Fast food threads, video game arguments and bitching over how proportionally muscular men are...three main ingredients to a healthy neo-geo.com posting diet.

He doesn't have freakish proportions and and super-tan leathery skin, so I hate him.

Dude, you don't understand. Spike needs to masturbate to the extreme! Not to the good enough.

That shit's boring.

there is nothing attractive about someone whose veins are so jutted out it'd make a heroin junky jealous, who has leather for skin, and likely has peanuts for testicles.

That shit just isn't pleasant.

Frank Zane always looked awesome --last time I saw a photo of him, a few years ago, he was still in great shape. He kept things manageable and in proportion.

Most bodybuilders don't tan. The reason their skin looks like leather is because of the kind of oil they use before competitions or shoots. In the early days they used a very light amount of oil that was not nearly as dark. Since tanning has become more popular over the past 10 years or so the oild has gotten darker.

The thing with Arnold is his abs were pretty shitty. Even when in ultimate shape, they weren't super amazing. Still a big mother fucker without having the extended belly crap we see nowadays.

I remember reading an interview where he said his weak abs were why he'd usually pose while twisting a bit sideways to hid his bulk in that area.

I know the abs are also Ronnie Coleman's weakness, but he was perfect everywhere else (at least with voters); I assume he would just binge too much when he was off season.

I also remember the first time I saw Pumping Iron and realized how shortFranco Columbu actually was. His proportions were so good you never noticed in still shots.

I read somewhere that Ronnie Coleman doesn't even train abs, but they come naturally from everything else he does.

For a.... body builder?

IMO the dude's beasting pretty hard, especially for someone who's not obviously on every steroid available

that's how it was for me (back in the day)

strangely enough my abs were one of my best attributes, and they just formed from doing other exercises, i guess it's called your core for a reason

Am I the only one that thinks those people look like giant apple fritters with heads?

They're all gross.

None of them had it right.

A total lack of balance.

The focus on one aspect neglects the others.

Speed, Endurance, Strength, Power, and Flexibility.

The harmonious balance of these five are the true essence of physical fitness.

Much respect to those that achieve perfection in one field or another but I'm far more impressed by someone who can balance all five of these aspects into everyday living than I am by someone who focuses/perfects on one or two aspects.

What's the difference between Strength and Power

Strength is the maximum amount of force in a certain movement; which would be like a 1-rep max bench press or squat.

Power is the ability to generate force quickly; which would be how hard you can throw a punch/kick or how high you can jump or how efficiently you can tackle.

I highly recommend a 2008 documentary called "Bigger, Stronger, Faster: The Side Effects of Being American" I got it from TPB in like 30 min. Anyone who grew up in the 80's can totally identify with this family and their hereos. I know i did.
*and does anyone trustworthy have clen?* pm me.
