It’s because of all this that you just have to ignore everyone else and concentrate on your won physique. Get educated, train hard, eat right and evaluate your own results against where you were before. If you keep doing that who gives a crap how big your buddy is.[/quote]
Totally. It’s reassuring to see older (35+) lifters at their peaks. Puts the game in perspective and lets us younger guys know that it’s good to keep on truckin’.

that was awesome.
I’m very grounded within myself, in no small part thanks to excelling in academic and social contexts and picking up new stuff pretty fast, also athletic stuff, although my physical prowess, so to speak, mainly stems from being very strong whilst having good cardiovascular performance. I’m a decent athlete, alright, I might’ve even been great at oly lifting and wasn’t too shabby at track and field, but that’s about it.
With that self-aggrandizing statement out of the way:
apart from a few of my teenage years, I never had any problems with someone being better than me. In fact, having been privately tutoring during high school and university and later on students whilst being a research scientist, helping other to achieve their potentials, I learned that, although I’m pretty good at anything I pick up, there’s always someone better than me in certain disciplines. This didn’t only serve as a reality check, but I also realized I like helping people realize their potentials (professionally, I’ve been leading teams for the past 3 years).
It so happened that I’d helped some guys beat former PRs of mine, some of them having been all the rage in my training social circle. PRs, my body, whatever are just snapshots. They can be taken away anytime (injury, illness, death …).
And no, I hadn’t got much positive feedback in my formative years as a teenager to warrant my positive outlook on things, nor was it all sunshine and rainbows - I think it’s how you look at life (and, of course, how you’re hardwired).
Also, I like, savor and relish competition, and, at times, pursue it quite aggressively, but for me it’s not about crushing my competitors, but trying to broaden my own boundaries. So, no positivist hogwash, here (and I usually do crush my competition, but I’m not gloating, afterwards and usually break their weaknesses down for them - you’d be surprised at how few of them actually apply that for their next prep. I’m not afraid to lose, there’s (almost) always a next time, eh?).
That’s why I never envied ‘users’, nor downplayed their achievements, but am awestruck by some of the physiques in the amateur and pro ranks (I’m a 60s/70s aficionado concerning bodybuilding physiques).

Thanks. I like to keep things light and fresh around here.
I kept reading your post waiting for it to get to the point and in a round about way it did but was completely unsatisfying in its answer. Have you ever thought about getting into politics?

It’s not gay if you didn’t see it cumin’.
No, not anymore, unfortunately. Have you tried them? By the way, you look like you’ve tightened up, some. Cool.
I suffered a pretty bad injury in 2010 that forced me to lay off all pressing exercises and only allows me so much upper body work. Got hit by a shitload of other injuries later on (you should see the other guys, but I guess in your line of work you’ve seen what blunt force trauma can do).
I like to think I’m doing ok, maintained almost all my size, leaned up some (sitting at 230 lbs at 18% bf on a 5’7 frame) and got bigger and stronger in the legs and ass (GHRs, hypex, leg curls, high training frequency). I train each muscle after its own fashion (say, explosiveness rules my lower posterior chain training whereas elbow flexors and lats get a lot of TUT stuff) and don’t shy away from incline energy systems work and long hikes with my trusty old weight vest (80 lbs). The nature of my injury prevents me from doing powerful stuff for my scapular manipulators, though - and it shows.
Anyone: working up to heavy ass loads with tabata squats is pretty cool. Everyone should try it (barring any preexisting contraindications like sandy vagina).
