Swartzenegger: "A pump is better than coming (cumming?)..."

[Rowdyboy]

Please help if I'm wrong. I'm embarrassed to say, I'm not sure what he was saying. My interpretation is...

Sometimes pumping iron (bodybuilding) is more fulfilling than sexual orgasm.


Am I in the ballpark?

[usregimechange]

1. that is it

he did say that on national tv. no joke!

[Rowdyboy]

3. Oh, yes, its on film...

KKKan't duck that one. I can't see how California's RepubliKKKans Kan possibly vote for him.

2. If Maria Hadn't Put Her Hand Over His Pig Mouth

it might have gone un-noticed by the middle aged women who were gushing over Arnold. But yes that's what he said.

4. When you are lifting, there comes a point

when you get this rush through the muscles you are working that's called a 'pump.' I think it has to do with blood being diverted to the area as it demands more fuel for the work that body part is doing. The increased blood flow temporarily increases the size of the muscle, making it stronger because of internal leverage, by the way. It feels good, but to call it better than 'cumming' is hyperbole -- it's a mildy pleasant feeling that lasts for maybe 30-45 minutes. Sometimes I didn't even notice it. The bigger your muscles become, though, the stronger the feeling is.

5. something like that

I lift 5 days a week now doing a different bodypart on different days. The "pump" does feel good. After an intense workout nothing feels better than going home and laying on the couch.

But I can't believe he said that on national TV. It just shows that Arnold is not made for politics. He is a great bodybuilder but not a great politician.

8. He said it first in 'Pumping Iron'

something like 25 years ago. He was saying it this time to try to cover up for some other things he said during that time that were even less flattering -- along the lines of, 'Look how many other stupid exaggerations I made back then.'

6. Thanks for 'splaining it..!

I thought he was talking about 'pumping' something else!

7. Gee, what a class act! Worthy of a Kennedy!

Man, what a low-brow sack of crap this guy is.

He's just a life support system for a cock. He's probably as dumb as Jesse Ventura. And that's pretty fucking DUMB.

[Piperay]

12. Dumber...

I think he is even dumber than Ventura. :freak:

[Dirk39]

9. And after he's fully inflated....

please handle me a needle...
I'm just ashamed that this idiot speaks the same language as me, at least he tried.
Give me a needle now!
Proud to be a german for one second in my life, 'cause he is from austria...

10. Thank you guys...

I bought a set of weights in 1970 when I was 16. Think I used them around 1/4 hour total. Believe me, it shows!

[Poisonskin23]

11. That's a great quote.

I've seen that movie. very funny..

He's like "I'm coming and coming all the time."

13. in front ofhis wife, even

Maria should have kicked him in the balls for saying on national TV, essentially, that he gets more pleasure in the gym than in his marriage bed.

[Old and In the Way]

14. Now that he came..........

can he just go...

[Dover]

15. ABC News showed the Oprah clip. Jennings cracks me up.

It showed the little scene where Arnold said 'it' and Maria threw her hand over his mouth.

Jennings commentary was that Arnold had hoped to clear up the whole issue on Oprah and ended up digging the hole deeper.
He's the same guy he was back in the good ol' days.

Considering both their pasts, did Arnold think it was wise to get Rob Lowe involved in his campaign?

At any rate, he's not governor material. He's barely acting material. And I think both vocations will suffer for his candidacy.

16. Didn't see the Oprah interview but on Jimmy Kimmel tonight

they had something called Audience Theatre and members of the audience did a reenactment of the Oprah interview. After following the script all the way to "cumming" they allowed the players to ad lib. LOL "Ahnold" suggested that they have a "real" party and Oprah and Maria started making out, then "Ahnold" jumped on Oprah. It was pretty good.

Kimmel regularly gives der Terminator hell if he's had a press conference or event.
