internet muscle vs real world muscle

[chazk]

How many guys do you think lie online about their weight, body fat, max lifts and so on.

I mean I have called guys out in the gyms i have worked out at over the years.
guy claimed he had 21 inch arms I brought a tape and threw it at him and said prove it and that i was tored of his bullshit.
measured 18 cold then he pumped them to 18 3/4
far cry from 21

Guys have claimed to bench over 500lbs raw with no belts , no elbow wraps shirts nothing.
I talked to the gym owner and set up a saturday powerlifting meet with a 100$ cash prize for anyone to break the 500lb bench mark or
and break 1800 total.
(No one pressed over 450lbs and totaled over 1500)


So do you guys think people online lie and if so how much?

Me I know I'm not the strongest or weakest guy or biggest or smallest I fall somewhere right in the middle and I'm not afraid to admit it,but its also what keeps me striving for more.

guys have a tendency to exaggerate, period. internet or real life.

now that i have some experience with steroids under my belt i often raise an eyebrow when i read some of the results some guys get. or claim to.

my friend in the army told me he could bench 315 no problem....when he came back home he went to the gym with me.......i told him theres no way he could bench 315....i told him i would give him 50 bucks if he could do 275 once....i gave him a lift on 275 and that bar crashed down on his chest instantly......i had to pull it off of him
