It’s easy for me to see how plenty of people can not make progress in the gym - it’s hard work and you have to be dedicated outside of just lifting the weight as well.
What I’m not clear on is why those people end up on a bodybuilding site and stick around.

easy for me to see
I mean, there are some pretty funny people on here. not to mention some of the shit that gets brought up.
plus, it’ll always be easier to sit and chit chat about some new uber-hypertrophy bonzai plan than to actually go to the gym and lift weights. and shit, why even go when you can just sit back and talk your way out of posting a friggin picture or two?
i think for every post regarding training i make, i’ll put out 7-10 posts between the GAL/SAMA/warroom along with the ‘hey you look sexy, tell me what you do’ posts in RMP/performance threads.
i mean, you can’t talk shop ALL day. at least being a 22yr old immature college student i can’t.
granted, this could all change if we’d stop having so many d.bags on the site, and get a few more serious posters who’ve actually acomplished anything in the gym.
while it’s great that everyone is making ‘progress’, it doesn’t help anyone who’s in my shoes when i only have about 4-5 people i can bother about questions or advice.
i do not pick and choose who goes in the t.cell i def think you’d be a good addition though.
granted, this now opens the door for every dbag on the site to make a ‘hey am i good enough’ post.
stop being a bitch when it comes to deadlifts.
i still can’t get over that dude posting a picture of him in that shirt with the liquor bottle. what that was supposed to prove i have no idea.
btw, is octobergirl still in the alpha? i don’t even think that chick works out. curious as to what she’s doing there (if she still is)[/quote]
Lol, I really didn’t want it to turn into that ‘I’m good enough post.’ That is why I put the ‘kicks dirt’ after my post. I wasn’t actually too worried about it.
You called me out on the pictures, so I posted them, that is all.
I didn’t quite understand the liquor bottle picture either, ha.

Haha I guess you have a point. I rarely go outside of the BBing / T-cell forums so I don’t get to see entertainment besides the ridiculous amounts of drama we seem to get over here.
I agree about it being a shame there are so few people here that have had long, successful lifting careers. There seem to be at least a decent number of guys our age who will end up in a similar position but who knows if we’ll stick around the site. If the bigger guys keep leaving and the posting quality continues to get worse there won’t be a point except for whatever hilarity goes down in the SAMA and GAL forums.

Holymac alone has blown most of the haters out of water yet they keep complaining. Funny shit.
bah. its whatever
honestly i just wish there were more guys here that need to wear shirts that are XL or bigger, and when they look down can still see their dick.
i currently think the forum has at most, 20. sad state if you ask me.[/quote]
I’m getting there, brother. I’ll have new photos out at the end of summer.

She does, IIRC. She works with a trainer who knows what he’s doing. She can answer for herself though. I blocked bodybulgebabe a long time ago because I couldn’t deal with the fat woman on a bodybuilding site who came here more to try to flirt with jacked men then talk about lifting weights.

Ah, been wondering where you were…gangs all here. We will now start the thorazine injections.

Well, since you can access drugs for free all day, cause that’s what pharmacists do, how about we hook up some intravenous morphine and really get chilled out together

Damn dude, you need to ease off the halo or tren, seriously. You have the worst fucking attitude I’ve seen on this site. Stop being so agressive. Its just a message board…have some fun.
[/quote]
Aggressive? It was a joke. I suppose you didn’t find the humor. But I do enjoy the “tren/halo” comment. A nice little jab you throw while trying to undermine my accomplishments. All is good though, maybe you need to lay off the Big Macs. Have some fun, do some cardio.
zarrs…i don’t even understand the point of you posting pictures. you’re freaking rediculous. how you even rationalize that shit is beyond me.
i don’t like all these members saying 'oh hey i gained 50lbs in the last x amount of years. if you started off at 125lbs, i don’t give a shit. onemorerep might be the ONLY exception on here. if you looked like a holocaust victim from the beginning you have a LONG way to go.
it’s like some posters feel they should get credit just for reaching puberty.

lol wow boys looks like a sweet spot has been hit and you are all bursting into tears, I don’t recall being one of these haters but I also had nothing to hide in terms of progress either and never asked for credit and wouldn’t have posted if my name wasnt mentioned and I rarely get caught up in the my dick is bigger than yours threads as I freely admit I’ve been training 12 months and my goal wasnt size but weight loss I’ve reached that and now my goal has changed.
I was going to post different pictures today show size gains but I am not going to bother I would hate to come across as some one that thinks they are more developed than they are, im grounded in what I am doing.
I actually think my post was defending the t-cell ( not the pick up one that was a joke) but what ever
P.S next time you ask for stats and pics dont assume the poster is looking for credit
