For once 2 of the most ripped competitors to grace modern day bodybuilding stages are active on the boards and posting preview pics before their shows and seem to be in the practice of using the board response to help fuel their motivation. With us they are achieving things not previously seen with the human body. They have 2 additional things in common...they are 2 of the friendliest, most helpful individuals to be encountered amongst the active sea of bodybuilding board members.
It is my opinion that these guys are doing more to legitimitize the internet as the hottest bodybuilding medium in existence than anyone else right now, and I want to give them due props.
-
They are humble guys too and have the support of the fans.
-
those 2 pics are truly amazing.
Both are ripped to bone, but in a sense Alex A is "100x" more shredded than other guy... make sense? You can slide a credit card thru the striations in alex's outer quad..
-
Epic string of chili peppers lights.
Both guys looking amazing.

Yeah 2 different looks altogether if you ask me but they are each riding the pinnacle of achievement in their respective categories. Also note that each of their stories is pretty much playing out concurrently, which I find to be a bit ironic given the rarity of the ability to harness positive energy from the internet.
-
well said Mcfarland.

100 pct agree and both are great in there own right,other factors are involved in seperating the two,but all in all both truly are very good at getting ready for a show.props.
-
how much MORE ripped can one get than alex is in that pic? I mean he has paper thin skin, but can u get it more shredded than that?
-
wow
very impressive
good luck to both of them

no,thats him to me in being stage ready and he had a few wks to go at that point,he admits a few errors towards the end,and his stage color washed out that insane conditioning :-\

Good job taking credit for sitting on your fat ass and doing nothing. I bet your favorite football team couldn't win without your critical contribution from the lounge chair. Achieve something for yourself, loser.

Ha ha nah that was good. But seriously, Jrod's 2 weeks out and Alex just crossed his 13 week-out mark so let's stay tuned...it's about to get real good I have a feeling. ;D

I've met with J last year and talked to Alex many times.
Both are humble passionate guys with Iron will to come in the best shape of their lives every show.
True Warriors.

Humility. What a joke of a "virtue".
Then of course you must realize that you represent the polar opposite of these two. It'll be interesting indeed!
-

Quite an ironic comment coming from you.
How's your Jeffersonian obsession going?
-
Humility. What a joke of a "virtue".
Brutal jealousy.
-
Two good guys.

I am a Burrite my dear Alex. Of course you probably need a refresher in American History to know what that is.
what is Burrite ?

Adam began his "Mr. Getbig Push" this week by proclaiming that no one believing in God is intelligent and that military enlistees are even more dumb. I love it. ;D
-
I`d actually classify myself more of a Sinclairian with Debsonain tendencies.
you are a slave!

Adam, didn't you used to work for a Defense contractor and "invested" in the same sector after 9/11?
-

that's just common sense though.

Words not from my mouth. Show me where I claimed that Military enlistees are dumber than the Religious?
Adding to the legend are we?

i am like kunta kente with frederick douglas tendencies.

I know I'll get the stock 'You're a fag and see it like that cuz u like tha cock' reply ..but there is something almost totally homosexual about this picture. I am not sure why it is so much 'gayer than' most other pictures I've seen on here but it just doesn't look right. I would be embarrassed for anyone other than people into bodybuilding to see me look at this. If someone had his shit on their HD, most people would think 'queer as fuck'.
Someone please post a picture of a nude women as a riposte to this gentleman in a pink thong

I pulled out of General Dynamics this week and transferred it to Boeing.
being now down in San Diego gave me a lot of insights on the sector.
I would say it's smart move. I would also recommend AM General and Raytheon.
-
J-Rod and Alex A are the two greatest bodybuilders that post on this message board.
-
OK then equally as dumb? ;D
why don't you enlist in the Army? >:(
-

Adam can make any statement that he chooses, he has done nothing in his life outside of the norm of a worker bee.
some may even argue that he is an embarrasment to his jewish ancestrial heritage!!
-

Some of the greatest minds and men served in the military. No idea where are you pulling this nonsense from. I hold many in high esteem.

lets keep this focused on the above said bbers,and not turn this into an adonis themed takeover,with pictures of martin van buren,francis scott key,and other rogues he idolizes and paraphrases.
-
I also picked up Texas Instruments last week and dumped International Paper. The IP stock made a few thousand in about 2 weeks which was pretty lucky.
TI is an excellent choice I wish I would've gone in a while back.
-
Some of the generals are great men but that the little cannon fodder grunts on the ground are burger flippers with guns. These guys are nearly all losers who failed school, drop-out, go fight wars - badly and lose most of them whilst making all of us look like retards.
Then, when one dies, we all start crying like it's a greater tragedy than the people DYING in our own country because they can't afford health insurance. A solider dies, boo hoo, that's his fucking job. Stay in school and don't sign on the line if you can't do the job.

Looking impressive there! If anyone wants to make money, watch Alex. Judging by that alone, its clear that he knows what he is doing.

How can you not like the Red Fox of Kinderhook, The American Talleyrand, Old Kinderhook?

Forgive me if I misinterpreted you Adam.

Forgive me if I misinterpreted you Adam.
No. Forgive me for leading you to create a legend!
The fault, dear Mcfarland is not in the stars, but in but ourselves.

My Trollance is done here. I apologize. Carry on gentleman.
Looking good Adam.

I agree and for that I am most embarrassed.

I must do better in remembering this poem:
Rudyard Kipling
If
If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you;
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or, being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or, being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise;
If you can dream - and not make dreams your master;
If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with triumph and disaster
And treat those two imposters just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to broken,
And stoop and build 'em up with wornout tools;
If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breath a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on";
If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with kings - nor lose the common touch;
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you;
If all men count with you, but none too much;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run -
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man my son!
-
They photocopied that poem and handed it out to everyone on the bus on a school trip when I was in high school, and they had changed the last line to read, "you'll be a person, my child." Having enjoyed Kipling's unaltered masterpiece before, I was compelled to point out the change but was told that the original version was bad since it was sexist. My rebuttal, which wasted no time in coming to the point, was to whip out my cock and give each of the ladies present a sizeable mushroom bruise on the forehead by which to remember the lesson.

I honestly don't think it's any coincidence that the two guys with the most impressive physiques are also two of the most decent people on the board. I consider myself a pretty decent guy but I am still very critical of many on here and I believe that to be evidence of my flaws. I believe a superior physique should represent a pure headspace and these two guys are clearly very close to that. In this way bodybuilding could be considered a religion for some.
Both men step on stage, who wins?
Which physique of the two do you prefer?
I honestly can`t answer either question.
