Help me rescue my Insulina. Member 5366, 1090 posts	As a 'bigger' guy at about 136kg I hate not been able to find clothes I like anywhere on the high street. I can go round an entire shopping outlet and find nothing in my size but the odd s**tty reject that no-one wants. I have to buy XXL-XXXL gear that no-one ever has, and so I spend the majority of my life wearing gym gear, which is fine as I workout most days, however now and again I do like to go out with the missus and perhaps make more of an effort, but can I hell ever find anything remotely smart to wear. It's not the shops fault, they cater for an audience and stock what sells. I'm well aware I could lose a load of size and weight and fit into 'normal' 'average' clothes but I don't want to. I enjoy been big and lifting heavy things and to be fair I hate feeling 'normal' and just blending in. I just wish I could be big AND find decent clothes to fit me! What do you dislike about living the life you do?

what is everyone's fran time? Member 3986, 10443 posts SQ 340, BP 200, DL 400 940.0 kgs @ 129kgs Eq	Cooling down can be tricky, forcing down food when your full is s**t, clothes are kinda annoying, calf burn when walking up a long hill, one I noticed last week is that I can't fit in my bath anymore.

To you maybe.. but my weight and size is a direct result of what I do which is lift and eat plenty, I'm sure there are many 'overweight' people on this forum. I know there's also a lot of people a lot lighter and a lot stronger than me, yourself perhaps included, but everybody is different. Some have the self discipline to eat clean and make 'lean gains' some are genetically gifted, some are hardgainers, some will be pumped full of vitamin T and others like myself don't care that much about having a 'strongman shelf' because strength is all that is important to them. Does my humble 240 deadlift warrant been a few stone overweight? To some no, it doesn't but I don't care all that much what other people think. I do what I do and I enjoy it. I just struggle to find clothes as a result. Everyone's 'strongman lifestyle' is different, I was asking what people dislike about theirs.

If you don't give a s**t what anyone thinks and all the matters is strength Take some test, tren and dbol and you'll deadlift 340 in 8 weeks
