It was just a machine rather than free weights, but I bench pressed 225 lbs yesterday. Haven't done that since I was in my twenties.
- What is it about forcing your poor body to lift stupidly heavy weights in order to bloat the muscles for aesthetics is healthy exactly?set
- There's a lot of benefits to weight lifting my young dumb childpinkfloyd
- I do it casually thoughpinkfloyd
- set, you lost this intellectual debate before it starteddrgs
- Swollen muscles for aesthetics is not healthy. Naturally I assumed my comment would warrant very defensive comments from the idiots.set
- So no surprises today.set
- completely the opposite: the flabbier the loser, the more hostile he is towards anything gym related. A rule from which man knows no exceptiondrgs
- Being flabby and unfit as almost as retarded as being a swollen, stiff condom full of walnuts. I agree.set
- Neither myself or anyone I know is near that. There are people who take it to the extreme, but you cannot use them as examples to justify your own laziness.drgs
- You assume I'm lazy because...?set
- I know sodrgs
- The psbattles has turned set from a cunt to a diva cuntpinkfloyd
- lol at you think you know so. Hahaha. Anyone who suggests swelling up your muscles to look big must naturally not exercise at all. Retards everywhere.set
- I'm with set.
This new health instagram hashtag shit has nothing to do with actual health.soundofreason - While we're at it it's the same thing for fitness. It's all about promoting a specific body type.soundofreason
- Look at track and field athletes, they are all FIT for a specific discipline, therefore the different body types.
Just admit you like to look good in a bikini.soundofreason - Athletes are actually LESS healthy than non-athletes. Because of their training they are more likely to get INJURED.soundofreason

I run marathons, I have a resting heart rate under 50 bpm but in the end I'm no way healthier than someone with one of 70bpm.soundofreason - #

His is a great story, and it looks like he did need to lose some weight to become healthy.
...soundofreason - "you realize how important your health and appearance really are most of all mentally."
Bozsoundofreason - He is admitting that "looking good" is what weight lifting is about which was my point all along. I'm not against weightlifting. I'm against the health hashtag.soundofreason
- If he would have only lost some weight he would have healthy as well. He is not healthier for lifting weights. Here's an anlogy that might help:soundofreason
- Drinking too much is bad for your liver but say your liver can handle a glass of beer a day. If you don't go over that you're healthy.soundofreason
- Somebody that doesn't drink any alcohol at all is not healthier. That person might do it for moral or religious reasons.soundofreason
- I'm not against that person not drinking, I know some people like that in real life. I would give that person shit for sticking a health hashtag on it though.soundofreason
- And to leave out holes in my analogy* let's say that the beer you drink everyday is light and gluten free.

Seriously, this is idea of health you buy into? I guess they must be right because they have Health in their title.soundofreason - I don't understand why you think vanity negates health? Vanity is a separate, unrelated quality. You can be one of each or both togetherdrgs
- You can be both or many things more. You can also take great care of your hair and have a fabulous mane. I would still argue it has nothing to with health.soundofreason
- I don't think vanity negates health. I don't think lifting weights makes you either unhealthy or healthy. We're going in circles here.
I'm out :)soundofreason - tldr;pinkfloyd
- No worries pinkfloyd, I figured reading wasn't your strength. That text was intended for drgs. I'll be drawing you a picture, stay tuned and #stayhealthy.soundofreason
