Title: functional strength
Post by: Bluto on May 01, 2007, 11:08:29 AM: there's no greater feeling than to go to the gym and build a lot of strength and muscle and then use it to bang someone on the head or punch them in the face. this is what's called "functional strength"

No functional strength is when you get a flat tire with no jack and be able to lift your car high enough to change it yourself.

Title: Re: functional strength
Post by: Camel Jockey on May 01, 2007, 02:25:24 PM: How's about technique and being big?

And the bigger you are, the harder you're going to hit.. And of course technique matters, but if it's between two drunk guys at a bar with no "technique" then the bigger guy will win most of the time.

Post by: danielson on May 01, 2007, 02:37:20 PM: Jimmy is right, strength doesn't mean much when it comes to punching power. Chuck hits harder than Ted Arcidi ever could and Chuck probably cant bench over 250. When it comes to Wrestling or just "manhandling" someone, strength is kind of important.
