    Put these 4 building blocks of BBing in order..

    Put the following four building blocks of BBing in order. Start with the most critical:

    A.) Diet
    B.) Training
    C.) Genetics
    D.)Gear


    Here are my thoughts: GENETICS, Diet, Training, Gear.

    I still feel that the guy with outstanding genetics and a medicore diet will look better then the guy with average genetics and an immaculate diet.

    Just my .02

    I am curious to see what everyone else thinks.

    I've got a buddy who has never juiced and is just stupid strong and big. Sits at about 14% bf and eats once a day usually taco bell.

    I eat like a mad man and train my ass off and can't keep up.

    So I'd have to agree with your ordering.

IMO

    The diet/training order is debatable both ways. Your diet may not being going anywhere without training but without proper diet your training can only get you so far.

    I agree but I put diet before training in this because he said building blocks of "body building"

    I would agree with genetics first. I remember a few years back I worked with this guy who was just jacked. His back was amazing, very thick, and legs like a young white bo jackson. I asked someone what he does and they said "no he's a lazy ****. He used to play baseball in high school but thats it"

    While I agree genetics are needed to go far in bodybuilding..... I have also seen some guys who aren't genetically gifted do well. These are the guys who run higher dosages, their diets are perfect, and they work their asses off.

    Will they ever be Mr. O? Probably not..... but they still look better than 95% of people out there.....

    Good genentics piss me off like nothing else does. I remember this black guy came into my campus gym back in April. He was probably around 6'1" 210lbs at 5 or 6% bf. The whole gym just stopped and looked at him. I am thinking to myself, "wow this god damn freak show must have been training since was 14 non stop."

    Well, he goes over to the flat bench and puts on 185lbs. Does 4 reps and drops it on himself while trying to get the 5th one up. I run over, grab it off of him. He responds with "thank you, I was really trying to get that 5th one up, I really wanna hit 225 on the bench within the next few months....

    I asked him about his diet, he responds with "Well I stopped eating McDonalds last week because summer is around the corner."

    So lets recap here, 6'1", 205lbs+, at 6% bf, who eats fast food daily and can't even bench 225lbs, yet looks better than 95% of us here......Fvck my life....Amen

    yeah I'd agree with the majority, genetics are SO important, and frustrating for those of us that have just average ones.

    A) masturbate
    B) take a dump
    C) prepare for gym
    D) find a reason not to go

    * Some people will combine A+B which is good time management.
