Germans lead the way in bodybuilding

Austrians are germans as saxons, swabians, bavarians etc

Du bist aus OÖ ich lebe in OÖ. Echt interessant. Dann bist du ja Österreicherin.

The best composers in my book are Austro-Hungarian, Lizst and Shubert.

Salieri did have an impressive roster of pupils: Beethoven, Schubert, Meyerbeer Liszt - and Mozart..

He taught music to Beethoven Schubert Liszt Meyerbeer and Mozart....

At Mozart "time" Vienna and Austria were dominated by Italians in any field of music...

And now.. some austrians say that Italian classical music is not as good as Austrian classical music.. They do not know how to recognize their masters ( Venetians masters )

You don't expect an american kid ( like paleo ) to show interest in culture, history and science .. They just listen to rap music and eat peanuts like monkeys ..

Arnold was not natural, he admitted it


Not to take anything from him.

Steeve Reeves looks natural.

Bodybuilding is all about muscle insertions (muscle bellies). Everyone can put on size nowadays, really. For some it will be harder, sure, but it's doable. But not everyone can have that 3d look. It is known that a mutation in the Myostatin gene increases muscle mass, let's you "repair" and grow muscle faster after training. I don't know if Germans as a population have more mutated myostatin genes or significantly higher testosterone than others (since you claim that they dominate bodybuilding). We would have to look for studies on that. And when it comes to muscle shape I don't think anyone knows which gene causes people to have different muscle insertions.

Bodybuilding is a Science, and Germans are good at stuff like that. You are Lithuanian? I find Lithuanians are very good at Athletics- especially endurance types. I have not seen as many Lithuanian bodybuilders as Germans, but I'm sure there are some. I am a Quarter Lithuanian heritage from my Grandmother's side. I love their music too.
