What does a picture have to go through to become so low quality?

Was it taken from 5 kilometers away and zoomed in?

[Larfleeze]

Has Cedric said how he tore his bicep yet?

[Larfleeze]

Man this section has really fuking died

[MaKaiser]

Man this section has really fuking died

It has eh?

The whole industry is a joke now to be fair.

Considering it always was pretty ****e...that's saying something.


EDIT: Also Ced tore his Bi? pics?

[TropicalSunset]

It is just DEAD here....I remember getting laughed at when I would say that before, but this is not an aberration anymore but just something that is par for the course. We are dealing with a "sport" where individual athletes suffer from lack of motivation, ability, intelligence and drive to market themselves in the right way and grow the sport.

The only thing which can change this is a website or organization pulling in athletes under their wing and taking the incentive to create content and grow the visibility of the individual athletes and the sport.

The reality is that YouTube stars will be bigger and more popular than the actual pros within a few years, if not already.

Every bro in my gym is suddenly obsessed with Calum von Moger, who they keep referring to as "the next Arnold"..no. Just no.

Truth, no one cares anymore. Yay corruption!

On mobile but you can see it pretty clearly in any of his Arnold pics, far from the worst looking tear I've seen

Can't be too dead if MaKaiser still managed to miss the threads about Ced's bicep tear.

This 100%. Pro BBers simply aren't putting in the effort to market themselves. If random no name lifters can have 100k followers and make a living off youtube, there's no excuse for Pro BBers not putting out content every week. Times are changing and every year Pro Bodybuilding becomes more underground and physique and general fitness become more popular.

Give it ten years, and I don't see how bodybuilding survives the way it is now.

[jahaa]

This dude looks insane. Seems abit thick for mens physique, he should do the new classic bodybuilding instead.

Damn...I honestly was going to post that his taper must be Photoshopped, but then followed the link and couldn't believe it. Great physique.

To be fair I lost all interest in bodybuilding for a while.

The gym scene now is simply intolerable.

The "contests" are becoming more and more of an obligation to a contract than anything else.

B-pak has sold out to pez...I dunno

Last week was the first I've checked in for about a year.

Yeah it's all a joke now mostly. The only people I see who take it seriously are mentally ill or just plain dumb. Maybe I just grew up though and everyone is still stuck in a moment, who knows.

[ZBlacktt]

Not chopped....damn.




When your arms make people look small. Guy in back mirin those Hams.

Roelly really seemed to drop off after his accident. Hopefully he can bounce back. He used to be touted as the next big thing, but that died off quick.

His legs and back will never get brought up to match the top guys but he could be a consistent 4-7 placer at the O and bring the freak factor if he drops the camel crew and figures his stuff out

it's my 10 year high school reunion next month wtfbros

Agreed, then again it's probably just due to social media saturating everything and ruining our nice safe space where we could LARP about stupid non lifting normies, our lifting memes and being motivated.

Now every soccer mom is "MIRE ME SHREDZ HAHA LE MOTIVATED" #Lifter #Mombod #FemaleZyzz

Bbing in a way has gone mainstream, while it's more stuck than ever with ****ty coverage, boring contests and rigged placings.

sup fgts?!?!

wat pre workout should I get and don't say food or coffee

ErgoGenix ErgoBlast is the best one i've had since original Jack3d. I like it because it's powerful but more importantly doesn't make me feel antsy/weird or crash afterwards. You just get this nice clean energy/focus.

edit: seems like it was discontiued and ErgoGenix ErgoPRE will launch soon. can't vouch for it but if it's anything like ErgoBlast then i'll take it

All depends on what you're looking for, my man. High or low stim? Want more focus? or pumps? Energy?

Oh man I only ever tried jack3d 2x (friend gave me 2 scoops worth in a bag LOL) and I hit so many PR's.

I'd say a good amount of stim since I don't get much sleep. I was using Prime Nutrition max HP for a while but it looks like they are no longer on the site besides the 10 serving size which I assume they are just getting rid of.

how do you guys deal with tendinitis? My outer elbow area hurts a lot whenever i flex my arm.. for the past 24 hours now. supposedly just ice it and take like 2 weeks off and hope it goes away?

1)figure out why you have tendinitis and got injured

2) ice 2/3 times a day, wrap your elbow for the rest of the time and no elbow related training until pain goes away. Eat at surplus, high protein, fish foods/oils for inflammation, any anti inflammatory foods really...

3) prob a week or two later train light for the first 2 workouts and ease back into regular training

feels like deja vu right now
