    this thread is ridiculous...as its perfectly normal to lift for aesthetic reasons..its not your call to judge ppl based on their goals..some ppl are after overall look and functional strength,some ppl are after pure mass and brute power,some ppl (most likely fitness models are after aesthetics)..so give us a favour and close your pointless thread..

    This thread was meant to be funny not serious! The idea came to me from a recent poker game where
    A asked B "Have you been working out?"
    B responded "No I just started buying tighter shirts"

    I thought it was funny. Sorry if you disagree. I did place this in the Chit-Chat, Fun, and Games section.

    People should feel free to exercise for any reason they choose!

    Okay then. Where can I buy that shirt? You're sure it will work?

    and I found it a very little funny..yet I'm still willing to admit that I miss-understood his intention if thats the case and send my apologise...but please don't come up with this ppl are too sensitive thing followed by wink cos its really irritating too as its been here million times before...what do you know about anyone here?nothing...I was merely too sensitive just simply miss - understood the thing..

    I think the op was trying to make a bigger point about internal vs external motivators but he fell short
    No I think the OP was trying to be a smart *kitten* and thats why its irritating..I really find ppl that have nothing to put on the table yet but being "smart" really annoying..

    You do realize this is in the "fun and games" section right?

    and you do realize that this could have been still placed in the same section with his previously miss - understood intention of him being a smart *kitten*..which would really make him a smart *kitten*...

    False. Tighter shirts means an embarrassing wrestling match with said garment in a fitting room, that results in bruises on your ribcage and a sore bicep getting considerably sorer.







    Lesson: always assume you are a size bigger than you are when buying compression wear. :embarassed: :frown:

    Requests that poster not make this about people being too sensitive, immediately becomes sensitive about following the post with a wink.

    If your only goal is to make your muscles to look bigger, just buy a tighter shirt!

    @OP - where can I buy one of these shirts? Getting tired of lifting weights.

    Nike.com or any authorized retailer. Under Armor and other brands also carry similar compression shirts.

    Don't forget: makes point of not really knowing anyone here, then uses someone's own profile tag against her in a "clever" dig at not achieving same level of progress.

    In other words, a real class act.

    I just figured I'd stop lifting and buy a hulk suit to wear under my uniform. I used to rock a protective vest that made me look pretty buff....

    I have a friend who is a cop and his bullet-proof vest just makes him look fat. he's not, but the vest makes him look like it.

    Prolly made me look fat too, but I really thought I was tough HAHA. I was pregnant for part of the time too, so that was a double whammy!

    @ccmccoy- nah, you look sexy already. Don't buy one. I bought an extra small and it cut off my circulation :laugh:

    Didn't plan on wearing a shirt so that's out the window.


    Well, I wasn't planning on wearing pants, so I guess the shirt may still work for me.
