I know but I’m saying he isn’t hitting his macro nutrients too. I know veggies are only important for the minerals and vitamins and that to become big and strong, you need enough carbs, proteins and fats and a caloric surplus. But he doesn’t have anything of that.

FUCKING LOL!!!
I had this conversation yesterday:
Him “You shouldn’t eat two grams of protein per pound of bodyweight. One gram per pound at the most.”
Me “Why? I’ve been eating that way for quite a while now.”
Him “Your internal organs will eventually fail. I just read that in a study.”
Me “Fascinating”
When I was 180 people would daily accuse me of doing steroids.
When I was about 225-230 people would daily accuse me of using steroids and that they were making me fat.
Then I cutted back to 210 people would still accuse me of using steroids and they said my new found vascularity would mean would I die of heart problems.
One of these people was my ex-girlfriend. One day I said to her “You know, it isn’t hard to find women that find people like me attractive.” That shut her up. But I still don’t have a response to the other people that say I use roids. Usually I ignore them, but sometimes it gets under my skin, anyone has a sugestion ?

Take it as a compliment from the ignorant masses, and tell them you’ll take a piss test if they pay for it

Well if there was ever a perfect opportunity to use the old “Haters gonna hate”
“You’re gonna hurt youself lifting that much.” (while deadlifting 385)
“I don’t lift cuz I might break my arms.”
“If my hand wasn’t messed up I would be as strong as you.” (I outway him by like 35lbs and outbench, outsquat, and outdeadlift him by over 100lbs)
“Do you work out or is that just natural muscle.”
“How much dou curl/bench/lift?”
“why don’t you play football?”
“Why don’t you run?”
“Do you workout all the time?”
“You drinking a protein shake?” (while drinking lemonade)
“Steroids are bad for you.”
“Big muscles are overcompensating for a small dick.”
“You need to stretch that lifting made you stiff.”
“How many pushups can you do?”
“Where’s your shirt?”
“I don’t wanna get big like you.” (I only weigh 184lbs)
“How big are your arms?” (They are only 16in)
if someone dropped a 90lb dumbbell on their HEAD im pretty sure they wouldnt try again after that because they would be in a fucking hospital, thats why its so hard to believe. tkm71

geezus gawd, we are in agreement for once haha
“how much do you (insert lift here)?”
-all of it.
“What do you eat?”
-babies
“how do you get big?”
-milk and squats
I’ll get the steroids accusations once in a while, and I just tell them I’d be a lot bigger if I did.
I worked as a substitute teacher for a while and I guess had plenty of careers. I heard I was an mma fighter, a marine, in the army, and a bodybuilder.

in the past I would pretend I had gotten a compliment and then I’d proceed to make fun of everyone for being out of shape, but eventually it starts to be a little annoying… then it gets just annoying… then it gets too freaking annoying and you can’t do anything because they’ll say you’re roid raging.
Also, has anyone here been called “disproportionate” ? I hear this quite a lot. Usually by skinny/fat people or those who have no idea of actual symmetry.
I’ve always gotten hey bro you play football, or steroidz or all that BS before.
Yesterday however was the first time in my life that I actually recieved a few comments that really opened my eyes to how people see me when I am out and I am glad that I am on the right track to swoleness and I am at the point where I am comfortable enough to say “I’m big”. I obviously strive to be Ronnie Coleman big, but that doesn’t mean the stages prior you can’t be big either.
I started the night off at a local bar and a guy spills his drink on me, and I am nice guy so whatever but this kid was so terrified that I probably could have told him to kiss my shoes and he would have gladly. Anyways he bought me two beers.
I next get approached by some dude and he asks me if I fight MMA, and I told him yeah man I do, and he begins talking to me and asking about my fighting style etc., gladly says that I’d kick his ass and then he’s like how old are you bro, I’m like 20 and this dude was in shock. Anyways we talked lifting etc., and then I left.
Leaving I talked to the bouncers who said I could come by on Monday if I was interested in a job.
Went to the club and I guess there were a lot football players there and they assumed I was on of them, again I got some compliments and free drinks because I was pretending to be on the team.
I go to this club a lot and the bouncing staff loves me there too, although it’s a pretty shitty place so I wouldn’t want to work there but they know I’m there to help if shit gets rowdy.
To top things off, I am dancing with some chick and I go to grab some drinks and this kid asks me the same question someone asked me earlier, “do you fight MMA bro?” Again I say yes, Jiu Jitsu and he goes who do you train with, I know every trainer on the Island, I say Benny Benis (Benny Benassi was the artist of the song that was playing and the only name I could think of to make up) so I am dying laughing and this kid literally believed everyword I said and bought me 3 fucking shots. So I am dumbfounded with how I spent 80 bucks last night when I drank for free all besides a couple beers.
O random aside, some kid out of nowhere passes me a bowl, and lets me smoke up with him.
Anyways, never been more fucked up in my life and never recieved more compliments about my size, apparent MMA background, playing football, and being a youngin’…Hahaha, maybe wearing this shirt had something to do with it.
Burn the shirt. Spend money on quality clothing or food (or if you want I’ll come and sharpie the words affliction on a white t-shirt and it’d be just about the same).
Wait, if you don’t actually fight thats fucked up shit
I’m not talkin “I go to ballys and take classes,” like have you had any actual fights - exhibition or otherwise, but something with judges present.

Agreed. It’s like Dumbo’s magic feather at this point.
It ain’t the fucking shirt.
Meanwhile, I did get a “damn, next time you come through let me take a picture of you” from one of the dudes at Kroger’s who get the steaks for me. I never got that before and no, it was not said in a “gay” manner.
Haterz gonna hate.

I just find it funny that MMA is now the goto when someone mentions muscles.
To me, it isn’t worthy unless they think I’m in the WWF. Otherwise, I might just agree with you.
I saw one of my ex-rowers this past week and the first thing she said was, “well Coach, looks like you’re bulking up again.” It’s always interesting when people you haven’t seen in awhile see you again after you’ve put some weight on.

Professor X - Monday Night WWE RAW. I could see it.
On of my wife’s female friends couldn’t stop looking at my upper body in a shirt… untill I said my face was up here.
