I was gonna post the typical flexing pic but instead I'll post this motivation! I just got back from the gym and it was phenomenal! Got a sweet sweet biceps pump and my triceps are already burning! Looking around the pit there were several young guys curling 10 or 15 pound dumbbells trying to blend into the background. You know the type (you may be that type)- they're skinny, no mass, just starting their workout program and know just enough to be dangerous in the gym. They watch from afar and try to mimic what the big guys are doing. I remember being that kid.... So I went over to 'em, told them to keep it up and that I thought they were doing a great job. They were pretty receptive and seemed to relax quite a bit after that. Now, I ain't telling this story to brag. On the contrary, I'm telling it to remind those of you who are members of "the faithful" to take a moment and reassure someone. Remember what it was like to be intimidated? Don't be that asshole. Be the friendly asshole! Now kick ass! I'm gonna hydrate for tomorrow morning's Big Red cardio session!
