Literally the only difference between the two is bodyfat %. Now quit being a faggot.

And neither could run more than three miles without collapsing.

Function for butterfaces
Form for prettyfaces

You probably shouldn't get your knowledge on how real physiques work from a drawing guide.

You do know that loadsa rugby players are built and can still run 3 miles or whatever faggy running criteria you have

Consider the two types of bodies:

The first is immediately impressive and requires no explanation. The second requires a big whiny comic to justify it to the world.

Did I get that right?

Who cares about impressive to normies m8 girls would consider Arnold dyel if he was standing next to a skinny 6"7 guy

how will fraud gym bros ever recover?

>>42640659
Its not wrong. Maybe misleading, there are many types of strength like impulse power
>>
>>42640659
this pic is obviuosly biased towards the fat guy because he feels like that is more obtainable when in reality yhe artist does and always will look like shit

Really? Then why are power lifters and the world's strongest men always so fat? They are not the same. The bodybuilder isn't building strength, he's building muscle size.
>>
>>42641207
strong at doing things they would hardly ever do in real life

lifting is a joke and you're much better off doing gymnastics or parkour type of shit if you want at least some "function" in terms of flexibility
>>
>>42640967

Running involves having both feet off the ground for a sustained period of time (the period of the run) and involves no group cuddles.

No, it's an artist's reference. There are a bunch of them, but I haven't seen them in years now.

Shit isn't black and white. You can train for both strength and aesthetics.

this, even if you can pick 700lbs off the floor when the fuck will you ever come across a 700lb object you can actually get a decent hold on to pick up?
>>
>>42641257
Not him but its true. So youd choose to be able to lift big rocks and stuff instead of knocking anyone out cause youre fast and explosive?
>>
>>42641374
why choose one? oly lifters have both.
>>
Literally no one looked like either of those until the 19th/20th century.
>>
>>42641373
if you have nine friends who can deadlift 700 lbs and you can too , it means you can group-deadlift a small cars and move it somewhere else .
>>
>>42641207
because they dont care for diets, just for brute strength.. why go on a cut when your goal is to lift a ton?
>>
>>42641411
or you know, push it
>>
>>42641433
Ok bruh here's my next one .
You have 15 Olympic chink who clean the cars and then throw it in the river .
>>
>>42641373
in rippletoes book starting strength there was a good example why it is cool to lift heavy shit. his argument was: when you can deadlift 200 kgs, a box weighting like 40 kg will be lifted easily by you. and i like this argument, because it is so true. before starting lifting i always struggle to lift heavy objects and now things which were super heavy in the past are easy liftable
>>
>>42641462
that's true but then those kinds of tasks become the biggest threat to you. people usually get injured outside of gym lifting pickup useless shit like boxes because they don't give a shit about form and think that because then can lift 200 kg, a 50 kg box is nothing and then they throw out their back

false. Old school bodybuilders did lots of cardio. Biking, jump roping, running on the beach.
