What's the point of getting all buff if you also get impotent?!!!!!

There have always been really massive, really strong guys, think the Olympic super-heavyweights who weighed like 300lbs or more. Why didn't women swoon over them? Nobody, male or female, thought they had attractive physiques and attractive physiques were not what they were after in terms of their training.

The smaller Olympic lifters looked athletic, but past a certain weight and certainly regarding the heaviest, they simply looked fat.

Bodybuilders have gotten so big that they are approaching the super-heavyweight image, bulky, bloated, and fat looking. Visually I see no real difference between them and just a really big, fat person.

If you think of a muscle car, they are sleek and curvy and fast looking, not really big like a Mac truck.

The most powerful looking physique to me is one where it looks like a guy can run as well as lift, he is the fast muscle car, not the big, bloated Mac truck.

I train with weights and weigh 240-260 lbs. Personally I don't really enjoy being this big, it's not all it's cracked up to be. There are some things you simply can't do as well when you are this big. I would like to trim down to about 210-220, I dread the thought of weighing 300 lbs one day.

I read a great article about a bodybuilder who had gotten so big that people started calling him " moose ". his father asked him what had happened to his his head, it looked round like a bowling ball. He saw a guy at his gym who weighed a whole lot less than him, with about half his strength, but who had a really good proportional physique. People he found out referred to this much smaller guy as a real " Adonis ".

It was then he decided he would much rather be the " Adonis " than the " moose ".

Bodybuilding has gone from the Adonis idea to the moose idea.

Is it a 100% sure thing you get impotent?

I personally don't care for body building. I appreciate muscles on people where they are functional, like martial artists and boxers. If those muscles can physically do something, especially self defense, that's impressive. But a lot of these body builders don't have functionality other than lifting weight.

Plus after a certain age, body building makes you look older as you have less body fat and the skin shows its age. Athletic women over 35 look older than women who don't exercise.

I guess it's all about balance, not over doing things. Don't be fat, don't be too skinny, don't be too muscular.

Watch a documentary called "Bigger, stronger, faster" if you want to know the motivations of people doing steroids. The doc deals with this issue. It's a great movie - well worth the watch.

If you want a simple answer - vanity and the need to be special, unique.
