How much of gains and general fitness are hard work, and how much is just superior genetics? Seems like if your genes are bad, then the amount of work it would take to get hard-body simply isn't worth it. What's the work/reward cutoff, meaning, where does the required regiment simply becomes unsustainable?

Working out and eating right give you the best possible outcome from whatever genetics you were given.
Control the variables you can fucking control brah.

I am genuinely proud of this answer and whoever said it
>>35168576
the ability to work hard is a result of genetics

I agree. But I mean if you want a sculpted body, when does the time requirement become too much. When does the time requirement become so excessive that you just have to call it quits.

If you are working out 3 hours per day or more, that's excessive. Fitness is supposed to make your life better, not BE your life.

>Introduced to new hobies thanks to friends that I have from fitness
The only think fitness didn't give me was my job and education. I'm glad fitness is my life.

I don't get Henry Rollins. In his standup routine he said white racists are the reason life isn't 100% fun. Blamed them for everything bad. Yet his childhood sucked because he grew up in DC getting his ass pounded by black kids.

He probably knows that not all black people are the same just like not all white people are the same.

Why the hell would you listen to a musician when it comes to philosophy? A fuckind MUSICIAN.
he probably just likes taking black dick. s'all.

I'm natty and I look pretty good. I have about a 90% perfect diet and train five days a week for around 90 minutes a day plus cardio. It takes a fair amount of time and dedication, and I probably have poor genetics because while I look good I don't look excellent, so take that as you will. U don't know if I could realistically keep up any more effort than I am currently without cutting some other things out of my life that are important to me.

you thing so?

That's the thing, your regiment has to be manageable. If you take it too far, you simply can't maintain it and your whole routine ends up crashing.
