Getting alot of negativity from being "swole"

ad

Seems majority opinion of buff people is to assume they use steroids, meat head, etc. Just seems horrible :(
A strong and powerful physique is no longer appreciated these days.

I have not ever gotten any negative comments unless someone was hating. I hear a good comment most everyday the last month but I have also heard a lot of steroid ? comments lately but what do I really care I just take a lot of protein.

Yeah I love those it just makes me want to get bigger to make them even more insecure

I get all compliments even from my buddies who may start out busting my balls a little. I think it is all how we carry ourselves, if you carry yourself like a douche people will treat you as such, if you project strength and sensibility the same applies..

I totally disagree with you. I'm pretty "swole" or whatever you want to call it. I don't get any negativity at the gym or anything like that. Mostly in public. If I'm walking in the grocery store with my kid in the shopping cart or whatever, I get dudes staring me down or they give you challenging looks. I assume out of jealousy. They are usually not in any kind of shape and accompanied by a female. I don't strut around. I wear loose shirts so I don't look like a show off. I learned after many years to walk around with my shoulders kinda shrugged and my head down so I'm less intimidating. I mean, I'm just a guy with his kid trying to buy diapers, why do you look like you want to fight me, lol. That's just one example of many regular instances. I definitely notice a certain hostility in public places like that, be it the store, the park playing with my kid, the gas station, whatever, so does my wife. Never at the gym though. Maybe because there people know me as a friendly, quiet and humble guy with a family. I don't know.

The other night we had dinner with my family.. Keep in mind these are people that I love but do not like to be around.. the gossip and blah blah.. Anyway, we get to the restaurant sit down and start talking.. well some moments pass I get up to go the restroom and my aunt says "WOW! You've really been working out.. I can tell.. I mean you are soo thick now... where before you were so skinny and boney.." I think that's the moment when she realized that maybe is was a compliment and maybe it wasn't... so she started back peddling telling me how she thought I looked great and I looked better with meat on my bones... Now, could I have taken that wrong.. yes I really could have said.. "what's do you mean thick?? Am I getting fat?" the list goes on but you get the point.. instead I said.. "I understand what you are saying and yes I have been hitting the gym a little more.. I like having some muscle on me... thank you for the compliment.. So it's all in how you take it.. and how you see yourself as well.

This is really good! I get a lot of looks but I find people staring at my scars more than anything and they are not pretty even though I have had extensive work done on them, if didn't have that work I would have made Frankenstein look handsome lol.

Mostly it is the guys I work with who notice a difference I can't say I am really around a lot of other people to know what they think. Also I think I am in good shape for my age but I don't see myself at all being like Bodybuilder or Viking where clearly there is a massive difference from the rest of society.

Yeah I think body language is a big key. You know that I am big with MMA and I have friends that honestly would be considered fat and out of shape by some here. But I will tell you they are some bad mofos and could run circles around guys with the biggest muscles. I have also seen skinny little guys out a major ass whooping on guys 70lbs heavier.

So when I see a person I honestly do not make a preconceived judgement about their toughness or how good of shape they are in. I appreciate the compliment my friend I may have some muscles that stick out but for real I would not say my outer shell is pretty to look at.

I believe you nailed on the body language and like you said when a guy flares out I always see that as a sign of insecurity.

It's Monster666 that got banned a while back. He can change his avi, and his name, but unfortunately can't change his shitty attitude and that will always reflect in his karma.

ANBRO's picture

I'm sure it beats the negativity someone gets for being a fat sack of shit.

Nothing to worry about here bro.

Honestly brother I would settle to see man who are strong in character, principle, provision, and most important no self justification when you are wrong. So men will make strong bodies just to hide what a weak ass insecure person they really are. I believe the optimal is strong mind, body and spirit if you believe that you posses all three but I think you get the point. One of the first things of that is learning to not give a shit what others think if they are not where you want to be. If they are where you want to be than you would be stupid not to care what they think if it will help you achieve your goals. Also I hear this a lot from people "I don't give a shit what other people think of me!" I always reply than why the hell did you have to say that? If you really are over what others think you don't even think about saying those words.

We all care how we come across to one degree or another...the only way to come to conquer it is to stop lying to yourself and get a sober view of where you are at. One more thing there are a lot of horrible things in this world but people not appreciating someone's strong and powerful physique is not one of them.That being said go over to my pictures and tell me how great I look, I do care what everyone things and I hate it when people fail to admire my wonderfulness lol:P

Darktide's picture

You know it pisses me off when people kiss and tell but the fact that it is average elates me!!!! HGH is paying off!!! LMAOOOOO!!!!

Pale's picture

I thought maybe I was losing my mind, but HGH does seem to be adding something... Just sayin..

Darktide's picture

Yes it is very tempting to shoot it directly into the place that you want to grow lmao:P

Pale's picture

Hahaha, not that tempting brother. Reminds me of my vasectomy, that was traumatic shit, I promised the boys I would never mess with them again, Smile

Darktide's picture

Brother the fact that you let someone willingly near your pocket rocket with a knife makes you more of a man then I can ever hope to be Smile !

Darktide's picture

Nope you no you can take any liberty Smile

They tell you not to drink the water over here I should have listened damn it. Honestly I really blame all the "No Homo" talk since coming here. Its like when you your and kid and they "don't do that, don't do that" well finally you snap and you do it. so it is "No Homo" this "No Homo" that, I might be folding under the pressure!

Darktide's picture

Hahaha....in the group home I grew up, in a Nun use to say to us I will never forget because this one kid always would be playing with his belly button, "Stop playing with that or your pee pump will fall off!" Lmao to this day I haven't washed or touched my belly button Lmaoooo!
