You continually post the same hunched over MM poses, occasionally with bad lighting, or photoshopped edges (yes, we all notice) but then get annoyed if anyone requests shots from all angles (quarter turns), whining about how you’re not a bodybuilder.

Also, about this, there are side shots, back shots and legs in my Indigo log.

I am a “recreational bodybuilder” who does not care about “quarter turns”. I have more than enough pictures for someone to see what I have built from all angles.

I also haven’t even logged in since last Saturday so I am simply responding now to what you wrote.

LOL at not thinking this is berating.

I know more than just “biology”…but when I say I am a doctor, all of you complain.

That medical knowledge makes me an authority n how the human body works…not just biology.

Now that you know this, why avoid giving me credit for that?

We study nutrition in school also. I have also worked as a personal trainer.

To be fair, some of the least knowledgeable people I have ever met when it comes to weight training are doctors.
Not that this takes away from you but saying “I’m a doctor” doesn’t mean anything with regards to bodybuilding.
How many threads have we seen on this site where someone goes to the doctor and they tell them to stop having whey shakes because it is ruining their kidneys? Lol

Basic college level nutrition classes are total BS as well.
They perpetuate that same crap about average (for bodybuilders/physique orriented people, 1-2g per LB) protein intake being bad for you.
Eating fats are bad
Blah blah blah.

Again, not to take anything away from YOU because I would venture to say that almost every single person on this site with a college degree probably took nutrition classes thinking it would be interesting because of how much nutrition is a part of the Iron game.
Obviously, most of us were severely disappointed with what was actually taught lol

Anyway, back to the riveting discussion at hand.

You have posted several different photos and poses in that log.
Aren’t they 2 years or so old though?

I agree that the actual “quarter turn” pose isn’t really needed but don’t you think that the best way to properly asses a physique,besides a video, would be a set of photos with a front shot, back shot and one from each side?

A bodybuilding doctor has the best of both worlds as far as knowledge especially if he is really big.

They teach us how the body works…they do not teach BODYBUILDING.

Yeah, I studied on much higher level than “college level”.

Gee, that is why I keep mentioning the accident I was in that I am just now able to train past.

That is why the latest pics in my avatar have me looking that filled out.

Why would I need current pics to see what I built when I already did that over several years?

Trust me, when I do post full pics again, there should be visible difference. You can see that in my avatar already.

What I see is people trying to not give me credit for things I have done…which makes little sense considering my background.

Pre school → kindergarten → elementary school → middle school → high school → college
What’s after college that is “much higher level”?

In what way? Neither of them have my background in education. Yes, they both have achieved great levels in competition and deserve credit for that.

Question, why is it so hard for them to give credit?

[quote]
In the field of bodybuilding I would definitely be all ears to both those guys because they have done the full course so to speak and you have not. Don’t get all pissy because of it [/quote]

I would be all ears to ANYONE I COULD LEARN FROM who had done more than me in any field at all. That is the type of person that really advances…not the guy playing favorites.

I went to college first and majored in biology.

I then went to dental school…he level where you go on rounds and treat patients.

Undergrad and Grad - still college.

You seem to mention and draw attention to this fact more and more lately, your less frequent posting.
Are you ashamed at your post count? Are you trying to show that you dont really care too much about this forum and can take or leave it? Is your " I dont even post much " statement an attempt at aloofness when infact you NEED this forum more than anyone here!

Fifty Thousand Posts! WOW
