Why do men think that having semi muscular arms gives them permission

>>37921185
Its due to society wearing shirts all the time. Mainly t-shirts. You only need to appear big and strong. So as long as you have big shoulders and big bi's and tri's and slight size to your chest, you're pretty much golden. Abs are generally for your own personal reasons or homosexuality. Thats basically it.

Women want to feel secure protection, and strength.
Men want aesthetics that are symmetrical and proportionate.

It's easier to be a fat piece of shit and let some of the extra nutrients be partitioned into muscle.

>>37921185
>powerlifters

Laughing at all the fatasses in this thread "OMG I CUD KICK UR ASS OVER THE INTERNET." Seriously, you guys act like being able to kick someone's ass has any bearing whatsoever in this argument.

OP's point wasn't that fatty couldn't beat somebody up, it was that lifting weights doesn't justify being a fat piece of shit. If you overeat all the time and lift, you're obviously going to build muscle. It doesn't mean you aren't profoundly unhealthy or look like garbage.

I'd rather be in ottermode than one of these hamplanets, because at least I won't be dying of heart failure in my late 40s.

To answer OP's question, the reason this is such a common physique is because it's one of the easiest to get - you still have to lift, but you basically just overeat. It requires little to no discipline to look like that. It's not good for you because you wind up wanting to eat even more because you're lifting.

I also agree it's stupid and, for all the comments about how these fat people supposedly can kick everybody's asses, I'm assuming a lot of them haven't been in a real fight. Fighting uses strength but also relies on cardio, which would make these fat "strong' people pretty useless if the fight went on over three minutes.

>>37921940
Funny thing is, top powerlifters do more cardio than you, but just have to eat more to compensate.

>>37921991

Being overweight still isn't good for you.

I don't understand the preoccupation with lifting weights. Lifting weights is enjoyable, but the overall goal isn't weight lifting for it's own sake. If you've reached a point where you're getting fat so that you can lift more weight, you need to reevaluate your life.

>>37921897
>justify
Nothing has to be justified, it just is. They lift to be as strong as possible. If they look fat, so be it. Why are you upset?

>>37922085

You're right - nobody has to justify anything they do. It doesn't change the fact that it's stupid and unhealthy.

Calling me "upset" is a bit of a stretch, but it's certainly laughable when people who are clearly 40+ lbs overweight try to act like they're more fit than even some DYEL just because they lift a lot.

Say what you want, but It's always going to be unhealthy to be overweight.

Just a note, fit is typically not the place for fat acceptance.

Seriously, you're acting like the discussion is about what color is the best. Sorry, but it's objectively scientifically 100% not healthy to be overweight, and your feelings on the subject don't change that.

Let her do it. She'll end up dying early. and?

Strength Athletes know that being above a certain bmi isn't the healthiest, but it's necessary to achieve their goals. I don't understand how you can navigate 4chan, but still can't understand this concept.

>>37921940
I'm not overweight though. I'm 198lb at 6'. That's perfectly healthy.

>>37921623
Women dont care as much. If you can provide them either protection or support or a mixture they really dont care all too much. Men like aesthetics, thats why muscular men get other muscular men. Men tend to also look for aesthetic female's as well. Also do you not understand the rule of thirds? There is a ratio that is proportionate and very aesthetically pleasing.

ITT: health at ever size advocates get triggered by someone stating the fact that morbid obeisty isn't healthy

>>37922215

> I don't understand how you can navigate 4chan, but still can't understand this concept.

Well thank you for conceding my point - which is that you don't understand.

The reality is that the person in the video is simply becoming as fat as possible. That's her goal. You what you are failing to understand is that her freedom to pursue this goal isn't the same as freedom from criticism. It's demonstrably not healthy her to fulfill this goal, and I refuse to join my culture's worship of political correctness and apologize for the reality that I (and many others) point out how unhealthy this is.

The same goes for people who are actively doing damage to their body for the sake of powerlifting. It's not healthy for your body to be overweight, it's going to result in hypertension and cardiovascular problems. To think that I on an open forum don't have a right to point out how unhealthy this is (or even laugh) at people who do this much damage to their body for the sake of some arbitrary goal is childish on your part.

