Just like that excuse.

No, because you can't get 20" biceps without roids as fuck, he was obviously bullshitting.
Also just keep lifting.
Also also trt.
>not lifting to enter Andreas cahling mode
>>36824329
and HGH. that shit takes years off you in small doses (zane, sly stallone)
or you could take 6000000 scoops and enter pianoman mode
>>36823971
can't tell you how many times I've heard this, even from people my age claiming back a few years ago
Im roided out and have a physique most people would kill for lmfao
>What your bench press?
>what supplements do you take?
kek
I don't actually hear this that much. What's way more common over here is
>"when I was in the army..."
>"my dad was a lumberjack and he..."
>"gym strength isn't real strength..."
Here being Finland. Old people dislike strong young people because they aren't "tough". It probably has something to do with mandatory military service and school sports focusing on track and field. Nobody who actually lifted bothers to be an ass, they're very supportive instead.
>that protein powder will just make you fat! it's filled with sugar and is unnatural.
>i mean if you wanna lift sure go ahead, but at least do it naturally without those powders, at least then i'd respect you

>Nobody who actually lifted bothers to be an ass, they're very supportive instead.
gym culture is a very supportive group of people, only people i know who discourage and talk down to people are the total holocaust mode dyels doing brosplits with no weight dumbells, crossfitters to noncrossfitters, vegans and fake natties who shit talk about everybody. everybody else is always nice.
>>36824154
well in our case there will be photographic evidence
>>36824543
This. MMA and the gym are the only places where I see people genuinely want to help total strangers get better.
>dad gets me into lifting
>is super skinnyfat
>says he never ohped and highest squat was 225x10
>compliments me on my DYEL chest
feelsgood that he doesn't lie or always make himself look better
>>36823971
well,,,thats the problem with weightlifting you have to keep it up otherwise all the muscle will turn into fat and youll be worse off then before.
its a thing you do for life f a m .
>>36825525
That's such bullshit anon.
Eating like a fatass after stopping exercise is what makes old guys fat.
>>36824543
desu most subcultures are supportive of people in the in group when needed, regardless of how ruthless they can be at most times. See 4chan, EVE, organized crime, military, punks, etc.
>>36823971
I imagine you had to be quite the athlete to go round the world carrying all that shit santy klaus.
