I do and find Bob Chicks practical tips/insight some of the better ones out there. I liked his last one where he talks about how "balls to the walls" psycho training may NOT be the smartest way to bodybuild in the long run. I remember legend Lee Haney always saying something similar.
I also took his advice on reg barbell squats and benches and now avoid them.
At age 50 those kind of movements are NOT worth the risk of serious injury.
If I can simply maintain the mass I have and get leaner , I will be thrilled.

People still read magazines?

LOL, very funny

Ya why would we want to discuss actual training tips from a pro in a FLEX column. A bodybuilding board is so much better served with threads about "who owned who" in some pissing contest

Is the gel spiked hair style required for an impressive crab shot?
What would the verdict be on this in BOBservations.

Go away, Howard. I am trying to ungay your thread. Do you know how much hard work it takes to exorcise the gay out of your threads?

You're missing the point. There are no real "tips" in those mags. They don't really discuss how they got their physiques (drugs and their real diets). Every month, it's the same bullshit. Eat 1.5 grams of protein per body weight. You've read one mag, you've read them all. They NEVER give credit to the drugs.

If you like reading the same bullshit every month, good for you. Hell, you probably believe the "pros" really write columns, and really use minimal amounts of drugs. You choose to believe what you want, as this is your fairy tale world. Funny thing is, you start thread about being conflicted about the drug use, but continue to support this facade.

I've never had beef with you Howard, in fact, I've defended you in the past. But sometimes I wonder, if maybe you need medication....

Trust me after all these years around BB , I know all too well about the crazy aspects of the sport.
However, I do find Bob Chicks tips pretty valulable and practicle. I am old fart and still enjoy the printed page and glossy pics in my hand.
