Intense looks in pretty good shape, compared to a lot of the pics posted here.

That being said, I disagree with him. The athletic part is the training and diet that lead up to body improvement and shows.

As far as the O2 goes. Anyone dehydrated and carb depleted to that extent probably needs some.

He has as much chance as you placing top 5 at a local show.. Doesn't look good..

I was thinking about it sometime this year but then I came to my senses. Why spend thousands on getting ready for shows to get no return. Beside's the industry has changed alot and the thought of waring posing trunks and putting on oil doesn't appeal to me!

This question has popped up her at least 100 times in the last year. Bodybuilding is a sport. The shows are a pageant, like a Miss America. It takes an athlete to get ready for a show. To the naysayers, just train with a competitive bodybuilder getting ready for a show and tell me the guy isn't an athlete. never mind the diet, supplements and cardio. Just weight train with one, if you can. You don't just put on a pair of trunks and oil yourself up. it takes years to develop a championship physic and weeks upon weeks to train yourself to be contest ready. Than talk.

How many sports/(whatever you call bodybuilding) are there where athletes are at around 2-3% bodyfat and missing many essential nutrients/water....and are then asked to do some sort of an activity?....fatigue is only natural....

Marathon runners?

Yup....lots of heavyweights at 300 pounds....like Ronnie at 2-3% bodyfat....

In addition, wrestlers have time to eat (after they weigh in), and load up on water and carbs before they wrestle. Bodybuilders cannot do this.....

You don't want to rehydrate before a show but you can eat. You especially want to if you come into the weigh in looking flat.

Duhhhhhhh, he's being tested for his VO2 uptake! That apparatus measures how much oxygen his body is using.

Did you just find that pic on the net and think he was hooked up to an oxygen tank??

The marathon runners I know typically eat what they want, because they don't gain weight based on how much they run. They can also eat a solid nutritional breakfast the day of a marathon. They drink plenty of fluids and electrolites before and during their run....

And of course, that is a big difference in comparison to what bodybuilder have in their bodies the day of a show....

The problem with that is that anyone can lift weights, but not everyone can catch a ball on the run while being chased by a 250lb tackle or hit a baseball at 95mph. Just some examples!

Besides that, he looks down on bodybuilders, why would he try to compete just to get 8th place at a local show.. Then he'd really put down bodybuilding..

Funny how bodybuilders are not athletes, but can bench press, squat and deadlift more, out-run, out-fight and out-power elite athletes from other sports. Go figure...

SUCKMYMUSCLE

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!!
