How big were you when it became apparent "I'm Big"

[The Dude]

List your stats. It really has just started to hit me. I hear it at work, going out, my parents, people at the gym I even draw a crowd when I go in the grocery store in a tank top. My GF doesn't like to go in with me sometimes. I wear a 3X shirt and I'm 252lbs at 5'9. It really feels good, but it drives me even more. Never in my dreams did I think I could attain this. Its nice to really be happy with most of my development.... except for calves and chest. The calves can easily be fixed with IGF and syntherol. The chest thing... I'm doing some pre exhaist stuff and more IGF soon. The nice thing is I may not get a lot of positive attention at the bars, but the gym is a different story!!

Well I guess I was around 255lbs when i actualy thought to myself "damn your big" that was 10 years ago, and I guess the 2nd time I thought to myself "Damn what was I thinking when I thought i was big at 255lbs" was when I got to 290+lbs.

However I dont forsee me saying that to myself a 3rd time because theirs no way in hell I am gonna ballon up to over 300lbs because I was just so damn uncomforatble at 290lbs lol, I feel about right siting at about 270-280lbs and at that weight my face isnt fat and i am failry lean as i am 6'2.5 thats right i added the half an inch lol.

As for the attention, it all depends on the type it is i guess whether it bothers me or not! Ive been in line with wife at Movies and hear some dick head scream Steroids, ofcourse he was 20 people back and wouldnt own up to it when i turned around, its shit like that that makes me wana smash peoples face in. other then that im a fun loving guy,lol

at about 193lbs I have yet to experience such a feeling. For my frame, at about 5'7 (on a good day), I think when I hit about 210-215 I'll finally be able to take a step back and say, "damn I'm getting big."

ahhhh, one day...:upset:

 

[Pharm_Fed]

That's an interesting question. I think my view is distorted because I hang out on here with BBers so when I looked in the mirror, 205 doesn't look big to me. But my wife, family and friends tell me I'm huge. I guess it all depends on what you're comparing it to.

 

[Get_Swole]

Havent seen the day where i considered myself very big lol. My family etc.. tell me i shouldnt get any bigger but what do they know. Im thinking maybe next year at this time i will be able to look in the mirror and say comfortably im gettin pretty big. So far i cant say that yet though.

 

[CH3NO2]

I am just a little guy. 5'8" and I stay around 220lbs.

 

[nuknuk]

If I ever think to myself Im big, I just look at the muscle mags and it lets me know I aint shit. But it does drive me to get big one day.

 

[Chris250]

I felt big when I was in the 270ish at 5-10 1/2...

but I was really kinda fat...LOL !!! alot of muscle under that fat, but fat still

now I only get up to around 250-255lbs and dont feel that big anymore...I guess I should try to push my weight up some more to the 260 range and see if I can hold that hard

 

[Lightsout]

I can't wait till I can say damm I'm a BIG S.O.B AND I hope it will be when I'm around 270- 280. But for now I will have to live with being a toothpick at 6'3" and 250lbs !!!!!!!!!!

 

[Pharm_Fed]

You guys are all crazy. 250lbs is big. 270lb is huge. Even by bodybuilding standards there's no way 250lb is little, or a toothpick, lol.

 

[Crazymank]

I never felt huge, but i get told all the time that im huge.... i was 270-fat, 230 lean. I think presser has be by .5 inch...

 

[saudades]

It's funny how proportion can throw things out of whack. I know I'm larger than most men. I can see that in the mirror, and I'm 6' 210, but I don't feel big to myself, especially when I see other bb'ers or see their stats. Chuck says "toothpick at 6' 3" and 250 lbs," but that seems huge to me because it's 40 more pounds than I weigh--and yes, I know it's only the numbers I'm seeing. It's strange how even one inch of height can make such a difference. I can't even imagine what it would be like to be Presser's size. I'm hoping to get to 230 as my final goal since my bone structure is thinner, and that weight/size should look huge even to me.

 

[Crazymank]

a couple of our bouncers are 6'6'' +. These guys are over 320, but they dont look stacked cause they're just to damn tall.

 

[The Dude]

I wish I was 6' or over... that would be incredible. I think the taller guys just look so much better aesthetically. Its probably harder to gain at that height though.
And CH3N02, you are definately not a little guy! Your strength is outrageous!

 

[dakoteyah27]

I found out today. I had this guy come up to me and told me I was huge, and I told him thanks. He then said " No man, you're like, PRISON huge!" I laughed and he went about his business. I don't even know what that means. Does that mean I'm Ving Rhames big, from Con Air?

 

[saudades]

Lol, "prison huge?" You're pretty damn big then.

 

[dakoteyah27]

Just 250 + or -? Most you guys look bigger than myself. Plus I'm retaining ALOOOOOT of water, complete with a moon face.

 

[dreww]

i think about 270 for me will feel big. well, i say that now, lol.

big isnt the whole thing tho. there are quite a few guys bigger and stronger than me at my gym and work. but dont have that 'bodybuilde' look. like like exaggerated v taper, traps, and shoulders.

i look like a bodybuilder but still dont think im big.

 

[saudades]

^ ^ ^ We need to see pics of you.

 

[Crazymank]

people that are ripped are a lot more intimidating.

so someone who is 300lbs, but 30% body fat, might have the same amount of muscle as a dude who is 250 and under 10% body fat.

but which one would you rather fight?
