When did it become cool for a grown ass man to not be able to bench press 75% of his weight?

100% I lift more than anyone here, unless there are some legit (steroid) lifters here. It doesn't mean shyt and these days I bench insanely light, my shoulders have been fukked from wrestling and lifting incorrectly on top of that. A bench press and a lot of the other popular lifts rarely transfer over outside of the gym but I don't train for explosiveness, etc but I might start when I get older. My dad is a freak and left behind beachbody lifts a long time ago, don't know if he is natural because I was always afraid to ask him. lol

edit: Also, lifting is a waste of time especially when you start incorporating a strict diet, I would suggest sticking to keeping your body healthy through diet, cardio, and light weightlifting. Do it if you enjoy it, not because some loser calls you a p*ssy for not lifting. I would have quit a long time ago if I didn't have such an obsessive mindset.

:wow:

I can't believe these guys got so emotional over this thread

The original post said

"Back in my day you were expected to be stronger than your girlfriend"

Dudes are livid because society expects them to be stronger than the woman they're dating. :mjlol:

Your estrogen levels have to be through the roof to come in here talking about "bu bu bu bu why you worried about the next man?"

Tell on yourselves, brehs.
If thats the case then i agree

A nikka should atleast be stronger than his girl

I agree with @houston911 but just because you fit and have strength don't necessarily mean you can't get washed in a fight. I done seen skinny n!ggas knock big n!ggas clean the fvck out. Hood sh!t. Get ya hands right. I'm 230 lbs of muscle and in the gym damn near every day but I also know how to throw mines. Ya'll n!ggas don't be up in here acting like all you need is muscles. You better know how to scrap.

you must be a basketball player slim type dude

i got defensive end legs

i aint fukking with a broad legs bigger than mines

cause she would have to be short and obese
or on steriods hgh and have a fat transfer to her thighs


your legs are the foundation

if your legs slimmer than your gurls
then she legit can slam you
My girlfriend's thighs could probably crush a skull.
The years of heavy leg workouts it would take me to get to her thigh size is impractical.
And yeah, I'm pretty slim.

Let me paint a picture for you

I walk up to you and your wife, I grab her hand gently and tell her

"Hey baby girl, what are you doing with this sucker? If me and him were locked up in the same cell I'd have him hand washing my socks and underwear"

Your wife laughs flirtatiously and puts her hand on my chest while saying "boi stop, you're so silly"

She then looks at you as if she's a lost and hungry child in need of leadership and direction.

Instead of checking me, you tell her "hey honey, let's go. Love and hip hop starts in 30 mins and I don't wanna miss the beginning. Can you go get the car? You're faster than me"

I walk your wife to the garage while she gets the car. I slide her my business card and tell her to hit me up when she's free.

You know what happens next. :smugfavre:


situation continued:

Your wife hits me up

I come to the crib, she gives me the best head EVER. I strap up and I'm knocking it out the frame

You come home and catch us in bed. I haven't got my nut yet and I don't respect you as a man so I keep going.

You start crying like a little girl and you run to the closet to grab your gun.

You try to shoot me, but the tears in your eyes are messing with your vision, you're too weak to handle to kickback on the gun, and I'm thrusting so fast that you can't catch me. You try to shoot me, you miss and fall over. I pull my pistol out and shoot you while I'm hitting your wife from the back.

You die, your wife collects the insurance money and buys me a luxury car.


You see that right there? THATS why I care.

Dudes out here are talking fast and loose about seducing other men's wives at gunpoint, while posting twenty times a day on the Coli. That's none of my business though :sas1:

They already do. It's pathetic. I can't respect any man of any size if they've never been in a fist fight. It tells me they're willing to concede when standing their ground means something. It also shows me they're sneaky. When I was coming up if you couldn't bench some real weight, do one pull up, and had never fought for anything you were considered food.

I hate when I see two guys arguing. One of them has clearly decided to get physical. The other one is trying to negotiate and reason with the aggressor when it's past the time for talk. Don't argue with a man if you're not willing to get punched in the face. Physical violence keeps the food chain as it should be. Everyone knows who they can and can't see in a fight. It keeps people respectful.
Why are you so emotional over other men? :mjlol: You acting like we so in a stone age where we killing dinosaurs.

These threads pop up more and more since this trend of thirst trapping gym models nshyt started becoming more n more popular. :francis:

Alot of yall damn near 30 talking about "when my wife/gf:duck: are in danger" when yall supposedly HOH and GMB:rudy:. You too old to be fighting nikkas for checking out you girl in public.
This and being realistic who is past HS age really getting into them type of situations that some people talking about? I doubt even 5 people on here has had that happened so disrespectfully but that's why cats really lifting? Nah son.
