Some are so obsessed with muscles that they have forgotten what fitness is about: being healthy.

What he said ^^

Also most guys don't know how to train. Seems more of a social convention in some gyms than a place to work out lol.

I don't go to the gym anymore so above stats are useless.

Why do the adonis gym goers care about what other men are doing in the gym? Are you that much of a raging homosexual that you're turned off by looking in the direction of a guy who doesn't have a slim waistline?

Probably because you're spending too much time checking dudes out in the gym and not focusing on your work out.

Why do you have no traps and horrible posture(shoulders rolled forward)? Do you sit like that to give the illusion that you lift?

Seems like the case with older gym goers, as for the rest, not everyone cares enough or knows what they're really doing.

Most people at my gym do not have a gut wtf

There are however some fat guys there that have been fat for years. Dont understand why they dont do cardio instead of lifting every day. Would make them look so much better. Their choice tho so can’t hate

Easier to lift weights and go on a perma bulk than it is to stay discipline and lift.

Maybe they are there because they have a gut and are trying to lose it....?

Lmao. May as well ask why fat people are at the gym.

Noticed this yesterday, and I noticed one particular bloatlord kept looking at everyone around the place lmao

I think they just like to look big/strong, probably insecure about themselves and don't have the self control to be lean

This for real... only about 1/2 of the regular lifters at my gym have a gut. Of that 1/2, at least a few are powerlifters who DGAF about body fat and the rest lift with terrible form and no kinetic chain connection and never do cardio.

Then you have the guys who do a TON of cardio and look like they're made of beef jerky... or do a ton of cardio and don't lift and still have a gut.

Conclusion: diet, cardio, and lifting are all important for leanness if you're natty.

Yes

Yes I am
"One day I won't be able to lift any more. Not I won't want to lift. I mean physically unable. That day could be decades from now or it could be tomorrow. All I know is that's the day I'll wish I could lift more than ever. The day I'd give anything for one more workout, one more set, or one more cardio session. So go hard and enjoy every workout, every set, every rep. Because one day you will wake up and you will never get it back."

Most people that go to the gym don't have the unattainable model-tier 6'3' 250lbs shredded Chad slayer goals that most of the *******s here have. They are generally more content with their lives too.

Hey, how exactly is a rainbow made?
How exactly does the sun set?How exactly does the posi-trac rear end on a Plymouth work? It just does. -It just does.

Real answer is, those dudes are the type to do bro splits with a heavy focus on arms and probably don’t diet and drink too much. Therefore , chunky stomach and big arms. I don’t really care, just makes a lean aesthetic guy stand out that much morE. Less competition.

Same reason that most people in the hospital are sick or need medical attention. They're there for a change.

I bet you didn't think of that, did you?
