This obsession with muscle building

[Dominik Kahan]

Am I the only one who doesn't get this whole obsession with building muscle (including abs etc), and prefers simply keeping a low body fat count and been thin? It just seems like so much effort, and tbh most of the results that come from bodybuilding and weight lifting (abs in particular) just look so unnatural and repulsive to look at. I'm saying that it's good to be overweight, or to be an obese slob, but my idea of a good look is to simply keep body fat to a minimum and achieve a natural lean look.

Exactly, bodybuilding is not a panacea ... to be killed in the gym and get injured by super weights ?! You can look cool and doing more advanced sports and with your own weight! For example, yoga or pilates are more functional, in my opinion.
