The Flame-Free Confession Thread II

Good for you ahah. I have garbage genetics. Got carpal tunnel surgery at 27. Narrow shoulders wide hips, horrible teeth even though I’ve always brushed them… fuck me. And I can’t even grow a beard

Would you hate me if I told you I could grow one at 16?

I took my first steps into high school (11 years old) with a decent beard, standing at 6 foot 2 and 105kgs :joy:

I learned from a very young age that I was different ahah when in my handball team at 11 my teammate had an abundance of pubic hair and I was smooth. Now I’m 29 and still not a visible hair on my arms or chest ahah (or cheeks…)

I have a feeling “handball” meant something different where I grew up compared to where you did.

Ditto, dude. I grow some very scraggly hair on my chin, and my lower neck. It’s very attractive. Big smooth space in between, and nothing on the cheeks/jawline.

I saw. Sad news

Same here guys. The borderline chin strap I have is the douchiest thing next to a Tapout shirt, but I refuse to shave it off because it’s all I got. And it took 27 years to get here. No chest or back hair, and below average blonde hair on my legs. Also I’m like 30% grey already. I get constant comments on that one.

This is a level of self-awareness that even the most enlightened seldom reach. Douche on, bro.

Not one based on physique.

Not even the Charge of the Light Brigade?

I haven’t seen one of those in a long time but I immediately can picture the type of dude who’d wear one. Really cracked me up.

I put American Fighter and Fox Racing t-shirts in the same category.

The difficulty of a set can be measured by how you had to break up your counting to get it done. For example:

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 = easy
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 1, 2 = getting there
1,2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 3, 4 = moderate
1,2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 1, 2 = hard

It can’t be considered a max effort/to failure set if you counted each rep sequentially

The news is on and the anchor is talking about the impending destruction of Hurricane “Dorian”, which got me thinking: Whenever a new hurricane hits, some guy is probably thinking of an ex and nodding in sympathetic agreement at the description of devastation

I’ve got a family beach vacation booked for next week in Florida :joy: I’m hoping there is zero devastation

I hope your vacation goes well!

Confession-

Call it what it is, and it might be a “chewing off your nose in spite of your face” type scenario, but as soon as a trainer/coach/influencer says something along the lines of “my program is THE most optimal type of training/rep scheme for muscle growth and strength” then I’ll cease to read or follow any of their content
