"maybe they are just jealous. if it makes you feel good about the way you look and more healthy then its good."I just think it's sad when people make assumptions like, they look fit n toned so they'll be too much hard work or expect too much of me/be outraged by my habits. It's crazy!! Thank you for your response though  | |||

"Gyms aren't for everyone. Ive never set foot in a gym in my life, the very concept of exercising inside a dull room makes me shiver to be truthful. However, I'm currently putting in around 150+ miles a week on my bikes, road and off road & over 3000 miles so far this year - that's how i keep fit. If the gym works for you then its a great place, if not then its a soulless hole. I need the mental stimulation from riding a bike that gym machines simply cannot offer. Each to their own so long as you are actually getting some exercise & keeping healthy." Sorry I should have said 'fitness bashing'. I prefer to do my cardio outdoors too! I know some people despise gyms. I'm quite the opposite though, I get very excited over a new gym .
That's awesome! I love cycling too. | |||

Lol yeah typical response x"You work hard to stay fit, sexy, confident and healthy. It shows motivation, strength and dedication. Regardless of what anyone says on 't interwebs you're amazing and shouldn't feel disconcerted at all. Most of us try to be the best we can be at any particular moment, whether that's with fitness or just in general, just some are better at it than others. Hold your head high and just be you and keep doing what makes you happy
My head hurts now, think I need a lie down  | |||

"There seems to be a lot of it in the forums these days. Light hearted or otherwise, it's equally as saddening as being slammed for being out of shape or 'anti gym'. I work very very hard on my fitness so I find it a little disconcerting that people have such views on it! I'm not spoiling for an argument but wanted to express my views - not sure if people realise.... "You'lll always get some twat trying to blow other peoples candles out to make theirs look brighter. Its a way of coping with their own personal insecurities . | |||

My head hurts now, think I need a lie down "Oh my goodness! That was very deep, quick here's an aspirin and a glass of water...now follow me to this darkened room... Seriously though thank you, I'm just trying to get across that it's just as mean to pick on fit people as it is unfit people xx | |||

"I need an exercise buddy. I hate the gym too... they smell bad. I'd rather be out on my bike or something but I'm rubbish at that motivation thing. If I had someone to go out with I'd do way more. Ultimate lazy bastard.
pity you are so far away then!

"I wouldn't say I've seen specific 'bashing' There's polarising opinions on people that keep fit in a gym over people that weigh lift on the sofa with a pint and a bag of pork scratchings. I (mr) have experienced both ends of the spectrum.........I was huge and had my own gravitational field at one time for which I was ridiculed, whispered about etc. Now I use a gym twice a day for 4 or 5 days a week, 5 stone shifted and I now get the 'why do you bother with that gym nonsense?' Criticisms. The simplest solution is to just say to oneself 'fuck you and your opinions, they're yours but I don't care about them and don't value them'" Brilliant! Well done you! | |||

Thank you, it's been hard graft and work still in progress. Does help when the gym I use is a massive extended family at times. So many friendly people and helpful trainers. | |||

"Not posts - comments within posts. What I was getting at was comments like: I wouldn't meet a fit, toned person because. ... Or they would expect too much of me... Or I won't meet people who have previously met 'slim' people etc etc. We are people too... Haha being funny obviously. " Oh well I've probably made comments like I'd feel intimidated meeting someone who was obviously very into fitness, or whose previous verifications were all small petite women. But that's entirely based on my own body hangups and shouldn't be interpreted as 'gym bashing' in any way, and I'd apologise if it had been. | |||

"If you enjoy it, and like working out, then enjoy it. If it puts some people off meeting you, they likely aren't your type of people, so its no real loss... For me the gym is my sanity space. Time to focus on movement, rather than work/family/child/other half/detritus of a week. I exercise about 5 - 8 hours a week minimum (more when I can) and over the last 4 years have lost 17 stone, and gone from a 24/26 with a 48GG bra, down to a 10/12, 32DD - I am much fitter and healthier now, and enjoy life more. I'm in the process of training to be a personal trainer, as I figure if I can do it, anyone can!" That's an amazing acheivement!!!!!!! | |||

