What's the sense of looking strong if you're not?

[whitewidow]

women! even if your just benching 305-375 they think it's so much weight.

[ProudVirgin69]

The only problem is when bodybuilders get butthurt about it because as far as I can recall, I don't see many powerlifters complaining about bodybuilders getting pussy.  All I ever see is weak ass bodybuilders posting pictures of the fattest strong guy they can find, justifying their weakness, as if the pursuit of strength will leave them with 35% bodyfat.

You say this, and yet this was posted in a thread started by a powerlifter/"strength enthusiast". 

No bodybuilder gives two shits about a powerlifter unless the powerlifter starts telling him to lift heavier or do deadlifts or some dumb advice like that.

I heard a PL'er refer to triples as "cardio" once.

Yes, because if you look great in the gym , ripped toned and tanned and you are benching 20kilo a side the girls will not be interested in you at all.
They want real men who can bench 400lbs , they dont care at all if he looks like shit.

my gym is a true bodybuild facility

everyone was looking at him like

THIS FUCKING GUY LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


he actually has deluded himself into thinking he's the strongest baddest guy in the gym


somehow does not comprehend that there are dudes pumping out 4 plate deep squats for 12 after they first did a bunch of hacksquats with a pile of weight


i once pointed it out to him

he said "all drugs"

Perfect goal physique and the strength to back it up.

This.

500lb bench press 600lb squats and still looks big jacked and athletic.

this is nothing but light weight to ronnie

And he was 1 step away from having to be pushed around in a wheelchair to get to the stage , sort of like a fast car that can only be used on a racetrack. Useless physique and only looked good in still bodybuilding pictures. Looked clumsy and goofy in person and can hardly walk up a set of stairs without gassing.

Respect to Ron for being to most muscular person to ever walk the planet, but you're delusional if you think he had an ideal physique for size strength athleticism AND pussy slaying (which is a HUGE factor in determining the ideal)

Only ideal for impressing schmoes.

who fucking cares

[Ex Coelis]

I'm weak as fuck

doesn't bother me

[V Man]

A guy I train with is so obsessed with strength and training to be stronger. Now he is wearing bench shirts and double wrapping his elbows just to get more weight up. I really don't understand it....what's the point? I just lift raw to try to build muscle......I honestly couldn't give a shit about how much weight I can lift.

Unless youre a strong man or powerlifter, I am not too sure why it matters how strong you are  Like you said, lift to build muscle.

Like I said, it makes total sense if youre a strongman or powerlifter. But really doesnt matter for the average person.

Same philosophy for me. Could care less about strength. However on many lifts I do happen to be strong, but it's not something I train for. I keep my rep ranges between 10-15. I think I'm ok strong for such high reps and sure I could be a lot stronger if I trained lower reps but don't see the point.

Plus when you are over 30 time to start thinking about health and joints.

It shows.
