American is the greediest and most vain country in the world, body building suits them perfectly.

muh politics xD kai green got robbed!!

>>35036416

several reasons:

>low cost of food
>lots of black people, who have better genetics for building muscle (this is debatable)
>america has a ''bigger is better'' culture and history of violence in general
>Arnold
>sports that require only agility and cardio (ie: soccer) are not popular, and sports that require raw strenght (football, baseball) are the most popular

Pretty sure that's bullshit senpai.
>>
>>35039985

as I said it's debatable, but after meeting/talking to several natty black people that lift, I truely believe some of them are genetically gifted.

Because Americans accept gay culture. Even Japan views bodybuilders or men with muscles associated with gay.

No, it's not.
Ethnicity refers to cultural, lingual and ancestral ties between a group of people.
Race refers to the physical attributes of said people.
You have white americans and black americans.
Ethnicity=American, Race= White or Black .

At this point it also has become a cultural thing.
I could see the Soviet Union, if it had survived in present day, having an equally large phenomenon with Olimpic lifters and powerlifters in lieu of bodybuilders.

Black dudes have better genetics for BBing (small frame, narrow waist with comparatively wide shoulders, better insertions) on average than other races. I don't think they actually build muscle faster though.
>>
Most steroids are made in the USA

>>35046849

Fuck you. You don't know who Tom Platz is? Extra fuck you, no wonder you don't like that photo you weak little bitch. Probably complain when your gym partner yells "One more fucking rep!" and pushes the bar back out onto your chest. "w-why do you have to be so aggressive? I just want to relax and have a nice workout."

You make me fucking sick you sorry excuse for wasted nucleic acid.

This to be honest familiar

Blacks just have better bodybuilding physique. That being said (if you haven't already heard this 747392929 times) whites dominate in terms of strength. Whether or not they build muscle at the same speed natty is debatable though, but put a nignog on roids and a white dude on roids and the white dude will win in terms of strength. It's just slow and fast twitch muscles to be honest.

Bodybuilding is a cultural thing in America. Many bodybuilders double up as actors, lots of them in wrestilng (Very popular in the US), one of them entered politics.

And yes steroid usage is more widespread in the Us than in my country. Piss off relentless nitwit.
>>
>>35040018
Actually, Latinos have the highest test, Blacks and Whites are about equal, Blacks have slightly less test and slightly more estrogen. Look up some actual studies.

Americans are mutts.

Doesn't matter how big you are when you can't lift for shit. Why is America so terrible at lifting?

Yeah, that would piss me off. I don't need to be yelled at to be motivated. I have a set rep range that I train within, and if someone were arbitrarily trying to alter or change that because they are excited I wouldn't want to work out with them.

What are the studies? Also isn't Latino an ethnicity i.e. you get black Hispanics, European hispanics, mestizos, and everything in between? Also how are the races defined since American blacks contain substantial European and Native American admixture?
>>
Americans have to either lift or be fat from my experience. There's no in between or really any skinny athletic types because of American food and how much you guys eat. Hence lifting being so big. Continental Europeans at least can be skinny and athletic still.
>>
>>35053065
baaaaaahahaha you're a fag. like a total fag.

''come on bro, one more!''
''I have a set rep range that I train within, and if someone were arbitrarily trying to alter or change that because they are excited I wouldn't want to work out with them.''

Americans are Europeans. Remember that

because top bodybuilders are similiar to landwhales in terms of ugliness,unhealthiness, hence murica #1
>>
>>35036416
300 million people and it is more popular sport in States than in Europe. So more people start to do it.

Dorian Yates, Samir Bannout, Franco Columbu, Arnold Schwarzenegger, and Sergio Oliva are non-Americans who held Mr. Olympia titles.

Americans have dominated in the past three decades with a brief interruption by Dorian Yates.

Other countries don't win those comps because they simply don't have men under 60kg.
