    Honoring the 7th Commandment

    Brothers, With so much talk about increased sex drive when test levels increase I think we are forgetting about the big picture.
    Does a guy throw away everything that is morally right because he has goals to increase his physique?

    Bodybuilders get accused of being selfish as it is, why can't we be disciplined in other area's of our lives like we are with our training and diet?
    What about God, family, and country?
    Just because we have ambitions and dreams do we ignore our other oaths?
    We can still honor our commitments before the Lord and with our wives.

    Have we become so egotistical that we will throw away all the virtuous, time-proven institutions, all stable foundations, all for muscle and strength gain?
    What about our children? Do we want to trash our families so we can have nice in shape bodies?
    Not me!

    I have been married to one wife for 33 years and we have 3 grown children and I have never cheated on my wife.
    We must be careful when we are too self -focused because we are not only ripping muscle tissues but we are ripping the very fiber that holds our families,
    our culture and our nation together; apart.
    Lust, coveting, pride, selfishness are all destructive and we are supposed to be "builders"
    We can still honor our covenants and be in great shape.
    We can honor God's Commands and still be great in the gym and everywhere else.

    Brothers, if you are married, stay married, if you are single and not ready to make a "lifelong commitment" don't get married.
    We are not to be spoiled children, we are to be examples, disciplined athletes , the best at everything not just muscle and strength building.

    I do agree what the op is saying tho. If some one gets marrierd then they have made a covenant a commitment that they will be married with this person till they die. If you get divorced you have just proven to your self and the world that your word is not your bond.

    This being said i would never get married. Why would anyone really want to bang one person forever?

    And welcome op nice nAme
