Bodybuilding is using resistance training (and whatever else) in order to cause maximum muscle hypertrophy of all muscle groups/bodyparts; may or may not be for the purpose of competition.

Now tear me up...

ray's definition is better... by yours i guess frank zane isn't a bodybuilder, nor anyone who ever held back and stopped shy of 10g/week anabolics, as that wouldn't really be the pursuit of "maximum" muscle hypertrophy?

Lol,after his idol-Blackmore

Im assuming thats your rig?
I sold off all my gear, thinking of getting a 5150 or 6505 for my amp when I finish school, but I always found them a little... muddy I guess, for my playing style. My last amp was a VHT pitbull, which had excellent clarity even at ridiculous gain levels.

I ran a Maxon 808 overdrive with the gain turned down and the level turned up quite a bit, with a Jackson RR1 w/EMG's (81 and 85), in the pitbull with a Marshall vintage celestion loaded cab.

One of them, yeah. I own a whack of guitars, amps and effects. My scratch track here was recorded with my POD direct into the pc. Actually used my PRS instead of the Mustaine V too..lol. I modded my 5150 ii and run through the usual eq/tube screamer/compression combo when I use it.

Buddy of mine just picked up a Hughes & Kettner that just kills.

Ah, I never really used an EQ/TS/Compressor together... Ive used a comp before when I was running my rack setup... towards the end of my gigging days I just used the TS in front. Im assuming the compressor/eq used with the TS gives you that more balanced, flat tone across range than running just the TS alone?

Absolutely. The eq gives you a lot of control over your sound as well. These I run into the front end and then I run all my other coloring effects through the loop.

I dont care if you like my definition or not....but everyone who touches a weight, with the hope of putting on some muscle is not a bodybuilder. Just because I touch a basketball, with the hope of putting the ball in the basket, does not make me a basketball player.

Would anyone consider a person who goes to the gym 3 days a week and only trains chest and arms a bodybuilder? I don't.

Trying to be a bodybuilder and being a bodybuilder are 2 different things. If you have to tell someone you are a bodybuilder....you arent one.

Have a great day! Rock & Roll!!!

Yes they are, especially if they manage to build some muscle and build up their bodyparts.

Bodybuilder = Someone who is building up his/her body.

Umm...ok....so I guess you consider that Jersey Shore Situation a bber?

[MORTALCOIL]

Shredders are impressive when you're a teenager. But fuck, I find it incredibly boring now. I'd rather listen to John Abercrombie all day long. It's way harder to play music than to play just notes.

No, he's a girl.
