Tom Hardy - Inspiration for shorter(ish) guys

That is a huge difference from those earlier pictures..
As a shorter (5'7 - 5'8) guy, I look at Tom Cruise and Marc Anthony as inspiration.

Aren't the majority of actors short to begin with?

Is 5'9 short nowadays?
I always thought it was average

Tom cruise gets a bad rap due to his weirdness. Solid actor and very charismatic.
On a side note 5'9 is not short.

I'm personally 5'9, 5'10 in shoes. Girls *think* I'm short if they see that on paper. In reality, imposing bulk makes you appear bigger general thus I always tell girls I'm 6 foot and since they suck at dimension perception, they believe me.

Shorter guys have to work harder to prove something.
Not surprising some of the best male actors are rather short.
We do????
Me being 5'6 has never been an issue or hindrance to anything I've accomplished in life.
To each its own I guess.....I'm a short ass playa with these women and once I hit them with the mule my short height is really obsolete as a consideration.
Life has been great to me so far in all aspects.

I said shortish. True, it's not short but I mean sub-6 foot - not what a lot of the guys with the most impressive physiques in the media.

The documentary on the DVD of Bronson about him training for the role said he was doing like 2000 pushups a day, sick! I didn't think that was even possible, it changed my whole concept of pushups and it's true, you can do a ton more pushups than you actually think and at a certain point they become easy.
What I do is mark a period of time off, half an hour, an hour, two hours, and do a set of pushups to failure, take a short break and do another and keep doing that, even if you can only do four or five. It's a great workout but you have to keep perfect form!

hahaha! Shit, I didn't even think about that. No wonder all those pushups haven't turned me into Bane!
stars always lie about that shit, they said that twilight guy put on 30 pounds of muscle which is bs, and yes most actors juice for roles

Want to look ripped? Take a pic of yourself with a major lighting source that is on one side of you.

Agreed brah !
That's why girls suck at parking and driving.
Also most chicks are fine tuned to feel out behavioral traits in men and sniff out the beta ... but have no clue about what's what when it comes to physical traits in a man.
They think 16 inch arms are "enormous" & compliment me on my 6.2 inch dick and how huuuge it is ( I just lol ).
