we DO NOT gatekeep with this post! we’re poking fun at modern bodybuilding which emphasizes appearance and size far above performance and even health.
100% full respect to this guy! the only thing to laugh at is the social landscape which got us here :)
I am 46 and was in the ICU a couple months ago with super high blood pressure and a false alarm for a stroke. Up until last week, I hadn’t ran for proper exercise in 20 years:
I can push myself to two miles, but it hurts. It only took a couple of months to work up to this point, so that was cool.
But still, if he wants to show off that he is doing just a little better than a 46 year old with cardiovascular issues he can go right ahead. I ain’t going to yuck anyone else’s yum, but a comparison needed to be made.
Edit: Fitbit doesn’t separate workout types that well without planning ahead and configuring a workout routine. “Lap 2” was a running mile, and the rest of the laps are walking.
I’d argue you’re way more fit than the pathetic poser in the OP.
hells yeah friend! my best wishes on your journey. 💞 thanks for sharing.
