Bodybuilders in powerlifting??

[Tylerwheat]

How come u dont see the top bodybuilders like cutler, coleman, etc. in events such as the world strongest man comps? they are huge and strong, i dont get it?

[cjdelaney]

why don't we see kobe and lebron in the Nfl as receivers, I mean they are tall and athletic and all I just don't get it.

Yourself stab

johnnie jackson competes in powerlifting, ronnie even has his own event the ronnie coleman classic which is a mix of strongman, pling, bodybuilding etc, but he does not compete (there was one set of pics of ronnie with atlas stones, and they are my favorite ronnie pics)

cutler does not lift heavy anymore because of age (something ronnie should have done, because now he has a **** ton of injurys)

bodybuilders as a whole are not strong enough (although they may be alot stronger than you and i will ever be) to compete with strongman, ronnie, johnnie, and dorian are just freak exceptions, and then again they would not do well in some of the events where height gives you a distinct advantage (which is most)

bodybuilding and SM are 2 different animals, one requires you to have a lot of muscle, the other one requires you to do something with it, im sure by now you know the difference between sarcoplasmic hypertrophy and fibrillar hypertrophy

do you honestly think if you put ronnie on an o-line he would be very effective

Ha, the OP bodyspace has a link to his Myspace, where he has Biblical quotes and his mood is set to "prayin"...right next to his gay porn bodyshot.

thanks u skinnycalves, the rest of u can go **** yourselves...ya i guess your right i just figured that since they had sooo much muscle they'd be able to compete with the rest of em, i mean they are still incredibly strong and can use it in the weight room, y not in strong mans?

Hmmm...interesting question...

[Tylerwheat]

the reason im prayin right now is because my mom is in the hospital, hope u feel better now...u dont like my hair? hahaha

[swolegantor]

Strongman requires an entire skill set and multiple strength talents to fare well in.

Alot of bodybuilders do powerlifter (and even strongman) and vice versa. You dont see alot of Pros Bbs powerlifting because they are Pro bodybuilders. Its a fulltime job, a powerlifting comp takes planning and preperation which would detract from there bodybuilding training.

Lose the attitude kid.

That being said, consider the following:

Bodybuilders spent a lot of time dieting. Catabolic state does not promote strength, so by comparison, PL'ers are spending more time building muscle.

Joints. The best bodybuilders tend to have smaller joints, which helps with appearance, but not so much for leverage and avoiding injury

Training methods. Yes, you will get bigger on a PL program, and stronger on a BB program (at least I would hope so), but bodybuilders spend far more time focused on hypertrophy, because no one cares what you can lift on the stage, and PL'ers often spend time training with a variety of methods to improve strength that do not have so much to do with hypertrophy.

Genetic predisposition: Mom and Dad and all those who came before them have a significant influence on this as well.

You're getting the wrong idea from us...just like we get the idea that you're gay from your bodyspace picture.

[WannaBeAthlete]

Powerlifters have great muscle recruitment via CNS and myofibril hypertrophy as opposed to more sarcoplasmic. It isn't to say BBers aren't strong.

hey its the bitch dissin me prayin for my mom...what would make u think im gay from my pic? idk what thats supposed to mean?

[skinnycalves]

well we tend to make fun of religious nutjobs (not saying you are one) because they are a source of hilarity, but my best wishes go to your family and your mother

there is some picture of rychlak next to coleman, and rychlak completely eclipses him, the way i see it is bodybuilders are typically running back/defensive back frames who decide to bulk and lift weights as a primary focus

strongman are lineman and linebackers frames who decide to bulk and lift weights as a primary focus

ofcourse the people with runningback frames will be strong and large, but nowhere near the o-line guy

I'm a Christian. I pray regularly. Let's get that out of the way.

Exactly what ISN'T gay about taking your shirt off and dragging your shorts down where we can see...well, you know. Seriously? You think that's not gay? More power to you, I guess. Personally, I think you look like a Honcho magazine cover.

Furthermore, stop trying to act tough on the internet, Mr. 160 pounds. You're built like a girl.

[Tylerwheat]

really he's that much bigger, that's crazy! i see what ur talking about now, thanks for taking the time to explain it to me skinnycalves, u have def been the most helpful!

i'm actually not really religious at all, i havnt been to church in years, i just dont know where else to turn anymore...

idk what this whole rep thing is, but it seems u can get good reps or somethin, i'd possitive rep ya if i knew how lol

[Tylerwheat]

PS: If you wonder if your picture is gay, check out your Bodyspace friends. Seems to me that are large portion of them are...questionable.

Do you think the guy named "Wetjock" likes you for your brains?

Wow, you've got a temper too. No one said a negative word about your family.

Post some more half-nude pics for your "fans". How does it feel to know that men are pleasuring themselves to your pictures?

[Tylerwheat]

id dont see any of them as questionable, idk y they added me as a friend, but some people on here support each other with thier bodybuilding
