Anyone know how Khabib is so strong?

I

Thread is dumb but lol at Rogan's head (assuming not Dana's) looking like another bicep they way I used to draw them in grade school

as for the question this dude has huge biceps and shit, those don't help you manhandle a person very much. Khabib has probably never in his weight trained for aesthetics.

hang on, you are talking about the mongols. are they turkic ?

so your claiming the turkic and caucasian people were responsible for the romans, arabs and persian empires collapsing.

if you had said the byzantine empire, sure....

Mongols are part of the Turkic group and look at their success using large scale invasion at rapid force. I’m not talking about the recent Mongol invasion but thousands of years ago where Nomadic Turkic empires like Huns, Scythians and the likes were around who bullied, intimidated and invaded neighboring Empires in Asia and Europe, and caused a huge migration shift that caused the split between Western and Eastern Roman empire.

Having a Nomadic lifestyle breeds toughness and produce warriors like the North Caucasus today.

There’s a reason why there’s multiple huge ancient walls, barriers and forts in China, Dagestan, Iran and the Darial Gorge between Russia and Georgia that protects Central Europe. They were being built to protect themselves from the barbarians (hence Turkic regions being surrounded by walls).

So, if they couldn’t be stopped in the past then it’s genetics and they’re predispositioned to be stronger than others.

im not disputing any kind of nomadic toughness although i think nomadic warriors typically are kinda overrated.

i think it comes down to far far more reasons why certain armies or tribal groups have been successful. and it certainly isnt toughness.

russia defeated all those turkic groups centuries ago...

its funny you mention the north caucus region and turkic people as one. im not sure if it posted on here by a certain member, but those nth regions of the caucus republics were nearly wiped out by various turkic groups..

If you look at his body, he looks very average compared to some other monsters like Abdel Trujilio and Gleison Tibau but he literally manhandles everyone. Even Rockhold said he's never grappled with a 155lb guy as strong as Khabib. He doesn't even look like he takes supplements let alone any peds. How the fuck is he so damn strong?

There is corn fed farmer strength, then there is wrestle a bear in the mountains from age 4strength

Core strength from wrestling since he was in kindergarden in a badass no-pussies-(or pussy)-allowed environment.

Killer technique too

this forum is literally 89% Americans that don't get what that does to your freestyle wrestling

The pics TS listed like Abel Trujillo, he has beach muscles, I reckon he ain't that strong, he is probably quite fast, but I doubt he has much strength, not compared to the farmers..

He seems like the poster boy for it, big arms/sholders but showing a lot of rib cage.

I would imagine its especially true when your talking about clinch wrestling as well were takedowns might could in many different fashions potentially using strength in many different body areas.

Eh his walk around weight hes a beast.

And hes a got a pretty thick back

Looks don't matter. At all. Daniel Cormier has had a dad bod his entire career, he tossed a mammoth sized Josh Barnett around like a sack of potatoes, survived a direct hit from Rumble, and KO'd Stipe.

beach muscles - how do they work. Compare the difference in physiques between average body builder & power lifter
