Bodybuilding isn’t cheap- food, gear, training, and coaching can make the road to becoming a legend super expensive.
Now that’s where the generous benefactors come in handy!
Famous bodybuilders like Arnold Schwartzenegger, Sylvester Stallone and Kai Greene made money as muscle for hire and it wasn’t always as security detail. Muscle worship and muscle posing can sometimes bring in the bucks if you find the right audience.

If you’re not used to going to the gym, working out can seem like you’re walking through a field of landmines.
Am I doing this right? Will I hurt myself? Do I look good? They’re all going to laugh at me! And what happens If I run into the person I hooked up with last week and it didn't go so well because my Bulgarian Split Squats in bed didn’t impress them much?

In the 1980s, actress and workout guru Jane Fonda popularized the mantra “no pain, no gain” as a way to suggest that discomfort is necessary for muscle growth.
Unfortunately, this type of thinking can lead folks to ignore the very injuries that might be holding back their gains.

There’s a belief that fitness and comedy are at odds with each other. We’ve seen many comedians get jacked and then they don’t appear to be as funny.
Carrot Top famously said he stopped bodybuilding because it didn't fit his style. Dave Chappelle put on muscle and started trolling trans people, and who can forget those awful Bud Light TV ads from the 80s where Joe Piscopo dressed up in drag and flexed his bulging biceps?

Bodybuilding legend Ronnie Coleman loves to say “Everybody wants big muscles but nobody wants to lift no heavy ass weights!”
