Go up to Ronnie Coleman at the gym and tell him he is not an athlete!
What else are they doing then just lifting weights? Dieting doesn't make you an athlete.
I would gladly go up to Ronnie and say that. Then I would run away and he couldn't catch me because he lacks the the explosive power to sprint and the endurance to maintain the run because he has no athletic abilities. he lifts weights, eats food and does drugs. that doesn't make him an athlete. tell him to display his athletic ability if he is so athletic? He can't even walk or move or put together a posing routine that is interesting. At least some guys can be athletic in their routines.Optimum Sports Performance

I'd do it, and I wouldn't be worried because since he's not an athlete there is no way in hell he'd catch me. Originally Posted by Robert DiMaggio I agree, I don't consider myself to be an athlete, all I do is train with weights and maintain a muscular physique.

If sense were common, everyone would have it.

Great, but unlike you two I respect pro bodybuilders, especially an 8 time Mr. O winner.

I don't think they lack respect for bodybuilders, but they simply don't feel it is an athletic endeavor. I tend to agree with them, but I certainly respect the harsh training and dieting that they go through to achieve the look they do come competition time.

Oh, I respect them, in fact I would go so far as to say some of the stuff they do is harder than what an athlete does. Originally Posted by Robert DiMaggio If sense were common, everyone would have it.
