This thread reminds me of all the talk I was forced to listen to when i was younger

“back in my day we used to walk to school, with no shoes, no jacket, in the freezing cold and pourin rain. And boy, let me tell ya, there was no hot showers for us when we got home, or tea. I used to sit in the river with an auld tea bag in me mouth, drinkin the water from the river, and suckin on the tea bag- that was my cup of tea i tell ya. Jez, we’d be lucky to get a spud for our birthdays, and a sup of watdar- you young lads have easy, yas know no hardship.”

That was hilarious and even more funny because I read it out loud with an Irish accent. [/quote]

That was funny?

It isn’t just guys under 25 who have less motivation lately. The gym scene lately as a whole is pathetic. Too many soccer moms and people who go just to socialize have ruined what used to be a much more united and hardcore atmosphere.

However, there are much fewer guys under 25 who even seem to have the goal of looking big or strong. Most seem to be trying to go in the opposite direction and look more feminine.

The problem is with the types of people now attracted to most gyms and even to this website.

When you take a poll of the muscle development on most posters on a BODYBUILDING FORUM and 98% come back as having arms smaller than 15", something is fucking wrong.

If nothing else at least I can say I beat that number

Yups, also in the Netherlands the fitness craze hit in like a bomb. A lot of gyms got rid of the squat rack, no more dumbbells over 80lbs, more cardio machines, etc… And all this for making more money to target a broader group. Monthly subscription fees are dropping to make a difference these days, in most of these gyms you’ll have to pay extra for “services”. In some gyms you’ll even have to pay for a water and can’t bring your own bottle.

Weak is weak and no it’s more or less about shitting on people who post stats lifting for a month or less. Suck fuck you.

Hey Austin, shut the fuck up. This is a progress thread, not a pissing contest. Or am I mistaken?

Thinking os someone sitting at a river sucking the tea out of a tea bag because they have no hot water is pretty funny too me.

And…I tend to agree with you.

There are THOUSANDS of people who can log in and tell us what they WILL do. 5 years later, there may be 5 people who actually did it…and only one out of those 5 will actually look impressive enough for anyone to care.

No one cares what you PLAN to do if you haven’t proven your ability to reach any of those goals.

Lot of hating going on in this thread

Stalling a bit as of late. 2 years of serious training.

Obviously this info means jack shit without pics/vids, but you’re not going to get any. Anonymity on the internet is incredibly important to me.

Funny you mention “tough guy”. In most of your post you come off as a total douche bag. I hate the term “muscle head” but I think it fits you quite nicely.

If you don’t know what strong when here somones numbers than I feel sorry for you.

Apologies for being a douche. I have a head ache, allergies and I’m hungry. I did lift today and my I hit PRs but I’m still cranky. Anyways I guess I just hit my breaking point on this site. I haven’t posted much because I’ve been dong that kind of stuff elsewhere. The idiocracy just annoys me. Anyways the point is, there is no logcal point in posting low numbers. It’ll be much better to post up something semi impressive and then get some praise. The only apology I give out is bashing the guys who posted stats, although I still stand strongly by my opinions. Everyone else who chimed in @ lol at how I can get under your skin over the net.

This was exactly my point, and really the only issue I have with this thread.

The word is ‘idiocy’. Idiocracy was a movie.
