...yet it's been firmly established that bodybuilders are not athletes. So then, what is Chick the "rep" of ???
-
he is the IFBB damage control rep.
this is a paid position which requires him to spend time on getbig and defend the IFBB from all the accusations of contest fixing, drug dealing, g4p and other schmoe activities.
-
a more appropriate term is "Pageant Contestant's Rep."
-
Reach for those stars.

men in thongs rep, its only gay if you want it to be ::)

I think it's pretty clear that bodybuilders are nothing more than male beauty pageant contestants...
Yes they have to train hard, extreme diet, take massive amounts of drugs and such, and perhaps one could argue that they have to train harder and diet cleaner than a professional athlete like a football player… but saying that bodybuilding is a SPORT, is pretty silly and I disagree that it is.
I think an athlete is someone that plays a sport… and since I do not think that bodybuilding is a SPORT, I therefore do not think being a bodybuilder makes you an athlete.
So, are you an athlete because you lift weights? Depends who you talk to I guess… I find semantic debates like this pretty silly… but that’s my 2 cents.

I just like to ask thought-proving questions that generate discussion. It appears that most don't believe bodybuilders are athletes, so should Bob's title be called Athletes Rep? Maybe it should be Pageant Competitor's Rep.

The only athletes in BB are the sponsors....when I last check I seen them running...
-
I find it funny that Professional Bodybuilding is the only profession that 80% or more have to have a second profession to support their first profession.
-
Bob and his brethren can refer to themselves as "athletes" if they wish but they ain't fooling nobody.

i find it equally amusing that "Professional Bodybuilding" is the only job that REQUIRES you to take illegal drugs and thereby break the law.

I dislike bodybuilding as much as the next guy....but I never did get the incessant uproar about the term "athlete."
Seriously, who gives a fuck? Can people really care about it so much that they start MANY threads debating the appropriateness of the term?
Honestly, with all the gems bbing gives us to mock, people come back to this one time and time again? None of us are professional "athletes" in any sport, so why the fuck do people care if someone is worthy of the term? There is a ton of solid mockable shit about bodybuilding, and Mindspin starts another thread about the term "athlete?"
