Gorilla Muscles

You like Gorillas don't you FS,

It has to do with muscle attachements.

And genetics, we are two different animals, hard to compare apples to oranges.

I went to the Phildelphia zoo recently. there is a male gorilla there who is 900lbs. and they have sign posted saying he has 6% bodyfat. Damn. You can imagine how I almost burst into tears.

simple....eat more bananas.

bwahahahaha

yet another wonderful post on the anabolic forum.

That's natural strength, without training or steroids! This is equivalent to a bench press of roughly 10X their weight. Also, it is commonly noted that gorilla's chests are as wide as five feet. Keep in mind that is the average height of a gorilla as well, so they tend to be very nearly as wide as they are tall.

Now I'm trying to think what a gorilla on test/dbols/halotestin would look like. Probably among the madest animal on earth.

You think a bodybuilder has muscle size similar to a gorilla?

BZZT! WRONG!

Gorillas have enormous muscles. The leverage of the attachments is different, and the psychology of 'too heavy' is non-existent as they have no reason to engage in such abstract thinking.

BTW, for those wondering just how strong a gorilla really is, there are some accounts that give us some insight. I have personally seen a gorilla snap a bike tire with its hands. It was at the San Diego zoo years ago. The gorilla was playing, it seemed, but was also agitated for some unknown reason. It flexed the tire several times before stretching it to the point of breakage. Incidentally, it looked easy.

There is a fairly in depth account of a female chimpanzee executing a one handed pull of 1200 pounds, but I forget where this reference is. A chimp, folks. Not a gorilla.

Gorillas are unbelievably strong. MUCH stronger than the strongest men...by a HUGE factor. In the book "Raw Power, Building Strength and Muscle" (title may be off a touch) it is asserted that a gorilla's strength would allow for a 4000lb bench press.

Nailed it on the head bro. The main reason has to do with muscle attachments. If we had better points of attachmnets we too could be equally as strong lb for lb. It is the simple physics of leverage principles. They also are not small by any means and as someone else said before they are literally as wide as they are tall(in the chest area). What gets me is how they support that muscle mass without any meat. Gorillas are vegitarians! The zoos do give them a protein/grain treat, nuts, and beans but thats it for protein really. They do eat a ton though its not uncommon for the silverback to down 15-20 apples for a snack!

in the beautiful forest in Cameroon and Zambie the african gorilla is mueaured to be 30 times strong as human....get those motherfuckers on high protien diet( they can eat meat but eat 40lbs of leaves a day) and some test and those fuckers would awsome looking.....in some muscle book i saw bull jacked on juice it was cool as fuck

take this to chat, this is stupid as hell.
