This whole thing is hilarious. I believe (and hope) that ***** is a troll. Because, if he's actually serious, he's straight up ********. Go join a high school physics class and learn about the things you're arguing. Also, learn to type the English language. Your excessive use of "your" in place of "you're" is almost upsetting.

We all know sick is a troll. I just don't understand how he keeps it up. I mean, what keeps him going? He trolls on here, on other forums, I've even found his comments on youtube videos.
He's claimed to have taken all sorts of performance enhancing drugs, he's claimed to be a professional athlete(in a sport that pays much better than cycling, he's accused people of being Greg Lemond, etc..
All the while he keeps that insane grammar going. I just don't get it.

The proverb correlates to the persistence & long journey of achieving ones long-term goals.
I'm being criticized for using a proven technique which is recognized as a fundamental principle for success in various forms of strength training programs including fitness training, weight lifting, high intensity training and physical therapy programs with regards to my own long-term aims & goals via the banana bike, which takes advantage of the progressive overload principal due to 30 banana capacity intake.
Volume is the total number of repetitions multiplied by the resistance (Banana's) used as performed in specific periods of time.
Intensity is the percent value of maximal functional capacity (30), or expressed as percent repetition maximum.
Believe in the unbelievable, but more importantly, believe in the banana.

On a group ride a guy started without eating anything, then at a stop 2 or 3 hrs into the ride he ate 5 or 6 bananas. He felt sick afterwards, puked and had to quit. Later we learned he had eating disorders.

Eating disorders are extremely common in endurance sports. I admit I have used bicycling solely in the pursuit of anorexia and bulimia related goals. A sick person seeking more sickness looks at the amount of calories burned while bicycling/running/endurance sports in general and ends up wasting hours of every day suffering, because they have found the holy grail exercise/punishment/caloric correction.
Have I ever thrown up on a ride due to bulimia? No, riding was for when I couldn't puke. Riding WAS the purging, no fun in it at all, max effort until you pull something or your pass out (which ever comes first) because your FAT look at you everyone is staring at you FATTY IN THE BIKE LANE. I hope your friend who through up the bananas is doing better. No one deserves to have their lives ruined by ED, especially the finer things in it like bicycling.

Obviously a banana-bike is a more Efficient exercise tool.
A rider in good shape might have to flog himself for an hour to get the same workout that the Banana-Man can get much more quickly.
Also, moving heavier loads does build bigger/stronger muscles. A person can curl a two-pound weight 24 hours a day abut will never be as strong or as muscular as the guys who curl their physical max for several reps/several sets .... So Banana-Man might be getting stronger riding his banana than he could get pushing really hard on a lightweight bike. Higher maximum strength for many fewer reps. Overall, maybe much less than the guy on the CF climbing bike flogging it up a 3000-foot climb but ....
It is like comparing a sprinter with a marathon runner with a weightlifter. Maybe there are ways to measure output so each seems equally powerful, or so that any one of them looks stronger than another ... but each is vastly better at his/her specific discipline, regardless what weird measuring methods one could use to prove that each was putting out the same watts, or whatever.
By the way ... Thanks.
We have here people with absolute seriousness trying to argue over the exercise attributes of a giant banana. Dudes ... when you saw that they guy had built a giant rideable banana, did your "This is humor" light not flash?
Not much funnier stuff anywhere on the Internet, i'd wager ... so long as I get to measure how "funny" stuff is.
