Why is the gym now full of 16-22 yr old dudes thinking muscles are the answer?

And same age girls in spandex working on their butts...

What kind of life did we inspire 10-15 years ago with starting this gym-bro culture?

Now my gyms around here are full of the same young pricks that came to this forum 15 years ago. Tons of upper middle class white boys. Only difference is now they have phones and think they are cool by being immersed in the "coolness" on online culture. Selfies, posing in the mirror, high five giving, bass pro shop wearing...fuuuuk. I miss the gym prior to 2013 or so.

Sometimes I wish the internet had never been created. It just makes people copycats and jump on bandwagons.

Lifting weights feels good and being fit is healthy.

Anything too many people get into becomes lame. The entire fitness culture is pretty lame at this point. Bunch of pricks running around wanting to be Zyzz.

Problem is not a single one of them have any idea how to diet so the end result isn't even a healthier, more fit population sadly.

so really what you have is the prick types have now started crowding the gyms and tattoo parlors as their hobbies while the population as a whole isn't really getting healthier.
