I have always liked to play hard.
Unfortunately marks were always a problem for me. When I was single I was probably unnecessarily paranoid about being seen in the locker room or gym which thinking about it now I could have dealt with easily.

Then I got married and was always too scared to take any serious marks. I was also again probably unnecessarily worried about a doctor seeing them and wondering or knowing where the marks or scars were from. Right now I am old , still married and don’t session much anymore due to logistical constraints. Being honest with myself the way we live our life I could probably take a good beating with marks and be able to hide them from my wife until they fade but I still worry about her spotting the marks.
