How did he get that jacked with high volume bodyweight exercises?
african genes
>>77225968Ninja genes
>>77225954With high volume bodyweight exercises, dumbass.
>>77226024That's cardio training after certain point dumbass
>>77225954Litteraly testosterone. Average carnivore raw milk larper looks like a pudgy DYEL despite 400g protein and muh saturated fat. There's other genetic factors in muscle building/retention. By Androgens are the main driver, and most manipulatable.
>>77225954nigger
he lifted weights but they dont tell you that because it takes away the mystic
>>77225954Volume and frequency are good for hypertrophy, also going to failure regardless if its low or high reps will cause hypertrophy.
>>77226433>>77226457He also took PEDs. This is the real answer and the only answer. He fought high on coke and had a coach with a win-at-all-costs mentality, in the 80s when everyone was getting into the juice, testing had not caught up, and people still can't accept that he blasted. Crazy.
>>77226483His fights were mostly fixed or rigged, the moment he fought someone with a non fraudulent record and without don kings political protection he got blasted
the only things that matter are time under tension and progressive overload.
>>77225954>using your le muscles makes them le grow!?Brilliant thread anon
>>77226487>moment he fought someone with a non fraudulent recordTyson was knocked out by his sparing partner who knew to counter punched his left hook. Anyone who knew how to fight him and had the required size and power and skill could beat him. Tyson would get frustrated getting counter punched and he would start to open himself up. Buster Douglas did it in the lights, then Holyfield did it again. Once Tyson was knocked out two times it was over for him and get knocked several more times after that.
>>77226024>>77226475>>77226868>>77226890So why don't you look like that?
>>77226868Arnold would lie about his training so he'd be even more ahead of his competition. Andrey smaev is the closest anyone has gotten since to his development of pecs. It's probably more common to be misleading in fighting since the stakes are higher. Mike was by no means the most physically intimidating fighter but is obviously among the strongest, save for powerlifters who transitioned to fighting full time like tank abbott and even he gets mogged by someone like lesnar or ubereem. But his training is pure athleticism so yeah he can do more with less than some steroids user with less raw skill than some 19 year old who is above average in the fight scene. >>77226940Fighting in training is not so black and white. Was he even expecting to be hit at full force? Whether or not he was is another question, the point still stands that he probably flattens said doarring partner in an actual fight. Knocking someone out cold vs putting them on the ground for a few seconds and with 14oz gloves is not very common. >muh he got beatCould your favorite boxer do what mike did in their prime? Not even close. They lack raw strength and athleticism. He can still take a punch like a motherfucker, jake was sending them to his head and he ate everything like he was being punched by a girl.
>>77226433Tyson has several indicators of steroid use from a young age, maybe such a small amount that it barely even caused his testosterone to dip when off cycle. He has a high pitched voice, stagnates on physique instead of getting bigger suggesting not wanting to use so much, bulging veins, poor endurance even though he ran a lot because your heart is constantly strained and is a side effect of liver problems, roid rage, but nothing about his physique is not naturally achievable, I'm the most torn about his natty status over basically any other athlete but his size variation points to enhanced. Wbc doesn't test for steroids properly, the 265 limit is a soft ban on mass monsters who'd make the sport barbaric. Imagine mike at 280 lean he would literally kill someone in the ring.
>>77226965>>77226940It's not even about techniqueHe's a complete fraudAll of profesisonal boxing before 2000's was more of a show than a sport, it olympicized around that time and around the 1980's by soviets to become a genuine sport, and after the soviet Union collapse their sphere of influence was still dominating so western countries felt pressurized

>>77225954he slimmed down, he was a fat fuck before starting to box, people thought he was thin or something, he was one fat niggah, in time off he'd reach like 250
>>77226979He could definitely punch a lot harder than basically anyone, imo what looks like rigged fights are a bunch of scrubs who don't wanna get rocked hard again. He was best during the earlier part of his career, later on he was more of a celebrity. He was well out of his prime when he was losing.I think a lot of russian boxing was focused more on mma, I think of soviet fighters in mma more than boxing. Older American mma fighters are a lot more boxing oriented too, maybe I'm just yearning for a more dominant champ with more exciting kos.
>>77225954prison is so boring that it forces you to do a 1000 reps per exerciseniggers do partial reps. that's how they are able to do that much volume
>>77225954You think he grew his biceps like that with some stupid ass 40lb weights doing 30 reps? I'm pretty sure he could do handstand push-ups, at least against the wall I'm pretty sure I've seen so he at least has the ability to overhead press bodyweight. That's pretty fucking strong especially on someone with a high fight iq. If he was dominating his opponents with footwork he could reliably ko in one shot from a ducked position. Way harder to generate power from compared to a deontay wilder stance. If wilder doesn't hit the cross vs mike its game over, he only ever got beat by people who admitted to juicing with a vast reach advantage using a more traditional stance like ali but with a fuckton more strength.
>>77226979I don't think he's a fraud, prime mike is one of the last people I'd want to get in a street fight against.
>>77225954>I know someone who'd fuck up mike when he could throw 2 front hands faster than a 1-2How much of a boxer even are you? I'll fight anyone here I study boxing.
>>77227080Hold up is this photoshop? Mike isn't looking that big at all in a lot of these pics.
>>77227080That's obviously not real
>>77226107Apparently not at the point he was doing them at
>>77227080>i study boxingwhat a tremendous faggot you are
>>77225954Roids. Every athlete in the 80s and 90s was on them, typically high doses as well.
>>77227197You wanna fight or not? I'll make a discord let's see how smart you are and how stupid I am.
>>77227203>I refuse to fight you>My intelligence yet is eliteOk player how about me with one hand but I can still kick you. How about now?
>>77225954>hit the bag hard >gain punching power even while skinnyThat's basically any pro boxer but they also have muscle. Remember that this guy can just break a trained normies jaw when he feels like it with 14oz gloves and he looks about as jacked as an elite natty college freshman not on steroids.
>>77226975>Wbc doesn't test for steroids properly, the 265 limit is a soft ban on mass monsters who'd make the sport barbaric. Imagine mike at 280 lean he would literally kill someone in the ring.I can't see him at 280. More likely he would get killed by some giant 300+ lb guy who just overwhelmed him with size
