his projects and as a result.. it would always yield something that would be described not as refinement but rather extraordinary through the experiential reality of his own perception.
Now riddle me this boyos.. would this man be called arrogant if he were to post pictures of those vehicles before and after on various car forums and social media? No that would be silly.. because he put a lot of hard work into do that and has every right to be proud of it. That is his craft and art form. That is what he absolutely loves to do and the same concept applies to fitness and bodybuilding.
Arrogance.. ? You’re a direct reflection of what you repeatedly do everyday. Personally.. I know I have a strong work ethic and I'm constantly striving for self improvement everyday. I can without a doubt say that I am a better person than the guys who don't have the mere discipline to stay active.. eat correctly.. and take care of themselves. That's not arrogance.. that's just logic. I work hard for everything I do.. it's not like it was handed to me. That's why I'm successful with what I choose to do and I have every right to say that.
....Why do I lift? (Incoming novel)
**NOTE: You can build a great physique moderately training 4 days a week and eating correctly. Now this part only pertains to real.. no bullshit bodybuilding.. You can choose to skip over this part if you wish.**
Building a proportional body with perfect symmetry and aesthetics is not an easy thing to do and most people don’t have the discipline to follow through with it. You really have to love it otherwise you’ll quit. It’s that hard and it’s that tough.. any rational person that is attempting to do it for ulterior motives other than the love for the lifestyle would give up because it’s just that fucking hard. You can’t fake eating 6 meals a day.. You can’t fake going to the gym and taking your body to your absolute limits to where you feel like you are going to pass out on daily basis. You can’t fake that..
Results in bodybuilding will only come if you are on that level.
**These are the meals that I prep.. it's not easy to consume massive amount of calories like this**
Training for me is my favorite part of the day. Putting my headphones on.. blasting my music.. Grunting and tossing weights around.. it's almost therapeutic. During that hour or so literally nothing else matters.. I'm focused and it's almost as if I'm in a trance.. My mindset is.. Let's see how far I can take myself today. I'm not afraid to puke or fall over walking in the gym.. not afraid to pass out.. as savage and crazy as that sounds I love that shit. Those feel good endorphins that I get post workout is the best natural high you could ever get. When I'm training I'll get this amazing feeling when all the blood is rushing towards my targeted muscles of the day.. my skin feels extremely thin.. Vascularity comes out.. Feel like that muscle is about to explode. Feels AMAZING. This is how Arnold described it.. 😂
Another reason why I like bodybuilding/fitness is because you are constantly learning new things about your body.. how it responds to certain things.. nutrition.. hormones.. vitamins.. It's all really interesting stuff. You really come to terms with your own anatomy . You discover your physical limits.. your strengths.. your weaknesses. You learn how body works from the inside out.
The aesthetic appeal and the attention you get from the chicks is a huge plus.. and yes most women do love muscle and a sexy physique.. but it's not only about that.
When set your mind to something.. create a goal and pursue that goal with an unrelenting effort no matter the difficulty you become certain of the uncertainty. Even though some days it's hard and you don't want push forward.. you do it anyways. Over a period of time this creates confidence. This goal and the struggles that you went through to reach this goal reminded you that you have control over your life and your life doesn't have control over you. You now understand that you have the ability to choose whether you want to act and make decisions off of your emotions or logic. It's much more logical to go train your ass off at the gym after work than it is to convince yourself that you can't do it because you're too tired.
The way you stand.. the way you talk.. your demeanor.. everything about will change in a positive way if you follow through with a goal that you initially thought was too hard or damn near impossible. People will start to notice these changes and will want to be around you more. You naturally start to surround yourself with other like minded positive people. This applies in so many other aspects of life other than just bodybuilding and fitness. I bet you half of the U.S. population that claims to be depressed could easily drop their zoloft prescription if they just nutted up and followed through with something like that.
