All good — but the issue is not what you lift, and why, but what Vin can handle; and what justification you have for criticizing the capacity and goals of somebody at Vin’s level — or anybody else, for that matter.

… which is possibly why he’s let his Rent.Men profile expire.

Aw, bro — you’re too kind! And honestly, to the extent that I am progressing in my physical transformation journey, I owe you a significant debt of gratitude, for helping me along The Way. From the first time we met you have supported and encouraged me in my quest for physical excellence, always ready with valuable advice drawn from your own phenomenal success. I am the merest Padawan Learner; but if I “get it,” even a little bit, it’s partly because of your generosity. 💪🏻😘

Thank you for explaining this, Danny. It’s important for people — folks and friends! — to realize how critical these intensely focused growth and refinement projects are for you, and other physique stars. Bodybuilding is an art form, and like any other art form, native talent (genetic advantage) is the base, but creating a masterpiece requires, on top of that, endless practice (brutal training), phenomenal discipline (diet and supplementation), and above all, a clear artistic goal, a VISION of the body you are trying to achieve. It’s both fascinating, and frankly humbling, to learn something about your progress.

Weight plates are there to be used. And that amount of weight is only absurd if you can’t handle it. Sour grapes?

Ohhhhhh, Danny! What @nycman said, LOL. Just hope I don’t wear myself down to nothing in the course of the fall!

Fuuuuuuuck. Nobody on earth electrifies a long slow holiday weekend like you do, buddy. Just one question: WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO BETWEEN NOW AND DECEMBER? 💪🏻😳

He had planned to visit NYC in June, but had to cancel because of a work commitment. I’ve checked in with him a couple times since then, but he’s got no firm plans yet to visit this fall. We live in hope!

Never replied to me, either, and I’m not inclined to chase him LOL

Danny has confirmed that his travels in the late fall will include New York City, which makes THIS myophile very, very happy. I plan to give a couple hours of Danny’s time to myself as an early Christmas present!

I see, by the way, that his profile is only about 10 days old. A bit of backstory: I was on a crowded uptown subway train in NYC last week, and found myself standing near one of the more striking men I had seen (outside of an OF video LOL) in a long time. We made brief eye contact, and he winked at me. Pretty sure it was this stud!

Hello guys — Anybody have experiences to share concerning this beautiful man? https://rent.men/BrunnoAc I found no mention of him on the forums, but perhaps he has changed his name. Feel free to message me privately if you like. Thank you!

No response yet at all, unfortunately. I texted and RM messaged him. It’s only been 36 hours, though — if I don’t hear back by sometime tomorrow, I guess that will be his answer!

I’ve reached out to him, and will report back!

You presented your opinion as objective fact. We called bullshit. You did not like it.

Of course he is, and of course he knows it. But he’s not very good at it, which makes it impossible not to troll him back!

Ah. The technical term for that body type is “skinny-fat.” My sympathies!

Seems likely, doesn’t it?

Go right ahead, bro — marshal your facts, and prove me wrong.

…and sorry, but that is a LAUGHABLY ignorant statement. The kid has some serious muscle under that modest padding, which accounts for his ca. 200 lb. weight, at about 5’10” tall. Your “rule of thumb,” aka BMI (body mass index) is a bullshit measurement when applied to any male with significant muscle mass, because the overly simplistic formula does not distinguish fat, which is less dense/heavy relative to size, from muscle, which is far more dense/heavy relative to size. Were he not muscular, his stats would indicate obesity; but he IS muscular, so his BMI means nothing.

Huh. Poor baby, did he block you? Make fun of your equipment? Overcharge you? Tell mama how he hurt you!

Me too, Danny!

In any case, as of this morning, 1. His profile has expired, 2. His current location is given as Dubai, and 3. All but one of his photos have been removed.

He contacted me via RM and said some sweet and flattering things. He’s not exactly my type, and on principle I generally don’t pay much attention to sales pitches; but after reading the glowing comments here I can feel my resolve slipping …
