Yeah 99% of people's complaints are stuff they could change but refuse to put the effort in. Doing something hard, religiously, opened my eyes to this. So now my natural reaction to some situations is kinda fucked cause I just come across as the condescending shit head trying explain this basic principle of effort and reward.Brother... I know!!!
That happens to me almost weekly. We'll be out and I'll say something about a jacket dude. My girl will turn and say... "You're much bigger than him" or something like that. I just don't see it... all the time. Even though everyone treats me differently in public. I just don't see it in myself.
Maybe 1 day a week I'll feel like the baddest mother fucker on the planet. But the other 6 I'll feel like that weak pathetic 137lb guy I was 3 years ago.
It's funny because my entire lifestyle has changed in the past 2 years... well really the last year. I watch nothing but bodybuilding and powerlifting shit on YouTube. When we go out in public I spend more time pointing out jacked dudes instead of pretty girls (even though we both like pretty girls) more and more of the people I spend my free time talking to are big dudes. I've grown a pretty close relationship outside of the forum with you and @JesseTX plus a few other guys from FB. This lifestyle has completely changed almost every part of my life.
2 nights ago we were laying in bed and my girl said, "I have a feeling that pretty soon my house is going to be filled with a bunch of big ass dudes"
I had to make the joke "does that thought get you wet" then she gave me a dirty look....
But I think she has a point. I don't talk to a lot of my old friends anymore. Lifting has completely taken over so much... if the person doesn't lift... I don't know what to talk about.
I've even got to drop the Arnie quote in when people tell me how they train and I attempt to steer them toward gains, and they tell me, but I don't want to look like you....
"Don't worry! You won't!"
I have more to talk about to a random gear head in the supermarket than I do people I used to hang out with.
Those side by sides have been getting much love from everyone that's seen them. I got some swelling and depth but your condition and proportion is better. Seen by natties who lift EoD, not ashamed to admit we look fucking good.