This is how apply my mindset to my training. Bodybuilding is my craft and it’s what I love to do.. I dedicate a good portion of my life to it. I have every fucking right to post my pictures because I’m proud hard my hard work. When I was younger around 16 years old.. I remember looking on the bodybuilding forums and seeing guys that were absolutely jacked and I looked up to them and it motivated me. Now I get to be one of those guys that will maybe motivate another younger kid to do the same.
All of this shit if you chose to read it is completely raw. I didn't have to think about it at all. So next time you are thinking about saying someone is a dumbass and start laying negative stereotypes because he or she lifts weights.. realize that passion goes a long way.. and you need to realize how closed minded you are. My point being in all of that above shows you that I love this shit.. who the hell are you to shame me for that?
...Why do people do this and how far do they take it?
If someone is proud of the way they look then they have the right to talk about it any chance that they want to within reason.. who are you to shame them and their confidence? In their perception they look good and that confidence creates an aura that people are generally attracted to. Just because it sounds like you are not so confident in your looks doesn’t mean you need to stem your insecurities onto others in attempt to bring them down to your level. People love my cockiness and I’m unapologetic about it.
I think the people who do this are extremely insecure and bitter. I get that I can come across as a dick without a filter sometimes.. but If I don't like someone or their stance on a particular subject then I'll say it to their face and I'll almost always keep it on that question or opinion. I'll make them the laugh the next day on another question.. I don't have grudges. What I don't do... I don't tell my clique with the intentions to go on these long drawn out battles in which we try to depict anything we can find to insult them at every angle possible. I'll occasionally tag people in within the discussion but I always keep it at that.
“Oh look at your shirtless pic..must of been abused as a child.. Must be compensating for something. Must have PTSD.. Oh you must beat your girlfriend.. Oh.. that must mean you’re stupid.. (as they critique trivial grammatical errors)." Oh.. you must have a small dick.. Oh..I bet you didn't even graduate high school.. Ahh.. don't roid rage on me!(As they attempt to get under your skin)
Concluding...
I’m used to it over the years.. it happens. Now based on my personal experience when people talk shit on you when in this way.. It’s because you're a direct reflection of what they never could be and that pisses them off to no end. It’s much easier for those people to excuse someones success by attacking them with irrelevant and contentious comments. It’s coping mechanism and they don’t even realize it.
Bro.. if I was nobody.. and I was just an ugly arrogant douchebag that had nothing going for me.. why the hell are people taking time out of their days to come at me so hard? If I was nobody then people wouldn’t even pay attention to me. The fact that I’m causing so much hostility from people like this tells me that I’m pretty badass lol. I mean it’s sort of complimentary at this point tbh.
Just let me do me boyos.. if my physique makes you insecure about yours to the point where you feel the need to insult me.. then you can kiss beautifully sculpted glutes and politely escort yourself to the nearest exit.
I'll finish this myTake with a GIF that describes my exact emotions when people make questions in regards to fitness shaming.
Hahaha I fucking love you man. It's like a dog barking at a bullet train, we're cruising on the fast track in life, totally insignificant. Our success is guaranteed by our motivation. Choo Choo
"If I listened to the haters and naysayers I'd still be yoodling in the Austrian Alps" -Arnold Schwarzenegger
@Relentless_Hippie I'm not complaining rather just making it evident that this does happen. This was a rebuttal to the 20 others takes that were geared towards fitness shaming.
I wasn't talking about you lol. I get why you've posted this take. I've seen those exact questions and takes you've used as examples and I've also seen yours and your friend's responses. Honestly I think people just want an excuse to be unhealthy and out of shape. I agree, it's stupid to be mad at people for being healthy.
@Relentless_Hippie lol i complain about it all cause its fucking stupid to shame people over things they enjoy I dont "music shame" anyone, just because i personally hate rap that doesn't mean i hate people who like rap
Alright, I have a couple things to say. 1.) First off, fitness shaming as I see it is ridiculous. Working hard to get to a point and then criticizing the person for getting to that point is ridiculous. I can only imagine the effort/dedication it takes to become to the point you and some others here are at. Insulting them is petty.
