I’m a power builder.I like to be big and thick and since I don’t juice if I was to be ripped I’d be around 180-190 at 6’2 so no thanks.I prefer some fat and water and to be 240 and be strong. Being lean looks cool and all but not for me.Weighing food is crazy unless competing,I eat what I want when I want and lift like a beast.

Weighed 247 today and did shoulder presses with 125s for 5 so I’ll take strong and big verse lean any day as a natty.

So basically, you are quite fat. What a surprise

At some point do you think you will downsize to 200-210 just for health purposes?

5’ 11” 182 lbs 8% bf, I do not think of myself as a bodybuilder because I will never step on stage.

There's never been a real bodybuilder who doesn't squat.

Groink couldn’t even squat 225, he’s not a real bber

You talk a lot of shit.I’m happy with myself,size,strength,work,family etc... So I don’t have to go around insulting people.Must suck to be an asshole all the time?

You look great and you look very strong.So whatever your doing is working.being strong hurts haha.

I'm  heavy and not lean now because I like to eat food. PERIOD.
I competed in over 40 shows from 1978 - 1996 and never won any national level show.
For nearly 20 years, I consistently dieted and trained as a bodybuilder.
I also judged in the AAU and NPC for several years.

Now ,( recently) retired and in my 60's I only have a casual interest in bodybuilding.

I have no idea about Red Meat's bodybuilding contest experience, and it's his choice to tell us.
BUT, at some point he won't be weighing his food and squatting* heavy wt.
( FYI Dorian Yates gave up barbell squatting due to injury long before he won his 1st Olympia)

I'm the older chunky guy with a couple gym chain key cards he rants about.
I still like doing what I can in the gym and lost the desire to diet strictly years ago.
I may not look too impressive now, but wtf, we all get older.

Hope this helps.

At least you can walk away from it and live a Shawn Ray life style

I can’t imagine people that diet 24/7, pretty much their entire life, and not compete, enjoy life, drink some alcohol, smoke some weed

bodybuilder is a very loose term . it could be anyone trying to improve themselves by using resistance exercises. there are varying degrees of bodybuilding. i consider myself a gym bro.

Wrong. A bodybuilder is a bodybuilder. End of story. The world is full of schlubs who happen to have purchased a gym membership. A bodybuilder is a special person. 1 in a million.

Special as in retarded yes you are correct.

[SF1900]

If you're building your body, you're a bodybuilder.

FACT!!

[illuminati]

Getbiggers make $40K/mo, drive Maseratis, live in multi-million $$ beachfront homes, squat 500+for reps, bench 350 for reps, deadlift 600+, have sub 10% bodyfat, 18" arms, bang women who are 10s, have $100K in cash, stock portfolios of multiple seven figures, and more, much more.

Yes I do - Thanks
And your Point is ?


 

[illuminati]

That's fine. Just stop telling yourself and anyone else that you're a bodybuilder.

Fcuk off with that Nonsense- You’re no bodybuider if you do or believe that Bollocks.
Why would I or anyone else have the need to weigh their food intake.

Maserati’s aren’t anything special, getbiggers get driven around in Rolls Royce’s and flown around in Boeing planes, and if they want a getaway, they board one of their “smaller” yachts instead of the other bigger Cruise ship

Lol at the skinny/fat phaggot telling the board who is and who is not a bber.

Stick to jacking off to old pictures of Franco Columbo and acting tough hiding behind a keyboard.

Seriously, what a douche bag.

You've never heard of bodybuilders weighing their food? Man you really are not a bodybuilder!

Fuck off Already  - I’ve heard of it - Only you didn’t answer why would anyone need to
Weigh there food intake.

Fuck knows what you are ? You’re neither to bright or a bodybuilder.

No.

Thank you for asking.

[oldschoolfan]

wtf does squatting 315 have anything to do with bodybuilding i am being serious here, i see dip shits all the time loading that on the bar and going down 4 inches, big fucking deal. its not the amount of weight you lift,

but actually working and contracting the muscle is what counts.

[SF1900]

I used to think you had to compete in contests to be a real bodybuilder.
What do you think of that definition?

I think if you’re building your body, then you’re a body builder.

But that’s not how it’s usually classified.
