Bodybuilders Stigma - Why Meatheads are perceived this way
« on: October 23, 2014, 06:31:16 AM »
Ok, this clip has two bodybuilder stars big and ripped, exactly the way  "meat heads" are perceived ,

The sigma of BB, not matter how swollen still selfish, (attention whoring) and insecure .

1- The first bb, (Aaron Clark ) when asked to take his shirt off,  he does not hesitate, with a FINALLY ! expression on his face (which is fine with me on a bodybuilding expo) sad thing is that girls around won't give a F"

2- The best part is his fellow BB, Justin Compton  with the grey shirt on (even bigger and swollen)  instead of getting out of the way so the Aaron flexes for the cam, he tries at all cost to remain in the way, spreading them lats like he was caring out two buckets of water ...then when he does not know what to do, he leans on the counter right behind the guy flexing and spreads his lats like if Dorian was watching him. LOL

3- Then,  the shirtless bodybuilder decides to move to another area to pose "freely" but there's this kid right next to him looking at him like a dad to his son "why couldn't he pick football or baseball" expression on his face.

Enjoy :





WoooSSSHHHHHHHHHHHH

Yes, body dismorphia and bodybuilding are serious illnesses. When you have nothing in life to be proud of, all you re left with is your physical appearance. They re not different than stupid but good looking women. Others compensate for their ugliness or weak physical appearance with diplomas , salaries, material goods... that's just the way it is, we re all vain animals.

This is cringe-worthy. Exactly why I don't like being given the name bodybuilder. These guys don't even look good, distended bellies and holding gallons of water, can't even walk..

That'd be true (idk, maybe in US that is the rule), but I personally know medical professionals, lawyers, succesfull bussinessmans, etc (in almost 15 years I've know quite some people who are doing this activity) who are on drugs, and many of them are very stable individuals in many ways. I think some people (me included) just want to transcend the "human limits" and get even more of what's available in this world. I get a rush of even thinking about going "beyond current biological" limits, and that doesn't end with bb'ing.

yeah it sucks I attend conferences annually and whilst I know nearly all delegates and they know me, theres always new ones who single you out as who's that guy and just think your some meathead because your not in the bar everyday drinking. But then you see a bodybuilder like in the vid and you have to forgive them, bodybuilders are tools plain and simple, i tell people I just train with weights and used to play footy,helps that I dont look that way anymore as well, ask myself all the time what was I thinking but in saying that before business that was my passion and i enjoyed the lifestyle.

Lol.. that is nothing.. I'm an IT geek, now imagine when a regular client comes to hire me for some job and sees a seriously jacked fella (they expect something more like a stereotypical basement computer rat), I usualy have to be very nice and wellcoming to break the ice and let them know I'm not just a moron with muscles and they actually came to see me not someone else.

All drugs.  As with others of this kind I look forward to their personal "Road To Dialysis".  The pussification of men too impatient, too insecure and just plain old too stupid lazy to do anything worth anything except pose for schmoes.


To hell with these retards.  I imagine their obits will have something in them about how they loved Jesus and have gone home to be with Him.  The only "Jesus" these pathological buttwipes will ever know is Phat Jaysus the Hispandex Schmoe-King.

i knew alot of guys on the road to disaster who got blessed by having a kid with their wife/girlfreind and started realizing there r other important things in life besides trying to be the biggest dude around,they now had a baby to focus on and turn some of that obsessive behavior towards the baby. or maybe got a good promotion on their job n started seeing life alittle differently.a person can still bodybuild to their hearts desire n still have a great life outside the gym,thats what anybodys goal should be imo if u lift weights and wanna get the most life has to offer at the same time

I see it from a different perspective; you care too much about a midget, that suddenly starts to strike some poses.

most people just shift their focus toward smarter, more natural endeavours like studies, careers... doing so they re as obsessive as bodybuilders. It all depends of your upbringings, education, environment.

It was not until I had a son that I finally took serious look at my own OCD/bodybuilding/drugged lifestyle that I had been leading for 20 years.  I realized I was role modeling horrible behavior to a little kid who thought I was a god and was going to imitate me and my behavior patterns.  By the time he was around 2+ he noticed I looked different and was "big".

That was when I knew it was time to drop the lifestyle and narcissistic/abusive/unhealthy ways I had followed due to my own body dysmorphia.  Now he is 7 and I'm "normal" sized.  No regrets.
