Why do most athletes (Inc bodybuilders) have mostly female offspring?

[fitQuest]

I have been looking at a lot of pro bodybuilders and other pro athletes who have mostly girls and hardly any boys.

I heard this was nature's way of trying to balance things out for men with high test levels.

Anybody have any info or thoghts on this?

To even discuss this I'd need to see some random examples of sports people/pros and for it to show what you're claiming. I'd hazard a guess that you'll find it's pretty equal for boys/girls..

[RockyTheKid]

Some examples would've been nice.

[fitQuest]

Just an observation I've made about most bodybuilders and enhanced athletes.

Branch Warren
flex wheeler
Lance Armstrong
Stallone.. ever since he went full TRT and HG. . 3-4 girls back to back from his current wife.. no Boys.

Off the top of my head..

David Beckham - 3 sons, 1 daughter
Tiger Woods - 1 son, 1 daughter
LeBron James - 2 sons, 0 daughters
Darrem Charles - 1 son (that I know of) not sure about daughters
Branch Warren - 0 sons, 1 daughter
Victor Martinez - 2 sons, 3 daughters

you see where I'm going with this... pretty even or if anything, it favours more boys? and that's just random off the top of my head sports people

Arnold - 3 sons, 2 daughters

[RockyTheKid]

Can't forget about Kevin and his son Gabe, aka "Baby Levrone"!

Also, didn't Ronnie father twins?

[RoroCwalker]

Didn't Coleman have around 5 daughters and 1 son?

[BartPimpson]

Yeah, I don't get it. Loads of bodybuilders have sons.

[FearNoHardship]

i think its pretty even. but supposedly better looking people have more daughters. heard somewhere.

[ZBlacktt]

I have 3 daughters.... natural levels are high.

I read a very recent Coleman interview on MDTV. When asked about the worst thing/mistake he made outside of BBing, he said he acted as a sperm donor for a close friend, said he would prefer that as she originally asked him and planned to go to a sperm clinic when he said no. The woman went on to have triplets and Ronnie thought he got shafted having to pay chit loads of money for them. Cmon Ron, should have seen that coming.

There's more of a correlation between bodybuilders and zero offspring.

[Jamy2j]

Does Arod have boys? Joe Namath only had daughters too bad so did Oj Simpson hulk hogan had one of each

[JanesLastResort]

But professional athletes aren't the only people who can potentially have high test levels.

And there are lots of females in the world.

So how do you explain that?

[B-Neva]

Cuz they don't have dat soopa sperm

[Ikatsu]

Didn't Coleman have around 5 daughters and 1 son?

Not sure about that one pic of him with that high school kid in the football field but he said himself he has 7 (maybe 8) daughters and no sons. He said himself he's never had a son. Direct quote from the seminar I went to in June...

What type of retarded hypothesis is this

[fitQuest]

I'm at that age now where all my friends who lift and are in their early 30's are having nothing but daughters. This know some local MMA fighter's and they have only daughters.

I saw a few in a *** documentary once on TV and having a hard time locating it.

Some others with only daughters:
Mark Dugdale
Ultimate Warrior

there's gotta be something going on here.

But there are just as many with equally both or even just sons so it really is looking like it's balanced out.

I know a family who have 8 sons and no daughters, not a sportsman but still, it shows anything is possible

But that's exactly my point. Athletes or those with high test levels, natty or enhanced seem to have female offspring more than male. The documentary I saw said that this was nature's way of balancing things out.

Well from the list that's been drawn up so far there's not really any conclusive evidence that would suggest that. We would really have to see what the stats say for about 50 sports people who we know have high test levels and getting that data isn't easy to do.

My challenge to the idea that having girls is nature's way of balancing things out if person has high test is this - what would happen if ALL men on earth were athletes and had high test levels? Every one of them would only have girls and then we'd be left with only girls and the human race would be come extinct within 50-100 years or so?

Bit of broscience I'm thinking..

10/10 thread repped

[miscing4life]

Recently been a slew of misc-like quality threads in the IFBB, what's going on?

[DomzyCuttin]

Its an interesting idea. To those saying that so and so has boys, we don't know all the variables like what the test levels were at time of conception. Maybe they came off and crashed their levels before conceiving. Even with the variables in place, there still is a chance of conceiving a boy. My friend who competes also just had a girl, thinking he was infertile, damn clomid.

Ronnie has 8 Daughters...expecting a 9th child

There seems to be something with AAS or perhaps fertility drugs they use when trying to get pregnant.

A lot of bodybuilders have daughters

Dugdale
Branch
Beyeke
Henry
Centopani
Coleman

the guys posted above. There was a thread about the topic on another forum

Lol this

Some are lucky to have kids in the first place

[Pavan5220]

Yeah! I totally agree the reality most of them are having female offspring but some of them do have male offspring like arnold who has two boys
