Is there anything more pathetic than people obsessed with bodybuilding?

Don’t get me wrong, I like lifting and the gym but the bodybuilding craze is at a whole new level of stupid. Some people must have nothing going on in their lives to be so obsessed with bodybuilding.

brb watching rennaissnce periodization 24/7
brb obsessing over other mens bodies
brb go watch the competition at some chit expo center
brb spend $1000 to take the fam to the expo
brb Sam Sulek and Mike Israel
brb spend 7 hours a week at the gym
brb trying to be as big as possible for no reason
brb dumbbell tattoo on my chest like an idiot

I’m down for watching Sam Sulek videos on Monday, but that’s it. And if I miss it, the highlight channels are good enough. Imagine investing all of your free time for 6 months to watch a bunch of grown men lift weights and drink protein shakes, and in reality 31/32 lifters will end their year in disappointment. And the winner gets to hold a trophy over their head, lol. JFL

100% agree. Even when I was obsessed with the gym it was mainly spending 2 hours as the gym 4-5 times a week and thinking about my eating all week. THAT was a lot for me too and looking back kind of felt like a waste of time and effort. Watch some youtube videos and have fun with the bros throwing some weight around.

But the bodybuilding or even the powerlifting scene now is just extremely gay imo. Like way too vain about it all and maybe it is just me getting older but it's all so lame and pointless. Unless you are making some good money doing it, it's retarded.

Just workout hard, eat in a way that makes you look and feel good, and enjoy life.

You're right boyo, I'm gonna give up dieting and lifting and live a more natural lifestyle, eating chips and drinking pop and watching tv all day.

You only lift 1 day a week as is. And everyone knows you're sneaking chips and pop along with sweets and chocolates.

Might as well stay doing what you're doing bro. You only have about 1 hour a week invested.

7 hours per week at the gym is too much?

lots of body dysmorphia in men nowadays...and autism which helps with bodybuilding.

throughout most of history men focused on their bodies would be considered homosexual in nature. the jews like weider figured out how to flip the script and make men as vain as women....lots of money to made when it's not just women focused on vanity.

I have a weight problem and lifting and cardio helps me bring my weight down. Following Sam Sulek inspires me to stay in the game, I have a history of getting into and out of lifting, I’m trying to stay consistent.

Not really. Anyone can have a full on hobby. Could be gaymes, books, action figures, art. I think people who collect and go all the way in on a hobby is cool interest.

And with the misc, its pretty vast so there's alot of things you can do with it.

Bodybuilding requires high structure, consistency, tracking etc. It enables autists to avoid addressing their biggest crutch, personality.

Which then leads to cope and irrationality wrt the importance of looks, red/black pill etc.

Definitely a correlation.

If youre doing it to get in good shape and improve your life, then hell yeah. And if Sulek helps you stay motivated to stey in the game, then keep doing it.

Bro even outside of bb, dudes are getting surgeries to get taller and getting whatever nonsense of this clown world

I'm like super super not into niche things today and grew up way isolated from reality (believe me sheltered isn't even the right word). I remember some coworker in the past talking about a dude who wears makeup. I was like nah guys don't wear that chit. I couldn't believe to find out they do.

I rmb my parents visiting me once during libtard month and we were out and saw the trannies and gheys all out flashing their dildos in public and my parents legit didn't understand it. I felt embarrassed on their behalf. My mom covered up looked so outta place lmao.

BB is just one issue it seems lmao

Yeah bro they were def way better off back a generation or two ago.
My dad grew up in a remote village drinking camel milk and goat milk from the tits straight and eating goat meat and camel meat and that Shepard lifestyle. Every day it was that and some other stuff and tea. Simple stuff. A lot of fish since it was coastal as well so you'd catch and eat it same day.

I was autistic for a period and I remember my dad would legit get pissed off at me for having a scale and weighing my food. He couldn't grasp it fking lol man what good times srs.
