breh asks "why do Asians / White ppl dominate Olympic weightlifting + Strongman events"

[Turbulent]

I watched a vid attempting to explain this once, dont have it on hand and don't know how accurate it is.

From what i understand, part of it is cultural. Meaning typically they are the ones into tgat sport. But it said patt of it is ankle and wrist size as well as types of muscle fibers in joints which is typically different. Basically the muscle fiber in black people's tendons is typically "springier" and smaller which makes us more athletic. There's is bigger and less springy. Again, not sure how accurate.

Stop listening to cacs on anything that requires them to justify their own genetic inferiority.

I just looked up his lifting stats and he might have legit been one of the strongest men in the world while he was playing.

His 705 lbs bench press max is insane.


Funny enough the current world record for bench press is 770 lbs and that record is held by a breh named Julius Maddox

Bruh these are niche sports theres no money in this shyt

 

[Originalman]

Let them be giving out 100 mill contracts and 300 mill shoe deals.

Brothas would be dominating the sport.

In the end a discriminated racially and financially group of people ain't trying to go into a sport or entertainment that ain't paying.

shyt like asking why black folks don't dominate bowling and shuffle board..

Just googled this dude. Why was he so strong and fast. That shyt aint normal.

 

[Premeditated]

pretty simple

there's no money in that shyt

Niger Congo people and Somoans are the strongest people in the world

I have no reason why Central Asians and Eastern Europeans want to do that shyt. But if they happy, I'm happy

 

[filial_piety]

probably because the Olympic is an amateur sport....so no pro athletes (current or former) are allowed..except for the Dream Team

if pro football players were allowed, i'm sure there's a few linemen who'd medal

 

[How Sway?]

Didnt Mark Henry break weightlifting records in highschool?

Those wwe checks were too much to pass up though.

 

[PHamm]

Far as Olympics go China are known cheaters

And the USA doesn't cheat ? you're probably convinced Carl Lewis was clean all those years

U right

 

[philmonroe]

anybody knowledgeable in this field?

interesting vid so far, dude not c00ning, but im not sure about the broscience / natural selection stuff he talkin. could it be like soccer, where we are just not interested in those sports (yet)

Why do y'all dudes overuse c00ning?

Exactly.
And as soon as Vince came calling, he stopped competing because gold medals can't feed your family.
Not much left in endorsements after the companies finish giving out to track stars, swimmers, and gymnasts.

 

[Dallas' 4 Eva]

NFL, NBA, Boxing, hell to a lesser extent MLB as well. There are other sports which you make way more money than powerlifting.

 

[Luck]

We’re not into that

How many nikkas, who would even give fukk about that shyt at a young enough age to learn to start, have money and time to focus on that...?

Ain’t nobody fukking with us on the strength, athletics nor aesthetics side of this physical shyt and it’s not up for debate...
