The vast majority of people lift weights only to look muscular with little or no real practical applications. And if on the occasion your muscles come in handy, it’s nothing compared to the hours weekly spent working out

If you don’t play sports or lift competitively then Olympic lifts are dumb

Also maybe I’m just blessed with good genes but I’ll say it anyway. Hitting the gym hard as frick is more important than all this organic/meal prep/healthy eating shite. You can do that all you want but as long as you keep doing your 40 min machine routine you ain’t going to get the results you want. I hit it HAAARD 5-6 days a week and eat whatever the frick I want and look just as good or better than all these meal prepper. Now if you can do both...well then you got something brother

No way that’s an unpopular opinion. If you asked somebody why they workout pretty much everyone would say “to look good” or to “stay in shape.” Not “because I want to be able to move heavy shite”

If you can’t deadlift it without straps, then you shouldn’t deadlift it.

Like running cardio or any cardio? Cause I can argue that a lot of strong man stuff is pretty taxing in cardio.

Any cardio.

But if you can’t run 3 miles, you probably are not doing enough.

What you eat is less important than how much you eat.

It's an unpopular opinion thread. No major debates.

If you can curl with a 45lb bar and over 135lbs, you can curl in the rack.

Here’s mine: 1 rep maxes are pretty stupid if you’re not a power lifter.