2.) The point of disagreement that I have with your viewpoint on the subject is the muscles-make-you-more-valuable-as-person mentality. For context, I shall relate the hardwork I have put into music over the years. I know that, on a general level, I have gotten to a point where I can outplay most people on musical instruments. I'm proud of it. I am happy with it. It wasn't easy getting to this point. I have to work each day with it to get better too and I'm constantly thinking about new musical ideas too.
However, I don't think that the abilities I own with that give me more value as a person compared to the guy next to me who doesn't play music. We all each have different abilities, drives, and motivations in life. Who is to say that one drive/motivation is better than the next guy's drive/motivation? How can one determine another's self value, esp. on the internet of all places?
I can get behind the pictures you post or would post on forums and stuff. Alright-- I mean you are just showing off your work. It'd be like if I posted a song I made and asked people to listen to it, or stated on a forum how much I love music and the dedication I spend with it. I don't consider that arrogance (all within reason naturally. Excessive posting is just spamming. Spamming is just plain annoying lol)
What I can't get behind is what I've seen some certain people go on GAG with... Basically insulting other people (albeit half jokingly perhaps), then finishing up with a aren't-you-jealous of me kind of comment (aka mirin). I'm not saying it is necessarily you, but I'll just say I see/have seen plenty of those around. Likewise, I may see em attribute a fight breaking out on here to a "you're just jealous and bitter because I'm jacked and you are a nerd" or whatever. Y'know-- stuff like that. It comes off as pretty arrogant when someone says something along the lines of "I'm not just better at you than this or that, I'm better than almost all of you as a person... Why? Because I'm jacked." It may be misc humor, it may all just be jokes... But it can come off as pretty arrogant with that.
Well said. I'm not really describing the guys or girls who just make comments here and there. I'm specifically referring to the group of people that take things a step further and make my takes and questions that obviously targeting the bodybuilder crew. All the pictures below were completely unjustified and out of context. humor is all great and if I make a post asking if they are Mirin then of course I expect some shots fired at me from at least one person but I usually joke back and get them to laugh with me. It's not a big deal at all in that scenario it's the people who take it to the next level and come at me for no reason at all.
And respectfully I disagree with you. If some guy is too lazy to take care of his himself.. Eat correctly.. And stay active.. I will not have respect for that person because they don't even have respect themselves. Some dude eating Cheetos and in n out every other day.. No thanks. No one has to be jacked but if you are not healthy and active then I won't respect you.
Yeah like I mentioned in point 1, fitness shamers are ridiculous. I agree with you on that viewpoint. Making a question or mytake about it is bad too-- it's like targetting a specific race to get a rise out of them. (Well, bodybuilder isn't race, but y'know what I mean lol)
As for the rebuttal to your second statement, I was more so referring to people who were jacked insulting people on a personal level who they don't even know. Like they may not have a picture up, they may have a profile that is private, and an accusation of being a cheeto eating in-n-outer is thrown. It can come of as a bit rude to presume-- same goes with general comments thrown at all GAGers.
However, as per if the dude is legit a cheeto eating in-n-outer, I believe the person deserves the same respect as each person, but also with a healthy dose of encouragement to get off their butt and get fit. They may have different drives and aspirations that make them respectable, even if their fitness game is weak atm.
Nevertheless, one can respect who they like. I mean, I'm not one to say you have to respect one dude or not respect another. That last paragraph is purely my viewpoint on the matter. That being said, I can lose respect in people if I get to know them and I find they have literally no drive in life. I just need to get to know them first or see their actions before casting doubts on a person's respect.
@Fearless_banana, This is, without a shadow of a doubt, my new favorite MyTake. Thanks for sticking up for the health community on GaG and the honorable Bodybuilding. com.
Your point about people being rude because they are jealous was very interesting and I had never given it a serious consideration before, so thank you for opening it up and explaining it a little more.
