fat guys who think their "big"

**drake25** · 04-06-2012, 09:55 PM

im sorry but i noticed this and cant hold my tongue, i notice a lot of this in school and at the gym, but ive seen alot of it on this forum as well.

why is it that these guys who say their "thick" or "big" when in reality they are fat. you know the guys who look like the typical powerlifter.. i mean yeah some of these guys have a lot of muscle underneath the high percentage of blubber but nevertheless the fat is still there..

i have this buddy of mine who is like this and he still tries bulking! and he really thinks he is big...

whats the logic here maybe im missing something. is that they feel big in a t-shirt so their mind tells them they are big? idk

**gearbox** · 04-06-2012, 10:01 PM

well you starting talking about two different things.
1. fat guys who think they are big
2. power lifters
which one are you talking about?

most fat guys will never take off their shirts, cos their abs are just one big pack, instead of six

**DeadlyD** · 04-06-2012, 10:12 PM

There's a huge difference between a fat guy, and a powerlifters build! Not every one wants to be shredded! Some guys train fir strength not definition.

**auswest** · 04-06-2012, 10:42 PM

Nothing wrong with big solid powerlifter physique. Buy I know what you mean by fat guys. The ones that look like they live at Maccas and never walked let alone stepped into the gym yet cuz they are big they think they are on the good side of big.. Jokes on them really,

But I'm not sure what pisses me off more, those guys. Or the skinny kids with no bf but no muscle either that think there huge and has two Of his similar looking mates spotting him with a weight that literally takes all 3 of them from the first rep.
But who cares, once again the jokes on them

Lastly though it all comes down to being happy with yourself, there is no right or wrong everything comes down to own preference

Ha! I have several co-workers and gym friends that are just plain fat and think they are the sh**. They're always saying, "I don't lift or ever been in the gym and my arms are bigger than yours" co-workers, fellow gym guys say, "I have only been lifting a few months and I'm already bigger than you". I usually respond with fat doesn't count. Lol. I'm not a small guy and it gets really annoying when they say that stuff.

Aus makes a good point on skinny high school kids. They're skinny and mistake it with being lean and ripped. My brother told me this a few weeks. Skinny kids with abs are like fat chicks with huge boobs. They don't have to do anything to get them.

Well, at least I know I'm fat! But I'm cutting like a mofo, so that's changing.

**ZZ13** · 04-07-2012, 07:56 AM

Myself I know I'm not a well defined guy either, but I'm in the gym just about everyday with more of a short strongman build but I'd still not say that I was a BIG guy :P
I do get a kick out of lining up beside some of these guys that have a well defined build, (you know the guy that all the little women check out as they go by) and then putting them to shame by out lifting them LOL
And every once and awhile you see those young guys who think they're cut and the greatest thing on earth just because they have no % BF trying to go BIG with to much weight like auswest was saying and I have to step in and say something before they hurt themselves or each other, and I'm generally one of those quiet guys who say very little if anything at the gym...

Try to avoid exchanging punches and ground wresting with said fat guys who think they are big. Instead, slap'em in the tit and dance around until they are punched out then pee on their head and ask them how big they are now. I don't know why I relate everything to brawling...

Haha ya but you better not let em get hold of you!!!

**awms** · 04-07-2012, 11:38 AM

I almost got in a fight with one of these guys the other day haha this fat guy at the bar pushes my budy and I stepped in and told him to back off and he starts talking about how big he is (he was like 250lbs but pure fat) and how hes bigger than me ect ect....so I took my coat off and I think he was shocked to see how big I really was lol I have a small frame but in a t-shirt I look very large! he backed down soon after.

You want to beat a fat guy in a fight? Make him move around and swing at you....you will have to take a couple big shots but cover your face and let him wear him self down...then you pounce lol

**Times Roman** · 04-07-2012, 11:40 AM

yer not really fat til yer chubby disappears below the BF Goodrich!

**doxmaster** · 04-07-2012, 02:57 PM

I had a friend who was a landwhale and he went on vacation with me and my family and I worked out the whole vacation and this fat fvck whenever I was about to go work out would brag how big his arms were and talk about how big his legs were and how hes stronger than me which he wasnt I had a little over 16 inch arms at the time and anytiem I would even stretch or flex a little he would mock me and then tell me 17 and a half bitch . The kid was 5'7"
295 needless to say screw that kid I don't even associate with fatties anymore at all I'm disgusted at my own family who redicule me because I work out and am in shape .

