What's Yer F*E*T*I*S*H - Furry Muscle Worship - Or Worse?
Big Muscle Bear BodyBuilding Blog Filed in: Gay Life
Once you get a guy's pants down around his ankles and fiddle inside a Bear's underpants - it's amazing how twisted their heads can get when ya start whispering dirty things in their ear and tugging on their butt-furr.
Oh, I could stay on-topic and focus on Muscle Bear Worship - but to cover all the bases ya gotta get TWISTED and Go Deep into all the permutations and mutated brain cells that make men the dirty Bull-Pigs they were born to be. Leather - BDSM is too Queer Pop Culture comfortable and predictable, it's a codified part of our community but Kink and Fetish trips go so way beyond that...

Some local Bad-Boyz here in Palm Springs are kicking off a new fraternal organization - the Desert Fetish Authority - with a looser, unstructured approach to what a Gay man's fraternal organization can be. And I like that notion: Within our community, far too many organizations become Corporate Hierarchy Money-Making Money Fund-Raising Machines - for good causes of course. But sometimes they lose sight of what might have brought them together in the first place: To simply provide members of our community an opportunity to meet and connect and find friends, a family, a brotherhood the broader culture clearly doesn't want us to have share or expose. Moreso if you deviate off the deviant scale into true unbridled sexual expression.
The first DFA gathering will be a social event with an educational demo on Thursday, February 9, 2012 from 7:30-9:30 pm at Hunters in downtown Palm Springs

Bearracuda Weekend Palm Springs : Speedo Bear Alert
Big Muscle Bear BodyBuilding Blog Filed in: Bear Circuit Events
Weather's looking to be nice for Bear-A-Cuda, Bearacuda, Bearracuda Palm Springs bear event. Sunny and 70-ish at least during the day when the skies are blue. But enuff to turn your nipples hard and blue late at night so do bring your mittens and bun-warmers if you're one to roam around hunting Bear meat in the evening.
Saturday and Sunday January 14 & 15 there'll be SF DJ's cranking the music poolside at CCBC Resort in Cathedral City. Noon to 3-ish is the best time to catch some rays and sun the buns. Featured DJ's will be the deliciously red-whisker flavored Bear - Rotten Robbie as well as Matt Consola and Brian Maier from Noon till 8pm Sat/Sun.

Shaking your booty totally naked (preferred) or packed into a slinky mens Speedo
(optional). If you have a total Bear fashion CRISIS beforehand, a quick trip to GayMart or BearWear Palm Springs will let you find ridiculously tiny, sleazy-easy swimsuits to suit your mood.
For those coming to Palm Springs for this weekend a good bet is Bear Happy Hour at Hunters Bar Friday evening from 5-ish to 7-ish. Afterwards, head across the street to Cafe Palette' and ask for my red-whiskered Bear buddy 'Roxxy' to serve you up a slice and a salad with a margerita, tell him 'BeefPieBear' sent you - and tip heavily - he needs the dough.
The ToolShed or Barracks after 10pm Fri or Sat are ideal for Bear bar hopping.
Bearracuda Circuit is scheduled across a host of cities across the US thru Jan-March, then across the ponds to Sydney for a wrap-up.

Biggest Loser Bears 2012 - New TV Season
Big Muscle Bear BodyBuilding Blog Filed in: Weight Loss
I'm not a fan of TV in general - or celebrity icon worship that television inspires. But I do like Reality TV that's REAL - and that's why I'm hooked on NBC's Biggest Loser. Whether you're fit or fat - there's so much to learn season after season of what it takes to get control of your life, and how the delightful torture of being tortured at the gym and schlepping weights around really is the linch-pin in a battle of life or death.

There's always a hot Bearish man - or four - each season on NBC's Biggest Loser worth rooting for. In the 2012 season: The furry, fuzzy Santa Bear with his great white beard and wooly pelt is the one to watch. At 62, you can still tell there's a barrel-chested TANK of a man behind the beard and under the carpet that I hope survives the UN-reality of Reality TV and can last through the challenges, politics, games and competitiveness that the show's premise of elimination necessitates.
What moves me most about Biggest Loser is the JOY I feel watching these dying, obese men and women utterly TRANSFORM themselves. When you're 100-200 pounds overweight, there IS something horribly broken inside which can get 'fixed' in the time spent working out at the gym. You really are carrying the weight of a DEAD PERSON on your back 24x7. That dead person is half of YOU, and it's the half that is killing you. So Big Belly up to the barbell Gainers and Fat Boys, and re-think what you're shoving into your pie-hole. An early grave ain't a sexy or glamorous life destination to end up in.

