YOU CALL YOURSELF A BODYBUILDER?

[D.L. 5]

Whats your point?

yo chick wat is ur opinion on frank sepe's statement: "if u can't see your top 4 abs YOU ARE NOT A BODYBUILDER. You are a fat guy that lifts weights"

i agree with it. he made it years ago in musclemag in response to a fan question.

[Chick]

I generally agree, except that using the term "bodybuilder" for anyone who lifs weights is ludicrious....

There are different types of bodybuilders...pro's, amateurs, people who "bodybuild", etc....

[Camel Jockey]

Nope.

[shiftedShapes]

Yes. I introduce myself as Alexander the Great Champion Bodybuilder.

oh boy, if only this were true.  I can't even imagine the reactions that you would get.

[shiftedShapes]

Im embarrased to say im a bodybuilder because im too small 

I basically agree with you here, shirted and unpumped I just look thin.  I imagine the same is true for you.

[christinafitness]

The bodybuilders I know are usually very positive people.
On this board everybody seems to be very negative about anything.
That might add to the negativity towards bodybuilding.

This topic has been abused in the past.  It'll eventually come down to competitive and noncompetitive bbs.   Competitors only believe you're a "bb" if you compete.   Noncompetitors who still weight train, diet, supplement, use, etc...feel differently.    Personally, I think it comes down to lookin the part, but I've met some huge cornfed motherfvckers that are built like tanks, never diet and could be mistaken for bbs.   Who's right?   Eh, who cares?

STOP BEING SO HUMBLE. YOU LOOK GREAT. RIPPED TO THE BONE

[MikeThaMachine]

I usually say I "bodybuild" or I "Train like a bodybuilder" and follow up with "I hope to compete in blah blah blah years" or "by the time I am 25yrs old".


BTW I also explain I want to compete naturally for my first time and decide after I compete whether or not I want to try out steroids.

I havn't run into too many people like that, I work at a small gym.

i didnt even run into this guy at the gym lol. i hadnt seen him in ages, and then he starts talking bout he's rejoining the gym, then how he is competetive and no matter what he will eventually outlift me and get bigger than me and also this rubbish about his genetics.

after this final insult, i said well let me show u my calves so u get an idea about muscle. and he tried to diss me before seeing them, i showed them, he dissed them and said man mine are bigger. then i force him to show his (he refused) and they had nothing and i said he needs a reality check.

then he changes the topic saying: yeah your calves are big but what can they do? how practical are they? do they have any use? arnold schwarzenegger might be big but is he athletic.

i said dont change the topic, im into bodybuilding, we were talking about muscle growth.

all this rubbish, and he is the one who asked me for advice.

call me cynical but i think i had a right to put him in his place and then show he is an idiot!

Convince them to work chest with you.. Load up the bar and don't spot 'em and viola!  Like 3 plates to crush the fucks. They always do it with 2 spotters, so just unrack the weight for them and let it drop and walk away.

Okay, that's not practical, but don't you wish you could do that sometime to annoying, small and know it all assholes?

[Croatch]

No, because bodybuilder usually equals steroid abuser, sadly enough.  When the roid topic comes up though, I usually rip on users and carry on about how most people can't do much naturally, like myself..hahah
