It was the USA Today's report from the Federal Government's agency for physical fitness... it was posted on the wall...
Being ripped to validate oneself? You are missing the picture entirely, which is why, having not the dedication to complete the circle... Physical Health, Mental Health and Spiritual Health, that you will never see or relate to what I am talking about...
Sure... workout.. the "weekend warriors" that Frackal speaks of... You workout... but you do not build... You do not respect those who sacrifice... because you, yourself, have never sacrificed in this way...
As for jobs, I have one... sometimes two. I contract work as an attorney, and still find time to train a heavy regime... soon, I will be working as a personal trainer, as an attorney during the remaining hours of the day (20+ week) and quite possibly at nightclubs on the weekends... Will you see me not workout? Will you see me give up the Physical health...
Physical Health, Mental Health, and Spiritual health... you can't be complete without all three... you puc, as well as others on this board, lack the first, if not more

Where the FUCK do you and your cronies get the idea that i am out of shape? I am actually in reasonably good shape. I am NOT fat. The fat thing is legacy because I have posted numerous times about being a fat child and its effects on my psyche (the first of which being, i am guilty of needing to be ripped to validate myself). Just wanted to clear that up.
Now, lets look at your trinity of health you've got there.... Let me toss a couple names at you:
1) Stephen hawking.
2) FDR
Were they not complete? If they weren't, I challenge that being "complete" is a virtue. "complete" is just semantics for "well rounded." Well rounded is hardly the definition of success in life. Indeed, many of our most respected leaders, historical figures, etc. failed your criteria.
Also, where do you get the idea that i have never sacrificed in this way. While you and frackmunchie are cruising the archives, why don't you roll back to January of 2000. There you will find a posts of mine talking about the hell i put myself through to cut 100 lbs, down to a ripped 165. Look at where I talk about how to put on 35 lbs of muscle in 18 months. I have been there before, poopy head. I am simply past the point in my life where I am willing to sacrifice career and happiness for one more rep in the gym. But, this does not make me less of a person, it makes me a more "complete" person, which makes me more in line with your virtues described above.
You talk about being "complete" but ridicule me for being "complete." make up your fucking mind.
Also, assface, I just completed a 3 month stretch where i was working 80 hours a week. 80 hours a week building enterprise applications which i KNEW would make or break my young company. I stopped working out. Not because i did not have the time, but because every spare moment of time i could have used in the gym, I needed to sleep in order to avoid the burnout that programmers experience when working extended hours. I won. Now, I am back in the gym. 2 months from now noone will ever know that i took a break. 2 months from now, the gym will still be there. 2 months from now i will still be a success in my business, too. It is all about prioritizing properly.
