peanut Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 Tracy McGrady once told a story about Kobe. One offseason, apparently at a hotel, McGrady told Kobe that he was going to go work out. Kobe responded by acting like he was crazy. “What are you going to work out for? We’re in the offseason. You don’t need to work out.” McGrady eventually accepted that idea, went back to his room, changed, and relaxed for a bit. But after a short while he got antsy and decided to go lift. And once he got in the weight room, he saw Kobe lifting. 4 2 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Truzzcat Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 it would appear that he lifted all throughout college but has not been lifting since thus he has decided that his physique Is not the result of lifting but in fact just wrestling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His brother in the comments is suggesting it's superior genetics. I believe Herschel Walker and Bo Jackson also claimed to never lift weights. I'm not sure I believe any of them.

Got news for you. Yazdani is stronger than Aaron Brooks. The question is endurance. I guarantee you that Yazdani will bull Brooks around the mat in the first minute or two.

There are definitely genetic anomalies, but I don't think you can be a current day collegiate athlete and get away with not lifting even if you're Aaron brooks, I just don't think the coaches would allow it.