I do love the irony that critics of bodybuilding have, where we're all stupid apes who don't have a large vocabulary. Most of the don't know about Creatine, about Protein, BCAAs, the benefits of a push pull system or the difference between Anabolic and Catabolic or Pronated vs Supinated. They'd be forced to admit they're wrong if they ever listened to Jim Stoppani, the sikest cunt to ever alive.
"Fitness shaming" is just a generation of pathetic losers who would rather make excuses than make their lives better. Going to the gym and crushing your workout is such an awesome feeling, and once you start getting really strong the stares and comments you get from other guys wonder how you lift that much is priceless.
I bulked last winter and was about 190, I put 300 on the bar and a guy asked me if I was maxing out and needed a spot, told him not yet and repped out 8. There's also a guy at my gym, he's even smaller than me, he must be like 5'7" and I've seen him deadlift over 600 lbs. He's one of the smallest guys at the gym but I've never see anyone there lift more than him. Such a beast. Can't wait to I finish cutting and can bulk again. I'm only DLing like 450 right now, but I think I can get to 600 with a good 3 month bulk this fall.
Also, meal prep is not necessary. If you want to prep all your meals, that's fine, but modern day food is plenty healthy and nutritious that you really don't need to worry about anything other than calories. I eat lots of fast food, beer, bratwursts, and steak. I only bring it up to point that it's one less excuse that guys who don't lift because it's "too time consuming", which is BS.
There is nothing wrong if a guy is passionate about cars and posts pics on car forums because thats what car forums are meant for. However if he constantly posted pictures of his car on a question and answer website and talked about his hobby in a condescending manner by saying things like "check out that engine, zero to 60 in 4 sec, you mirin? the yeah people would probably accuse him of being arrogant. If he went around trash talking anyone who didn't have the same passion for cars or belittling people who didn't have the money to spend buying new cars then yeah he'd be perceived as arrogant.
Most of the people that have a problem with you have a problem with what you write, not what you have uploded as your profile pic.
"Building a proportional body with perfect symmetry and aesthetics is not an easy thing to do and most people don’t have the discipline to follow through with it."
I agree that becoming physically fit is hard work and requires a lot of dedication but being able to achieve perfect symetry and obtain those ideal ratios is largely dependent on your genetics.
First off, I agree with you that fit shaming is complete piss. In line with that, after reading your vintage car story in one of those takes you screen-capped, I started to understand a lot better what you and the other "gym people" are getting at and how hard you work to do what you do. Seriously, you really earned my respect with that one. (in retrospect, my father was a bodybuilder and a personal trainer, so I probably should have figured that one out a tad earlier :p )
What gets me is similar to dangerDoge's second point- you get people who respect people that work out, but not those who put insane amounts of effort into other things. I know this because I see it most days at school. You get the guys that just lift, plan the next party on the weekend, talk about different girls with each other and... well that's most of what they do. They also have no for others who have decided to use their time to pursue a different things and become incredibly skilled at them. To go back to your vintage car thing, the guy posting pictures of his cars wouldn't be called arrogant, he'd probably be called a weirdo, because he spends so much time on something that other people don't have his kind of passion for.
I'm going to go with the huge stereotype here and refer to video games.
I'm not even an avid gamer (used to be kind of, but they're falling out of my life slowly due to school), and even I know about this one. Daigo's famous comeback probably looks like a neat little thing that some nerd did in 2004, but the skill needed to pull something frame-perfect like that off is *insane*
A more personal one, I love carnivorous plants, and tropical botany in general, or biology if we want to go even wider. If I single-handedly opened and maintained a carnivorous plant nursery that won the Chelsea Gold Medal 20 years in a row, do I deserve the same amount of respect as Arnold Schwarzenegger? I've dedicated a huge chunk of my life to excel in a particular field and create something beautiful.
I guess what I'm trying to say is that you get some people that shame people that lift out of jealousy, stereotypes or some other thing and you get people that lift who shame people that don't lift and think of them as inferior, because they do something else that they enjoy with their time- and they're both as bad as each other. You shouldn't make fun of someone who is passionate about something, regardless of what it is.
