Too funny- there is a guy at my gym who I always noticed in passing. Younger guy and seemed to be in great shape. Then I saw him working out on a leg day where his form on the standing calf raises made my back hurt and he was using all of 2 plates on a leg press. Now whenever I see him I cannot look away. He had some weird press/hold thing going on the other day. I swear this is what he would look like with shorter pants.


Its almost like the goal is to have disproportionate/underdeveloped legs.

I train my legs for tone, not for bulk. I have to wear suits to work so I don't want my pants too be too tight. On the other hand, some of the guys in my office hnnnnnng (just don't tell DW).

Well there goes 31 seconds of my life wasted that I will never get back.


OP: whatever works for you is what you should however, your pushing your agenda on others is not necessary and can become very annoying very quickly.
