Bro, Do you even lift?

Not all Strongmen are on steriods and are fat, there are low weight strongman competitions are they are strong as fuck.

Hey sublime,

Benni (the lifter shown in the original post) is a beast, and that image was intended to be humorous, which I thought would be apparent by the last line in red: "This is the body of a guy who fights bears on a mountain."

I was merely adding to the funny pics posted by Sisyphus above me, and wasn't taking a shot at bodybuilding. I didn't create that picture and didn't expect anyone to take it seriously, and I give bodybuilders an immense amount of respect for the amount of dedication that it requires. Let's face it... if it was easy, we'd all be "buff".

You also make some very good points. Steroid use is rampant in strongmen as well (and in athletics in general, even in sports that aren't normally considered strength-based). Strongmen have thicker waists due to a higher body fat percentage. Bodybuilders bulk and cut, while strongmen see no benefit to the cutting phase. And finally, bodybuilders are strong as hell. The graphic I posted merely said that, "When you see these guys in competition they're at their weakest", which is actually true. They aim for 2-4% body fat during competitions, which is only achievable by literally starving themselves. Those ultra-low fat levels cause extreme fatigue and compromise the immune system, and would be downright lethal to try to maintain long-term. Again though, this wasn't intended to be taken seriously.

oh well, i noticed bad calves cramps, i even stopped doing calves because of it, and some bicep cramps while taking showers lol
anyway, i wouldnt recommend taking it unless u like strength training