That was well written. The only people I'm referring to in the take are the ones that will mindlessly come at you like that. As I was telling danger is that I can't respect someone who doesn't take care of their health and live an active lifestyle. By no means do you have to be jacked or muscular but for me to respect you.. you can't be eating cheetos and eating junk food all day if you catch my drift. It goes both ways forsure.
Thanks. And yeah, I think some people don't think before they type/say some things. It's really important to be able to see things from other points of view. As for the respect thing, I can see why you would say that, but I have mixed feelings about it. It's not hard to be healthy, you just don't lie about and eat shit all day. But that might just be me, because me having my dad cooking means I know how to eat healthily, and I am also reasonably active. On the other hand I know some people who are fat, and I just can't bring myself to not respect them, because they're good people. They've just made a mistake, or live in the wrong circumstances, i. e. unhealthy parents, nowhere to walk/run/cycle, "genetics", etc.. It doesn't make them bad people or anything, I just think it's unfortunate. So yeah. I kind of agree and kind of disagree with you there.
Only time I do it is if the girl has an ugly face and she's doing it to look better. If it's for health reasons, I don't care. I just find it funny when a girl with an ugly face tries to compensate for having an ugly face. I work out myself, so it's not a jealousy thing. It's just funny to see someone unattractive trying to look better when it won't work. I know a girl who is like this. She lifts weights, swims and goes hiking everyday because she wants to make up for her face. She tells me this and she says people make fun of her. I actually don't make fun of her. I cheer her on, but in my mind I am making fun of her. She just turned 31 and she's never had a boyfriend.
It probably sounds mean, but it's just funny the lengths some people will go to, and it doesn't work. If someone is getting into shape to be healthy, or they already look good and they're getting in shape I'll never shame them. My best friend is a beauty and she works out. She has a body I wish I could have but I've never shamed her. I compliment her a lot. She looks gorgeous and amazing. She's perfect.
You sound like an unrelenting bitch to be honest. You know it too.. that's why you went anon. So what is someone supposed to do in that situation.. just give up on life because she doesn't match your standards of beauty? Who's to say that she does do to impress terrible people like you? She might just like to live healthy and she chooses to make the best out of her life. 25-29.. it's women like you that seriously make me consider never getting married. Terrible barometer in life.. terrible cringe mindset.
@Fearless_banana yeah... how could you think that of a person, people don't choose their looks. I bet you she has everything she wants cause she's such a bitch.
@sweettckae In my experience it's the average to below average looking girls that talk like this. Used to be pretty shallow in how I dated. While the prettiest girls had a lot issues that made them appear batshit crazy they were humble when it came to topics like this.
@Fearless_banana I heard the same thing from everyone, I'm not sure if that's true or not. I always thought myself of as ugly, mostly cause I've been called ugly when I was little and that stayed in my brain. but regardless, no one should be called ugly just because some people look like Calvin Klein models or VS models... and others look like.. well not so beautiful. shitty world we live in.
Wasn't me that reported it. I haven't even read anything until now. I was shocked to see so many notifications. I've never reported comments on this site because people do it to me all the time when i make fun of their stupid questions. So either a mod removed it or someone else reported. Im curious about exactly what it said now. Anyway I've never actually made fun of her or anyone to her face. I even said I cheer her on even though I secretly make fun of her in my mind. she's not my friend or relative. I only know her through my sister. So i dont have to be nice. It's not my standard of beauty. She herself calls herself ugly too and almost everyday and so does everyone else, including her own mother. My sister told me that it has been going on since she was 12.
The "jacked dudes" I knew were complete total asshats.
Of course this was high school, and in college it was literally a hit or miss.
Of course I got tired of being fat and slow in martial arts. Even in my bad shape I've been in two fights and won both, mostly because I just used their ego to my advantage, but in training/sparing with my friends, I always get beat.
Of course, I want to be stronger, faster, and more efficient. My punches aren't strong enough, I get gassed too easily, my kicks are mediocre, and my takedowns are just bleh, hit or miss really.
