Kris Dim: Why Asian BBs are Less Successful
« on: July 20, 2006, 03:16:39 PM »
In his segement of the BFTO 2005, Kris Dim claimed that Asians fare poorly as pro bodybuilders because they have genetically thicker skin.

Somehow I don't think this is their only short-comming . . .

Being filled with oil makes your skin appear thick as well.

Double whammy for Dim.

If this statement were true, they would be awesome boxers and less prone to bleeding.  Thickness of skin is BS excuse.  All bodybuilders who take test and/or GH develop thicker skin over time.  Doesn't stop ronnie from winning does it?

I think it has to do more with height most Asian bodybuilders are short and that in bodybuilding holds all races back , and his lack of balance is a severe liabilty .

That is a poor excuse also because one of the most cut individuals ever, to really make people say.."that guy has not an ounce of a fat on him", was none other than Bruce Lee !!!

thick skin not...

height is highly correlated with prosperity.   lot more tall Koreans and Chinese today than 20 years ago, both here in the US and over in Asia.    The Korean section of L.A. is nearby, and I see lots of 6' - 6'2" guys in their late teens, early 20s.

South east asians i.e Cambodians, Vietnames, Thai etc. are genetically the smallest people in the world. Being an ectomorph with terrible bone structure and lack of height are major shortcomings for bodybuilding.

In Japan there are some very big guys nowadays with huge bone structures and gigantic calves, however with very strict drug laws it's almost impossible to get gear and muscular physiques are not the ideal.

Every idiot wants to play soccer or baseball, gyms are full of housewives and retired men.

Steroids are legal in Japan. Really, they are. Check it out for yourself...

They frequently have a very cool, very low, very delineated soleus insertion. Very cool indeed. IMO.

Phillipinos are the worst bodybuilders.  They have Big Heads, Fat little bodies with narrow frames.  They respond horribly to steroids and have awful muscle insertions.
