we DO NOT gatekeep with this post! we’re poking fun at modern bodybuilding which emphasizes appearance and size far above performance and even health.

100% full respect to this guy! the only thing to laugh at is the social landscape which got us here :)

      I am 46 and was in the ICU a couple months ago with super high blood pressure and a false alarm for a stroke. Up until last week, I hadn’t ran for proper exercise in 20 years:

      I can push myself to two miles, but it hurts. It only took a couple of months to work up to this point, so that was cool.

      But still, if he wants to show off that he is doing just a little better than a 46 year old with cardiovascular issues he can go right ahead. I ain’t going to yuck anyone else’s yum, but a comparison needed to be made.

      Edit: Fitbit doesn’t separate workout types that well without planning ahead and configuring a workout routine. “Lap 2” was a running mile, and the rest of the laps are walking.

      Does it really matter how good or bad at running he is? At least he’s doing more than a lot of people and he isn’t morbidly obese like half of them these days.

        I’m not pissing on their goals. I’m pissing on them trying to pose and pomp with mid numbers. Why do you fail to understand that?
