the right way to train

[b fold the truth]

I gotcha...and agree with you. It takes heavy weights to get anywhere in either of our sports.

I wish that it didn't...I wouldn't hurt so much so often.

When you flex a muscle, not all of the fibers are really contracting. Through certain methods of training you can increase the number of fibers that are flexing each time, thereby giving you greater strength. But by doing so you haven't really gained mass. You've just become more efficient. Max work and dynamic work are two ways of becoming more efficient.

Big ain't strong. Strong is strong.

I would bet my left nut that someone who can squat 495 has bigger legs than someone who can squat 225 and so the debate continues.

Looks like you're gonna lose a nut.


495 guy: 70 fibers and 60 of them fully flex with each contraction

225 guy: 100 fibers and 30 of them fully flex with each contraction


Just to illustrate the point that strength and size are not words that can be used interchangeably.

And I'm not trying to nitpick, I just enjoy being a pain in the ass.

You ever think about lifting weights?

Maybe you would get a better grasp on things if you ACTUALLY lifted...

Clint's just mad because I stole his Lynyrd Skynyrd collection and won't give it back.