"I always have admiration for those with the determination and dedication to keep it up. (Ooer). Mind you, I did once date a bidy builder who spent so much time in the gym he barely noticed when I dumped him." Hahaha! Obsession isn't attractive either. I suppose body building does take up an awful lot of time. | |||

They're not saying they wouldn't meet you because of how you are but because they'd feel out of place or like they weren't worthy of your interest. And incidentally, a lot of people do say they won't meet fat people, and how lazy and greedy we are. Often. | |||

Which of course is a preference but I'd bet my best shoes that the postee would be jumped on from a great height. See my point?" The difference between the two is that there is a stigma attached to being fat and calling someone fat can be seen as derogatory. People don't necessarily attach the same stigma to the term skinny (although I think it can be meant in an equally derogatory manner depending on the intentions of the person calling someone skinny). If I said I wouldn't meet someone because they're a bag of bones I would expect to be torn apart by the forums for being nasty towards a body type. But slim and curvy seem to be terms that are accepted. I've seen people saying they won't meet someone who is toned and fit because they don't understand what they would see in them (which may be down to their own body confidence issues) or because they associate being fit and toned with other attributes (e.g. vanity, self obsessed) or past bad experience with someone who was fit and toned. This is just the opposite end of the spectrum to your example of saying you wouldn't meet me because I'm fat which may be because you associate being fat with laziness, lack of hygiene or previous bad experience. Personally, I think there are loads of people with self confidence issues and don't understand why someone who takes good care of themselves would want to meet them. crystal | |||

Up to August i was motivated, hungry for racking up the miles & beating my mates on the climbs. I went on holiday to Cornwall last week & just 'stopped' as i realised i was overdoing it. This week the weather is horrible & ive no motivation to get out in the wind - its dangerous. *Mind you, took the big MTB to Cornwall & rode Cardinham Woods mtb trails, those road miles must have paid off because i could beat enough people up the 20% inclines on my 35lb bike | |||

Not meeting someone because of their weight is a preference. The terminology of that example is noticeably different to your other examples though. Not everyone will find you attractive. Not everyone wants someone with an amazing body. Focus on those who's preferences include rather than exclude you - it makes Fab far more rewarding | |||

"I aint a gym gerbil. I leave my sweat and pain outside. I am lucky enough to walk straight out into the wilderness tho. I understand if ya live in a big town or city, then the gym provides the lot. But ya cant get off the bike 50 mile from home if it rains or you run out of steam. God bless the penines. "How true! Bonking 20 miles from home with the prospect of Oxenhope Moor between you and home tends to focus the mind somewhat! | |||

So for that there is little other choice. I do miss climbing though, don't miss the hours of walking up mountains to get to places to climb though

"Maybe not so much in the forums, but there are LOADS of profiles which specifically say they're not interested in anyone who is big, overweight, BBW, or refer to keeping themselves fit and trim and only want to meet people who do the same.

I would hate to be responsible for making someone feel that way and I think many feel the same way.
I do get what you're saying though xx | |||

Clearly people are finding it difficult to grasp what I'm saying or I'm not making myself very clear. I find it as hurtful as an unfit person to be judged on my appearance. Perhaps that helps. Again - speaking in general terms." I think they get what you mean, but let's face it, you've got a pretty face and a gorgeous body why do you care what the good the bad and the ugly of fab think?? Most of the 'haters' would do a very quick turn around if you actually propositioned them!! You could have whoever you wanted to!! It's Luke when you turn someone down and they say 'didn't want to meet you anyway' it's just a preemptive version if you like xx | |||

