 A member for 10 years and still no mouldy peanuts Member 1252, 4475 posts SQ 160, BP 110, DL 215485.0 kgs @ 98kgs UnEq | The USA has to choose which shot putters to NOT take to the Olympics. Their male shot put roster could conceivably place 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th - were they all allowed to compete. | ||

They're all freakishly gifted strength wise. when I see these guys move massive weights I always think its such a waste that they use all that strength to just throw stuff. maybe my priorities are fuct..  | ||

I dunno... an Olympic gold medal is pretty cool. And no reason these guys couldn’t try strongman once the explosive power has diminished with age (perhaps less likely in this age of strongman mind). I remember seeing a discus thrower one-arm snatch 90-95kg and was blown away. That’s more than Chris Jenkins. | ||

Yer to be honest i don't see this at all, and i know that Thor is about the same height but Lebron doesn't look like he has good leverages at all for lifting | ||

A member for 10 years and still no mouldy peanuts Member 1252, 4475 posts SQ 160, BP 110, DL 215485.0 kgs @ 98kgs UnEq | LeBron is one of the greatest athletes ever. He was a wide receiver, believe it or not, in high school American football and seen as at least as good a prospect for the NFL as the NBA. But, he is no weightlifter. Just awful. But, if the choice, in the genetic lottery of life, is: A) World-class speed, size, vertical jump and eye-to-hand coordination Or B) A nice squat and deadlift Only a complete moron would choose option B. | ||

LeBron has had what, three sets of braces during his time in the NBA. He's still grabbing ally oops for fun after 16 seasons. So, he's still jumping like he is in his 20s and his jaw has somehow miraculously moved several times in his professional career..... I'm pretty sure that he's had PLENTY of experience with supplements. Probably a particular supplement which the NBA doesn't test for. Which historically f**ks up bodybuilders jaw lines. And in spite of all of this, his squat is AWFUL. https://www.instagram.com/p/B_WVJVggpJZ/?igshid=fo5gj9h7pxqn Because LeBron ain't built for skwoots. He's built to run and jump. | ||

I expected it to help me, i was very good at long jump and 200, never beaten in any schools competitions i did, never came across a faster player on the football pitch either. I thought this would mean i would be strong due to fast twitch fibres and yet i am very very mediocre at powerlifting | ||
