I do not look good naked, but...

...my 2 pack looks great under a t-shirt. I'm gonna lose 20 lbs by May to get a 4 1/2 pack (I'm not willing to get skinny for all 6). I've been lifting for 6 years. I hate when my shirts get looser. I guess you have to spend more time naked to justify it, because you really do look worse with your clothes on. How do you guys get around this?.

Buy smaller shirts!



I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain...

Well, I no longer gain that much fat, I stay relatively lean year around.

I have the same prob, no one noticed my when I was cut up, but now that my arms stretch my sleeves, everyone thinks I look great, so I usually where tank tops in the summer instead of going shirtless. I keep saying I'm going to cut up again, but I'm not willing to loose too much strength.

I respect you all who don't care what others think. I used to be that way until 6 years ago, when I started going with this girl who had "artistic" photos of guys with good bodies on her bedroom wall. I realized I couldn't continue to look like David Spade and keep her, so I got busy. Now I'm burstin with a t-shirt on, but a bit of a doughboy at the pool. Glad there are others fighting this mental battle. I likely will get smaller shirts in May!

If your girl still keeps up "artistic photos" of guys on her wall... perhaps you need to get some "artistic photos" of girls for your wall

Theres a difference between motivational pics and pics that turn you on. If she surrounds herself by that kinda stuff, then she isnt being fair to you.

Meathead is a term the skinny use to slight those that are better physical specimens. Now, there are those that are idiots that are big... but by and large its a stereotype that the inferior use to deal with their inadequacies

Not to be an ass... But you are a girl. Did you ever think that maybe people tell you that you look good because they want to get into your pants? Maybe you are the one being fooled...

There's a difference between tight.. and fitted... fitted clothing looks very nice, it accents the shape of your body... I prefer to wear clothes that fit me...

Also, fashion would have something to say in this discussion... some people recognize it... some wouldn't if it smacked em up side their head...

Yeah, I hate tight close. Everything I wear is really baggy. Even when I work out, it is almost always in log pants and a baggy t-shirt or a long sleeve shirt.

I would wear baggy clothes, but I sweat like a mofo working out.
