    Nah bruh, most gym communities are pretty welcoming places. I love seeing fat folks making an effort - how the hell are you going to give someone a hard time for trying to make themselves better? That’s pathetic and I don’t think that happens much at all. I’m on the other end being a wimpy twig, I step on machine that a 50yr old woman just steps off and I cut the weight in half of what she had it on and start grunting. I’d be an easy target I guess if people wanted to be jerks, but I’ve seen nothing but respect thankfully.

      Building muscle is hard for some folks and it takes time. The biggest dudes at most gyms are the nicest folks. The “big guys” that make fun of people… Get eaten for breakfast by the real gym kings. You don’t get huge by being full of yourself, you get that way through a ton of hard work and learning to humble yourself.

      I knew a dude that was a pro wrestler, huge AF. Had the world’s biggest comic collection in his basement, total sweetheart. He played a heel to further add insult to injury lol
