I would have to be this size to wear a tank at the gym

You would have to be able to have at least something to show with some considerable size...not like some of these 160lb twigs that wear tank tops yet they struggle to dumbbell press a pair of 70lb bells.

something like maybe if I were to wear a tank at the gym

exactly, now if i looked like that i'd wear one but i can't tell you how many skinny/fat 171 pounders wearing them and i'm like, WTF?

Bluto · « **Reply #5 on:** November 07, 2007, 01:15:18 PM »

maybe they wear it because how it feels, not how it looks?

maybe they dont give a shit? not everyone spends their time in the gym WORRYING about how others see them like you

let's say if you are 180cm
you'd have to be 90kg at a good BF to wear them

the big guys knows not to wear tanktops, like nasser who never did because he wanted to stay warm to prevent injuries and getting colds

I think almost everyone spends their time in the gym BECAUSE they are worried about how others see them.

But I concur that a TapOut tank should be worn at every size. Other than that, the only reason to wear one is if you have grown so much that it is difficult to find clothes that fit anymore (a problem that multiple people on this board have).

Michael looks great.

I prefer wearing sweaters. I find them more comfortable and I won't get cold during rest periods between sets.

What you wear to the gym should not be dictated by what others might think.

michael arvilla · « **Reply #21 on:** November 07, 2007, 01:49:56 PM »

OK................here are my quads!!.

Doug_Steele · « **Reply #22 on:** November 07, 2007, 01:53:54 PM »

This is a stupid question. Who the hell cares what he/she wears to the gym aslong as you are busting your ass. I guess it is more applealing to what some people are wearing instead of what you are suppose to do...TRAIN, BALLS TO THE WALLS.

So true. It's silly to see someone post a question like this. There are so many insecure guys in bodybuilding.
