Do the people you work with think you're a FREAK???

[Surgical]

Does this ever happen to you? People giving you shit because you eat so much, or carry around a big cooler and a gallon jug of water? Someone even asked me if I was a loner the other day because she never sees me out with people from work, and because I don't hang out at the bars and clubs like everyone else. And not to mention that I get up at 3:30AM to go to the gym and give my body everything I have BEFORE I put in a hard days work. Fuck that shit! And those are the same people who eat shit every day and treat their bodies like gabage. They know nothing about training, diet and what it takes or feels like to push your body to the limit.

My family doesn't understand my diet. Every time I go home to visit parents mom is always offering me cookies, cake, or some new dessert she just made. Okay mom, didn't I just say I was DIETING????!!!!


I guess my revenge towards those people is correcting them when they talk about those diet "myths", and laugh when they think they'll lose fat by eating a piece of fruit for each meal of the day.

Sorry bros, just had to let off some steam. But the thing about that chick asking me if I was a loaner, that really got to me. She's an aerobics instructor, and fucking HOT AS HELL!!!

 

[haxedout]

i hear ya.. people are ignorant.. very ignorant when it comes to bodybuilding.......

 

[alien amp pharm]

Happens all the time. I bet they think I'm a weirdo because I have the kitchen pantry at work filled with supplements. I am constantly consuming my protein shakes. I don't care what opinions they have, though, because I feel and look better than them.

 

[BigGuns2]

People think that I'm weird because I make about 50 bathroom visits every hour due to drinking 2 gallons of water a day!!

A couple of points:

Make sure your fuck the aerobics instructor - That should be easy since she's taken an interest.

The "soft-body" crowd, whether a fat whale or a pudgy little guy are stupid and jealous - Get used to it. Everybody is offended in my office that I'm the only manager with muscle/power and body so hard you could polish a diamond on my ass.

Recently.. Over the last 12 months, I've helped/encouraged my wife and she is down to 15% body fat and can squat 205.. Her mother, a diabetic whale on 30 drugs a day, getting 6 heart surgeries (splints in her arteries) - never exercised a day in her fat life is now trying to discourage my wife. She'll say, aren't you too thin - or it's unhealthy to get so much muscle as a women... On and on and on..

Now to stop rambling, GET USED TO BEING AN OUTSIDER AND JUST SAY FUCK IT! AND ENJOY THE ATTENTION!

I work alone, but know what you mean about the mom thing. Last week I asked her if I could take a whole thing of oatmeal she had back to my apartment. The next thing she asked was I on steroids, just because I was eating a lot of oatmeal. I started rolling, and was like that made no sense. Funny thing when I was on, she never said anything. Funny how moms think, and yes in general nobody understands the BB unless they are a BB.

Very true. Before I ever juiced I got the question "are you on steroids?" by my mom. I laughed and said I'd be huge if I was. Funny thing too, when I actually did my cycle and blew up, she never asked or hinted or anything. It's weird.

You know where I really get the freak grilling and freak looks is at the grocery store. I buy a weeks worth of food at one time so I don't have to shop daily so my cart is stocked with bodybuilding goodies that are anomilies to the general US population...You know...skinless chicken breasts, fat free cottage cheese, sweet potatos, brown rice, tuna, plain oats, broccoli, and all in quanities to feed a small nation(it takes lot of food to get 5500 cals a day). I get the "looks" because I don't have 10 bags of chips, 3 boxes of doughnuts, snake cakes, pounds of butter, sugar loaded cerials, and a 24 pack of sugar saturated soda in my cart....you know, like everyone else does. I look the part, but the people still can't figure out why I have those particular food items in those quanities in my cart.

The thing that bothers me the most is that people actually ask me about my food selection and why I have soooo much "healthy" food. Them asking doesn't bother me...It's them saying (after I explain bodybuilding and my diet to them)..." I didn't know you had to eat a certain way to grow muslces". The ignorance is absolutely frightening. I guess they think you just lift weights and eat twinkies and have deep fried foods like everybody else and just because you work out you get massive, stay lean, and look good. It baffles me.

People ask me what I've been taking. I'm not on right now, just dieting strictly. Most people have no willpower whatsoever. I wrote out a diet for a friend of mine because we wantsto lose weight for her vacation. I wrote out the diet and after 2 days she said she wasn't going to do my diet because it was too hard, and she didn't like eating chicken. She's going to do things her way, 3 small meals a day, eating nothing but fruit.

A surgeon I work with told me she stopped working out because her trainer was making her work too hard, and her legs were bulking up. Give me a fucking break!!! Like her legs could bulk with the pussy weights she lifts... Tone I could see, but not bulk. So many women are against lifting weights for that main reason, they don't want to bulk. Hmmm... correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't it take a sufficient amount of protein and testosterone to build muscle? I know women can build muscle, but naturally they can't put on the muscle that we can because they don't have the testosterone. Anyone else's thoughts on this?

my co-workers look at me crooked all the time for going from 168 to 197 in 8 weeks! hehe

Yes, women will not get freakishly huge or bulk up without the use of added test etc. Their legs will grow better than the rest but just lifting free weights won't make them huge. Every girl I've seen/know that lifts free weights consistently look great! They are toned and not "too muscular"! It's a myth that lifting for chicks is wrong. Maybe it's one the LAZY females came up with.

