i get it all bro. i never pay any attention to these comments, i laugh at them. once someone, a friend of a friend said that i bbuild b\c i use to get bullied, with some guys this is the case...this is what he thought till he saw pics of me at 15. lol

ACEPLUMBING · 07-24-2007, 02:10 PM

usually get dumb things like "wow! are you a wrestler?"

GG1 · 07-24-2007, 02:17 PM

nowadays i get the death look from people at my gym.because everyone thats been there since ive signed up at the gym thinks im on gear.

when i originally signed up...i was a twig lol..and was weak as hell

2 yrs later im about 80lbs heavier and very strong for my age...so i guess hard work does pay off big time

many people are supportive of me and tell me i look great, while there ofcourse is the bunch that think the opposite and try to take me down...like just because im bigger then the average 15 yr old doesnt make me a bad person..i think thats the 1st thing that goes wrong from people meeting bodybuilders..everyone immediately assumes we are total *******s because we have alot of muscle..and somehow think we are better then everybody.

i for one am an easy going person who just happens to enjoy bodybuilding and trying to push myself beyond limits...is that so bad? lol

thats why i usually keep to myself while training...idc what others around me think..because the only truth is the mirror starring back at you...i dont need someone who is a weekend warrior at a gym telling me what to and what not to do..thats why i come to you guys for advice lol..cause you give the best advice and comments about me then anybody else does

lil_big_junior · 07-24-2007, 02:24 PM

good for you bro^^^
i love your attitude

**moorey** · 07-24-2007, 02:30 PM

The day people don't pass remarks will piss me off, at least if they are making negative or positive remarks, theyre recognising me as a bodybuilder .

chrispghmuscle · 07-24-2007, 02:33 PM

I'm not that big yet to get comments like that.. But I do get some asking if I'm going to compete or have competed yet.. Which is cool. I dont see myself that way right now. But eventually I will cross the line when I will get the same reaction that everyone else is getting, I'm thinking when I get closer to 200 lbs.

That weight may change things for me. Then i need to do the cut down phase.

bbdude · 07-24-2007, 03:24 PM

i do get comments like: are u juicing?
but mostly i get positive comments, cause big guys here is a rarity... and the myth about shrinking penises isnt known here... so i mostly get: wow, ure a big guy! or: i feel small next to u!^^

kenney · 07-24-2007, 03:51 PM

i dont get any steroid remarks. from girls its normally 'i can tell you work out' 'you are majorly fit' and occassionally 'i would love to shag you' lol from lads its normally 'what should i do to get muscle' or 'you're just lucky'

yotajay · 07-24-2007, 04:11 PM

MOstly positive from my close friends who knew me from when i was obese at just under 300 pounds they say things like your doing great looking good etc etc.

The best is getting the hot women in the bar coming up to me and asking me to flex my bicep or let them hang off of my arm hahaha nothing beats that..

I do get the dumb ass jealous guys who say my penis is small, or I was bullied or that im a juice monkey but I brush that **** off when I leave the bar with their girlfriend haha

kenney · 07-24-2007, 04:17 PM

lol nice one yotajay!

I get that same ****. I was moving a bunch of heavy **** into people's dorms here on campus on move in day about a year ago and I got the " man are you a wrestler or football player here?" I just laughed and said neither. Or the high schooler that asked me in the gym the other day when he was visiting the campus, " Do you play football here?". I will say I enjoyed that comment, cause the football players here definitely are some big boys, and no I'm not a fatty either.

**Kirk** · 07-24-2007, 07:16 PM

how true that is...^^

**Kirk** · 07-24-2007, 07:18 PM

my fault, was quoting up to lbj...yea cmart i cant stand being referred to as a wrestler or football player...im neither, i actually was a soccer player but who would have guessed that!

Beefcake · 07-24-2007, 10:19 PM

Everyone at my school thinks I'm on steroids. I always get "Oh, football player? Lineman?" "No, Fullback" "NO WAY!

"

lil_big_junior · 07-24-2007, 10:33 PM

the best ones i get is...' SO HOW MUCH DO YOU PUSH ' i say i don't work out, then they ask so ' HOW MUCH STEROIDS DO YOU TAKE, cos you can't get that big without them '
i say, i don't do steroids & i don't train, & i hardly ever eat, they get so pissed off & frustrated at me, they just walk off, lol
unless it was a girl, i play about with them a bit more

this happens once a month atleast, when guys ask me these questions in this sequence, lol, it's totally mind boggling for them to understand me taking the piss out of them, proper head ****ing with drunk guys is funny, if they start a fight, WELL, lol, i guess i asked for it. LMAO

aleksandar · 07-25-2007, 02:40 AM

people at school call me big boi lol and ask me to flex all the time

id hope you would have changed after 2 years of training, just goes to show their lack of devotion to their own training, they have gained nothing so YOU WIN

mvillelifter · 07-26-2007, 06:38 PM

I do train because I have Napoleon Complex BIG TIME. I'm only 5'3 or 5'4 and almost 18 so I figure if I'm not going to get taller...ill settle with being as wide as I am tall. Oh...and I ALWAYS get asked if I've been juicing.....I just take it as a complement and say "half a cup a day"

Im sooo trying this lol thats the funniest thing ever

bboy mysterious · 07-27-2007, 01:17 AM

yeah, even though i'm not that big at all, everyone keeps saying that i'm on roids or something and i've only been lifting since january of this year.

It's kinda irritating though cuz they over do it and i'm small, yet.

Mygeeto · 07-27-2007, 04:44 AM

they call me BIG FELLA where i come from, but that in itself is misleasing and could be refering to one of many things

i ALWAYS get the small penis thing.. ohh bodybuilding makes your doodle small... so i shoot back "yeah thats why i NEED to bodybuild"
people come talk to me about steroids and other stuff soo much that i hate the word steroid now. the word steroid is associated with bad physical and underlying health conditions. i prefer the word anabolics more.

teachers always say nice things about me.. my WRS teacher MR.B was once a bodybuilder...so we have a bit of a mentor/apprentice friendship. its really cool.
im not the only one who lifts weights at school, but i AM one of the very very few who look like they do.

people who im not friends with rarely ever say anything, but my friends and family say when they walk around town with me they catch people eyeing at my arms or what not all the time, even nudging thier friends to check me out. i dunno if they really do or not, coz i dont ever catch it but i guess i take it as a scilent compliment.
