1. What do you mean by "out power"?

2. Name one, just one who can "out run" an "elite" athlete ie; T.O. Randy Moss, any world class sprinter, etc.

3. Name one who can "out fight" someone like Liddell, Holyfield or any elite fighter.

4. Anyone can learn to bench, squat and deadlift. Not much athletics involved with that!!

  Dude, what the fuck are you even doing here >:(? You're obviously no bodybuilding fan. I mean, where are your posts exalting bodybuilding? Where are they? All you do is bitch! You're probably some 55 year-old has-been--or better yet, has-never-been--, who are bitter that these guys make lots of money, bangs bitches you can only dream of and have the fame you'll never have. Oh wait, I'll stop now. Life has already humiliated you enough; there's no need for sadism from my part. ;D

Bodybuilders are not athletes....

That is true.

However, a bodybuilder who does cardio is probably healthier than the majority of the population.

I say "probably" due to the fact that when you factor in the diuretics and other pre-contest drugs it probably equals out.

It's not the bodybuilding itself, it's the industry that ruined it. Besides, the thread was only about how bodybuilders (pro's) are not athletes yet they are constantly referred to as "athletes".

Dude, you need to get a grip. This is about the only thing I rag on!

How did I fail. It wasn't my intention to became a pro. Like I said I put down the industry not the bodybuilders. I've been in the industry for more than 30 years and it's been ruined!

Saying bodybuilders are not athletes is a direct hit on the bodybuilders..

In the entire time I've been involved with this industry, it's ALWAYS  been my belief that bodybuilders were not athletes. I'm not really saying to insulting. But lets face it a 5'10 300lb man taking oxygen isn't exactly a poster child for athletics!

ath·lete  

n. A person possessing the natural or acquired traits, such as strength, agility, and endurance, that are necessary for physical exercise or sports, especially those performed in competitive contexts.

n : a person trained to compete in sports


Sounds like bodybuilders are athletes to me.

Is a golfer an athlete? How about a discuss thrower or a 300lb overwieght softball player? Are they athletes? By definition, they are.

The threads around here leave me in awe sometimes.

Arnold beats his wife - discuss!

You've got to be kidding me.
