Had given a baby chuckwalla some water, I think it was last weekend

This was the backstory I posted on fb to my 200k member state hiking channel. What pisses me off is that YouTube short cropped the screen for some reason, cropping out the lizard that shown fully in the original vid

Gave a thirsty baby chuckwalla some water on my hike. Almost accidentally stepped on a bigger adult’s head further up, and that one ran when I tried to give him water like “you think I’m gonna accept that after you almost stomped my head?”. But other hikers who saw it said that after I continued down, he came out and drank off the rock. He just didn’t want to give me the satisfaction of seeing cause he still mad I bet

I try to go hike at 11am, closed for rescue. Ok, I’ll go kill an hour at the gym. Come back, still closed at noon. Ok I’ll go get my truck washed and waxed. Then I go chill at home for a bit, come back at 1:30pm

Finally it’s fucking open, and I’m the first one there in an empty parking lot. As soon as I hop out, over rushes a park ranger

“You hike this often?”
Me: “Yes, very”
“We had to do two rescuers today”
Me: “Oh wow, yea I tried to come earlier but it was closed”

“You aware of what time it is now?”
Me: “1:30?”
“You aware it’s 101 and going to be 105?”

Me (tired of this): “Yea I’m not worried. I went up this twice in a row last weekend” (almost no one goes up twice in a row due to how challenging it is)

“It wasn’t as hot as it is today last weekend”
Me: “no you’re right it was 94” (at this point I have to make a concentrated effort not to scoff. Going up and down an entire second time is much more difficult than going up once in 6 degree hotter heat. And I could have mentioned last week on my first up I was racing to stay ahead of one of the fastest regulars on the second half)

Me:“Like I said, I would have gone up earlier but it was closed”

“Yea for two heat related rescues”

Me: “Yea”

At this point it’s basically a Mexican standoff. I’m thinking ok man, unless you are going to legally detain me I’m going up now. And I pretty much just walked away

Dude was either pissed or trying to do his due diligence or both. Either way I don’t fault him for it. And I was more than fine

But from here out it’s tiple digit temps until Oct, so I found this fitting:

Of course physique inflation is a thing

And yes, male body dysmorphia is not only rampant, it’s not really stigmatized. Almost glorified. BIGorexia is very much more of a thing than ever

But this is the correction: there are far more overall people on very small amounts of PED’s, yes. The ones stacking compounds or juicing to the gills seem roughly the same. It’s just that with good training and diet, it doesn’t take much of something illegal, quantity wise, to cause huge benefits

But yep standards are only going up. AI impossi-bodies are going to make it 5x worse. At least I know what I like about me and want for me, and that hasn’t changed with the increase in bio hacking being done by anyone who can afford it and wants to risk it

I have an hour to kill here at the airport so I want to comment to myself

Not only is it a thing, but it is also heavily influenced by area. San Diego on the beach was off the freaking charts this year. I have been going to the same San Diego beach gym (twice renamed and under new ownership) for the past 12ish years there when on vacation with their 1 week pass

And it was so crazy of a culture shock this year for some damn reason, I still can’t shake it. I’d walk in any time of day or night and think, did I just walk on the Mr Olympia stage? I didn’t realize my tryout was today I guess, shoot I should have oiled up

It’s always been crazy in there but this time I would literally be pacing around this giant gym looking for a particular piece of equipment and it would take a half hour of passing people before I was like oh shit, there’s someone smaller than me. I’m not nearly the biggest guy at my home gym either, but I’m at least top 30%ish. But this year, I was sub-1%

I’m assuming anyone who wasn’t a literal fitness model just felt too intimidated to go to this insane glamour fest of a gym this year. I mean literally every dude there not only looked huge and on PED’s, but most had flawless physiques I couldn’t think of a single critique for

It wasn’t all bad, however because the WOMEN. Oh my dear lord. First off the ones working there not only were insane physiques but gorgeous model faces 10/10 and I have high standards. And the ones working out were so shameless. I counted 3 separate times these 10/10 physique women with perfect asses were on the stairmaster in these super thin very tight pants that, when they sweat, basically became translucent. So then it was clear as day they were in their underwear and I could tell you what color and fucking logo was on their skimpy underwear they were working out in. I almost wanted to go over and say “ma’am I dunno if you realize but you pants have sweat through and everyone can see your underwear” but I figured they knew what they were doing

And they didn’t have an army of gawking bro’s like they would back home because there were so many that everyone was like desensitized

And this crazy gym-flation didn’t just exist IN the gym. Even on the boardwalk and everywhere outside, bro’s were bigger and in better shape than I’ve ever seen even this area. And I’m talking like 2x to 3x better in just one year

Crazy. If people can afford the drugs, which in SD they clearly can, they will take the drugs

Sounds like an area where people can afford to spend 3-4 hours a session per day in the gym if they wanted to (ie they don't work long hours). No lies I wish I had that kind of free time!
