Title: McGrath - Why hasn't he done better?
Post by: donrhummy on April 22, 2008, 08:07:58 AM
How is he wasting his potential? He should be a top 5 guy every contest:

Correctamundo!

McGrath looks great IMO but when he turns to the rear in contests he loses a lot of quality - so many of the compulsories involve the back and he gets marked down as a result.

I'm a fan of Frank, but once again, he's backed out of another show.  A few months ago, he was saying he was training for the NY Pro.  I believe he said this in an interview with Special Ed.   And surprise, surprise, his name is not on the list AGAIN!   For a guy with so much potential, I'm beginning to think that he's just a waste of skin.

Frank's jaw is pretty ideal. Even scowling he could probably get a chick to blush.

I don't understand why people/judges think that if guy "A" beats guy "B" on pecs, abs/waist, legs, arms, shoulders and guy "B" wins on lats/back, that guy "B" wins. An awesome back/ass coupled with a gut should never beat being amazing everywhere else.


Who looks better: Cutler or this:
(http://contests.ironmanmagazine.com/~photos/744/Men/744kbo375.jpg)

Sure his back's not as good (it's not bad though) but he still looks better (and his waist-to-shoulder ratio destroys cutler).

Yes, I'll leave it to the retards on here to set up straw men to attack rather than actually bothering to read any of the posts I wrote.  I shouldn't expect the average getbig member to understand them anyway.

I always wondered why it is I get through to people who go to university or who post on philosophy discussion boards, rather than on getbig.  *light bulb over the head moment*.  Then it hit me - maybe because the average getbigger has an 85 IQ and doesn't have the ability to understand anyway?  DOH!  Yeah, no shit it's hard for me to get through to people who are as dumb as a rock.  This would be the equivalent of teaching predicate calculus to a child - not going to happen.

As for McGrath, I think he fears competition.  There is no reason why he couldn't compete in a show like the Ironman and at least place in the top 15.  He would gradually improve from there, but my best guess is that he is either lazy or uninformed in terms of how to go about promoting himself in the industry or planning for a proper competitive strategy, or he has a fear of testing the waters in the pro ranks.

I'm not sure what the deal is with Frank.  Milos wanted to train the guy but for whatever reason that never happened.  Then he was working with a guy from Canada who isn't really well known yet but knows his stuff.  A friend of mine is trained by the guy and when I asked about Frank I was told that they were no longer working together and was given the impression that Frank just wouldn't listen to any advice.  Shame really, was looking forward to seeing him at the NY Pro.

That's one of the better photos I've seen of Franks back. So that helps.
The person with a better back usually wins because it's such a big body part. Not just in terms of placing/judging, but the size of "real estate" it takes up on the body. It's the biggest, in terms of "square footage." The quads are a close second. But since it's such a big part, I guess the judges would rather have a bodybuilder that's 70% with a great back, than another guy that is 90% perfection with a weak back. Not saying it's right, just an observation that's all.

Frank came off really arrogant when I talked to him. Maybe it was just a bad day but it seems he doesn't give a shit about too much. The guy doesn't promote himself, doesn't make himself available to other bber's(posting on forums,keeping an updated website)... hell he's the only guy on the animal pak roster that doesn't post on there. Even the sponsored amateurs post on there daily throughout the forum as well as Q&A threads.

I also don't believe his 600lbs for reps on deads... he did 405 for 10 on his animal back dvd recently so he might be able to squeeze out one.

1. Does Anti-matter exist?

    Yes.
 

2  What is Anti-matter?

   Anti-matter is a substance composed of atoms made up of elementary particles that have the mass
   and charge of electrons, protons, or neutrons, their counterparts in ordinary matter, but for which
   the charge is opposite in sign.  These colletively called anti particles.
 

3. Where can I find Anti-matter?

    Theorized to exist in galaxies made completely of antimatter.  However, viewed in the context of the
    entire universe, it's equalivant to 1/100 parts.
 

4. Who discoverd Anti-matter?

    P.A.M. Dirac is credited with the discovery of Antimatter.
 

5. When was it discovered?

    Sometime in the 1930's.
 

6.  What happens when Antimatter and matter meet?

    Annihilation.

    Matter and antimatter cannot coexist at close range for more than a small fraction of a
    second because they annihilate each other with release of large quantities of energy. It
    has been suggested that some distant galaxies may be composed entirely of antimatter.

7.  Can you produce Antimatter?

    Yes.  It is scientists have discovered that antiparticles can be produced in high speed
    collisions.

    In fact, the first Anti atom was produced in 1995 by European scientists.
 

8.  In a large amounts?

    Not yet.
 

9.  What's the big deal then?

    When annihilation occurs there a tremendous amount of energy is produced.  If humans
    could harness this potential source of energy unthinkable things could happen. For
    example, the cleanest of energy sources, fuel for space exploration.
 


We have an interest in common man!
