Actualy it reminds me how i started
my very good friend, when i just met him, told me hes going to the GYM regualry.. i asked him if hes serious cause i didnt realy notice, well i got my answer after i was lifted 6 feet in the air :/

**Big Steve** · 05-29-2003 08:17 PM

Thats ****ing crazy....definately thinking about that before i lift

**wolfpack** · 05-31-2003 11:33 PM

that is so awesome, it makes me proud to be someone striving to not be Bob.

**Jin_Kazama** · 06-02-2003 09:52 PM

Good Stuff! and so true.

**VitalRemains** · 06-05-2003 02:51 PM

Good article. I remember having alot tell me shat like that when I was 12 and obsessed with squat lifts, bench presses(the only 2 exersizes I knew how to do), and martial arts. Lard asses going "why do you wanna look like those guys in the magazines? They lift weights all day and pump themselves full of steroids to look like that. You can't look like that." Pffft, maybe not but so? It's the thrill of trying, and seeing how good you can get. I been lazy about it the last several years and that article was the kick in the ass I needed! Thanks!

**Scott S** · 06-05-2003 03:30 PM

Yup... let me concur. It's good to come back here from time to time to make sure I'm inspired enough. Whenever I lift, I think of how easily I could become Bob.

*shudders.

Thanks for bumping this Mister Pietro.

Great article. It's right on the money. Half the fun of doing what we do is seeing the looks on all the faces of those who wish they could do it, or just admire that we do.

I don't like this us and them thing, down that way lies the f'kin master race and has some "Mine Kampf" like tendencies.

careful with creating devisions in society, and feeling superior

AMEN!

Im an athelete, not a body builder and the number one irritating comment I hear is "You are so lucky to be so slim!".

I tell my friends that the hardest excercise I do every day is the one where I knock the stuffing out of the big fat, lazy, chocolate eating, tv watching, asswipe that lives deep inside of me.

I can run up 200 flights of stairs and still smile because I decided that was the person I wanted to be. Luck had nothing to do with it.

Fat people are fat because thats who they decided to be.

not quite true, although a great majority is like that, there are some that has a genetic disadvantage when it comes to shedding fat.

I took a friend along to our gym one time and he actually thought you HAD to wear this type of clothing when working out!!! That's what scared him about joining a gym in the first place!

He eventually joined the gym...

**GrifteR** · 06-28-2003 11:04 PM

Excellent read. THx hulk.

**loverboy084** · 07-14-2003 08:21 PM

oh my God!! I still havent come out of the trance this article had on me. Way too much inspirational for newbies like me. Man, I am definitely gonna continue with my routine. I just dont understand one thing. Why u wanted him to see ur ass?? I mean, you could have shown him ur huge biceps, monstreous chest but why ass. Maybe ur ass doesnt have fat in it like mine does(just a little ok) and it is a perfect example of glutes.

**AdamGberg** · 07-16-2003 06:34 PM

one year into working out and i still am not happy, this kind of article gives me the motivation to go on...

great post, but lifting can fit into christmas day, but if anybody goes and hits the weights instead of taking your kid to chuckey-cheese to see the mouse and eat pizza, then, then...you suck!!

lift on everyone...

Why isn't this thread sticky anymore?

Because its linked in here now.

**Reinvented** · 10-06-2003 01:34 PM

great article, just got around to reading it.

people not in this mind frame will never understand the dedication it takes.

that said, you can apply this rule to many different fields, brilliantly written and very inspiring

**Giddo** · 10-07-2003 06:03 AM

Great post the 99% seem to work with me and think that i'm the freak for being so dedicated. Drinking water whilst they have their coffee break, eating eggs whilst they scoff a Mars bar or a packet of crisps God i feel redeemed.LOL

**TitaN8504** · 02-19-2004 11:59 AM

Great post man. truly great. Where the hell are my keys, im going to gym.

1% till the day i die.

**Allyrulez** · 02-19-2004 02:53 PM

People like "Bob" do USEFUL things like help advance this species.. Those fat dorks do **** like invent cool **** and build Spaceshuttles... And what does this cocky guy from a bodybuilding magazine do??? Sits and works out for basically no real reason (it isnt 10000BC anymore) at all... Then writes up on the INTERNET (fat dorks) about how fat dorks suck
