Big man. Big appetite.
 
Genetic limitations.

I was about to make this thread discussing this issue.
 
ehh Cain is pretty ripped he has a slight stomach but if you saw him in person I promise you his arms are buff as hell and his legs would likely shock you.

To answer the question its because he is a man and doesn't need to be a cheat like Jones and cut down to beat on people he has a clear size advantage over so he doesn't need to watch what he eats to much.

Save yourself from looking like an idiot and don't make that thread.

Genetics is not his issue.
 
the type of food you eat, all are able to develop muscles, some easier than others

The South American Indians are different from the North American Indians. The Mohawks for example are lean and tall. The South American Indians can go for long periods without food so the survivals are the ones who can store a lot of fat when they do get food to get ready for the lean times. They also reflect this in their diet, so you can say it's the cultural thing: the diet is calorie rich.

Trouble is when these people adopt to American diet, there is no lean periods and the food is readily available. Btw, Mexicans in Mexico are pretty lean on the average. The more Indian genes, the more propensity to get fat.

Mexico is now rated above the US for overweight people. That fact makes your post appear to be complete and utter BS.

who cares about "rated"? bullshit. I've lived in Mexico. I've lived in the US. I saw more fat Mexicans in the US than in Mexico.
 
Wow and for the genetics part. That is complete bs. Sure genetics play a role if you are initially fat or skinny, but if a pro athlete wanted to be shredded he could, regardless of genetics.

Many Mexicans = lower income. There is a VERY strong correlation between obesity and low socioeconomic status.

not a geographic thing though. Btw, you can probably read up on it in physical anthropology books (this field of study is now phased out in favor of molecular anthropology, the liberal pressure on science to say "we're all the same".

But the books are out there. They actually have 4-5 groupings of Native Americans. If I remember correctly, one is in Eskimo, one is in Canada, one is in Western America, ect.. and so on.

The group in Brazil is actually different from the group in Mexico.... very detailed study with pictures to back them up.

Kind of like how differant types of Asians or even Caucasians look differant. Makes sense.
 
His genes aren't such that he shows his muscularity.
 
A little body fat serves its purpose. The fighters who we most often see gassing are usually very muscular and ripped.
 
Cardio =/= Shredded physique. I am in very good shape cardio wise right now, but not shredded cause I enjoy beer and cheeseburgers. Having said that, being lighter does make cardio easier on your, but Cain probably doesn't give a shit the way he looks. My guess is that he enjoys mama's home cooking and then goes and trains his ass off.
