How Buff is Buff?

So you ask, how buff is buff?

Buff is an attitude
Buff is a state of mind
Buff is a place that you want to be

Buff is squatting until you cannot squat no more
Buff is deadlifting weights that bend the bar
Buff is benching until your spotter's sweat drips on to your face

Buff is black powder whispering in your ear that you will lift heavy ass weights
Buff is executing every lift with pure focus and form
Buff is the 3 x 8, the 5 x 5, the 5 -3 - 1.
Buff is feeling the pump, getting swole.
Buff is your Gold Standard, repairing you for more buff to come

Buff is hypertrophy
Buff is strength
Buff is power

Buff is supersets
Buff is the one rep max
Buff is Cross Fit
Buff is one more rep
Buff is two more reps after the one more rep
Buff is beast

So how buff is buff?
That is an easy question to answer:
Buff is buff.

I feel very embarrassed right now, in hind sight this is a pretty shizer poem that doesn't leave me feeling very hetero. I did want to try my hand at poetry, and I got to say I don't know how poets get any confidence in what they write - surely they feel like absolute douches. All modern day poets must be sexually confused hipsters or something. I am going to delete this after Anthony reads this so if you get to read this consider yourself lucky.
