With his insane cardio, why isnt Cain ripped?

[Ibm]

Likely his diet. Even though he is burning a lot he is also rebuilding it back at the same time with high caloric foods.

 

[Lanshire]

Bodyfat % has more to do with overall caloric intake than it does with how much cardio a person does. You can burn 1,000 calories a day with exercise but if you're eating enough to make up for it you're not going to be dropping a ton of fat.

 

[Tankeray]

too many dos equis

 

[Muppettoker]

It was a racist joke

If he was black, I would have said "KFC"

Your wit knows no bounds

 

[TheeFaulted]

most functionally strong guys aren't "ripped" so to speak. If you look at most strong men competitions those guys usually have decent stamina and are ridiculously strong but never lean.

Never?

One thing I learned in the army is cardio is about 80% mental, its all in how much you push yourself. I knew an NCO who literally looked like he was pregnant and could run a 5 mile like it was nothing and he did it almost daily.

 

[FrodoFraggins]

genetics and he probably doesn't cheat.

 

[Stargazer Rex]

Does he even lift, bro?

 

[Chuckwitdatlook]

I do not think he has the healthiest diet, I am sure he is not eating McDz but he does probably eat lots of carbs.

This is what lazy people tell each other because they don't want to work hard and eat right...

 

[Renzo Machida]

Shape means nothing...

 

[servel20]

probably has a shitty diet

This and probably genetics as well, Tim Sylvia only lost the gut when he was on steroids

I think Tim Sylvia has proven in the years since that he isn't very discriminating with what and how much he eats.

 

[monkey king**]

Too much tortillas. Srs.

heard it was tortas

 

[dvd_collector]

like big country!

 

[o'dubhlaoich]

Who cares? Is this fighting or bodybuilding?

 

[CJrider]

Cardio and fat are not mutually exclusive, Diet and being lean is. Cain has no issues with weight meaning he can eat whatever he wants, whenever he wants, however much he wants, greasy or clean. He can run and roll all fucking day but you can always out eat your training.

 

[Reverse Flash]

He doesn't need to be ripped, he's the HW champ. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

 

[nintey]

Hahahaha, awesome.

But really if it weren't for weight classes you'd probably see most fighter's not completely ripped.

 

[Sac423]

It really isn't being racist. He has a countdown show where he eats a bunch of taco's during camp. I think it was Josh Thomson who even said " how do you eat like that during camp " in the footage lol.

Generalizing Mexican food as Taco Bell though

Cain gets real tacos... but then again I saw on an old countdown that he was eating Rubio's... close enough I guess. :icon_chee