Freaking out, swearing at me, stomping your feet and saying how much you "hate people like me" doesn't change the fact that it's unhealthy and, in my opinion, stupid.

3-plate isn't really that impressive. You'd place just around dead last in a competition.

>>37922311

It's cute watching you trying to strawman the point, but there's a big difference from "holding your breath underwater" and actively carrying 40+ pounds on your body because you want to reach an arbitrary weight lifting goal. Namely, holding your breath underwater doesn't require a total life commitment that actively changes your body into something very unhealthy. Also, the act of holding your breath is not inherently unhealthy.

Once again (because by your own admission you don't understand this), being overweight is not healthy. Heart disease is the number one killer in the US. Stop trying to justify the fact that you're fat. Saying that you're fat for a reason doesn't make you less fat.

You seem to think that I don't understand that it's your goal, but I don't care that it's your goal, it's still fucking stupid and I reserve the right to inform you that you're doing damage to your body.

>>37922327

>>37922438

Oh my god man, you are so fucking butthurt.

You're on an open forum. People are going to express their beliefs. If you don't like it, buy a fucking helmet. Clearly you're a very weak and pathetic person, which doesn't surprise me if you're willing to overcompensate for it to such a degree that you'll risk dying in your 40s from heart disease so that you can lift big weights. In case you haven't noticed, that's what we're here discussing in this thread. In fact, the title of the thread is "Why do men think that having semi muscular arms gives them permission to be fat pieces of shit?"

So you can continue trying to justify being a fat piece of shit, and those of us who have fit bodies with good cardio and who eat clean will continue to discuss the merits of not being a fat piece of shit. So far, the conversation has gone like this:

>Me: It's unhealthy to be fat

>You: yeah but I can lift a lot.

>Me: That's fine, but it's kind of an arbitrary thing to be able to lift a lot of weight if you're going to have to suffer from all the health problems of being overweight in the process.

> You: Well I want to lift a lot of weight.

> Me: Okay, you're still going to get heart disease, hypertension, and probably die in your 40s.

> You: Well fuck you, I hate people like you, I want to lift a lot of weight and it hurts my feelings that you're bringing up that it's unhealthy.

> Me: That's what we're discussing in the thread. It's not healthy to be fat. Whether or not you lift a lot of weight is irrelevant.

> You: Well what if I want to hold my breathe underwater for a really long time? You don't have the right to tell me that's unhealthy!

> Me: That would still be kind of stupid, but is fundamentally different from putting on upwards of 55+lbs so you can lift a lot of weight - which is unhealthy.

> You: Everyone who doesn't agree with me is dumb.

Take your fatlogic somewhere else.

>>37922543
>> Me: Okay, you're still going to get heart disease, hypertension, and probably die in your 40s.
After this, we say
>Ok we're willing to risk this.

What more is there too say

>>37922480

No, you weren't "just asking," you're using your crappy fatlogic to try and prove a point - which you're failing miserably at.

Listen, if you want to get fat and die in your 40s so that you can lift big weights, that's fine. There's nothing I can do about it. Just like the fat girl in the video who is putting on hundreds of pounds of fat for no real reason. If that's the life you want to live, whatever.

It's still fucking stupid to chip 30+ years off your life for something as arbitrary as lifting a lot of weight or looking a certain way.

>>37922578
>It's still fucking stupid to chip 30+ years off your life for something as arbitrary as lifting a lot of weight or looking a certain way.
Ok cool, I don't think it's stupid considering the irrelevancy of life in general, but not arguing with a shortened life span.

Next?

>>37922571

Once again, you're misquoting my point. It's not a risk, it's A PROMISE. If you are overweight, you will suffer from these problems. You will get hypertension and heart complications.
> What more is there too say

The final thing to say is that it's a stupid trade.

Now, you might not be convinced that chipping 30+ years off your life so that you can lift a lot of weight is a "stupid trade" and that's your prerogative, but it doesn't mean that the rest of us are so blinded that we can't see it's stupid.


What do you think of someone who starts shooting up herion in their late teens? It's just their life and it's not stupid to become a fucking a junkie?

It's the same question.

