Good post X.
It’s reassuring to find that I’m not the only one who looks like they ran a marathon after a two-hour lifting session.
I used to think there was something wrong with me because I was the only guy in the gym breakin a sweat.
And along the lines of punk ass posers in the gym,
I saw a kid lifting in plaid shorts and a polo today. And to make things worse, his collar was popped.
I’m not against preppy clothing, but I wanted to drop that kid.

It would have been so much cooler if he popped the collar after a set of curls. It adds to the pump.
hmm. Im 16 and workout at my high school gym but, i do my best to learn what i can about bodybuilding/powerlifting/ just weightlifting in general. Now I workout really hard, but never really sweat excessively, and almost wish i had hyperhydrosia to sweat more. then i realised its a gift, and i should be happy with it. am I right?

Yeah. I’m all for showing sweat as a representative of hard work - but some of us sweat even when in shorts and a t-shirt in 40 degree weather. (Me. Today.)

Happy? Not so sure. You will never make it to the “cool club” if you do not sweat profusely during workouts.
Tip: When you are sure nobody is looking, splash some water around the collar of your shirt. Don’t just soak you’re whole shirt, because everyone will know what you’re doing, and you might never be accepted into the “cool club”, regardless of how much you sweat in the future.
On a more serious note: who cares? As long as you are busting ass.

Happy? Not so sure. You will never make it to the “cool club” if you do not swear profusely during workouts.

i definately swear profusely as to sweating
The other night I realized that out of the same people I’ve been seeing at my gym, only about 5 have made decent progress over the span of almost 3 years.
After that I got depressed a little.

lol, you can be my official proofreader.
I wish I sweated when I ate cereal in the morning…that is bad ass
I was doing Bulgarian split squats today, and when I was switching legs a guy on my rugby team came up to me. He said I should take a break because I looked like I was “working too hard”. I told him I didn’t think that was possible, and he replied with “Well, what if your bicep explodes”. I guess he’s right, if my bicep explodes from split squats I might have been doing something wrong.

No, that’s vaginitis.
On a completely unrelated note to the above statement, working hard = fun.
I have had conversations where people start talking about smoking and drinking and then ask me what I liked better. I said neither, and I got stares as I just told them I like having sex with bulls. They were still perplexed until I tried telling them that I lift for relaxation and enjoyment (plus for sports), but none of them could still comprehend this concept.
Oh well.

No exercise on this earth is worse than Bulgarian split squats. I finished my leg day with these and had to lay down on the floor for ten minutes for fear of puking when standing up.
I had someone ask me if I needed an ambulance…

Forget sweating, when you squat until you puke you’re winning.

This reminded me of Saturday(leg day). I was just catching my breath when this tallish bloke in a tank top walked up to the rack:
- How many sets to go?
- Five
He looked at me askance then walked away, promising to return later, and when he did he asked again. I was panting so hard, I just raised two fingers to show how many sets I had left. He watched me for half a minute and then:
- Are you into sport, an athlete of some kind?
- No. I’m a teacher.
- Why are you working so hard, then? For what?
- For myself.
I can only speculate as to what he was thinking, but he looked at me like I should be in Arkham. I felt so superior it was downright sinful:)
my hats are nasty, i launder them, but when i don’t the GF makes me keep them on the porch, they literally need to be wrung when i leave the gym. in fact on leg day or back day i don’t image there is much dry on me at all.
GF and i often hit the grocery after are workout, i walk through the isles drinking my PWO drink and stirring it w/ a chop stick (they’re disposable), point being we must look like sweaty street folk as mangled as we are when we shop for food. The difference being street folk don’t spend 500+ a month on food to feed two!
I always have a puddle of sweat dripping from my forehead when doing t-bar rows.
