Too busy devoting their time to sports that pay them millions of dollars.

Anyone who saw Mark Henry at the '02 Arnold Strongman would disagree.

But isn't that like saying all black golfer are great because Tiger is?  One example doesn't carry much weight....no pun intended.


I just think they don't focus on them, pure and simple.  If they did, they would represent at least 50% of the field in most events.

It to has to do with accesibility and resources!

Soccer is popular in Latin america because it is cheap to play, coaching is not required (early levels)  and more can made if you are very good.

Same rules for basketball, track and field. Whereas golf and  tennis coaching and equipment is everything.

Stength sports == $00.00 == 0 popularity

yeah but that's real power... at his bodyweught, 160lbs, you have to lift almost 4 times your bodyweight without any equipment to be able to compete in the olympics... that's "power"... that's athletisism. They do gym only to support their actual and REAL sport which is throwing spears.

NFL = no strength required ::)

Boxing = no strength required ::)

AAron and **Bonds** are home run Kings but.... no strength required ::)

You see where I'm going with this right?

Powerlifting is just not that appealing to most of us so you guys can have it.
Now shut the fuck up before we take that too! ;D

Yes, there is pros making way more in bodybuilding...

That's why I don't get it when folks here complain how little pros are paid... No point comparing them to F1 drivers or something like that...

only the top1 or top2 mr.olympia contenders make that much... but we're talking about 30k-100k from the biggest shows in bodybuilding and that's it.

powerlifting isn't the ultimate strength/power... these powerlifters just lift to lift even more... if they would throw a snow ball they would probably tear their shoulder, or if they went running their ankle would probably hurt... is that power?

I think olympic athletes have power  comparable to a racing motorcycle, but powerlifters/bodybuilders in the form of a tractor... two differend things.
