Well done, on taking a quote about natural selection and using that to falsely believe that bodybuilding is what the reference was to here. This is almost like Bible thumpers using quotes from the Bible to prove that we will all end up in hell.
The natural selection theory is to do with a much bigger view of things for the species as a whole, it has absolutely nothing to do with the mindset one has for bodybuilding. The desirable traits is in reference to survival mechanisms and adaptations that an organism will develop to...survive.
If this applied so much to bodybuilding as you claim it to be, then this would be the first thing everybody would be seeing and reading about. Just before gym class, and every P.T session, everyone would be having a lesson on natural selection, ever wonder why we don't?
Natural selection is not an argument for "I can't become a champion bodybuilder because my genetics don't allow me to" - it's more like a pitiful misguided excuse to use the sciences in an inappropriate manner without having even studied it (you obviously haven't since you decided to quote something without even explaining it yourself)
Please enlighten me on why every single human being on this planet has the capability and genetics to become a world class bodybuilder.
"I can't become a champion bodybuilder because my genetics don't allow me to"
To be honest mate, you can't seem to stick to the point in a topic without talking about penises and manly characteristics, I question your ability to stick to something with a 100% mindset without getting distracted by the black man working out next to you.
OK, all jokes aside - what is this "therapy" you speak of?
I'm well aware of Darwin and natural selection. I'm also going to lean to the side that tells me that you're probably not well aware of natural selection and Darwin's theories since that theory is wholly irrelevant in this discussion regarding bodybuilding and having a proper MINDSET.
You obviously don't agree with this statement.
So, prove it wrong then...
saying that 'natural selection' plays a role in an activity such as bodybuiding is wrong. Very wrong. I wont indulge in discussion, since it's so silly it's not worth it.
this thread is no longer worth reading.
Thats a bit of an unguided statement.. The alphamale would of been able to survive in the world longer then the beta.
No fear, better hormone Profile, faster , stronger... Naturally in today's society that person would excel in sports over the Xbox geek.
This is the point i was trying to make. Thankyou n00bs!!!!
Compare bodybuilders from 50-60 years ago to today. Keep it fair natural vs natural, and today's have much better physiques.
Since most people here are guaranteed to be losers from the beginning because they don't want to win, hopefully there are a few here that still believe they can achieve what they want to. Luckily the internet is not flooded completely with prophets of doom:
Overcoming A Negative Mindset in Bodybuilding
A good book I recommend for what you can achieve with a proper mindset in terms of human physical performance is Keith Fennell's Warrior Training book.
In the end, attempting to be the best is better than not attempting at all because you have bad genetics. Might as well start and get somewhere rather than get nowhere at all.
Genetics are an obstacle, it is not a stop sign.
Lee Priest, 15-16.

That was pretty funny.
Everyone appears to be arguing for the same thing, just in their own little way. Others don't understand that way and think it's something different.
This is entertaining.
genetic potential? or is it Mental potential. i think most people would cop out mentally before there genetic potential is reached, id fall into that category.
