Bodybuilders bodybuild, fighters fight.  Now that this is out of the way.....

Certain arts lend themselves to being more practical than others.  Arts wherein the practicioners practice against a live resisting opponent tends to be more practical.  In Judo, Jiujitsu, boxing, muay thai, kyoshukin, where you are sparring full contact, I highly doubt you will have a BB or a high level guy having to ask you to "put your arm out like this..."  They will take it, or set you up where your arm is there for the taking.  That being said, mastering a particular discipline or range is no indicator of combat effectiveness.  There is a NAIA wrestler in our academy with little to no BJJ training who can dominate because of his athletic ability and "heavy hips."  If he were allowed to punch, he'd be hell on wheels.  Although I can tap him, he, if he were allowed to strike while on the ground would be able to KO me if it were permitted.  The point of MMA is to show that combat sports has evolved, and you need to be competent in all ranges and master at one (where you can default to when in trouble.).  And size and strength do play a role, no matter what people may say, extreme size that inhibits athleticism is useless. 

ding ding ding!!!


I make over $500k a year and live very well.  Never said it wasn't real money.

Hahahaha, sure you do..and while you're at it you're a leer jet flying cage fighting playmate screwing cage fighter, right ?

Why is extreme size that inhibits athleticism useless if it provides some sort of satisfaction for the person?

How many of us need athleticism in modern life anyway? I don't know about you but its for me to play a "sport"...

Carrying extreme muscle which has no function is as useful as carrying around 30lbs extra of fat e.g

Why be 260 with X amount of strength

When you can be 230 and be just as strong - that 30lbs other than personal satisfaction is useless.

If you're an IFBB pro (which the title and thread is about)...it's certainly not useless.

What IS useless....is the topic

It's a retarded as saying that an MMA fightrers skills are useless on a BB stage

Fedor would walk up KO you in a second take the mic off you, provide an entertaining and humourous seminar with interactive demonstrations then take the winners cheque and donate it to a good cause.

And the whole IFBB could do nothing about it. In fact the competitors would applause and laugh at his interesting anicdotes

I personally don't believe that you need to be a trained MMA fighter or juiced up bodybuilder to mask some sort of insecurity.  More important than anything, is your sense of confidence and mindset.  Instead, I am refering to the juiced up meatheads who walk around thinking they're tough guys (99% of bodybuilders).  Sorry, guys...you ain't shit.

I guess what I don't get is the "you ain't shit" part of this. Because in what respect is that person not shit? If you have no interest in fighting then potentially not being a super-hard fist machine doesn't matter because you might be good at real life, i.e. have a personality, interesting hobbies, nice girlfriend whatever.

I take your point about it being lame to walk around with imaginary lat syndrome, or to project a false image of aggresive fighting ability, but only because I think anyone who actively looks for a fight is only fighting themselves, or their dad when he used to beat the crap out of them as a child.

Ha ha!  Your paycheck sucks!  You work in an industry that dwindles by the day because MOST people think its a joke.  Sad thing is, that you actually think you make good money...lol.

Guys like you can never make it in the real business world, because the minute you walk into an interview, board room or whatever, it is instantly known that you are a drug-dealing felon.    

Now not to sound like a holier-than-thou guy, but makes me laugh when people rip into the bodybuilding world, when they have come to a sight called "getbig.com" about bodybuilding and actively joined up, and chosen to spend half their free time on here. It must hold some interest for you eh Spinney?  ;D

LOL.  Chick claims bodybuilders are athletes and to substantiate his point he talks about his golf & bowling game....LMAO! 

Sure bodybuilders are athletes.  Check out Phil Health injuring himself while performing an astonishing feat of athleticism (1:40)....lunging to the side bwahahah!



And here is that "pudgy and lazy" BJ Penn, the UFC LIGHTWEIGHT champ, showing his athletisism.



Bottom line, if you want to spend your life building gobs of useless muscle, that's fine.  Just understand, that when it's all said and done, all that muscle gets you nothing.  No money.  No fame.  No health.  No nothing.  Worse yet, A 155LB "pudgy" twerp like BJ Penn can dance with your girl, and you can't do shit about it ;D

Athleticism comes into play, and BJ clearly has it.  Musclebound juice monkeys like Chick are as fragile as a kitten.  Look at Phil Health.  Laid out flat from lunging to the side...pathetic ::)

It seems to happen often with bodybuilders who are dehydrated and on diuretics.  Again, another example of what bodybuilders do to "look" big & tough when in fact they are on the verge of collapsing.

My goodness Chick.  You've been around long enough to remember all sorts of great incidents like Paul Dillet dropping to the ground, in the middle of a contest because he was twitching cramping mess.  He had to be carried off stage...lol.  Or how about Mohamed Benaziza actually going into cardiac arrest because of the amount of diuretics he had in his system.  At any local show, you're bound to see at least one moron to locks up and has to limp off stage or cut his routine short because of cramping.  Are you really that delusional ???

Ive also seen just as many NFL players lock up during games, pitches break their arm while throwing a ball, runners dehydrated, gymnasts running into the horse at full speed, etc, etc...

No shit!  They're cramping up from doing athletic events, not from standing on stage in their underwear.  Ha hahahah!!  You're the stereotypical meathead with no brains....lol.
