Why do people here bag on cutting cycle's and low body fat %??

[vinylgroover]

At the end of the day we are all driven by ego to some extent, it's just that the manifestation of that ego is different from person to person.

For Cobrautah, the manifestation of his ego is in looking buffed and having people be impressed by that, for ironlion it's in hoisting big numbers and having people marvel at that.

So let's cut the horseshit about what drives who to lift or train.......we're all driven by the same ego, just the manifestation of it is different.

Can we all stop being children in the sandbox please. Or can you guys and gals at least agree to disagree and quit this fueding that hurts the purpose of this board. Which is to trade and dispense useful information.

Okay I believe that, I do something very close to that when bulking that is. Do you maintain that level of RIPPEDNESS, when bulking and eating like that? Do you do cardio or HIIT training at all during your bulking or at anytime?

statements like these reflect a basic lack of understanding of diet, particularly individuality.

posts kinda remindin me of NCLifter now that i think about it.

Also, thaibox, I have a somewhat unrelated question for you, being that you have extensive NHB/MMA knowledge:

Though there are some pretty lean fighters (Frank Shamrock), why don't some of the fighters try and get leaner/more muscular? I ask this for weight class reasons. Wouldn't rather be 200 @ 8% BF than 12%? This means more muscle/more strength. The only time BF affects your stamina is at the ultra low ranges (under 6) right?

Maybe when lifting weights, but I figure having a better to power weight ratio would be a big advantage in most sports.

Like what? If I am stronger (at the given sport) at a better and more comfortable weight...does it really matter what you weigh?

There is a reason why the Heavies put up the biggest numbers...
