Isn’t that like Stockholm Syndrome or something?
I dunno. I’m not great with the technical terms. I just kind of understand the mindset.
Sam’s club carries Axel stretch jeans. They’re cheap and fit well. I actually have to wear a significantly smaller waist in them than I actually wear.
Someone needs to make men’s jeans that have a narrow waist and space for your legs and butt. I’m tired of finding something that fits my legs and bum, only to have to cinch the waist up with a belt. Or wear pants with a drawstring.
So Meadows will be releasing a program towards Athleticism with the Mountaindog principles. I’m excited!
I tried these and they felt like they were going to fall down if I bent over or squatted down. I wear Wranglers. I have three pair and they range from snug, loose, and baggy.
My wife suggested Wranglers this morning. Her dad has naturally mammoth legs and that’s all he’ll wear.
I had a pair of Calvin Klein jeans that did this. They were my favorite pair. Sadly, after about 7 years of use they recently developed a hole above the knee.
I’ve been wearing out my pants and now shorts in the same spot for a while. Right on the crotch seam. It’s annoying, I have 3 pairs of perfectly good jeans I need fixed up because there’s a hole right next to the berries.
That thick thigh life is no joke, huh? My jeans/jorts/shorts usually hold up just fine, but anything made of sweatpants material usually pills itself to death right in that area within a few months of regular wear.
Yea man, that’s where all my jeans die too … they usually last a good deal of time though, I don’t buy new jeans for a good 4 or 5 years, and I usually only have 3 pairs or so that I wear
See I wouldn’t mind as much if I actually had large legs, but they’re really not that big at all. Could just be crappy quality clothing.
My sweats and outdoor/athletic stuff holds up just fine, and I’ve been wearing that pretty exclusively since March which has been great.
mine never die at the seam where it’s fixable - usually just to the side of the seem a hole gets worn in after a while - likely due to having a desk job. Have had a couple pairs tear while at work - that’s always fun.
Moving away from the pants, but my work shirts fucking bust at the elbows man … granted they’re not the highest quality shirt, but damn man, I can barely get through a season without a new shirt or two going down at the elbows.
I do the same, any jeans i have last about 2 months before i chafe a hole on the exact same spot on the inside of the left thigh.
Maybe it’s some kind of nefarious plot by Big Dungaree to keep their sales up.
The last time I had thighs big enough to wear the inseam out on a pear of pants a buddy of mine jerked his phone out and offered the call the fire department ![]()

Hey, how about some confessions in the confession thread why not?
I confess that, in celebrating a family birthday, I had a cinnamon roll-esque breakfast and a donut with my lunch, and will be partaking in pizza and cupcakes later today. Currently flying to the moon with no end in sight.
I also confess that I bought some at home MMA mats since I’ve become an at home martial arts teacher due to quarantine, and it’s honestly one of the most exciting purchases I’ve made in a while. I think the flame may be extinguished on strongman and I may be heading back to my roots.
I also confess that I think some dudes just keep posting before photos and forget to include the afters.
I confess that mine isn’t going to change your opinion. ![]()
I’ve been in a “rebuilding year” trying to relearn how to cook better/differently, and make different food choices.
I still have a way to go on portion control.
If you never wanna worry about portion control again, have I got the training program for you!
