I concur with you right there...he has the BEST combination of size, aesthetics, symmetry etc...of any IFBB pro out there...thats why I sling so much siht about him on these forums...it's because it bugs me he is throwing his potential and is going to end his career which is...no less than astonishing and impressive...but he should go out on top. He's too damn good to let it waste over text messages, bitches/ho's and the drama scene at Gold's-Venice.

 Good debate, body...seriously. No mudslinging, no b.s.  Just good old fashioned healthy debate between two BB fans. Holla!

Yayer!!!!   Thanks bro

I can see Blockhead's way of thinking towards this actually.Let's say you want to do the treadmill for say a 6mph speed.While talking on the cell phone you could lose concentration & the speed will drop to let's say 3-4 mph.The speed has dropped & so has the fat loss ability of the extra 2-3 mph.

That is a situation that would totally change the dynamics of the argument.

And you would lose more fat at 3 - 4 mph than 6. Low intensity cardio cuases one to lose only bodyfat. High would induce more "weight" but that would include muscle and water. Hence why most BB are at a brisk walk on the treadmill.

I think the reverse is true- cardio productivity would either be unaffected, or even improved, by using headphones, as opposed to "brutal concentration".

Why?  Cause when you're bored and plodding away, your mind is going to travel to your worries of the day.  You're going to think about what's next (natural when doing tedious thigns).  This leads to elevated stress levels (as most of us face stressors in everyday life) and higher cortisol levels. 

When you're zoned out with some B.I.G. or some jigga rattlig your ears, you're not thinking about work crisii or relationship woes.  you're focusing on money hoes and clothes- all the runner knows.  You're already taxing your CNS with the cardio, so let your mind be at ease.
