Nearly all of them are totally ripped. From what I can see its a genetic disposition to muscle growth and great bone structure..has there been any scientific studys on this?

As a weak white guy Im dead jealous..I wish I was like this!

I disagree, they can attain muscle mass & form ALOT easier and with alot less effort than other ethnicitys. Check it out any fri/sat night at a club and you'd see WAY more ripped A.american guys than whites, on average.

Also look at the NFL..by FAR there is more A.american guys than whites.


Why is that I ask you...

This is rather like the notion that black men all have huge shlongs. Or that they are inherently better at sports. Or any number of such nonsense ideas.

Scientific studies demonstrate that none of these stereotypes are true. The differences between one so-called race and another are so small compared to the differences within any race that they are insignificant.

Biologists generally find all the races to be so similar that they have trouble even finding a line where one race 'ends' and another 'begins'. Many argue that even trying to do so is only an invitation to error and prejudice that is unscientific.

No amount of examples of 'ripped' black people will make your case either, as there can easily be many examples of completely non-athletic ones. It's just that the non-athletic ones don't generally become as famous or hang out in clubs... they stay home and watch TV. Like most completely non-athletic people.

Because we work hard at it early, like in the pre to mid-teen age range. I've read somewhere that black people, or those of African descent does have denser bone structures but I don't think that's completely the case. Look at the Asians, their body fat is relatively low and their muscles are totally ripped. It depends on the body structure, no two bodies are the same. Just find a work out for you and you can look fit as well. But those of European Ancestry are said to have great upperbody strength. Just find a workout that works for you.

Because only the biggest & the strongest Africans were shipped across to the New World to become slaves. It would not have been profitable to ship over average or skinny people as slaves.

If you actually go to Africa, the ratio of muscular back people to skinny black people is the same there as the ration of skinny white guys to athletic white guys over here. Not every black guy in the whole world is strong.

Are you serious? Check out Forrest Whittaker. That guy's not ripped. He is a great actor though. No one is naturally ripped. If you work out you can attain yokes!

Perhaps only the very fit ones show themselves off, or appear on TV and the movies. It would certainly improve your chances of becoming well known.

Yeah, and every white chick is skinny and hour-glass shaped.

Way to go to play on a stereotype.
