Many /fit/izens lift simply to attract women. Their muscles are as functional as a peacock's plumage. Are you like that or do you employ your gains in a more functional manner? Could you use your gains to escape from quick sand, for example?Could you arch your back like this young man? How strong are your legs? Are your thighs strong enough for you to lift them up and out?

>>76953796Thank you fellow poster, I am not gay and I also care about what others think, so I don't think I will wear that on a short.

>>76953429>functional muscle vs show muscleCompletely nonexistant distinction. There's no such thing as "show" muscles. Big muscles = more strength, necessarily and absolutely, with linear correspondence

>>76953429>quick sandthat dude is playing with mud, he is not sinking
>>76953972How do you tell the difference?
>>76953429The most functional thing is being attractive. It’ll bring the greatest improvement to your quality of life. “Le functional strength”. A pulley and a cart makes you obsolete

>>76953429This thread is bait, but I'll bite. I think the difference between gym strength and muscle strength is the degree to which you are comfortable applying force in weird positions. Most gym lifters will develop strength through a few ranges but rarely bother with anything, say, outside a neutral spine position, or involving lateral bending or twisting. Lifting "real" objects like big rocks, couches, heavy equipment, or packed boxes requires you to move through further ranges than you will expose yourself to if all you ever do is the big 3 barbell lifts plus accessories. Of course this can be fixed by just working through said ranges, even every once in a while, and developing an actually resilient body (not doing meme "bulletproofing" shit like unweighted bird dogs).