I guess the point is figure out why you want to train, and just train. All of these cucks thinking they're better than those that dedicate themselves to their body are either jealous or insecure.
That being said, already started noticing my pants falling down on the tightest loop lol. Like anything worthwhile it takes dedication and commitment.
I looked at myself in the mirror and said "fuck this"
And here I am typing this out completely sore after lifting.
Best take I've ever read. People say fitness shaming doesn't exist, but it does. You choose to eat a can of tuna and a salad for lunch and people ask, "But you're already fit, why are you on a diet?" I'm not on a damn diet. I just believe in treating my body well. People tell you that you only think about yourself and assume you must be narcissistic because of the time you spend in the gym, looking over training plans, researching anatomy and nutrition. People maje jokes. My sister in law asked me if I was going to put my baby on a diet when I have kids yesterday. She was making a joke out of it. She likes make up. I don't ask her if she's going to put make up on her kid. Smh. Being a girl, people tell you not to lift because you'll get to big and just to "tone". It's a shame that being healthy is so rare in today's society that you're seen as a freak if you can't relate to everyone'a obsession with pizza. If you can eyeball macros and know where to stop eating.
People who are just lazy to do anything, don't know the bliss of exercising, The adrenaline rush is amazing. I like you take and the way you presented it, it is the inner thought of every person who loves to exercise and stay fit, it is for inner satisfaction not show off. Well people just look at the result appreciatively is another thing but we do it for ourselves not others. And for the idiots who think that exercise kills brain cells and make people primitive and stupid are the idiots who do not know that exercising keeps you healthy and witty mentally too.
Meh, I disagree. Different people have different hopinions. I started hitting the gym last here to get fit; since then, I go to the gym 4-5 times per week, and I still find it boring as hell, and nothing more than a mere tool to reach my goals.
@HereForAQuestion Well everyone has different opinion, people like me who have been in aggressive sports find exercising and playing part of our lives, it gives us satisfaction like no other and I find it fun.
I liked this take. It was so motivational. The good thing about it is that this thing applies to all aspects of life. You gotta love what you do, otherwise you'll give up.
The problem people here is that they don't want unnecessary pics of your body. If they're asking a recipe of cake and then you opine that he/she shouldn't eat it because it's unhealthy and post 2-3 pics to show how awesome your body is, they'll get pissed off. Do the right thing at the right time at the right place. Other than that, I agree, a lot of users are so insecure.
I think people just get too obsessed with each other online and in person. It's all jealousy. We need to realize that some people want to better themselves and their bodies more than others. BodyBuilders and people just really working out hard are just trying to make a better self. They like what's happening with their body and it makes them happy. Don't we all do things that make us happy, that probably other people don't like. But it's our lives and we choose how to live in. Keep living you life how you want sir and madams
Yeah it's stupid but when it comes to these kinds of people, besides half these people don't even know anything about fitness, bodybuilding or anything like that as evidence by your screenshots, just immature, folks looking to start crap.
And this day and age people will shame anything and everything they see, there is so much shaming and racism and nonsense now a days that the original words for this kind of stuff have lost all meaning.
And I have to laugh at that screenshot of the guy saying we're just meatheads who don't even have a hundred words in our dictionary *shakes head* That marine comment did kind of make me angry though.
I think everyone just needs to relax on what others do with their lives. I spend time with a very diverse group of people. I workout at my universities gym virtually every day. I know a couple other people that do as well. But I also know a lot of people who don't workout as well.
I think there is some shaming of working out just as there is of people who don't workout. I also find that the most insecure people at the gym are those that are on their first week there. You can tell because they start stacking on way more weight than they can actually lift and on things like bench press it gets annoying because you might have to save them when they lower the barbell on the first rep and can't bring it back up... Pride is an issue for a lot of people early on in the gym and then once they see how no one gives a shit about how much they're lifting they drop the macho act and actually take lifting seriously.
I never knew fitness shaming was a thing. Me personally, I live for the gym. It must happen twice a day for an hour. & I'm not doing to gain these ridiculous muscles or look a certain way, it's primary to maintain and was a improve my overall health.
