i just watched part of BFTO '06 and as i'm watching it i'm thinking to myself, "are you fuccking kidding me?", look i understand the whole continuous tension and stress on the muscle stuff but come on, Jonnie Jackson is the worst, this guy's reps are so damn short on everything he may as well not even be doing it.

Levrone uses text book form on his bench presses and incline presses, don't know about the other lifts.

Probably one thing I will agree with you on.

it's really funny, you should see David Henry's part, this clown does 4 inch barbell curls with 2 plates and some change on each side of the EZ bar, i've never seen anything like it, even Coleman does half reps on all his presses for chest, JOJ claims he can do upright rows with 315 yet he was having a hard time with pulling 135 barely to his lower chest. ::)

Watching Nasser train is still the most astonishing thing I have ever seen. That guy didn't do a single thing right in the gym. Even with all the drugs he took, I still can't believe his style of training built that body. Levrone was good, Dexter is OK, I haven't seen the last three Battle For The Olympia vids so I'm not sure how the current lot are training, but your right, 80 % of the pros I've seen over the last 8 years use shithouse form.

SERGIO!!!!

yeah i know you do Bob, your form was excellent on the War for the Worlds especially on db inclines, those db's came down well below pec level, you obviously came up at a time when the training was considered a lot more important then it is today, when i watch some of these guys train i wonder how they can still walk around and move.

They keep tension on the muscle at all times, while squeezing the contraction, works very well.

Bob is one of the Best Pro`s out there.  He is not an ego lifter, doesn`t pretend to be one, and realizes that one should do what is most efficient and not always is the most difficult.

A lot of people ruined on silly exercises, trying to prove themselves.

I have heard from people that have trained with Phil Heath that he is suprisingly unaware of proper techniques in the gym regarding form and rep execution. So as he gets more experience under his belt...expect to see him get even better that he already is!

I love how people try to argue that a Machine isn`t as good as a free weight.

It makes no sense.

Bob pushes a pair of 125 pound db's for full reps like a pair of babies toys on his WFW video, also does 5 plates per side for deep reps on Hammer Strength flat presses.

When you are on heavy gear you don't need full reps for muscle growth.  Heck, you could grow by simply returning the weights to the racks.

It's all just a means to an end in bodybuilding...free weights, DB's, BB's, machines, rocks tied to a broomstick...

IT DOESN'T MATTER!

what do you know, I actually agree with you on this.

if a guy gets results with a limited range of motion than what's the problem?  I know they're on gear but they know what works for them and that's all that counts.  If someone came to you and said that partial reps were proven to build more mass would you still do full reps?  Of course not.....maybe, just maybe they know what works for them ;D

It's all just a means to an end in bodybuilding...free weights, DB's, BB's, machines, rocks tied to a broomstick...

IT DOESN'T MATTER!

exactly.  you don't get marked down at a show for using partial reps or cybex machines...do you?

Exactly.  Centrifugal Machine and Gravity suit would accomplish the same goal as well.