FVCK ALL SKINNIES AND FATTIES WHO THINK THEY'RE HOT SHIT

Cartman is ripped bro!!!

**Gaspari1255** · 04-07-2012, 03:07 PM

My problem is people who think they are something that they are not. Fat guys thinking their big is a good example. Not so attractive girls who swear they're sexy is even more annoying. Any Italian who wears hair gel who think's he's a wise guy is annoying. Hood rats with their pants sagging down their ass who swear that they're hard or gangsta is another pet peeve. Just be YOU. SKINNY guys who are 8%bf at 140lbs thinking they're jacked up may be top of the list. I bet Anne Frank and others involved in the Holocaust were ripped up and shredded too..

Funny how none of them had "glandular problems" and were fat no matter what...

**oscarjones** · 04-07-2012, 03:27 PM

Fat guys who think they're big... or big bodybuilders in off season who are fat?

I think the OP is referring to the fat ****s who lift like 1-2x a week with 21" arms of FAT. I love when they roll their sleeves up to show of their pipes. I remember seeing one obese dbag wearing a shirt that said "It ain't the gentics.....it's the hard work." What hard work? Rolling the window down at the drive through of McDonalds?

**spywizard** · 04-07-2012, 03:46 PM

i've trained with "fat/big" guys that think they are strong, after i show them that they aren't as strong as a guy that weighs 150 lbs less, what i have found that if they do train they can get some strength, but they seldom keep it..

question,,,, why does it bother you??

I mean.... really??

Same, doesn't bother me of your big or small, I just don't like lazy.

I know it's a bb forum but what about fighters who are 120-150 and ripped? Some of you are stuck in your bigger is better ways. What about Bruce lee? Tiny but a beast.

Reminds me of one of the first UFC matches back in the day... When there was no weight class or time limit. Just no biting or eye gouging. Some little guy, maybe Gracie, was fighting some giant sumo looking guy. Little guy would kick sumo in thigh and sumo wouldn't even feel it. That is until about 1000 kicks to the thigh over 15 minutes or so. Pretty soon sumo couldn't even stand and got choked out. Some of those little ripped dudes are not to be messed with!

**kmdietri** · 04-07-2012, 04:59 PM

Agreed, pretty much anyone who thinks they're something they're not.

I've seen some tiny 140lbs dude whoop the shit out of some big dude before. Muscle doesn't necessarily make the fighter.

OP.......Why don't you post some pics of yourself.

**Nooomoto** · 04-09-2012, 12:06 PM

I'm a really strong fat guy!

Seriously though, I've been powerlifting for about 6 years and playing rugby for 8 months/per year for 5 years now. People always think I'm fat...then they touch me and are like "whoa man you're solid!"...like yeah no shit dude, and you're a small weakling *****.

Honestly...who cares? If it bothers you so much go talk to someone else. No need to get angry about it. Maybe it's just me and I'm getting old, but things like that seem so superficial and trivial lately, not at all pertinent to anything that should be occupying your (my) life.

**alexISthrowed** · 04-09-2012, 12:45 PM

I think that's the guy that made syntherol. He was like 400lbs and died of a brain aneurism.

**JP-MAN** · 04-09-2012, 03:10 PM

hahaha I shake my head at the skinny kids too.

But what's going hardcore to much? When I hit the gym I wanna get in, get my sweat on, and GTFO. End of story.

**JP-MAN** · 04-09-2012, 04:10 PM

the guys who get out of their car wearing there weight belts, gloves, elbow and knee supports, sweatbands...
yeah, those guys

They always seem to be the ones yelling and dropping their weights too. So hardcore they expend every ounce of energy on that last rep...no way they can just put them down. Saving energy for putting the weights down is for sissies.

or the guys using heavy weight on the BB but going down 1/10 of the way and screaming like a woman giving birth during their "rep".

**Standby** · 04-09-2012, 06:51 PM

us fat guys are big on the inside. get it right

**JAB1** · 04-10-2012, 02:30 PM

I have a lot of biker friends that fit that mold. For some reason in the biker world the fatter they are, the tougher the think they are. LOL im the small muscle guy on a sport bike riding with a bunch of over weight harley dudes. Im a stunt rider and fighter tho so I get a pass, lol