New Years Resolutions for Gay Bear Men - MuscleBear Version
Big Muscle Bear BodyBuilding Blog Filed in: Gay Life
The new year is always a great time to reevaluate What The Hell You Are Doings- And Why Are You Doing It? If you are a Muscle Bear or a MuscleBear Wanna-Be, it's a good time to look at the past year and what did and didn't work in both your daily life - and at the gym. And a chance to get it right-er. Do it smart-er. Get it better-er.
In athletic endevours it's smart to have, and set goals. Even if you aren't big on New Year's Resolutions, you can put a few things forefront in your Bear brain to help keep you on track. That said, some things to target in the year ahead:
1. Get Laid More Often: It relieves stress, stimulates natural hormone production and can help target underdeveloped muscles that you certainly aren't likely to reach at the gym.
2. Set Near-Term Goals: When clearly identified within a narrow, specific time-frame - you're much more likely to achieve changes you want in your life than those with a distant horizon. Think hours and weeks, not months and years. Start every workout with a clear goal in mind, be aware of it every minute, and don't lose focus until your time-limit or sets are done.
3. Push Your Boundaries: We all have our 'Comfort Zones' we tend to stay in - Have a buddy at the gym help you get past yours, or hire a Personal Trainer to impose an extra degree of discipline to take your further, faster.
4. Clean Up Your Act: That means your refrigerator and cupboards. We all have starchy, salty, greasy things in our kitchens that our bodies would be better without. If it isn't Clean - Lean - Whole - Fresh -- toss it and shop for better alternatives.
5. Leave Your Vanity At The Mirror: Even if you already are an Alpha Male Bear-Stud Muscle Stallion - The true measure of a man doesn't live in a measuring tape, and can't be seen in the reflection. True health and wellness is a balance of Mind, Body, and Spirit. Without real balance in all three, you're just a two-legged table waiting for a fall…

Tips For SpeedoBears : Laundering and Caring For Your Speedo
Big Muscle Bear BodyBuilding Blog Filed in: Speedo Bears
They say a picture is worth a thousand words. And when you see this one you're probably asking yourself:
"How should I care for my men's Speedo Brief after a swim in chlorinated or salt-water?
How can I get the maximum life from my Speedo and prevent the elastic fabric from sagging or decaying prematurely?
Should I, as a bald and hairy Bear man, allow slow damage to my Speedo swim wear
by leaving them on…?
Or, should I remove them promptly as I emerge from the water at the pool or beach and allow them to air dry quickly?
Should I photograph & document my Speedo care process in the event of a dispute over the swimming brief's warranty?
Should I ask other hairy Bear men to strip off their Speedos so that I can wash several at the same time?
And lastly:
"Will that Bear love and care for me the same way he obviously loves and cares for his Speedo?"

As a proud, Gay Speedo Bear and owner of MANY Speedo swim briefs -- I can tell you they DO wear out. Ocean salt water and pool chlorine DO take their toll on the lycra spandex fabric. Being seen publicly in a trashed-out, saggy butt-fabric worn-out, poorly cared for Speedo is embarrassing. One SHOULD rinse them with fresh water as soon as possible - and allow them to air-dry 'AU NATURAL' as demonstrated in the above SpeedoBear picture.

Branch Warren Trains Insane - Muscle Bear Madness
Big Muscle Bear BodyBuilding Blog Filed in: Pro Bodybuilding
Albert Einstein defined Insanity as "Doing the same thing over and over again expecting different results." Ah, but that IS the nature of weight-training, isn't it?
Clearly as a very Physical Scientist specializing in exploring Gravity, Mass, Inertia and Time -- Albert didn't spend nearly enough time at the gym doing heavy-duty squats, shrugs and presses sweating and grunting like a pig in a jockstrap - or he'd have come up with a somewhat very different, memorable quote. Especially if he'd had the opportunity to watch Branch Warren work out.
Ya have to wonder what's going on in that big, lumpy noodle of his as Branch cranks through is own gravity, mass, inertia and time continuum. You can bet there's some serious-ass internal dialog going on in there - only some of which escapes his lips for some memorable 'Fuckyeah!' quotes of his own. Check out more of Branch Warren - Train Insane segments 1-10 on YouTube and marvel at this little Muscle Moose in action.

Holiday and Any-Day Gifts For Gay Men : Muscle Bear Version
Big Muscle Bear BodyBuilding Blog Filed in: Gay Life
What if Mr. Claus came all year 'round -- And under that red Santa suit - there was a Beefy, Burly, Bodybuilding Grizz Daddy Top in a wrestling singlet strong-arming you and pinning you down to nail your tail asking: 'And what do YOU want for Christmas, little boy? Huh?!?' Well you'd better have an answer. Here's some gift suggestions for Gay men with muscle ready to fight back:
Muscle Boys - Gay Gym Culture
- If there's some brains behind the Bear brawn, some depth beneath the Muscle Bear - This is a great read for grokking Gay Physical Culture that we all get drug into whether we realize it, want to, or not - In and out of the gym.
Men's Grooming Kit
- A beefy selection of Paw 'N' Jaw, Hack 'N' Whack shaving and grooming tools for men - all in a zippered travel kit.
Grizzly Paws Lifting Gloves
- Grizzly makes a line of fitness gear for Power Lifters and Beefy Boyz. Perfect for slaves to bear-branded Brand Fashion.
Gorilla Suit
- Gay bodybuilder Bob Paris writes his long road to winning Mr. Olympia in the 80's and Coming Out afterwards - in a rather Straight business of fit chicks with boobs clinging to biceps. 30 years later - it's STILL a great read for any Gay weight-lifter or body-building Bear wanna-be.
Muscular Development
- Save yourself some big Bear Bucks subscribing to Muscular Development magazine. The newsstand price is staggering, especially considering how many Suppliment Ads you gotta wade thru to get to the actual articles. I'm just saying if you were stranded on a desert island with a #270 Body Building Bear - this would be THE BEEF-UP MAG he'd subscribe to, NOT Men's Fitness.
Big Muscle SEO - Strong Arm Wrestling Tactics Pack Muscle
Big Muscle Bear BodyBuilding Blog Filed in: Bear Websites

