lol,
Think Monte covered this. Although I'm a bit heavier, but my gut appears the same size. Prob just wrenching down on the old tape measure.
loco,
Literally no way to know. Sometimes I wish I could see what my back looks like when I pull, since I am a narcissist. But that would require me taking my shirt off and someone taking a video which is just absurd. Everytime I see some tool with a social media video of him doing pushdowns with his shirt off all oiled up, and I can't help but wonder at how that process must go and what other patrons think. Could def pass for an intro to a porn!
cit,
Sorry, I don't keep up with the colloquialisms of normies. I'm more used to using it like how it is used in the dictionary:
http://www.dictionary.com/browse/athletic
Good strawman btw. You may wanna reread what I actually wrote. There are dozens if not hundreds of regular athletes who compete at a national/international level. I've only trained with maybe a dozen who would be considered world class. (Hence why I say the Olympics/Worlds.) And some of these bros have medals. One is prob somewhere in the top 10-20 strongest people on the planet. It just provides good perspective on where you are in the world as opposed to just hanging out with a bunch of other derpy middle aged office workers who're just happy they can walk around without hurting themselves or whatever other feats of mediocrity they want to compare.
Regardless, I'll make a note if I interact with normies in one of these places you go where people bandy about words like "athletic" referencing other's appearance. (My goto is thick, solid and tight)
