Yeah. no doubt. I don’t imagine the various Viking tribes got along with each other. Or did they?

Give it time. I’m sure Old Sarge or I will offend someone with hot viking chick pix before the thread gets yanked ;)

Patience Red, Patience!

I'm up for it. Living amongst you civilized types have made my skills rusty.

Plundering and pillaging muslim hordes would be a practical sill to learn.

Body builders eat protein shakes and all kinds of ridiculous supplements and weight train, let muscles rest, then resume weight training.

Point me towards lumberjacks that eat primarily a fish based diet and have significantly increased muscle mass. I call bovine feces.

Working everyday fishing and farming(and raiding in the Summer) from sun up to sun down while eating a fish based diet does not lead to significantly increasing muscle mass.

Well head up to north eastern Canada. You’ll be deluged in something that isn’t bovine feces. Head to the Pacific NW and you’ll find more. They eat fish and meat just like all cultures always have. Heavy on the fish being both are costal.

Big. Big boys.

And there are plenty of athletes not indebted to GNC for their diet. I don’t know how this is news to you. Lots of them simply eat specific diets and skip the science.

I used to travel extensively throughout the Pacific Northwest.

Some eat fish. Salmon is popular.But I have never ever seen an American or Canadian lumberjack eat a PRIMARILY fish based diet like the Medieval Vikings. Like most Canadians and Americans that chose not to have some weird diet they have a very broad based modern diet.

Body builders, that actually compete or look they can compete, used protein shakes and supplements. I don’t know how this can be news to you.

Most do sure. Never said they didn’t. Flex magazine used to to occasional articles featuring VEGETERIAN body builders for God sakes.

I grew up in a family of lumberjacks near the Canadian border. I knew a couple personally that weren’t red meat guys. They ate the crap out of fish as they were avid fisheman. Not small men.

My high school english teacher was regionally famous for his ‘Pike burgers” and he had a gut on him. Samoans are famous for the size of some of their man and women and they aren’t exactly in cattle country.
