[QUOTE="Kerr, post: 462948, member: 55292"] Hi guys, I know its been a while since i have been last on here, been busy studying for college, working, training and out mountain biking etc :D ... Managed to get some quiet time on here to have a wee look :P ... I want to question forcerugbyfan's comment on not needing by biceps, Have you seen the arms on a sprinter?! :O ... Im sure - Don't quote me on this - That bigger arms give you more momentum to run faster ... So building up all my muscles are going to benefit me are they not? :P ... i know that it all needs to be power based, being able to lift loads won't improve my rugby, HOWEVER! It would make me a weeeeeeeeee bit more intimidating :D ... Also it will put more weight behind me in a tackle and it would benefit me more to be heavy with muscle rather than fat? :) I don't really know ... Im a lifeguard and not a gym instructer or rugby coach so its just a theory :D lol Thanks for all the help guys :D [/QUOTE]
