athlete forum. - Bodybuilding Discussion on Bodybuilding.net Site Suggestion/Feedback

MONSTAFACE · 11-29-2007, 07:24 AM

In my opinion athletes have different workouts from just pure lifters. whether it is football, basketball, hockey. they also do a lot more running. its even different in football as in to where a lot of strength coaches make their athletes run before they lift. i think there should be a section for athletes to ask questions and trade info

Interesting idea and you are totally right.

MONSTAFACE · 11-29-2007, 11:15 AM

thanks. i mean i know the name of the site is bodybuilding.net, but i figured they have a whole bunch of different stuff on here. why not some athlete specific stuff

good call.

This isn't a bad idea but my only concern is that the forum wouldn't be too active. We already have a few new forums that don't get many posts in it so I think for now I will hold off on splitting the training forum. Might be something to consider in a few months though if I notice a lot more sports related questions.

Sleazy: while it's true that there aren't presently a lot of sports-related questions, that could just be because most people here aren't aware that there may be others who are also athletes outside of BBing/PLing. I know I've sometimes just figured I wouldn't bother asking a question because I didn't there were any other wrestlers here. Just a thought.

	TALO's Sig:"But when do you actually grow? Well, we don't grow in the gym. In the gym, we destroy. We tear down the body. We only grow when we are recovering. That's right, I said recovery. I see it all the time--people beating themselves up in the gym and not seeing results. They don't understand that hitting the weights hard is only a small part of growing or even cutting down. I could train the same all year round and get big or get ripped just by eating different and taking different supplements"
