	There's a reason why most weightlifters in the Olympics don't look as polished as the bodybuilders you see in magazines. The latter don't merely have to build their muscles; they also have to keep fat from hiding them in order to achieve that chiseled look. However, strength is determined by the muscles themselves, ''not'' whether there is fat as well; losing it is mostly a matter of showmanship for bodybuilders. Not to mention that a one hundred pound weight suddenly seems like a lot less when you've been walking around with five hundred pounds of blubber attached to you for your whole life.
