Forgive the long post, but as the year dwindles down - I thought it would be good to have some perspective. Brokong is being the saddened. I've come across a few posts on here where people are having medical issues, and what not. First, and foremost I hope everyone comes out the other side and rises up like a phoenix! Stay strong brolos!. But to the point. I was never under the impression that bodybuilding was healthy? I remember a few years ago watching this video, and It was Jay Cutler having an interview, and he's walking up some stairs while talking. He basically starts sweating profusely, and straight loses his breath. I mean he seriously can't finish the sentence. This guy MAYBE went up about a flight and a half of stairs, and he's not even 35 yet....anyway - the point I'm trying to make is that when man involves himself in a GOAL ORIENTED endeavor- It's not necessarily about whether its good for you or not. It's about something you want- something you are trying to accomplish, and it's a selfish, vain endeavor-Which is the way it's always been. Do boxers not understand that they may suffer brain damage? Do we think that the guys in the Tour De France who ride a bike 120 miles a day FOR A MONTH in oxygen deprived environments think that it's good for them? Do astronauts sit back and really think to themselves that what they are doing is totally logical? What about the test pilots who died one, after one trying to break the sound barrier? Sooner or later we all have to make decisions based on what we are trying to accomplish in this world....and we have to live with those decisions. If you don't know what you want...Figure it out, and make sure you're prepared for everything that comes along with it because it WILL change your life in one way or another. Ok- I'm off to say some prayers..
P.S. The 350lb lard ass sitting at McDonalds manhandling a Big Mac isn't thinking about how much fatter he can get....I'm certain that isn't his goal...but I could be wrong- so we at least have that.
