Try it. Seriously, try it. I don't care how big you are, strong you are, if you can hold it till the count of five, I'll make a personal effort to stop talking about why Bruce Lee's physique was more functional and superior to a body builder's physique.

Since nobody on /fit/ is a professional bodybuilder, this experiment is flawed.

Furthermore, it doesn't matter if you think Bruce Lee's physique is better than a bodybuilder's. The thread you're referring to wasn't about the best physiques, it was about BODYBUILDERS' physiques. If you don't like bodybuilders' physiques, don't post in a bodybuilder thread. Simple as that, dipshit.

Again, when did I say anything about bodybuilding? Fucking neanderthal ugly piece of shit overweight weaboo, go convince yourself that being a big fatass that can bench 200 could possibly make up for your disgusting body and lack of functional strength.

And for you faggots that think this argument is just about monkey boy himself, here's some BIG functional strength you faggots should be emulating. Try working out like this man.

I didn't say he was. What YOU are saying is that Bruce Lee's physique is better than a bodybuilder's, and that to prove you're wrong one of us needs to hold a 125 lb. bar out. The only way that this would logically make any sense is if one of us was a professional bodybuilder, and none of us is. Chances are, nobody on /fit/ is stronger than Bruce Lee, even though a professional bodybuilder could probably easily be stronger than him.

>The thread you're referring to wasn't about the best physiques, it was about BODYBUILDERS' physiques. If you don't like bodybuilders' physiques, don't post in a bodybuilder thread. Simple as that, dipshit.

Oh, so you DIDN'T make this in response to the bodybuilder's thread? Because it sure seems like you did. Either that, or this is an amazing coincidence.

>Again, when did I say anything about bodybuilding?

Right here:

>Bruce Lee's physique was more functional and superior to a body builder's physique.


The whole notion that you need one of US to prove that Bruce Lee's physique is not superior to a bodybuilder's is a horrible logical fallacy, since none of us are bodybuilders.

Whether we respect him, or admire is physique, is none of your concern. You can't force us to, no matter how much you admire him.

As for me, my opinion on Bruce Lee's physique used to be pretty much neutral. But, ever since weaboo faggots kept posting him in every goddamn BODYBUILDER thread on /fit/ and going on and on about "functional strength", I've decided that I pretty much hate Bruce Lee and anyone who likes him.

If you're trying to get us to respect Bruce Lee, what you're doing is counterproductive.

No, it wasn't "obviously" rhetorical.

And besides, even if WE can't do it and Bruce Lee can, that does NOT mean his physique is better than a bodybuilder's. A bodybuilder could probably hold out much more than Bruce Lee, and a powerlifter or one of those "strongman" guys probably even more than that.

Regardless of whether or not you believe (or didn't believe) any of us could do it, that still proves absolutely nothing about Lee's physique or a bodybuilder's physique.

I think maybe you just hate it when someone points out huge logical fallacies in your arguments.

Anyway, you can't force us to respect Lee if we don't want to. Sorry.

I will agree with OP here, but that is true of North American body builders. Their means of muscle building is increasing the fluid in their muscles, rather than recruiting more muscle fibers. But look in Europe, like Achim Albretch, and you'll see bodybuilders with smaller but very dense, strong, and symmetrical muscles.

Also, locking elbows with the weight above your is fucking easy. "Cheat rep" anyone?

Why did he lock both elbows? I heard he did it with only one hand, so that wasn't necessary.

I pretty much did Bruce Lee's daily routine yesterday with an 80 pound weight set. It wasn't that difficult at that weight. I can see how, though, doing that 3 times a week would give you a really tough internal core. I think Lee's rule was having a tight core so that everything else flowed more naturally.

People who think body building is based only on looks with no care about function are just upset they cant get the same results as body builders.

Out of any lifters, body builders have the most dedication, the best form, and the tightest diets.

Do you think Arnold Schwarzenegger couldn't flip over a car tire? Or that Ronnie Coleman punches like a bitch? Or that Jay Cutler doesn't squat epic amounts and deadlift cars?

You guys are fucking idiots. Watch a body builder train. They do all the power lifts. They do compound moves. The go above and beyond what other lifters do. And they do it all in a way which allows them to maintain a shredded physique.

Bodybuilding mass muscle is equally as, if not more nerdy than sitting at a computer and obsessing over LOTR. I also tend to notice it's the highly athletic, not overtly muscular types that get a lot of attention from women. Too much muscle and you look bulky, bulky is not sexy.

Sorry, I'm not the type to hate on bodybuilding but that's bullshit right there. Olympic lifter by far have the best form, and last time I checked most bodybuilders don't do a lot of deadlifts, rows, etc....
Sure they don't because their main goal is to gain muscle mass, and yes they work very hard for what they achieve, but to say they go "above and beyond" other lifters is fucking stupid. Last time I checked bodybuilders weren't the ones setting records for heaviest lifts or winning strongman competitions. Seriously, it's dipshits like you who make bodybuilding seem like the ultimate lifting "sport" that piss me off the most. And in terms of lifts, if you think bicep curling and benching reps of 10+ is harder than clean and jerking 200+ kg, then you are fucking retarded.
