Just the opposite.Bodybuilders always disrespect powerlifters.Just on this site alone you get the "hes fat" "hes cheating by wearing a shirt" etc etc etc.The of cource,you have the lying factor,where bodybuilders lie about their numbers.Like when Johnnie Jackson claims he can squat 815 with ZERO gear,but somehow manages only an 821 in full gear.Thats an obvious lie.So its bodybuilders who are by far more disrespectfull.
maybe his gear's faulty.
seriously, powerlifters, olympic weightlifters, bbers, strongmen, drug users, wannabe drug users, drug users that say they're natural, drug users that say they're wannabe drug users, ...ok, getting a bit carried away, but the point i'm making is that all of the above have been known to bitch about each other.
stems from a combination of elitism and insecurity.
shame really, because if they united all would prosper.
i think it all started with bob hoffman and joe weider, but that's a story for the history section.
