I was watching men's gymnastics last night...

and those guys have some pretty big upper bodies. Too bad they have stick legs. And no i'm not gay. :P

[Bouncer]

Yep, they do. They are all in great shape.

Bodyweight isometerics rule. of course none of them have joints by age 30. :D

Working in a gymnastics facility I see what those guys go through to develope their skills, not bodies, and it is very impressive! These guys come in for 6-8 hours a day and work hard on developing their since of balance on their HANDS, so you can imagine that builds alot of upper body! Granted by the time they turn 30 their knees and back will be shot but that is the price for a dream, the dream of being an Olympian!

I like watching the men's strength rotations like pommel horse and rings. Don't care too much for the vault and floor exercises though.

I love the gymnastics!!! I've been watching everynight till midnight to see all of it. I teach gymnastics to girls... and I coach a Level IV team.

I am head of maintenance! I fix the equipment when needed, order new equipment when needed, change lights and ballasts, fix plumbing, paint new themes on the walls for our kinder-gym and preschool gym! Move equipment around, fix the flooring and runways! Also work in the office, answering phones, do paperwork! I know more about this place than my supervisor but since she has a degree in whatever she is in charge! Level IV, eh? Sweet!

That one dude for the us team was like broad as fuck, but his v taper went all the way to his ankles. Shoulders and bi's were pretty big, tri's were ok.

This is the dude i'm talking about. He's almost as broad a me but his lower is nonexistent. He did good in the rings. Blaine Wilson messed up and didn't hold his pose for the two count.

[redsquirrel]

Yeah, that guy did really well.

US got silver in that event. First time in like 20 something years.
