Sleeveless shirts in the gym...u wear em?
« on: November 20, 2007, 06:50:52 PM »
seems as though 99% of males (from 14 yr old kid to 70 yr old man ) sports this look. I prefer not to. A gym worker asked me why I don't go sleeveless just as a 40? yr old man (with hat on backwards) passes by....I just pointed at this dude and continued my workout. Curious if they're delusional or is it a comfort thing? I think it looks pathetic, nice physique or not.....

I wear any clean shirt I can find in my condo at the time... I could care less
Would you purposely put on a shirt without sleeves?

If I ran out of clean sleeveless tee's I'd take a regular tee and purposely cut off the sleeves cause I'm just cool like that.

what the fuck are you tallking about? i was just using him as an example.. that guys that actually have muscle dont feel the need to show it off. were in their to bust ass, not to get attention..

wear whatever the fuck you want to. if a sleevless shirt and mini shorts makes you feel badass then do it.

nope..i prefer to keep my sweat to myself and keep other people's germs on the equipment instead of it hopping onto my skin.

and i don't feel the need to show off what i've got...

That's just the current fashion, regardless of whether you workout or not. Personally, I never do.

No. I wear thick long sleeved shirts. I take it off when I got a huge pump. Best of both worlds.  :D

Because they live in the real world where most people (read girls) don't give 2 shits about arm size and such Mars.

But it's good they do, cause we here at Getbig can bash them to our hearts content ;D

I sometimes wear them, just because Aussie summers can be a bitch.
You know if you wear one most people in the gym wouldn't even notice. Why do you guys care so much about what guys wear ???
