id argue cloudkicker has more knowledge than you in regards to anything scientific

cloud is just saying there is weak, if any evidence to support your claim

and ur saying even though there is no evidence u still think its possible

okay?

everything is possible... well sort of .... but in a scientific community, use some evidence to support your claim or its pretty much not worth hearing about


You wouldn't really be able to judge from posting on a forum, but you might be right as I haven't done any biology or chemistry in the last 3.5 years.

The ACTN3 gene has been linked with a high incidence of fast twitch muscle fibers in people that don't carry the mutated version, and that version is more likely to occur in people of West African descent.

So you saying there is "no evidence" isn't true either. cloudkicker is being a pseudo-intellectual for dismissing a hypothesis which some genetic evidence does exist for and which fits in with the proportion of top level athletes with those genetics, in addition to it not being disprovable.

jews were slaves long before blacks

egypt anyone?

so why are jewish people not ripped as black people?


big thing could be just how they look

u know lighting helps make people look more ripped

and bodybuilders put tanning lotion on before a show to make their muscles look more defined and such.

i think the color of skin can make some1 look more jacked


Just because it's in the bible doesn't mean it's true LOL. In fact, that means it's probably not. In this case, it's not. No evidence the Israelites ever lived in ancient Egypt.

Should I wear sunscreen even if I'm just in my house all day?


idk

i have not checked what study cloud is referring to, and yeah im just taking him on his word

and i admit, i have not looked up ANY info at all about this, but im just more inclined to believe what cloud says based on previous posts, either one of u could be right, or wrong, or just trolling, who knows

but ur post asking about sunscreen also leads me away from your posts lol

gotta ask, why did u think to ask that lol ? :rolleyes: not trying to be rude to any1, no reason to be, in case this is taken offensively

Some people are genetic freaks. Plain and simple. Maybe one day they will discover a mutation in white/black or whatever that gives them an edge in being physical/growing faster.

its called a myostatin mutation. no black people do not inherently possess this malformed protein. this is the only gene mutation i know that truly influences muscle mass

yes there are certainly mutations in genes that promote muscle growth but they are not specific to blacks over whites. small changes to fast fiber percentage DO NOT mean that black people's skeletal muscle will just explode with growth. you guys really overestimate the hypertrophic potential of fast fibers compared to slow. my triceps have like 20-40 percent more fast fiber than my calves, why do my triceps not just erupt with mass? also dro keeps bringing up running sports and fast twitch fibers do not permit for high aerobi function

I'm not claiming to know anything like you do. I took Advanced Placement anatomy & phys. Classes in HS that counted towards college. That was.. 7 years ago, lol. I don't even remember basic protein synthesis and how the ATP process works, just the names.

I'm making a broad assumption that, perhaps in the future, they'll find mutations or 'differences' in areas not yet reflected on in great detail.

But, to answer the threads question: physique looks totally achievable natty. My friend who's as big as him, maybe not as cut, definitely didn't use sterrons. Not in his moral compass.

A lot of people forget that superdrol and a bunch of other "steroids" could be bought at GNC a few years back. I have a friend who took sdrol and he's big now, but hasn't gotten any bigger since.

I was going to do medicine at university but forgot my ID for the ukcat test and couldn't sit it, even though I got the grades in my a levels. Ended up doing maths and economics instead at the same university I was going to study medicine at.

By the way that's not a stupid question, UVA rays penetrate through windows, so you are exposed to uv radiation in your house. A better phrasing of the question might have been 'will I be exposed to enough UVA rays in my house to make it worthwhile using sunscreen?' Not to mention if you go back like a page from that point instead of cherrypicking quotes, you'd realise I was asking about sunscreen in the context of me getting laser surgery, for which my doctor recommended wearing sunscreen.

Funny cause last time you told us what you did you said you got through your first year medicine and decided to switch. You should really nail down just one story.
