FFS, what kind of a jerk are you? Some millennial who thinks his sh*t don't stink? How are old are you? Are you my age? If you're even close to my age, can you put your money where your mouth is?

It's like this punk: So many disgruntled millennials complain these days about the aging boomers being so unhealthy not excercising & taking care themselves. They whine & complain that these sickly boomers are straining the medical system costing tremendous amounts of money to treat & take care of them, and so on. So, when you have boomers like me in better shape than most men half my age, then yes we should be put on a pedestal and used as an example.

What cracks me about this is if I posted this comment on the Grandmaster's thread here, there would be no negative response like you've given. Only positive remarks because my fellow fitness enthusiast boomers know what the heck I'm talking about (I only posted this comment here because of the nature of this thread).

I occasionally get into some debates with some of these young hotshot bodybuilders easily half my age at the gym I work out at who harass me because of my age (I was a competitive bodybuilder in the 1980's winning some regional titles and I still have decent physique for my age without using TRT).

I look them straight in the eye & tell them let's see what you will look like when you get my age. Will you even be still working out? Will you be fat, unhealthy, sickly - in & out of the med system? Not surprisingly, they have no answer & walk away. Lol. And I'm not afraid of calling those out who are using gear (i.e., roids, T, SARMS, etc.). Now those guys definitely walk away in disgrace - I have absolutely no respect for them. Lol.

Haha, you really do seem to be somebody who just doesn't feel right about the world unless he's getting non-stop positive feedback. One of the guys I run with sometimes is like you (I'm in my 50s, and he's in his 60s) and he always tells everybody what his latest workout was, and then finishes his tale with "...not bad for a guy my age!" Like he's practically forcing us to say, yes, that's great for a guy your age...you're incredible!

I mean, can't you just work out because you like it and it's good for you? Come to think of it, though, that is another thing that boomers are known for - me, me, me, notice me please please please...hey guys, I won regional body-building titles several decades ago - notice me! ADMIRE ME!!

Btw, that conversation you had with those young whippersnapper bodybuilders ("I look them straight in the eye & tell them let's see what you will look like when you get my age. Will you even be still working out? Will you be fat, unhealthy, sickly - in & out of the med system? Not surprisingly, they have no answer & walk away")...that conversation never took place! Or, if you did say that to them and they truly didn't answer you, and just walked away, it's because they didn't hear you in the first place, because they weren't even paying attention to you.

Seriously, you've been alive for 61 years and and you're still stuck in the stage where you insist on people admiring you and reverenting you just because you exercise?

Considering your age, you've just proved you're a pathetic, narcissistic insecure jerk. Just another boomer with fake tan I guess.
