[the-craig]

I'm no business expert, but I think that would be 50%...

Come on Davis, you couldn't have failed maths that hard

[Groggery]

Branch almost looks like Dusty now.

[asbrus]

totally.

irrelevant.

[asbrus]

love all the rom natzis

the guy inclines more than half of you can deadlift

n0t t00 menti0n weighing ab0ut 60 lbs m0re and being an ifbb pr0. Shall we c0mpare 15 year 0lds t0 branch n0w t00?

[asbrus]

branch's looks more like a bounce press than bench press.

they are b0th geneticall gifted in the pecs s0 any w0rk0ut will make them gr0w. Kind 0f like phil's arms, but this is m0re pr00f that pr0 b0dybuilding has very little t0 d0 with h0w y0u train.

Good form or not he still trains to absolute failure.

[SwolenONE]

those two define hardcore

[jiveinhere]

I honestly cant stand watching them train, but holy fuk theyre two thick motherlovers!

[germanyt]

Lol. If your expenses are 50% of your revenue then your profit margin is 50%. Davis is correct.

And the only way to have a 100% PM is to sell products that you get for free.

[rmoleman]

looks like kai green when hes smiling -_-

[stealth_swimmer]

Possibly, I forget what the definition of profit margin is. If it's the profit you make as a % of the cost, then it would be 99% - but as you pointed out if it's the profit you make as a % of the price you charge, then it would be about 50% (but I'm pretty sure it's supposed to be as a % of the cost of production)

[DragOn133]

Agreed ,,

Branch doing those cables looked INSANE

[lilarnuld]

I must be doing something wrong cause I never look like I showered in my own sweat.

i'm guessing you dont train in a gym thats gets to 100 degress

From Levrone's Q&A at MD:

During the prep I would gain anywhere from 3-5 lbs of muscle a week. Training really, really heavy, sleeping ten hours a day, eating right, but I would have to attribute 90% of what I did to genetics. In fact, 90% of pro bodybuilding is genetics. Maybe more.

[fallenloki]

If someone sold something for $1.99 and it only cost them $1 to produce, their profit margin would be 99% even though it's an affordable product. Just sayin....

.... You can not be serious.

I can see that.

Though I think people do fall back on the whole genetics thing as somewhat of an excuse as to why they're not as successful as someone else. But it certainly plays the biggest role.

[yzrider400f]

if anyone saw a NORMAL person training like that in a gym they would probably sit there, bert stare for a minute, whip out their cell phone camera and make a post on the misc about it. But since they are pros, they must be doing what works for them right? No, IMO, it's still misc worthy

Okay Donald Trump he was right

I was looking at the markup %, I'm doing a degree in business as well I should really be on the ball with this stuff!

Lmfao. No idea what markup % or profit margin is. Just saw $2 and $1.

Business 101 Davis! The markup is how much more the retail price is compared to the manufacturing cost, and profit margin is how much of the retail price is profit, hence why I said markup is 100% because the price is double, and why you said 50% because gross profit is half of the selling cost of the $2 item. Now you're ready to take on the markets

[asbrus]

0f c0urse since it's the magazines it's a great s0urce. After all THEY just make milli0ns and can't talk ab0ut illegal drugs in their magazines. Yes they w0uld have n0 reas0n t0 lie c0mpared t0 an ann0yma0us p0ster wh0 has n0thing t0 gain. (end sarcasm here)

[spamy]

The thing is you can't buy good genes, you have them or not, and that is what's bothering many and making the competition between people relatively unfair. But life is unfair anyway unfortunately.

The muscle memory played an important part in his amazing transformations.

[BioPulse]

1 buck to produce, 2 bucks to sell = 100 % profit

Correct.
100% profit but 50% profit margine
2 different things guys.


You double your investment, but only keep half of what you charged.

Simple business math.

[ResovoirDog]
