Jorra, are you one of those English majors or scientists?

Actually, yes. I am a scientist. If you can't understand the concept of weight and density, which you should have learned in middle school physics, you are obviously not ever going to understand this. If you don't understand the complete similarity between the words weight and heavy, which you should have learned in elementary school English, you are especially not going to get this.

Jorra, you are a scientist and you claim that although two things weigh the same, one can't be heavier than the next.

You can't tell me how come some people can pick up a 10lb pack of copying paper and not pick up a 10lb dumbbell.

Do you even lift weights?

O MY LANTA I think this whole "debate" debocle has started over from the very beginning!

Tell me please, what exactly makes something heavy?

There is no way this is not an elaborate trolling event. It just has to be.

Do you even lift weights?

Yes, I claim that because it's correct. Not even science can tell me why you don't understand that.

The mind over matter hypothesis is absolutely correct. Your own perceptions of the dumbbell and ream of paper affect how you perceive their weight. You know they weigh they same, only the idea that one is a dumbbell makes it harder for you to lift. You perception is that dumbbells are heavy and you can't lift them, therefore you can't. You don't perceive paper to be heavy, so you don't struggle with it.

Yes, I lift weights. I also lift reams of paper. I have no trouble with either, especially when they have the same weight.

The definition of how heavy something is, is a result of the force of gravity pulling on matter. Weight, on the other hand, is a measure of mass.

Force=(mass) x (acceleration)


So using the 10 lbs or muscle to 10 lbs of fat argument...

Pounds is a measure of mass. Last I checked, we are on Earth. Therefore acceleration is 9.80665 meters/second squared (or gravity). So next: to solve for force (or how heavy an object appears on Earth) we input into our equation.

If you input 10 lbs of muscle into the equation to determine how heavy something is (force), you get this:
Force=(10) x (9.80665)

If you input 10 lbs of fat into the equation, you get this:
Force=(10) x (9.80665)

Both equations will yield 98.0665 lb-meters/second squared.

Therefore 10 pounds of muscle is just as heavy as 10 pounds of fat and vice versa. :drinker:


So we can choose to put our trust in Sir Isaac Newton or accept that maybe you have just discovered a new type of physics. I'm not sure...

Women should never lift anything heavier than a 5 pound dumbbell because it will make them 'bulky.' Sigh...

i questioned the bulky arms thing the other day and some chick tried to tell me that i should be lifting 2 lb weights because 10 lb is way too heavy for me.

Anyone who can pick up a 10lb pack of copying paper can also pick up a 10 lb dumbbell.

Both weigh 10 lbs.

Neither one is heavier than the other, as the are both the same weight.

The dumbbell is more dense than the copy paper.

Any questions?

Maybe next you can give us your take on net calories. That should be a new thread though because we'll need at least 20 more pages.

Bry_all01, I didn't quote you, because I don't cuss or like to see other people cuss.

There's a reason why some people can pick up a 10lb pack of copying paper and not a 10lb weight. I will not give the answer away.