That doesn't make any sense. What do you mean when you say the "irrelevancy of life in general" ? Talking about shorting your lifespan is fucking absolutely relevant to deciding what is or is not a stupid life decision

Interesting how you dodged my question whenever it illustrates how patently stupid your reasoning is - hence proving my original point.

>>37922826

And now you're devolving into name calling? Nice move, Triggly-puff, but I think it's pretty obvious to everyone here that you just want to justify being fat.

That's fine, but samefagging and spreading your butthurt all over /fit/ isn't going to change the fact that some of us are way healthier than you - and no, it doesn't mean we're all scrawny and thin.

Because some men only care about strength gains and confidence and give no fuck for visual gains.

>>37922061
Being overweight is not "unhealthy" being obese is unhealthy. Its in our dna to build fat. Its also in our nature to be as large as possible. If you have more fat than muscle in weight then you are unhealthy. This is due to your body having to work excessively to keep the structure healthy which causes the body to form more fat in order to and some structural integrity. If you have more muscle vs fat by weight you are strong enough to withstand the pressures due to your musculature can take the koad off your structure/frame.

>>37922996
Don't bother, he abandoned thread, at the fear of appearing like a soundboard.

>>37922996
>Its also in our nature to be as large as possible

you are so wrong it's not even funny
seriously, try to tell that to a doctor

as our mass grows, our organs stay largely the same, which means they have to work harder to take care of everything. this is especially true of the heart
this is fine to some extent, our bodies are indeed made to deal with this
but once you exceed the limit of what a cavemen in nature would have been able to achieve, the extra strain starts to become a problem
this is true even if you have low bodyfat, excessive amounts of musclemass are not healthy

excess fat tissue brings with it a host of other problems that have nothing to do with "being strong enough to withstand the pressure". increased load on the heart, increased risk of congested arteries, problems with hormonal and cholesterol metabolism, more waste products for the body to process

the only reason muscular builtfats are healthier than fatso's at the same weight, is that they have less fat tissue because most of the weight is muscle

>>37923446

I will only say this once. It is not okay to be fat. Ever.

>>37923482
I'm not fat, I'm actually medically underweight via bmi. I'm just not a retard like you. Only way you people can argue is ad hominem

>>37922617
You are dramatically overestimating the consequences of being a few pounds overweight. Not saying you are wrong but not every powerlifter or athlete dies of a heart attack or hypertension in their 40's. Not even a large amount when compared to people of healthy weight.

Does it increase your risk? Of course.

Is that risk negligible in the majority cases? Yes.

Would people take this risk to achieve their goals personal or otherwise? Obviously.

Its fine to point out that it isn't the most healthy thing to do, but at the same time realise what you are advocating for is trivial at best.

Once again I'm talking about athletic fatties who compete and incorporate a lot of exersize and muscle building in their daily lives, not just some fat Tyler.

>>37923109
Yes, this is why being smaller is better you can put more weight on the smaller lighter frame with less effort on our organs. But regardless, if you are natty and put on your max amount of natty muscle at 5% bf you can increase that strength by adding fat/weight to the the body to be able to utilize in whatever task you need. Also being any taller than 6'2" or 6'4" is harsh on your organs, 5'9" seems to be optimal size. But being the taller bigger frame is worse, due to the weight it has without muscles or fat. When you are larger the heart has to work harder in order to push blood through the whole body.

You can't naturally put more muscle than your body can naturally have. This is why we were given the ability to build this fat so readily. If we ate big meals, we can then go take down larger game by ourselves using our weight. We can work and build more and use heavier objects. We can survive on less while out on our long walks across the lands when we were nomadic people.

I completely agree if you are not naturally putting excess muscle on your body that your body can't naturally withstand then yes over time it can have issues on your liver and kidneys. But the body adapts pretty well. This is why when you get off cycle you basically shit and piss out the excess muscle your body cannot maintain naturally. This is a response of the body understanding its in potential danger down the road lets get rid of this excess muscle. And poof.

Holy shit there are a lot of triggered fatties in here.

Nigga, do a legitimate body fat evaluation before you boast about being "overweight/obese with muscle". You are -not- competing in strongman/powerlifting; you don't do this shit for a living or anywhere near an elite level.

