How big and lean to rock the Tanktops

[noname103]

Ok quick question at what point is a tank top acceptable gym attire? How much size and what BF is needed to not look a fool?

 

[Jarconis]

plz dont be that guy

 

[tomsawyer]

Wife-beater type T-tops...no matter how big, one will always be a douche bag. A regualar T-top...still a bit cliche..especially if there are tribal tattoos, back-acne from juice..

Gym attire? a tank is always acceptable. Now if you wear a tank to a club? That's pretty lame. In the gym though, tanks are fine. Rather than a tank though I usually just rip the sleeves off an old big t shirt.

LOL... I know it's your thread and your question, but just what the hell is going on in your avatar? Are you the trainer or the idiot standing on the ball? Please tell me you found that pic as a joke. That dude is one slip away from blowing out both his knees, breaking his back, and probably his neck!

At any rate, if that's you on the ball, save the photo for insurance purposes when you sue the trainer!

LMFAO!!!! (OUCH) You have just said everything I was thinking.

Now in answer to your question..................20" arms.....52" chest and veins everywhere. A back you could land a jumbo on (I prefer the A380 myself) and an attitude that is as nice as can be!! C'mon, you can't be serious with this question. A tank top is acceptable no matter what body type! In the gym that is.

 

[noname103]

OldFella those are high standards. How does one properly measure chest? Are those proper proportions? I would think a 52 inch chest would have bigger arms. This person we have created is probably 250lbs as well. Is that the size minimum? Does it depend on how big the rest of the gym members are that day? Do you leave on your sweater when someone your size or bigger trains? Do you slowly shed layers as you start to pump up? Do you then spot challenge yourself to mandatory shots as you walk to the water cooler? Do you use the bottom of the tank to wipe the sweat from your forehead as you flex your abs so hard you get a hernia when a girl walks by? Do you shake your arms as they slowly float up sideways creating severe ILS? Are you ready for the tanktop? I am getting a fanny pack and some otomix boots bitches.

Yes. And along with that we can discuss advanced knee-replacement, advanced vertebrae fusion, and those advanced wheelchairs you guide with your mouth. We also can have a field day with advanced liability and advanced consent forms and waivers.

Good to know....

When you saw it, did it make you want to go put on your knee wraps, even though you weren't even at the gym?

Made me want to duck and cover. I wouldn't want to be within 20 feet of that. The guy goes, who knows where that barbell is headed.

Its fine to show off your hard work, but don't be one of those persons who wears a tank top to the gym with no coat when its 30 degree out in the winter. At least wear a sweat shirt get a little sweat going then take off the sweat shirt.


Personally I only wear tanks on the hottest days of the summer. Thats me though.

OR DON'T BE WHAT I SEEN THE OTHER DAY. A 19 YEAROLD WITH 15INCH ARMS WITH A TANK TOP WALKING AROUND THE MALL AND NO COAT WITH A SCARF AROUND HIS NECK AND A BEANIE CAP.

 

[shoestring]

Is this a joke or something? Were what ever you want to the gym (as long as it is clean). Whats wrong with a wife beater? Who cares? If someone doesn't like what you wear to the gym tell em to suck your ba... !!

My whole point was, who cares? I wear a tank top every day in the gym. I do not need to check myself in the mirror, I could care less and in fact welcome anyone bigger than myself in my gym and would gladly stand next to them for a photo. I use a towel to wipe the sweat from my forehead and I don't squat on a ball. It does not matter how big or small you are if you are in the gym trying to improve. We are all there for the same reasons. As for being a trend setter........I would rather get down to some hard core training and let that set the trend. I don't need ottomix boots for that. I'm happy with my Nike cross trainers.

I wear KEDS to the gym with Argyle Socks.
