Amen....I listened to that idiotic reasoning for 6 years selling equipment......sometimes, even from the men. Although one day a guy was in with his wife and said "I want to get toned, not as big as you...." and pointed at me. His wife laughed and said "I don't think you have anything to worry about, honey..." hahah, we laughed about it forever after that......
It's so crazy how delusional people are, I don't even get upset anymore.
We have a fat porker at work who tells everyone proudly how he starts jogging now to drop weight and gets in great beach shape. When you tell him he has to get to the gym to shape his body it comes the typical "You think I wanna look like Schwarzenegger?" bullshit. I just shake my head in disbelief after that and go the other way before getting into any kind of discussion lol.
Most people really think a lil jogging = -> the ripped Ryan Reynolds body; a lil weight training = -> Arnolds body.
Unbelieveable. That's like saying "no, I don't play soccer with my buddies this weekend, you think I wanna become the next Ronaldinho?"
