[QUOTE="takethepoints, post: 373752, member: 265"] Yep. I used to lift weights Olympic style as a hobby. (I was never very good at it, but I got very strong.) The rule for "heavy athletics", as it is called, is that you don't really get strong enough to be a world class competitor until you are in your early 30's. That's when you begin to lose the definition of youth and your muscles begin to bulk up instead. You start to miss speed, but your strength goes through the roof. This helps explain the differences between college and pro football. [/QUOTE]
