Dude sounds like a cuck who cares more about his social status and what his wife thinks of him then about making it.
Hes never gonna make it. He let fucking rippletits down of all people.

This article is stupid. If you want to top out in endurance sports you HAVE to get strong. I ran D1 XC and track and we lifted heavy three days a week (just like every other good program in the country). The swim team did too, even more than us. I knew some of the club cyclist guys and they lifted. My wife did Nordic skiing at the D1 level; guess what they did three days a week all year round?
This dichotomy is fucking stupid.

This was a shit article, basically it talks about how liberals are cardio bunnies and think people who lift have some sort of problem (yeah, liberals). Like the people who lift are trying to compensate. They forget to mention the fucking liberals are always running away from something.The author was then criticized by friends and wife for getting big. He then gave it all up to do some cardio.
The author was just a weak bitch, scoobert has plenty of muscle and runs marathons.

>urban liberals like myself

>not being married to a woman who loves you for who you are
not to mention this cuck is almost 40 lmao boomers are so sad
>>39245811
There are still tons of sports communities that think all they have to do is the sport itself. One of the leading authors on rock climbing thinks you can ignore strength training. Maybe he can, but unless your a triple jointed gumby muh technique will only get you so far and being able to lift your own body weight plus gear for a gorillion reps is handy.

Hooollyyyy shiiiitttt do human beings actually think this way?
>>39245551
Wet water
>>39246509
Yeah liberal girly men actually exist unfortunately
>>39246278
40 is like Gen-X, dude.
You're old. Accept it.
That story is made up as hell I cannot fathom a fucking fag like this guy ever lifting anything other than his wrinkly face
That's kind of pathetic. The guy clearly yearns to be big and loves lifting, but he lets social pressure and the opinions of others screw his motivation. Fuck that. Get as big as you want. Lift if you want to, stay small if you don't. That guy is clearly never gonna make it.
>>39245551
Left him a nice message in the comments. Go ahead and dox me if you want, worth it.
Of course he won't learn a thing
>>39246549
I'm 19
this has nothing to do with politics or anything really
op confirmed for homosexual faggot
The upper, and to some extent middle, class has always looked down on strenght due to its association with manual labour; especially if you get calloused hands from the bar you look too much like a worker to be "hot" to prissy bourgeoise cunts. Personally I take great pride in even somewhat approaching the physique of my grandpappy who shoveled coal 12 hours a day for a living. You know, the physice of a godamn man.
>>39245663
can't you just taste the sexual tension
he claims to have gained all this mass, putting his body through strenuous lifts that would result in some kind of personality change in being more resilient
yet he's still at the beck and call of his wife?
fiction
>>39246576
He probably fucked around at a sub 2 plate squat for months while getting fat, and his wife got pissed. He didn't lose "30 lbs of muscle in 3 months". I don't blame her. If my girlfriend randomly started getting fat after being together for years because she fell for a fitness meme I would be pissed too.
>>39245551
i read it. i see him as only partially male.
"what does muscle matter"?
how abstracted have we become from what we ARE - creatures? fucking organic animals made of bone and muscle?
people don't understand.
dont believe his lies. He was never big
>>39246685
lol stay poor cuck
>tfw perfect hands and /fit/ as fuck
>My wife does seem to like me a little better, and sometimes I think our friends even respect me more.
LOL what a pussy. Said he never enjoyed exercise more than when he was weightlifting, but abandons it because others judge him
>>39246648
yes.
>>39246983
What the fuck is wrong with his skin?
Syphilis or leprosy?
Which one of you commented on his post?
>>39245551
>>39246138
Stupid idiots, I read throgh this whole shit article and the only references to any politics was when he was listing examples of things that can't coexist.
Yet another politic b8 thread. Fuck off to your containment board, it's called POLITICS for a reason
>>39247243
so you can't read. or think. good job. next.

>>39245551
You know, its one of the special joys in the life that no matter how down I feel, I can always look at people like this and instantly feel better.
>>39245551
I'm annoyed I read this shit
>>39245551
A dude is actually going to fucking bow down to peer pressure and stop lifting??? What the fuck???
Zero self respect, balls, or personal identity. Pathetic and disgraceful.
>>39246138
Do you realize how autistic you sound?
>>39245551
this aint news, theyve always been pussies
>>39245551
Only shows how fucking snob and snooty these so called middle classes are.
Litteral cancer and I'm not a weightlifting die hard fan since I do fighting sports, but I've got the same remarks (you only box because you overcompensate) from pissy college students that were majoring in social science.
For people so hellbent on preaching that education makes free thinker they sure are stuck in their moulds of preconceived ideas.
>>39245811
This. I'm a road cyclist and lift 2 - 3 times a week depending on the time of year and current training schedule. There are plenty of cyclists who still don't lift at all and you can tell it from their riding and other problems. Pretty much everyone who I've heard complain about back pain or not being able to get into a deep aero position comfortably have never been to a gym and have absolutely no core.
>>39246163
Intramuscular corticosteroid injections. Just make sure you get a TUE before them so you don't get busted for doping :^)
>>39245663
Tfw no massive bald kickboxing gay lawyer to spot you
>>39245811
The author didn't talk about endurance athletes but about people who call themselves "marathon runners" while finishing among the last third and going home with a participation trophy.
You can't be "too big" just by being natty. However you can be "too fat".
This faggot probably didn't cut and decided to rather give up on something he enjoyed doing, like a pussy.
Sometimes the cuckery of mind and soul is heavier than the weights.

DO you realize how beta you sound? I bet you don't even have a gay gym bro, no homo.

Nasty enough to let him know what a fuckup he is, but not so nasty that he'll disregard the advice right?
