my favorite reason for being big

**swordsmanzenn** · 03-25-2007, 09:40 AM

going to the crowded mall with a tight shirt. hehe everyone turns their head or gets out of my way. compared to my BBing bretheren i'm not so big. but to average peeps in tha mall

i am huge. people tel me im huge alot and i know im not. but yeah i love that feeling and the tight shirt helps alot. anyone else agree?

You can be at 90% bodyfat and have an extremely tight shirt and people at the mall will also look at you before getting out the way. Find a better reason.

**LMW** · 03-25-2007, 09:53 AM

i doubt people get out of your way because they think you are too swole

**nitrored** · 03-25-2007, 09:54 AM

Disagree... you see any 120lb twit in a wife beater thinking they are huge. When your big you wont be able to hide it under a baggie shirt...

so your main motivation to work on growing muscle is to intimidate people? scars and tatoos can do that, you don't need to go to the gym just to be scary.

anyone who knows a little about martial arts won't be intimidated by a huge guy anyways.

Couldn't give a **** for getting people's attention, but being bigger does make life easier. When I was small, even totally minding my own business I'd occasionally have someone getting in my face wanting to start something for some stupid reason or no reason at all. You can have all the martial arts or boxing skills in the world and if you're small there are people who will always be calling your bluff.

These days nothing. Smaller guys don't want to take the risk of getting pounded and big guys just figure it's not worth the effort and would rather bully someone smaller. Gives you more confidence (especially when you can back it up) which you shouldn't ever abuse, but it does make life easier overall so I'm comfortable with it.

good point.

**swordsmanzenn** · 03-25-2007, 10:08 AM

i don't BB to intemidate people. i like to be imposing. i like people to be like oh that guys i big. i also agre with Dom. when i was younger people try to start fights with me too. but now they would even try it. the other day a guy was mouthing off to my friend cause he said he didnt smoke and i said the same and he didnt say ****. but no i like to be a spectacle. being intemidating is good but thats not my reason i was getting across. i always liked the thought of being big and now that im getting there i feel so good and i like to show it off. i hated being small, average, and weak looking. i love all the other aspects of BB (strength, self satisfaction, a hobby) enough said

I like to wear somewhat loose shirts, when people stair at you then, then you know its for good reasons and not just because your wearing a shirt meant for your girlfriend.

QFT...

**jmonty** · 03-25-2007, 10:17 AM

i'm not big but i find it embarressing when people are like, 'oh don't mess with him (me) 'cause he's big and he'd kick your ass'.

or when they learn that you like to lift weights so they assume you are some dumb ass like steriotypical high school foot ball player or dumb jock..

**Andershocknic** · 03-25-2007, 10:32 AM

are the shirts your wearig like medium child size? its more impressive to have to wear an Xl, XXL becasue your shoulders are too broad, then try and show off what you have with tight stuff... thats actualuy the main reason hate going to the mall, bunch of lil wana be buff kids wearing beaters, or havin the tatto on the arm and having one sleave rolled up to show it off. and maybe its just NW indiana, but theres and endless quanity of them. I could probably run over 3 of them every day and be able to do it continuously every day for 8-9 months. And thats my lil rant. obviously i'm not literaly going to run them over, i just hate arogant posers with a passion .

anyway, back to thwe originaly topic question.. In high school i never had any problems with anybody, due to my size, i was 265 the last 2 1/2 years of high school. granted i was between 20-23 % bf, but i was athletic, and that aidsed me in avoiding confrontations.

Do you also wear tight pants? Or do you have chicken legs?

Make sure to powerwalk through the mall, right into "Abercrombie and Fitch".

Stand at the counter doing a Lat spread. Looking towards the cashiers but not directly at them. Make sure to stare PAST them.

If anyone says anything, about every 3rd statement or comment say HUH? at the top of your lungs.

The majority of people who bodybuild, do it because they like to get attention from the opposite sex, or even from their fellow mates. If they bust their asses in the gym and they stay dedicated throughout, what's the problem with showing off their hard work? Lots of ppl complain how they lose motivation after a while, but maybe 'walking through the mall and intimdating ppl' is someone's personal motivation.

I wear tight shirts and relatively tight jeans, not only because i like to 'show off', but i find it to be elegant and a good style (born and raised in Europe). People who sag their jeans and wear shirts 2-3 sizes bigger than them, are just...sad.

In the end, it's all a matter of perspective.

**Ajk_Lpool** · 03-25-2007, 01:26 PM
