I would rather be stronger than weaker, you saying he was a "superior bodybuilder" is subjective as bodybuilding is a subjective industry. If he's superior, what shows has he competed and against who? I market my business everyday without marketing myself. Just like when you challenged me a while ago about my business and failed miserably. Not only did I say you logic was wrong but so did half the board who understood business.
i will make one last logical post
the two bolded sentences contradict one another, because on the one hand you say it is subjective and therefore my opinion of it is worth just as much as a judges, in the next sentence you imply that what determines who is superior in bodybuilding is how many contests they won, which makes it objective
the italicized sentence has many problems with it, first of all it's irrelevant, second you have used yourself as an example of a superior bodybuilder for the reason of strength, and if you're a strength coach then you use yourself to market your business and this can't be disputed, but third and most importantly this sentence contradicts completely your post where you state that this post

Why do you say this? Because coach, if a mechanic were to use his own car to market his business, then it became apparent that his own car is a piece of shit, it is not so much marketing as it is condemning his own business.
