mass or ripped

[saluu]

okay we are having a poll here me and the guy at the gym were having a major argument he was a fan of pure muscle mass and says mass is everything doesnt matter if you have a sixpack long as you have a big muscles. I argued and pointed at a guy that was 150 and i swear ripped shredded and think ripped looks better. So he took the biggest guy in the gym who was about 320 massive and put him beside the guy that was 150 shreeded and the 320 guy made him look like a little kid.

but i still argued with him that you gotta be able to see abs and ripped is good like sylvestor stallone style . he was just into mass like lou ferrigno the incredible hulk.

now the question i have in this poll if you had great genetic , great diet and could be shredded at 5 percent bodyfat around 150 pds or you could be 320 pds of massive muscle and fat what would you be . i mean not fat but muscle bound at around 16 percent. i repeat the poll should read 16 percent bodyfat not 12 percent bodyfat thanks saluu i hope this changes things in the poll im quite surprised people are choosing mass over cut

It's all up to personal opinion. I'll refer to a quote hooker made..."I'd rather stay at single digit body fat % and get laid year round".

[LACBodybuilder]

I'd probably like a happy medium to be honest with you. I know it isn't really an option, but about 210lbs and 8-10% bodyfat for me would be great. I am 5'9" so 210 looks pretty impressive on my frame.

[Juddman]

Massive while I'm young, cut up in my late 20's.

[Alex2]

I wouldn't go for 4% BF since I'm not a body builder but I definitely prefer to be shredded at about 8-10% BF rather than big and fat.

[saluu]

yeah i guess what the point of having big muscles if you cant see them

[TDS]

but lou aint big and fat, he's just plain ol' HUGE

[Basilus]

I'm not lifting to do shows or get freakishly huge. I'm in this to be happy with my body and get laid. I like Hookers quote.

Your poll says 320 at 12%bf.... I'd definately take that route, but I like were I'm at right now (236 at 5,9 9%bf)

Exactly! There are some huge guys that go to my gym, but they are so fat and bloated 24/7 that it doesn't matter. THey look like they might as well just eat BigMacs all day. Which they probably do.

Those are some impressive stats bro.

Those are some impressive stats bro.

Thanks.

[Nutz56]

Those are some impressive stats bro.

i agree... i'd rather be shredded than huge. i'm about 5'9-5'10 194 with about 14-15%bf. i'd rather be around 180-185 with like 11% bf tho... i'd take that over the 15% i'm carryin right now anyday

[Nutz56]

saluu, ur poll is misleading. i think u're meaning like 320 with like, 20% bf... kuz 12% isn't really all that much, especially on a 320 lb guy. u should change the bf% & leave out lou ferrigno's name in the second option...and 150 lbs is tiny. lol

Dude, all of your retarted threads have nothing to do with the Forum that they are under! This is under the Steroid Questions Forum, and has pretty much nothing to do with steroids . All of your threads are just like this.

[saluu]

okay im 250 right now and 20 percent bodyfat how much pds do i have to lose to get to 10 percent bodyfat i dont wanna get shreeded just a little ripped but still stay massive help how many pds do i have lose if i go 200 i would have 0 percent bodyfat so help me . how much weight do i have to lose thanks

[slob]

if u keep the same muscle mass and u drop 10% bf u should be 225 pounds @ 10%bf

[Mesomorphyl]

I would be a part of the "300" club, even if your bf% went from 12% all the way to 18%; kinda use to being around that percentage anyway...

[Juggernaut]

320@14% is freakin shredded in my book. 320@26% is more like what you might be thinking saluu. Still even that's not real bad....no abs that's for sure but you'll notice good size to the muscles.

I hang around 250@24% for the most part but have cut down to 214 and I just didn't feel normal...kinda wired but that's just the way I felt. And women love plenty of big guys like me just like they like the shredded bros.....I'd venture to guess women fell more secure around a bigger guy as opposed to a less massive guy. To each his on I guess.

I'd rather be heavy than ripped from a personal aspect. Put a shirt on a guy with mass and a guy that's ripped.....who gets noticed? I'd say the guy with mass....yuo can't see ripped through clothes.

[Diesel]

300+ baby!

As long as my bf stays in the 16-20% range, I'm happy.

[BodyMechanic]

I would take 320 and 12% over 150 and 5% any day, i just couldn't stand being that small.

[co2boi]

Yeah, there's a big gap. I would just prefer to weigh as much as I could with 7-9% bf. Some people just want to be big, but I haven't met a girl yet that prefers guts over 6-packs

[Dude-Man]

i choose 230 at 8%

[lollipops]

the 4 percent body fat is unreal, but I think the bulk is better

[Hed]

This poll should read 185-190lbs, single digit body fat

-or-

300lbs, 17%+ body fat



Ill choose the 190lbs single digit body fat, and get laid, rather than look like a blob where people cant tell you work out, but put up impressive weight.

[taiboxa]

if i ever weigh under 200lbs shoot me kuz @ 0% body fat i will still be over 200

[irish bulldog]

i prefer the cut look ,when i first started training i wanted the bulk look.

[Nutz56]

i'm curious as to why this is still in the steroid forum??

[Juggernaut]

i prefer the cut look ,when i first started training i wanted the bulk look.

That's what skinny people say when they can't bulk. hahahaha

[legobricks]

ooohhhh if its 190-195 single digit!!!! ill take that, on my frame, that would be HUGE!! 5'7! god i love being my height!

[legobricks]

buuuut since its not, then i would take 300+ at 12-18% body fat. 150 is small fir me, and im 5'7, just imagine what the 6 footers would look like!! FRIGGIN BEAN POLE!!

[legobricks]

all shredded and 150 lbs is something if ur 4 foot tall, but u gotta factor height in as well in your poll

[Nutz56]

all shredded and 150 lbs is something if ur 4 foot tall, but u gotta factor height in as well in your poll

...you could have got all that in one post... you whore!! (yes, i know... i just wanted to post again as well)

[keithquig]

i know, runnin out of things to say,

[AG5678]

interesting thread

[saluu]

salu threads are always interesting i really am shocked the way the poll is going . what is point of having big muscles if you cant see them veins. i have guy at the gym he is a about 170 pds shredded and looks bigger than me . what is good bodyfat percentage to have where you have defenition but look massive as well. any opinion appreciated thanks

[hemidog66]

320 12% bf looks good I betya 6ft4in b a giant

[AVAGO]

Ripped to shredz....

[Nutz56]

yeah, if you were at 320 lbs 12%, you surely wouldn't look all fat and bloated. you're probably thinking of guys who're 320 lbs at like 20-25% bf man (and yes, saluu threads are ALWAYS interesting and entertaining)
