I think my life would have taken a  drastically different course had I not spent decades obsessing over getting huge. How about you   ???

I probably would have just done some light jogging or district walking a few times a week.

Career wise I would have loved to own and operate a hot dog truck in a quiet area of town or been employed by the Sanitation Department.

Yes Sir. I grew up in boxing, my dad boxed. I was always into martial arts like most 80s/90s kids and when MMA became a thing, I was on board. But that bodybuilding bug bit me and I was smitten.  :-X

Similar for me. I loved Bloodsport. Did you also watch the ninja movies with Sho Kosugi like Pray for Death and Return of the Ninja?

I would have less money.

I wouldn’t have had a back injury in the 2010’s.

As someone who grew upon the wrong side of the tracks and got myself in a fair bit of trouble. Bodybuilding saved me from myself, I have benefited greatly from a life of structure and routine. Its also taught me how to set goals and achieve them, how success is determined from identifying your weaknesses as early as possible and working harder on them than your strengths. Obviously I'm not talking about long term high level competitive bodybuilding, which we know is counter productive to life in nearly all cases. But a life of training and routine has helped many people, I owe bodybuilding or training and the gym everything, I'm eternally grateful to the introduction to the gym even now decades after competitive bodybuilding I'm still benefiting from it balancing my life.

I would look like three legged guy.
The mass i gained in my thights did help making my dick look smaller, and more normal.

I can relate, and couldn`t have put it so eloquently.
