When you tell your coworkers you are doing a diet consisting of nothing but protein shakes, flax, and PB for 28 days and they aren’t at all shocked.
Catching people staring at your bicep is a regular occurance.
You only have 3 shirts that fit you and next month you’ll have to buy more.
Your postman is bigger than you from carrying all your supplements.
1-When your desk drawer at work looks like a cabinet at home.
2-When you have a small blender in your drawer
3-When you eat whole chickens from boston market for lunch w/ a large orders of veggies.
I am guilty of all of these sadly.
When T-Nation isn’t just one of your favorites, but it’s just an alt-tab away at all times.

You put off a date with a amazingly hot girl beacuse i ruins your squat/bench day. So you meet her at 10pm when you cant actually do or go anywhere with her as you both have work early A.M the next day. You have been after this girl (she doesnt know this) for 5 years. She is actually a model, is gorgeous/stunning and immensly cool as a person. But actually the date DOES interfere with your Squats and Bench session so I guess you know your serious when you do something like that.

You seem to have confused ‘hardcore’ with ‘retarded.’

lol agreeded
When random people from class asking you whats wrong if you don’t eat. ( because you forgot your food at home )
When you forget to reload your gym bag with gym shorts, end up working out in your dockers, split them from waistband to knee on your second set of squats, and complete the next hour and 15 min of your workout with your ass hanging out of the back of your pants. At least I had on clean underwear.
When you have a eating plan at the dining hall at college, walk in with 3-4 zip lock bags, walk out with those bags filled w/ baked chicken, kidney beans, and if they have it, lean beef.
And then going back to your room to weigh it all on your digital scale before you eat it.
When you become a walking water fountain

Guility…glad to hear I’m not the only person in the world.
When you getting ready for an outside workout (uphill sprints, sprints supersetted with travelling lunges…etc.) and it’s hailing and windy, but you do it anyways otherwise it would screw up your week as to when you do each workout.
Did that this morning, stupid hail.

or retarded.
When you do calf raises in the tanning bed.
how about you know youre hardcore when you stop with all try-so-hard b.s. and you just do it. when you stop overworry about the stupid minor details like omg what is going to happen to me if i miss training this day because i have something else really important. if you blow off a date with a really hot chick just so you can hit the weights you arent hardcore, youre a pretender.
real hardcore guys just do what they gotta do, they take shit serious 24/7 without having to be told to do so. you just do it and thats it. youre hardcore when you can assert yourself that way and not have any doubts about it.
you arent hardcore if youre on a fad diet just because. you arent hardcore because you think you eat so much cleaner than someone else, you arent hardcore if you think the world will end if you miss a training day.

Lets replace the word “hardcore” with the word “dedicated” and stop talking.
I like plain tuna sandwiches. Except I replace the bread with tuna.

But he’s hardcore because he has no heat in his home.
Listen Live - I can relate. I don’t have air conditioning.
the thread actually started just saying you know your serious about your body…nothing about hardcore, dedicated, retarded or any combo of the three
