I hate to tell you, but this pic is def. photoshopped.
As for the young freak, he certainly has a lot of talent, nevermind the steroids, if he ever took them.
If he’s into reps, then these thousands upon thousands of repetitions will be WAY worse for his (joint)health then any average steroid abuse he might have experienced at his tender age.
In ten to fifteen years, that’ll be another question.

There are plenty of pics floating around the web with distended guts like that. It used to be pretty common, and I notice it in some of the older guys who are doing whatever they can to turn pro. It’s not photoshopped I’m afraid.

I was a guest teacher for a day at a high school English class in southern China last year. Towards the end of the class, one of the students asked me to tell him something about America. I said ‘Kids in America go to school for maybe 8 hours. They rarely do more than an hour of homework a day, until they’re in high school, when they might do two or three. Weekends are generally free. ‘Weekends’ include Saturday’
The kids just stared at me uncomprehendingly. Their school weeks start at 75 hours, if you include weekends.[/quote]
hahahahahaha. 2 or 3 hours a day of homeworks in high school.
in my entire high school I didnt open my books one time outside of class time. If I had studied 1 hour per day in high school I would have finished it in 2 years. There is just not enough material to study that much or you are just retarded. And yes I was in a competitive private school for ‘‘smart kid’’. I didnt have great grades but I wasnt a bad student.
This is so bullshit I cant believe it.
I want the people who studied only 1 real hours a day in high school to manifest themselves
my sister is 12 and spends at least an hour and a half on homework. i spent at least 2-3 hours not doin hw, and maybe 30 mins doin it, but i also had friends who did a helluva lot. the thing is they grade hw, and if i didnt do some of it my grades would suffer, so i fail to comprehend your point? are you einstein or somethin?
Really?
Who’s the we you are talking about that definitely gave that up?
If you really believe that, have a chimp do your taxes. Just a little genetic difference but it seems to have some effect on intelligence.

You don’t need 2-3 hours or else you are picking your nose instead of focusing. Sitting in front of your books does not equate productive studying. I am talking about studying before an exam not about homework. I don’t think your teacher gives you 3 hours graded work to do each evening. In my whole high school I never had a graded homework that more that 1 hour outside school. And I dont wanna brag (like if it is really important) I went the to best school of my province, it is just what it is.
My point is to stop kidding yourself. You dont study 2-3 hours each night of studying in high school, far from that. I dont know wtf those chinese students are doing 75 hours a week. At this rate you get your phd when you are 18.
When you are a kid it doesnt count. When you can’t remember what someone just said and cant count on your fingers it is not the same thing.
or maybe you are not good at school. it is a reality some people live

I believe intelligence is a mix of the environment, hard work and genetic
but who gives a fuck anyway and is it really that important

Can someone explain to me how you can become so big and be so damn cut and gain in strength and size?

Most of the pictures and video of him that you see are probably during weeks leading up to a competition or during his “show season”. If you look up all of his pictures, you can see that he carries much more mass and fat during the off-season, as does any bodybuilder of his size and strength.
I have seen this Kid over the last couple years and think he will be Mr Olympia, I also think there is not a drop of Synthol in his drop which is very rare these days.

Stop basing everything on your crappy life experiences… you don’t know how his school functions or the schools anyone else attended… you’re just talking out of your ass. Its not our fault you slacked ass to just pass(sense you said your grades weren’t any good) or that whatever school you went to was shit.
Those Chinese students are becoming better at what they do compared to their classmates because there is a billion of them and only a small number are lucky enough to go to school… so they become proficient at everything because the competition is ridiculous. We were putting on a concert for one of the higher preforming schools(it was supposed to be some cultural trade shit between an American school and Chinese school)… Almost every single one of the students left to return to class and their studies except for maybe 10.
and when I said “we gave that up a few decades ago” I was making a very vague reference to eugenics… didn’t expect anyone to catch it… just gave me a chuckle.

yeah right…as soon as you start insulting me I shouldnt respond but I will anyway
the guy lives in Ontario, Canada. Teachers don’t give 3hours homework each day.
And of course it is not your fault to what school I go… I dont know which point you are trying to do.
Tell me with all your great life experience if the students works so hard and it is so competitive do they finish their studies a couple of years in advance?

Good at Math because of genetics???!!!
WTF are you talking about bro.
Alright, if you’re talking about high level mathematics (the type most people would have trouble understanding even in layman’s terms) fine, I get you. Perhaps genetics would play a factor there. Einstein was perhaps ‘genetically gifted’. But he was also obsessive about his work, willing to sacrifice time, joy, and companionship for it. By most accounts, so were Newton, and Mozart. The ‘greats’ tend to be the one’s with the most dedication to their field.
Call me crazy, but I’ve always thought genetics was overrated. Sure no amount of training and food will allow me to look like this 19 year old, but I’ll be damned if I cannot attain his level of muscularity and leanness if I tried. It might take me more time, and it might come harder, but it will get done. The same goes for any endeavor.
Genetics too often gets used as an excuse for failure, or lack of success. I’ll never be that big because my genetics suck, I’ll never be as smart because my genetics suck.
And yes, Gattaca is one of my favorite films

Some people simply just “get it” easier than others. I really never do homework, and start to revise only 1 day before tests etc., and still get pretty good grades. I’ve always been lucky in the way that I can grasp a concept rather quickly, and understand the whole picture while the details falls into place by themselves… several other people in class take notes all the time and do all their homework, obsess over details, but still get worse grades than me… You do what you have to do get your grades, which for me is most of the time very little.
I don’t want to come across as trying to brag or anything like that, I believe intelligence comes in many different forms. Someone who is hopeless at mathematics can be a genius when it comes to music or art.
