Bodybuilding is pure masturbation

[Cornfed]

Alot of black guys are gifted naturally.

So are Samoans, many whites (Icelandic people come to mind, those dudes are BEASTS)

In the bodybuilding sense they are not actually blessed because they are big boned. Therefore they just look like old-fashioned lumberjacks or whatever. The aesthetic muscular look is achieved by hanging big muscles on small bones.

Bodybuilders, from what I see, seem like about 90% are making up for something they lack

When I was into bodybuilding I was making up for stuff I lacked. Specifically I otherwise led a fairly sedentary lifestyle and so wanted to increase my fitness, and I am fairly small for the area I come from, so I wanted to increase my size and strength. I don't see anything wrong with this. It is like a dyslexic person taking extra reading lessons.

A bodybuilder is a man who thinks prancing around with giant oiled-up dudes in tiny underwear is the epitome of manliness. I call that misguided at best, plain hilarious at worst.

Obviously the modern drug-controlled bodybuilding scene sucks. I'm not sure how it could be saved. But the idea of an asthetically pleasing form, which relates to function, is a valid pursuit.

yeha i guess you're right. i also forgot about Mike Tyson too.

i disagree. Lifting weights increases your body's testosterone which gives you a more square jaw, it even affect how you act.

Ever notice that a lot of big guys are quiet and calm? Ever meet a big guy with a high voice?

Conversely, lots of fat guys i meet have high voices.

Most people downplay it because they think that you need to be ridiculously, steroidally huge.

In the Bible there was Samson, and other mythical characters long ago, like Hercules, and warriors.

Being moderately to very fit-- there's absolutely nothing wrong with this. It's like saying having money is bad-- only so when you're that jerk, unethical billionaire.

Ever hear Ron Coleman talk ? go on UTUBE and listen to him talk. He is about the biggest guy ever to walk the planet, were talking HUGE and when he opens his mouth it sounds like they cut him at 5.

although everyone puts down people who overdo it, for 95% of people, getting into better shape and adding some muscle and definition does not hurt.

I'd say the same thing for women as well. How much better would most women look if they were in shape and well toned and trim?

You don't need to look like the Rock or Arnold Schwarzenegger, but having some good muscles is like having a bit of money. It doesn't hurt. It only the people that focus their entire life on it or obsess about it that makes it an issue.

So are Samoans, many whites (Icelandic people come to mind, those dudes are BEASTS) and even certain Asian people such as Mongolians who all seem blessed with natural strength. Natural strength is what women ultimately look for in a man, the type of strength and attractiveness that's not the result of years pumping iron or going under the knife\take ball-shrinking supplements. Having sons by a bodybuilder who is naturally scrawny will not give you buff offspring, but scrawny. I think women know this on an instinctive level to be true, even if they don't realize it.

Bodybuilders, from what I see, seem like about 90% are making up for something they lack, the same way guys who always carry around guns everywhere and ride huge cars do. And bodybuilding forums are showing a very clear homo-erotic element to it, too. I would say bodybuilders aren't naturally the manliest of men. The way they worship the bodies of famous bodybuilders is eerily similar to the way teenage boys talk about their favorite actress' or model's breasts. Simply put, it's a very gay lifestyle.
