How dangerous is alcohol...

when asked if he drank milk, arnold says "no milk, milk is for babies. when you get older you drink beer."

It does mean, however, that you play in some type of league. At least where I come from.

Saying "I'm a bodybuilder" is the same--you might not be going to Mr. Olympia or the Arnold Classic every year, but it implies that you compete in local bodybuilding competitions, at least.

Have you not heard of street hockey?

How about bowling? If i say i bowl does that make me a pro bowler? I've bowled plenty of 225+ games but i've never been in anything official whatsoever...

Or golf? I'm a pro golfer now? I have to compete? I can't just practice and go to the course with my buddies for fun and get better for my own personal satisfaction?

There's a reason why there are adjectives. If you are a competitive bodybuilder put "competitive" in front of it like you're already doing. Or "pro."

Even if i did get huuuge and ripped i still wouldn't compete as a bodybuilder and if i'm 250 lbs of muscle you sure aren't going to tell me i'm not a bodybuilder because i don't stand up in spandex looking like a freak for other people to judge me as if what they say matters.

What's this attachment you have with everything having to do with being professional? Do you have OCD and you have this compulsion to add "pro" to everything? And I really hope you're not going to go up to olympians to tell them they don't count because they're not professionals.

Anyway, I've made my point, you obviously don't want to understand, or more likely can't, so I don't see the use of continuing this discussion. Besides, it's veering pretty far from the OP's subject.
