    Everybody looks like a snail when compared to an olympic sprinter, but Mike's actually quite fast compared to your average gym bro.

      I actually respect him for not pulling a muscle. Even top sprinters pull hamstrings in an all out sprint. It is even more dangerous for a bodybuilder with a huge hamstring that isn´t used to moving this quickly.

      @olafolafsson2755 3 года назад +13

      @Krazy Guy good assumption because a lot of people admire bodybuilding looks. As a teen I liked the looks too. But when u have played any sports u know that it is hugely unathletic, prone to injury and just unhealthy. I am really not jealous. I actually feel bad for people who still as an adult want to Look like some bodybuilder because the toxic body image has grown into them. When I see any bodybuolder doing Athletic stuff I just cant enjoy it. I fear a biceps or quad tear, a heart attack or just see how unfunctional that shit is.
      If someone performs athleticly or musically I would feel some jealousy... but actually it is more like inspiration because everybody has his own life. I dont get payed to be an athlete, so why bother. If we would get payed to eat perform, sleep and train... we would Look and be like them too.
      Also the assumption of jealousy is a typical narcissistic behaviour.

    All bodybuilders can benefit from sprinting. It sheds fat better than any other exercise, it develops shoulders, core, and the posterior chain as good as anything else, and it can loosen up otherwise tight muscles. And the best part is the testosterone and hgh response is so good that there’s virtually no muscle loss during the process unlike other forms of cardio