I know a guy who is devoted to the gym. Comes in everyday same times with these massively intense workout and gets it done. People around him look at him like his crazy cause he has all these muscles and does some really weird things. He told me his ex military and these is something that was drilled into him. If he stops doing it, he doesn't feel right.
That describes me pretty well but yes fitness shaming is a thing it happens in real life as well. Someone yelled steroids at me across the room the other day on campus. Literally happens all the time
I' mot "jacked" by any means but I've seen people get talked about at the gym for being bulky. I don't see what the issue is to be honest. It's a lifestyle choice just like any other. & why is steroids frowned upon any way. The same people who say they don't like steroids are literally the same ones who would dish out $$$ just to watch female body building competitions.
Haven't you heard that being 'body positive', ie. basically encouraging people to be overweight and that there's absolutely nothing wrong with it, is trendy now? i2.kym-cdn.com/.../255.jpg
Excuse me, I don't mean to be rude in any way but, im pretty sure thats not a thing. Just because people Aren't dising overweight people, doesn't mean that you can make up something that is not real, and last but not least its not trendy it is people working to make themselves stronger, not to get jacked. Good Day :)
@SupFunny I made up something that isn't real? I'm at a loss as to what that is, please do specify.
I've also yet to see any article or story that is 'body positive' and saying anything about the featured individual making any sort of efforts towards getting more in shape. Sure, genetics go towards being in shape. As in your figure and metabolism. So yeah, if you've got a big ass, that could be partially due to genetics. The fact that sitting on your couch while watching TV and eating take-out makes your ass bigger is not genetics.
Sorry but this is total delusion, you are cherry picking stuff you don't like, but I've seen both sides doing the same, although, fat people recieve a hell of a lot of hate and shame, the "fat acceptance" bs just became popular a few years ago, but people has shamed other fat people for centuries.
I'm not saying being fat is "ok", but this is just another case of people on the "right" side feeling attacked by a minority, it's like christians who claim to be discriminated in the US or white supremacists who call racist those who call them out on their racism, maybe not as radical or ridiculous, but I think you get my point.
I think this a very well put together take which is perpetuated throughout and also contains a very mature approach. I would agree with most of the things that you've mentioned and I think it's just so sad why we believe we need to comment on others, it's their life, not yours. If you have a problem, maybe you should apply it to your own life. It's because of our social influence that we form schema's and stereotypes among our society and we learn this through agents of socialisation: primary and secondary. Personally, i've experienced a little myself but i can imagine how difficult it must be for people who do experience it much more because even a little bit can tear your confidence apart and really influence your decisions. Nice take though :)
Ahahahahahah they're all anonymous 😂😂 gee I wonder why. 😂 Jealous mofos. 😂 Fitness is awesome. As are jacked guys 😏 Although I do believe a lot of fitness crazed people need to step back for a minute and get checked for body dysmorphia because it's a real problem these days. Someone I knew died from it since he resorted to all sorts of fake steroids because he felt his body still wasn't good enough, even though it was. :/
I respect your grind homey👊 Takes crazy discipline to get where you're at, in and out of the gym. I go almost everyday and I'm not where you're at, the eating enough part always sinks me, haha, but I know what it is to go put in work day in and day out, and if there's anything I respect in myself, it's that commitment. So guys like you on that next level have my respect for sure, you're working even harder than I am. Good take, I've been seeing a lot of this lately. Keep on working up a swell💪
Good for you. Justifying yourself to assholes and biting on bait from obvious trolls is just a waste of your time.
The GIF at the end asks a question: the answer is that people believe that everyone really cares what they have to say. The irony of me posting that on a site like this, but this is the root of it all. All websites allow comments and likes/dislikes and basically encourage you to submit your thoughts on it. This seems like a great idea up until you read the average comment. All these pieces of human waste are convinced not only that you care what they think, but that their opinion holds so much weight it can and should influence you to come around to their way of thinking.
