    To be strong can possibly be a sin, depends on the reasons for becoming strong I guess. If you want to become strong to impress other people and/or to raise your status in society then it's a sin.
    You are 100% right, and I agree with you. It depends on ones motives.

    Yes, but I think the majority of bodybuilders have (at least some) sinful motives, including me. I think it's hard/next-to-impossible to be sinless and body build.

    Generally bodybuilding starts off with envy (envy to be someone else), and then to achieve your goal you have to eat excessively (gluttony/greed), once you have reached a certain desirable state you have pride (vanity) about your body.

    PS Not trying to start a flame, just saying what I think is true.

    It's impossible to be sinless in your entire life period.
