You might be a powerlifter if.....

You have trouble counting past 5.

You think the wonder bra is a bench press aid.

You can multiply by 45 from memory.

Your doctor asks you for a blood sample and you show him your shins.

You check depth while sitting on the toilet.

You have more polyester in your gym bag then the whole crew at McDonalds.

Your closet looks like a Chuck Taylor warehouse.

It takes 5 minutes for your spirit to re-enter you after your last set of deadlifts.

You just spent 40 hours figuring out the next 16 weeks of your workouts, the exact weight, percentages, sets and reps, only to realize later you forgot abs and calves.

It takes you 20 minutes to get from your bed to the shower in the morning, and they are in the same room.

You can sqaut 800, bench 600 and deadlift 700, yet you can't manage to take the garbage out to the curb without feeling like you just pulled something.

You consider cardio as putting on your squat suit.


(This forum doesn't get much action, thought I would add a little humor for those who get it.)

hey sonny, lets hear them......

You may be a bodybuilder if:

You eat more tuna than your cat.

You warm up at least 15 minutes before sex.

You think the four basic food groups are casein, whey, albumin and creatine.

You shave your legs before a hot date…and you’re a guy.

You shave your back before a hot date…and you’re a woman.

You have a 32” waist but buy 42” pants hoping to get them past your quads.

You fix your hair between sets.

You stopped reading this list because it is time to eat again.

Your heart skips a beat every time you enter a pharmacy.

You are 5’8” and managed to push your weight past 300#, yet every time you look in the mirror you say,”I don’t understand why I can’t get any bigger.”

You did not understand the last one.

You have ever spotter your training partner and yelled, "one more baby-feel the burn", while doing wrist curls.

[garb]

lol nice.....ill try to think of some and post em up later, but its time to go eat ;)

[cavemuscle]

LOL!

Reminds me of Dave Tate's "It's good to be big" where he list the pro's and con's of being 5ft9 and and 300 lbs. Not for the faint of heart or weak of stomach.

I'll try to find it.

you might be a bodybuilder if you ask your friend if your butt looks to big before you walk on stage at the MR O that was a bad one lol

[jef2007]

you might be a power lifter if you got more hair on your neck then on top of your head lmao humoring myself i guesse

Resurrecting this old thread, had time on my hands

this was an article by Chad Aichs at EliteFTS http://www.elitefts.com/documents/huge.htm, and I quote...

Here it goes—the top 10 ways to know you are huge…

The huge can’t fit their big fat asses, big thighs, and massive shoulders in one airplane seat. They may be able to actually squish themselves in it, but they’re so sick of crushing their nuts and getting hit by every stupid SOB who walks down the aisle that they’re more than willing to buy two seats. While on the subject of squishing your nuts, huge guys are so sick of this that all of their manners have gone out the window. Even if they’re in a public place, they’ll reach down and rearrange their junk before they sit down to prevent this from happening again.
The huge definitely have to use a c-pap. If you don’t know what a c-pap is you’re at least 100 lbs away from being huge. If you know what it is but don’t have one, you’re at least 50 lbs away from being huge. The use of a c-pap is actually a badge of honor for the truly huge. This means that your neck has become so big that it collapses under it own weight at night.
The huge have to do morning stretches before the first dump of the day. This is so they don’t pull something when trying to wipe their own ass. They think the extender tool that the midgets use to wipe themselves is genius and are looking into getting one, only bigger.
The vehicle the huge drive is a truck, suburban, van, or something along those lines because this is all they can get in and out of somewhat easily. It’s also the only vehicle they can actually sit up straight in and they don’t have to lean toward the middle of the car because their shoulder is jammed into the door.
The huge have become true experts at using all the mirrors in their vehicles because they can barely turn their heads enough to see things on the side or behind them. They also avoid parking where they have a tight area to back out of. This could cause them to pull a muscle while straining to look around to be sure they don’t hit anything or a least cause a massive cramp.
When the huge walk into a bar, all the bouncers suddenly look like they got kicked in the nuts and their chests just deflate. Buddies of the huge always try to force them to walk into places first because they get off seeing everyone’s face when they see the huge freakiness walk in the door.
The huge can’t find a button-down shirt with a neck big enough to fully button without getting choked. In fact, if you can buy clothes at a regular store, you’re not huge. The huge have to buy clothes at one of those big and tall stores. Then they get pissed off every time because the makers of these clothes think all huge people are also fat. Just because I have a 60-inch chest does not mean I have an 80-inch belly, damn it.
Cell phones are such a pain in the ass for a huge guy. First off, there’s all those little buttons that my fat fingers have a hard time pushing without hitting other buttons. And where do you carry it? When I put it in my pocket, my big ass legs bump into everything, and the buttons get pushed making calls I don’t know about. Yes, I could lock the buttons, but then I have to push more buttons with my fat fingers to unlock them. I could use one of the clips, but every big guy knows that you will eventually bump into something and knock the phone off. Then you have to bend over and pick it up (we’ll cover that subject next). I think the worse thing is trying to hold the damn thing to your ear.

Here are my typical positions during a phone call—hold phone to left ear with left hand, move phone to right ear with right hand, move phone back to left ear with left hand and lean left elbow against something like a table or wall to help hold it to ear, move phone back to right ear with right hand and lean right elbow against something, move phone to left ear with right hand, move phone to right ear with left hand, move phone to left ear with right hand and lean right elbow on something like table to help, move phone to right ear with left hand and lean left elbow on something.

That’s just the first minute. It keeps repeating itself after that. I know you may be thinking just get one of those Bluetooth ear pieces, but those are gay and I would have to kick my own ass if I used one of them.
A huge person won’t bend over to pick up change. It is way too difficult to get those coins off the ground, and the huge may pass out trying to get them. They will, however, risk bending over to pick up a dollar. This is only because they’re easier to pick up, and almost every fast food joint now has a dollar menu. That dollar will buy more to eat on their next trip to one of those fast food places than the change. Tying shoes is also a very difficult task for the truly huge person. I have solved this by having children tie them for me. They seem to enjoy it (I have no idea why), and they need the practice anyway.
The absolute easiest way to tell if you’re truly huge is by taking a trip to your local zoo. Head to the gorilla exhibit. Watch the gorillas as you walk in. There are two reactions you can get from them that will mean that you are truly huge. The first one is that they will become very violent. They will start howling, jumping about, hitting the glass, and throwing thing around. This will be because they have seen you and they are excited that fellow primate has escaped. They think you are coming back to help get them out and then destroy the Statue of Liberty. The second reaction would be if all the gorillas come up to the glass and stare at you with a very confused look. This would be because they are wondering how you got out and why you didn’t bring them with you. Either reaction would let you know you are huge, the only difference is how aggressive those particular gorillas are.
