Sometimes I walk past the mirror and think to myself, "Damn, I'm looking better every day". Yeah, it's a vain thought but I think to do what we do, you have to have a certain belief in yourself and some inherent vanity in your external appearance. I know I do.

I especially enjoy getting home after my resistance training when I'm pumped and seeing how I look just before I jump in the shower... It's instant motivation every time...

Yep, every evening before I get in the shower. I pose in the bathroom mirror which just shows my upper body and the lighting seems to enhance it. I just keep away from the mirror in daylight though ;)

Yeah, if I looked like you, I would pose at every opportunity. Answering the phone, picking something up, reaching for juice in the fridge, scratching my head; all of those would be isometric poses. :db:

Craig, is that you in your avatar? And, if not, who is it? Because he is absolutely gorgeous! :drool:

Oh and yeah, even though I ain't got a lot, I also do a bit of posing in the mirror pre-shower. :D

what fascinates me the most about working out is the veins that have started coming out of my arm (and now bicep) while im working out. i dont know why i find these so fascinating, i just do.
