Where do you train?

Thanks for analyzing that to make me look like a douchebag

lol, no one said I was referring specifically to you adrian. Just like pure's post, there is a husband and wife duo in my gym who are "bodybuilders". She claims she won the 2005 NPC Masters Natural in Illinois. Still can't find some record of that event. Anyways, he's a lard ass and she's suppose to be a personal trainer. I sat there one day watching their form while working out and let me say, they have some of the worst fucking form I've ever seen and the weight isn't even severe. It's comical really.

My efforts inside of the gym pay off outside of the gym.

In other words, who cares if I'm lifting 5lb dumbells, as long as I look like I could lift 500 when I leave Always check ur ego at the door

Because who cares what you look like if you can only lift the 5 pounders

just playing devils advocate, but every here commented on douchies that do this, douchies that do that, etc etc.

the funny thing is (and im guilty of this too) is i am sure everyone else is thinking the same things you guys are.

occasionaly i pose in the mirror (who doesnt, i like when my vascularity shows, and the pump is evident), occassionally i do curls in the squat rack, occassionally i lift more weight than i should (but it IS intentional, hence negatives). occassionally i make fun of people in there, and i do get frustrated when people dont turn up the intensity and ask why they dont see results......

but at the end of the day , it all means nothing. the funny thing is, you dont know if that "pussy" not lifting much is wrestler, grappler, boxer, BJJer, etc. just my 2 cents

to my credit, i think i can lift a decent amount for being 6'1, 179

im at 315 bench, 405 stiff dead, 500 squat as my maxes



lifting a lot of weight doesnt make you a bad ass, as some people tend to think. it certainly helps though.

True to that, but if you walk around with an ego like you can lift the heavy ass weights, per Ronnie, you sure as hell better be able to. As for me, I know my amounts aren't shit compared to say that of my training partner. However, for me and my size, I can't complain either.

agreed.

agreed.

The thing I truly love about lifting though is the humbling nature of it, in most cases that is. To know that some times, to go big, you have to go light, to improve your form in some way and then be able to hit the bigger numbers. Definately something I love about the whole process.
