Bodybuilding is simply not a sport, it is a lifestyle that bounds everyone in a very strict spell of discipline which no one is allowed to slip off. The strictness of this tough lifestyle often becomes very restrictive and suffocating for all, however, some cannot handle it. What happens when they do quit after all? Does it end their lives or does it bring something new to the play?

Sami Rose denies rumors of letting herself go

In one of her recent posts, Sami finally delivers an answer to all the hate directed towards her when she quit being a bodybuilder. In the video, she showed various facades of her life after the gym – which she didn’t quit completely, except she goes there only when she feels like it. She recites, “I guess a lot of the people would say I let myself go, especially knowing that this is how I looked 6-7 years ago. And honestly, I have let myself go. I have let myself go out for dinner and drinks and order what I want instead of what I think I ‘should’ have.

Rose continues to talk about everything she has done which her previous life had kept her in the restricted zone. She lists down going to the beach with a bikini, and stopped wearing extra layers to hide what others call ‘flaws’. She also mentions she shops whatever she likes and never considers which clothes look good on skinny people. Last, but not least, she goes on dates. However, it pleases her.

It is always advised to pursue the goals where your happiness lies. Bodybuilding is a highly ambitious sport that requires several physical promises. It certainly cannot give everyone an equal amount of happiness. It is better to find a way that one finds motivated to pursue. Sami Rose’s new venture after quitting one journey, and then liking another journey as she is right now is certainly an inspiration for several people.
