Forgotten World Bodybuilding Federation

Let’s take a look back at the world bodybuilding federation created by WWE Boss Vince McMahon. When Vince came up with the idea and started the bodybuilding federation it created lot of waves in the bodybuilding community specially the IFBB. It was founded by Vince in 1990 and had many stars signing up to join the federation. It was rumored to have Tom Platz in top position and change the way the bodybuilding federation functioned. It promised good pay and takes the sport to levels through glitz and glamour. It had 13 athletes and many more to join; it had Aaron baker, Mike Christian, David Dearth, Berry DeMey, Danny Padilla, Mike Quinn, Eddie Robinson, Gary Strydom, and Troy Zuccolotto.

But due to low buy rate the show was taken off the air and fine the federation winded up. I just wonder what would have happened if the WBF would have flourished. It sure was flamboyant and entertaining.

Please let know who what do you think would have happened, if WBF were to be here today. Have you heard or watched any of the shows created by WBF? Please let me know your thoughts on this topic.

Travel life and places in India

Travel life and places, there are many beautiful places to see in northern India. Lot of palaces and forts and temples, had traveled and marveled at the combination of rustic yet beautiful and rich places too. They both co-exist. This is the few best shots which I took on my journey, there is lot to explore and lot to capture. The city is bustling with markets and shops with wide varieties of sweets.

Do women respond to exercise differently than men?

Well exercises are the same and there is no difference in them, a squat is squat be it for a guy or a girl. Squat is going to hit and build the quad muscle irrespective of who is doing it same goes for barbell curls or any other exercise. But the way women respond to exercise does differ when compared to a man. It’s because of the hormonal differences and lack of same levels of testosterone compared to man. That’s one of the main reasons why women will not build muscle to the same degree as that of a man.

It’s better for women to train on high volume rather than lifting heavy weights which can be strenuous and cause injury.  They should focus more on toning their muscle and overall health rather than taking their bodies to low levels body fat which is unhealthy and dangerous.

Ronda Rousey vs. Holly Holm

Ronda Rousey vs. Holly Holm was one of the major upsets in ufc fight history. Well it’s a fight and anything can happen in a fight! One punch can change the outcome of the fight and we have seen it over and over again if were to look back at the history of fighting be it mixed martial arts or boxing. But why did this fight receive such a huge interest and have so much of mixed reaction and even celebrities like Donald trump and lady gaga jumping the bandwagon and twitting on social media. Was it hype it created? Or was it genuine love for the sport of mixed martial arts?

Yes, we all saw it Holly holm defeated Ronda as if she was an amateur and put a beating that she will remember for rest of her carrier. Ronda is an excellent athlete and a good martial artist, but she definitely wasn’t invincible. I think even Ronda got carried away with the hype that she is invincible and can’t be defeated. The reason for the fight to be considered the biggest upset was because of the fashion in which Ronda had dominated her past opponents and dispatched them at her will.

We forgot that Holly holm was a former boxing champion and an excellent athlete unlike anyone in the ufc’s women’s division. To be very fair Ronda is no match to the striking skills possessed by Holly Holm and that was very evident in the fight. Its Ronda’s ego, which also contributed to her loss against Holly Holm. Holly Holm was very professional and respectful to Ronda before and after fight which shows true personality. Most important thing in martial arts is to be humble and respect the game. That’s the big difference between a martial artist and a brawler. Ronda looked like a brawler and Holly a true martial artist!

IP Man Is Back

IP Man Is Back, Donnie Yen reprises his Role as the legendary martial arts fighter and Teacher IP Man! The first part of IP Man was a master peace and this 3 installment with Donnie yen has legendary boxer iron Mike Tyson playing his opponent.

Tyson has made quite a few movies now, be it hangover series or his own documentary movie. This looks like a very interesting movie, not only because of the casting but also is more like boxing vs. Wing chun.  Fight Choreography in both IP Man I and II were incredible, so IP Man is worth a watch!
