First, as I’ve pointed out earlier, comparing to sets that aren’t mutually exclusive is stupid. Let’s compare sports cars to 2 door cars and argue which is better. There is way too much overlap to make an intelligent comparison.

All you can really compare is individual people.

I also know the reason people start this argument. It was a little thing I picked up on living in Mississippi.

I’m from Atlanta, went to Georgia Tech, and like my college football. When I moved out to Mississippi, I was around people of 2 persuasions, MSU and Ole Miss. For those unaware of the south east college football scene, GT is in the ACC and ole miss and MSU are in the SEC. The 2 conferences hate each other. And yes, the SEC is in general the better football conference (though GT has 5 SEC titles on its’ resume). Whenever I would get into a discussion about said football and about who was better, both state and ole miss fans would always resort to 1 and only 1 argument. They would argue conference rather than team. Why? Because their teams sucked. They had to brag about of other teams in their conference, because that was the only argument they could make.

You see people that generally start the debate about whose sport is stronger, do so because they themselves are weak. Rather than let their accomplishments speak for themselves, they have to try brag about the abilities of others. That way a 130 pound skinny fat teenager curling his fisher price dumbbells in the squat rack can criticize the strength of a guy who is lifting more weight than they can even claim through a keyboard.

The point of this thread was to show that heavy lifting is what builds muscle. I also pointed out that many of these guys were or are powerlifters. I know that Levrone and Ronnie have powerlifting history, and Jackson is a powerlifter.

The intent was not to start a debate, who is stronger, powerlifters or bodybuilders.

In all honesty people act as though powerlifters and bodybuilders are two different breeds of human being, but in all honesty we are all the same, and there are going to be extremely strong bodybuilders and powerlifters alike.

I have no problem admitting either that I am not as strong as any of the guys I mentioned, because at 19 years old I’d be in the record books if I moved the weight Ronnie could.

I am comfortable enough to know that I am stronger than the majority of adults and definitely the lare majority of my peers that lift, so I hope your post was not directed at me because you would be very mistaken.

You need to get off your high throne.

You need to take down your avatar picture because you’re a bitch.

Haha i’ve been training for half a year, at least I got the balls to put my pic unlike some of these other people. Give me a couple of years bro.

Second Idc how much you bench or curl pussy, your chin don’t have any muscle. :slight_smile:

And all the other little dick eaters, thanks for doing your jobs. ;]

And then Austin_Bicep looks at the young mans avatar and shakes his head.

The kid’s been training for half a year he says to himself, but joins a bodybuilding forum racks up a 120 posts within 2 months, so he must think he knows what he’s doing.

Then I look at his lats, fuck he has none.

He also realizes how his waist and chest probably measure the same amount, a common symptom of forgeting to lift weights.

His bicep, the mere 12 inches it is, is smaller than most of the women who have put stats up in the ‘Arm size for Powerful Women’ thread. Ohh he must be jealous, I’m sure those ladies vaginas are much more actve than his too. Sad, but true.

And I won’t mention any of his other bodyparts that he is missing.

The question comes to my mind, does he think my chin is fat, or does he think he could hit me hard and make me cry because it is weak, or maybe that I run my mouth?

He’s probably just mad that I would kick his ass, that I would lift more than him, that I pull more bitches than him.

It’s hard, but I refrain from getting angry, actions speak louder than words, muscle is muscle, strength is strength. I have both and you don’t.

Anyways Ronnie Coleman and Kevin Levrone are King.

HAHA you pull more bitches then me? Please bro… I just watched your bench vid, and your one ugly ass bitch. If you think you’re really pulling more bitches then me, keep dreaming. All the muscle in the world isn’t going to help you.

Edit: Was that your mother spotting you?! LMFAO

Oh, man. This thread sounds like a high school party.

okay

  1. You are in Highschool. You don’t “pull bitches”. You don’t even know what sex is yet. You may think you know how to fuck, but you have no clue

  2. You are a keyboard warrior

  3. You are small & weak, please refrain from acting tough on the internet, you have no idea how ignorant you make yourself look with every post you make.

Watched the videos of Ronnie Coleman… his form sucks!

I’m afraid it’s too late for you.

At 11:37 on a tuesday night, thats the funniest thing I’ve read in a few hours

:frowning:

Oh, wait is this where I’m supposed to retaliate with an insult? After reading some of these threads, I’ve noticed how one person will insult another then an arguement will ensue. It’s so easy to give a hard time to some people under the cloak of anonymity.

I’m sorry, Ronnie Coleman is yoked but his form is terrible. I’m sorry if he’s you’re hero.

i actually hope you’re a troll because if theres someone living and breathing who actually believes what you just said then the world is sadder place.

o.k. I’m willing to admit that I’m wrong. Maybe form doesn’t really matter if you’re that big. Just for my own learning (no really) can someone explain to me how his form is correct? Try to keep the ad hominen at a minimum.

Again his form is PERFECT for hypertrophy. Ronnie Coleman is one of the most muscular men ever. 280-290 pounds at 5’10" in contest shape, 3-4% bodyfat. His traaining career could be considered the most successful ever giving him 8 Mr. Olympia wins. Instead of crtiquing his form, because you are no where near as accomplished as him as far a physique goals. how about you learn a thing or two and realize,

A, His squat and deadlift form were spot on.

B, He doesn’t lock out his bench presses because he’s training chest it’s pointless to go the last few inches into lockout because it doesn’t work the chest nearly as much as the triceps. This also makes the movement harder.

If you need any more explaining than, I have no doubt you will not go far as a bodybuilder, or whatever you trying to do.

I don’t need anymore expaining. Point taken. I was wrong. Thanks for the education. You really don’t need to cut me down, lighten up.

NvrTooLate, Coleman explained before that one of the reasons he managed to keep his joints healthy despite lifting heavy into his 40’s is that he practices not locking out on pushing movements. And like others have said the pumps are huge when you do your reps this way.[/quote]

Thanks for the explanation. I learned something today.

OK This is all well and good. But, How many reps of cleans can they do with a kettlebell while standing on a bosu ball? That’s where the real men are made.

If my sarcasm didn’t shine threw, I was joking.

We’ve discussed this stuff before in the forum… Unfortunately, it’s one of the topics that most simply will not be able to understand until it “happens” to them.

You see a pro do rows with loose from and a beginner do cheated rows and all you see is the “loose” part. You are missing the important aspects (and it’s doubtful that trying to explain them over the internet would help here,
if you keep training hard and make a conscious effort to improve your own technique as much as the weight you’re using, then eventually you will simply think “oh shit, now I understand!” one day and there you go…
Bam! Now you know how to do BB rows and target your backthickness musculature to the maximum and how the movement of the upper body from the hip joints is part of the whole thing…

Bodybuilding can’t just be taught by articles, you have to experience things for yourself and you need to be observant.), and neither do you know what the exercise feels like to the pro by watching him do it in a video.

I’m glad you’ve been taking a large interest in my looks. You sound pretty gay even though there is nothing wrong with that. Then again if your gay you wouldn’t be going after women, so I guess you’re bi.

Again this is a bodybuilding forum, try attacking me about something relevant.

Yes my mom is spotting me, she could probably out bench you too.

Anyways, I’m done responding to your shit.

When you do get your ass kicked, and you will if you pull this shit in the real world, I hope you don’t get fucked up too bad.
