    Which Training Partner you would love train with?

    I'm just curious what makes a great training partner?
    A lais back type of person or an explosive type? Or a partner that challenges you set after set?

    Eh, Mike Mentzer. He'd probably push you just enough. He sounds like he was a friendly guy, kinda laid back, but focused.

    I think Arnold would be annoying. From watching Pumping Iron, I mean.

    One thing that makes a great training partner is one that is at or close to your level, and has the same goals as you.

    I would not want to train with a pro bodybuilder, at least not one like Ronnie Coleman cause he would be lifting 3 times the amount of weight as me.

    Someone doing the same program as you, with the same goals in mind.

    Motivated, DEDICATED and knowledgable. I prefer someone whos intelligent, over someone whos strong. You cant teach common sense.

    Ya know, that Ronnie recently finished running a raffle for a training weekend with him in Texas. I almost bought you a chance, but I got afraid that between that "Surrender Ronnie" tattoo and you drivin' his car around like you own the town that he'd be makin' you his b*tchboi in the gym and putting posters of his back next to yours up in every magazine.

    I agree. I would feel weak and pathetic training with someone like Arnold. I'd love to meet him though.

    If I had to pick someone though, I'd pick Lance Armstrong. Sure he'd kick my ass on a bike, but I'd clobber him in the weight room (except on legs day).

    No one on that list. Where are the powerlifters? I'd pick Ed Coan.

    I actually.... very briefly, worked out with Larry Pacifico at his gym in Dayton, Ohio. He showed me proper bench form. I always thought Lee Haney would have been a great work out partner. Anyone remember his show on ESPN? He seemed to be a good motivator, but with a sense of humor.

    C'mon man -- You would have chosen Dorian Yates for that!
    He definitely had pretty much of Mike Mentzer in him!

    But dont you think "LIFTING HOW MUCH WEIGHTS" doesn't matter!
    Arnold said the same.
    You just have to choose a guy that can feed you energy and have incredible chemistry together.

    for all you John McEnroe haters... I'd just like to say he would definitely be more enjoyable to workout with than a bunch of muscle head freaks...

    And yes... on a bodybuilding site... I said muscle head freaks!

    Only exception I see on that list is Arnold, cuz I really this he's had a truly incredible life and has done incredible things.
