Title: Why is there this myth that just because you lift weights you become a bad ass?
Post by: MoralMan on January 08, 2009, 02:06:30 AM
An example being an episode of the SImpsons where Marge started using weights and went in Moes Bar and beat up everyone including 5 sailors at once!I know its a cartoon but it reflects what people think in real life! Dont mess with him/her, he lifts weights!

How does lifting weights give you automatic deadly fighting ability!??!

1. Your physical capabilities improve.
2. Your confidence in your physical capabilities improve with it.
3. Your ego goes up as you realize your new capabilities are increasing relative to the rest of the population.

FACT: Lifting weights does make you more of a bad ass.

(Joking... It is a funny myth, though. ;))

doesn't make you more of a "bad ass" or a better fighter, fighting is fighting, lifting weights is lifting weights, if you don't have the nuts to just punch someone in the face without arguing, pushing, shoving, etc. no amount of weightlifting will give it to you.

I agree.. I back down from even looking into the eyes of anyone wearing any fight affiliated clothing regardless of size or age.  It is VERY intimidating.

He's lied about countless things on here. Let's tally up a few of them. He's claimed to have cage fought for 20 years, lifts 2x a day, clubs 6 nights a week, doesn't average 20 hours a day on here, claims to have fucked 2 women in the last 2 years. That's just a few of them.

why wouldnt it make you a bette fighter? you think strength has nothing to do with fighting ability ?

lets say a dude has a fighting skill of 6 out of 10. then he lifts weights and now he is much stronger. same fighting skill, bu stronger. doesnt this make him a better fighter? i certainly think so.

It doesnt make him a Better striker hence skill.

It makes him punch harder with the skill he already have. SO its a deffenition question..



anyway, How the cock up your ass work going?

you develop muscles.

people see muscles, and get affraid, start to fear you and your reactions.

you have no muscles at all? nobody respects you the least nowadays.

Like nobody respects ugly/fat looking girls, only good looking thin with huge breast ones.



period.

Muscles are a pre emptive measure.  People think if you're muscular, you'd be harder to take down. 

Unfortunately, I'm yet to see any proof that any amount of muscle will keep you from falling down like a bitch if you're punched in the temple. 

Two guys who have the same fight level = the more muscular/ in shape one always wins.

Marge was roid-raging, that is why she went nuts and kicked ass. Not because she just lifted weights.
