haha, when my members demand that i get these new high tec pieces of equipment i say ' i don't remember Arnold using that, and he was better built than all of us are gonna be'
people want shortcuts and something else to do the work for them. that equipment doesnt exist.
I agree with you in spirit but the logic of your argument is skewed.
None of us have Arnold's genetics or iron will drive to train.
That is why Arnold was Arnold regardless of equipment.
But I also agree that no amount of high tech gimmick machines can replace training intensity in the gym.
Thinking a trainer with big bouncey ball and clip board is going to transform your body is the real delusion.