Like maybe 2% of /fit/ is dudes that actually played sports and had some serious discipline at some point. The vast majority here got into lifting because it's actually one of the easier habits/hobbies to get into and see appreciable gains from. You do relatively slow movements for about 1-2 minutes, rest 1 minute, and then do that again for 90 minutes. You didn't drastically turn your life around just by lifting, you made one small change for the better.

>but muh ab outline!

You have a strong core, your abs protude and you know how to flex. I could vary between a visible 4-6 pack outline from all the deadlifts/cleans/core work I do. Did a bodyfat test, was shocked/in denial, but it was the truth. Had to lose 25 more lbs than I was expecting just to get to 10% bf. The bigger your muscles the more they show through fat tissue, which means you can gain more fat tissue without fully noticing.

>but different goals! different bodies!

Go into a FPH thread and see how much your 'goals' line up with a whale's excuses. Building muscle is one of the most effective ways to shave fat next to HIIT, and yet you are still at 20%+ BF. Like I said, get that shit checked if you don't believe me.

Looking big in a shirt by keeping excess fat on is just as vain as being skinny and having abs. Increase your work ethic and hit the upper-middle ground. I guarantee you will notice positive changes in your health that you never noticed were problem spots, because they snuck up on you while you incrementally caked on fat.

Yes, and how many /fit/ posters talk about 'perma-bulking'? These athletes actually cut and make weight on a regular and consistent basis.

>>37923515
>heartattack
>being heavy

Are you high? Do you look for a correlation between these "heartattacks" with smoking or gum disease? heart attacks are more likely from, smoking cigarettes, high sodium, bad oral hygiene, lack of exercise (not only cardio), drinking alcohol, pharmaceutical pill addiction or other drugs. All of these things can cause heart disease. Also most of these things fat people tend to do/use.

Do you still believe high fat (saturated, trans) foods causes high cholesterol?

>>37923662
>/fit/ posters talk about 'perma-bulking'?
most of then arent serious, as shown by /cbt/, you fucking idiot.

>>37923645
>The vast majority here got into lifting because it's actually one of the easier habits/hobbies to get into and see appreciable gains from.

You coulda just stopped there. I don't think most of /fit/ realizes; lifting hard 3-5 times a week is NOT DIFFICULT. You can be a lazy undisciplined cuck and still lift with decent consistency.

You're not some ubermensch that has ascended the regulars on this kenyan spelunking message-board. Take the goddam criticism instead of making excuses and you might actually get close to that goal instead of putting it off for another year.

>>37923645
Honestly more high level athletes browse /fit/ than you know. Me and most of my squad lurked and I knew people from other sports who browsed.

Played division 1 football for a big university btw.

>>37921185
lol all that guy in OP has to do is lose 15 lbs. he's not that fat

and he'll still end up bigger, leaner and stronger than you anyways

>>37923740
Omg, you probably still think the sky is blue due to the reflection of the ocean. Don't you? The study that we base that off of is from a guy that went and blood tested some inuit tribes that ate mostly blubber and other high fat foods. He assumed the raise was because of thier diet, but didn't account for the high sodium in their dried foods and the fact they all smoked regularly and had rampamt gum disease. Its been proven that your diet will only contribute up to 7% of your intake of cholesterol into the blood which in the amounts we actually are eating is negligible since we'd burn it off in a heartbeat (almost literally). So its silly to assume that old information is infallible.

>>37923885
Confirmed for not knowing shit about bf%.

Bigger muscles protrude through more fat tissue, it's a simple concept. A more muscular dude will look leaner with the same bodyfat, it's deceptive.

>>37921185
Ok op, i get it.
You hate the fact that these people seem to think theyre strong just cause they have a little size.
But I guarantee you op.
I guarantee, that if you were to do some jiujitsu and some stand up and train hard,
I promise you you could beat the shit out of any 240+ guy, and they would not be able to do shit because guess what? Mass takes more energy to move, simple physics, and so there comes a point where the mass just becomes counter productive and debilitating, it becomes a handicap, they become weaker, and so op, you can easily destroy them if you got off your ass and trained a little and would never need to shitpost again in order to channel your angst.

