Hi Folks, Ya know, I always find it funny when the pros talk about all the support they get from family and friends. Don't get me wrong, I know my family loves me but they don't get my passion for the sport at all. And my friends don't train so they just kind of tolerate it. Guess I need to get some new friends! Not that I need support but once and a while it would be nice to be able to talk about training with friends and not have them look at me like I am from Mars. You folks get a lot of support?     | ||

I know exactly what your talking about bro! Its a very good point I hang out at school with guys that lift and don't lift so their is a nice balance. But when I go home for the summer and chill with my friends and I am all jacked and pumped up and only one bud lifts with me people can't understand. They are "normal people" we devoted our lifestyle to lifting and its hard for the "normal people" to realize! Mass Monster | ||

I've been into for 3 years now. I live with two personal trainers/bodybuilders and pretty much everyone I hang out with is into it. I really don't associate with many people from "before", except family of course. A lot of my older friends make fun of me being on a diet or watching what I eat or whatever, probably because they know they could never have the dedication and discipline that I do...They don't get anywhere near as much booty either.  My mom helps me prepare meals when I go over there on the weekends and my family doesn't make fun or give me shit or anything like that. My younger sisters think it's pretty cool...so do their friends. They all tell my sisters how hot I am. My sisters don't like that part. LOL. ------------------ Visit my website at http://profiles.elitefitness.com for all kinds of A.S. info.

I work with a bunch of geek engineers (I'm an engineering manager) who have never even driven by a gym.... let-alone go inside one. Only one of them ever played a competitive sport (and that was tennis). The all think I'm a freak and I remind them of the bullies that beat them up as a kid. Sometimes I worry about my job security because I think that they resent me for my physical strength.... so I work my ass off so long that I only have time to spend a couple of hours with my family and go to the gym at the end of the day...... So these geeks are my only friends @$#@ My wife gives me the shots..... so I guess she is pretty supportive. | ||

Yeah, support would be nice. My family always tries to feed me, which is nice except when I'm dieting for a show and then it's all "Hey want some pasta? We're on weight watchers and it's only 5 points" and then I'm like "Do you fucking get it? No fucking carbs, goddammit!" And friends, shit! Support from them is minimal. They all love the body but they're always trying to get me to drink and do drugs and eat shitty. I need some bodybuilder friends. Real ones. Not the ones on this board, though I thank you all for the great support and friendship and comraderie. | ||

I'm around people that don't know the difference between a carb and a protein. Most of the people around me think that steroids is only one product, and that your kidney fall out of your ass if you take'em. I have to hide adipo pills from my GF, and she gives me shit about protein powder. It's sad, but I know real bb from where I use to live, and I talk to them on phone and via email. |
