BB and PL goes hand in hand. you got to lift heavy to get bigger, and you got to lift lighter also to get stronger./thread.

Agreed. That's why I just do Zumba on my Wii to stay toned.

Heavy is relative
It's all about the # of reps

dat you OP?

[streko]

Depends on your goals although it does blow my mind seeing guys who are like 5'10 160lbs squatting 200KG+ - doesn't make sense to me how people can be so strong with significantly less muscle than BBers their approximate height/frame.

I guess that's where the whole 'bbers muscles are just for show' comes from. Significantly stronger than the average but weak for their size as far as powerlifting goes.

I've gone off on a major tangent here k bye

Muscle plays a part, but strength is a lot about intra and inter muscular coordination. Strict bodybuilders isolate muscles, they don't code strength into their system.

Most bodybuilders always make fun of ego lifts, apparently scared of injuries, but I'd rather have quantifiable gains rather than masturbate to myself in the mirror.

[hardgainersrs]

But I do plan on competing....

[VillaCamp]

I like the part where you pay more attention to other guys than you do to yourself. Homo.

[iLifts]

strong rustling.

somewhat agree with op. If you do powerlifting then i can respect that is a different game, and you guys are mostly humble. It's the guys that lift for aesthetics that think size = strength.

honestly go to a legit bodybuilding gym and look around, see for yourself if size correlates with strength. your body has no idea how much weight you're lifting, you can stimulate growth by time under tension, full range of motion, stretch and contract to create a pump allowing the fascia around the muscle to expand...

powerlifters goals are to life as heavy as humanely possible and they will take the risk of getting injured in the process, torn biceps etc.

guys that lift for aesthetics have no reason to take that risk. And there is nothing wrong with lifting to look good/get girls. we all wear nice clothes/cologne fresh haircuts, this is no different.

[swolemate15]

srs, last monday i saw a skinny guy benching two plates for 1 rep and with a spotter, i was like u wot m8? why do you even bother on doing 4 sets of 1 or 2 reps each??

lmao.

if you think high volume moderate intensity is somehow intrinsically safer than high intensity lower volume, i've got bad news

[JitteryJoes]

Just lol. Unless you're a competitive powerlifter you don't need to lift heavy.

I always lol when I see a ******* putting up 3 plates + on the squat thinking he's a badass or something.

Enjoy your damaged articulations goals of 2030.

Height: 6'0

It's legit guys.

Never believe guys that claim attractiveness isn't a factor in their lifting. It would be unusual if it wasn't. Everyone is always doing things to embellish their attractiveness to the opposite sex.

Notice I said 'a' factor, not the only factor. There are lots of reasons why I lift.

someone rep this man!

[vikingbro]

People care about strength for the same reason you care about aesthetics, to stay true to ourselves. to become the person we feel on the inside we want to be to feel and look like that person

also its fun to lift heavy and break records

[iLifts]

care to elaborate?

I said time under tension meaning the rep range. I Didn't say anything about volume, so I don't know where you got that from but since you called me out, back it up.

what with the misc mentality, instead of having informative discussions to help each other, you call each other out like little kids.

[Jellymerlin]

I agree, Women don't even find " bodybuilding" physique attractive.

Lifting for women....

BB and PL goes hand in hand. you got to lift heavy to get bigger, and you got to lift lighter also to get stronger./thread.

It's good to have a background in both but the workout changes once you focus on one or the other. BB is more about isolation and the pump. Only bodybuilders will do an exercise as useless as the shrug. PLers will take up to 5-10 minutes rest to avoid the pump, and lift near their max. Oly also lift near their max dozens of times per session