>>37923963

> The study that we base that off of is from a guy that

Why are you making up a story? There's hundreds if not thousands of studies we base this on, none of which have to do with eskimos, because it's an easily repeatable experiment that has been investigated thoroughly

>>37924027
I read so much of that. It still didn't account for the fact most high fat foods also come with high sodium levels. Also still no control for smokers and non smokers or sedentary vs active.

>>37924253
Kek

>>37924313

You must not have read any of it, because yes it did. It's a meta-analysis compiling data from about 400 metabolic ward studies, where people are put in a lab and have their diets tightly controlled to observe the effects of individual nutrients, using simple components like butter fat and oil. It is a medical fact that saturated and trans fats increase LDL cholesterol. There is little or no support for the idea that sodium or smoking have an effect on cholesterol concentrations, although they can affect heart health in other ways.

>>37924313
lmao

It even states there is further study needed. Also 0.8 mmol/l is a very small drop considering they cut 60% of the saturated fats out and replaced with monounsaturated fats.


Key messages

The quantitative importance of diet to blood cholesterol remains uncertain because non-experimental dietary studies in community subjects are unreliable and experimental (“metabolic ward”) studies have been too small to be separately reliable
We conducted a meta-analysis of 395 published, metabolic ward experiments of the effects of various dietary lipids on blood cholesterol
Isocaloric increases in saturated fat intake were associated with increases in total and low density lipoprotein cholesterol and smaller increases in high density lipoprotein cholesterol; increased polyunsaturated fat intake decreased total and low density lipoprotein cholesterol and increased high density lipoprotein cholesterol; monounsaturated fat had no significant effect on total and low density lipoprotein cholesterol but increased high density lipoprotein cholesterol
In the average British diet replacement of 60% of the saturated fat by other dietary fats and avoidance of 60% of dietary cholesterol would reduce blood cholesterol by about 0.8 mmol/l (that is, by 10-15%), with four fifths of this reduction being in low density lipoprotein cholesterol
The effect on vascular disease of a prolonged difference of 0.8 mmol/l in blood cholesterol concentration depends on the relative importance at different ages of the benefits of reducing low density lipoprotein cholesterol and the hazards of reducing high density lipoprotein cholesterol, which require further study

You're tripping bro. This new age of androgyny is fairly recent. For like the last 4500 years the heavier frame was definently greater.

>>37921185
A lot of people need to permabulk to maintain progressing lifts with ease. If you goal is to get a lot stronger and you're not an athlete who needs to maintain a certain weight then it doesn't really make sense not to if you're young and weight lifting is your primary focus exercise wise.

Powerwalking on the treadmill is hardly beneficial to your heart. Ran 4 miles in 40 minutes. Highly doubt these dudes could do that. This was a casual jog btw.

Good lucking staying in that weight class longterm, mind. U-231 is a shocker of a class to have to compete in if you're tall. Too many midgets built like bowling balls.

nice quints buddy

>>37930493
True. I've only just turned 21and play other sports so I want to keep my bodyweight down while I'm young and I'm good at the more athletic events so it's not the end of the world.
I hit a 660lb yoke walk for 20m about a month ago with a really shit rickety yoke and a tiny bodybuilding belt, so not too bad. Nearly killed me though

When did /fit/ become this fucking pathetic and vain

>>37924922
fuck i wanna chow down on this

lmao there is 2 fat cunts in my gym who i sometimes talk to. they are sometimes talking about how small my arms are. tfw im very lean and alot of girls and friends compliment me on gains, especially arm gains

the fat cunts got pure fat arms, can barely see they lift

>>37921185
OP is a skelly " i only have my abs going for me" dude

Guys with big bellies and big arms are fucking hot. Just saying.

The answer is quite simple actually OP.
The guy in your pic right? He's probably a bouncer, or a police guy, or something such.

Do you really think that a scrawny little bitch like yourself would ever physically overpower him, no matter how much muscle you have OP?
Nope. Because he's got not only muscle, but tons of weight too.
He's built his body for a specific purpose to serve as a specific tool.

You build your body with the aesthetic purpose.
He builds his body with the purpose of being able to break aesthetic faggots like you into half, because that's what he's paid to do, and that's what gets him food on the platter for himself and his family.

Not saying that it's bad that you train for aesthetics only OP.
But such bulky men also have purpose with their body.
