>smartest man that ever lived>obeseDo you really need more than this? Your comment, /fit/?
>>76571376>High INT>Low WISHe may have knowledge but he lacks the wisdom to apply it.Meanwhile, the average boy loving philosopher
>>76571376He would be smarter if he lifted.
>>76571376>Smartest man that ever livedNo idea how you come up with that claim, but regardless, he wasn't even the greatest mathematician of his century.
>>76571376a fat guy's fitness advice isn't guaranteed to be wrong. A fat guy can be ex-fit and from his experience with fitness, or his advice can be repackaged and correct while not practiced. A fit guy's advice can be corrupted by an interest in personal gain, or be adulterated by abnormal conditions like steroid use or by having a completely separate unmentioned fitness program that actually did what he's attributing to his product. A fit guy's advice can also reflect high STR and low INT: he knows what works but offers obvious bullshit as justification for it. There's even advice from complete quacks that's delivered as rapid-fire scientific study results (Ben Azadi, who shows off his "visible abs" and also every single one of his ribs.)The world's a fun place. We have wise men but also fools and charlatans who carefully imitate the wise men to speak and present as they do. You, therefore, need to use your brain and not hope to get through life with a simple heuristic like "listen to big guys (who use steroids)" or "listen to lean guys (who are anexoric)" or "listen to strong guys (demoing a product he doesn't use)".But you can at least cut down on the noise by disregarding obviously unhealthy or dosing people.
>>76571376yeah and he smoked and drank a fuckload. he literally died of cancer at 53 lmfao. not sure if you wanna use him as an example>>76571467who was the greatest mathematician of the 20th century?
>>76572177I posted him.
>>76572186cook, havent heard of him before. have you read Alexandre Grothendieck: A Mathematical Portrait? im considering buying it now
>>76572316Never read it, but looks like an interesting read. All my knowledge about him just comes from wikipedia and talking to other students and mathematicians.
>>76572316if you can't kill people with math, your math sucks
>>76572316>>76573425I think he himself wrote a sort of autobiography/musings book, well he wrote a shit ton apparently, some, from especially his later age, still untranslated. But the one I had in mind was named Reaping and Sowing iirc and it's available in an English translation.
>>76571376This man contributed more to humanity than any lifter. Face it, while lifting is a nice personal hobby it is nothing more than indulging in vanity and seeking pleasure for yourself which although not inherently a bad thing. It objectively doesn't accomplish anything great towards the advancement of human civilization. The reason why we have the Internet, rockets, spaceships, computers, etc is because of nerds like this fatso.
>>76571440Plato was a clown. Imagine defining man as "featherless biped" and being a proto-communist.
>>76575836>The contribution
>>76574306>>76573425ill take a look at it. thanks>>76573671my math sucks so hard then>>76576266epic contribution desu along with the current computer architecture and like 10 gazillion other major inventions
>>76576266Which has prevented another major war for the past 80 years. A double digit percentage of humanity likely owes their life to the existence of nuclear weapons. Lifting is great and all, but it's not saving hundreds of millions of people.
>>76577159Yeah, how wonderful that we can freely drone strike children without having to live in fear of retaliation. What a victory for humanity.
>>76577215indeed
