I'm close to 6' weigh 228lbs with abs but yet every time I look in the mirror I see small.When I'm out in public in a tank top or at the beach without a shirt I see people staring and whispering to each other.Friends, coworkers and complete strangers make comments on how big I am. I wonder how big I have to get until I'm satisfied with how I look. The only time I remotely feel big and muscular is when I have a nice pump going at the gym,
I'm aware of the muscle dysmorphia syndrome and I wonder how many other members on eroids may have it?

Thats part of what makes us successful as bodybuilders is never being satisfied

Yeah bro very true. Reminds me of pumping iron where Ferrigno was doing overhead shoulder press and said I'm not satisfied, I want more weight. I want to beat Arnold. Lol

I just wanna say I understand what your saying. No matter what anyone says you'll only see small. I believe that's what makes us strive to work harder. I see a built , buff , large man.

That's why I'm so much in love with you baby

Harley1969'sBride's picture

I love you right back baby.

You're never 47. I'm shocked, I thought you were quite a bit younger than me!

You definitely don't see what I see when I view your pics young lady!

As I stated with Ironblonde below my Wife saw your pictures and she was very impressed. You are in great shape especially for being 47. We are the same age you and I and look better than the avg people in their 20s. Smile

Really Bro? Insulting women now? This site is for many things such as product review,gaining knowledge,sharing personal experiences and encouraging others. Being negative is only going to get you negative responses.

vhman's picture

Sorry , i'm here to speak the truth not candy coat shit for you buddy.

Your idiotic version of the "truth". I know this will come as a shock, but the rest of the world doesn't live in your microscopic, cylindrical world.

5 10 at 248 at 28 id like to see your pics, right now im way off myself but I have plenty of pics of me at 220 with abs at 5'7. pretty shitty you shitting on people for their size if you have nothing to say then move on.

vhman's picture

Obviously you've missed everyone's point, which is not surprising. Idiots will do that. Best of luck.
