The iron wills n golden circles..
Blood, sweat, tears n... barf. Yeah that's rite. Not a pretty sight when all 4 of them came from some1 in a family oriented gym. Not when u are there to just reinstill that feeble sense of manhood week in and week out, or tell urself u can still lift a few plates more, squeeze in a couple more reps, run that extra mile on the treadmill and all the while, playing 'the eye of the tiger' in that dome.. No.. that's not ur average, friendly, family oriented gym user..
Been there, day in and day out... 6 months in the running.. Seen determined souls sweating their ass off in the pursuit of that 'perfect' physique. Seen those same determined souls determined not to appear there again.. Not really but just slowly and surely vanishing altogether. I try not to be 1 of them, again. So far, so good. Can't really remember when i was ever in a fit and healthy condition. Oh yeah, that was non-existent. Also tired of hearing the same voices every year, commenting about the weight i put on. Even when some of them are 'bigger' than me. F''' that, fatter than me. Yes, that's a 4-letter word. Fat.
Each time i'm there, there will always be a certain group of guys that's just a tad different from the rest. Not just because of their already impressive physique, but the air around them.. I've been there long enough to see that these dudes had built an obvious reputation in that family oriented gym. Eyes will always follow with awe, every work-outs, every sets and every reps. Now these are to me, regulars folks with the same passion as the next jack and joes in there. But what set them apart is that not so regular dedication. I mean you can just see it in their faces. Even had a tag for them. The Elites. Every1 thought they're a bunch of muscle-headed stuck ups. Was 1 of them til now. Kind of realised that it was'nt about being a notch above the rest, but the focus in them that shuts everything else out and just press on to add on. In there. Less talk. More focus. Higher intensity. Significant results. Downside? Lesser or nil friends. Who cares. Not really a singles bar ain't it?
6 months and counting. Can't wait to hear what the voices will say soon.
Voices: Hey man, you put on more... muscles??...
Me: Yeah.. U?