"There seems to be a lot of it in the forums these days. Light hearted or otherwise, it's equally as saddening as being slammed for being out of shape or 'anti gym'. I work very very hard on my fitness so I find it a little disconcerting that people have such views on it! I'm not spoiling for an argument but wanted to express my views - not sure if people realise.... "Why let it bother you? On any given day you'll come across anti everything from: singles, single men, bi, marrieds, professionals, benefit scroungers, fatties as curvy, bbc, gym bunnies...you'll go mad if you let it taken on other people's negativity. Pretty pointless getting upset by nonentities. | |||

"maybe they are just jealous. if it makes you feel good about the way you look and more healthy then its good.
I just think it's sad when people make assumptions like, they look fit n toned so they'll be too much hard work or expect too much of me/be outraged by my habits. It's crazy!!
Thank you for your response though "Welcome to the world most of us inhabit. | |||

"Obsession isn't a word at all..... And we're not all lazy!!! Quite the opposite in some cases!! I work 16 hours 7 days a week and have done for the past 6 months. Where in that time can I fit in going to the gym?? Don't tar all fatties with the same brush thank you very much." just another excuse, I hear them all the time, if you are working 16 hours im guessing thats your choice! and whats sticking another extra hour on a day to lose some fat!! | |||

"Well I have to work my arse off to stay in shape, to look okish and feel healthy, I honestly would never be any different now! Speaking as someone who was extremely over weight in my younger days, I have the upmost respect for anyone who dedicates time to making themselves happier and healthier in body and in mind! These people who are "fitness bashing" are just lazy , unmotivated and jealous individuals who secretly wish they had the mind set and dedication to look and feel good , but no they would rather sit on their fat arses blaming everything else as to why they are overweight! Let them carry on with the horrendous lifestyles of no exercise, burgers and alcohol it will only end in one way for them!! Remember "obcession" is just a word the unhealthy use for us as an excuse for them being lazy bastards!!" OBSESSION - apologies spelling police!!! | |||

I've had some bad luck so I'm getting on with it! Why is that something to be ashamed about??
you make your own luck!!
Bullshit.
To an extent you make your own luck but some things are beyond control.
That is just smug tripe from someone doing better than someone else and congratulating themself on it.
now thats bullshit! of course you make your own luck, you make your own decisions, and if you are having bad luck now its down to the choices you have made in life, now stop feeling sorry for yourselves, you do know that exercise is good for you and releases loads of endorphin's? so get your arse the gym "You are full of self-satisfied crap. | |||

"Obsession isn't a word at all..... And we're not all lazy!!! Quite the opposite in some cases!! I work 16 hours 7 days a week and have done for the past 6 months. Where in that time can I fit in going to the gym?? Don't tar all fatties with the same brush thank you very much. just another excuse, I hear them all the time, if you are working 16 hours im guessing thats your choice! and whats sticking another extra hour on a day to lose some fat!!
Um because I have a house and animals to look after in that 8 hours off.... Oh yeah and sleep I also need to sleep. And no some of us DON'T have the choice not to work all the hours God sends. And before you start waffling about excuses and lack of motivation.... I've done marathons, tough mudder, triathlons but due to not training for six months my body has decided to go back to its natural state of chubby. So again don't judge until you know the whole story. Op this is why people don't like gym buffs.... He's a shining example xxx
how am I a "shining example" I passed my opinion is which im sure is the whole reason behind a forum?!?!
and of course you choose to work 16 hours! you choose to do everything you do in life, no one makes you do it, just like I choose not to sit on my arse and let my boddy go into a "chubby" state as you put it!

It's funny the one moaning about negative posts is actually the first one that made any.
Still, some people have to belittle others to make themselves feel better and can't cope with anything more than poking at the easy targets. | |||

To the OP....I can't ever remember people bashing others for using the gym but I stand corrected if you mail me a link....but it is often that the "fatties" get insulted all the time.
Now as this has turned into one of those threads again, maybe time to shut this | |||
