Can you ever be too big?
ad
So my girl told me tonight that my muscles are getting to big. I seriously thought about breaking up with her (Not really). I didn’t know how else to respond so I said, “Thank you for the wonderful compliment.” Has or does anyone else experience this problem with their significant other? What are your thoughts?

Too big? Head slap, face palm. The solution is simple. Forget proper training, quality diet, and productive rest. Forget growth, health, and development. All you need is a more " body positive" approach where everyone gets a participation trophy & pat on the back. I mean, why even aspire to be great after all? Body positivity....is all you need.
It's subjective, of course. You must understand that though most everyone approves of folks being in good shape, that to many, if not most people, once one begins to appear to be obsessive concerning body appearance and it becomes clear that a great amount of time, energy, and resources are being spent on appearance, it gives the impression of superficiality and shallowness, as well as indicating stunted maturity. A significant other is liable to be judged as unserious and shallow by association as well.
To most folks, body builders do not look like tough guys, they look like a twelve year old boy's idea of a tough guy. A cartoon character. No actual badass would ever feel physically intimidated by, say, Arnold. Not in a million years.
LOL.. that is the best description i ever read of a body builder ...
Yes. IMO, modern bodybuilders are (amazingly) freakish and not very attractive, particularly if they have GH gut too. Bodybuilders pre the AAS era have a much more pleasing aesthetic. Much more practical too. I can't imagine not being able to scratch my ass, fit into clothes or my car.
There was no bodybuilding pre AAS. However, you are correct in the assertion that Hgh and more directly the Hgh,insulin,IGf cocktail usage has caused a tremendous decline in the sport. The Olympia stage last year was a complete and total joke with only perhaps 2 competitors even showing up contest ready (the winner not being one of them). To watch Roelly in the pump room in prejudging was as disappointing as it was downright laughable. Visible fat , huge distended gut, and smooth as silk. This is deemed by the judges the 5 best in the world!? What a travesty. A far cry from the Steve Reeves , Bill Pearl, Frank Zane days.
I’m more of a aesthetic guy. I think we all know that for the most part. I don’t want to be overly huge.
Maybe she just want people not to lay the link big = steroids people who doesnt train are easy sayers of look he is big hes using steroids but they don even have a clue what we do what we eat how we train im not skinny but also not that big but my wife says it 2 maybe a lil bit concernd of other predatorwomens :))
BIGGER IS BETTER
That is what it is. You hit the nail on the head...
Got the same problem here with my wife i live in a small town when i finishd work early i go pick up my son at skool time to time some people look at me like wtf did you eat a whole cow or somthing
but really im not that big i want to get a lot bigger but lean but we dont see that because we have a perspectif a goal what we want to be
RustyhookerIn the long run you gotta follow your goals. Wifey likes me bulky and not so much when i get lean. But if your other half doesnt support your goals....ive never had a chick stick around if they werent into it. Bye bye.
It’s weird but a lot of women like the dad bod.
RustyhookerEveryone has their flavor for sure!
Makes them feel less insecure about their bodies

Goes for anyone insulting someone who has put serious time and effort into their physique.
This sounds like a comment that is coming from someone who is fairly insecure in themselves, so is therefore trying to put doubt in your mind and make you feel the same. I dated someone who came out with things like this and she ended up becoming basically a bully in the relationship, who revelled in controlling & manipulating everything she could. Your partner should be giving you nothing but positive encouragement and support in everything you do even if its not something they enjoy themselves.
I think it’s more like other people questioning her about me and PED’s...
Your partner should be giving you nothing but positive encouragement and support in everything you do even if its not something they enjoy themselves. BOOM! this is it
It is a constant struggle between me and my girlfriend. The Amount of time I spend at the gym , My use of PED's even though I try to explain that I am very conservative in my usage she just does not want to hear it or understand it.
She loves my body and how much I take care of myself physically but at the same time it makes her very insecure. Its a wonder we are still together really , but she is the one so it is what it is.
As for being too big, nah bro no way .
I get bigger I need to be bigger I always look smaller than I am compliments help but I want super size bro I think if I got as big as I wanted I’d want to be bigger than that then... it’s a mental high for sure my wife says ah don’t like the muscles bu I catch her looking and I say “stop looking at my steroids if u don’t like it”
lol
Molinin302My wife hates muscles, in a big way. She likes skinny small guys, we met after my divorce, I was an alcoholic 6'2" skinny guy. After I got my head back together, she became concerned and voiced her displeasure with muscles. Then along came my run which included dianabol for the first time, it was not pretty. Long story short, when I'm on and popping, it's not discussed, I wear long sleeves often. I don't give her shit for her drinking, she lays off about what I do. We finally came to an agreement on this recently. The stepsons are another story lol! Just keep being you big guy
Fuck no get the fuck out of here with that shit.
In all seriousness it’s your body and your preference. Tbh I’ve been more muscular than my fiancé wanted since we met, and I’ve only gotten more jacked since then. Most woman don’t actually want a competitive bber, but if she’s a good woman she sticks with you no matter what. If she’s a shallow ho (not your lady, some hypothetical ho, respect bro) then you might run into issues but only in the off-season. When you shred down she’ll be ok with the size again.
Shes a good woman for sure and I completely understand what you’re saying big homie...
AnonPsh I wish..post up some pics you beefy bastard, let's see what your womans bitching about
Honestly I feel small lol
I feel the same way. That im smaller than i believe. But my girl doesnt care what i take as long as im safe and dont hurt myself. People always say im big as hell. But in my mind not big enough
Bodybuilding problems 101 lol
AnonComes with the territory. Just had the same convo with my wife, I said I thought I was stalled in my bulk and she called me crazy.
