The question "Do you work out?"

[HighIntensity]

this is in somewhat response to frac's post...why do people ask "do you work out" to muscler, vascular ripped BBuilders. This is the dumbest question I can think of. I mean I can tell if some lifts in a matter of seconds, even if they are wearing a thick sweater. It amazes me that people ask this question...

No I was born with a 52 inch chest and 17 inch arms, and yes my body has always been perfectly symetrical and my traps have always stuck out like this...amazing

any big guys get this question

and for some reason its 'bad' to work out on a regular basis

thats something ive noticed....if you say you work out more thn 1-2 times a day your suddenly too 'hardcore' for the majority of people and it freaks them out

I get it sometimes but perhaps it is due to my age. Some people act surprised that I still train. As if I naturally walk around at 255 lbs. It does get annoying after a couple of decades.

I get that a lot - sometimes even in the gym!!!!

I think that people are intrigued by fitness/bodybuilders and want to comment and maybe get some tips, but they aren't sure how to start a conversation.

I suppose it's a good way to get someone talking about their fitness routine. See what I mean?

So, if I'm in the mood to talk, I'll say yes, and then answer the 50 q's that inevitably come next, or I'll just say "no, why do you ask?"
if I'm not in the mood.

It's the same mentality that makes people ask "did you break your leg" when your from hip to toe in a cast...Or I love this one, it rains here in Ireland every fucking day and I arrive somewhere soaking wet and someone say's "Is it raining out".

I usually just say no. Then my wife will say yes he does he is just kidding! And then i agree.
