Thoughts of the day: bodybuilding, fighting and distinct erratic personalities
One of the managers at work was like ‘Just because you’re big, doesn’t mean I can’t take you in a fight’, in a casual way, not a provocative threatening way, it was just general conversation. I wouldn’t consider myself big but I have been bodybuilding for the past four months. Anyway, what I found strange was in this time of bodybuilding, I never ever considered it as a means to get stronger for fighting/ self defence. I don’t believe in fighting (Unless it’s in a ring, I use to be a keen follower of boxing). Some people go to the gym to get big, to look intimidating, to not be picked on and that sort of thing but for me it’s always been to just look good and feel good about myself.
I’ve come across a few people like this in my life and they sort of bug me, people who when they’re in a good mood are incredibly relaxed and don’t care about anything, but when they’re tired or in a bad mood they’re a completely different person. The things that they normally wouldn’t care about they get really frustrated or annoyed with. The problem with this is sometimes its hard to tell what mood that certain person is in. Like for example if they’re angry, you can’t tell if they’re joking or being serious. I hate that.
