>>77410151peak male physique
What a handsome race.
>>77410151>from rowing 350lbs to like lmao 1plaet Wha went so catastrophically wrong? This was like 12 years ago too
>>77410151he looks like a penis
>>77410151God, I love that he needs to use a bar that compensates for his gut. It's too funny bros.
>>77410151Holy gut
>>77410151He looks like my penus when it's cold outside but that's very nice ROM he goes below feet level.
You can’t do a goddamn thing about visceral fat past 30. You’ll see
>>77410151I feel less bad for my tummy hanging during rows now.
>>77410151more like golem training.
>>77411821>visceral fatanon his internal organs are bursting at the seems because he shoots HGH every day
>>77410151I'm legitimately concerned by how effortlessly stronger my lats and every back muscle besides rear delts get than any of my push muscles.
>>77410151What causes a gut like this? How can I avoid it? Honestly I'd prefer to look dyel in my 40s than have this mpreg look
>>77411897They say he had a stomach reduction surgery but thinking now it was probably a highly risky intestine shortening with the risk of sepsis and internal bleeding and shit. I wonder if abusing insulin might have played a role.
>>77411909humans are back dominant animals your posterior chain is much stronger than your anterior chain
>>77411920>>77411916He is older and seems to have been roided for much if not all of his lifting career. This lowers your overall potential and requires more juice all the time to maintain a physique since the muscle especially isn't as high quality. Basically he needs more juice and is not as strong as someone way smaller compared to moderately smaller in say mid dosage athletes because of the nature of steroids.
>>77411921The difference is kind of disproportional though because I never hit push as a teen from injury. Now I just lift through pretty significant strains and have somewhat evened it out but I never realized muscle maturity was such a big deal. Is why I say I wish I lifted once a month even, I'd be getting infinite gains way last where I'm struggling years in.
>>77411916Take growth hormones (or be an alcoholic), and you will be rewarded with the peak aesthetic goal of looking like an impregnated male.I only take advice from impregnated males, by the way.
>>77411875He looks so funny running but I can't explain why. Bodybuilders always look uncanny when running.
>>77411950He runs like a toddler and looks as retarded.
>>77410151There’s vids of this guy ohping 275 lbs he should’ve just embraced egg mode and went into powerlifting, he came up w the slow stretch stuff bc of his anthropometry
>>77411916Don't roidtranny, Testo peaks for a short time during teenage years and normalizes later for a reason.
>>77411950>He looks so funny running but I can't explain why.its your natural instinct telling you >this is a disabled humanbecause the unnatural mass on the torso disables all atheltic grace the human body has in motion.
>>77410151Erm...
>>77410151
>>77410151bodybuilding is a meme
>>77411937>Take growth hormoneshGH literally melts visceral fat, stupid.Palumboism is from megadosing anabolics and insulin, not hGH.
>>77413401growth hormone is an anabolic agent you munter
>>77413033>auditioning for an Eggers movie
>>77413476Concession accepted.
At what point exactly did bodybuilders become freakish cautionary tales?
>>77411821That’s not fat dude those are his organs
>>77410151Is this the retard with the embarrassing PhD?
>>77413033My god the guy on the left made me laugh hard. His movements are such a weird mix of weird, ridiculous and gay. Thank you for posting this.
>>77410273Mike looked great here but he really needed that extra hair loss to complete the Baby Ogre look.
>>774118750:02 that nigger laughing at him makes me so mad!
>>77413964>My god the guy on the left made me laugh hard. His movements are such a weird mix of weird, ridiculous and gay. >Thank you for posting this.At least 10% of women, maybe more, absolutely LOVE this braindead mumbo-jumbo. Guarantee if he had a 'movement studio' in any major city he'd have dozens of women in his classes wanted to fuck him. The shit that every straight man immediately recognizes as cringemaxxed faggotry is truly loved by women ("the way he moves is so intentional and spiritual")
How the fuck are you supposed to do this exercise properly? By the third rep my arms have completely taken over and my lower back has rounded out from my concentration shifting to getting that weight pulled up.
>>77414865I've lost it but there's webms circulating of group classes of women doing I guess "pelvic floor" exercises which I guess require LED plugs be inserted in their vag. It's the dumbest shit imaginable until the next dumb shit they come up with that involves moving the body around to meet the definition of exercise without actually doing anything
>>77414890imho the truth is that barbell rows aren't that great. you're much better off with something chest-supported
>>77415047Trvke
>>77410151RUNNIN RUNNIN RUNNIN
>>77413033You convinced me.Gut maxxing is manly, sissy stretching isn't.
>>77410151LMAO 2pl8s
>>77413033this guy is super popular in bath houses, hope he doesn't catch the monkeypox
>>77414890>>77415047silver era bodybuilders build impressive backs with rows
>>7741195099% of bodybuilders just refuse to stretch or go full ROM on exercises because they're too busy/tired doing x6 for hypertrophy.They run funny because their athleticism is shit. Anybody who worked in construction or on a hike with these blocky dudes know they're dead tired after 2 hours because their bodies are only used to a small range of motion.
