Ambrose2007: Sounds rather Arnoldesque. I assume you've read his biography, Ray? Philosophy doesn't get much deeper than that.


At 23 I weighed in at 121kgs with a 19 and a half inch arm, you’re damn right I sound Arnoldesque!

Now I’m 110kg because I just don’t have the time to train with all the study I have to do.

No, I haven’t read his biography - which one? There are loads of them? Do you mean an autobiography? Has he even written one?

When you’ve very big, and you’re very strong, and you’ve very clever, and you’re very young - you get cocky. And rightly so!professor

You have it all Ray don't you! You remind me a little of my son, he has all of those things too and appears cocky at times, but he also has a soft centre....just like you.

You will age like the rest of us though so don't get too cocky will you?

Youuuu cocky, Ray?

*nooo... say it isn't so...
rolling on the floor laughing

Oh, really now... where's the harm in a dose of pride for keeping one's form?
Maybe I'm just biased because if the exposure I have to the fitness/bodybuilding/martial arts world... but I see what it takes to maintain that standard & I give full credit to those who manage to do it.
(no harm that I'm a touch of a Lee Priest enthusiast either)
Do your thing Ray.

A Lee Priest enthusiast?

That little short smiley midget with a small chest and 23inch arms? Say it ain’t so?

Yeah, I agree. People who are fit and healthy ARE proud because it IS difficult, but it isn’t the TIME it takes (THAT we 'health enthusiasts' all know) It’s THE SELF-DISCIPLINE.

It take years to become MENTALLY strong enough to become physically strong/healthy/fit.

It practically doesn’t take any time at all to DO when you consider the hours in a day/week - it’s just takes the effort.

And people have always been very good at making an effort, haven’t they? Pfff!

Where I used to live there was this really craggy old granddad who used to walk down the street ripped up with muscle - we used to call him ‘Granddad Conan’.

The guy turned heads. Especially old ladies. Ha ha laugh

I thought it was so cool. I was like: That guy is the coolest old grandad I have ever seen in my life, period. They should make a movie about that guy.

People think health and fitness is harder than it is. One to one and a half hours a day five days a week, and good healthy eating . . .

What’s the big deal?confused

Konigsberg: Oh! guys you still can't get over this topic huh?
What are all those muscules worth without just ONE: perfect sized, working and trained properly , able to fit all holes.

Oh it might be a question for genetic science ...


That’s was naughty, Konigsberg! professor

Nice sofa by the way! wine

I think in conclusion it is best to maintain a decent level of physical fitness and it definitely helps with mental well-being.
I once tried to stop bodybuilding totally for my studies, and after a week or so of reading 18th century philosophy and writing essays I looked in the mirror and I looked like a mad man on crack to whom a comb had become a forgotten criterion of civilization. Ha ha ha rolling on the floor laughing

It all about Aristotelian balance! professor

Hey hey, easy now... I love the man's Chutzpah!
So he's not #1, not big & has no *ss...
He stood up against the system of body building competitions turning hard work & body strained efforts into job interviews in stead of prize awards.
Kudos to him!!
I mean these people already tax themselves for 3/4 of the yr just to compete, who wants to shred their body & health by doing it all year around...
but I digress...

Sorry, I don’t know much about him just seen his pictures.

You’re pretty hot, spicy. Ha ha.

That old granddad was cool - there isn’t even any other word for it. He was just cool. He used to walk home carrying shopping bags which pulled on all his muscles and made his veins stick out.

We were just kids, we were like: when we’re old we gonna BE that guy. Ha ha.

Ah! You overlook my cunning and intelligence , Konigsberg . . .

You see, I only continue to date the girls who don’t eat desert . . .

Which is more shallow, do you think? Jumping out of the bathroom window while they dig in or only dating girls who don’t eat dessert? How do you put it to them?

I think it’s a genuine moral dilemma I have created for myself.

Nice sofa by the way



I am definetely not .. i Got it! There is a wee flaw in your experiments .... them, girls who don't eat cheese cakes might order them ... just to check how you gonna to react ( they see you fit body) (I'm talking smart girls here).

Another option They might not eat them at all ... but will start later ( you never know with all those harmonal changes in pregnant women).

and so on ... so on ... you need to change a plan ... Think on something else.

and yet do not hurt yourself thinking on moral dillemas ... they have tendency to be solved by itself
(Eurica!) ...................



................ so relax and keep you hair well groomed grin devil

btw speaking of sofa i think I'll change it to Softail .... i like those lines as well. confused devil

lusciousmile: It's much easier for them to bash those who watch their weight and call them anorexics or just vain!Yeah maybe they should understand that some people actually love to work out like they work their mouths out on the poor chips.

PS.
Not to offend anyone specifically but only for those who hate to see others proud of being fit!!!!!To each their own, right? Ray can be as cocky as he wants to be, he's earned it!!!!

Anyone who feels belittled by others keeping a diet and showing pride in it should probably watch their esteem instead of him.
