You know, I am kind of upset with you guys saying that because you have built a decent physique it is acceptable for you to wear tight revealing clothes to a club and not look like an idiot.
Keep going with this argument and I will post pictures of Guidos that have built a decent physique wearing similar clothes in public. It’s not cool, its gay. Keep going with this crap…I will fill these pages up with losers like this that have a decent physique and dress how you describe. After all, he is wearing the shirt as it is designed to be worn so it is acceptable…right?

Dude, to be perfectly honesty I really wouldn’t spend much time caring what another guy was wearing. It’s just not that important to me.
Those club guidos are obviously idiots, with waxed eyebrows and enough hair gel to sink a battleship - there’s so much wrong with them that the shirts they’re wearing are the least of their worries…
That said, I’ll reiterate that I do not own any UA. There are lots of clothes that don’t look clownish (like Superman/HeMan and his shiny silver sausage casing - the funniest thing I’ve seen in a long time btw) but are still body conscious and certainly acceptable to wear.
I’ll tell you what, if you see me somewhere and don’t like my shirt, just come on over and tell me. But please stop posting pictures of those mongoloids - I beg you. ; )

I could certainly pull of wearing UA. I wouldn’t wear that to a club. It’s a douchebag move.
I also don’t wear velour to clubs - or anywhere else. I also don’t spike my hair, or put highlights in my hair. I also don’t say, “bro” or act like I’m in the mafia.
See a pattern?[/quote]
Cali, I agree, these people are immensely irritating. But then again, all cocky/overconfident people annoy me - as they have failed to realise that there will always be someone more accomplished than them.
However, if you think about it, are you not showing off with respect to “not showing off”…?
has anyone else noticed that there is something seriously f’d up about his shoulders. they seem to slope downward severely as if they were melting away from his neck. what caused that?

Why is this man paid to be less muscular than me and you? Why do people think he’s in exceptionally good shape?[/quote]
Back to the original topic, here’s my female perspective:
Mr. McConaughey looks pretty damn fine to me.
On this entire forum, the predominant mind-set seems to be that there is a direct correlation between big muscles and being fit. I don’t agree with that at all. I’ve seen guys with massive arms, chests, and legs who can’t even walk up the stairs to the weight room without panting and sweating.

Well, I have a couple of form-fitting Malibu Bodywear shirts - I’m pretty sure I don’t deserve to be “executed on the spot.”
That said, I’d be cautious about deciding what looks good and what looks overbearing and idiotically flamboyant, but if you’re jacked, showing it off a bit never hurt anyone.
Would you like it if someone went around touting the degrees they have or the money they have? You would probably think they were being a pompus ass or somene trying to get approval from someone.
Again compression UnderArmour as a fashion=Attention whore.[/quote]
I wear compression under armor underwear, the long stuff that comes down to your knee, just so my legs don’t get chaffed to hell when I Sprint or run, also for some reason they feel much better than loose boxers when going into a deep squat. So I think they do offer some benefit down in the gym. But I to think somewhat poorly of the people who are wearing it when terribly out of shape.

OK I agree with this, but it doesn’t matter how fit a guy is if he looks skinny with clothes on.
I worked with my wife for over a year before she saw me outside of work. She came to my house for a cook out and I was wearing a tank top. At that cook out she said she had no idea I was built. She said it was simply not visible through my clothes, even after over a year of working together.

I just don’t see anything wrong with wearing body conscious clothing.
Maybe we’re talking over each other’s head. If by “body conscious clothing,” you’re refering to UA/tight shirts… those are off limits. If you mean a man should simply wear nice clothing/clothes that fit properly and aren’t sloppy, then we have no disagreement.
I have to agree here. If “body conscious clothing” means basically you are wearing a wetsuit out in public then my vote would be no.[/quote]
Geezus! Now wetsuits are off-limits? No UA, tank tops, velour, parachute pants, zoobas, and now wetsuits? What the fuck am I supposed to wear out to clubs??? Next thing you know, someone is going to tell me that a mullet doesn’t look good.

Actually it wouldn’t bother me at all.
I own two houses, have an impressive bank account, am on track to receive my advanced degree soon and like to wear stuff that shows my hard work in the gym. I’m not trying to get any kind of approval for any of it, it just is what it is - a fact. Should I feel like a prick every time I mention my summer home in conversation if it’s appropriate to the subject matter, or invite friends up there for the weekend? Or talk about school, or training?
I don’t feel insecure, or angry at anyone for enjoying what they have. If the rest of the world is privy to that enjoyment, I don’t see how that’s a big deal.
You don’t want to be compared to this guy…
hahah i am constantly surrounded by jersey guids, and at one point i made a hilarious fake myspace profile using that same guy’s pictures. the actual douchebag actually found it and sent me messages in some seriously fucktarded vernacular i had a hard time deciphering…
Oh, puh-leeze say you still have the messages and that you can copy/paste them here for us…
[/quote]
hahah i don’t have the messages anymore but i can humor you with two great links:
To tell the truth I haven’t read all the posts, but I believe this particular actor, (tried to spell his f@#king name but was too pissed, and lazy to look it up, but we know who it is, the guy from Sahara), is going after the athletic look. And he achieves it.
I would like to achieve a more athletic look myself, but every time I get in the gym it’s um…well, maybe next time, for today I’ll just focus on the strength/huge muscle aspect. Hey, he’s gone after the look he wants to cater too his audience, which is mostly female. I could care care about appealing to the mass of females out there, since I’m already married and don’t need to.
All I need to do now is grow the way I want to, and I’d rather a Park, Pearl, Draper, Arnie, Ferrigno, Mentzer, Viator, Coe, look than look like this guy. But I wouldn’t mind haven’t a little more definition like this guy currently since I’ve been drinking waaaayyy toooo much lately.
To each his own, and what he does seems to work for him, may it work equally for us all!
