The Greatest athlete in the World

TJ Cline · 09-04-2005, 05:44 AM

Read about a poll given to athletes years ago. If they could take a pill and be the best in the world at their sport but they would die in a year or something like that.....this is a modification of that idea.

**P-funk** · 09-04-2005, 05:50 AM

tough question.

min0 lee · 09-04-2005, 06:34 AM

When I was a kid maybe, now that I have a family nope.

It would be cool to be like Robert Redford in the movie the natural or be like Jordan and the Babe.

MuscleM4n · 09-04-2005, 07:31 AM

Yes

One of my idols is Andreas Munzer - He placed sixth in the Olympia of 1996. He looked fantastic straitions all out, ripped to the bone, skin like sand paper....
he died 6 days after the Olympia from a drug overdose and the doctors couldn't bring him back until he finally died of heart failure.

I would happily be 6th in the world in the future and sacrifice my death becuase I would be a legend and my name would be known - I would be the next Andreas Munzer if i had the possibility.

Better than dieing as an old man and NOBODY knowing you.

Everybody will probably flame me now saying I am stupid thinking this, but this is what i would want.

My friend who is a experienced bodybuilder was once backstage at an EFBB event when a competitor was dying in front of him, he tried to restart his heart but he couldn't.
The guys last words were "I look great"

TJ Cline · 09-04-2005, 07:33 AM

who is Andreas Munzer

MuscleM4n · 09-04-2005, 07:37 AM

I cannot believe you aint heard of him. He is known as the most ripped person to go on stage ever.

He was an Austrian bodybuilder 1946-1996, RIP.

He seems like a poof!

"He was so dry that his lips kept sticking together. His body was arid. The last of his sweat rolled slowly down him, streamed by his deep striations."

Another constructive comment from you again.

and no he wasn't gay.

buildingup · 09-04-2005, 07:43 AM

i mean its all well and good promoting a healthy lifestyle and going to the gym as a hobby but to have you life revolve around your body and how to desperatley get another 10 pound of muscle is just homosexual!

MuscleM4n · 09-04-2005, 07:46 AM

So you calling me gay? thanks

You are a very narrow minded person to put it nicely.

well yes, if im narrow minded you are very shallow! your body is a shell its not something which should dictate your life! sure its fun to go down the gym and pack on some beef but to be dedicated to that and only that all of your life is just a god damn waste!

but how far would you go to be 'beautiful' usually it is in the eye of the beholder apart from the really ugly people! would you pump yourself full of shit which could kill you? would be someone else's bitch to pay the bills? would you die young just for vainity?

no, it is about Andreas trying to be the next Arnie - Read it again.

Buildingup - I am not a shallow person. You have only been training two months and have limited bodybuilding knowledge so you don't understand a bodybuilders mindset.
To be the best in this sport you have to make big sacrifices and I am prepered to make these sacrifices in the future.
The deeper most competitors get in to bodybuilding the more obssesive they get to make further progress.

This is my opinion and you have yours, leave it as that.

Dont give me that shit, i may have only been properly training for two months but i have been strict and have made really good gains, so you have contradicted yourself as you say you would want to be the best bodybuilder and commit your life to it yet you are not vain and shallow!

MuscleM4n · 09-04-2005, 08:21 AM

I can't be bothered to justify myself to you anymore.

can't be bothered or unable to? are you in self denial about yourself? sacrifice is all well and good but obsession is bad!

MuscleM4n · 09-04-2005, 08:24 AM

Like i mentioned you don't understand the mindset of a bodybuilder

And your a bodybuilder?

The Monkey Man · 09-04-2005, 08:32 AM

Go to the Olympics and shatter some world records, and create some new ones...

Then I would work with kids and promising young athletes for 5 years...

That would have better than anything I have done with my life.
I've done some cool things, but not on that grand a scale,
where you could effect the entire world

MuscleM4n · 09-04-2005, 08:37 AM

I train, eat, and sleep like a bodybuidler.

I will compete in the future at bodybuilding contests.

I am simply not an accomplished bodybuilder.

So yes i class myself as a bodybuilder.

i believe you need to be on a certain level to class yourself as a bodybuilder!

MuscleM4n · 09-04-2005, 08:41 AM

next time remember to include 'in my opinion' in your posts.

People i see in real life acknowledge me as a bodybuilder even though i am not big, so it's going good thanks

This is dragging on, forget it.
