One gaze at Bears and you get pacified.

Balls.  The only reason he didn't punch you in the brains is that he's carrying anti-bear spray..

Wait, are you talking about this forum or your gym?

I am talking about the majority (though certainly not all) of powerlifters.

You're fine.  I hope I've been fine.

My brother is a tard.

All's good then. :)

As soon as someone says "do you even lift bro" unironically, you know with 100% certainty you can ignore anything they have to say.

No, that's my arm muscles.  From all the heavy lifting.

In seriousness, I think I could end up being all powerlifting all the time, if I hadn't kept myself in check. I tend to read and think and watch a lot of it, and i talk about it given the chance, but, luckily I do have other interests as well.

I've considered getting into lifting but it's always so embarrassing to be struggling to lift the bar with no weights on it.  I wish they'd add Placebo weights, big ass hollow things that weigh almost nothing but look like big heavy weights, just for the wusses amongst us.
There's good news tonight.  And bad news.  First, the bad news: there is no good news.  Now, the good news: you don't have to listen to the bad news.

That's sort of like saying you considered going to grad school, but you won't because you don't have a doctorate.   :lulz:

This is true. I've been doing this for almost a year, and I'm barely outlifting the fourteen year olds. Two of them are better deadlifters than me, one is only a couple of ponds away from being better in the bench.  :lulz:

Yeah well, since I literally mean I need a spotter to bench the bar by itself, I'd say it's more like I considered going to grad school, but don't because it's embarrassing to ask for help multiplying whole numbers... in Calculus class.

In any case, I posted this on the powerlifting page that Waffle and I are on, and now only Waffle will talk to me anymore.
