The DBZ debate is actually easier to settle than you nerds think. Goku had retard strength. Vegeta was a thinker, and quite critical of his performances at that. Goku just showed up without any real expectations (or knowledge) of his own limits. Vegeta had a shrew for a wife as well which holds even the best men back.
What I am getting at is it's like any sport, if you think too much about it you stumble, drop the ball, miss the tackle, etc. The most gifted athletes all look like they aren't even trying. Someone who goes to the gym and never really learns how to push themselves will always think they are maxing out when in fact their max could be much higher if they let go of their inhibitions and really learned how much pain the body can work through instead of quitting or putting up a mental block the first time things get tough. Think about it, why do you feel the need to get pumped up before PRs? It's because you've set up a mental block. Breaking a PR should be like walking, you just do it without any fanfare because it's an old PR and not worthy of being a stopping point for you anymore. I will never forget the day when the fattest bastard at my gym, he probably weighed three hundred pounds, actually managed to bench 315 for the first time. He literally was running around high fiving 180 pound dudes who could lift more than him. It was pathetic.
Then again you're forgetting about a little thing called genetics which make Shaq taller than all of you and certain people stronger than average given no previous history of weightlifting.

So in essence no matter how hard he train there is no way Vegeta could close the gap between himself and someone who had a infinate "ki" reserve. In his own word " Born with a natural tallent far beyond my own, no amount of training could have closed the gap between us."

^^^^this is right just rewatched the series recently(had nothing better to do)goku also couldnt lose because other people depended on him so this pushed him to keep fighting even when he had nothing left in him. he had no care for his own life only the life of others so he was willing to put everything on the line and not hold back

Lol @ Goku having retard strength.
Man, I haven't seen that show since like 9th grade. I liked Vegeta, because he never gave up, and had more work ethic.

My favorite part about DBZ was the gravity training. I know I can't teleport... or can I?
