What are your Goals?

At the gym today I saw an individual whom I see EVERYTIME I go to the gym, almost to a point where I'd be worried if I didn't see the fellow one day.

Thing is, this guy fits the build of "too big, too large, too bulky, no coordination, not athletic" kind of mold. Most people have different reasons for going to the gym. Whether it may be preparation for a specific sport, weight loss motivations, bulking up, or the betterment aesthetic appearances a concrete reason always must be there. I cannot understand where the premises this religious gym-goers motivation lay.

He was already huge, was attractive enough, but his exercises didn't seem to be geared towards a specific type of functional activity (I've seen his workouts). Maybe I'm too naive to see that weight lifting can be a hobby, but personally I feel there needs to be a greater goal involved. At a certain point, endlessly going to the gym just to lift seems too monotonous for me.

Nice chicken lunch sandwich today...very healthy day. pretty proud of myself.