I don't understand this surgeon at all. It's amazing how little she knows about nutrition for being a fucking doctor. But we live the lifestyle, and read about it every day, so I guess it makes sense in a way.

This doctor is so damn hot too. She's Phillipino, nice tits, hot as hell. And she's definately bi, the way she talks about women. I told her I thought that Gwen Stefani, from the band No Doubt, was totally hot. She said, "I know, but you'd have to fight me for her!"

Anyway, what amazes me is how people ask me for advise on diet and exercise, but no matter what I tell them they don't do it, or don't believe me. Okay, I got this way by eating the same shit that you do, and sitting on the couch watching tv. What the fuck? I'm asked how many hours a day do I spend in the gym. When I tell them it's about 45 minutes, 4 days a week, they think I'm totally lying. It's about intense quality, not quantity.

 

[P-DUB]

I can relate to these tale sof ingorance and stupidity!

But I'm fortunate enough to have a coulpe of secretaries who are a little over weight and they asked my advise on how to loose the weight. Well, after several discussions on proper dieting, exercise, rest, etc...(you know all that stuff), they finally appreciate the will power and determiniation to do what it is we do! The eating, training, etc...so they've gotten to the point of complimenting me when they notice I've bulked up, or started to get leaner. They fell off of their diets, but they at least have more knowledge and appreciation for what our world is like.

I'm also VERY lucjy...my GF is an acrobatic gymnist who also beleives in eating healthy, getting plenty of rest...and LOTS OF SEX...Pus she's hot as hell!!!!!

So, try not to take what the "general public" has to say personally, it's just their own ingorance and jealousy. They can't do what WE do and look as good as we do!

P-DUB

 

[rnch]

most of my co-workers are in their 40's and 50's, and look even older.

they can't understand how i "eat so often" and don't gain weight like they are doing so rapidly. same with increased bottled water intake and frequent bathroom visits.

while i stay loyal to home cooked chicken, steak, green peas, brown rice and protein bars, they pig out on popeye's fried chicken and gravy laden po-boys ( subs to ther rest of the world).

they can't believe that i turn down overtime money b/c i need gym time.

they tease me about "discovering the middle-aged fountain of youth", yet they get pissed when their wives and daughters and sons compliment my chest, arms, and reduced stomach size in front of them.

foik 'em. i plan on being alive to enjoy my retirement, long after they drop dead from working 12 to 16 hour days and eating unhealthy fast food.

 

[Blkout]

Everyone at work calls me Big Guy so I'm happy with that. I get various comments, but none are negative other than a few suspect I'm juicing. Who cares if I am or not, its jealousy that drives people to ask that question. The downside is that whenever someone at work needs something heavy moved, they always come get me.

 

[Surgical]

Blkout

same here, people always need help lifting things, "hey, we need your muscles."

but the general public's lack of knowledge just boggles me. I'm in the healthcare field, and that's even more scary.

Some of the girls at work are having a "weight loss challenge" and one girls asked me if I wanted to join in because I've been dieting. The girl who started it said NO, you're a male, males lose fat quicker, and you've already lost some weight.

Basically I'm being blackballed from the contest because I know how to diet and I can lose more bodyfat than any of them. And there is about $200 at stake and no one wants me to win!!!

 

[supertech69]

The people at the grocery store think I'm nuts! I'll have a cart full of health food then right there on top of it all is, oh yes, my favorite cheat, Oreo's w/the fudge center! Kinda defeats the purpose of buying lean beef huh?

 

[soflaguy]

Screw all those people at work! (Literally of course, when it comes to the hot chic). I remember when I got out of college, and I went to work in "corporate" America. Most of those people were/are so damn negative and lazy, that they will pull you down.
For most of them they strive for mediocrity. When they see someone better than them, it conflicts with their comfortable, pathetic, normal lives.
You'll hear them say things like "Wish I had the time to work out, but I have a house, kids, excuse, excuse, etc.". They will actually make you feel guilty.
For a while, I did feel sort of stupid bringing supplements and water to work, but now I don't give a shit.
I literally carry a small backpack that holds my creatine, glutamine, Vit C/E & ALA, a jug of water, protein bars, etc. I reach into it at least once an hour.
For me I don't take smoke breaks or coffee breaks, which others do to handle stress and get an energy boost. My body not only looks better than theirs, but I out-perform them work-wise as well.

Bottom line, there are only positives from working out and eating healthy. There is nothing to be ashamed of or be embarrassed about.

 

[Mr_Pincushonass]

Bro, she probably likes you. She probably said that because she wants to see you out at the clubs......... duuu.......

 

[RoNiN]

Sometimes i feel like i'm an alien from another planet when people at work see me so serious about bodybuilding. The dieting , the food intake , the supplements , the size changes , they all look at me like i have green skin.

I feel like i'm not accepted or not understood...like i don't fit in...but that doesn't matter...I LOOK BETTER ;-)

 

[myasshurts]

I'm the crazy heivyweight wrestler at my college. I let my hair go wild to help with that. It is sure fun going to parties. Just don't make it so obvious that you are carrying food around and you won't seem so wierd. If they don't ever see you eat or carry food around then it makes them wonder. Thats what I do. Lose the cooler and just carry sandwiches!
