Remember, this is for posterity so........be honest.

Question:
Do you still suck in your gut and flex?

Choices:
Of course. I am an Adonis
Ummmm....yes.
No, I avoid mirrors.
I am a Leftist. I don't have a reflection

 

Mirrors, avoid me.

I’ve gotten close to 140 lbs again so I guess the answer is no.

Just .. .. no. This assumes that it's not the faces we make while sitting on throne.

I'm a stud. So, yes.

If you mean flex my buttocks, then yes.

Only mirror in my home is about the size of a dinner plate and hung at head level. I'm 6-2. For shaving and combing hair only.

Yes, but someone seems to have replaced my mirror with one of those carnival funhouse versions.

"Still?" Never did in the first place.

Not anymore. In my 20’s when I was working out hard and built, you bet; everyday. Now that I am almost 48 I rarely think about it. Once in a while I have flexed to see how much I am no longer like I was in my 20’s.

When I read that my first thought was Eddie Murphy. Skip to around the 40 second mark.

Damn! I weighed 140 when I was in maybe 7th or 8th grade. But, I did drop down to 160 (from 190 in about three weeks) when they admitted me to the Hospital in '85 when I was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes. At that time, I was referred to as a "stickman". But I'm sort of tall.

At 65 , almost 66 I still do. I am still 5'10" and 205.
But , I lift weights and exercise like the 40 somethings at the gym.
I'll die from something , but being out of shape and frail won't be the reason !

Ummm, only from the front view not the side view anymore

62 with an active lifestyle, a regular exercise routine and a hot 61 year old wife.

There has to be some benefit to getting brutalized by the 20 year old white belts at jits every week.

Ok I got one. I had been hitting the free weights hard for almost two years and making good gains (oh, and I’m 56). So about six months ago I was flexing in the mirror and heard a grinding pop from my left forearm. It was over, my bicep balled/swoll up and I haven’t been able to lift, till today. Today is my first day back and I’m starting light and working my way back up.
So yes, I did.
Good luck and be careful.

When I look in the mirror, I see my old man staring back at me.
That stops the self admiration right quick!

Does twirling My pistol and saying „Are you talkin to me“ count?

I did until my wife told me it was a carnival mirror.

Is she of Lithuanian descent?

Flex? More like sag

But I've been known to snap a yearly "Adonis" pic for my GF mid-summer, when I hit a yearly low weight. Amazingly, there is a remnant of a six-pack with only 20-30 sit-ups 4-5 times a week.
