Would you rather look strong than be strong?

Let's pretend these are opposites. If you chose to be strong you will look average. If you chose to look strong you'll be average.

Yeah, the bottom guy looks like he's lifting the atlas stones as part of a strong man competition. He could crush you easily.

I guess what Gillipig is saying would you rather look sculpted but not as physically strong like the Mr. Olympia people or would you rather not look as sculpted but be as considered the strongest man.

As for me, I'd rather be strong but that's because I play sports. Imagine someone trying to post me up in basketball if I could lift a 500 pound ball and place it on top of a table thing.

I'd be strong because then I could hunt down all the kids who bullied me at school and smash their brains out. From their ears or something.

... no wait, I don't need strength for that, I can just use Falkor

I can almost guarantee those guys would be terrible at basketball. One, that much bulk means their stamina is shit; they're pumping so much blood, especially for any strength feat. Two, I'm sure they aren't very limber or agile.

Yea but THEY CAN FUCKING LIFT THE OTHER TEAMS CENTER

also, I'm pretty sure all of the bodybuilders use steriods, but does anyone know if they have drug testing for the World's Strongest Man?

I'm sure each of the above trains just as much as the other, but the muscle type (slow/fast twitch) makes a difference.

Just thought I'd throw that out there...

Honestly, both professional bodybuilders and the world's strongest men guys don't look very good imo. At least the latter aren't trying to look good.

I'd prefer a Bruce Lee sorta thing, though not necesarily quite as lean as he was. Keep a little bit of a fat layer on there, that shit can come in handy.

But what if he had tons of money to treat you right? Take you out to nice dinners all the time and such?

Neither really, I wanna look good (bodybuilders don't) and have a good strength/endurance trade off.
