Which sport is king?

Quite a funny Mon Member 371, 186 posts SQ 210, BP 172.5, DL 250 632.5 kgs @ 109kgs UnEq	He meant the definition of sport is something where you need steroids to reach the elite. And in many sports he's right! Maybe on lawn bowls. But they may use beta blockers or cannabis for a steady hand! Bicep curls in a squat rack are very gay! Strongman and bodybuilding are both sports. Physical competition. Thats sport. In which both are.

Strongman is judged on events to win points by being faster or stronger than an opponent/s as such you cannot compare the two. One is based upon performance, one based upon apperance. This is why bodybuilders are, will be and have be known to be bum boy cock gobblers with a penchant for vanity, egotism and small man complex.

No chance of you putting on some posing trunks real soon then mate?!?! Ok, went to dictionary.com and saw the following: sport –noun 1. an athletic activity requiring skill or physical prowess and often of a competitive nature. So ok, by that definition its not a sport. Unless physical prowess includes the dominance of one physique over another? Another debate i guess. But thats a bit harsh! Some of the lads are ok and like fanny.

BB is not a sport by the definition of sport. However it is a competitive pasttime! Or really outside the competitive world it is a support to almost any sport that can be improved by training for bigger stronger and leaner muscles. As can strongman training be too.

As can strongman training be too. Again I disagre, the aim of sports is functional mass and usually explosive force, bodybulding priciples are totally different as they focus on size and shape over all else. What people often confuse is methedology of the different training. While there may be seen to be some crossover, bodybulding is not fundamental to sports, where as getting stronger and focusing on strength and speed can imrpove the ability to gain lean mass. Bodybuilding needs sports, not the other way around. I have yet to hear of a strongman who required 20kg more weight, restircted movement and less strength than those 20kg lighter than him. Lets not forget feats of strength are much much older than physique contests.

some nice relaxing jazz. Member 77, 12599 posts SQ 265, BP 165, DL 280 710.0 kgs @ 93kgs UnEq	BBing a sport lolololol I actually have a lot of time for BB because their contest prep is insane. Not fun. But just because you got to a gym dosn't make you a sportsman.... or being in the World Games lol Off course an even greater sin is to say your a BBer when all you do is train and eat the occasional meal of chicken and rice I once talked to PT who I was told did a bit of BB, PL and SM. Wow thats some resume. On closer inspection he just; benched, did curls and occasionally did some farmers walks lol

nothing to hide, please follow my life on webcam Member 255, 3732 posts	Different people recognise different things as sports. Chess, bridge, pool and snooker are International Olympic Committee recognised sports - powerlifting is not?

The one in the guns and roses teeshirt. Member 171, 2462 posts SQ 272.5, BP 140, DL 245 657.5 kgs @ 80.2kgs Eq	Powerlifting is recognised by the IOC, thats why its in the World Games which is run by the IOC.

Powerlifting is not classed as a 'recognised sport'. Happy to eat my words if people can provide a link saying otherwise?
