Its the entire board is a mix of addicts and obsessives, thats all.
I wouldnt say im addicted to gear...this past 16 months ive been OFF and on 100mg for the longest stretch since starting using. Is it tough sometimes? Yeah. But it has reaffirmed that im actually addicted to the gymmm...not the gear itself. I cannot take a step back or away from the gym. That is a fact. But i can take a step back from gear. And the vast majority in this thread are probably a mx. It honestly depends on WHY you got into this life anyways. If you came here to pick up chicks and define yourself, you probably love the gear because it equates to how you view yourself. If you just love training, you're ok. I wish it was a black and white thing but it isnt....lots of grey area.
Also as someone who hasnt been below 240-250 in yearsss, i do agree that its a size thing. Or at least that is a MAJOR part of it.
But the comment about, "we dont see classic guys or physique guys dying." You're right, we dont. But thats because, not to sound rude, but they didnt BUILD anything. To me its not the gear itself, its the years of adding additional weight and strain on your natural frame. If you are supposed to be 6'0 190 and you spend 10-20 years of your life at 260, everything is going to wear down a lot quicker. Joints, organs, all of it. Those are facts.
