Hardcore is not quitting - at anything. Hardcore is getting knocked down, and getting the fuck back up and putting one foot in front of the other. It’s a rare trait. The character “Rudy” was hardcore.
Most people here (and in society) don’t even have the discipline and fortitude to even stick to eating clean, let alone a “diet”, let alone a program, let alone a lifestyle.
I was in the bars in Columbus every weekend hurting guys severely who tested my strength. My hand speed was so swift I sometimes wondered where it came from. I used to break those automatic punching machines that they used to make.
It’s easy to be tough when you’re fit, strong and healthy. It’s when you’re in trouble/sick/pain that your character really shines through. See Mike Tyson vs Kevin McBride. Iron Mike throws in the towel with no KO, no injuries etc. This from someone who, in his prime was arguably the greatest heavyweight boxer of all time.
It’s easy to be hardcore at my gym here in Taiwan.
Most every day I’m the strongest guy in the gym, then if I choose to end with some running on the treadmill I am without a doubt the fastest and longest-running guy.
It’s not bragging when you see how pathetic my gym is.

I find your interpretation of boxing history disturbing.

I assume you think Muhammad Ali could’ve beat a 20-year-old Tyson or some such shit? I did say ‘arguably’ anyway. What’s your point here?
So…we really can’t discuss “hardcore” in the sense of weight lifting in a serious discussion on the site?
It may all be relative, but I am pretty sure I am more “hardcore” in the gym than the people who look the same or worse over the same time period. That doesn’t mean the “single mother of three” isn’t hardcore at “being a mother”…but she damn sure isn’t “hardcore” in the gym so it’s a good thing we aren’t discussing her.