>>77414890In that case you should take a lower weight, this one of those exercises where your technique goes to shit if you go to heavy. 3x8 is the lowest amount fo reps you can get in my experience.
>>77412588Here's the 32 year old kid I was telling you about
>>77410151Dr Mike just needs to lose weight, period. Being 240lbs at his height is no good, he's not supposed to be carrying that much mass. Greg Doucette even said this, at the same height Greg competed at 190lbs. Fact is you can't carry that much mass at 5'6" and still be healthy and look aesthetic.Even Mentzer (5'8"), who he loves to compare himself to, was lighter
>>77414890You are not strong enough to row the weight you are trying to row. And i dont mean just your back.
>>77412006Nigga, he would have looked the same running when he was a kid. It's because he's a fucking dwarf with stubby little legs.
>>77413934About 1994.
>>77419153>Nigga, he would have looked the same running when he was a kid. It's because he's a fucking dwarf with stubby little legs.An under-discussed aspect of (((their))) psyche is their inferiority complex over being bad at sports. It's a BIG deal to them. Get some drinks in one and make him think you're sympathetic, and you'll get an earful how he hated the tall, athletic goyim in high school and how he's now sure they're super jealous how he makes lots of money now and they're failures kekkekekeke!
>>77411950he was wearing shoes without shoelaces and they were slipping offthe more pathetic part of that video was when he couldn't even finish few laps running at a leisurely pace
>>77410151Its funny he needs a special bar for his fat gut.
>>77415138did he fail on purpose because he gets off on being shamed? not being able to leisurely jog for less than 4km is cripple tier
>>77413033So what's wrong with the mobility movements on the left or the row in the right? The only thing I can think of is that possibly dividing the row in two movements, a chest supported row with similar stretch + a rdl from blocks might be better. But I mean that movement trains his whole back as a unit so.
>>7741182144 here and my gut looks better every day. I've just cut out the bread and the booze. Half the problem is bloating from junk food.
>>77414890Like mentioned earlier, it's probably just better to divide this in two movements altogether so chest supported row and some rdl variation. You can do these rows or even power rows where you involve legs too and they do gas you out but most likely will not train any of the muscles specifically well. Of course it always does something especially if it's your only back chain movement. Deadlift, bent over rows, power rows etc are all movements which mostly just train that specific movement pattern and not much else. Like if there was a competition for all of those movements then that would be the only rational reason to train to get good at them.
>>77411916HGH. Someone mentioned earlier. It makes all your internal organs grow as well so you literally have no space left in your gut. You look at old shots of Arnie on gear and he could still suck his tummy in, it was a legit bodybuilding pose. But since HGH became all the rage then they all get this bubble gut. The problem bodybuilding scene is now trying to move away from the mass monsters and back towards the classic "greek god" physique
And I mean this might sound crazy but power rows can be used as cardio with similar technique to 20 rep squats. So take a weight you can do 10 reps confidently but then you start taking breaths between reps set to get even one or two more and go 20-30 or whatever. Not exactly the same as squats because you are not under the weight but you are attached to it and will gas out.
>>77414890You're lifting too much load then. Drop the weight and concentrate on squeezing the lats more. Or just fuck it off completely and do pull ups instead. I much prefer chest supported rows with a dumbbell or kettlebell. I don't know why but I feel doing unilateral work helps me target the lats more. Just try that. Drop the weight down, increase the reps and focus on engaging the lats
>>77410273Probably that he got 12 years older
>>77420490No that's not the point. The poi t is the guy on the left is super flexible and in terms of how you function as a human being strong, fit and flexible is much more valuable than just being a mass monster.
>>77420518Okay I somehow read it was making fun of both videos.
>>77413934My dad has a story about that from the early 1970's
>>77420524Yea. Body building is a meme. I think Mike has single handedly killed bodybuilding. That pathetic video of him trying to run and jump really woke a lot of people up. He's an absolute shambles of a human being and what's the point at all in being able to lift however many pounds when you can't even run as fast as the average 6yr old. He claims he's a grappler but he must get tired after about 3 minutes. All you'd have to do is keep him moving for a round or 2 and then you can submit him
>>77420560I don't know why you'd take advice from someone who has so obviously destroyed his body. Other than "don't do what I did".
>>77411821lmao keep telling yourself that
>>77411875he is all torso with stumpy legs. I just cant unsee it now
>>77415177Even Grizzly trains his flexibilityhttps://m.youtube.com/watch?v=lI3cngw6S6I
>>77410151how long until he gets eaten or turns into a gym goblin? it's a doggy dog world out there
>>77412175looksmatched
>>77420299He's mocking all gymcels
>>77411909This is why I only train back once a week. It adapts and recovers faster than anything else on the body. Unless you want to look like a psycho from Borderlands, theres more reason to spend that extra time in the gym tightening your core or whatever.
>>77417472bro.. you're stupid. those people who make fun of bodybuilders don't train even twice as hard as a bodybuilder or powerlifter. anyone can gasout by stealing aura and being a drag.
>>77421522he is turning into something for sure
>>77421780This video was bizarre even for him. I think he's going to crash and burn at some point. He's extremely mentally unwell.
