How accurate would you say this pic is?

[TLR Is Mental Poison]

Its accurate but fukk all that strongman shyt

 

[semtex]

Only difference between the two is diet

 

[Hersh]

seems right.

 

[infamous212]

this whole weight lifting thing depends on your goals.

its innaccurate the first guy either is on cell tech or being diet conscious or both

while the the guy on bottom is dreamer bulking and paying no attention to what he takes in

power lifters get so high off their numbers and disregard dieting when if they gave smart dieting a try they would both look the same its just a matter of being disciplined and one has it and one doesnt

 

[Spliff]

Semantics asides, it's accurate.

Guy on top is chasing an appearance.

Guy on bottom is chasing numbers for specific lifts/events.

There will be some overlap.

Second pic says "Thick waists because of developed core muscles"

So they're saying that the bodybuilder in the first pic doesn't have a developed core? The reason for why your waist is thick is because there's a THICK LAYER OF FAT COVERING IT.

And it's pretty much the most generalized way to look at it. You can have functional strength and still have a slim waist and look sculpted.

^ yea seems inaccurate tyson had plenty of functional strength

exactly

power lifters just dont care about diet

i wouldnt say that but if anything tyson is closer to the top and not the bottom and he has actual strength cut defined muscles arent just for show imo

nnn-no i'm not

 

[Turbulent]

seems a little oversimplified.

dude on top is probably still pretty strong although not as strong as the dude on the bottom.

also it doesn't have to be a either/or thing. looking like the top picture while being close to the second strength wise is probably very difficult but not impossible.

like someone else said, not everyone has the same goals and there are no "right" and "wrong" goals.
