I went into the pharmacy the other day, and these 2 fat guys where buying those mass builder, and muscle builder and super muscularis and what ever the hell you call that stuff, big huge bottles of pills, giant bottles of powder, muscle supplement bars, they forked out around $600 worth for the stuff, and the one guy says to the other one, I can't believe all this is just for one month... I just stood there and went WTF

Now these guys where fat, they needed to not eat what they where eating, and they needed an exercise program, and it looked to me like they thought those bottles of shit would exercise for them. What a waste of cash.

Now I have seen some of the workers here on the farms, These people have no cash for balanced diets, they drink every cent they get... They however have to move 40tons of feed bags weighing 40 kg each by hand from a truck to the barn, they have to dig holes, they have to move rocks, they do all the heavy labour work... People would kill to have the bodies that some of them have.

The one guy that works here on the farm where I live picks up 2 40 kg feed bags like they are nothing then he'll walk to where ever he needs to go with them before putting them down, I'm talking freaken far... thats just crazy shit.

Most people who are fat looking may actually be quite muscular. They go to the gym and get pumped and then they look defined. So they think if they just worked out harder and got bigger theyd look pumped all the time, not realizing that theyll just look fatter.

sigh...people are stupid. They are always finding a new outlet for it

I know what you mean by gym guys that look fat that just keep adding and adding weights and keep on getting more muscular and more muscular but never defined, one of those guys in the pharmacy though was not one of those, his gut was about the size of a small car.

well obviously someone like the people you are describing need to just hit a thread mill and not take a bunch of weight gainer products. the problem with most of those products is that yes...they do have more calories and a ton of carbs...but if you read the label all those carbs are from sugar...that ain't good...

but i've had similar diets where i would go through a large container of stuff like that in 7-8 days...it just depends on what you're doing....

day 1 (2) of my 12 day program, i'm way de energised since about 2pm, absolutely sick of philadelphia, and my legs have been killing me all day. the 1st and last are meant to stop in a days time, luckily. and i'm so hungry devoured a 10 euro fillet steak in under 10minutes. need rest gonna go bed and watch solaris now.

orbax, you can defo see the improvement in the abs in the 2nd pic, not really the 1st, funny how lighting conditions can totally change the look of them

I remember when I first started lifting (before I educated myself on diet) I would come back from the gym and drink a MegaMass 2000 shake, like right at 9:30 - 10:00 at night and then go to bed! 2000 calories right before bed! If I was out of Megamass mix, I would substitute two Whoppers with extra mayo!

Holy shit I'm surprised I didn't die from all that sugar and on the flipside from all that fat.

I really think I should get of my lazy ass, I haven't done 1 bit of exercise since the first week of dec. All I been doing is riding horses, and playing with my dog which isn't too bad cause I sprint 50m up and down the yard with him, trying to beat him from one tree to another, and I do about 500 m worth of this as fast as I can every day (I don't beat him yet though, unless he sees something more interessting than racing).

I am to lazy to start exercise though, I look at my hangboard *sigh*, I look at my running shoes *sigh* , I look at my dumbells *SIGH*, nah I'll start tommoro *sigh*

bahahah omg dude, thats disgusting!

I can kind of see why anorexics do this btw. Its kind of addictive to see your body start defining itself. And of course I have Crazy Amounts Of ENerrygygyyy right now. AMazing what not eating does for you in that department. Im definitely gonna run to the gym from now on. Man with the cold and the 3 mile run there....i get into the warm gym and my vision is frigging swimming! But then i grab some heavy ass weights and throw em around like they are nothing hehe. mauahhaahaha i love it.

I used to experience that in college. I used to go lift before classes at about 5:30a and during the winter it got so cold that you pretty much had to run or you weren't going to make it. And then when you finally got there and that rush of warmth hit you...wow! It was almost euphoric!

sure my shakes are about 1400 calories, 2 of them a day, not one bit of fat gained tastes sugary sweet, but i don't think there's actually any sugar in them
