Thank you. It seems that in our day and age, just having a healthy weight and healthy levels of body fat isn't enough anymore, at least for people in the anglosphere.
I'm glad this obsession with getting big doesn't exist in Western Europe.
I was thinking the same thing. All this "male aesthetics" and "confidence/dating game" is such a weird thing for me. I have never heard this in Eastern Europe. "Have confidence" is something you say when someone goes to a job interview or an exam, because they should have confidence in themselves so they don't screw up the answers. At the gym I went, guys mostly cared about raw strength (like Vitali Klitschko), not to look like a pretty boy from a Hollywood movie.
