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.
