When did being soft become acceptable?

[Lustral]

Joon on his shoulder. People being trained in gym moaning so they don't have to/can't lift more. The general malaise of groaning as if you can't take more - when I was younger you never let on injuries, weakness or pain. Broken bones - go on see a doc. Have no legs - struggle to get around gym. Be lazy and do 5 reps with 50kg on leg press and act like you were Joe Peschi at end of Casino bruised to a pulp... not on.

Have people no pride?

Is it a badge of pride to be weak now?

[robcguns]

So true,Weak ass people who want sympathy.

[Kwon_2]

Weak ass people who want symmetry.

[Lustral]

It didn't bother me til I saw people who had paid  a PT in gym and moaned to affect pain so they could stop workout early. So they paid to get trained then let on they were in terrible pain  (something shamful when I was growing up) to ease (negative) what they paid 5- euro for?

[OB1]

it is not acceptable.
it's part of the creeping pussification of mankind.
stay away.

Are you tough...or are you hard hard, which would you rather be?

[Tennisballz]

There have always been weak people.  This is nothing new.  Trendy, perhaps.  But still, not new.

How can you say I am soft when I am the hardest talking G out here...straight out of Green Lanes? 

[nzmusclemonster]

Doctors actually recommend training one side of your body when you have a broken arm etc

[bigmc]

joon hasn't trained for five years

that's the biggest obstacle

he is soft like dough

no steel in him

[Thin Lizzy]

HaHa

I found that analogy impressive, as well

Well done, Lustral.

With regard to the subject, I believe that in the current Politically Correct climate, where everyone is offended by everything, being a pussy has lost its stigma.

Stupid, who in their right mind hands over command, to some knobby military asshat. Only to fight someone else's war.

I would never recognize authority over myself.

Talking is one thing. You have done nothing but whine like a bitch to prove otherwise. HTH.

I dont see many forced reps for ones who say their hungry.

You look at the 70's-80's bodybuilders not all of them but a lot of them. Weather pro or gym rats, they took failure and intensity to the extreme

There were exceptions: Albert Beckles never even went to failure

20 years ago i used to to see forced reps being done on bench, bi's, squats, leg press, lat pulls ect

Weather they were assisted or non assisted weightlifters

Still exists in some gyms but nothing like it used to be

Here`s a clue,none of the fucking little dweebs we see in most gyms to day have no fucking idea how to train.


A lot of pros don`t either.............they just shoot more if progress doesn`t come as fast as they like.

Im of the notion that you should do your own workout, and not have someone else do it for you, i.e., always having a spot. If youre needing a spot too much, then youre lifting too heavy for your body. I mean, why use a spot on a lat pulldown? Seriously? lol.

[BlackMetallic]

The pulldowns were done from the front not the rear

Tom platz comes to mind

20 yrs ago i used to see high school kids working out together

They wanted to get big and would try and outwork/out rep each other

Today i see the same youth on thier sell phones while their partner does a mediocre set
