    When you can basically just bear hug a dude into submission there's no reason to do anything else. Turn his ass around and get his arms behind his back and hold him til the cops come dude isn't doing shit. No reason to even put that dude on the ground.

    How can something be bad for you when the healthiest of people and athletes do it to some extent?

    Quite the opposite: It is possibly the best thing that anyone could do for themselves, healthwise, especially if you approach it like a bodybuilder does (except for the drugs). I find it amazing how misunderstood weightlifting is. When done properly, with good technique and moderate weight, it could be considered as a type of yoga.

    During a well constructed full-body workout, you pump blood throughout your body resulting in the maximum amount of oxygen and nutrients being delivered. With just the right amount of resistance, your body will react by growing muscle tissue, bone tissue, and tendon tissue. You'll increase the amount of veins and arteries that you have as well.

    People simply don't realize these things.

    It's a misplaced form of energy.

    People used to work... no time for working "out" lol. Now society is so spoiled, people have tons of free time on their hands so they invest it in vain purposes.

    You dont need to look like superman to have good bone health. To eat right, drink water, and move is plenty. Most of the weightlifting and body building culture is nothing more than an exercise in ego.

    there's a lot of "influencers" that work out alot. that's all they do. it's so vein it's sickening to see these people poisoning society.

    there's a chick on snapchat that comes up on my feed, day after day all she uploads is videos of her working out or laying at home doing nothing. even if i was that rich, i'd find something to do. how the **** can you do nothing with your life?

    that is pathetic yep .. I watch people at the gym and cringe sometimes .. some seem obsessed with it .. I go about 3 times a week for about 50 min and I'm done .. I'll do cardio on other days for my heart .. but these people I see when I get there and they're still going at it when I leave .. who knows how long they're there and others are just flat out there every single day .. some take it to the extreme but lifting weights definitely has its benefits

    I'm a gym rat. I workout everyday, I never post my workouts on social media, I just love the natural high you get after a workout. You can say I'm addicted to it.

    our bodies were meant to do work.

    that meant building shit, and having something to show for it.

    You guys are just mindlessly lifting weight for no reason.

    go for a damn run or walk lol.. do some pushups. it is way healthier.

    yeah idiot and lifting is "work"

    Humans evolved to be bipedal as running to hunt prey and carrying it over our shoulders became common. Lifting prey is in our genes and our bodies have been made to adjust.

    We're lifting to stay in shape. Not everyone wants to be a rocked out bodybuilder, there's plenty of fit people who do stuff like crossfit or just do lean workouts.

    for real, one thing is admitting you don't like lifting, another is acting like it's unhealthy(despite endless facts saying otherwise) because you don't do it
