The Wheel is Forever
Wasn't talking to you... was trying to bait an answer out of a potential alexkumar... did you ever experience him?

I was being sarcastic on the Tendulkar count, and was deliberately misspelling Yuvaraj as he failed to spell it correctly in any of his incarnations over a considerable period of time, and the caps were deliberate impersination.
Doh.

its a know fact that vegeterians have less strength then meat eaters, thats all i am saying.
That's absolute bull****, it is however a known fact that vegeterians are generally a more healthy lot than omnivores.

It's about protein, and the only reason beef helps is because it's high in protein. If (like me) you're a vegeterian, you can substitute (and exceed) protein doses contained in meat by taking protein supplements. You can be as strong as you want, regardless of your diet. And in any case, working-out does an infinate amount more.

then why are most indians tiny and week? and why are pakistanis who are meat eaters generally stronger. i am indian myself and for half of my life i was a vegeterian but when i started eating meat especially red meat i definatly started feeling stronger with more strength.

Where's Jack's broom when you need it?

Anyway, I'd say it would be a combination of genetics, the lack of the protein supplements that Richard spoke of, and a general over-exaggerated stereotypical myth...

When you were a vegetarian, did you take the protein supplements that Richard spoke of?

Does that include Yuvaraj?
Haha, I think it's just a coincidence, really. Go and read some of his non-beef posts and you'll see that it isn't Alex. Or even if it is, he's improved out of sight as a member and is no longer.. well.. annoying.

As I say in SD - I've read a good few and there's certainly nothing untoward, but... well, best discussed in SD.

he is a meat eater, indian team has several meat eaters like Tendulaker, zaheer khan, irfan pathan, also kumble i think. and btw i am not saying that all vegeterians are weak but generally meat eaters are stronger.
