Errr, I don't understand.....

Did you find it useful that someone told you not to lift the weight too slow or too fast? Doesn't common sense dictate this? So, why do people waste money attending these seminars?

For seminars and such, it really depends on the who is the presenter. An individual trying out olympic lifting and certain types of powerlifting, strongman and sports training would benefit from a few seminars or classes with a quality coach. As for the standard bodybuilding "do your bench presses and eat your chicken breast, and now I'll pose for you" type stuff? Leave it for the children and the schmoes. 99% of training and diet was figured out when Grimek was still in his posing trunks, the rest is just drug munipulation.

What is there really "new" to learn. Train hard, eat, sleep, repeat. The shit ain't rocket science. I wouldn't pay a penny to attend a "seminar."

So what happened to you? I've take dumps better than you.

I remember attending a seminar by Dorian Yates and Milos Sarcev in Birmingham about seven or eight years ago. Ernie Taylor was billed as the guest poser. It was decent enough but Milos was droning on about nutrition for rather too long, trying to make it sound a lot more scientific than it really was and you could tell some people were getting restless. A few people got cheeky and started asking drug questions which he fended off.

Dorian then came up on stageand asked if anyone else had any more questions and it fell pretty silent. He then asked if everyone wanted to see Ernie Taylor guest pose and a big cheer rang out. Dorian looked genuinely disgusted that people just were there to see a man in a thong guest posing.

I went to Milos' free seminar a few years ago. It was interesting to hear different philosophies on training/nutrition. 

Alot of people have different opinions on how it's all done so it's cool to check it out and possibly pick something up.

lots of people have different opinions on loads of stuff..but only very few are actually correct.

why pay to hear a bunch of opinions?

just find out from those qualified, do the research yourself, then apply what you learnt.

unless pros tell you what exactly they use, how much, and show proof of what it does (beyond chance and beyond subjective opinion), then seminars are a joke.

the best works are done by nutritionists, kinesiologists, sports scientists and physiologists. The only one of that crew who needs to do seminars would be the nutritionist..the others earn way too much to waste their time on a bunch of joe publics.

most of the stuff they are working on the public wouldnt comprehend and talking about topics that they would would be like death by slow deprivation of oxygen.

Oh shit, time for Joe to take his BP meds.

When Milos was haven't his pissing contest with gh15 and mentioned his seminars was on YouTube and I was impressed by it. I learned a few things which all of us can do.

But Coach would crush your fat ass.

Even worse, 28 and still an idiot.

LOL! Coming from the latest GetBig whipping boy.

Take that vibrating dildo out of your ass and change your diaper already. It's getting a bit rancid.

You cant learn training technic from pros.

But, you can learn their training phylosophy and that gives you a huge influence.
