Let's be honest, if you don't go the gym and hone your body into the best shape it can possibly be you're doing it wrong. I can't fathom anymore the mindsets of people who don't go the gym, of people who are content with being average and unremarkable. I've been going the gym for just over a year now and I can honestly say it's completely changed the way I view life.
brb strong as hell
brb in great shape
brb working out inspired me to keep a healthy diet
brb stand out from the crowd
brb respect from guys, girls wanting my body
brb much more confident
Used to stay inside all day playing games, writing fan fiction (the fact that at one point I was writing 3 Halo fan fictions on this site says it all really) and being depressed with my life. Almost as soon as I started working out the bouts of depression I used to have completely vanished, I realised there was more to life than gaming and internet and started going out. Now a year later I'd consider myself an extrovert.

Why don't you work out and why doesn't your body look as good as mine? If you do and it does, good for you.

Edited by The Fallen Zyzz: 12/5/2014 8:52:51 AMI agree with some of your points. If you don't exercise and allow your body to fall into disrepair and waste away, it is a waste of Human potential. Myself, I train away from gyms for two reasons: I'm not fond of the crowd and I simply don't have the money to blow on a gym membership (maybe I will soon, but, not today). I train exclusively to reach my peak in terms of strength and endurance. I don't really care for aesthetics. I don't train for the approval of women or to intimidate guys. I congratulate you on your transformation, by the way. Regardless of your motivations. Although, I don't approve of what you're doing here. Training doesn't make you superior to anyone else. Some people choose to train and some don't. Don't hold it above other people in order to put them down.
