      I've done some research as well and it's a proven fact that vegan girls smell the best.

      And taste the best

          Why thank you. Plenty more where that comes from! I am very comfortable in my own skin and love making people feel uncomfortable in theirs…as long as they are bigoted, ignorant, sexist, racist, homophobes. Plenty of fodder therefore in my home county (Essex, UK) so I've had plenty of practice! To the extent that I made it my profession (social worker). I wanted the post of Travis Bickle but the job centre said they weren't recruiting to that post again 😠

              I should also mention a major downside to the carb-based diet: I have surface veins and vessels where there should be none. My legs look like a map, and not all the roads are straight ones. I like to keep a shirt on at the pool. Think Iggy Pop. You will not get the chix.

              I’m pretty sure Iggy Pop did aright with the ladies. Guy was always ripped. Still is for his age

              Maybe so. Maybe not

                John Joseph is very inspirational (singer for the hard-core punk band Cro-Mags). He competes in iron man triathlon comps and is vegan. His life story is the stuff of Hollywood movies. He's in his 50s now and one fit dude.

                            I'm 6'1" and weigh between 155 and 160 depending on the day.  I hope to god I never gain another ounce.

                              This is true.  Most skinny people fall into the "soft" category.  Definitely not my issue.  I've hovered as low as the mid-3's for body fat %.  It's what happens when you've spent the last 16 of your 31 years on earth averaging between 65-70 miles/week.

                                Everybody I have known who tried to put on weight ended up regretting it. I have never tried intentionally to change my physique, it changed for my needs. When I was a jarhead I was built for jarhead business. Now I am a desk jockey and just want to live forever.

                                Not at all the case in my experience.  I am 35 lbs heavier than I was in high school and I don't ever want to lose these 35 lbs. All of my friends who have started weight training and a few who are on Testosterone therapy have also put on some quality pounds and they couldn't be happier.  Obviously it depends on the type of weight we are talking about here but I think it goes without saying we are referring to lean mass and not fat.  I don't think anybody wakes up and says they would really like to have about 20 more lbs of fat on their body.

                                  Putting on weight as muscle is no problem if you do it properly. Raise your calorie intake over maintenance by 500kcal a day and train intelligently 3-5 days a week. Do this for two months and the kilos you put on will be mostly lean mass. The problem with old school "bulking" is that that like with everything else people want fast results, and pound in too many calories, they train, put on muscle, but put on fat too. Slow, steady, incremental gains is the key.

                                    Gyms are not necessary at the end of the day.  You can build a great physique without weights.  Prison inmates are perfect examples of that.

                                    I'm an ecto/meso so I've generally been a hardgainer but it can be done but I'll never be a massive dude without some synthetic help.  I've trained naturally every since I started lifting weights.

                                      Gaining extra mass is something I chased throughout my 20’s and into my 30’s. It was only when I got to 96kg I realised it was pointless and wasn’t doing me any good. Let alone the hassle of finding jeans that would fit over my legs. I am now 80kg and feel fitter and more comfortable than ever.
                                      To anyone trying to gain loads of mass I would say don’t bother it really isn’t worth it.

                                            Still controversial though. Good one.
