Probably feel guilty about spending time on a forum, too. Not to mention I’d get even better looking and I’d have to avoid even more women.





This is a serious life decision.

A serious life decision indeed. But then again, why do you want to shy away from women?

I spend 120hrs a week here.

I’m uncomfortable around the fairer sex.

Give up coffee?...lunacy. Not only is it NOT bad for you, it's so good and healthful it can be considered a form of medicine.

I Irish mine up to make it lucky.

Life is good though.

I always imagined you as a older Marine that loves his morning coffee and probably enjoys Bourbon and Scotch.

I used to drink black coffee by the gallon and plenty of scotch, bourbon, beer, wine, vodka, and whatever was available, but there comes a time in life when we must dial back some our excesses and that time came for me 20-30 years ago.

I am an old Marine, though.

It’s a mind set with SEALS and other tier 1 special operations forces. Those guys put everything in to anything they’re doing. Granted that being said they also have for the most part incredible self control. You can’t get on a team if you’ve got bad credit. You want to change something in your life go hard at it. But don’t give up the things you like because then you’ll just die miserably.

Dad bods are in right now. Embrace it and enjoy yourself. That’s how I live my life and I used to be the strongest guy any one I knew knew.

Being jacked is over rated. Meal prep, gym x2 daily, supplements and just general thinking about what you need to do to maintain is a chore. If you’ve got a family, a full time job that doesn’t pay you to work out and generally enjoy being able to kick back trying to get hard and jacked is not a good avenue to go down.

Yes, I imagine many of the latter group you mention prefer to not be jacked, but rather in great shape and in a less obvious fashion but ultimately really depends on mission set. T2 SEALS and Battalion though imo at least much more likely to be jacked though it does seem decathlete type fitness is most common nowadays in general. Different mission sets though so certainly can vary. Mission, Men, and Me a great book if you have interest in the area of the latter you mention. Does a good job of bringing comedy in, and presenting in a more relatable way than the old Dick Marcinko books, which are still interesting though. Need to be exceptional athletes and with extremely above average intelligence imo make it more difficult than making pro sports. I think (or should say know) the bad credit has most to do with not having anyone that could potentially be financially blackmailed. Used to love The Unit on CBS....the newer show ST6 is great, but imo not quite up to the old Eric Haney consulted show that the Unit was. That latter show, seemed about as accurate as you can get in Hollywood. One common trait though is a love for Rolex divers

Sadly that's true, it was probably the all fish diet.
