Wilt's Tall Tales

[Deuce Bigalow]

Your body starts going down hill at 40, not in your 30s.

[bwink23]

osteopenia occurs in like your late 50s and 60s you moron

just stfu you have no idea how the body develops ... you are technically still "growing" in your early 20s ....

those explosive movements are related with youth and not so much on strength

I know more than you do and that's obvious...you can still be strong in your late 20's...after that your testosterone dips...but to say "you get stronger as you age" is ridiculous.

LOL.... ....WOW....do me a favor and GROW UP...."Testosterone loss in men is a gradual process. Testosterone decline starts around age 30, and may drop 1% to 3 % per year depending on genetics and lifestyle. That means that men can sustain a 20% drop in testosterone by age 50, and a 50% drop by age 80. Each man may experience the symptoms of a decline in testosterone differently depending on what his normal was at his hormonal peak. Often the symptoms are ignored or rationalized away until the resultant decreased functioning becomes a way of life."

CALL ME WHEN YOU TURN 35, and tell me you have the same energy, strength and explosiveness you did when you were 18...
That is assuming you will be lifting weights when your 18. I started when i was 15.

Tell that to all the NBA player's that never made it to 40. I wonder what KG or Tim Duncan has to say about that.

testosterone is highest in your late teenage years

are you strongest then??????

come on dude thats not how it works nor is that how the body develops ... these initial early testosterone decreases don't have that much of an impact on strength until later ...

Strength wise. Not athletically.

[bwink23]

again bwink that is how most men develop like

AGAIN....for the slow person...strength and size are NOT the same.

Of course people have a tendency to get bigger as they age...that's common sense...to say they "get stronger" is flat-out retarded.....

[CavaliersFTW]

Strength can be one of the last things to leave a man but as long as you don't confuse that with power (plus the health of your joints/etc), which all fades rather quickly. Power is strength times acceleration, which might be what bwink is referring too. You won't be doing things like leaping to your max vert or showing off youthful explosiveness into your early 30's, sometimes even your late 20's - to the same degree that you could when you were 21-25.

I started lifting weights when i was 15...my max bench by the time i was 18 was 245 pounds weighing 165....

I reached my near-high school mass index just 2 years ago...and was lifting naturally for 6 straight months...my max was 220...so you tell me.....

Are you alive? Do you not see people around you?

look at the average 20s year old guys and compare them to the 30 year olds
Common sense

AGAIN...your very slow....SIZE does not equal strength.

[Deuce Bigalow]

AGAIN...your very slow....SIZE does not equal strength.

most of the time it does
most 200 pound men are stronger than 160-180 pound men.

[HighFlyer23]

no a 120 lb dude who works out is more likely to be stronger than a more massive 250 lb guy who works out

no correlation between size and strength there ... more mas doesn't mean more strength ... skinny 200 lb jordan was FAR stronger than 220 lb Jordan who was beasting people in the post
