When can you name an exercise after yourself?
« on: October 26, 2014, 05:57:28 PM »
You know, like a Meadows row, a Kroc row, or a  Hack squat. Or when do you get to name an exercise with a nationality, such as a Romanian deadlift?

Sissy squats already exist, no need for you to have a second.

Yeah, but that doesn't explain when you can or should name one after yourself.

By the way, Maniacal, are you this confrontational in real life?

Scott curls seemed to have been pulled away from poor Larry in favor of preacher curls.

And who is this Smith guy who made the Smith Press?

Maybe inventing a machine or piece of equipment is an easier way to get your name out there.  Ask Joe Meeko.  He made those great back grip things.

I built most of my mass on BCF upright rows.

Also notice the slight smirk the "spotter" has. He is clearly getting off on this.  :-\

I bought an old copy of John Parillo's book. There were a ton of pics like this.

Shockingly, some of the pics involved women. John looked like he was dry humping them.

arnold was famous for just making up bullshit exercises in the gym and then tell his buddys watch how many people will copy me doing these,sure enough they did do it.i guess they figured arnold had to have some secret exercises to look like that but in reality he did pretty much all the same shit everyone else did,only difference was he trained harder and had better genetics,period

The BBSSchlemiel rear dumbbell in asshole rows that is the only exercise a fagget like you could invent.

most basic exercises we all do today been around for forever imo,like squats,deads,overhead presses ect.only difference is now we got all these hi tech peices of equipment but imo the same stuff has been around forever,the drugs and nutritional scene has gotten very advanced and that accounts for the much larger musculer men and women we now see

I remember a period when any weird exercise or a "new" and improved training system was called Bulgarian.

Arnold said you need at least 4 Mr.Olympia's to name an exercise after yourself.
