Shirt Shrinking Woes

I’m gong to be showing my age here, but when you say “top dollar on really nice jeans” - I have to wonder where you are shopping.

Seems that the most expensive jeans look as though one of the local tractor mechanics have already worn them out and then resold them to A&F without ever having them washed or patched.

I remember when new jeans were actually blue, and free of holes.

Like I said…showing my age.

You should see the other guy.

Don’t let size become an obsession.

Eat a lil better, lift a lil heavier. Do it to be stronger, healthier, to look better.

Do it to give your life a kick. A bright attitude, more & better sex, higher confidence, greater strength, a fitter and healthier body.

Those are the sorts of reasons we lift for. I’ve seen too many lifters go from skinny, and run straight through a perfect shape - just to end in humourously outsized body. And a bright attitude never comes attached.

Just don’t miss the forest for the trees.

At 190 lbs, you’re not exactly skinny.

I’m 190 now, at my biggest I was around 203-205, but I’ve been fighting at 170 the last few months with um, shaky results. So I figured it was time to get back to adult sized.

So yeah, I got beat up in that pic, but not as bad is my last fight (10 stitches, broken nose, etc.)

I put a few pics of from about 4 different fights up in my profile so I don’t have to clutter up the forum with them.
