Question: Will bodybuilding combined with aerobic and agility training produce better results than bodybuilding alone?


Question Description:
I've seen bodybuilders with muscles that look disgustingly big (the type that have veins popping out; they look like they can barely move because their muscles are so big).I've also seen people who have very large muscles, but they look better overall (they look like they're very athletic and that bodybuilding isn't their life).My question is: Does aerobic, agility, and endurance training combined with bodybuilding produce those better results? I.e. Will a bodybuilder that has muscles with better slow-twitch and fast-twitch capabilities look sexier to the opposite sex than a bodybuilder who bench presses 400 and squats 600 but can't run at all?

Answer#1: Professional bodybuilders don't lift weights to look appealing. They do it because that is what they love to do. If someone wanted to look hot, they would combine weight lifting with cardio to get the bast out of their body. Bodybuilders aren't athletes, they are monsters. A little skinny guy of 100 pounds could beat the stuffing out of a professional bodybuilder because of what you said, they can barely move. Its great to have huge muscles, but too big is just stupid.
