It's a realization that will hit you after you get out of your early 20s and the idealism gets eclipsed by reality.
Some of Casey's comments in the BR thread are particularly appropriate.

PowerMan I LOVE what you have to say in this thread and agree with it wholeheartedly from what I can understand of the science behind it. I am learning about my own realistic possibilities as a woman bber and watching how hard even 1lb is to keep on as I do my first cut. Before I started my cut I thought I was pretty badass too with my bulk and had overestimated how much LM I had. It is easy to do.
I just don't get why the kids on here are arguing so strongly on this subject. Your points do not negate Fullman or Waittz from becoming bbers. They could both still compete and do well even if they do not hit 200 lbs at 4% bf. This whole obsession with going to 200lb or more at less than 6' height just boggles my mind. They clearly have never done a proper cut yet.
