So a little back story first. I’ve always been someone who admires a persons physical strength. Over time I’ve learned how to judge whether a person is actually strong, or if they just look strong because they have tons of muscle. Because I’ve worked with huge muscly guys that can’t keep up with a 50+ year old woman picking bales. Granted not everyone fits this stereotype, I know some guys that are both but those are the minority. Anyway I’ve come to appreciate skinny, toned muscle.

Now my best friend, hates how he looks because he is skinny. But he can pick me up without blinking an eye, and toss me over his shoulder. We can be climbing onto a roof and he can pull me to the top with minimal effort. Dead lift a flopy 200lb+ calf and barely sweat. So he’s strong! But he doesn’t see any of that he just sees how skinny he is, and hates it. Now he is extremely toned, and everything on him is steel cord. But he’d rather have great big, body builder muscles, and it kills me that he doesn’t see his accomplishments instead only sees what he is thiks are faults.

Sorry I just needed to get that off my chest.