If you're even reading this, you've already been strong-armed, wrassled down and pinned to the mat by one heavy-duty SEO Top Bear Dad. Now lick it! Cuz that's what I do for a living: I force dirty, hungry bad-boys searching the net for big ol' hairy Bear men things into submission and drag 'em into my dungeon to do with ya what I will. What I lack in Brawn - I make up for in Brains. Big Beefy Brains that need a daily workout.
When I'm not at Golds or World Gym humping my butt, swimming, trying to eat a clean-er diet, and getting enough rest -- I'm in a head-on full-body assault with The Big G - Mr. Google. I spend hours body-slamming websites down his throat and makin' him eat keywords like he was my spunk suckin' Boy! (Well, truth to admit - sometime he spits up what I'm feeding him - and I gotta bark 'SWALLOW IT!' to git him to choke it all down. My little Bing-Bearcub and Yahoo-Hole -- well, they're a lot easier to train…)
Why do I mention all that? Well, rather than go all Search Engine Optimization and Internet Marketing Geek-Psycho on your furry butt -- I'll tell you this: My time spent at the gym is how I COPE with all this Power Blogging and Internet Instigator - Dominator krap. I lift weights to grind out my frustrations. I crank cardio to have the physical endurance push thru it all the geeky tech stuff, swim laps ala Speedo Bear to wash the nerd dirt outta my brain cells. So I have the stamina and strength to carry on. Big Muscling your way to the top of Google ranks ain't for sissy boys. It's an Olympic feat - and I train hard to do it.
Bear On Wheels - Roller Daddy
Big Muscle Bear BodyBuilding Blog Filed in: Roller Skating
70's FLASHBACK - Ding's roller rink in the 4-H building at the County Fair Grounds. The Soundrack: The Osmonds, Bobby Sherman, and The Jackson 5. The Objective: Stay Upright! The Fear: Having to find a GURL to do the romantic "Twighlight Skate" with the lights dimmed down -- when all ya really wanted to do was hold hands with a hairy-pawed guy while the Osmond's 'Sweet & Innocent' played over the loudspeakers:
HERE: My Secret Crush, Mutt. If it is possible to fall in LURVE over YouTube: Help! I've fallen and I can't get up -- unless this man reaches down his hairy paw and gets me back on all 8 wheels again:
80's FLASHBACK - Rhythm-Land roller rink, North Minneapolis. GAMMA Gay Athletic Club sponsored rink nights. The Soundtrack: David, the Hip-Kweer D.J. who guided us safely out of 70's Disco into 80's Dance Pop. The Objective: Avoid that f*cked-up part of the rink floor - right at the curve that EVERY indoor rink seems to have. The Fear: That Beautiful, Black Bearded Ken wouldn't stick out that big hairy paw and ask me UP for the Twighlight Skate when they dimmed the lights and played sappy songs. But he did. And we skated together. And then he took me home and screwed my brains out. Ahhh, fond memories...
FAST FORWARD: I want to re-live my misspent youth. That does it, I'm gonna order some Quad Skates and get my roller MOJO back! And then I'm gonna hunt Mr. Mutt down and have that Daddy-Bear Dream-Skate I seem to need in the 21st Century.

Why Its Hard To Build Muscle - Lose Fat - Look Great
Big Muscle Bear BodyBuilding Blog Filed in: Fitness Books

The nice thing about READING ABOUT EXERCISING is that you can sit on your duff and munch potato chips while you do it. No groans, no moans, no pain, no gain. Well, at least while you're reading about getting fit and fabulous. And that's okay because: 1. You can't exercise 24 hours a day anyways. 2. Excelling at something implies learning and building your body of knowlege about it FIRST, then practicing it second. 3. Your brain needs to be set in motion before your body can actually do it.
Lately, I've been sitting on my duff reading Build Muscle Lose Fat Look Great: Everything You Need to Know to Transform Your Body
All these wrongs - frequently pointed out through the book - teach you more about why your own workouts haven't yielded the results you believe you should have gotten. And it can help to make you more critically aware of everything you do at the gym - and perhaps how you haven't been doing it.
