I love going to the gym but as much as I say it's for functional purposes, which it really is considering the ever increasing weight of the population and how much I have to move them at work, I do notice my physique getting better and I'm afraid of the superficial tendencies that I once had returning by admiring my progress.
Haha oh no other people are becoming to fat which is in turn making me more muscular having to move them oh no hehe.
This tbh is one of the biggest catalysts of my life so far. My disposition has always been towards strong and healthy bodies that look aesthetically pleasing both women and males, an lady with rock hard abs and some veins popping out is much more attractive to me then the mainstream classification of beauty.
After a childhood of being an average looking kid who was athletic and fit but still a bit chubby I spent about 5 years getting my body to where it is now, very thin and very muscular. After all that and experiencing the change in how people view me on the outside I learnt it doesn't really change you on the inside if your still viewing it as a superficial goal to be achieved.
I love working out and I love staying strong and fit regardless of how I look, I realized it was about me keeping the mind/body/spirit trinity strong and intact, I'am working my body like I work my mind. While at the same time I see my physical appearance creating a sense of comfort in others of strength and ability, people constantly ask me for advice and it makes me feel good seeing other guys and girls start going to the gym and making improvements.
Basically I'am going for the big friendly giant vibe, the I'am strong beyond measure and can bend this chemical world to my will through sheer strength BUT so can you, that's what I'am all about with my weightlifting.
