I feel selfish just asking this. To start, I love my boyfriend to death and I'm very much attracted to him. When I met him he was jacked but he was also taking some sort of protein pill so that he could build muscle faster. Well the pills, along with a soda addiction caused him to develop a heart condition and he can no longer have any caffine at all. The heart condition developed within the first two weeks that we were dating, it's now 6 months later and he's lost at least 10lbs of muscle and now weighs about 123-128lbs and is 5'7" because he completely stopped working out to regain strength in his heart but now he's fine and is able to work out and continue normal activities. He still has muscle but its soft muscle. Anyway, I know he misses being jacked and I certainly have no problem with a man with muscles and he has lots of gym equiptment in his house collecting dust and I would like him to work out again but I don't want to say "Hey I think you should work out" because that makes it sound like I think he's fat..and he's nowhere near it. I just started thinking of this about a week ago and was coming up with a way to suggest it but lucky for me one of his friends just told him today he should start using his equiptment again but I'm not sure if he'll actually go through with it...he's a bit of a procrastinator. So how do I nudge him into doing it without making it seem like I like him better when he has muscle? I know he'd probably enjoy it because he used to be all about working out but I think he needs a little push to get back into it.

And then make out or have sex if you are having sex. Something to show him how much you appreciate his muscles now and then maybe add something like "Have you been working out again?" When you feel the time is right. So pretty much when you want to make out out even during. Hope I helped. And I'm NOT suggesting you have sex with him if you haven't to get him to work out! Please don't get the wrong idea! :) [ Isabel13's advice column | Ask Isabel13 A Question ]
