[papucho]

"You don't even have to worry about diet and training with steroids"

that's the best....by far
LMFAO!!

-----Leg Presses are more effective than Squats because you can lift more weight----

I told him.... "hmm... I never do leg presses and I have much better legs than you, maybe you should give squats a chance?" he tells me they are bad for your back and cause arthritis.

This coming from a guy who just watched me squat 405 for a set of 15 rock bottom, while he had 22 plates on the leg press doing something similar to a knee spasm where the knees barely unlock and then return to the locked postion. What a fucking asshole.

I am still amazed that so many people are stuiped enough to think this. My legs are twice as big as any of the other regulars at my school's weightroom and yet these dumb assholes still argue with me when i say that ATF squats are far better than their 90 degree bullshit.

Oh my god, i love the leg press guys. 5 plates on each side, slight leg bend and back up. Even though squat can hurt your back, good form will prevent it, and i havent used a machine yet that replicates it perfectly.

Worst gym advice...

That I only need 30 grams of protein/day to put on mass.

Yes you can put on mass with that ammount of protein.

Some big muscle head came up to me when I was using the thigh master and told me that I would have to start lifting weights to build muscle!

He then gave me some stupid movie "Pumping Iron" or something like that!

What a bone head!

LOL you had me going there bro nice one

Not a piece of advice but the most annoying thing is when people say "I'd be like that if i took steroids" absolute ignorance.

Oh, and the 180lbs fat fucks that come in my gym and tell me that they're going on holiday in 3 weeks and want to look good, followed by "i just want to lose the fat, gain some muscle" then pointing at the picture of shawn ray "I dont want to look like that though", Yeah like youll ever look like that. Idiots.

i remember this one from one i started:
"when you bench, bounce the weight up off your chest, you can bench a lot that way. that's why i'm so strong"

this kid always had a bruise along his chest. and he thought the pain was from getting bigger.

Muscletech products are more effective than steroids. Hey, it worked for Kovacs!

 

[freakazoid]

there is no such thing as overtraining
