Okay, as most of us hear bodybuilding is 80% diet. Even most pros would say that. Certainly, I also know how important diet is as well but I honestly believe it's 50/50..
It kind of annoys me when people say that. My only reasoning is this...Without one of the other you have nothing. With a great diet and no lifting you have nothing. With a great routine and no diet you also don't have much. That is why I believe it is 50/50....
And if they're trying to say the amount of time out of the day to me it still doesn't add up..I can easily make and eat all of my 6 meals and only take an hour out of my day.
Just would like to hear others take on the 80/20 because I really don't like saying that...
But to me, if I had to give a true number I would say bodybuilding is 100% knowledge. Which is why I love the sport so much. ANYONE without a physical disability can push and pull some weights. It takes ABSOLUTELY no athleticism what so ever to push some weight off your chest. The sport comes down to knowledge, dedication and hardwork and that is it...Anyone with a little genetics on their side and the knowledge that a top pro has could EASILY stand on a pro stage as long as they work hard and have dedication.
