Orthorexia and Muscle Dysmorphia: "The ‘Dark Side’ of Bodybuilding and Signs to Look Out For"

[SkyzykS]

Yeah. Life is too short. And often painful.

That’s kinda what’s behind my lack of appreciation for what appears to be dunking on overweight and/or weak. Like, Why make theirs harder? Why make them feel worse? I’ve often been outweighed and outnumbered, so when I see things like that I’ll come in hard and bring the pain every time.

All that having been said,

I suffered one in 2020 although not as severe as yours.

Very sorry to hear that. It’s hard to guage what & worse, and Definitely something to stay on top of, and for some, life changing. Mine certainly has. Truly wish you the best on that. If you want to shoot the bull feel free to drop in or post on my log too.

So, a little background- Age: 47 Weight: 173-175 Bodyfat- plenty! I’ve exercised in some form and been involved with athletics throughout my life. Wrestling from early on, conditioning for other various activities, bicycling, snowboarding, and just for fun. Sometimes just because. I’ve never been a mass monster. Usually just medium build, occasionally pretty lean, more recently just kinda blah. Pics will probably be added at some point. So, to get the ball rolling-in the morning of June 19…

Don’t sell yourself short. Not many people can do that well

I kid, but I’ve been very fortunate. Aerospace gives me the willies though. Aluminum gives me the willies. A 30% success rate makes me want to stay in my basement forever though.
