On a personal level, I think that I like the idea of a kind of normal looking guy who might little by little become more muscular with the passage of time and the ongoing doing of pushups, and sure some of us might become more muscular with this passage of time than others, yet we still might not look much different than the average Joe, except maybe in terms of measuring our current selves against our prior selves we might become more in shape with the passage of time... or maybe it is just a psychological thing, and we gain confidence, even though we really do not look very much different from when we started?
