Muscle fitness for the elderly
There are two kinds of people who are very similar, but different in essence. They are ordinary bodybuilders and professional heavyweight bodybuilders. The starting point of the two is roughly the same, both of which are to train a muscular figure with larger circumference and better figure, so the training methods (strength training) they use are exactly the same. So many people think that fitness and bodybuilding are the same thing, but they are not. Fitness and bodybuilding are not in the same "stage" and cannot be confused.

? At present, the development of fitness industry is more and more vigorous. What we can see is that ordinary bodybuilders can also become muscular men through some efforts, and this muscular figure is very difficult for ordinary people, but there is still a big gap with those bodybuilders who won the ranking in bodybuilding competitions. Then, compared with those heavyweight bodybuilding champions, what are the differences and differences between the physical quality and muscles of ordinary bodybuilding muscular men?

First, the gap between muscle circumference and shape.

When it comes to muscular men, many people think of a man with broad shoulders and thin waist and angular muscles, but this figure is still quite rare in the current domestic fitness circle. I've been wandering around the gym for many years, and I've only seen a figure that can barely compete once, so it's very rare for an ordinary bodybuilder to practice muscle circumference. Heavyweight bodybuilding champions can crush most bodybuilding muscle men in muscle circumference first, followed by muscle separation. Especially during the near competition, the sebum rate of bodybuilding champions can be brushed below 10%, or even lower, so that muscles can be more clearly presented to the audience and judges. Therefore, the muscle difference between the two is not a level at all.

Second, the gap of comprehensive sports ability.

It is said that the muscular man who works out is a model opera, but he has lost his flexibility. However, when an ordinary muscular man meets a real bodybuilder champion, his physical flexibility is highlighted, because the bodybuilder's excessive muscles really affect the overall flexibility. Therefore, it is difficult to see heavyweight bodybuilders in those sports that require high flexibility and agility. And the more muscle content, the more or less it will cause a certain burden on the heart. To know whether the heart function is healthy or not often determines the level of comprehensive exercise ability. Therefore, in terms of athletic ability, bodybuilding champions are probably not as good as ordinary muscular men.

Third, the difference of physical quality.

First of all, both of them are stronger than ordinary people. High muscle content means stronger physical fitness (greater strength and stronger immunity), but this is only one-sided. Ordinary bodybuilders are definitely better than ordinary people who never exercise. At the same time, although the muscles of heavyweight bodybuilders are bigger and stronger, their physical fitness may not be as indestructible as his muscles. In order to make the muscle effect more prominent, many heavyweight bodybuilders use drugs to gain muscle at the expense of health, which will break the natural balance of the body and affect the physical quality.

Fitness and muscle training may be a hobby to kill time for many people, but it is his occupation for a professional bodybuilder. Although ordinary fitness muscle men can't walk on stage to show off their muscles and gain health and figure, they are also happy. The heavyweight bodybuilding champion lost some freedom and health while harvesting flowers and applause. In short, there are gains and losses, which is an eternal truth.

Who do you think is the average bodybuilder or bodybuilder champion?
