You can just post one just because. I must be the only one on here who has missed a Paige photo.

typically they are the ones walking around the gym, with their flatbilled hats, bragging about they can deadlift 600lbs x 50 reps and everyone else is thinking "no one cares Jeff, pls go"


Don't forget the obligatory weight belt that they wear at all times.

Geez. Why so sensitive?

Why don't you want to show off how hot you are?

Allow me to play doubles advocate here for a moment. For all intensive purposes I think you are wrong. In an age where false morals are a diamond dozen, true virtues are a blessing in the skies. We often put our false morality on a petal stool like a bunch of pre-Madonnas, but you all seem to be taking something very valuable for granite. So I ask of you to mustard up all the strength you can because it is a doggy dog world out there. Although there is some merit to what you are saying it seems like you have a huge ship on your shoulder. In your argument you seem to throw everything in but the kids Nsync, and even though you are having a feel day with this I am here to bring you back into reality. I have a sick sense when it comes to these types of things. It is almost spooky, because I cannot turn a blonde eye to these glaring flaws in your rhetoric. I have zero taller ants when it comes to people spouting out hate in the name of moral righteousness. You just need to remember what comes around is all around, and when supply and command fails you will be the first to go.

Make my words, when you get down to brass stacks it doesn't take rocket appliances to get two birds stoned at once. It's clear who makes the pants in this relationship, and sometimes you just have to swallow your prize and accept the facts. You might have to come to this conclusion through denial and error but I swear on my mother's mating name that when you put the petal to the medal you will pass with flying carpets like it’s a peach of cake.

I don't think I've ever seen a real power lifter that didn't look fat

Figured it was a result of their diet so they could lift so much. Doubt some low body fat gym rat is gonna lift what a power lifter can, anyway so what's the big deal?

You're not alone, I haven't seen one either.

At least he isn't saying that everything I'm doing is wrong.

If you're talking about the person whom i think you're talking about, he's actually an amazing human being who i am extremely grateful to have as a close friend. if you had taken the five seconds to say "whats up" and converse with him instead of jumping to ignorant conclusions, maybe you would realize he's a awesome guy. and FWIW, that 4 finger ring was a gift. and he is far from a wook. yes, he has fedora but if you we're too spun out, you would have noticed that he doesn't have dreads and was most definitely rocking some fly arse Nike's. and we all know wooks don't wear shoes ;) so yeah, maybe if you stop judging people by their appearance and instead try engaging in a conversation with them, you just might meet a new friend :) my $0.02

They exist. It all depends on how you diet or train. I'm not a power lifter, but I have good powerlifting numbers (285 bench, 405 squat, 550 deadlift). I'm sure power lifters are better, but you get the idea. And I'm 5'10 185 pounds.

It all comes down to diet. If you commit to a strict diet and push yourself in workouts, you can still get extremely strong and stay lean

Damn son
But then again you say you aren't a power lifter though you can match their lifts. So I still think the majority are heavy set.
