The Fit Gay Bear Tribe

I've long had an academic and sociological interest in sub-culture identities as well as a keen passion about the concept of neo-tribalism. When you look at the Gay Bear men's community as a whole, you see a 'tribe' that factioned off into it's own community of 'guys like us.' That encompasses a rather large range of Bear types.

THE BEAR BOOK

The Gay Bear Tribe

For some it's the big-boned, husky boys that turn their crank, for others it's Bigger Is Better chubba-bubba-belly types, for other's - it's all about the hair Bear - and the fetish for fur. And for still others it's about the burly and beefy hairy muscular Bear men they're so drawn to.

It wasn't till I was an aging 40-something Bear getting older, fatter and out of shape that the MuscleBear wannabe in me 'came out' and I made a commitment to reversing that disturbing trend. Moving out to California to join some sort of tribe of fit men amongst the MuscleBears and make a huge lifestyle change was part of that.

We all choose the kind of Bear life we want day by day, moment by moment. I personally chose NOT to give up and cave-in to a life of ever increasing body weight and related health issues. Becoming a Fit Bear - and not a Fat Bear has been a really hard road. That commitment to integrating exercise into DAILY life and controlling that old Bear's pie-hole isn't easy. I needed to choose a tribe of like minded fit Gay men to align with that.

Fitness vs Fatness - Back On The Treadmill

Hmm. Daily exercise and I still got fat over the summer here in the
Northwoods. I blame the pot-pies and cheese nachos. Swimming every day just
isn't enough, what with being over 50 and all. Back to Calif I go, back to
another round of MuscleBear wanna-be at the gym for months on end. I swear
this fat is going to MELT off me. Just like pot-pie gravy runs off a spoon
or like cheese drips down from piping hot nachos. I'll just MELT off the
fat!

Beef-Up Buff-Up Tough-Up - Belly Up To The Bar

If you were stranded on a desert island and could only have ONE piece of weight-training exercise gear - what would it be? Personally, I'd choose a SPRI 24lb. Body Bar w/Foam Padding.



4 feet long, dense as heck, and covered with no-slip grip dense foam - it's possible to do a total body workout routine: From deadlifts to squats to curls to presses, from head to toe. Available in weights up to 24 pounds... Oh you don't think that's very heavy? Set a workout timer to 30 minutes and schlep that weight around non-stop till ya puke : You'll get a great work-up-a-sweat work out!
