RE: Work out update: I finally got my own home gym

in Sports Talk Social9 months ago

Hahaha this is a great comment and I think you are right about why men tend to focus more on their upper body and women on their lower body :D But I actually wear shorts very often, especially in summer but sometimes also in spring and in autumn when it´s warm enough. Oh and when we live in the tropics or subtropics, I wear shorts all year round, I don´t like pants anyway :D

Well, I put on a lot of weight in the last couple of years. Both muscles and fat, of course :D I´m currently at some 90 kg for my not so tall height of 177 cm. That´s not comfortable for jogging anymore. But as long as there is more muscles than fat, I´m ok with that :) I was super skinny when I was younger so I enjoy being big and strong now :) Glad to hear that you managed to put on some weight too, superheroes need muscles to be able to save the world! :D

Sort:  

Hahaha, it's true, women take care of their butts and legs and men of their abs and arms 🤷🏻‍♀️ it's how nature works hahaha.

Oh, that means I'm a little taller than you 🤏🏻 hehehe. Well, yes, I think 90 kgs is really heavy for your height

Yes of course, we need muscles to fight for justice and eliminate the scum of the world 👊🏻 although the most important thing is cunning and intelligence 😼, always 😉

Oh you are taller than that? Then you must be considered a very tall woman in Venezuela :) I mean here in my country, people of my height are considered small because the Czechs are one of the tallest nations in the world (many of my friends here are around 190 cm or even taller) but I remember that in Latin America, I felt quite tall :D

Well, the proportion between height and weight can be misleading sometimes. Bodybuilders of my height, for example, often weigh 120 or even 130 kg. In fact, muscles are 20% denser (=heavier) than fat. That´s why muscular people are heavy. But such extremes are not natural, neither healthy of course ;)

Hahaha, yeah, I am 1.80 cms tall, I often hear people saying to me "you are very tall" hahaha 🤷🏻‍♀️ and yes, sometimes I feel like a giant when I walk in the streets 😂😂, many friends and family have even told me that I should have been a model or participated in the Miss Venezuela contest 🤭 but I have never liked beauty contests. I also felt like a giant when I went to Greece some years ago,
everyone was so short 🤭🤭🤭🤷🏻‍♀️. You're right, the people of eastern europe are tall, I didn't know that Czechs were between the most taller, I think that the tallest people are from the Netherlands, Serbia and Croatia.

Muscles aren't only denser than fat, they also need a lot of food. In fact, in cases of survival, the most muscular people are the ones who can tolerate hunger the least because the muscles ask them a lot of food. On the other hand, the thinnest people are the ones who best manage to resist extreme cases when there is nothing to eat. I learned that in a program called Naked Survival, the majority of those who arrive with their tremendous muscular bodies don't last even five days 😬🤣🤣 while the skinny ones who look like they're going to be blown away by the breeze last until the end 😃👊🏻😉 hehehe.

Well, if you are 1.8 cm tall, than you are not taller than your insect friends that you take pictures of but joking aside, even with 180 cm, nobody would call you a giant here in my country, a lot of local girls and women are this tall or even taller so we are used to it :) But yeah, the tallest nation in the world are the Dutch, they are really big. But when it comes to individual ethnicities, the Maasai People may be the tallest. Their average height is more than 190 cm. I met some Maasai in Tanzania and they really were very tall. Thin but tall.

Good point about being muscular. It takes a lot of food to nurture the muscles so the big muscular guys usually suffer the most in the survival shows where there is not much food :D

Ooops! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🤦🏻‍♀️ well, maybe that's my secret to take good insect photos hahaha, become smaller than them 🤭🤭🤭
I was joking, of course I'm not a giant, at least I'm going to live with the pygmies 😂😂😂
Well, actually, I don't care if in your country you're not tall with a 1.80 mts because I don't live there and I'm not planning to move there either 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 so I will enjoy being a "giraffe" here in South America, in Greece and in many more countries 😁🤭🤭😎 I will keep away from the Maasai, the Dutch, the Serbs, the Croats and the Czech hahaha.

Yeah, you know what they say about a lot of huge muscles in a body 🙄💉💊🤯

Have a great week my friend 😺🤘🏻🤗

Love your humor and life attitude :) Cheers from the Land of the Giants! :D

😁😸 hehehe, thank you very much my friend what a lovely comment 🤗. Well, you know, that quality of good humor and happy attitude undoubtedly comes from my Venezuelan side 💃🏻🌻 because Greeks have bad characters hahaha 😬🤣🤣🤣🤷🏻‍♀️.

😂😂🤷🏻‍♀️ Greetings to my giant distant relatives 🤭🤭🤭💃🏻
