Jeez, pal! First off, at least learn how to form and diagram a sentence! And also, if he is gay, what the hell does it matter to you? And why assume it? You want him? Well, you not going to get him with that dumb comment. Leave him alone....he's doing what he loves, and he is moving some damn heavy weights to boot..what have you done lately? LOL!

ps I also have my BSEE, so i am not stupid either. Like this guy I believe both are important.

I train using more of a hybrid style, mainly: strongman, powerlifting, bodybuilding, metabolic resistance training, and gymnastics. But I have to say as a man, I love lifting heavy crap up. Primal, sure, manly, YES. A lot of “men” don’t like the connection between strength and being a man, but that is because most “men” these days are fat, weak, and spineless. There are more important things then strength when it comes to being a man, BUT being strong should not be left out of the equation.

@seanjessify On occasion I work out with a guy who is into crossfit. As far as pure conditioning he beats me every time, BUT I can do everything he does. But I also training using strongman methodologies, which he does not. He can not move the weight I can or even do half the things I can do. My point: I can do what crossfits do; most of them can not do what I do. Also most >170lb CFers also train strongman/powerlifting to get strength. No WOD that I have seen include a pure strength component.

LoL don't know why everyone is getting all excited about some of the so called bad comments, they must have not competed in sports/strongman. these so called bad comments are very tame compared to what you will hear from your fellow competitors, they'll say all kinds of things to throw you off, be warned, that's WHY THEY ARE CALLED COMPETITORS, ITS DOG EAT DOG OUT THERE.

@DudeThatsSic you must not know what crossfit is all about, many people do it. even humongous guys

@Nikon05 people have a greater chance of injuring themself with bad thoughts, and unhealthy mental ideas, if someone can't see their own crap and let it get the best of them, they will fail regardless of what they do, facing yourself is the hardest thing to do, unless someone faces their own personal demons they will get fucked.

@sasugakirin thats because people from so called developed nation are taught to be fake as plastic, and have a bullshit personality, what is personality? a person, drama, theater show that a person tries to be, instead of trying to be themself. God doesn't give a fuck if a person is 1000 ft tall or 1 ft tall, God gave them the same brain and intellect, the power and energy of the TRUTH is much stronger than the power and energy of the fake.

@Nikon05 all t.v. media stuff is personality based artificial mask of fakeness, we are all human beings, it doesn't matter if a person is 100 ft tall and weighs 10,000 pounds or if someone is 3 ft tall and weighs 80 pounds, a human being has the same size brain, and does whatever they feel like doing, the species is still same.
